Chapter 4 Reunion

Author: Su Zhiyi

On the same rainy night, Feast Bell and Guan Gui stood by the window, holding a lantern and looking at the three or five peach trees outside the window.

In June, the peach trees are full of fruits. Guan Gui said with a smile: "When the weather gets better tomorrow, I will pick some and eat them. They look sweet, but I don't know if they are sweet or not."

Mother Xu glared at her, "You know how to eat! Why don't you come over and make the bed!"

Guan Gui secretly stuck out his tongue and was about to go to the bedside when he heard the girl reciting a poem in a low voice: Peach blossoms rained in Lanxi for three days, and carp came to the beach in the middle of the night.

After all, Guan Gui has grown up with the girl and knows a few words. He smiled and said: "The fruits are ripe. Wherever there is a rain of peach blossoms, there are fat carps. Carps are not delicious either."

Feng Ling smiled. She smiled with a hint of gloom, her thin eyebrows shrouded in the moonlight. Guan Gui stopped and praised her despite the angry eyes of Xu’s mother, “Girl, you are so kind.”

, no wonder people say that beauties are more beautiful if you look at them under the moon."

Sure enough, Xu's mother was so angry that she yelled: "No big or small, no dignity or inferiority! Come over and make the bed, or be careful with your head!"

Guan Gui quickly picked up his head and went over, "You chop it, you chop it -"

Mother Xu rolled her eyes and said, "Go, go, go."

The whole room was noisy. The banquet bell started laughing. She smiled and thought of her husband again. She blamed herself.

When the husband taught her the poem "Three days of peach blossom rain in Lanxi, carp come to the beach at midnight", he said he would take her to see the peach blossom rain and catch carp to eat, and she nodded happily.

But when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, the husband said that he was sick and it was cold outside and he could not go out of the yard. He asked her to see it by herself. After reading it, she chose a scene and painted a picture of peach blossom rain and came back to show him. At that time, she could only cry.

I didn't listen to my husband and didn't go.

Now that I think about it, I should have gone. Otherwise, before my husband passed away, even the Peach Blossom Rain that I saw in the painting would have been seen.

She closed the window with tears in her eyes, not daring to show her tears to Mother Xu, otherwise she would be nagged again, so she simply held up a candlelight to look at the bookshelves in the room. The bookshelves were empty, just waiting for her to put them away.

Book.

This was specially bought for her by her aunt. Her aunt really understands her. She likes elegant scenery, with peach trees outside the window. She also likes reading, and there are big bookshelves in the house.

Now all are satisfied.

Guan Gui also felt that Mrs. Ning Guogong was really kind. She touched her hand on the bed and said happily: "Girl, this quilt is so slippery and beautiful. It must be very valuable."

Mother Xu also touched it, smiled from ear to ear, and said to the feast bell: "I think my aunt is really good to you. This is how she is considerate."

What she was most worried about was that Ning Guogong and his wife were not easy to get along with, and that Sheng Yanling would be bullied. Now that she knew that Ruo Feng was really a wonderful person, she was finally relieved.

——So she was only worried about whether the girl's future husband's family would be well. She began to worry again, "Hey, I don't know if I can meet my future uncle. It would be great if I could meet him."

Feast Bell was a little embarrassed, but still said, "Auntie will definitely take me to see her."

Although there are differences between men and women, it doesn't matter if there are elders around.

Xu’s mother: “That’s good, otherwise I would never feel at ease.”

Then he urged: "Go to bed quickly, we have to get up early tomorrow."

Guan Gui blinked at the banquet bell and complained, "She is so verbose!"

Mother Xu glared at her and returned to the wing, asking Guan Gui to sleep with the banquet bell.

When I woke up the next day, the rain had stopped. The rules of Duke Ningguo's mansion were strict, and they had to go to see the old lady in the morning. So Feng Ling followed her aunt, the second young lady, and the fifth girl to Kangshou Hall.

.

Duke Ning Guo and the second young master are going to court, the third young master is still recuperating, and the fourth young master is going to study, so there is no use.

The banquet bell then discovered that the people who came to pay their respects were all women.

After saying hello, the old lady didn't say much, just let them sit for a while and then went back.

The feast bells followed the crowd as they stood up and walked out.

Mrs. Li handed her over to the fifth girl - she was going to take care of things at home with the second young lady. Only then did Feng Ling realize that her aunt and the second young lady were very busy. They held the gift in their hands and wanted to lecture the servants and women.

Go and reconcile the accounts and make gifts to other families.

The fifth girl was accustomed to all this. She was shy, so she brought the feast bell back to her residence. Then they quickly got to play together - they both liked reading very much, and they could pick up the books no matter how complicated or detailed they were.

A sentence or two above.

Sheng Yanling, who loves books, finally found a girl who has the same hobby as her, and she is so grateful. The fifth girl was so excited by her excitement that she immediately shared her collection of orphans and miscellaneous books, and generously offered to lend her

Go back and read.

Feast Bell felt a little ashamed: "My husband also left me books, many of which are unique, but I can't lend them to you. You can only go to my house to read them."

Guan Gui listened and was very anxious - the girl was good at everything else, but she got stubborn when it came to books. Wouldn't it offend others by talking like this?

He quickly added, "Fifth girl, don't be surprised. My girl's husband just passed away, so she cherishes these books very much."

The fifth girl is also a book lover, so she understands this feeling very well, "Okay, I'll go to your house and read it. It won't be damaged."

Feast Bell was ashamed and happy, "The books are all in the cages. I'm going to put some on the bookshelf today. When I finish sorting them, I'll ask you to pick them out."

The fifth girl said: "I have nothing to do, why don't I go and sort out the book with you?"

The two of them became one person, happily kissing each other and going out hand in hand.

Xu's mother clicked her tongue: The little girl's family made friends so quickly.

The yards where the two lived were not far apart, but they had to pass through a small garden. At this time, the sun was already shining, so the fifth girl took the feast bell and walked to the waterside pavilion on the left side of the small garden, "This sun is the most poisonous, don't get sunburned."

Face."

Then they took a detour to the waterside pavilion. After walking a few steps, the fifth girl pulled the feast bell and stopped. She turned sideways and looked toward the small garden from a distance, "It's my third brother."

She asked doubtfully: "Isn't he sick? Why is he in the garden?"

Feng Ling followed her gaze curiously and happened to see the third cousin standing on the cobblestone path not far away. However, because there were flowers and trees in the middle of the road blocking the way, he could only see his tall and tall figure.

, his side face is handsome, his skin is fair, and he has a youthful look, but his face cannot be seen clearly.

As if sensing her gaze, he looked over from afar.

The two of them were standing under the water pavilion, and the other was standing across the pond on the path surrounded by flowers, and they looked at each other. Then, Ning Shuo's eyes were fixed on hers, and he did not move away for a long time.

The fifth girl quickly stepped forward to block the feast bell, and looked at her brother with a somewhat strange expression - the third brother had always known etiquette, how could he be so presumptuous when he saw his cousin from the Sheng family for the first time.

Although she had known her cousin for a short time, she liked her very much and did not want her to misunderstand that her family had no rules. Just as she was about to turn around and explain a few words to her, she saw her looking up at her third brother in a daze.

The fifth girl was worried: Could it be that my cousin was scared to death?

Feast Bell wasn't frightened. She just felt... that her cousin's eyes were very familiar.

As for why it was familiar, she racked her brains but couldn't remember.

I can only salute first, lower my head, and bow Yingying, "My cousin is well."
