The two large flower halls in Xinyuan were filled with guests, most of which were old men and men from the merchant family gathered in the Hui Hall on the east side, while older wives gathered in the Mu Hall on the west side.

The Tang family scattered happily, Xiaoxiao unknowingly left the order, and now there is only a little Dier next to her.

The master and servant came to Mu? The hall, Xiaoxiao wanted to come and see Xizi. Unexpectedly, it was too late and the guests were almost there. The host had already entered the hall to entertain guests.

Although there are plants and trees in Xinyuan, it is still unable to withstand the scorching sun. The grass in the garden is as smoky as smoke in the high temperature, exuding the unique lush atmosphere of late summer plants, accompanied by the fragrance of roses floating in the distance.

On the tiled floor in front of the hall, a familiar figure stood.

Xiaoxiao frowned and looked for a while before walking over: "Big brother? What are you doing here alone?"

Subtext: Oh my god, what are you, a big man, wandering around in front of the women's flower hall?

Tang Lichen was standing alone on the brick floor, lowering his head and concentrating his mind. Changsui was around him as if he had been used to the master's behavior, and was ready to go forward to fan and hand over the water at any time.

Xiaoxiao was puzzled for a moment and asked, "Why is the eldest brother who wants to go to the flower hall to find his sister-in-law? Seeing that there are all female relatives inside, I'm sorry to go in?"

"She was not here, and she had already been in the waterfront with a group of young wives, saying that it was the most enjoyable place to enjoy the dance." Lichen's eyes were not far from the ground, and he waved his hands and greeted and smiled: "Sister, look, the tiles in front of this flower hall were the best, neatly octagonal inlays, and the specially selected rose-colored goose stone paved into a halo of brocade."

Xiaoxiao looked at Lichen with crystal clear eyes, and once again saw the unique observation perspective of Virgo. Unconsciously, he found the point of interest from Lichen's words: "Bada halo? The big brother was talking about Tianhua Jin in the Song Dynasty? I remember that this kind of brocade is derived from the pattern and the various ways of being well-versed."

Tang Lichen looked at his fifth sister: "I didn't expect that Xiaoxiao knew so well about ancient brocade at such a young age. According to ancient books, Bada Shark Brocade began in the Tang Dynasty and was called "Da? Brocade" at that time. It was a very rare thing: there are flowers in brocade and brocade among flowers."

"It seems that the eldest brother has real research on brocade weaving." Xiaoxiao said sincerely, "I remember that my father started his career in brocade weaving, and I was in it all day long. After being influenced by it for a long time, I know some of the fur."

Xiaoxiao looked at the tile of the Bada halo patterned floor tiles under her feet. She often passed by here over the past few days, but she never seriously looked down and admired these exquisite patterns.

For my understanding of these brocade knowledge, I also have to thank my previous experience. The movie "Three Essences of the Late Qing Dynasty" that died before filming was launched, specifically introduced the history of Shu brocade. For this role, I had trained in Shu brocade for half a year and truly rooted in the local experience of life. In addition to operating it myself, I also read a large number of books about Shu brocade and other famous brocade introductions in the library of the silk brocade. Many of the contents in the book are still deeply imprinted in my mind.

Xiao Dier fanned the girl, but it was hot: "The uncle and the girl should go under the sycamore tree, as it will be cooler if the tree shadows are covered."

Tang Lichen waved his hand, "The second master of the Wen family has many famous paintings, and he agreed to appreciate his Mishi Yunshan for me in the morning."

Wen Laoer? Collection of famous paintings? Mishi Yunshan?

Xiaoxiao felt a little dislocation for a moment.

"Sister, why don't you go to the Yingxiei to enjoy the dance? Maybe it's already started now." Tang Lichen said, and then he heard a sound of zither coming slowly from the water. It seemed that the singing and dancing had already started at this time.

Xiaoxiao said, "Panying Sheridu is a young wife, so I don't want them to join in the fun. I heard that there is a small pavilion next to the stage, which is very good to enjoy the dance."

"What my sister said, but the Fuli Water Pavilion?"

"That's right." The little water pavilion called Fu Zi was specially arranged by Xizi for Xiaoxiao Ruicai, so that they can enjoy the dance quietly.

Lichen nodded and reminded: "The brick floor with fragrant grass patterns on the south side of the water pavilion, and the tiles in the southwest corner were particularly untidy."

Whenever the elder brother fully demonstrates the characteristics of Virgo, Xiaoxiao admires his wife Jin Baodi very much. At this moment, he can only smile and say, "Thank you, Big Brother, for reminding me, Xiaoxiao will avoid some things at that time."

Watching Tang Lichen go away, Xiaoxiao then looked for Ruicai around: "I haven't seen anyone from the Wei family for a long time, and I don't know where Ruicai and the sisters went to have free time."

"Is Yingyuan looking for Weirui?" A thin voice sounded.

Xiaoxiao looked back and saw that it was his classmate, named Youqing, a very petite girl.

The girl beside Youqing has a more delicate figure. She probably chose a small girl to make her look so thin.

Youqing smiled and said, "I just saw Mrs. Wei Rui bringing sisters Wei Rui, drinking tea with several wives talking and laughing at Kan Cuiting."

Xiaoxiao instantly realized that drinking tea often has the nature of indirect blind dates, and it is really inconvenient for me to disturb me. People talk about it for life. Thinking of this, he smiled: "Thank you for your reminder. I was about to go to the Fuzishui Pavilion. It is said that it is quieter. Why don't we go together?"

Youqing smiled happily: "I'm just looking for a quiet place too!"

The two of them formed a companion and headed towards the Fushi Water Pavilion.

I walked along the water all the way, and the lake breeze was cooler. Red cabbages grew beside the water, and in the distance were the water lilies in Banpitang, with red and white dotted on the dark green lotus leaves, which was very pleasing to the eye.

"Yingyuan, do you know what the name of the rose with red dots on it on it?" Youqing asked.

"It seems to be called 'Red Yi Xiaoxue'. It is said that the most rare variety is half red and half white." Xiaoxiao shook the fan all the way. At this moment, she was very envious of the thin Youqing, who was so thin. She seemed not afraid of heat at all.

"Lying in red in snow." Youqing said this name gently, as if these four words were magical, and could make people feel fragrant, and it was sweet: "What a sad and beautiful name."

"Because the contrast between red and white is very strong, that kind of rose is very picky, and it will appear abrupt for most people to wear it." Xiaoxiao shrugged, "I dare not wear that easily."

"Think about the name of this rose to make people feel pity." Youqing's voice was not loud, but the water was very quiet, and the sound was clearly heard in Xiaoxiao's ears.

"I don't think that maybe two people were wearing red cloaks and playing in the snow, chasing each other and throwing snowballs, having fun. When I was tired of playing, I simply lay on the snow to rest." Xiaoxiao had imagined such a scene, which was very casual and happy, "This is what I understand as lying on the snow in red."

Youqing smiled scaredly: Why do you throw snowballs at each other? Where can you have fun like this? You are simply two crazy men in red!

It was the first time that Youqing chatted with Yingyuan alone. At this moment, she felt that Yingyuan in front of her was not the same as the Yingyuan she understood. It seemed that everyone had an unknown side.

"How did Youqing think of the 'red clothes lying on the snow'?" Xiaoxiao asked curiously. There was no words along the way. It was rare that girls always liked conversations with this kind of tone. Throughout history, it has been similar.

Youqing was speechless, just looking at the lonely water surface: "I'm afraid I can't think of so many beautiful pictures."

Xiaoxiao: "It may be a good idea to have a sad understanding, which gives the red-clothed lying snow."

In front of me is the Fushi Water Pavilion. At this moment, there is no guest, but there are only two maids wearing light peach-colored plaids and armor, waiting for the guests here.

There was a rockery blocking in front of them, so the few people had to go around the main gate to the south. If it weren't for Tang Lichen's reminder, Xiaoxiao would never have looked at the bricks on the floor in a tidy manner. After the elder brother mentioned it, his eyes could not help but stare at the bricks, especially the so-called untidy northwest corner.

In fact, it is a very beautiful piece of flower tiles, made of wavy vanilla edges with tiles, and in the middle is a begonia-style brick built with goose. Xiaoxiao specially slipped through the grass edges in the northwest corner. He didn't see any irregularity at all. He changed the angle and took a slanted look. It seemed that a tiles were slightly higher than half a centimeter...

Virgos don’t look like naked eyes, they have high-power microscopes.

The maid in the water pavilion had already come out, and Xiaoxiao pulled Youqing up the steps and saw two tables of tea mats in the water pavilion, including fruits, flowers, and fragrant tea and snacks.

The entire water pavilion is covered with stone pillars, and it is leaping into the air on the water, leaning against the railings to see the scenery, the lake breeze is blowing, which is very enjoyable.

The stage is only ten meters away from the Water Pavilion, and the location is slightly lower. Therefore, you can clearly see from the Water Pavilion that every place on the stage is over. A group of dancers wearing golden crowns and jewels walked down the stage and set up the stage in the center of the water. A bridge was connected to the shore. Therefore, the Wen family set up a temporary dance preparation room on the water bank. After the dancers were ready, they walked up the bridge to the stage to perform.

Xiaoxiao turned the booklet in his hand to the page of the dance. Seeing that the first dance was "Overlapping Gold". Because he knew nothing about dance, he asked, "What dance did those gorgeously dressed dancers dance just now?"

Youqing explained on the side: "The "Bodhisattva Man" is also called "Overlap Gold", and there is another name called "Midnight Song". This rose banquet specially named "Overlap Gold", probably to get a good start!"

"Speaking of this, I think "Midnight Song" is better." Therefore, there were not many others, so Xiaoxiao said his feelings.

Youqing looked at the stage in the distance by the railing, unable to see his expression, sighed softly, and recited a passage of "Midnight Song" in a low voice: "The night is long and I can't sleep, so how bright the bright moon is. I want to hear the sound of scattering, and I respond to the promise in the air."

Xiaoxiao felt too sad, so he also said a few words in a teasing tone: "Where does the joy come from? He is very worried. He is not responding to the three calls, so what is the comparison of pine and cypress?"

The music never stopped, and the musicians sat on the side of the stage to play music.

Xiaoxiao squinted his eyes and looked carefully: "This is the first time I have seen Gong Basheng's instrument team. I heard that their music is superb."

"That's true." Youqing's voice was a little lonely.

Xiaoxiao really didn't know what was touching Youqing's thoughts just now. At first, she looked happy and said that when she mentioned that the red clothes were sleeping, she was always in a state of ease.

Before the second dance began, Xiaoxiao walked to the railing and stood beside Youqing: "It's rare to have this banquet, you should be happy."

Youqing's eyes were not sure where they were looking, and he slowly said in a very small voice: "In the winter when I was ten years old, it snowed heavily, and my sister died in the snow. The red clothes and red blood were particularly eye-catching on the white snow."

Xiaoxiao never expected that such a tragic story could be heard at such a joyful rose feast. He didn't know how to persuade Youqing for a moment.
