Bright Moonlit Night

Because Jin's mansion had marriage contracts with the Tao family and the Zhou family, the mansion became more lively as the year approached.The three families of Jin, Zhou, and Tao are quite famous in the capital, and now they are married, and the exchanges of human relations are more frequent than in previous years. Anyone who is related to them and has some dignity will hand over invitations and come to visit.

The women's relatives are constantly receiving receptions every day, and Fu Ming is even more busy. Jin Yi's yamen has no official business. If a man comes to visit, he has to entertain him. This situation is even worse than the days when Jin Yigang was promoted. .It is true that an independent family is not as good as many families united with each other, and Fu Ming has gradually figured out this truth from the relationship between people.He is also a child of a family, and he knows that it is not easy for a family to prosper, and the prosperity and decline of a family is related to the livelihood and future of many people, so he does not blame the choice of the old lady and Jin Yi.But he can understand but not accept it calmly. These days, whenever he sees guests coming to visit on the pretext of being an old friend of the Zhou family, although he treats each other with courtesy, he feels uncomfortable in his heart.Thinking of the future, I often couldn't help frowning and sighing in my heart.

But now, he is still Jin Yi's only one in Jin's mansion. This year is the first year he spent with Jin Yi after entering Jin's mansion, and it may also be the most peaceful and peaceful year from now on. He doesn't want to stay No regrets, so I tried my best to adjust my mentality, so that the sadness between my brows gradually dissipated.Therefore, every time Jin Yi came home and saw Fu Ming, he always smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking at him with gentle and focused eyes, such smiling eyes often moved Jin Yi's heart.

Lanterns were changed, couplets were posted, red plum branches were placed in large porcelain vases in the high hall, pigs were cooked and sheep were sacrificed to worship ancestors, and New Year’s Eve was coming.

The whole family had a reunion dinner and gathered in the old lady's house to watch the new year.

Tao Yang spent a lot of money to hire three female storytellers, but he didn't let them go to his own house, but let the three of them come to Jin's mansion directly.The female gentlemen are the famous gentlemen in the capital in the past few months. They are good-looking, good at playing, playing and singing, and they can read their faces and know how to talk and laugh.With them here, this New Year's Eve observance can be regarded as lively and interesting.After a few raps of the popular book, the old lady felt that it was boring, and her ears were full of noise, so she sent people away again.

The room was cleaned up, and all the rest were family members.

Fu Ming and Ren Lan hadn't seen each other until this time. Seeing that Fu Ming looked happy and in harmony with her elder brother, Ren Lan was relieved; Fu Ming saw that Ren Lan had a good complexion and plump skin I also know that she is in good health physically and mentally, and I feel happy.

Although they are not related by blood, they still regard each other as true brothers and sisters.

In fact, the old lady had already felt remorse in her heart. After her anger subsided, she thought again that although the two of them had a deep affection, they were still curling Qiuyue.So, when the wine was warm and the atmosphere was just right, he said to Fu Ming: "Brother Ming, there is something I need to worry about."

Fu Ming smiled and said, "Madam, please tell me."

The old lady looked at Ren Lan, "Girl Lan is going to get married next year. A woman needs not only the guidance of an old woman like me, but also the guidance of her father and brother. The long-term debt is too long and she is busy with the affairs of the court. Brother Ming, you are the elder brother of Miss Lan, just like Changju. After the new year, Miss Lan will have to pay more attention to you."

Fu Ming was puzzled at first, but after realizing what the old lady meant, he smiled and agreed.Ren Lan also smiled and said: "I also ask Brother Ming to give me more advice."

Sitting in Fu Ming's arms, Zhao Yan also raised his head, and said to Fu Ming: "Daddy, teach me too."

Fu Ming smiled and patted his head, and asked, "Do you memorize all the things I taught you to recite last month?"

"Memorize it by heart!" Zhaoyan said, shaking his head and began to recite:

"The heaven and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is prehistoric. The sun and the moon are full, and the days and nights are arranged. The cold comes and goes, and the autumn harvests and winter hides. The surplus becomes a year, and the law and the sun adjust the sun. The clouds cause rain, and the dew turns into frost..."

Zhaoyan recited for a long time before stopping. The old lady laughed so hard that she almost lost her eyesight, and asked him, "Yan'er can memorize so much, but can he write?"

Zhao Yan nodded and said, "Yes! My father and my aunt taught me how to write."

Fu Mingdao: "Yan'er can read and write quickly."

Jin Yi said: "It's just that sometimes you don't have enough peace of mind, and Ansheng will make a fuss in less than an hour."

Ren Lan smiled and said: "Brother, I heard from several sisters who have children that it is rare for children to be safe. Yan'er can sit upright for half an hour, which is not bad."

The old lady waved at Zhaoyan, "Come on, come to me, my dear, it's so sweet!"

Zhao Yan got off Fu Ming's lap and threw himself into the arms of the old lady. The old lady stroked his face and arms, and said with a smile, "Our Yan'er has grown taller and heavier again, that's great!"

Zhao Yan said with a smile: "You are still the same as last year, you haven't aged at all!"

"Look, these words are sweet, no wonder they are so painful!" said the old lady, "But Grandma is still old, and when Yan'er grows up, she will be even older!"

Even though the old lady said so, she still insisted on vigil when Zhao Yan couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

Fu Ming said to Jin Yi: "The old lady stayed there for a long time last year. I was still worried at that time, but the next day, the old lady was in good spirits."

Jin Yidao: "The old lady has to be strong, and every New Year's Eve, she must cheer up and stay with us until late."

What Jin Yi said, Fu Mingxin, and what Fu Ming didn't say, Fu Ming also knows, probably because Jin's family is small, so the old lady can't go to bed early by herself, leaving a few children alone to watch the old age.

But this year, although the old lady still stays late, it is earlier than in previous years, and the third watch is just over, so she let Qingfeng support her back to her room and fell asleep.

As soon as the old lady left, Ren Lan smiled and said: "It's too hot in this room, I want to go back to my yard to play with the girls, sister Xinyue, please come with me, let's have fun, this night will be just a little bit longer." It's easy!"

Xinyue, who had been speaking very little, nodded and stood up when she heard the words, took Ren Lan by her arm, bid farewell to Jin Yi and Fu Ming and left.The other masters are not here anymore, Jin Bianyi and Fu Ming went back to Fangman Court together.

Although the snow on the road has been swept away, there is still snow on the side of the road that fell a few days ago.The two held hands and walked slowly in the dim light.

In the middle of the night, when the sky was bright and quiet, Jin Yi said to Fu Ming, "Yuan Ye, I will go to the street with you to watch the lights."

Fu Ming replied with a smile: "Okay. It's been a long time since I've seen lanterns on the Lantern Festival, so let's go together when the time comes!"

At the beginning of spring, on the night of the Lantern Festival, a bright moon shines on the willows, and the street lamps illuminate the beautiful makeup.

It's not like a wealthy family parading through the streets, sitting in a BMW fragrant car, and the waiter in front leads the way, with more than enough style but not enough interest, Jin Yi only accompanied Fu Ming, and even the attendants were far away, and the two walked side by side into a crowded place. , Brightly lit place.

Fu Ming looked around, smiled at Jin Yi and said, "This year is different from previous years, look at the strings of long lamps hanging from the branches, it looks like a galaxy pouring down, and the lamp stand over there The ones on it are so small, and they are pieced together to form a picture of the bright moon among the pines, which is also somewhat interesting, and there..."

Following Fu Ming's instructions, Jin Yi looked at them one by one, nodded and said with a smile: "Sure enough, they are all good. Although the patterns of the lights next to them are not very good, the color looks good."

"Well, it's colorful, although it's a bit more gorgeous, it's not tacky."

The two of them shuttled through the crowd, not seeming to see the glances from the blushing girl who came oncoming and passed by, and didn't pick up the silk and silk that fell at their feet whether it was intentional or unintentional. Chai tin.Singing and singing are scattered in the night sky illuminated by moonlight and lights with the east wind. The crowds and long queues of dragon dances are surging like rivers, and the ears and eyes are full of bustle and bustle.They seem to have forgotten a lot when they are in it. They only see the happiness in front of them and remember the people around them.

At some point, their fingers are already intertwined. They are ordinary couples who are quietly hiding in the sea of ​​thousands of people, and they are also the only king and qing who are just passers-by.

As the moon turned westward, they walked from densely populated places to dimly lit places. Under willow trees and beside long rivers, they were also ordinary lovers. They lit a lotus lamp each, and the wicks swayed gently in the breeze, as if expressing their hearts.

When lighting up the lamp, he closed his eyes and made a wish, and Fu Ming silently said:

May there be today every year, and the present every year.

Jin Yi looked at Fu Ming's calm and devout expression, and prayed deeply in his heart:

May you be safe and at ease, and see you every year.

When returning home from the market, although he didn't carry the lantern, he followed him all the way like the moonlight on the water.

In the Fangman courtyard, lamps are hung among the trees, and the shadows of the trees and lamps fall together on the winding path.Jin Yi suddenly remembered that in the early spring of last year, when he returned home from the battle, he saw the same scene.In the blink of an eye, the courtyard was still the same courtyard, but for him, it was already different.

Putting down the curtains to block out the light and hugging him warmly, Jin Yi was skin-to-skin with the person under him, wishing not to be separated again, his heart throbbed endlessly and he gasped deeply, pouring out every word: "Ye Xin."

"Ok?"

"I saw so many bright and gorgeous lamps tonight, but I feel, I feel that they are not as good as you looking at my eyes at this time."

The moon is tired and the lights are tired, but the people who have each other feel that the night is still young, the meaning is strong, and the love is hotter.
