[Sword Three] Begonia is still

The third day of March, Shangsi Festival.

One day in advance, Haitang and Hu Ruozi had already packed the tub, prepared the firewood and water they needed, and started boiling the water at dawn.Hu Ruozi didn't want to be troublesome at first, so he simply took a bath in cold water, but Haitang couldn't wash it, so this idea was naturally invalidated.There were no servants in the room, only Haitang and Hu Ruozi, so they agreed to wash each other's hair.

Compared with women from ordinary families, Haitang and Hu Ruozi's hair is shorter, because they often sweat profusely during martial arts practice, and if they have too long hair, it is a big problem to wash their hair.So even though the hair has been stored for so long, it has just reached the thigh.

Haitang let down her hair, "Do you want to make it shorter?"

"Stupid? The hair crown is going to be unstable."

That's right, her hair wasn't too much in the first place, if she cut it shorter, she might not be able to wear the hair crown stably.

"Senior Sister, I should wash your hair first." Haitang was soaking in the bathtub, Hu Ruozi got some black powder from somewhere, and said it could be used to clean her hair, so she used it.Hu Ruozi really likes to do these things for others, "Hey, don't worry, I just like to play with other people's hair. Usually, before this kind of time, how can anyone let others touch their hair at will? I'm taking advantage of you .”

"Hey." Haitang smiled cheerfully, "Senior Sister can take whatever she wants."

Cleaning makes people feel refreshed, and Hu Ruozi wipes his hair very carefully. Haitang, who thought she would get soaked and put on two layers of clothes, felt that she was doing too much.The two replaced the water in the bathtub, and Haitang also followed Hu Ruozi's technique to help her wash her hair.Different from his own little hair, Hu Ruozi's hair volume is enviable to the point of envy, and it is also very black, which looks very good-looking.

"Senior sister, should you wear your hair in a bun today?"

"Mine should be fine, what about yours?"

"..." That's right, her dish must look ugly.But it doesn't matter, does it?They have all become "adults" and have grown up - the Tiance Mansion does not have the gift of Jiji, so they should be considered as Jiji - then they can have their hair tied.

"It's okay, let's go."

"Alright."

When Lan Zhiyuan knocked on the door, the two girls had already finished their bath and were eating lunch in the room.He came in with a big bag, saw the two simple dishes and steamed buns on the table, couldn't help but sighed, "Eat less, there will be more food by the river at night. It seems that this year because of the hidden sword mountain village People in Yangzhou City provided a lot of wine, and the rich people in Yangzhou City are not to be outdone, they are all holding back and making more pastries. You are so lucky, you can have a real feast tonight!"

"Really?" Haitang stood up excitedly, "Ying—I mean, will people from Hidden Sword Villa come too?"

"I don't know. I heard that the owner was invited, but I also heard that the owner is getting old and gradually cares about things. Maybe he won't be sick." Lan Zhiyuan didn't know why Haitang was so concerned. He unpacked the burden and took Jiang Hu Ruozi handed the short-color bunt and red and blue inter-color double-breasted jacket skirt to Hu Ruozi, and the garnet-red bunt and red and yellow inter-color chest-length skirt to Haitang, "I'll go out and wait. Come out when you are ready. Go to the river to get rid of it."

The two pulled out the bunt at the same time, and Lan Zhiyuan, who hadn't had time to go out, glared at him, and put down the bunt at the same time.Lan Zhiyuan stood in the main room and waited. It stands to reason that girls would be slower to change clothes, so he was already mentally prepared to wait for an hour.

But he didn't expect Haitang and Hu Ruozi to come out without even rubbing the floor of the main room.Hu Ruozi was wearing a double-breasted skirt, and the combination of red and blue colors brought out her figure and temperament.And Haitang is wearing a bust-length skirt with a belt above her chest, and the red and yellow color scheme is also very lively.only……

"What are you two doing! You! Ye Haitang! Go and re-tie your belt, no one tied it around your neck! Where are your two cloaks? You want to go out with your hair tied like this? Sit down for me !" He pushed Hu Ruozi down on the mat, "Ye Haitang, go get the comb, and I'll just use the one of yours to fix the crown!"

"Oh, oh!" Haitang quickly ran back to the house with her skirt in hand, and took out all the things Lan Zhiyuan asked for.After thinking about it, she took out the box that Grandma gave her, took out the hairpin inside and took it with her.The belt was still hanging around the neck, Haitang appeared in front of Lan Zhiyuan again, and provoked him again, "Hurry up and tie your belt. Tie it on your chest and twist it into a twist?"

"Oh!" Haitang hurried back to the room, took off the belt from her neck, and tied a knot in front of her chest.The senior brother said to make a twist, but Haitang couldn't make it steady for a long time. Finally, he felt the doorway, twisted the rope, picked up the skirt and went out.

As soon as he arrived at the main room, he saw Hu Ruozi who had combed his hair again.Although the comb is very simple, it looks much better than the small lump on the top of the head before.The hairpin that Grandma gave her was still on the desk, so Hu Ruozi was useless.

Seeing her in a daze, Lan Zhiyuan couldn't help but dragged her over and pressed her on the mat, "You two are really inferior to a big man like me? Huh?"

No, on the contrary, Hu Ruozi really wanted to know what happened to him in the past few years when he was traveling, and why he was so proficient at combing his hair.

It's just that Hu Ruozi couldn't ask after all, and Haitang's bun was obviously more difficult to do than Hu Ruozi's.He fiddled with it for a while, and finally put his hair up, and put on the hairpin that Grandma gave Haitang, so that he looked more presentable.

"Hey, it's time for you two to learn." The tired and paralyzed Lan Zhiyuan sat directly on the floor, "Otherwise, how could we get married?"

"Then I won't marry." Haitang got angry, Hu Ruozi nodded her head with his finger, but didn't answer.

After finally tidying up, Haitang noticed that Lan Zhiyuan came here almost in full costume today.There was a lot of guilt in my heart, but Lan Zhiyuan didn't care, and led the two to the canal.Haitang couldn't help laughing, she had teased Zhang Yue here, and she was embarrassed, and was rescued by Ye Ying.

At this time, many people have gathered on the shore. Some are imitating the ancients and reciting poems, and some are playing in the water on the shore to enjoy the spring.Haitang didn't want to go into the water, so she automatically and consciously hid under the tree on the bank. Hu Ruozi didn't want to spoil Lan Zhiyuan's interest, so she dragged him to the water's edge to play.

Haitang thinks she is not a person with high comprehension, she has always been the type of a fool to fly first when it comes to martial arts, now that she is free for a while, she starts to regret that she did not bring a gun to practice.But think about it, the clothes are expensive and not suitable for martial arts, it's a pity that she can't fight.

At sunset, the city of Yangzhou is brightly lit.

The three people who had already visited all the food stalls came to the city wall, because the Qushui Liucup Party will be held soon, and there are a lot of people waiting here at this time.The three looked up at the city wall while eating the food in their hands.Not long after, the lights turned from far to near, and a group of people walked up the city wall, the leader probably being the governor of Yangzhou.

It's just that the night is dark after all, no matter how many fire lights and lanterns there are, Haitang still can't see what the governor looks like.

The man raised his hand, and the noisy people gradually quieted down, and said loudly: "Today is the Shangsi Festival! The ancients practiced evil spirits on this day to protect their health for a year. I should follow the example of the ancients and hold this song "Water Flow Cup Meeting". Moreover, Zangjian Villa also generously donated money and provided [-] altars of good wine to add to the fun. Just for one day, the whole city will have fun together. Thousands of cups of good wine will be drifting in the city. Don't push or grab it. Everyone has a share! I also hope that you all drink up the good wine and return the wine bowls to help others."

The people cheered, and the governor gave an order, and the soldiers immediately poured the prepared wine into special wine bowls, gently put it into the moat around the city, and flowed slowly with the water.What is surprising is that the people are very orderly. There is a long queue for places where you can get drinks. Those who get them will leave automatically and chat with relatives and friends. Drink it yourself.

Haitang was squatting on the shore, and there was one that was very close to her, so she picked it up.But when she was about to toast with Hu Ruozi and Lan Zhiyuan, she found that Hu Ruozi and Lan Zhiyuan had gone far away, and she was the only one left here.

Yo...Could it be that Senior Brother Lan has some thoughts about Senior Sister Ruozi, he says he dislikes the two of them, but actually he wants to treat Senior Sister Ruozi quietly?

Haitang smiled, since that's the case, she'd better go play alone.It's just that she doesn't know how to recite poems, and now that she doesn't even have anyone to drink with, she always feels a little bored.

She took a sip, although it was not the first time she drank it, but after all, she was too young, and no one in the camp persuaded her to drink it.A slightly pungent spicy taste accompanied by the mellow aroma of wine entered her throat, making her a little uncomfortable.She looked at the wine glass, so wine is such a thing?

It doesn't taste bad, but it smells good, but the taste may not be acceptable for a while.

But when she took another sip, she actually tasted a little sweetness.She drank it down and looked at the glass again.Well, she decided to overturn what she just said, this wine is better than the ones in the barracks.

"Huh? What is this?"

Something seemed to stick to the bottom of the wine glass.She took it off carefully, found a roadside lamp and turned it on with a faint light. It turned out that it was a letter written on cloth, and it had been washed with tung oil, no wonder it didn't get wet.She read out softly: "After the Qushui Cup starts, take a cup of wine and see you under the willows on the southwestern bank of Yangzhou City."

Who is so unlucky, using this trick to send a message to her sweetheart, it ended up being sent to her.

She put away the silk book, and wanted to return the silk book to the original owner quickly so as not to delay his date with his lover.After inquiring about the willow tree in the southwest of the city, a passer-by kindly pointed in the direction, and Haitang went straight to the willow tree without thinking.But when she arrived, she found that there was no one under the tree. Could it be that the original owner was late?Don't make trouble, it's obvious that you pass the book by yourself, but is it so casual for people to date girls nowadays?Don't you think about the situation where the letter is sent to the wrong person?

Anyway, wait.She picked up a glass casually and stood under the willow to savor it carefully.
