Yucuo of the Red Chamber

There was nothing to do the next day, and when everyone was tired from the busy journey, and it was drizzling outside, Daiyu and Foye decided to let everyone stay in the house to rest, and those who wanted to sleep should get enough sleep.They themselves got a good night's sleep.

But most of the young people who accompanied the driver had also rested for two days before, and seeing such a good place now, how can they sleep?There is a saying that "beautiful scenery can be eaten", the Humble Administrator's Garden is known as the best garden in the world, besides the lotus, there are countless other things to appreciate.Since they were not on errands, everyone lingered in twos and threes, lingering and stopping under the pavilions, pavilions, rockery, flowers and trees, all amazed and wished that Daiyu, who could not be persuaded, would stay here in the future.Although there are all kinds of exquisiteness in the palace, compared with this, I always feel that there is something lacking.Even the Grand View Garden, its construction is not as good as here.

Of course, there is some history here.It has changed owners several times, but it has never stopped pursuing its excellence.Constantly invite famous teachers to give advice on design changes, and the construction of this garden is for the purpose of pleasing the mind, without the slightest boast or utilitarianism in it, and the things made naturally have this style.

During the Double Ninth Festival, everyone boarded the Lvqi Pavilion.The mountain is not high, but it is expensive.The small rockery, located below zero, has a panoramic view of the surrounding lakes and mountains in autumn.The kiosk is not big, but it is a little more compact and can hold five or six seats.If it is really difficult, the chrysanthemum wine, rice wine and crabs are boiled at the bottom of the mountain, and they are sent up when they are cooked. It is only a few steps away, but it is also cheap.

Daiyu got up early in the morning, and the palace gift was delivered three more times, and the last one was delivered.Eunuch Song seemed to be very happy, probably because Daiyu's painting last time brought him a lot of benefits, or he could also take the opportunity to visit the south of the Yangtze River.It's just that I can only stay for a few days, but this gift-giving errand is a rare good job, with rewards on both ends;In addition to the boxing ceremony, there are also various things that the Suzhou government is preparing to present as a tribute, and the holy will asks them to allocate a share to Daiyu first.Even all kinds of things on the southern tribute were prepared separately and delivered directly.

After a while, the prefect of Qin came to celebrate the festival with several officials whom he had met last time, and the freshest and fattest crabs in Taihu Lake, as well as the best chrysanthemum wine and yellow rice wine produced nearby, all of which were sent in large quantities.Fortunately, Yuanxiangyuan has a large place, so it is not afraid that it will not be able to pile up.And Eunuch Chen arranged for rewards, although it was cumbersome, it was also organized.

Only after this busy process was over, Buddha took Daiyu and strolled slowly around the garden, hugged her and said with a smile: "Yu'er, after reading this, I am hesitant, we should stay here, Either stay in Luyi, or change to another place."

"Didn't you say that there are places like fairyland? Compared with Luyi, I think there are probably many good places in the world. I want to take a good look around and compare them one by one. And if it is true that every year If you want to go back to Beijing, you have to go through many places every year, why not live in each place for a while, okay?" Clinging his arm, standing on the stone railing, looking at the Buddha from above, this feeling is really good .

"Okay, as long as Yu'er likes it. Now the official road is well cultivated, even if it is a farther place, it will be there in a month or two. Even if you count the round trip, you can still go to many places every year. Yu'er... afraid Aren't you afraid of being tired?" Holding her waist tightly, so as not to accidentally fall into the pool or be blown away by the wind, that's great.

Daiyu looked down at him, shook her head again, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. With the concubine's care so meticulous and thoughtful, I just enjoy it and don't tire me out. It's just... sometimes I see you are always busy, and I have to Will you get tired just playing with me? There are always a lot of things to prepare when traveling, unlike at home, and you don’t want me to worry about it. If you are tired... well, just tell me. I can also help Yes, so as not to be said to eat nothing."

The Buddha kissed her nose and said with a smile: "It's okay, they have to do it. And some people take advantage of the time to go around the world to exchange what they have, do some trade, and get some interest. There is no delay in the two, and they are happy." Hey, let's just have fun, those things let everyone get busy, huh?" Carefully bent down, pecked her lips, and asked with a smile, "Yesterday's crabs were not bad, but why do you have to eat chrysanthemum wine? Didn't Yu'er say rice wine is best with crab?"

Daiyu straightened up, supported his shoulders with both hands, shook her head and smiled, "The two are different. Crabs are cold in nature, and the cold hurts the spleen and stomach, and it is difficult to digest after eating; so you should eat some boiled rice wine, not only to remove the fishy smell It also promotes blood circulation and dispels cold, warms the stomach and eliminates food. Eating chrysanthemum wine is another matter. Today is the Double Ninth Festival. According to Ge Hong's "Xijing Miscellaneous Notes" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, during the reign of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, the palace's "September [-] wears cornel, Eat lotus bait and drink chrysanthemum wine. Clouds make people live longer'. According to "Continued Qi Xie Ji" written by Liang Guanjun in the Southern Dynasty, "Drinking chrysanthemum wine on September [-] can eliminate disasters."People always think that chrysanthemum can avoid evil and eliminate disasters, and it symbolizes longevity, so everyone should eat it. "

Buddha nodded, then bent down and bit Daiyu's ear and said with a smile: "Yu'er, I also want to eat more wine today, and Yu'er should also eat more, okay?" The ambiguity in his tone shows that he has ulterior motives.

"What are you doing with all that wine? You didn't have enough to eat yesterday." Daiyu said shyly in a low voice, "I didn't wake up in the middle of the night."

"Don't Yu'er like it? I'm going to eat more crab meat today, so that I won't be bored when I'm hungry." Foye still laughed softly, "I don't want Sui'er and Lin Yinlong to take the lead. Besides... Biting her lip, Master Buddha said with a sly smile, "I heard that there are still people who dare to think about Yu'er. I have to be optimistic. When I have a brother. I don't care about everything for a day, just guard Yu'er... "

"It's really an enemy from the previous life!" Daiyu said coquettishly, stomping her foot, but she didn't step on her foot firmly, and she swayed!Foye hurriedly hugged her and turned around. In the blink of an eye, the danger was saved.Daiyu hugged his neck tightly, giggling non-stop.

"Still laughing!" Buddha bit her nose and pretended to be annoyed, "I've been standing there, and I still refuse to be honest. It's cold now, if I fall into it, it will be terrible. Next time I am so dishonest, I won't be allowed to stand there." Playing on it."

"No, I like to stand there." Daiyu leaned her head on his shoulder, suddenly acted coquettishly, and muttered, "You are too tall, you always have to look up when you stand on the ground...sometimes you look up. My neck is sore. You said... When will I have a brother? Do I have to give it away? Can you think of another way? Or wait until he is a few years old before sending him away?"

"Good boy, other methods are not safe." Master Buddha carried her to sit in the pavilion, and coaxed her carefully, "Even if the rich and noble families, most of the little brothers and sisters were also brought up by the nanny. I will find some for him." The best nanny, let him grow up well, eh? Yu'er, be obedient... In addition to this brother, let's have a few more babies, okay? Give birth to ten or eight, and then build a harmonious relationship A mansion similar to the mansion, everyone is harmonious and beautiful, okay?"

"It's not good either. It will take a hundred years for the Qi Mansion to gather those popularity. This place...is another private property. It would be too ostentatious if it were bought. And according to Father and Brother's intentions, at least Father and Brother A hundred years ago, we would inevitably have to return to Beijing every year. No matter where we are, there is no way to stay forever." Daiyu was a little unhappy.

"Not at all. After a few years, when everyone fades away, I'll find a reason to get away with it." Buddha hurriedly comforted.

"Forget it..." Daiyu held his neck and muttered, "It's still early, let's talk about it when the time comes."

"Hmm..." Lowering his head, he smelled a...

Pick up the wine in the cup in the morning and evening, the lonely person after the storm, do you have an intoxicating smile, wild geese fly over the chrysanthemums and stick their heads.

The Yuanxiang Garden is dominated by lotuses, and only a few chrysanthemums are sparsely planted.But people here have always loved to tend bonsai, and the chrysanthemum bonsai of various colors have different shapes and are full of wit and wit, which are rare in other places.In addition to the common tree-like bonsai such as cliff-style, single-dry, oblique-dry, jungle-style or stone-attached, wood-attached, there are also miniature chrysanthemum bonsai and ammonite pictures imitating traditional Chinese paintings.There are even rare real chrysanthemum trees. The branches are similar to pines and cypresses, but the chrysanthemums are full of branches, and the artistic conception is very different.

Look at the golden phoenix crown, with beautiful branches and full bloom, elegant and luxurious; the white fan painting is like a chrysanthemum fan.There are also rising every step of the way, the harvest of the five grains, etc., all of which are vivid.In addition to those cultivated by the garden owner, Mrs. Xu, some of them were bought from the outside market; some other famous products were sent by the prefect of Qin.

Although Daiyu never went out or became famous, Mrs. Xu did not know the identity of the distinguished guest.But the prefect of Qin came every day, and the Yuanxiang Garden was in an extraordinary situation, there were officials guarding both inside and outside, and there were even extraordinary guards and eunuchs coming in and out, and the things they wanted were particularly good.Gusu officials and even marketers are still suspicious.Among other things, as long as the requirements here are high and the hands are generous, one must be rich and powerful.The magistrate of Qin came again, which shows that it is very special.

But people have a mouth and always want to talk, so let them go.From Daiyu Buddha down to Jiuer Shuangsiyiner, etc., I don't care much.After waking up early in the morning, everyone started busy setting up various bonsai tables, and some people were busy preparing crabs for boiling wine, etc., and they were roughly ready at this moment.Everyone saw Buddha and Daiyu whispering to each other from a distance, but they didn't bother them; they just checked things over and over again, moving what should be moved, and what should be changed.I reminded again, those bonsai are precious things, be careful not to touch them and break them.He sneaked aside again, chopped the fat crab into eight pieces, and each tasted a little.

Only when Foye and Daiyu turned around the corridor and walked down the corridor to the foot of the mountain, all the people became serious again, and those who had just finished their work hurried over.Although Daiyu didn't like to get together very much, everyone was together every day. Since it was a festival, they got together more and more, except those who were on duty, they all came.Two or 30 people, no more, no more, just enough to be lively.Even if they are on duty, they also go in shifts, and they will be replaced by others in a while.When going out, pay less attention. Everyone is like a family, but they are very close.
