    Under the eaves, the flowers are fertile,

    When the flowers fall, you must return immediately.

    ? sleep to drown the years,

    ? Teach our parents to lean on the door and wait for someone to return.

    The next day, when the sky was still hazy, Wen Xiu sent Wen Qing to Tongzhou Wharf.

    Wenqing said to Wenxiu: "Brother, the Beijing test has passed, you go to visit my uncle's house. You and I will sit together at the same table, and we will ride together when we leave. Today we suddenly say goodbye, what a sigh!"

    "My younger brother feels the same way."

    "But brother, don't stay in the capital for a long time, let our parents miss you at home."

    "My brother is at home serving his parents well, and when the flowers are not ready, it will be the time when the brother returns."

    Wen Qing boarded the boat, and Wen Xiu turned around and rushed to the capital.

    The luxurious houses in the west area of ??the imperial city are full of delights.

    Dangmen's green water faces thousands of miles, not to mention countless Bishan.

    Lovely place,

    There is a chic Xinhuang [1], the road before the pine and juniper forest.

    Deep in the courtyard, seeing the curtains hanging down,

    The silk reed plays repeatedly, singing and dancing all day long.

    The green hills are verdant, the clear water is blue, the wild flowers are blooming, and the birds are singing.

    After all, Gao Wenxiu is a teenager at heart, being in nature, the displeasure in his heart has long since vanished.

    For a while, he galloped his horse and shouted wildly;

    Jin Guiyan, Lian Pian occupies it.

    ? Xiaosheng has always admired her in the past, but now he is approaching on horseback,

    Try leaning on embroidered martingale and staring at [2].

    Seeing flowers blooming everywhere, who is the master?

    Poem friends and drinkers, play here,

    ? To find flowers and ask willows, you must have your own adventures.

    In less than two hours, I arrived at the street of Grandpa's house.

    There are many luxury houses on both sides of the street, flags fluttering in wine shops and teahouses, brothels are playing with sheng and reeds, and the market is full of calls for buying and selling, and there is a bustling scene everywhere.

    The grandfather's house is backed by green mountains, with green water at the door, white walls and green tiles, and a rich family with high ranks.  Looking across the wall, the pavilions and pavilions inside are majestic and spacious. In the garden behind, there are lush forests and bamboos, rockery and strange rocks, and the scenery is splendid.

    When Wenxiu came to the door, she saw the old courtyard man with white beard and eyebrows again, so she couldn't help but go up to announce his name again. When the courtyard official saw the Gao family officials coming, he hurried in to report.

    In the afternoon of this day, Sun Zhizhi and his wife were talking about their family life in Xichun Hall, when they saw Wang Zhong from the old family courtyard come in with a happy face and report: "Master, Madam, there is a scholar outside the door who claims to be the third grandson of the master, and he came from Shandong."

    Wenxiu grew up with her grandmother, and her grandfather appreciated her grandson's talent very much.

    ?In recent years, Sun Zhizhi has been getting old, and he often wants to bring Wenqing or Wenxiu home to help him and share some household chores for himself.  But they are studying for exams, so they can't get what they want.  Now that I heard that the third grandson is here, I am very happy, and I am busy asking.

    The old courtyard man hurried back to the door, said that the master and madam were welcome, took the reins of the horse from Wenxiu's hand, handed it to a young man beside him, and led the way for Wenxiu himself.

    Wenxiu entered the gate of the mansion with the Duke of the courtyard, and saw a huge courtyard with verandahs on both sides, and a hall in the middle. A red sandalwood marble screen was placed in the hall. Turning the screen was three small halls.  The stone-built rockery in Central Taihu Lake is exquisite and clear, with several green vines climbing on it, and various small flowers are dotted among the leaves, shining like a golden screen.

    Bypassing the rockery, there is a long row of tea [3] racks.  Passing under the shelf, the front is a five-bay nave with carved beams and painted buildings. In the middle of the eaves, a large plaque with gold characters on a black background is hung in the middle, with three big characters "Xichun Hall" written on it.

    On both sides of the nave are wing rooms with corridors through the mountains.  Before he got close, he saw grandpa in home clothes, grandma and maids coming down the stone steps.

    Wenxiu took two quick steps forward and saluted: "Grandpa, grandma is here, let my grandson pay respects."

    Sun Zhizhi hurriedly supported him with his hands, squinted his old eyes, looked Wenxiu up and down, and said with great emotion: "Good grandson, hurry up and forgive me. I haven't heard from you for a long time, and seeing my grandson suddenly today makes me very happy. I can't think of seeing you in a few years, thick  Qing is already a good-looking person. If strangers meet again, I really dare not recognize each other. Houqing, your parents have always been well?"

      Wenxiu said: "Thanks to grandpa and grandma, my parents are safe and sound. How are grandpa and grandma?"

    "so far so good."

    At this time, aunt Zhao Shuxian also rushed over upon hearing the news, and Wenxiu hurried up to salute: "My concubine, please accept my nephew's respect."

    "Third brother is free of courtesy." Zhao Shuxian turned to her in-laws and said, "Old man, why don't you let third brother talk inside?"

    Sun Zhizhi's eyes were moist, and he hurriedly said: "Look, I'm happy and confused, Hou Qing, hurry up and talk in the hall. Wang Zhong quickly went to the kitchen to spread the word to prepare wine and rice, and clean up the dust for his grandson."

    Wang Zhong, the Duke of the old courtyard, responded and went away with a smile.

    Notes

    [1] Huang (huáng): Bamboo forest, generally refers to bamboo, a large bamboo garden.

    [2] Look at (qu): look; look.  (qu): Merge the eyes into a thin slit (watch carefully).

    [3] Tumi

    Also known as 酴醾, Buddha sees a smile, double-petal hollow bubble, it is a variant of the hollow bubble of the genus Rubus in the family Rosaceae.  Erect or climbing shrubs, 2-3 m tall; branchlets terete, pilose or nearly glabrous, often with pale yellow glandular spots, sparsely erect prickles.  5-7 leaflets, ovate-lanceolate or lanceolate; flowers double, fragrant, often 1-2 flowers, terminal or axillary; diameter 3-5 cm; calyx covered with pilose and glandular points; sepals draped  Needle-shaped or ovate-lanceolate, with a long tail tip at the top, often reflexed after flowering; petals are long ovate, white, with claws at the base, longer than sepals.  Fruit ovoid, red, shiny, glabrous; nucleus has deep sockets.  The flowering period is June-July.

    Buddhism

    Tumi flower is mentioned in many Buddhist works, but it is not the "Bi'an flower" (that is, Manzhushahua).  It is also said in Buddhist scriptures that it is a flower that blooms in the sky, white and soft, whoever sees this flower will get rid of evil.  It is a kind of auspicious omen from heaven, but this auspiciousness is not a good thing for people in the world.  Just like the flowers on the other side, the flowers bloom on the other side, when the flowers bloom, you can't see the leaves, and when there are leaves, you can't see the flowers.  Like this, a tumi flower and a flower of the other shore are signs of separation. Without that incomparable detachment, even if you pretend to forget your feelings, you will inevitably shed tears for her.  Although in the deepest part of my wish, I don't want you and me to be confused, and I don't want to see the sad Bana flower, but I still pray that by your hand, she will germinate and bloom.

    flower language

    Tumi flowers bloom in late spring and early summer, and after withering, it means the end of the flowering season, so it has the meaning of ending.  And "blooming to Tumi" means that the flowers have withered and everything is over.

    Tumi is a sentimental flower.  Cauliflower is the last flowering plant in spring, and when it blooms, it means that spring is over.

    The flower language of Tumi flower language is the beauty of the end, and the blooming of Tumi flowers means that a woman's youth is over.  Tumi flowers bloom, which means the end of the relationship.  Love is in full swing, which means that the most brilliant, prosperous or most unforgettable love in life is about to be lost.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
