The sun sets in the west and the afterglow lingers.

Qingwen's voice was heard outside the study.

"Uncle, Miss Bao is here."

When Jia Heng heard this, he stopped writing, looked at Yuan Chun at the side, frowned, and murmured with confusion, "Maybe it's because of Wen Long."

Yuanchun nodded and put down the account book in his hand, not doubting anything else.

At this time, Baochai stepped into the small hall and raised his eyes to see the two of them. With a slight smile on Li Rui's face, she called out: "Cousin, Brother Heng."

In fact, when he met Qingwen just now, he already knew that Jia Heng was talking to Yuan Chun, but since he was here, he couldn't leave in a pretentious manner.

In fact, I was a little curious about what the two of them were doing in the study.

Jia Heng left the desk with his face as usual and asked, "Sister Xue, why are you here?"

Baochai met that gaze, sighed softly, and said: "It's still a brother's matter. I want to ask Brother Heng for advice. It happens that the old lady's party is about to have a banquet. I hope I can call Brother Heng right now." Went there with my cousin."

Yuan Chun put down the account book and put it on the desk aside. He smiled and said, "I'm really hungry now. Brother Heng, you talk to your sister first, and I'll go over first."

Thinking that Wenlong would go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in a few days, his cousin Xu Shi had something to say to Brother Heng. After all, it was not a happy event, and it was not convenient for her to listen here.

Baochai's apricot eyes flashed, and she said, "Cousin, walk slowly." Then she looked quietly at the young man opposite, their eyes met, and she was speechless for a moment.

Ying'er whispered: "Miss, I'll wait for you outside."

Jia Heng glanced at Ying'er, but met a pair of blinking eyes. His heart moved slightly, knowing that this quirky maid had noticed what happened between him and Baochai, and went outside to look out.

When there were only two people in the study room, Jia Heng stepped forward. As Baochai lowered his head shyly, he reached out and took the girl's soft little hand, leading him to the mahogany desk and saying warmly: "You are here...these account books are from our family's business in Dongcheng. , do you want to take a look?"

Baochai was holding hands, her heart was like a deer, and her cheeks were flushed. Especially when she heard the words "our family", her heart could not help but feel sweetness. She lowered her head slightly, glanced at the account book, and spoke softly. He said: "Brother Heng is the one who makes the decision. I usually don't pay much attention to the family business."

Jia Heng took advantage of the situation and hugged Baochai into his arms. The fragrance of the lush hair floated under his nose. He grabbed the pair of soft little hands with a bit of warmth in the palms. He felt the warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms. Little by little, it penetrated into my heart, and I whispered in my ear, saying: "Then let's watch it when my sister wants to see it."

At this moment, Baochai's usually snowy face was bright red, extending all the way to her earlobes. She softly said "hmm", and was hugged by the young man behind her, especially the gentle whispers in her ears, which made her delicate body tingle. So soft, he quickly changed the subject and asked: "Brother Heng, aren't you going to enjoy the lanterns later?"

Jia Heng thought for a while and said warmly: "There are so many people over there at Tianxiang Tower. Whether I want to talk to my sister or enjoy the lanterns and fireworks together, it's very inconvenient."

While he was talking, he sat down on the pear-wood armchair and hugged it under his arm, as if he were holding... a big white goose with pure feathers like jade.

Not as light as a willow, but plump and elastic, the feeling is really indescribable. At this moment, the seven words "ceiling of the fat world" are like a "steel seal of thought", imprinted on Jia Heng's heart.

Baochai was now sitting in the boy's arms, resting her head on the man's shoulder, lowering her eyelids slightly, her white cheeks as hot as fire, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Heng, the men from the East and West Houses are also in the front hall. , If Brother Heng doesn't go, the old lady will call someone."

I don't want to watch the lights with the people around me, but I can't. I can only wait for my brother to go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division next month, and when he comes back...

Um?

Jia Heng said: "Then we can go there later."

Turn your head and hold the two soft petals, just like the fragrance of peaches and plums in February. On a sunny day, the rich fragrance blows on your face with the warm wind.

Baochai also slightly closed her moist and shining eyes and said no more words.

At that time, only the golden-red sunset filtered through the carved windows, casting a trembling shadow under the dense eyelashes. A lock of hair on the temples hung down and swayed slightly, while the earrings dazzled with clusters of brilliant rainbow light.

After a long time, the Hongqiao bridge that Yinhan had crossed in secret suddenly came to an end under the sunset.

Jia Heng pursed his lips, with a bit of uneasiness on his face. He picked up the teapot on the side, poured two cups of tea, handed one over, and said, "Sister, have a cup of tea."

Baochai's full lips were glowing with crystal clear luster. There was a gold lock with handwriting engraved on her heart, and the necklace on it was curled up in a mess.

He took the tea cup, lowered his head, and slowly drank the warm tea. With his slightly lowered eyes, he watched the tea soup decrease little by little, almost in shame, calming his chaotic and uncertain mood without saying a word.

Just now, I could really feel his love and...fascination.

That kind of infatuation that seems to be a treasure for some reason is a bit confusing.

But there was a bit of shame and joy in my heart.

After a while, the brocade-like sunset glow faded from the sky, and the sky gradually darkened. The twilight, enveloped by the bright moonlight, came down from all directions and shone on the eaves of Rongning's Second Mansion, counting the glazed tiles with a cold light. .

After the tryst and intimacy, the two of them walked towards Tianxiang Tower as if nothing had happened.

Tianxiang Building has two floors, each with desks and various delicacies, melons and fruits, and refreshments. The women's family members gather upstairs, and behind the building there is a stone staircase specially designed for women to go up and down. The second floor is separated by a screen to avoid tabooing men. Ding's use.

Below are the men from the east and west mansions. Jia Zheng, Jia Lan, Jia Huan, Jia Cong and other young people are sitting around the table. Even Jia She, who has not been seen before, is also at the table.

Jia Heng asked Ying'er and Baochai to go up the stone stairs behind Tianxiang Tower, and then he went to the first floor and the small courtyard, and came to the main seat amidst everyone's greetings.

Various lanterns have been hung on the eaves and corners of the courtyard and in the cloisters. Various lanterns have also been hung on the four corners of the Tianxiang Tower, as well as on the plum blossom trees at the rear, and on some of the covered bridges across the creeks and rivers further away. Under the bright silvery moon, , colorful and colorful.

On the stage that was set up, there were several singing songs.

Jia Zheng led Jia Heng to his seat. Jia Heng was surrounded by the bustle and bustle, and he was a little distracted. All the juniors came to see the ceremony, gathered together to have a banquet, and exchanged cups.

Jia Heng looked at Jia She who was standing aside and said, "Why don't you see second brother Lian?"

Jia She's face was pale, he picked up the wine cup and said, "He's not feeling well. He's resting in the house right now."

Jia Heng glanced at Jia She and didn't care.

There are only dry bones in the grave, so why bother?

At the end of the day, Lin Zhixiao's family smiled and said: "The old lady has given orders to set off fireworks and firecrackers. Uncle Heng can also go upstairs to watch."

Jia Heng nodded, went up to the second floor, and looked up.

At this moment, Jia's mother was surrounded by Feng Wan, Sichun, Mrs. Xing, Aunt Xue, Yuanyang, Hu Hu and other maids, looking at the night sky.

At that time, the sky was vast and the moon was as bright as silver.

The night breeze of early spring gently blew the curtains, and the hairpin skirt and coat were dazzling under the lights.

The lanterns cannot withstand the wind and then sway, floating up the interlaced light and shadow from far and near, making each picture some gorgeous, some rich, some dignified, some majestic, some gentle, some soft, some gorgeous, some heroic, some The quiet and beautiful girl's face (please fill in the name of the corresponding person according to the adjective given) is reflected like a slowly unfolding beautiful scroll.

"Brother Heng." Tan Chun and Xiang Yun came forward and called.

Jia Heng nodded and recovered his thoughts.

Baochai held up the handkerchief at this time, looked at the young man, and pursed her pink lips.

Jia Mu said with a smile: "Brother Heng, your wife just said that this is her first year to celebrate the Lantern Festival. I am thinking that you two will always be together during this Lantern Festival." Yuanyuan is the one.”

Qin Keqing couldn't help but have two blushes on her face, and said with a smile: "It's quite lively and joyful to talk to the old lady and sisters now."

In the original work, Jia Mu's words, "You little couple, don't want to have a reunion tonight, why are you delaying it for me?" made You blush, which is exactly the same at this moment.

Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at Qin Keqing, and met the starry bright eyes. There was a bit of shyness in his charming eyebrows. He nodded, feeling a little weak in his heart as he stood aside.

Qin Keqing came close, smiled sweetly, and called in a low voice: "Husband, just now, Sister Yun said that she would put off the lanterns later."

Jia Heng nodded and said with a smile: "Sister Yun likes to have fun the most."

At this moment, a few boys prepared various fireworks and prepared to light them in the open space, accompanied by the sound of popping and rustling.

Knowing that Daiyu couldn't bear the sound of firecrackers, Jia Mu smiled and greeted Daiyu, saying: "Yu'er, come here quickly."

With that said, she hugged Daiyu, her petite body trembling in Jia Mu's arms.

Daiyu felt a little shy for a moment, but she didn't refuse. She let Jia Mu hug her and looked at her like catkins.

Yuan Chun also smiled and took Xichun's little hand and said, "Fourth sister, come here."

Xichun looked at Yuanchun with bright eyes and called in a low voice: "Sister."

Aunt Xue smiled and was about to hug Xiangyun. Xiangyun's face was flushed with excitement. She smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm not afraid of the sound of the firecrackers."

Baochai smiled and said, "Sister Yun just said she was going to light a big firecracker."

Sister Feng raised her eyes to look at Baochai, then looked at Ping'er, and said with a smile: "Hey, we are the only ones who don't feel hurt."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "Come here and I will hug you."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Baochai's face was white and jade-like, and her smile was stagnant. She couldn't help but secretly look at the young man beside her, who was standing not far away from the beauty, and they didn't know what they were talking to in a low voice.

Mrs. Wang stood not far away, squeezing the Buddhist beads hidden in her sleeves. Different from the original work, she had no gems to hold at this moment, so she could only raise her eyes to look at the night sky, her eyes empty and dazed.

"Crackling..."

Accompanied by the sound of firecrackers.

Fireworks of various colors suddenly appeared in the night sky, bright and colorful, and then there were "stars all over the sky", "nine dragons entering the clouds", "a thunder on the ground", flying into the sky, and sparks like daylight.

After a splendid fireworks were set off, everyone returned to the inner room to sit and talk. Several men in the front yard drank too much and dispersed one after another with the help of servants, such as Jia Jia. Forgive me, I will go back to my house to find my wife and concubines for fun.

Xiangyun took Jia Heng's arm, shook it, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, let's go put out lanterns. Putting out lanterns to make wishes is very effective."

To put it bluntly, I don't know which maid came up with the idea of ​​putting up lanterns as a folk custom. Then when Xiangyun heard that Hunter Xin was happy and could make wishes, she felt even more itchy.

Jia Mu smiled and said: "Brother Heng, take the sisters there and don't let anything happen to them. Also, be careful not to lose the water."

There is a small stream in Huifang Garden, with abundant water and winding waves.

Jia Heng nodded and said: "Don't worry, old lady, I will watch."

Mother Jia smiled and looked at Qin Keqing aside, and said, "Brother Heng, my daughter-in-law, you can go too."

Keqing looked at the only young man surrounded by pearls and emeralds. Xueyan paused for a moment, and for some reason a taste arose in her heart. She smiled and said, "I'll just stay with the old lady."

Mother Jia looked at the young daughter-in-law beside her, Rufeng Wan. She was a married woman after all, so she didn't want to play games with girls in the boudoir. She turned her eyes to Fu Qiufang and said with a smile: "The girls from the Fu family can also compete with a few of my family." Girls, let’s go.”

Fu Qiufang smiled and said softly: "I'll just talk to the old man."

This is just a joke played by other sisters, so what does it matter if she goes?

He has been secretly complaining about his brother Fu Shi.

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "My dear, you can play with them too."

Baochai's apricot eyes were condensed, and he nodded, followed by Xiangyun, Sichun and Daiyu.

Because the moon was bright and bright, the moonlight was as bright as a star, and there were lanterns hanging from the eaves of the corridor as dense as stars, so the vision was not dim.

Accompanied by the mammies and maids, strings of lanterns were like fire dragons, shining brightly on the path paved with bluestones, so that the moss marks were still clearly visible.

Everyone came to the stream bank. This was a ferry that had been specially prepared in advance. At this time, several women brought out the lanterns they had purchased in advance. The patterns included flowers such as peonies, apricot blossoms, peach blossoms, lotus... and birds such as egrets, egrets, and egrets. Phoenix, magpie, and animals such as unicorn, tiger, white rabbit, and water animal carp...

Xiangyun smiled and said, "Brother Heng, I came first."

Jia Heng held the lantern, and was also affected by the girl's charming smile. He smiled and said, "My sister has always been a hero, and women are not inferior to men."

Xiangyun smiled and said, "I like to hear what Brother Heng said."

While the two were talking, they saw a palace lantern with a peach blossom pattern floating in the mirror-like stream.

When Yuan Chun got up, the beauty was graceful and quiet. Under Wen Ning's eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were staring at the lanterns, and she clasped her hands together as if making a wish.

Xiangyun suddenly became anxious and said: "Okay, I wanted to be the first, but my eldest sister took the lead."

Yuanchun turned his plump and beautiful face, which seemed to compete with the full moon, and said with a smile: "My sister only talks, but your sister Bao also puts on lanterns."

But Baochai chose a lantern with a phoenix pattern, walked along the stream, looked at the lantern, held a handkerchief in his sleeve, and made a wish.

Then, Tanchun, Daiyu, Yingchun, and Xichun put on lanterns one after another, and I don’t know who was the third one.

Xiangyun also quickly took a lantern and floated it along the creek, blown by the evening breeze. Then there were about a dozen maids, who also placed lanterns one after another.

For a time, on the river surface illuminated by the bright moon, lanterns followed the water, flowing down the edge of the stream, like a long and glowing dragon, reflecting the banks of the stream. The lights and water shadows complement each other, which is really beautiful.

Xiangyun's laughter sounded like silver bells, and others also smiled lightly.

Looking at the smiles and laughter ringing in his ears, Jia Heng looked calm and looked at the lanterns, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Brother Heng, why don't you put one in? You can also make a wish." Tan Chun asked with a smile.

At this time, the maid next to Yuanchun responded with a smile. As she spoke, she held a lantern with a unicorn on it.

Jia Heng reached out to take it and placed a lantern along the lake.

Xiangyun pulled Jia Heng's arm curiously and asked curiously: "Brother Heng, what wish did you make?"

Facing the gazes of everyone, Jia Heng looked into one of the watery apricot eyes and said, "It won't work if you say it."

Baochai's heart trembled slightly as she thought about it, wondering whether the wish he had made was the same as hers.

Everyone let go of the lanterns, and Jia Heng asked people to look after the lanterns on both sides of the stream to prevent water from leaking out, and then led a few people back to Tianxiang Tower.

After gathering together for a while, it was already Haishi. Jia Heng went back to rest first on the grounds that there would be a court meeting tomorrow.
