Chapter 4 (1)
Ming Yu sat in a daze until she heard the sound of light footsteps, and Chun Yuan came behind her and said, "Young lady's body is just right, don't worry too much, let's rest, it's already a quarter of a century."

Ming Yu raised her eyes and looked out the window, and saw a golden full moon hanging on the laurel branches in the southeast, she was startled, she stretched herself, stood up, took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed.

Chunyuan sorted out the books for her, put down the tent, added two pieces of rue to the smoker and hung them up, then turned off the lamp, closed the door lightly and went out.

Ming Yu tossed and turned for a long time, and then slowly fell asleep in the sweet scent of rue.

When the family had breakfast the next day, listening to the occasional conversation between the parents just now, Ming Yu knew that the Italian garden for entertaining distinguished guests had been repaired, and her father was going to visit with some literati from the same family and his sect today.

Naturally, the old lady won't be able to appear when she entertains distinguished guests at the next month's birthday banquet, and later she only heard some descriptions from her family members.Knowing that after a game, needless to say, the ostentation in the Yiyuan Garden, the running water seats outside are astonishing.There is a witty saying that all the chefs in the restaurants in Jiangzhou City were hired by the Ruan family that day, and they closed their doors to customers, and those who wanted to drink had to go to the Ruan family.Knowing that his father was going to go there now, his heart moved, and he smiled sweetly at him and said, "Father, I want to see it too."

Jiang shook his head: "Today, all the houses that passed by were men's houses. What are you going to do as a girl?"

Ming Yu looked at his father, pursed his mouth slightly, and made a look of grievance. Ruan Hongtian saw it and said, "It's okay. Firstly, Ayu is still young, and secondly, those who went today are all from the same family. If there is a new face, just ask Ayu to take the servants to hang out by himself. It is my family, and I am afraid that I will get lost?"

Jiang said with a smile: "Since ancient times, loving mothers have lost many children, but I think loving fathers have lost many daughters. I have never seen someone who dotes on her daughter like you."

Seeing Ming Pei, who was sitting down, looking eagerly and enviously, Ming Yu said, "Father, mother, it doesn't make sense for me to take the girl for a walk alone. I might as well take my sister along. I see that the weather is just right today, so I'll treat it like that." Midsummer Garden."

Ruan Hongsheng loves Mingyu, firstly because she is the eldest in the family, and the man's family always pays more affection and attention to his first child, and secondly, he likes her talent.Although this concubine's daughter had the same daily expenses as Ming Yu, she was not treated like this emotionally.He also knew that the two sisters didn't get along very well on weekdays, but today he was a little surprised to hear that Ming Yu offered to ask for a chance to go out for Ming Pei.

Jiang Shi was also a little surprised, thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Forget it, since her two sisters are going, I will go too. You and the men, I will take their sisters for a stroll."

After the family made an agreement, they dispersed and prepared to go out.

Even though it is You's own garden, the Rongyin Hall is not very far away, Mingyu saw that Chunyuan brought the maids, but she was still busy for a while.The round fan, oil umbrella, food, clothes, and clothes were all brought, and even the dew was not left behind, saying that the vegetation is lush there, and it is summer now, in case of being bitten by blind mosquitoes.Ming Yu smiled and followed them.Presumably the same is true at Ming Pei's place. When I got out of my Yilu building, in front of the vertical door leading to the side door where the carriage was parked, I happened to meet her coming from my Wencui building, and the girl behind her hugged her. A lot of things, as if they are about to go far away, are a little funny.

"My sister's clothes are really pretty, it makes my sister look like a flower."

When Ming Pei saw Ming Yu, she immediately came over and said with a smile.

What Ming Yu wore today was just an ordinary lotus root red shirt. Knowing that she was always active, she could talk, but she was just complimenting herself, so she smiled: "Your sister is the prettiest."

Mingzhu was wearing a brand-new sea-green long-sleeved blouse, covered with a bead-studded veil. She was already white, and her skin was even brighter under the sun's green reflection.

Ming Pei was praised, her face showed a slight color, and she leaned to Ming Yu's side and said in a low voice: "Just now, thank you sister for talking to me."

Ming Yu nodded and said, "You are my younger sister, but it's just my duty as a sister."

Ming Pei didn't expect her to respond like this, she was stunned for a moment, her steps slowed down, and after seeing her finished speaking, she already walked forward.

She had just returned to Wencui Building where she lived and was about to go out. Her nanny, also a cousin surnamed Wang who had come to seek refuge with Aunt Liu, said quietly: "Your sister, I don't know what plan she has today, but she will take care of you for you. Speak in front of Dad. Don’t be afraid of what happens, just be afraid of [-]. You have to be careful after you follow her, and don’t make any mistakes and get caught in the wrong place. But it’s not easy to show it on the face. When you see her, you should be happy to thank her. Try to please her as much as you can, it will not do you any harm."

Ming Pei was also a little puzzled by Ming Yu's sudden change in attitude, and when Nanny Wang said this, she naturally remembered it.Seeing that Mingyu was already ahead, she hurried to catch up.

No matter how clever Ming Pei is, she is only an eight-year-old girl, and Si Mingyu can see through it at a glance.Smiling slightly and holding her hand, the two sisters went side by side towards the side door, stunned by the group of girls following behind.When have you seen such a sight?

When Ming Yu and Ming Pei arrived at the side gate, Ruan Hongtian and Jiang Shi were already waiting for her, they hadn't seen her for a long time, and they were about to send someone to take a look, when they suddenly saw the two sisters coming hand in hand from a distance, the couple were naturally a little surprised.After being surprised, Ruan Hongtian felt happy, felt that this big girl was really sensible, caring for her sister so much, made her even more happy with her.The people sat in the carriage separately, and Ruan Hongsheng and several servants rode on horseback to protect them, and the group went to the garden.

Jiang Shi took the two Ming Yu sisters to ride in the car together, Ming Yu didn't talk much, but Ming Pei kept talking all the way, Jiang Shi occasionally answered a few words, and soon the Yiyuan arrived.

Ming Yu got out of the carriage, and from a distance, she saw her uncles and brothers and some literati from the Congzhen Pavilion run by her father waiting at the gate of the garden, led by her uncle Ruan Hongjin.A servant ran over quickly, probably saying that the female relatives also came over, and asked to get out of the way first.The group of people backed away with a huff.Only then, under the guidance of a leading woman, did Jiang take the two sisters Mingyu and the servants who followed them to the gate of the garden.

Ming Yu looked up and saw a five-room gate, covered with a roof of round glazed tiles, shining brightly in the sun. Patterns, the high walls on both sides follow the terrain all the way down, and you can't see the side. On the lintel, there are two big characters of "Yiyuan" in gold paint on a black background, which is imposing.

She has seen this scene countless times before. In the two years before she got married, the whole family lived here for half a year.I didn't think it was wrong at all before, but now I see it, I feel that it is too gorgeous and dazzling.Hearing the admiration of the people behind him, a voice said, "I seem to have seen the gate of the Heavenly Palace", which was extremely ear-piercing. When I looked back, I saw Ming Pei's nurse surnamed Wang, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "Sister-in-law Wang said that It's just a garden, it's a palace of heaven and earth. People who don't know about it think that my family is so arrogant, and even the servants dare to boast to such a degree! Just do your own thing well, and it won't be because of you. If you talk, you will lose half of what you deserve!"

The nanny's face was flushed with embarrassment, but she was a little puzzled in her heart, why the big girl who used to act and speak with a bit of a fairy suddenly became like this, and she ate and responded.Ming Pei thought she had lost face, so she gave her a hard look.

The Jiang family has been married for many years, and has long been accustomed to the luxury of the Ruan family. He didn't care about what the sister-in-law said. He was reminded only after Ming Yu said it, and he said with a straight face: "You heard what the eldest girl said? I will pay attention to it in the future." Keep your mouth shut!"

All the maids and women were shocked when they saw that the usually gentle lady had spoken like this, and they all agreed.Only then did the Jiang family lead the crowd in, and saw that there were many green hills and vines, beautiful trees and exotic flowers everywhere.I chose a small path and went all the way, sometimes it is flat and wide, with flying buildings and embroidered railings, and sometimes the winding path leads to seclusion, revealing a corner of the porch, pouring medicine steps, Liangming Pavilion, Qifeng Hall, Qingxiang Pavilion, Fujihua Bookstore..., it is actually One step at a time.Jiang Shi was still in high spirits at first, but gradually became a little tired.Ming Yu didn't have the heart to seek novelty, seeing that Ming Pei was tired but didn't dare to tell, so she said to the leading woman, "Why don't you take her to the main building to rest."
