Chapter 222 Peach Blossom

One year spent similar, each year is different.

In March of Yangchun, peach blossoms are in full bloom for another year. The pink peach blossoms flying all over the sky are as light as butterflies, dancing gracefully.When the breeze blows, the peach blossoms flutter and fall to the ground, like a rain of peach blossoms, causing ripples.

At this time, Chunqiu was admiring the peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains at the temple called Peach Blossom Temple in the north of Linfang County.

Yang Chunming came with her, the brother and sister were invited this time, of course, Yang Chunming was the only person invited, but Chunqiu had nothing to do, so they came together.

"It's so beautiful." Chunqiu looked at the dreamlike peach blossom rain in front of him, with deep appreciation in his eyes, and murmured in his tone.

"The trees are full of tenderness and redness, and the dandelion of thousands of branches is shining in the spring. How to make a thousand-year-old fruit will show the nature of the world." Yang Chunming looked up at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and couldn't help singing this peach blossom poem.

Looking back, Chunqiu first looked up at Yang Chunming beside him, and then looked back at the peach blossom forest. This song "Peach Blossom" by Wu Rong in the Tang Dynasty was suitable for the occasion.

"Brother Rong, you came early"

A clear and deep cry woke up the brother and sister who were admiring the beautiful scenery.

Both Chunqiu and Chunqiu turned their heads together, and a handsome young man dressed in white came striding forward, the breeze mischievously blew the black hair on the young man's cheeks, forcing the young man to stretch out his hands to tidy up the broken hair on both sides, and his gestures were all amorous.

"Brother Shaoheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, but he is as suave as ever. Yang is ashamed of himself."

As Yang Chunming spoke, he bowed his hands, with a slight smile on his face.

Yuan Rui still couldn't hear the meaning implied in the other party's tone. He glanced at the girls around him who were already blushing from his handsome face, and said in a flat tone, "It's not as good as Rong and brother." This implied Yang Chunming There is no small charm.

Yang Chunming and Yuan Rui are fascinated by each other, it's not that they are really disgusting with each other, in Chunqiu's view, it seems that they are teasing each other, and when they say the same thing, they will talk to each other. Smile.

Chunqiu watched patiently from the side, and didn't make a sound to remind them, because of their good looks, a circle of Huaichun girls had already gathered around the peach blossom forest, and they were looking at each other shyly and timidly.

Although Chunqiu didn't remind him, Yang Chunming would still pay attention to the surrounding environment. Looking at the crowds gathering around him, Yang Chunming frowned impatiently with his pretty eyebrows.

"Huh?" Yuan Rui said softly.

"Surroundings" Yang Chunming stated the key point clearly and concisely.

Hearing Yang Chunming's words, Yuan Rui noticed the surrounding environment. The more he paid attention, the more unhappy he became. He flicked his sleeves lightly, and Yuan Rui lowered his head and said, "Let's go to Peach Blossom Temple, my mother and Master Jingyue of Peach Blossom Temple Too thin and friendly, the scenery in Peach Blossom Nunnery is much more beautiful than outside, presumably Brother Rongzhi and Sister Qiu'er will not mind."

Yang Chunming lowered his head and raised his hands, "Brother Shaoheng, please."

Yuan Rui shook his head and said, "Why bother, come with me, both of you." After saying this, Yuan Rui turned around and walked towards Shuiyue Temple with the two people behind him.

The three of them walked very fast, and even if someone wanted to chase after them, they would still be stopped by the nuns of Taohua Temple. Because of Yuan Rui's relationship, the nuns guarding the gate did not make things difficult for Chunqiu and the others.

Going around the veranda, passing through two or three circular arches, until they saw the exit not far away, Chunqiu and the three arrived at their destination.

"Because my mother often comes to worship the Buddha, this house means that Jingyue is a guest room specially prepared for my mother. Now my mother will come back in two days, which is cheaper for us." The two people behind introduced the surrounding scenery. There are peach blossoms in full bloom in the courtyard. Although it is not as majestic as outside the door, it is still fresh and elegant. Xiaojiabiyu, especially the color of the peach blossoms is slightly white, which looks more Those outside are much more chic.

"Brother Rong Zhi, sister Qiu'er, sit down and rest quickly." Yuan Rui greeted the two of them to sit on the stone bench beside them.

After the two of them sat down, Yuan Rui apologized. Hearing that he came here, his mother specially asked him to visit Mrs. Jingyue and discuss matters for two days.

"Why be polite, Brother Shaoheng has something to do, hurry up, my brother and sister don't need to worry." After Yang Chunming finished speaking, Yuan Rui got up and raised his hands, then turned and left the yard.

In the yard besides the peach blossoms, there are crabapples and begonias, magnolias, red ones, pink ones, white ones, all branches are full of trees, and there is no one else, so Chunqiu got off the stool and ran to watch carefully under a bright red crabapple.

When she came back from Yangjia Village, Chunqiu specifically asked how the family felt about the ointment she made. Excluding the third aunt who was still pregnant, both the auntie and sister Chunni expressed unprecedented satisfaction with the ointment. This made Chunqiu very confident in his ointment, thinking that when the time is right, it can be promoted, and the place has also been selected, which is the two-story building that Yuan bought before. The Yuan family rented it out, but because the other party's income is not good, they don't plan to renew the contract again. Chunqiu intends to wait for the other party's contract to expire, and then use it directly. Anyway, it is a shop at home, and there is no need to spend money, especially this two-story small building. The location is relatively prosperous, with a lot of traffic, which makes Chunqiu very satisfied.

With these, what Chunqiu lacks now is a large number of fresh petals. The ointment made can't be limited to one or two types, just like eating cakes. A kind of jujube cake is right to eat.

However, there is still less than half a year before the end of the store contract, so it is not urgent at the moment, the most urgent thing is to buy a piece of land to grow flowers.

Chunqiu stared at the crabapple in front of him, his thoughts drifted farther and farther, from buying a flower garden to opening a shop, he thought about everything, until he was startled by Yuan Rui's voice.

"Hehe, come and taste this peach blossom tea. Master Jingyue specially collects the dew in the morning sun and mixes it with budding peach blossoms. Even if my mother comes here, she may not be able to ask for it." Yuan Rui He walked back with a breezy face, holding a teapot he called peach blossom tea in his hand, with several teacups placed on both sides of the teapot, Yuan Rui dragged the tray and put the objects in his hand on the stone table.

Picking up the teapot, he poured three cups like flowing water. One cup was placed in front of Yang Chunming, the other cup was pushed to Chunqiu's side, and the last cup was slowly picked up by him, and he took a sip lightly.

"Well, the taste is mellow and the peach blossoms are fragrant. Master Jingyue's craftsmanship is really getting better and better." After Yuan Rui finished drinking, he lowered his head and sighed, and then said to Chunqiu, "Come and taste it, you two. But the best peach blossom tea”

After hearing this, Yang Chunming smiled, stretched out his good-looking hands to hold the corner of the cup, put it to his mouth and took a sip, "The taste is really extraordinary, what brother Shaoheng said is good." Yang Chunming put it down with a smile cup in hand.
