2. Chapter 1

"Lanyin has risen, and we agreed to go to see the sunrise together. It's hard to get Huashan. If you can't get up again, we'll..."

He was sleeping soundly, and a familiar noise suddenly sounded in his ears. Xie Lanyin frowned and muttered, holding the quilt and turning into the bed, but the sound was unyielding, and the kung lingering for another cup of tea disappeared.

The ears finally became clear. Xie Lanyin unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, poked her head out of the quilt, and continued to sleep.

Outside the window, Sangzhi Parrot sent the second girl and returned to the outside room.

Seeing that the girl was sleeping soundly inside, the parrot sat on the couch and smiled and talked to Sangzhi, "It's still early to get up, so let's sleep for a while?"

Among the six girls in the three-bedroom house of the Xie family, the fifth girl is the most coquettish and can't stand the fatigue. She said that this time she went to the uncle's house in Xi'an for a wedding banquet. When she passed by Huayin, the lady led the girls to Huashan to enjoy the scenery. After she arrived at Zhenyue Palace, the girl refused to go in. The lady had to change her plan and decided to stay here for two nights and go down the mountain tomorrow morning.

Sang Zhi was holding a small mirror to look at her in the mirror, "You can take a nap, I won't sleep anymore, so I'll have to combed my hair again later." She carefully tidied her hair bun while speaking.

She acted sternly, and her clothes were not good enough. The parrot was used to it, so she yawned and leaned on the couch, closing her eyes and napping.

Sangzhi is diligent and starts working after combing her hair. She gently wipes the inside and outside tables.

As the sky gradually became brighter, Sangzhi went outside to bring water, woke up the parrot before leaving, and asked her to call the girl to get up.

The parrot rubbed his eyes and sat up. After tidying up, he entered the inner room with a refreshing look.

In the plain gauze tent, Xie Lanyin still slept sweetly, with black hair scattered, black eyebrows as picturesque, and beautiful as peony.

Serve such a fairy-like master, the parrot enjoys everything he does, so he lifts up the gauze tent and leans over to call people, "Girl, I heard from the little Taoist nun that the water in Huashan Yujing moisturizes the skin and beautify the beauty last night. Last night, they specifically asked them to burn the water in Yujing for the girl. Get up quickly and try it. The effect will be bad if the water is cold."

Xie Lanyin rubbed the quilt after a while, turned around sleepyly, sleepy, "Really?"

The voice was soft and soft, and it was so nice that it could not be said. No one could be ruthless in lying to her after hearing it.

The parrot smiled and nodded, reached out to support the beauty on the bed, "When did I deceive the girl?"

The Yujing in Zhenyue Palace is still a bit famous. Xie Lanyin did not doubt it and leaned lazily against the head of the bed, waiting for the two big maids to serve him.

Sangzhi Duanshui is coming forward, Xie Lanyin takes the hot towel that has twisted water and applied it to her face. The warm feeling instantly dispels her sleepiness. She sighs softly, and Xie Lanyin puts on the towel and instructs: "Papardor helps me rub my legs. I walked the mountain road for a long time yesterday, but now I'm sour."

When this person's voice sounds nice, it is easy to empathize when complaining. The parrot felt distressed. He sat tilted on the couch to help the girl rub her legs, rub her from her thighs to her ankles. He was very skillful. After serving the girl with her hands and faces, she took two sets of pastel flower and bird pattern balm boxes, opened the lid and handed them over.

The refreshing fragrance of roses drifted away. Xie Lanyin used his index finger to dig some cream on his forehead and cheeks, and praised with satisfaction while rubbing it evenly: "The beauty I gave to my third cousin this time is so beautiful. It smells fragrant and it feels comfortable to apply on his face. I will use this in the future, and I will tell him later."

The parrot immediately smiled and said, "The third young master is the most favored girl. Anyone who is attracted by the girl will definitely not sell it to others."

The wife gave birth to three daughters in a row, not even a son. The uncle was good, and she gave birth to three young men in a row, all of whom were business geniuses. The eldest son was in charge of silk tea, the second son was proficient in antiques and porcelain, and the third son had loved to think about rouge powder since he was a child. After the three brothers took over the same business, the Jiang family's status as the richest businessman in Shaanxi became more and more stable. Everyone among the merchants praised him as being like the Jiang family's son.

Among them, the third young master, Miss Jiang Huaizhou, was five years old, but his birthday was the same day, and it was the tenth day of the tenth day of the lunar month. Therefore, the third young master especially prefers this cousin. Every time he makes something new, he will give it to the girl first. If the girl likes it, that thing is exclusively for the girl. In this regard, I don’t know how many noble girls in Hangzhou envy them.

Unfortunately, the third young master is romantic by nature, otherwise his cousin would be more matched.

Thinking of the handsome appearance of the third young master Yushu, the parrot secretly felt regretful.

Xie Lanyin saw it and poked her forehead, "What are you thinking about all day long? Go outside and see if your wife and the others have returned."

Uncle and aunt treat their sisters like their biological daughters, and she treats her cousins ​​as brothers, without any personal affair.

The parrot went with a smile.

When she came back, Xie Lanyin had already dressed up, wearing a lotus-red butterfly-embroidered flower-like lace, and a long skirt with white orchid leaves on it, with a graceful figure. Hearing the sound, the red agate pendant in the little girl's ears swayed gently, making her skin look better than snow, and her moist peach blossom eyes shine brightly.

"The girl is so beautiful." Even though she was with her every day, the parrot couldn't help but praise her.

"Have your wife been back?" Xie Lanyin asked softly, looking at the mirror again, implying smugness.

The parrot smiled and said, "I just returned, girl, come over quickly, don't let the wife send someone to urge me."

Xie Lanyin nodded, left Sangzhi to watch in the room, and she led the parrot out of the door.

In the front yard, Jiang took a sip of hot tea and sighed to his nephew Jiang Huaizhou: "When I was not married to your uncle, I would come to Zhenyue Palace to escape the summer heat every summer, just for the sake of the water of Yujing, which is sweet and mellow."

After getting married, as the wife of the official family, he had to be dignified and respectful, and could not leave easily. The last time he returned to his mother's house, his mother passed away, and now he is traveling again in the old place. Thinking of the freedom and joy of being the daughter of the Jiang family, Jiang was so angry that he was in front of the tea.

When Jiang Huaizhou saw his aunt's memory, he suddenly felt unhappy when he thought of his aunt's second wife. He sang: "Auntie likes to drink, so let's stay here for a few more days. It's still early before my elder brother gets married. I will send someone to send a letter back so that my father doesn't have to worry."

With the wealth of the Jiang family, what kind of person does my aunt want to marry? She was deceived by a martial artist and married from Shaanxi to Hangzhou, and was alone. In fact, my uncle was fine. He really liked his aunt and did not dislike his aunt for not having a son. His uncle and stepmother Chen was a bad wife. Before marrying into the Xie family, he had a mercy with Xie Ding. When the original wife died, Chen entered the mansion. The woman couldn't get into a marriage with her uncle, so she turned into a fight with her daughter-in-law.

The nephew felt sorry for him, and Jiang said with relief: "I can't stay anymore. I haven't come back for a few years. I want to go home quickly."

Xie Lanqiao, a second girl in men's clothing, added a cup of tea to her mother and said cheerfully: "Mom, let's go see my uncle first, and then go here to rest when I come back. Anyway, my father said before going out, let's stay as long as I want, and there is no need to hurry back."

"Mom is so reluctant to let it go," Xie Lanyin eavesdropped outside for a while. At this time, Jiaojiao walked in and looked at her mother and smiled, "Sister, don't listen to what Dad said nicely. Haven't you seen Dad's eyes? You are clearly begging Mom to go back early..."

"Shut up, even I dare to joke, and I am not afraid of your cousin making fun of it." Jiang had many memories, and saw that his playful little daughter had dispersed, and glared at her fiercely.

Xie Lanyin was not afraid at all. She turned around and sat down at Jiang Huaizhou, acting coquettishly intimately, "I won't laugh at me for my third cousin."

Jiang Huaizhou pointed her forehead with a folding fan. When he turned around, he smelled the familiar fragrance and asked with a smile: "How is this balm used?"

"My cousin will definitely be extraordinary when he takes action. I will only use this beauty in the future." After getting the good thing, Xie Lanyin smiled particularly sweetly.

Xie Lanqiao sneered at her sister, "I think you like the name of that beauty, right? You know that you are so pretty all day long and don't do anything serious. Have you learned all the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" The eldest sister was practicing martial arts and doing business, and she was not the good girl she liked by her elders. She didn't want to learn those things, so Xie Lanqiao hoped that her sister would make a sigh for her mother.

Xie Lanyin was dissatisfied and replied with a squinted look: "It seems like you can tell me. I have better needlework than you."

Xie Lanqiao laughed, "Yes, you are better than me, so don't come to me for money in the future."

"No, you are my real sister, I won't look for anyone you want." Xie Lanyin spoke back with a shameless face.

The two sisters quarreled every day, and Jiang had no choice but to persuade: "Okay, okay, go to have a meal first, and you will argue after the meal."

Xie Lanyin heard this and looked at her sister and burst into laughter.

In a blink of an eye, the two sisters sat together at the dinner table, and they talked and laughed and became good sisters again.

After breakfast, Jiang went to find a familiar Taoist nun to reminisce about the past, and Jiang Huaizhou led his two cousins ​​to enjoy the scenery.

He is tall and charming. Xie Lanqiao is only one year older than Xie Lanyin, but he is much taller. He is wearing a jade-colored round neck robe and is also a pretty young man with beautiful eyebrows. Xie Lanyin, dressed in a dress, looks more and more cute when walking among them.

After visiting the Medicine King Hall, Jiang Huaizhou was worried that his weak little cousin's feet were sore, so he pointed to a small wooden corridor in front of the main hall, "That's Yujing Tower. You can have tea and rest on the second floor. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Xie Lanyin was just tired of walking. As long as she could sit down and rest quickly, she would be willing to go anywhere. She nodded immediately after hearing this.

Yujing is one of the famous scenic spots in Zhenyue Palace. Xie Lanqiao was worried that there were many tourists there, so he took the veil from the parrot and helped his sister wear it with his own hands. Her sister's appearance was too outstanding, just like a rare big treasure. Xie Lanqiao was reluctant to let outsiders see it.

Through the thin white gauze, looking at the beautiful second sister who was helping her skillfully, Xie Lanyin felt warm in her heart, "Sister is so nice to me."

Xie Lanqiao smiled and pinched his sister's nose.

Not far away, the three of them soon arrived in front of Yujing Tower.

There is a jade well in the middle of the first floor. The water is deep and it is filled with a faint light.

Xie Lanyin looked by the well for a while, turned her head and asked her cousin, "It is rumored that Princess Jinxian, the sister of Xuanzong, was taking water here. She accidentally dropped the jade hairpin while washing her hair. Later, she found a hairpin in the spring water of the Yuquan Courtyard at the foot of the mountain, so she called Yujing Yuquan. Are those two places really connected? Or is it just a rumor?"

The building is empty, and the little girl's voice spreads slowly, like a quiet spring in the empty valley.
