Chapter 5: Shadows under the Moon

The three of them left the crabapple tree and went straight down to the small building.Mrs. Xu went up to the Bayun tower first.After a while, she came down and said, "Lv Niang is used to being quiet, and she doesn't want to see strangers at this moment. You can go and see me in a few days." While leading us upstairs, he said: "This is the first rare thing upstairs. The most rare thing is the tranquility, and the second rarest thing is the scenery. The only bad thing is that it is farther away from Lie Cuixuan, and if there is something going on inside and you need to be summoned, you must be diligent on your feet."

He asked us if we had written down the rules.We said the important things again.She listened carefully one by one, and reminded her if she was negligent.Pearl and I were listening carefully, and I don't know, someone's stomach gurgled, and suddenly there was a loud noise.

Everyone looked around and laughed.Fumbled into the kitchen.

All the cooking utensils are there, but the jars and jars are empty.I said, "Why is there nothing here?" Aunt Xu laughed, "Eunuch Ma has been busy here for a few days. I guess he forgot about this place. Didn't he just arrest me?" This matter is very strange, The first is that he has no reason to put us outside, and the second is that he has no reason to put us in such an empty upstairs.But things are already like this, and we can't take care of much.It is important to solve the immediate problem of eating first.

After searching everywhere for a long time, Zhenzhu suddenly remembered that there were still some unfinished bread, dried meat and other things in the package.Hurry up with one to draw water, one to hold the fire, and the other to make a pot, and work together to pack a meal and a pot of soup.When they were seated, they looked at each other, and suddenly felt that the affection between the three of them seemed to have deepened in an instant during this chaotic process.Mrs. Xu looked at the table and said with a smile: "Look at the three of you and me, we are not clever women, and this meal is a meal without rice. After a lot of dancing, it is really embarrassing!"

I never expected that the first day of entering the palace would be like this.However, although he was really embarrassed, he was rarely so happy and at ease, so he just smirked.

Before you know it, the day is over.

There was no wax or light in the room, and it was cold.The three of them talked for a while, and felt that their hands and feet were cold.Besides, after such a day of tossing, I was already tired.So taking advantage of the moonlight, they boiled hot soup, and after washing their heads and faces, they went to bed early.I thought that I was tired and exhausted, and I would be able to sleep until dawn after a night of sleep.Unexpectedly, she woke up after sleeping until midnight.It doesn't matter if you wake up this time, it's even more difficult to fall asleep for a long time.The house was bare and there was really nothing to eat.

Sitting on the quilt for a while, thinking about what happened during the day.The Chuan Ma who suddenly went crazy, the young master who cut the road and flew to rescue him, the noisy crowd, the palace that was so big that there was no limit, the ginkgo tree that had been seen for 800 years, and the sad and lonely Ban Yunxiufei building.

Ten years ago, not too long ago.Mrs. Xu can explain these things so clearly. What did she experience ten years ago?I jumped out of bed and slowly opened the window.

There was a person standing beside the crabapple tree under the moonlight.

I shook my head, thinking I was dazzled by hunger.When I looked again, his back was still there.He was motionless, blankly like a wooden chicken, with his head tilted, just staring at one place in a daze.After a while, a gust of wind blew up, and the crabapple flowers fluttered like falling snow and fell to the ground.He just came back to his senses, brushed his body slightly, sighed, and walked slowly.Looking at his body shape, he looks a bit like Mr. Wei.

Everything was like a dream.I stood there blankly for a while, and then by a strange coincidence, I pushed the door, slowly groped downstairs, and walked to the place where he was standing just now, then slowly stretched out my hand to touch the cracked old tree trunk.I thought to myself, crabapple tree, did you wither because of Empress Yongli?Today, is it blooming again because of the arrival of me and Pearl?Just when I was full of melancholy, when I heard another rustling of flowers, I unconsciously leaned over and held a bunch of crabapple flowers in my palm.As I was looking closely, I suddenly remembered Haitang's alias——Jieyuhua.

Before I knew it, I put them to my ears and listened.The petals are quiet, like rouge, like jade dew.There is no vicissitudes of ten years of wind and rain.Only the delicate beauty of flowers blooming overnight.Trees are more affectionate and longer-lasting creatures than humans.I firmly believe in this point, but it is a pity that this night, the vastness of the galaxy and the vicissitudes of the universe are so close to me and this tree, and it refuses to say anything about those curious past events.

In this way, the first day really passed.

Early the next morning, people were still in bed, and they were first awakened by the smell of rice.He hurriedly put on his clothes and walked all the way downstairs, where he immediately saw a table of steaming meals.

Mrs. Xu was rolling up her sleeves, pushing up the bracelet, busy going back and forth.Pearl surrounded Mrs. Xu, very pleasantly surprised, jumping like a bird, "Huh? Yesterday, Mrs. Xu said that a good woman can't cook without rice, why is she a snail girl today? Where did this food come from?" ?”

Mrs. Xu said with a smile: "I was afraid that you would be starving, so I went there to beg early in the morning."He said to me again, "Chuan Ge'er is up too, let's have a taste."

We are immediately offended.No need for chopsticks, just put it in your mouth when you pick it up.Looking at the ordinary dishes, who knows that there is a special taste in the mouth.Numb, spicy, fresh, fragrant, all tastes are just right.Pearl smacked her lips, and praised: "Ma'am, you are very skilled. I didn't expect me and my sister to have such a good fortune!" Mrs. Xu laughed, "I was afraid that Mr. Ma would find out that you were hungry last night, so I did it. Make delicious food, and stop your mouths!" I said casually, "Since Madam comes to accompany us, how can someone who is used to Madam Xu's food be willing to do this?" Madam Xu let go after hearing this. work in hand.After a while, he said: "The people who are used to my cooking have already disappeared."

I was silent, knowing to talk about her pain.So he lowered his head and dared not speak again.Mrs. Xu's words did not stop, she still said: "Nowadays, most of the people in the mansion come from the north, and they are not used to the food here in Kunming. They all bring good cooks with them. So, although I work in the kitchen , but apart from making eggplant vinegar, rose cakes and the like, it has long since been useless.”

Pearl, however, only cared about her mouth, not her ears. When she heard "eggplant vinegar", she immediately asked:

"What is eggplant vinegar?"

Mrs. Xu said, "It's really nothing, it's just a side dish for dinner. When we settle down, I'll make some for you to try." Pearl smiled and nodded, and repeatedly asked Mrs. Xu not to forget to make it for us to eat .The two of them chatted, ate, and cleaned up.Mrs. Xu took us to check the things in Xiufei Building, and then took us to clean up everywhere. It was a busy day.

I didn't realize that the sun was already westward.

Mrs. Xu looked at us, and the boss couldn't bear it, "You two should rest for a while."

Pearl played by herself for a while, then came over and grabbed my shoulders and swayed, asking me to accompany her to the top of the building to have a look.She couldn't push it, so I climbed to the top of the building with her.Looking around, there are clear rivers, lush grass, and a faint touch of mountains in the distance, setting off the sparkling water nearby.After a while, a breeze came from Jinhuapu.A piece of gossamer-like tune followed the wind, and if it fell into the ears as if nothing, "it will be for you like a flower and a beautiful family, like water and years...".

Like a flower and a beautiful family member, the year seems to flow like water.

A well-familiar drama, today hit me hard in the heart.All of a sudden, it suddenly felt like being in the previous life, and suddenly it felt like being in the next life.When she was in a daze, Pearl, who was leaning against the railing, happened to turn sideways and face me.Her hair and earlobes were brilliant gold and pink in the sunlight.It is really better than all the natural scenery in front of you.

I turned my thoughts around a few times, but finally didn't dare to think about it any more.Resentfully, she dragged Pearl downstairs and entered the house.Mrs. Xu was still busy, and she saw us with anxious faces. "There are no candles or corner lamps in the building, nor rice flour, oil and salt. We don't want it, and the manager hasn't delivered it yet." I looked at the sky and saw that it was still dark, so I thought it would be too late to go right away.But looking around, besides the pearl, it was me.There is no horse, no car, and no caring boy or groom.

In the end, I stood where I was, not knowing what to do.
