Chapter 79
On the seventh day of July, the thin red sun fell down the mountain bit by bit.
The hot air dissipated, and the breeze brought a coolness unique to summer evenings.
Shen Guzhi stood in the courtyard, drawing and painting under the tree, while Pei Ye bent over, picked up the books that had been drying for a day, neatly put them into the big wooden box, and carried them into the study.
After tossing back and forth for more than half an hour, it was finally cleaned up.
Pei Ye went into the room and changed his clothes. He adjusted his clothes and wore a jade pendant with fringed brocade tassels around his waist. Then he took a jade bone fan and Shi Shiran came out of the room.
"Is the painting finished? Let's go!"
"immediately."
Shen Guzhi lowered his head, dipped the nib of his pen, and lightly drew a stroke of sunset on the rice paper.
Pei Ye held the folding fan and shook it, leaned over to look at the painting from behind him, and Shen Guzhi stepped aside to make it easier for him to look at it.
The tile eaves, the sunset, the horizon, and a cluster of beautiful red begonias poking out from under the rice paper, which are easily overlooked by others.
"Beautiful." Pei Ye squeezed the fan bone and praised.
Shen Guzhi smiled, pulled out the folding fan in his hand, and handed him the small Langhao pen, "Inscription."
Pei Ye held the pen, bit his lip, frowned and thought for a while, then revealed a treacherous smile, sneaked a glance at Shen Guzhi, and stroked his pen with a heavy wrist, in an instant, two lines of beautiful cursive script appeared vividly on the paper.
The courtyard is full of spring colors, and the people are more delicate than Tanghua. '
Shen Guzhi looked at the person who was biting the pen for fun with a half-smile, without bursting the bubble in his mind, glanced at the words that hadn't dried yet, and said with a smile, "That's right. , hang it in the bedroom."
Pei Ye happily picked up the painting and dried it, Shen Guzhi turned and went back to his room to change clothes.
When Pei Ye came back from hanging the paintings, Shen Guzhi had just changed into his clothes, and the two walked out of the mansion side by side.
***
Qixi Festival is a big day in Jiangnan.
Before it got dark, the glazed lanterns and thin paper lanterns on the street had already been hung up early.
Pei Ye looked at the girls and boys passing by holding flowers on the street, and his heart was also infected with the joy of the festival.
Running to the old man holding a shelf on the street corner to buy colorful ropes, Pei Ye excitedly handed out a piece of silver, "Old man, two colorful ropes!"
"I don't need so much, two copper coins are enough!" The old man, who was carrying colorful ropes, stepped back and waved his hands with a smile.
"It's okay, I don't have any copper coins, so I don't need to look for them anymore."
"How can this be done!" The old uncle with a rough face raised his hand and took out two colorful ropes and handed them over, accusing with a smile in his eyes, "Young people don't know how to save, and they all spend money lavishly, here, uncle will send you Yes! Have a good night!"
Pei Ye looked at the two colorful ropes that the old man handed over, and his weather-beaten face, and suddenly thought of Master Pei, and his heart was touched.Turning his eyes, he said, "There are a lot of us, uncle, sell me all these flower ropes!"
"Didn't you just want two?" The old man looked at him suspiciously.
Pei Ye turned his head and pointed to Shen Guzhi who was behind him, half-truthfully said, "I originally bought it for the two of us, but I'm going to play with friends later, so it's not good for the two of us to carry it."
"Really?" the old man wondered.
"Of course!" Pei Ye patted his chest and assured, "Aren't you in business, why do you always push out the door-to-door business?!"
The old man blushed, and shyly said while holding the flower rope stand, "I've never done business before, it's our old lady who said it's Qixi Festival, try rubbing some flower rope..."
Pei Ye smiled and handed over the broken silver in his hand, "It's such a great day, you can't let the old lady stay at home alone."
The old man who sold flower ropes squinted his eyes and had a good time. He readily took Pei Ye's money and handed it to him along with the shelf in his hand. "Then thank you, young man!"
"We should be the ones thanking you!" Pei Ye smiled and took the flower rope stand and put it on his shoulders, waved at the old man, turned and ran towards Shen Guzhi.
Standing under the lanterns all over the street, Shen Guzhi watched Pei Ye happily running over with a basket of flower ropes on his shoulders. He had a good time, and couldn't help feeling soft in his heart.
"Buy two flower ropes, and even move the flower rope shelf?"
Shen Guzhi rubbed Pei Ye's upturned forehead hair, teasing, "Prodigal Madam."
Pei Ye blushed and pretended to snort coldly, turned his head, and walked forward happily carrying the flower rope shelf.
Shen Guzhi smiled and followed behind him, ignoring the strange eyes of others looking at them.
The beautiful and wealthy young master, carrying a flower rope frame that was incompatible with him, and the handsome and handsome young man beside him walked to the riverside where the lanterns were placed.
Finding a soft river bed, Pei Ye inserted the frame of the flower rope heavily into the river. A gust of breeze blew by, and the colorful flower ropes floated leisurely along with the weeping willows by the river.
Standing on the bank of the river, Pei Ye leaned forward to get close to it, carefully found two flower ropes that he thought were the most beautiful, pulled them off, tied one to his wrist, and straightened the other with both hands, turned around and looked at Shen Guzhi with a smile. .
Shen Guzhi frowned, raised the corners of his lips, and gently raised his wrist.
Being bedridden for a long time made his skin look morbidly fair. Pei Ye lowered his head and carefully helped him tie the colorful flower ropes, which made his thin and fair wrists more attractive.
Shen Guzhi looked at his drooping eyelashes with a smile, his heart was soft and messed up.
After tying up the multicolored ropes, Pei Ye turned and ran back to the river bank, grabbing eleven, two or three of them with a sharp swish.
When Shen Yi arrived at Shen Qi, and Father Pei went to Zheliu to find the piano, Pei Ye prepared a flower rope for them!
As for the others, let them float above the Lantern River with the night wind~
After Pei Ye tossed the colorful flower ropes, the night had already darkened a bit, and there were more people coming and going on the street, men and women, laughing and laughing, holding lanterns, came along the river.
"We're going to buy a lantern, too."
Shen Guzhi proposed, and Pei Ye happily agreed, without even looking at the flower rope frame that had been carried so hard all the way and inserted by the river, he dragged Shen Guzhi to the street where he bought lanterns.
All the glazed lanterns on the street have been lit up, and other beautiful lanterns made of thin paper are inserted in the middle, and the whole long street is bustling with activity.
Pei Ye dragged Shen Guzhi to the place where river lamps were sold, five cents a lamp, and he could write his own inscriptions.
Pei Ye excitedly bought two, and stood with Shen Guzhi on the side of the busy street, each writing with a brush.
After writing their little wishes, the shopkeeper lit up the river lanterns for them, Shen Guzhi took Pei Ye to thank them, and walked side by side to the river bank in the gentle night wind.
The long river bank has already been crowded with people, and the lanterns in the river are dotted, reflecting the water waves, which is very beautiful. The lively and lovely girls are standing on the river bank, chattering, laughing at each other, and moving their river lanterns to the distance. .
Pei Ye and Shen Guzhi happily walked for a long time with two river lanterns in their hands, before they found a place with few people on the upper river bank.
Squatting by the river, Pei Ye carefully put his river lantern into the water, turned around and raised his head, to pick up Shen Guzhi's river lantern behind him, Shen Guzhi smiled and handed him the river lantern with the flickering candle in his hand.
Pei Ye frowned and laughed and took it, then turned to peek at what was written on the back.
A slightly cool palm covered his eyes, and Shen Guzhi's faint voice sounded behind him with a smile, "Put it down."
"mean......"
Pei Ye curled his lips, fumbled to put the river lantern into the river in front of him, pushed it lightly, and then Shen Guzhi put down the palm covering his eyes.
The two river lanterns bumped into each other floatingly, Pei Ye picked up the water and sent it forward, the two river lanterns flickered with soft candlelight, and drifted towards the middle of the river unsteadily together... ...
"Okay!" Pei Ye clapped his hands and stood up, with a satisfied face, "The long-cherished wish has come true, go home!"
"Who said that?"
Shen Guzhi smiled and blocked the steps he was about to take.
"Huh?" Pei Ye blinked.
As if by magic, Shen Guzhi took out a writing brush with Kodan from behind him...
Pei Ye's expression changed, and he turned around and wanted to run, but Shen Guzhi wrapped his arms around his waist and held him tightly in his arms.
"Don't you like this custom very much?"
Shen Guzhi wrapped his arms around his waist with a smile on his face, and lowered his head to find his forehead while holding a pen.
Pei Ye's whole body was nestled in Shen Guzhi's arms, but he didn't dare to push him hard, so he put his hands on his chest, raised his head and bent back, trying to stay away from the vermilion pen tip that was about to come up.
"But this is what the little girl ordered!!!"
Pei Ye's waist was locked in Shen Guzhi's arms, with both hands trying to press against Shen Guzhi's chest, he shouted anxiously.
"Crooked."
Shen Guzhi's faint voice fell softly, and Pei Ye froze instantly.
The cold tip of the pen touched his forehead, and lightly drew a stroke, and then Shen Gu Zhi's cheerful voice sounded with a smile, "It's done."
Let go of the stiff Pei Ye, take a step back after Shen Gu, and enjoy his new work in a leisurely manner.
On the fair forehead, a flaming red flower was reflected between the eyebrows, bright but not coquettish, warm but not obtrusive, against the red cheeks of that man, it was very beautiful.
"you!!!"
Pei Ye glared at Shen Guzhi in shame and anger, and raised his hand to touch his forehead.
"Want to draw again?" Shen Guzhi narrowed his eyes dangerously, smiled and raised the vermilion brush in his hand.
Pei Ye put down his hand angrily, and gave him a hard look, "There are so many people on the street, how can you tell me to go back later?!"
Shen Guzhi lowered his head and patted his forehead, "That's all right."
"Really?" Pei Ye's eyes lit up, he ran to the bank of the river and lowered his head to look at the reflection in the water carefully, "It's really covered!"
Shen Guzhi smiled and said, "Okay, it's time to go home."
Pei Ye happily turned around, ran to his side, and walked slowly side by side in the breeze of summer night.
"I originally prepared a gift for you, but you actually gave me some flowers! So the gift is gone!"
"The warm jade in your sleeve and Tilian?"
"how do you know?!"
"I saw it."
"..."
"..."
"Ahhhh!! Give it back to me! Didn't I give it to you, okay?!!...you eh! oh oh..."
The night wind blew across the river, disturbing a pair of lamp shadows, and the river willows swayed, mottled the human voice in the night wind...
