It’s March 3rd again, and kites are flying all over the sky. (《》)
On this day, the Queen Mother in heaven will hold a peach party, and the little ladies on earth will also put on beautiful and bold dresses, wear gorgeous headdresses on their temples, and put small and delicate flower buds on their white and tender foreheads.
As time passed to the Song Dynasty, women's attire was simple and subtle. However, on March 3rd, the young ladies dressed themselves up with the most gorgeous makeup, and were not afraid to show off their white arms and perfect necks, because
This day is Doll's Day, a day for girls to go on outings and date their sweethearts.
Although the boys and girls of this era were not as enthusiastic and unrestrained as in the Tang Dynasty, they could still enjoy the sweet fragrance of free love.
Starting from early morning, there are many women's sedans and cars, as well as an even larger number of young men and women, walking from the various gates of Meizhou City to the suburbs with endless spring. It is the peak of spring, wandering around the mountains and rivers
For a moment, the mountains are as colorful as moths, the flowers are as bright as cheeks, and the warm wind is like wine, which is intoxicating.
Boys and girls fold green hairpins and red hairpins, search for incense, find favorite places to enjoy, fly kites, throw hydrangeas, chase and play... There are even pairs of young men and women, side by side, holding hands.
, wandering in the woods and waterside, flowers greeting the wild scenery, or whispering, or expressing affection with eyebrows. If the love is so strong that you can't help yourself, then find a place where the curtains cover the wilderness and the canopy becomes a shade, and do something.
If you love to do something, you will cry softly and have endless joy... It is not something shocking to the world.
When you are tired of playing, you can sit under the weeping willows and next to the green garden, where you can enjoy drinks and meals with cups and plates. The food vendors accompany the people who are in the mood for fun, selling all kinds of exquisite snacks, drinks and cold food... There are also jewelry and noodles.
, gouache and rouge, astute vendors naturally know that on a day like today, men must make their faces look fat and make beauties smile.

In a flat place with lush flowers and green water, seven or eight pairs of young men and women were sitting around an oversized tablecloth filled with food.
The girls sat around in twos and threes. Some smiled coquettishly and accepted the flowers collected by their male companions. Some used scented handkerchiefs to wipe their sweat from their male companions. Others sat in pairs and sat on their knees, whispering tender and affectionate words.
of.Temple
But in short, compared to their passionate peers, this group of men and women are much more reserved. Especially there are two outstanding women who just sit together and talk, ignoring the flattering bees and butterflies beside them.
The two women were both seventeen or eighteen years old. One was dressed as a bride, and was handsome and elegant. The other was unmarried, with black bangs, a picturesque face, a charming smile, and something to say.
Unrivaled in its agility and refinement.
Her beautiful eyes, every frown and smile, made a rich and rich man next to her, who was swayed and fascinated, but it was a pity that the beautiful woman was kind to everyone, but she was not hypocritical to him.
Seeing his dejected look, a handsome man in his twenties with thick eyebrows and big eyes patted him with the folding fan in his hand and said: "Brother Lei, there is no grass anywhere in the world, why do you have to find it at my house?"
Woolen cloth?"
"Zizhan, since I saw your little sister two years ago," the wealthy young man turned around and said with a look of infatuation, "I feel that all the women in this world are vulgar and vulgar, even if the grass is luxuriant,
What does it have to do with me?"
"It's also the seed of infatuation." The person who was called Zizhan was naturally Su Shi. At this age, he was only twenty years old. After the Spring Festival this year, he was given the nickname "Zizhan" by his mentor and father-in-law Wang Fang.
The woman dressed as a bride is his new wife, Wang Fu, whom Su Shi has had a crush on for many years.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's just that I said it before," Su Shi sighed: "My girl's heart has been taken away long ago, and you can't get it."
"Yes, that's what you said two years ago." This young man named Lei, named Lei Fang, is the son of Lei Jianfu, the magistrate of Meizhou. When Lei Zhizhou was the governor of another county, he was very close to Su Xun.
.Moved to Meizhou two years ago, and became a good friend of the whole family. Lei Fang also fell in love with his little sister when he saw him at that time: "But I have found out clearly about the engagement between Cheng Shilang and the Liu family."
, it has not been lifted yet..."
"..." The smile on Su Shi's face suddenly solidified. ""
"What's more, he is now a young hero who outsmarted the Kunlun Pass, a favorite disciple of Duke Ouyang, and has been an acquaintance with Prime Minister Di Shu for many years. Even today's officials have written prefaces for his books. He is a very popular figure!"
Lei Fang looked anxious for your family and said: "People can change, do you still think he is still a stupid boy from Meishan County?!
"No," Su Shi shook his head and said, "You don't understand him."
"Then why didn't you come back after three years of leaving Sichuan?" Lei Fang's words left Su Shi speechless.
"Master Lei, do you think he went out to Sichuan for an outing?" Su Xiaomei had actually been listening, and finally couldn't help it. She said angrily, "It's difficult to go out for a long time. Who did you hear to say that you came back that year?"
"I heard what you said..." Lei Fang had a young man's temper. He retorted and then immediately relented and said, "Little sister, you originally said that he would come back as soon as he finished his work."
"If Mr. Ouyang wants to accept you as his disciple, will you come back in a hurry?
"I……"
"If the official wrote a preface to a book given to you by the imperial court and had it published by the imperial court, would you be able to come back in a hurry?"
"I……"
"If wherever you go, there are a group of gentry waiting to pick you up and take you on a sightseeing tour. How can you come back in a hurry?"
"I..." Lei Fang finally held back his energy and said, "For the sake of my sweetheart...I will."
"You..." The little girl bit her lower lip, her expression obviously darkened, and she sneered: "You don't have to be responsible for what you say..."
"What I said is true..." Feeling that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, Su Shi quickly pulled Lei Fang away and said, "Let's go have a drink over there."
"Zizhan, can you trust me?"
"I believe it, what's the use, you don't like me..."
After Lei Fang was pulled away, the little girl uttered two words angrily: "Boring!"
Wang Fu gently held his sister-in-law's hand and said, "Are you okay?"
"It doesn't matter what he says to me." The younger sister said angrily, "But if you say one thing to Third Brother, I will never pay attention to him again." The two of them are not only sisters-in-law, but also classmates for many years, so there is no need to hide their feelings.
"What kind of blessing has Chen Sanlang achieved in his life?" Wang Fu sighed in his heart: "My talented and beautiful girl is actually valued more highly than myself." Thinking of this, she whispered: "Next month, it will be
It’s your eighteenth birthday…”
"Well..." When the little girl heard this, she lowered her slender neck, her face filled with sadness. She touched the hairpin on her head. This action had been repeated for three years and had already become a habit.
Three full years have passed since that person left...
"On the family side, we will naturally help and persuade you," Wang Fu sighed softly, "But you can't just wait like this, right?" What she means is, don't you be so stubborn?
Su Xun was naturally very angry about the Chen family's delay in getting things done and wasting up his daughter's youth. He almost even erected a monument, which made the Chen family and his son notorious.
But because of Banniang's lesson, he didn't want to force his daughter anymore, so he postponed it until now. But Su Xun was also angry. At the latest, he would wait until his little sister was eighteen. Even if it was one day after eighteen, he would
Sanlang never wants to see his little sister again!
Under such circumstances, the relationship between father and daughter is naturally not much better. The former best friend has become a sister-in-law, and has no choice but to shoulder the unpopular role of lobbyist. Wang Fu has recently been urging his younger sister not to put all her heart on others.
You have to keep some of it on your body.
"Well, sister-in-law is right." Then he saw the younger sister nodded and said, "If he doesn't come back..."
"What are you doing?"
"I'll pack up and go find him!" the younger sister said with determination on her pretty face.
"Why bother yourself?" Wang Fu sighed quietly: "We women must be responsible for ourselves!"
"Sister-in-law, this is exactly what you are responsible for!" The younger sister raised her head and said with sparkling eyes: "For us women, is there anything more important than catching the person we love?"
"..." Wang Fu was speechless for a long time, and finally whispered: "You are not afraid that if we meet him, he has changed his mind."
"No," the younger sister laughed and said foolishly, "He told me personally, 'I can rest assured,' so I will rest assured, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless he says anything to me again..." The little sister's nose became sore and tears came down. She lightly hit Wang Fu and said, "I hate it. Just thinking about it, it's like being stabbed with a knife."
"Alas..." Wang Fu gently held her arm and said no more.

When the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the treetops, the young men and women, who had finally enjoyed themselves after a day of playing, staggered drunkenly back to the city. In the mountains and fields, on the lawns, and in the dense forests, hairpins and earrings were left everywhere, with pearls and greenery everywhere, echoing with the thick atmosphere.
Strong spring feeling.
The younger sister and her group came by car, but many of them drank too much, so they suggested taking a walk to sober up. She watched her brother Zizhan, supported by his sister-in-law Wang Fu, reciting poems loudly and dancing.
The elder brother, Ziyou, and the second sister-in-law, Shi Shi, were holding hands and laughing at the side...Su Xun's temper could not bear to hold two weddings, so he asked his two sons to hold the ceremony together.
The girl who was matched with Su Zhe was the daughter of Su Laoquan's cousin, who was also Su Zhe's cousin. She was gentle, approachable, well-educated, and could not hear the couple talking all day long, but she was very nice to you and me.
Looking at others, who were also in pairs, and only herself, alone, the little girl couldn't help sighing, looking at the colorful clouds in the sky, it seemed that that hateful face had transformed into one, and she wanted to take a bite.
"Little sister." Lei Fang came up to me shamelessly and said with a shy face: "You are tired from walking, you might as well get in the car and have a rest."
"So weak..." The little girl gave him a roll of her eyes and a back view.
