[1] "Jade Crossing Branches. Jiao Hong Ji-Shang Que" Meng Chengshun. Yuan Song
Suddenly seeing the angels descending,
The beauty is full of clouds and clouds.
The natural national color is extraordinary,
See her thin and Lingbo stepping to the middle hall [1].
Grandpa and grandma looked at each other and sighed: "Oh! There have been too many things at home in the past few years, and I didn't want to talk about your cousin's marriage. So, we haven't met a satisfactory marriage so far, and this has become a concern for us .¡±
Wenxiu asked tentatively: "I don't know, grandpa, grandma, what kind of family do you want to marry my cousin to?"
Grandpa laughed and said: "If you want to be worthy of a mandarin duck, unless the talent on the east bed looks like my grandson."
He does not mean that.
Hearing this, Wen Xiu felt as if she had eaten honey, and said casually: "I haven't seen my cousin for many years, I wonder if my sister recognizes me?"
Aunt Zhao Shuxian said to a big girl standing beside her, "Yingzi, please go and ask Miss to see Third Brother."
The maid named Hongying glanced at Wenxiu and left in response.
Seeing the maid Hong Yingxing with crescent eyebrows, apricot face and peach cheeks, black brows and cherry mouth, slender shoulders and thin waist, Wen Xiu couldn't help thinking to herself: "The maid of Grandpa's house is also so beautiful, at first I thought it was Wen Jiao. Woolen cloth."
Not long after, Hongying returned, but Wen Jiao was nowhere to be seen behind her.
Hongying walked quickly to Shuxian's side and bent her ear: "Ma'am, Xiaohui said that Miss just got out of the bath and hasn't dressed yet, so it's inconvenient to come out to meet guests."
Zhao Shuxian frowned, and said, "Third brother is from my own family, so why doesn't it matter if I don't dress up and meet up first when I come out?"
After hearing this, Wenxiu laughed quickly and said, "My niece, my nephew is fine, just wait a little longer."
Zhao Shuxian sneered and said, "Yingqing is getting older, so she knows she's shy. Third brother, wait a moment, she will come out soon" Turning her face, she said to Hongying, "My brother is not an outsider, tell her Come quickly."
At this time, Wang Zhong reported that the banquet had been prepared.
Sun Zhizhi ordered the maidservant to hold a banquet on the middle hall, then turned to Wenxiu and said, "Houqing, let's have some light food first, let's chat while eating."
As soon as grandma beckoned, the little girls brought over the copper washbasin and towels filled with hot water, and placed them in front of the host and guest.
Wenxiu washed her hands and face, then followed her grandfather into the middle hall.
In the center of the nave is a big Eight Immortals table [2]. Grandpa and grandma sat on the main seat in the north, Wenxiu sat next to grandpa¡¯s right side, Zhao Shuxian sat next to grandma¡¯s left side, Wen Shan followed Shuxian, and there were two empty seats below , naturally it was reserved for Wen Jiao, but I don't know who took the other seat.
After Wenxiu sat down, she poured wine for her grandfather and grandmother. Sun Zhizhi couldn't help but feel happy because his nephew came from afar, so he started drinking happily.
After drinking for three rounds, it's time for Wenxiu to toast.
The maid filled them all with wine, Wenxiu picked up the wine glass and was about to stand up, but his body stopped, but his eyes gradually released a strange brilliance following the beautiful figures coming from the left wing room.
? I saw Hongying walking in with the help of a curvy beauty.
But seeing her crescent eyebrows sweeping away, her beautiful eyes are like a pool of autumn water, like anger or joy, resentment or admiration, just one look, and the soul will be taken away by it; Vermilion is red, the skin is white without powder, a black cloud is loosely tied into a ponytail, and a trembling crested golden step is on the side of the bun; the upper body is wearing a big red Shu brocade lotus root silk dress, and an orange The yellow pleated skirt is really demure like a delicate flower shining in the water, and moves like a weak willow supporting the wind.

? Emerald face gives birth to spring jade with fragrance,
Then the picture of the beauty is not a lie.
? It is fierce to teach people to be insane,
It can teach people to be infatuated.
Wenxiu examined it carefully, and could vaguely see the shadow of Wenjiao's childhood.
He thought to himself: Yan thin and fat, Xizi is beautiful, Zhaojun is gorgeous, but they are all beauties in poems and paintings. When I saw my cousin today, I realized that Wang Jinggong's sentence "The painting cannot be done because of the mentality" is not a lie.
At this moment, Wen Qing couldn't help shaking his eyes and heart, and his soul was scattered to the sky.
Just in this trance, Wen Jiao moved lightly with lotus steps and came to her mother's side.
Zhao Shuxian greeted: "Jiaoer, meet your third brother soon."
Wen Jiao lowered her head and bowed her head, and said a happy blessing, "The third brother came from a long way, it is very hard work, the younger sister is very polite."
Like the language of swallows, like the voice of a warbler, Wenxiu has never heard such a mellow and charming voice in her life, and she only feels it in her heart.Itchy, crispy.
Wenxiu hurriedly stood up and returned the salute: "Your cousin is very polite."
Instinctively, a faint fragrance penetrated into her heart, Wenxiu raised her head and looked at each other, only to see Wenjiao was looking at her gracefully.
Wen Jiao's face was reddish, and she sat down gracefully, and Hong Ying sat beside her.
Zhao Shuxian looked at her daughter lovingly and urged softly: "The third brother came from a long way, Jiaoer can persuade your brother to drink more wine."
Wen Jiao got up and filled a glass of wine, holding it in front of Wenxiu, she whispered, "Third brother, please drink this glass of thin wine."
Seeing this, Wenxiu was flattered, she hurriedly stood up, took the wine glass with both hands, said, "Thank you, sister," and drank it down in one gulp.

Notes
[1] Zhongtang
The theory of Zhongtang began in the Northern Song Dynasty, and one in the Tang Dynasty.
? In the Tang and Song Dynasties, Zhengshitang was built in Zhongshu Province, where the prime minister handled government affairs. Zhongtang got its name because the prime minister worked in Zhongshu Province, and it was also called Zhongtang later. Zhongtang is also an art form of calligraphy and painting. More people define the nave as the reception room in the home, and the hall in the center, that is, the living room.
[2] Table of Eight Immortals
One of the traditional furniture of the Chinese nation. Refers to a square table with the same length on all four sides of the tabletop and a wider tabletop. The four sides of the large square table can seat two people on each side, and eight people can sit on the four sides (like the Eight Immortals), so it is commonly known as the Eight Immortals Table in Chinese folk.
The history of several cases of furniture can be traced back at least to the time of the Yu family. At that time, it was called Zu, and it was mostly used for sacrifices. The name of the case did not appear until the late Zhou Dynasty. Song Gaocheng selected "Wu Shi Ji Yuan": "There were Zu in the three dynasties of Yu, but there was no case, and the name of the table began in the Warring States Period." The name of the table only came into being in the Five Dynasties. The Eight Immortals table that can be tested today has appeared at least in the Liao and Jin Dynasties, and prevailed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially in the Qing Dynasty, no matter whether it is a high-ranking official or a commoner, almost every family can find the shadow of the Eight Immortals table, and even became the only large furniture in many families. .
