After Wei Shao left Dongjun early that morning, several months passed in a blink of an eye.

Winter comes and spring comes, and the season enters March.

Ji Chun, "Tong Shihua, Ping Shisheng, Ming dove fluttering its feathers, Dai Sheng surrenders to mulberry", everything is so vibrant, on the third day of the third lunar month, the Shangsi Festival also comes again with the spring letter.

Shangsi is the day of the spring bath. As early as the pre-Qin era, on this day, the southern countries had the custom of slaughtering, men and women, young and old, came out of the city, came to the riverside in the suburbs, and dipped orchids in their hands and sprinkled the whole body with water, and washed their hair and skin with bare feet. The old year is ominous, I hope to eliminate disasters and diseases, and have a new beginning in the year.

It's Doll's Day again. In the past, when Xiao Qiao was still at home and her mother was still alive, in March every year, her mother and Mrs. Ding would bring their daughters to the Flower Temple in the south of the city to participate in the Spring Festival of the Flower God with the people, to serve their daughters. Pray for peace.

Since the death of Xiao Qiao's mother, the Qiao family has been busy for so many years, and the Spring Festival has stopped.

This year is different. Although the Qiao family has just experienced a huge change, it seems like a new life. The two sisters, big and small, together with a pair of children, gathered at home. Just two days ago, Bi She also came back from the south and passed by Dongjun to visit his wife. Son, still at home today, Mrs. Ding's mood was out of the haze early, and she was ready to take sisters Shuangqiao to celebrate this long-lost Girls' Day.

Early in the morning, outside the gate of Qiao's house, the carriage decorated with last night's newly picked orchids was parked. Jia Xi and his guards lined up neatly to the side, patiently waiting for the Qiao family's daughters to go out.

After a while, I heard a burst of cheerful laughter from a woman from afar. Looking up, I saw Mrs. Ding, Da Qiao and the lady being surrounded by a group of maids and maids, the little son Li'er being held by the nurse, and Bi She holding Philip. Philip, a group of people appeared from behind the screen wall.

The lady is wearing a light green and tender willow-colored spring shirt today, with a thin sash of primrose on her shoulders, a slender waist, a large-sleeved skirt with delicate orchid flowers embroidered on the hem, and long black hair in a bun behind her head. Down, bound with a ribbon of the same color as the clothes to prevent being disturbed by the wind. This dress is like a girl, which is both seasonal and elegant, with bright eyes shining like a jewel, and Da Qiao, who is walking with her. The goose yellow spring shirt and the azurite shoulders are also very bright.

The two came side by side talking and laughing, their skirts swaying. Jia Xi didn't dare to take a closer look, so he ordered the guards to retreat to both sides of the gate with him, holding his breath, waiting for the female relatives to go out and board the carriage.

Philip will soon be one year old, and now not only is he more and more loving and loving, but he can also stand by himself, and if he is led, he can even walk a few steps staggeringly. She opened her mouth last month and vaguely called Xiao Qiao Aniang, but now it's very smooth.

Philip's hair has been very thick from the beginning. After the full moon shaved the fetal hair, it is now long before her ears. Today is her first Doll's Day, and she got up early in the morning, and was also carefully dressed by Xiao Qiao: in her hair Divide them into two sides, tie them into small braids, and each has a small silk bow. The bow was made by Chunniang herself, which is vivid and delicate. She was wearing a tender willow-colored skirt of the same texture and color as Xiao Qiao's coat today, with sock-like shoes on her feet. When Chunniang was carried out at first, she was like her brother Li'er, holding a colorful ribbon in one hand. the bluegrass, while holding a piece of plum cake in the other hand.

She has been locked up at home by her mother for several days. She knows that she can go out to play today, and she is still with her favorite brother Li'er. She feels very happy. As soon as she leaves the room, she is always laughing. Tian's uncle Bi She, who was not afraid of life at all, threw himself into his arms. At this moment, Bi She was carried to the gate. When he turned his head, he suddenly saw the familiar Jia Xi standing beside him.

Every time her mother took her out, this uncle would show his face.

So as soon as he saw him, Philip knew that he could go out to play, so he showed him a sweet smile, waved at him, and said something in his mouth.

Bi She stopped. Seeing her cute appearance, Mrs. Ding teased her, "Is Philip going to talk to General Jia?"

Jia Xi also liked Philip very much, so he glanced at the lady quietly, saw that she had stopped, turned his head and looked at with a smile, so he boldly leaned towards Philip.

Philip stretched out her chubby little hand with a few shallow pear dimples on the back, and handed him the plum cake first.

Jia Xi was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, Philip had withdrawn the little hand holding the plum blossom cake, and instead handed the little hand holding the orchid to him.

Passed half, then retracted.

Looking down at the plum cake for a while, and the bluegrass for a while, as if hesitating.

Mrs. Ding and the accompanying nurses and servants also stopped and turned around, looking at Philip in trouble with interest.

Mrs. Ding smiled and said: "Is Philip reluctant?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Feifei seemed to have made up his mind, "Ah woo", took a bite of the plum blossom cake, and then handed the plum blossom cake with a corner missing and the bluegrass to Jia Xi.

Mrs. Ding and the nurses and servants were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't hold back and laughed.

Even Bi She, who has always been steady, also had a smile in his eyes.

Jia Xi was overjoyed in her heart, but she quickly waved her hands and said to Philippe earnestly, "I dare not accept the reward of a little lady in a humble position.

This time, even Xiao Qiao couldn't help it, she burst out laughing and said: "She thinks she is getting close to General Jia. She has just eaten a bite of the plum blossom cake, so forget it, the blue grass General Jia takes it, Jia If the general doesn't pick up, she will keep shouting, and no one will want to go out today."

Jia Xi actually didn't mind eating the plum blossom cake that the little girl had eaten, but she knew that she was not so lucky, so she took the orchid in her other small hand with both hands, and said respectfully, "Thank you, little girl, and thank you girl. ."

When Philip saw that he took the bluegrass, he laughed wildly, and responded to Jia Xi with a few babbles.

Li'er on the side saw that there was no bluegrass in her sister's hand, so she hurriedly handed over her own and said, "Sister, here it is for you."

Li'er is very smart, but she speaks very late. Da Qiao was a little worried before. I didn't expect that after playing with Philip at the end of last year, he was probably passive and liked to babble. He started talking, and once he spoke, he learned a lot of words in just a few months.

It was as if he would have said it before, but he was stuffy in his stomach and refused to say it.

This sentence, "Sister, here it is", said it so clearly that Da Qiao couldn't help laughing and touched his son's head.

Philip was delighted, took the bluegrass with a beautiful purple ribbon from his younger brother, and smiled sweetly at him.

It was a sunny day, and several carriages from the Qiao Mansion filed out of the South Gate and headed for the Flower Temple.

The people of Dongjun have not seen the sight of Shuangshu appearing in the Flower Temple together for many years. I can see it again today, Shuang Shu is stunning and charming. One is the general's wife with green eyes, whom everyone in Dongjun admires, and the other is even more incredible. It has been rumored for a long time that the Marquis of Yan and Wei Shao will dominate the world in the near future. The news spread that Qiao's family Shuangshu was going to attend the Spring Festival at the Shangsi Flower Temple today. The whole city was dispatched today, and everyone flocked here.

Bi She rode in front to clear the way, and Jia Xi was behind, and finally escorted the carriage to the Flower Temple surrounded by Chunxi. The temple Zhu who had been waiting for a long time brought a deacon and hurriedly came to greet him.

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao helped Mrs. Ding to get off the carriage, and the group walked in with a smile on their faces, cheering on both sides of the corridor.

After worshiping the Flower God, the sisters brought Li'er and Philip to the bank of the Spring Stream behind the Flower Temple.

There are too many people today.

The stream is swirling and coiled for several miles. Peach blossoms are planted on both sides of the stream. Apart from this stream, there are many other streams that can be used to wash and celebrate the festival. For the sake of prudence, Jia Xian sealed this place in advance and only put a small amount of it. The women and girls who had undergone medical examinations came in, so it was much quieter than the crowd outside just now.

Xiao Qiao came to the stream, dipped the stream water with bluegrass, and lightly sprinkled a few drops on Feifei's hair to obtain auspicious signs.

Da Qiao did the same, and sprinkled the stream for Li'er. When the siblings were taken by the nurse to play in the nearby pavilion, Xiao Qiao saw Bi She coming here from a distance, standing by the pavilion, turned to look at it, and smiled secretly. Going down, he gently pushed Da Qiao and said, "Go!"

Da Qiao saw her husband coming, but she didn't want to leave Xiao Qiao, so she just pretended not to see it. Seeing Xiao Qiao urging him, his cheeks warmed slightly and said, "I'd better stay here with Amei..."

Xiao Qiao whispered: "Brother-in-law will be leaving again in a few days. It's rare that the weather is good today, and it's not that I have no one to accompany me. Who cares that you are here with me?"

Saying that, he pushed her to Bi She's side.

Bi She said to Da Qiao, "There is a peach blossom forest in front of you. The peach blossoms are blooming very well. Let's go for a walk?"

Da Qiao glanced at Xiao Qiao, saw Xiao Qiao looking at him with a smile, as if urging, and finally nodded.

Bi She smiled slightly, picked up Li'er, nodded respectfully to Xiao Qiao, took his beloved wife, and the three slowly walked towards the Peach Blossom Forest.

Xiao Qiao smiled and watched his family of three gradually disappear. He and Chunniang hugged Feifei, facing the stream and sitting on a stone bench with a handkerchief on the bank.

There was a spring rain just yesterday, and the spring creek swelled and flowed from west to east without haste or slow. There are clusters of water plants, peach blossoms on both sides of the river are in full bloom, a gust of wind blows, the peach blossoms rustled, the petals floated into the stream, and slowly drifted away with the flowing water. On the water, it is very interesting.

With a smile on his face, Xiao Qiao looked at Chunniang and the wet nurse with Philip, pointing her to the group of playful fish, and gradually moved forward along the river bank. She was the only one left, and she became dazed.

I don't know where he is now, or what's going on.

Another gust of wind passed, and a rain of peach blossoms floated overhead.

Half fell into the stream, and half fell on Xiao Qiao's skirt.

She picked up a peach blossom that fell on the hem of her skirt, held it in the palm of her hand, put it under her nose, lowered her head, and took a slight sniff.

When he raised his head, his eyes were fixed.

Just on the other side, on the bank of the stream more than ten feet away, the spring breeze is blowing, the fallen flowers are colorful, and there is a person standing there.

She is at one end of the Peach Blossom Stream, and he is at the other end of the Peach Blossom Stream, looking at each other across the Peach Blossom Stream.

He was dressed in a traveler's clothes, from head to toe, dusty, but his eyes were bright.

He seemed to have just arrived here not long ago.

It was as if she had been standing on the other side like this, looking at her for a long time, but she had never noticed it.

When she finally raised her eyes and cast her gaze towards him, his footsteps suddenly fell into the stream, wading towards her.

The stream gurgled, wetting the corners of his robes, and he walked faster and faster, and his steps became bigger and bigger. Wherever he passed, bursts of white foam appeared on the water.

Not far away, a few girls who were playing under the peach tree with peach branches in their hands also stopped chasing, and looked at this handsome man who seemed to have fallen from the sky and was about to wade towards him. Bo Bo" jumped up.

Xiao Qiao slowly stood up from the stone bench.

The peach blossoms in the skirt fell and scattered with the wind.

She stood under the peach blossom tree on the shore, watching the man step by step wading towards her without blinking, and finally came ashore and stopped for a while.

"I am back."

He stared at her and said.

Xiao Qiao suddenly ran towards him.

He opened his arms, took her without hesitation, and hugged her tightly.

Xiao Qiao's arms also hugged his waist tightly. He pressed his face against his broad chest, closed his eyes, and felt his fast and powerful heartbeat.

Neither of the two said a word, they just hugged each other like this.

The peach blossom rain was like a burst of urgency, fluttering in the wind, and the petals fell on his shoulders and her hair.

a long time.

"Husband—"

Xiao Qiao finally raised her face from his arms, and called him softly with a slightly crying and coquettish tone.

Wei Shao lowered her head and gently wiped her peach-colored eyelids with her fingers.

"Manman, the battle is over. I'm here to pick you up and Philip, and we'll go to Luoyang together. From now on, I will never be separated from you again!"

He stared at her and said word by word.

There were thin tears in Xiao Qiao's eyes, she nodded, and slowly took one of his hands.

Wei Shao shook hands. The **** clasped tightly together.

"I'll take you to Philip. She can call her mother. Would you like to hear her call your father?"

She turned back and smiled at him, with a bright smile, Jiaosheng's head was covered with peach blossoms.
