Muxiang Mountain is famous for planting osmanthus trees everywhere.

Muxiang Pavilion is actually a small teahouse at the foot of the mountain, hidden among the blooming osmanthus trees.

"This Muxi Mountain is better looking during the day!" Dan Tai Furong patted the stone pier in front of the Muxi Pavilion. It was a small stone cat with a rough feel. "The ones planted at the foot of our mountain are all silver osmanthus, and the halfway up the mountain is full of golden osmanthus, and the sharp top of the mountain is full of elixir! Looking from a distance, it looks like a fragrant three-layer snow tower cake! It is still full of osmanthus candy!"

Xizi also smiled and said, "There is a Muxiang Temple on the top of the mountain. It is dedicated to the god of osmanthus. People like us who make fragrance and dew have to go to this temple to pray for blessings when the osmanthus flowers bloom!"

Dan Tai Furong also nodded: "We are also making rouge and water powder, and the offerings made for the Osmanthus God must be fragrant flower snacks!"

Xiaoxiao listened to it rare, and looked at the silver osmanthus branches next to the teahouse as snow as snow, and the sweet fragrance was refreshing. I only regretted that I didn’t find this place earlier.

Someone stood with his hands behind his back under the eaves of Muxiang Pavilion, and the snow-white cloak was coated with a layer of bright silver by the full moon tonight.

"Wen Xizi, you brothers are really different. "Dan Tai Furong never speaks, "Your cousin loves to laugh very much, and your biological brother is particularly unhappy."

The person who is particularly unhappy with laughter smiled slightly at this moment. Seeing that Xiaoxiao smiled, he couldn't help but smile.

Muxiang Pavilion is in the form of open pavilions. At this time, autumn is coming, most of the terraces are equipped with floor-to-ceiling glass, and only a few sides are hanging paper tents.

Several people walked to the door of the paper tent and saw the full moon and the mountain tops on it, and there was a long rooster like blue smoke. The two girls rolled up the paper tent from both ends, which was considered lifting the curtain.

The teahouse was very lively, with fiery red cockscombs everywhere. In addition to Wen Xiding and Wen Zhi, there were two young masters from the Dan Tai family. It turned out that these people were all burning incense for the god of osmanthus on the full moon night.

Can God Gui also be understood as the God of Cosmetics...

A long wooden table stands in the middle of the teahouse. The woodcut vase on the table also contains osmanthus flowers. There are also paper tubes, promotion pictures, various chess boards and other game tools.

Everyone was not restricted by sitting by the tea table and chatting and laughing, especially the two young masters of Tan Tai were a little younger than Xiaoxiao, so there was nothing to avoid.

After flying for a few rounds of Hualing, Wen Xidian felt it was boring, so he took the initiative to play the game "seeking truth and seeking danger". Several people from the Dan Tai family had never played it before, so they were even more curious to try it.

Xiaoxiao sat beside Xizi, and suddenly felt that Xizi pulled his sleeve, as if he was signaling to go out to speak.

After the two of them left the table temporarily and walked out of the teahouse, they found that Wen Xixiu was also pulled out by Xizi.

Xizi smiled in the moonlight: "Will you not explain anything to us before leaving? Our Xianglu shop has not had a meeting for some days."

"Let's go?" Xiaoxiao was puzzled for a moment and looked at Wen Xixiu: "Where is Brother Wen going?"

"We are going to the Western Regions, where we will hold a ten-year spice conference." Xizi answered for his brother, "The conference is scheduled for April next year."

"When are you planning to leave?" Xiaoxiao thought about the location of the Western Regions. It should be in the Dunhuang area. If you set out from Kyoto, you will always be there for more than two months.

"You have to wait until my second brother gets married before you can leave," Xizi smiled unconsciously when she saw Xiaoxiao asking: "The good days for my second brother are set on the sixth day of the winter month."

Xiaoxiao said: "Winter month is over, it is the twelfth lunar month. Wouldn't it be the New Year?"

Wen Xixiu said nothing, and Xiaoxiao also felt that he talked very little today.

Xizi smiled and said, "So you have to wait for the New Year to set off. Spring is coming, and it gets warmer and warmer. The spice conference will only take half a month, and you should be back before the rainy season next year."

"Oh, this is better." Xiaoxiao also felt that it would be a big deal if he was spending the New Year outside.

"That's right, it will be half a year since we left. Our spice shop has to be supported by Yingyuan's help." Xizi smiled naughtyly.

"If we still launch a series of new fragrances according to each season, then the fragrances we designed should be able to be scheduled until the end of next year." Xiaoxiao was not worried about this, "In addition, there are Xizi and Brother, we dare not say innovation, so it should be fine to make steady progress."

Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Xixiu's eyes and always felt that he seemed to have something to say to him.

Xizi coughed lightly twice, then suddenly put his hand behind his ear and listened to the room: "Hey? Furong seems to be calling me? I'll go in and take a look. You guys are talking about the incense shop first." As he said that, he replied and returned to the teahouse.

Is Dan Tai Furong calling him Xizi? Why didn’t Xiaoxiao hear it?

At this time, the two of them were standing on the wooden steps outside the teahouse. The lush silver osmanthus was covered with clouds and snow. The taste was lighter than the golden osmanthus, which was comfortable and sweet.

The moon is still hanging in the sky with confidence, as if reuniting everything in the world.

"The Zhang family and Zeng family, who opened the seal club, are both determined to make paintings and magazines, and they design paper and pictures very exquisitely, which can almost be used as collections." Wen Xixiu said his opening remarks like this.

Xiaoxiao did not expect that the ancients had such a sharp sense of business. He had just launched a graphic issue and someone wanted to imitate it.

"Luckily, they did not realize the true meaning of newspapers." Wen Xixiu looked at the expression of Xiaoxiao's still calmness and smiled faintly.

Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "It seems that I asked my fourth brother to manage the newspapers for me at that time, and I really found the right person."

"I found the right person in my incense shop at the beginning."

Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Xixiu's eyes and said seriously: "The Fourth Brother must be looking forward to this spice conference, right?"

Wen Xixiu did not dodge his eyes: "Yes, I have been looking forward to it for ten years."

Wouldn't that be expected every moment? It seems that this is a must-have.

"?Do you go with me?"

"He stays and will work with you to take care of the shop." Wen Xixiu supported the wooden railing beside the steps and sniffed the silver osmanthus hanging down to his temples: "The osmanthus fragrance dew in this autumn sells very well. You can try the osmanthus fragrance dew next autumn. The smell of osmanthus leaves is also intriguing."

"Next autumn?" Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Xixiu in confusion, "When will the fourth brother leave? When will he return to Beijing?"

"I set off on the third day of September. In addition to attending the spice conference, I also plan to go to Persia to find the fragrance of Yinxiang. It is said that the spice will only be available in autumn." Wen Xixiu told the truth for the first time.

Ancient Persia was today's Iran, and it was still a long way from Dunhuang in the Western Regions.

"Fourth brother... is not planning to attend the second brother's wedding?" Xiaoxiao settled the score in his heart. It would take at least one year for him to go there.

“There are many winter spices worth collecting in the Western Regions, and I don’t want to miss the perfect opportunity.”

"They don't know about this?"

"I don't plan to speak anymore, so I won't be able to listen to others' advice."

Xiaoxiao looked at the man in front of him, it was rare that he trusted himself like this.

"What Brother Wen is so worried about, even if you say it."

Wen Xixiu's mouth raised slightly, knowing that this person would not comfort himself as hard as others. Or perhaps, only this person knew what he really wanted.

Wen Xixiu looked at the girl in front of him seriously: "Business is second, I just don't feel relieved about Xizi."

Xiaoxiao was stunned and instantly thought of Shi Zuimo's incident, but he had promised to keep it a secret for Xizi, so he could only remain silent at this time.

"A few days ago, a female student came to me and talked about Xizi and the painter. I didn't interfere too much, but I couldn't feel at ease." At this time, Wen Xixiu was a brother who was worried about her sister.

The other party had already said this to such an extent, and Xiaoxiao could only tell her: "I have heard Xizi say something about this. In my opinion, she has not been involved in it yet. Moreover, the painter has gone to Lushan and will take more than two months to come back. Maybe this matter will be a little less at that time."

"I am not very opposed to this matter, just because I don't know the painter. If he is a responsible person, he may be able to entrust his life." Wen Xixiu turned his face to the glass window of the teahouse and looked at Xizi who was smiling inside.

Xiaoxiao did not expect that Wen Xixiu was such an open-minded person. He thought that Xizi and any painter would be opposed by the entire Wen family. However, it turned out that Wen Xixiu also had another side.

"In the year when I was away, such things were developing in an irreversible direction. You can tell me about my third brother. At least he won't make things worse." Wen Xixiu looked at Wen Zhi, who was chatting and laughing in the teahouse, without saying anything more.

"Okay," Xiaoxiao's cloak was blown up by the night wind, "I don't like that person, maybe it's because of my identity."

Wen Xixiu's eyes were a little complicated, but when she looked at Xiaoxiao, she returned to her previous clarity: "I hope he is a good person. It's rare that my sister is so serious."

Xiaoxiao talked so much with Wen Xixiu for the first time, and she was a little moved at this moment, for this touching brotherly relationship.

The wind raised Xiaoxiao's cloak like a translucent sail.

Wen Xixiu looked at the girl in front of her and wanted to say that the other person looked like a fairy, but when he said that, he turned into: "This cloak is like a full moon."

Xiaoxiao smiled: "This is the moon-clothing. The whole piece is opened and spread on the ground, and it is a full moon."

It sounds so beautiful, Wen Xixiu couldn't help but say, "Wearing tonight is the same as the moon."

Xiaoxiao thought of the moon board he touched tonight, and the words written on it were also "human and moon are full", so he felt it was a good omen.

Someone in the teahouse was finally calling himself: "Tang Yingyuan! Come in!"

When you hear the sound, you will know that it is Dan Tai Furong.

Xiaoxiao took two steps up the steps, and finally stopped in front of the paper tent, standing under the full moon that was painted: "On the third day of the September 19th, can I send my fourth brother to you?"

"I will pass by Wenjia Xiangshang by then and will set out at about Xu hour." Wen Xixiu looked at him and smiled.

"Even if the fourth brother is far away by then, he might be able to communicate."

"It's OK." Wen Xixiu nodded and suddenly said: "I just wanted to ask, the forbidden step that Yingyuan wore looks very familiar."

Xiaoxiao looked down at his pressing skirt. Because the full moon jade she was wearing before was too heavy, she changed it after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and finally chose a mutton fat jade carved into a jade rabbit: "No wonder the fourth brother looked familiar. This is the gift given to me by Aunt Wen."
