A few little girls took out their works from behind, there were half grapefruit shells, there were also boats folded with paper, and oval boats made of mud, Youwei smiled and said: "It is indeed not limited to paper boats, as long as they can float, they are all boats." ”

Wang Duofu walked to the lake and squatted down to look at it, and suddenly said: "Now that the lake is showing signs of low tide, quickly release the boat you prepared on the water, otherwise you won't be able to catch up with this low tide!" ”

The girls hurriedly ran to the shore and squatted down with the boat in their hands, suspended the boat in their hands on the water, and waited for Wang Duofu to shout at any time.

Youwei naturally won't lag behind, take it out of the prepared wooden box, it's a wooden plank, like a Chang bream side shape tiled, and then a wooden stick on it, the wooden stick is wrapped around two leather bands, and the tail of the wooden stick has a propeller composed of wood chips, Youwei rotates the propeller until it can't be twisted, and then squats down and does the same as them, waiting for Wang Duofu's order.

Wang Duofu saw that she was ready, and after carefully looking at the water, he immediately said, "Let's start!" Everyone hurriedly put the boat in their hands on the water, naturally Youwei's boat was the fastest, once the propeller was reversed by the rubber band, the small splash was accompanied by the ebb tide, and soon disappeared in the lotus leaf bush not far away.

After everyone's boat floated out for a while, the grapefruit peel was quickly overturned and sunk by the waves, and the paper was also wet by the water and slowly sank, Wang Duofu's paper boat was still floating with the waves to the distance, Youwei noticed that Wang Duofu's paper boat seemed to reflect the light, and then looked at the water to not wet the paper boat, and guessed that Wang Duofu must have wrapped a waterproof membrane with oil or wax in advance.

After everyone's boat sank, Wang Duofu said: "The little lady's boat is the fastest and deserves to be the first!" ”

Everyone smiled and said that the small gifts they prepared were taken out and handed to Youwei one by one, all of them were some purses, handkerchiefs and other things, Youwei didn't have any disgust on her face, smiled and accepted everyone's small gifts, and chatted a few words from time to time, said some witty words, and soon everyone was much closer, Wang Qiaoyun secretly observed on the side, nodded to Wang Duofu, Wang Duofu said happily: "It's not early, sisters, please go back first, the little lady has worked all the way, and she is going to rest, if there is anything fun, you can come tomorrow." ”

Youwei took out the snacks she had prepared and distributed them to the girls, so the girls went back first.

Wang Qiaoyun said to Youwei with a smile: "Little lady, the slave family has prepared a big boat, which is filled with fish and fresh vegetables and fruits in the lake. ”

Youwei said; "Eating on a ship is a lot of fun in itself, and it's a good idea to praise it."

While talking, a boat broke out of the lotus leaf swing, Youwei looked at it from a distance, it was a canopy boat, there was a lady on the boat, dressed in gray clothes, and her head was also wrapped in a blue cloth, she was rowing the boat and slowly rocked over, and when she was in front of her, Wang Duofu helped her down, Youwei looked at this lady, her appearance was somewhat similar to Wang Qiaoyun, and she must be the mother of Wang Qiaoyun and Wang Duofu.

The eldest lady smiled and said to Youwei: "The slave family is the Wang Bai family, and the little lady can call the slave family as the princess." ”

Youwei nodded and called politely: "Aunt Wang." ”

Wang Qiaoyun said to Youwei: "Little lady, get on the boat, dinner is ready." ”

Yiyue and Baoyue helped Youwei up, and Wang Duofu helped Wanniang, Wang Damiang and Wang Qiaoyun up.

The ship was clean, with a log table in the middle, and a round hole in the middle of the table, where a pot was boiling, and the aroma of the pot was bubbling and appetizing.

Aunt Wang led Youwei to sit, and beckoned Wang Duofu to take the dishes and chopsticks, and after Yiyue hugged the moon and took the chopsticks, she asked Aunt Wang: "Is there water here?" ”

Aunt Wang hurriedly said, "Yes, the small stove in the corner is boiling water!" ”

When Yiyue heard this, she went to pick up the kettle, went to the edge of the boat and stretched her hand out of the boat, and used boiling water to pour the tableware that Youwei wanted to use, Baoyue took out a cloth from the burden she was carrying, carefully wiped the dishes and chopsticks clean and put them in front of Youwei, and said with a smile: "It's the slave who wants to forget, forget to bring the dishes and chopsticks." ”

Youwei smiled and picked up the chopsticks: "When you go out, don't be so pretentious." ”

Aunt Wang hurriedly answered: "The little lady is expensive, the village and the countryside here, it's very good not to let the little lady get bored, how can it be considered hypocritical?" The little lady can rest assured, everything here has been carefully cleaned by the slave family and Xiaofu Gezai. ”

After some pushing, everyone sat down, Youwei didn't care about the order of respect and inferiority, but this concept was deeply rooted in this era, and she couldn't force it, so she said sweetly: "There is no old lady outside, just me, Wanniang and Yiyue Huyue know my temper, don't like chirping crookedly, you just sit together, restraint is the real restraint of me!" ”

Everyone heard her say this, Wang Qiaoyun praised Youwei after sitting down with the help of Yiyue: "The little lady is not only beautiful, but also has a first-class good personality, unlike those people, who always look down on the countrymen and look at us with their nostrils!" ”

Wan Niang sandwiched a small piece of fish meat for Youwei and said, "Little lady, this is your favorite sea bass, taste it." ”

Youwei resisted everyone's gaze, and ate the fish in a small bite with what she thought was the most beautiful posture in her life, the fish was tender and full, and there were no thorns, Youwei also endured it for a long time and almost swallowed her tongue after patting the table and appreciating it, and chewed it gently for a while before swallowing it, in the face of everyone's expectations, Youwei nodded reservedly: "Very good." ”

Aunt Wang breathed a sigh of relief first: "It's good that the little lady likes to eat, and I was worried that the little lady wouldn't be used to eating it, the ginger is all picked and cut finely, and the soup only dares to choose the water in the upper reaches of Baihe Spring... As long as the little lady loves to eat, the slave family is willing to make it for you every day! ”

Youwei glanced at Aunt Wang, and asked innocently: "Did Aunt Wang want to be a cook in our house?" You can discuss with Wan Niang, and she is in charge of this matter. ”

Aunt Wang didn't expect Youwei to misunderstand, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "I heard that the house has always treated people well, and the slave family has long wanted to serve the little lady, but it's a pity that Brother Xiaofu is still young and needs the slave family to worry about a lot, although Qiaoyun is married, but she is not far away, and she will often come to see it, you have also seen it, she is about to give birth, and the slave family will also watch it!" So..."

Wan Niang smiled faintly: "It's really worrying." ”

Aunt Wang's face was a little sneering, Youwei took a sip of soup, and said to Aunt Wang: "It's just that I am joking a little more, Aunt Wang quickly relaxes, I won't force you." ”
