Chapter 301: Xianglian and Water Chestnut

In the afternoon, Ye Feng went to the county seat, walked around the industries, and then returned to the orchard.

For the next two days, Ye Feng stayed in the orchard, selecting the combination components, and as for the burial spirit worm after devouring the black jade, there was no change.

During this period, Xu Qing came to stay for another night, and naturally speaking, Bailian's vinegar was even greater.

This morning, after Ye Feng instructed Bai Lian on all aspects of the matter, he drove out of the orchard and came to the new house.

At this moment, a lot of people have gathered outside the new house, and there is a black Mercedes-Benz SUV parked.

Today is the day when the Jinglin Ye clan sent people to Changfeng.

Changfeng is also in the southern province, but it is not in the property market, but in Rong County, Yueshi, which is more than 300 kilometers away from Feng County.

It is said that this Changfeng is on the edge of Dongting Lake.

"Kaede is here."

Ye Feng stopped the car and got out of the car, and everyone present greeted him one after another.

Due to the long distance, it is necessary to start early, after all, it is estimated that it will take three or four hours to drive for three or four hundred kilometers.

After some preparation, everyone got into the car.

Those who sat in Ye Feng's car were his father, the second uncle, the third uncle, and the eldest uncle Ye Linxuan.

As for Brother Hui, there is also Brother Ye Chunlai, who sits in Ye Xinqi's car.

"Kaede, drive carefully, and when you arrive, call back."

My mother was not very relieved, and repeatedly admonished.

"Mom, don't worry."

Ye Feng said in response.

Soon, he started the car and slowly drove off the floor.

Ye Xinqi also followed.

Nine people in two cars. I have been to Changfeng, that is, Uncle Ye Linxuan, and it was decades ago. However, after such a long time, the traffic route has completely changed, but with GPS navigation, there is naturally no difficulty in getting to Changfeng.

From the high-speed toll station in Ejiaping, Shima Town, on the Shangrui Expressway, but the luck is not very good, when the moon is on the expressway, there is a traffic jam, and it is blocked for more than an hour. When I came down from Hangrui Expressway, it was already past twelve o'clock.

The group simply had lunch in Rong County, and then drove to Changfeng.

It is worthy of the Dongting Lake District. Everywhere there are vast waters.

It's hard to imagine that in ancient times, when Dongting Lake was at its broadest, the 800-mile Dongting Lake would be so vast and magnificent.

At one o'clock in the afternoon. The two cars finally drove to Changfeng Town. Since the phone call had been made before, there were already people from the Changfeng Ye clan in Changfeng Town who had already sent people to wait for reception.

The person who received it was a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Hello, I'm Ye Yangfei, I'm in charge of receiving you, and the accommodation has been arranged."

The middle-aged man shook hands with Ye Feng and the others one by one, and then drove Ye Feng and the others towards a nearby hotel.

Don't look at this Changfeng is just a town, it is developing rapidly, and it is far from being comparable to a town like Shima Town in Fengxian County. At least four or five times larger, there are more than a dozen high-rise buildings. There is also a star hotel.

The facilities of this hotel are not bad, and they can be compared with the hotels in Feng County.

One triple room, three double rooms.

When the middle-aged man named Ye Yangfei was leaving, he explained to Ye Feng and the others, saying that the Ye clan meeting would be held tomorrow, and they could walk around and play today.

Since you have come to Changfeng, you naturally have to have a good time.

The most interesting place in Rong County is the Lotus Lake, which is a harbor of Dongting Lake, and after years of reclamation, it has already become a lake within a lake.

The reason why Lianhu Lake is fun is that this Lianhu Lake is rich in Hunan lotus.

This Xianglian, also known as glutinous lotus, is the best among the lotus seeds, and it is unique in the world in terms of taste.

Now is the best time to pick lotus seeds.

Many tourists come here just to watch the lotus farmers picking Hunan lotus.

The group rested in the hotel for more than half an hour, and Ye Feng called his mother again.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, a group of nine people drove out of the hotel and went straight to Lianhu.

The location of Lianhu Lake is easy to find, and after half an hour, the two cars came to a village, and they could see the vast lake in the distance, with vast blue waves.

After entering the village, Ye Feng and his party rented two boats and went down to the lake.

The weather is nice and cloudy today.

The wind blows on the lake, which is very refreshing.

There are many such boats, all of which are filled with tourists and have special boatmen to support the boats.

"Everyone, look ahead, there is a Xianglian planting area, do you want to go over and have a look?"

The boatman was a sturdy man of about thirty, shirtless, and dark-skinned due to frequent sun exposure.

"Okay."

Ye Feng said with a smile.

On this boat, there is also a variety of fishing gear that allows tourists to fish on the boat.

The boatman's boat holding skills are very good, although the lake is rippling, this boat is very stable, like a flexible fish in the water, splitting the waves, moving in a straight line, ten minutes later, the boat came to the opposite shore of the lake, this water area is a large lotus forest, layers of lotus leaves, like an umbrella, verdant and green, the pink lotus flower is bright and dazzling, the lotus canopy is swaying in the lotus leaves, you can see the lotus seeds inside are full and round.

At this moment, some small boats are shuttling among the lotus leaves, picking ripe lotus flowers.

In the sparse area of the lotus forest, there is also a large area of emerald green aquatic plants, which are dotted with many small yellow flowers, as if there is a beautiful green carpet of yellow flowers on the surface of the lake, which is very beautiful.

"Brother Boat, what kind of aquatic weed is that, why are people picking something?"

Ye Feng pointed to the aquatic weeds, someone was rowing a small wooden boat picking something, and immediately asked the boatman.

"Hehe, that's water chestnut, generally where there is a lotus, there will be water chestnut growing, but the water chestnut here is planted by lotus farmers."

The boatman laughed.

"It turned out to be a water chestnut."

Ye Feng was very surprised.

He naturally knew what water chestnut was, and he had eaten it, and even picked it when he was a child.

When I was a child, water chestnuts grew in the small river near my hometown, all of which were wild, but they were not planted in size, but the taste was very good, and the sweet feeling was unforgettable.

When the water chestnut is ripe, many children will gather in the river, swimming on the water with buckets, looking for water chestnuts everywhere, and once they find a place with dense edges and corners, they will attract children to scramble.

The boat sailed into the lotus forest.

According to the boatman, as long as you pay a fee, you can pick lotus pods and water chestnuts here without any restrictions.

In fact, some of the boats that pick lotus seeds and water chestnuts here are tourists.

After paying some money, Ye Feng and the others began to pick lotus pods and water chestnuts.

The Hunan lotus here is all white lotus, the lotus seeds are full, white and pink, put one into the mouth, bite gently, there is a unique soft taste, sweet and fragrant.

After picking some lotus seeds, the boat heads towards the area full of water chestnut seedlings and begins to pick water chestnut.

Ye Feng bent down and stretched out his hand to lift a cluster of water chestnut seedlings out of the water, and he could see that there were purple-red water chestnuts growing underneath the water chestnut seedlings, which were at least twice as large as the wild water chestnuts he picked when he was a child.

He plucked one and peeled off the hard shell, and he could see the snow-white meat inside, which tasted pink and sweet, but compared to the taste in his memory, it was still a lot worse
