When the pool was about to be completed, it suddenly started to rain. The rain caught Zhao Lan off guard. In a hurry, Zhao Lan asked Siqi's father to push down the ridges around the water, and the water in the puddle suddenly overflowed into the pool.

It was raining again, and when the rain stopped, the pool was full. Zhao Lan thought to herself.

After the thing was done, Zhao Lan and Shi ran home separately.

Zhao Lan stood under the eaves, looking at the dark sky outside, lightning swept through the sky, leaving white marks, bean-sized rain poured down like a waterfall, and water vapor filled the entire sky.

It rained for more than an hour, which is equivalent to more than two hours now. Zhao Lan stood at the door of the hall for two hours. Feel the wonderful feeling of this rain and extinguish the hidden worries in your heart!

As soon as the rain stopped, Zhao Lan took a shovel and a bowl of lotus seedlings, ran into the wasteland regardless of the humidity in the field, and soon rushed to the pond that had just been dug.

The pond is connected to the pool, and the blue waves are rippling, and the middle is separated by a path. (Allow me to describe it as rippling blue waves, a vast expanse of blue water.) I was so happy, I was too excited. ）

To the north of the path is a square pool with a slightly higher water level. To the south of the trail is a long, slender pond with a slightly lower water level. Zhao Lan took a shovel and dug a water outlet in the middle path, and the water slowly flowed from the pool to the pond.

Zhao Lan carefully planted a bowl of lotus with long roots on the shallow edge of the pond, so that the leaves could show out of the water. After planting a bowl of lotus, standing on the edge of the pond, looking at the lotus leaves floating in the water like small discs, the whole pond suddenly came alive. Zhao Lan imagined excitedly in her heart that in the middle of summer, the lotus flowers were in full bloom, the breeze was coming, the colorful lotus flowers were dancing with the wind, and the fragrance of the lotus flowers was coming to her nose, so the beautiful scenery belonged to me Zhao Lan.

Back garden! Put it in modern times is an attraction.

Ha ha! Zhao Lan thought about this beautiful scenery in her heart, and laughed unconsciously.

It would be even better if you had lotus roots, and you could also eat lotus pods and lotus roots.

After planting a bowl of lotus and daydreaming for a while, Zhao Lan came to the path again, and the water level on the north and south sides was already almost the same. Zhao Lan dug the soil again, filled the opening, and then stomped on it.

No one knew there was groundwater going out here. Zhao Lan thought to herself. The truth is far from what Zhao Lan thinks.

In the evening of the same day, Stone came to see it alone. He walked around the pool, looking at the green leaves floating on the edge of the pool, and finally stopped on the path, staring at the pool not far away, before retracting his gaze for a long time, and then looking down at the path in front of him, the road in front of his feet was freshly filled with earth. Stone nodded slightly and smiled with satisfaction.

It's a smart little sister-in-law, and the stone preaches in his heart.

In addition to the stones, another person also came to see it when it was dark. No one knew it had been.

At the east end of the village, the rich and noble family is still the study, and the candle flame is slightly moving.

"Young Master!"

"Speak."

"The wasteland in front of the mound, where a pool of water was dug and there seemed to be an outlet for groundwater in the pool."

"It seems?" A cold questioning voice.

"The subordinates are not doing well! The subordinates never thought that it would suddenly rain today. By the time the subordinates rushed over, the pool was already full of water. ”

"Find out. Digging into groundwater is not unusual. However, there are inevitable. Go ahead! ”

"Yes. Subordinates receive punishments! ”

The candle flame flickered, and the palatial study was silent again. The slender figure remained motionless on the carved window.

"Zhao family, Zhao Lan!"

For a long time, the slender figure let out a low murmur, which could not be heard without careful listening.

In addition to the people who came, there were two other people who spied on it, but they never came to see it.

In a deep mountain, a white-haired old man stood under the Bodhi tree, looking up at the sky full of dark clouds, and a strong wind blew, revealing a clear blue sky.

I only heard the old man muttering to himself: "The wind is like a tiger, it becomes a dragon when it meets water, and the clouds scatter to see the sky." ”

Xiao Daotong raised his head and asked, "Master Tai, what are you talking about, why can't the apprentices and grandsons understand." ”

The old man said slowly: "You don't need to understand, you just need to know that the world in the future will be better than ever." ”

"Oh!" Xiao Daotong seemed to be even more confused after listening to the old man's explanation, and couldn't help but ask again, "Master Tai, the world is not very good now!" ”

"Much better than in this world."

The old man lowered his head, stared at the misty foot of the mountain, and preached quietly.

Far away, in an ordinary bedroom.

The old man stood in front of the window, stared at the sky, and whispered: "The pearl is now, the world is bright." ”

Zhao Lan happily went to the pond every day to take a look at the planted bowl lotus to see if there were any new leaves, and whether the leaves were floating on the water; Observe whether the leaves of the bowl lotus planted in the pond are much larger than those planted in the pot; Looking forward to when the match head will come out.

Zhao Shen inquired about who had ducks to sell as early as two days ago, and asked someone to buy twenty ducks. Zhao Shen only wanted to buy ten, but Zhao Lan felt that ten was also raised, and twenty were also raised, so it was better to raise more. Zhao Shen couldn't help but persuade him, and really bought twenty and came back. In addition, at Zhao Lan's request, ten geese were also bought.

The ducks and geese had just been bought, and Zhao Qiuke was happy. Every now and then he touched this and that again. He was so excited that he didn't leave for a moment, but the duck and goose were very unhappy. If ducks and geese could speak, they would say, "Bear child, stay away from us, a little farther away." Your little master's strength is not counted.

Zhao Lan wanted to make a swing first, but who knew that the pond was dug first. It's better to plan than to change.

Still, the swing still has to be done. Now that he knows that Siqi's father is a carpenter, he has dealt with him twice. Zhao Lan asked Siqi's father to make a smooth and thick wooden plank, and chisel two holes at each end of the plank. After making the plank, by the way, I asked Siqi's father to press the plank on the tree designated by Zhao Lan.

As soon as the swing was installed, several children rushed to play and took turns to play around, and Zhao Lan also sat on it to experience it.

Swinging into the air and then swinging down, the mood seems to fly with the swing.

Zhao Lan likes to swing the most, and when she swings up, she flies into the distance like she has wings.

Ju'er also loves swinging, and she grabs the most. No, she grabbed it again, sat neatly on the swing, and Siqi pushed it behind. The swing swings into the air.

I only heard Zhao Ju shouting: "Swing higher, higher again!" Siqi, you use some strength! ”

"Haha! Ha ha! The children's laughter spread throughout the mountain village.

"It's a quarrel, it's a quarrel." Chunhong ran over panting and shouted.

Zhao Lan, who was standing aside to look at the child, grabbed Chunhong and asked, "Who quarreled with whom?" ”

"Sanya Niang quarreled with your Grandma Liu." Chunhong gasped.

Zhao Lan listened to it and put her mind at ease, thinking: You didn't quarrel with my family, let's not be idle!

Besides, this Sanya's mother really quarrels with people every once in a while, if you can't hear her loud voice one day, the village will not be lively, and the people in the village are not used to it!

Zhao Ju got off the swing and said to Chunhong with a smile: "She won't quarrel one day!" Fuss! Chunhong, you came to play this, you just made it, it's fun. ”

Zhao Ju said and stretched out his hand to pull Chunhong to the swing.

Chunhong refused to go, pushed Zhao Ju's hand, and said with a flushed face: "Originally, I quarreled with Grandma Liu, but I heard it before I came, and she said that she was going to your house and quarreling with your mother." Go back and have a look! ”

Zhao Ju was unhappy, glared and asked, "She quarreled with Grandma Liu, why did she have anything to do with our family, and she still went to our house?"

"I don't know! It seems to be saying something pro, saying that your family picked the rest to give her three girls. I don't even remember saying that your family bullied people, or anything. Let's go! ”

Chunhong pulled Zhao Ju, who was stunned and didn't react, and wanted to go to the village.

Zhao Lan listened to Chunhong's words and shouted, "Ju'er, Qiu'er, let's go back." Siqi, you go back to the village with us, and you can go home by yourself in a while, be careful. ”

Zhao Lan called her brother, sister, and Siqi and took them home.

Zhao Lan thought in her heart: Grandma Liu mentioned a noodle brother in the town to Zhao Shen some time ago.

I didn't listen to Zhao Shen's when I came back that day, it seems that Brother Noodle is not Zhao Shen's dish.

However, how did the three girls know about this. I know what's going on with my family. If your family wants to marry, you can marry, and if you don't want to marry, don't marry.

However, there is no reason to talk about bastards.

Hurry up, when she got home, the third girl had already scolded. There was a crowd of people around the door.

"Why did you come to Da Zhuang's house to scold?"

"It was said that the boy that Zhao Shen didn't like said was for her family."

"Sanya Niang went to see it? Did you like it? ”

"I didn't go to see it, but after listening to Grandma Liu's words, she scolded from Grandma Liu's house to Zhao Dazhuang's house."

"This Grandma Liu is not right! A man wants to marry several daughters-in-law. ”

"It's nothing, whoever wants to marry whomever marries. The male family can marry whoever he wants. ”

"That's it, Zhao Dazhuang's family is rushing to marry that man?"

"Nope. I heard that Zhao Dazhuang's family didn't go to see it at all. ”

"I didn't go to see it, and I didn't rob her son-in-law, what did she scold?"

"Scold Zhao Shen for introducing her Sanya, who can't look down on her."

"Zhao Shen introduced?"

"When did you see Zhao Shen as a matchmaker? She doesn't go to the door, she can be a matchmaker for her family, she thinks beautifully. ”

"Who is she caught, who is scolding! Zhao Shen sat there and listened to her scolding, how could she scold alone. ”

"What time was it not her singing a one-man show!"

……

Outside the door, the people inside the door were talking nonsense.

Zhao Lan let go of the heart she was carrying: Fortunately, there was no fight. Swearing! Left ear in and right ear out. In vain she spoke.

"Zhao Dazhuang's house is very good-looking! The corners of the wall are full of flowers, how beautiful they are! ”

"Yes! The last time I came to ask my daughter for flowers, there were only a few blooms at that time, how can they be so beautiful! ”

"You don't know, her family still drinks a kind of flower tea, and she also made flower tea for me that day, and the white bowl of yellow flowers is beautiful. It's delicious! ”

"Really, I can still lie to you! If you don't believe it, ask Zhao Shen. ”

"Shen Jing, I heard that you have a delicious and beautiful flower tea at home, make one for us to see!"

Suddenly, in the crowd, a loud voice overshadowed everyone's speech, which was really deafening!

The crowd was stunned by this sudden and inexplicable questioning, and they were silent.

"Yes, yes! I'll make tea for all the aunts, aunts, aunts, and grandmothers! ”

Zhao Lan walked in from outside the door and replied loudly.

"I'm talking to Shen Jing! What do you interject! ”

"You talk about yours, let's drink our tea, don't we? Hi! I said, don't you want to drink? I really haven't drunk it. "This mother with a big voice is not scared at all.

"We want to drink it too! Thanks to you! ”

The person next to him looked at the two of them, and then agreed.

"Flower tea? I haven't heard of it, and I want to try it too! ”

"I haven't heard of it either, it's really fake."

Seeing that no one listened to her scolding, the third girl said to this group of women: "Don't speak, Shen Jing and I haven't finished talking yet."

Zhao Shen said coldly: "I don't have anything to tell you, if you want to drink tea, please ask you to drink a bowl, if you don't want to drink, just do it!"

"It's coming, it's coming!" Zhao Lan shouted with a smile: "Auntie, aunt, aunt, grandmother, please drink tea!"

"There are really flowers!"

"It's beautiful!"

"I'll drink it first, don't rob me!"

……

"Old lady Zhao and the lieutenant are here!" A small hairy head screamed outside the door.
