The long summer days are cloudless, the strong sun scorches the earth, and the breeze spreads with a sultry smell.

Chu Liumeng and Tang Manwan walked on the village road, and after a while, they passed by a large lotus pond, and there were a few willow trees on the edge of the lotus pond.

The white fish jumped in the pool of clear water, rippling in bursts of ripples. The lotus flowers are just in bloom, and there is a fine fragrance in the air.

"Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian." Tang Manwan looked at the lotus flowers swaying in the breeze, and couldn't help but think of the famous sentence in Han Yuefu.

Chu Liumeng smiled slightly: "Do you want to pick lotus?" There should still be quite a few lotus pods. ”

"I'll have a chance in the future." Tang Manwan shook her head and refused, although she did want to try to be a Jiangnan lotus picker who only existed in poetry, but she didn't want to trouble Chu Liumeng too much yet.

Tang Manwan took a deep breath, then slowly spit it out, and said softly: "Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, but now it looks like it is really worthy of its reputation, and the scenery is indeed better than our north." ”

"In fact, the outside world is almost the same now, just because this is the Chu family, so it still maintains the old scenery of Jiangnan." Chu Liumeng smiled and asked again, "Speaking of which, didn't you also come last time?" ”

"I came and went in a hurry last time, and I haven't had time to take a closer look." Tang Manwan stuck out her tongue meaninglessly, her eyes were shy, and her lips smiled, "But this time, I carefully admired the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River." ”

In particular, after thousands of years of spiritual power immersion, Chujia Village is simply a fairyland on earth that originally only existed in poetry.

It was almost noon, and it was almost time for lunch for the family, but the news that leaked out of nowhere, the young people of the Chu family almost poured out, "passing by" the two of them from time to time, and then stepped forward to say hello.

"You see, they all came to see you on purpose. Tang Wenrou of the Tang family is the first love in the hearts of countless people. Chu Liumeng teased in a low voice.

"Don't laugh at me, how can I match you in terms of literary talent and martial arts?" Tang Manwan glanced at Chu Liumeng.

"Maybe it's because my family has good feng shui? If you don't believe it, if you live in my house for twenty or thirty years, maybe you will be able to surpass me. ”

"Then why don't I live in your house for the rest of my life?"

Chu Liumeng nodded solemnly: "Okay." ”

"You're beautiful." Tang Manwan couldn't cry or laugh, and then straightened her face again, "Don't let Chu Sanbo and them hear these words, otherwise they will definitely scold you." ”

Chu Liumeng smiled and was speechless.

He understood what Tang Manwan meant, the Chu family's family rules were very strict, and if the elders in the family knew that Chu Liumeng actually wanted to engage in Lily, she would definitely be punished severely. Tang Manwan's first thought at this time was not herself, but Chu Liumeng, which moved Chu Liumeng and sighed that she didn't like the wrong person.

However, Chu Liumeng was really not afraid of the elders of the Chu family hearing it, after all, this was what they supported and instigated, and the third uncle also assured him that he must have a good talk with Tang Fourth Uncle this time.

In his opinion, Chu Zilu and Tang Wenrou are indeed a good match.

Of course, Chu Liumeng, who knew the truth of the matter, didn't take Chu Xiongcai's assurances to heart, and it was better to count on himself than to count on others.

Chu Liumeng moved his hand, as if he wanted to get close to Tang Manwan's hand, but after getting closer, he finally hung down, and cautiously peeked at Tang Manwan, as if he was a little timid and worried.

Tang Manwan noticed the other party's small movements, she pursed her lips, and as if she had made up her mind, she took the initiative to hold Chu Liumeng's hand.

"We're just friends, right?" Tang Manwan pretended to smile generously.

“…… Well, we're just friends. Chu Liumeng's face darkened, but soon changed to a smiling face and nodded solemnly.

Of course, it won't always be just friends. Chu Liumeng successfully shook Tang Manwan's hand and added in his heart.

……

"You're back...... Ah, Miss Tang, hello, remember me, we met at the coming-of-age ceremony. Chu Linshuang stretched out his hand with a smile.

"Well, how can the Chu family's 'Yuhuan Feiyan' forget it?" Although Tang Manwan was a little puzzled as to why Chu Linshuang was at Chu Liumeng's house at this time, she didn't think much about it, and shook her hand with a smile.

And Chu Liumeng was stunned at this time, why was Chu Linshuang at his house? A bad feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

Chu Linshuang rarely came to him when he was fine, and even if he did, he basically came to visit Guo'er. And like this, at noon, I came over at lunchtime, and there was really no such situation before.

"Zilu, what do you always peek at me for?" Chu Linshuang asked with a puzzled expression.

"Huh?" Tang Manwan sighed lightly, and subconsciously glanced at Chu Liumeng,

"......" The corners of Chu Liumeng's mouth twitched slightly, now it is certain that this Chu Linshuang is really here to make trouble.

Chu Liumeng looked at the smug smile on the corner of Chu Linshuang's mouth, took a deep breath, and told himself that he must be calm and not panic.

As soon as he thought of this, he also calmed down, and said with a puzzled expression: "Lin Shuang, why are you here?" ”

"Xiao Bichi reacted quite quickly...... Chu Linshuang snorted coldly in his heart, and said innocently, "Didn't you let me come to you to play if I was fine?" ”

"You're on good terms." Tang Manwan looked at Chu Liumeng with an inexplicable smile.

Chu Liumeng was about to cry: "I'm asking, what are you doing at this time, don't you eat at noon......?"

"Didn't you say I could come to your house whenever I wanted?" Chu Linshuang tilted his head, a little angry, "If you bother me now, then I'll go back!" ”

Chu Linshuang, you wait for me!

Chu Liumeng burst into tears in his heart, but under Tang Manwan's gaze, it was impossible to really drive people back, so he had to grit his teeth and swallow it in his stomach: "I'll just ask casually, look at how hearty you are." Let's have lunch together! ”

Chu Yunling had already finished lunch, Tang Manwan followed Chu Liumeng to the kitchen, and greeted Chu Yunling with a smile

"Hello Miss Mingxin, my name is Tang Manwan, and my words are gentle."

"Hmm." Chu Yunling just nodded coldly, and then began to serve the meal.

Chu Yunling specially cut down a fresh bamboo from the yard today and steamed a few bamboo rices. She took the bamboo tube out of the pot and then split it with a knife, and immediately the fragrance overflowed, and the rice grains were crystal full.

Although Chu Liumeng had long suspected it, he was almost more certain now, and his sister's sword skills might be more exquisite than his sword skills.

"I've long heard Liumeng say that Miss Mingxin's housework is omnipotent, but today I know that it's better to see than to hear." Tang Manwan smiled softly, with an envious tone.

In addition to bamboo rice, today's dishes are also rich, with a variety of colors, flavors, and flavors, which are more exquisite than ever.

"Brother...... My sister also said that she only likes the food I cook. Chu Yunling looked next to Chu Liumeng expressionlessly, and said lightly.

“…… Oh, yes, you sisters have a good relationship. Tang Manwan's expression was stunned, she felt as if Chu Yunling was demonstrating, but she didn't know where this hostility came from.

Chu Linshuang smiled in her heart when she saw this, while Guo'er was eating happily on the side, her mouth was stuffed.

After everyone finished lunch, Chu Linshuang walked towards Chu Liumeng with a smile, and there was a taste of banter in his eyes.

"Lin Shuang, you wait for me in Yunling's room." However, before Chu Linshuang could speak, Chu Liumeng left a sentence and pulled Tang Manwan to his room quickly.

"Manwan, I'm going to give you a gift." Chu Liumeng didn't explain anything else, but a gloomy smile appeared on his face.
