The summer in Yanjing is very hot, unlike the humid heat in the south, the heat in Yanjing is the dry heat that comes out of the bones, the heat is rolling like a wave, and the sun is as big as a brazier.

It's as if you're going to roast people into jerky.

And it's such the weather, Ni Tao can't be idle.

He's moving things non-stop.

Several large wooden boxes were dead, and one by one he moved them into the trunk of the car.

Ni Tao wiped the sweat from his forehead, and for the first time he had doubts about his life.

Is he here to eat or to be a porter??

But he couldn't complain yet, for Chen Er was standing beside him.

Chen Er's body was clean, without any sweat, and he was standing under the shade of a tree to enjoy the shade.

"Master, I've already been contacted over there. Exactly according to your requirements, master! ”

Dou Yitong finished the phone call and walked over to say.

Chen Er nodded and looked at Ni Tao, who was sweating profusely.

smiled and said, "Mr. Ni, it's hard work." ”

Ni Tao waved his hand and said against his will, "It's not hard, it's not hard." ”

Shen Yinian changed into a very light Hanfu, and his clothes were fluttering.

He also held a bamboo flute in his hand.

Chen Er waved his hand, "It's all ready, let's go." ”

Dou Yitong and Shen Yinian sat in the back.

Chen Er sat in the co-pilot's seat.

Ni Tao drove.

Head to the place Chen Er said.

Ni Tao couldn't help his curiosity, "Master Chen, if you don't eat in the restaurant, where are we going?" ”

Chen Er leaned back in his chair very leisurely, "The two dishes we made today require the freshest ingredients to bring out the most wonderful taste, so we have to go and use local ingredients." ”

Ni Tao wanted to ask something, but Chen Er had already begun to close his eyes and recuperate.

The car drove out of the city and drove straight to the suburbs.

After leaving the cement road, under the command of Dou Yitong, he drove a dirt road with potholes.

Ni Tao was shaken and trembled, and he had to always guard against the cats and dogs that accidentally came out of the side.

"This is it!" Dou Yitong shouted.

Ni Tao hurriedly stepped on the brakes.

Then he poked his head out, looked out, and was stunned.

In front of me is a lotus flower with no end in sight.

The lotus leaves in the lake are about to fill the lake, and the large pink lotus flowers are blooming in the turquoise lotus leaves.

Shyness is infinite.

This is probably "the infinite blue of the lotus leaf".

When I got out of the car, the breeze on the lake carried the fragrance of lotus flowers and cool water vapor.

Ni Tao couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The irritability in my heart was swept away.

Dou Yitong ran to the nearby farmhouse and talked for a long time, and then ran back with a basket of blue and purple leaves.

"Master, the things are here."

Chen Er picked up a leaf and sniffed it, "Well, the aroma is very good." ”

Dou Yitong continued, "We have prepared a boat for us, and it is on the lake." ”

Chen Er walked to the lake, brushed aside the layers of lotus leaves, and saw a small boat swaying on the surface of the lake.

A small bamboo canopy was also built on the boat to block the sun.

Ni Tao leaned over to see, "Isn't this a little smaller, there are four of us ......?"

Dou Yitong hurriedly said, "This is what the family said just now, this is a boat that can seat six or seven people, and the four of us will definitely not be crowded!" ”

Ni Tao wanted to say something, but Chen Er waved his hand, "Okay, let's move things on the boat first." ”

After all the things were loaded onto the ship, Ni Tao knew what those things were.

There are two small stoves, a basket of silver dust charcoal, four layers of small steamers, a small iron pot, and a purple casserole. There are also kitchen utensils such as chopsticks, small tables, kitchen knives, and cutting boards.

All four of them got on the boat, and it was really not crowded at all.

Dou Yitong sat at the stern of the boat rowing, wore a hat, and had a bit of the taste of an ancient fisherman.

The boat rowed slowly, but steadily, slowly and leisurely from the edge of the lake to the center of the lake.

Ni Tao was surprised that Dou Yitong could also row.

Chen Er said, "Do you know how to swim?" ”

All three nodded in unison.

Ni Tao suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Master Chen is asking why this is for?"

Chen Er smiled, "This apprentice of mine just learned rowing yesterday. ”

Ni Tao was so frightened that he almost didn't roll off the boat.

Chen Er looked at him and said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to broadcast live, if you mind, I'll put a mosaic on your face." ”

Ni Tao came back to his senses, and his legs trembled.

Although Chen Er smiled gently, he was still worried that if he said he minded, Chen Er would kick him into the water.

"I don't mind ......"

Chen Er turned on the live broadcast.

Fans were amazed by the beauty.

Chen Er said, "It's a pity if you don't have some music for such a beautiful scenery." ”

As soon as the words fell, a piece of "Chen Laoshi, please let go!" was instantly brushed on the barrage! "I choose to kill myself!" "Old Chen, don't open your mouth!" And so on.

Chen Er was very calm, "Who said I was going to sing." ”

Then he turned his head to look at Shen Yinian.

Shen Yinian picked up the bamboo flute and walked to the bow of the boat.

The snow-white gauze was blown by the cool breeze on the lake, and the bamboo flute in her hand sounded a beautiful movement.

The sound of the flute is melodious and elegant, like snowflakes blown away by the wind, and it is very clear.

Chen Er reached out and broke off a lotus flower that poked into the boat.

Tear off all the petals and place them neatly on a cyan lotus leaf plate.

Sprinkle with a layer of white icing.

Then peel out the lotus seeds and put them in a blue porcelain bowl.

Pour in the stream water brought from home, scoop a spoonful of honey into it, and stir well with a spoon.

They were all placed on the small table in front of Ni Tao.

"It's a snack before a meal, and it's also the ingredients now, otherwise I wouldn't be too lazy to make it."

Ni Tao was pleasantly surprised, it was the first time he had seen such a fresh way to eat.

So he hurriedly picked up a piece of petal and put it in his mouth.

The lotus petals are so tender that you can feel the juice flowing in your mouth when you bite into it.

The lotus fragrance is elegant, faint like the mist in the morning, with a hazy beauty, but it is as refreshing as a clear stream.

The icing on the petals also tastes wonderful.

It's a bit like the frosting of fruit, with a fruity aroma in it.

The combination of the two is like eating fruit-flavored petals.

Ni Tao quickly ate up a plate of lotus petals.

Then he started eating that bowl of lotus seeds.

Fresh lotus seeds are like fruits, crispy and delicious.

There was a little bitterness in the middle of the lotus seed, and it suddenly sobered up Ni Tao's brain.

After eating, I feel comfortable and wonderful.

Shen Yinian also finished blowing a song and bowed in.

Chen Er also made her a bowl of lotus seed syrup.

"Eat, clear the heat and defeat the fire."

Shen Yinian hurriedly thanked him and took it.

Chen Er rowed to the Dou Yi channel, "Row to the place next to the lotus leaf more." ”

The boat slowly rowed along.

Crashed into a dense lotus bush.

The smell of lotus leaves lingers and lingers.

As soon as Chen Er turned his head, he dodged a large lotus leaf that swung towards his face.

Ni Tao in the back couldn't dodge.

A large green lotus leaf hit his face.

Then it swept over his face like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves.

Ni Tao hadn't reacted yet.

Chen Er raised his hand and pointed to the underwater and said, "Do you know what's under the water?" ”

Ni Tao returned without thinking, "Lotus root." ”

Chen Er grinned, "Have you ever eaten the lotus root you just dug up?" ”

Ni Tao shook his head.

Chen Er asked again, "Do you want to eat?" ”

Ni Tao nodded vigorously.

The fans in the barrage were about to faint with laughter.

Pork stewed vermicelli: "Chen Laoshi has started his routine again." ”

Chen Er took out a small wooden basin and placed it on the edge of the cabin.

said to Ni Tao, "Then go, dig it up, and I'll do it for you." ”

Ni Tao was dumbfounded: "Nani! ”

Chen Er smiled and said, "Eat lotus root today." ”
