In July, the sun is shining, the heat has not disappeared, the blue sky is like a clear sky, it is the time when the water chestnut flowers are blooming in the lake and pond.

The surface of the lake is like a mirror, and the emerald water chestnut leaves are densely spread all over half of the lake, and at a glance, the green waves are endless.

Cheerful and melodious fishing songs came from the lake, accompanied by the sound of several young girls chirping and laughing. A small boat was parked among the green water chestnut leaves, and not far from it, several wooden basins floated, and on each wooden basin sat a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

The girl in the barrel laughed while leaning over to pluck the water chestnut leaves, they turned over the leaves floating on the water, and saw a few fat water chestnuts, the girl pinched lightly, and a string of fresh water chestnuts were picked.

"Bai Jinyu, go on!" A young girl straightened up and threw the string of water chestnuts at a cyan figure in the boat with a smile.

Bai Jinyu was listening to the fishing song with her head propped up, and when she heard this call, she subconsciously turned around and raised her hand, and the water chestnut that crossed a line in the air fell steadily into her hand.

She looked at the things she had taken, and said loudly to the girl who threw the water chestnut: "Thank you, Sister Wang, Sister Wang is beautiful, and the water chestnuts picked are very big!" ”

"Yo! Isn't mine special? A girl next to her immediately said sourly, rowed the small wooden basin to Bai Jinyu's boat, patted her on the edge of the boat and said, "Give me back my water chestnut, I don't want to give you any more!" ”

Bai Jinyu smiled and said, "Sister Li, do you really want to take it?" Take it away, then you won't be able to eat the water chestnut you picked when you hear the banquet! ”

"You...... Irritating! This Sister Li's face suddenly turned red, and the rest of the girls immediately laughed when they heard it.

Sister Wang rowed the wooden basin to the side of the boat, handed a shoulder basket full of water chestnuts to Bai Jinyu, and said to Sister Li: "Okay, okay, it's been a few years, and when we meet, it's still a bickering!" If it weren't for Mrs. Rong coming back to attend the wedding banquet this time, you might not know when you would be able to meet! ”

Bai Jinyu nodded heavily, and said to Sister Li: "That's it, it's rare for me to come to Lujiang, I'm a guest, can you be kind to me!" ”

Sister Li was about to reply, when there was a noise of gongs and drums in the distance, and Sister Li turned to say: "It seems that the wedding banquet has started, we have to go!" Jinyu, come, pull me! She forgot her grievances in a blink of an eye, stood up in the wooden basin, and stretched out her hand to Bai Jinyu.

"Okay, be careful!" Bai Jinyu stood up and helped her, Sister Li lightly stepped on the boat, jumped up to the shore, and said to a few girls in the water: "Come up quickly, it is said that the bride married by the Ke family today is very good-looking, let's sneak into the cave room together later!" ”

Several girls in the water rowed the small wooden basin one after another, helped Bai Jinyu to stand on the boat, and jumped ashore.

"Jinyu, you can go with us too!" An older girl said to Bai Jinyu.

Bai Jinyu hurriedly waved his hand: "If you don't go, you can't go, I really can't stand that gong and drum, I stayed for a while, and my head kept hurting." ”

Sister Li said: "But there are a lot of delicious foods on the table, are you willing to do it?" ”

Bai Jinyu pursed her lips and smiled, narrowed her eyes and said, "Well, this...... It's a pity! When I'm hungry, I peel water chestnuts here and eat them, and the tender water chestnut rice beats all the delicacies. ”

Sister Li smiled strangely and gave Bai Jinyu a thumbs up: "Okay, it seems that it has really grown in the past few years!" Don't you read the bride too? ”

Bai Jinyu tilted his head and smiled even more, half-covering his mouth and said, "Don't hide it, I have already sneaked to see it earlier!" ”

Several girls immediately looked at each other in surprise, and someone asked: "You have seen it all, it is worthy of Bai Jinyu, when did you see it, and how was the bride born?" ”

Bai Jinyu said to you: "After the bride and groom worshipped heaven and earth, I followed up, the bride looked at it from a distance and seemed to be okay, but I didn't see it clearly, I was frightened away by the earth-shattering gongs and drums, and then I called you to come to Cailing!" ”

The girls nodded, asked her a few more words, and after making sure that she really didn't want to go, they didn't force it anymore, and said a few words, "You must bring the water chestnut to Wenyan" and left together.

Bai Jinyu looked at a boatload of water chestnuts, and his heart was full of joy.

Since she returned to Lujiang with Mrs. Rong three years ago to pick a ling, she has been thinking about it for three years. A group of people sit in a small wooden basin, rippling on the surface of the lake, singing fishing songs and turning up the floating leaves in the water.

Sitting alone in the boat and peeling and eating for a while, Bai Jinyu got up, picked up a slender and long penny, gently supported it against the shore, and rowed the boat into the water.

She rowed a long penny, and the boat carried the ripples to the green cattail, and walked leisurely into the lake. With the breeze blowing on the lake, she stood in the middle of the boat, dressed in layers of cyan clouds and silk, fluttering gently like cicada wings.

Delicious, isn't it?

The corners of her mouth lifted lightly, and those dishes at today's wedding banquet would also be given to Linhu Xiaozhu, thinking that Yiwen Yan's appetite couldn't eat much, and it wasn't all hers, the corners of her mouth rose even more involuntarily.

Rowing a small boat forward, out of the Lingtang, turned around is a higher than the head of the reed, the white reed swaying in the wind, like a bird's wings one by one.

My heart was relaxing, and suddenly, a sound of wading water suddenly came into my ears.

Bai Jinyu's ears were very strong, and she quickly recognized the location of the voice, and out of curiosity, she turned the penny lightly, turned it in a direction, and drove towards the place where the voice came from.

Turning a bush of pampas reeds, she raised her eyes, and suddenly saw a red figure standing in the water, the surface of the lake was no longer half of her body, and this person was still walking step by step towards the depths of the lake!

This...... Is someone looking for death?!

Realizing this, Bai Jinyu hurriedly shouted at the man: "Stop, stop!" Don't go any further! ”

The man in the water who was bent on death did not expect that a person would appear in front of him, and when he heard her voice of stopping, he immediately stopped.

Bai Jinyu hurriedly rowed the boat over, and when she got closer, she gradually saw the person in front of her clearly, and couldn't help but feel shocked and suspicious in her heart.

In the water is a beautiful woman, but this red veil and this bright makeup...... Bai Jinyu secretly thought: The Ke family is in a big family in Lujiang, and in order to marry the eldest son of the Ke family today, no one in this 20-mile radius dares to hold a marriage to steal the limelight. So the bride who appeared in front of you, don't think about it, nine times out of ten she is the bride of the Ke family.

Seeing Bai Jinyu's boat getting closer and closer, the woman showed a panicked look, hurriedly turned around and rushed to the side!

"Hey, be careful, don't run around!" As soon as Bai Jinyu reminded her, the woman slipped under her feet and carried her whole person into the water!

"Alas!" Bai Jinyu frowned, immediately put down the penny, and jumped into the water.
