Yan Qingge had already prepared a few poems, she thought about it in her heart, chose the most brilliant one, raised the small minibus slightly, and said loudly to the water: "Cherish the spring when it is over, and the heat is urging Hanlian." Ling Bo is fragrant and quiet, and his eyes are full of green shirts. is not a cold guest, noble and shining in the world. I am willing to go with the blue waves and plant the water in the coming year. ”

Whether it was Yan Qingge, Ling Xiao, or the three sisters of the Ning family, they all looked at Yan Shuyu with blank eyes, and they couldn't believe that this person was so stupid. Others repeatedly shirked and said not to compose poems, but she still read the poems out like this. Not only did he read it, but he also looked so self-absorbed, and what did he say, it was really miserable.

To be fair, the quality of the poem is mediocre, but if it's really just an eight-year-old girl's doing, it's amazing.

At this moment, a sneer suddenly came out on the water, and it was a man's voice: "What a talented girl." ”

I saw that on the water not far away, a young man in white picked up the layers of cyan lotus leaves and stood up on the water.

He was wearing a white dress with green bamboo branches, his hair was tied into a ponytail at the back of his head, his lips were red and his teeth were white, his appearance was handsome, his sword eyebrows flew straight into his temples, and he looked radiant and handsome.

Ling Xiao said excitedly: "Brother, it turns out that you have already arrived, aren't you coming the night after tomorrow?" ”

The young man tread the water, getting closer and closer to them, and when he came to them, he realized that there was a very small boat at his feet.

When he arrived, the young man saluted the three sisters of the Ning family and said, "I've seen Sister Ning." ”

Ning Minzhi said with a smile: "It turned out to be Ling Lie, it scared me a lot, when someone was secretly hiding there, he almost shouted to catch the thief." ”

"I came two days in advance, I wanted to find a quiet place to stay, but I didn't expect you to come, for fear of colliding with a few people, so I simply hid under the lotus leaves, but I didn't expect someone to compose a poem, and I couldn't help but bring out the poem. Sister Ning will only wronged me, I am a thief, and I am also a thief! Ling Lie pointed at something, and looked at Yan Shuyu with an unkind eyebrow.

He spoiled Ling Xiao the most, Yan Shuyu forced everyone to compose poems, but she was afraid that Ling Xiao would lose face, so she stepped forward and saved Ling Xiao.

Yan Shuyu's face was a little bad, she took two steps back slightly, stood behind the three sisters of the Ning family, and said lightly: "Since there are men here, let's go back." ”

Ling Xiao was holding Ling Lie's arm with a smile, asking long and short questions, but Yan Shuyu was interested, and said unhappily: "This is not an outsider, it's my brother Ling Lie." ”

Yan Qingge had expected Yan Shuyu to behave like this, and sneered in his stomach. Aunt Hai is used to fake fairies, and Mr. Chu in the family is an old lady who can't get married, what kind of good thing can Yan Shuyu teach, but her face is full of loyal martyrs, and her stomach is full of filthy heart.

The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are open, and the children of large families, not to mention that they have never followed the ancient rule of "men and women are not sitting at the age of eight", even when they are teenagers, they still often have the opportunity to go out and play together. Not to mention these people who have known each other since childhood, just to meet, and there are so many people, not alone, so naturally there is no need to shy away from it.

Ling Lie smiled with a smile that was not embarrassed or embarrassed, and said to Yan Shuyu across the three sisters of the Ning family: "This girl really has rules, since you don't see a foreign man, let's step back first." ”

Yan Shuyu looked at the three sisters of the Ning family and Yan Qingge, and saw that none of them had anything to leave, and she was angry in her heart. Twisted around and left with her two maids. Aunt Hai had already helped her plan, she only thought about marrying the prince in her heart, no matter how good Ling Lie was, she couldn't look down on her.

Ling Lie heard Ling Xiao mention Yan Qingge a few times, recognized her identity, and smiled to salute. Yan Qingge bowed down and said, "The sister in the family is not sensible, and I disturb the tranquility of Ling Gongzi, please forgive me." ”

Ling Lie waved his hand and smiled: "It's out of the way." He turned around and pinched Ling Xiao's nose affectionately: "If you don't study at home, you will only make jokes when you come out." ”

Ling Xiao jumped to his feet: "Brother said me again." I know that you are a good reader, and you are often praised by the master of Bailu Academy, so what? Our family doesn't rely on that little poetry skill to be the champion. She rolled her big eyes, pointed to the lonely boat that Ling Xiao threw on the water, and said, "Brother, I also want a boat, you help me find a bigger one, and I want to pick lotus flowers on the lake with my sisters." ”

"Not today, I'll look for you tomorrow." Ling Lie jumped back onto the boat and said to Ling Xiao: "I'll go first, it's hard to find a place to relax, don't tell your mother that I'm here." ”

Looking at Ling Lie's back as he stepped on the lotus, Ning Minlan and Ning Mincai's eyes showed a look of anticipation and admiration.

Ning Minzhi saw the eyes of these two sisters, and didn't care about them, but she didn't see them.

Ling Xiao and the others played for a while and went back, just in time for dinner. Dinner didn't have to be eaten together, the maids went to the big kitchen to bring the food, and each brought it to the house, and the dishes were sumptuous.

Yan Qingge and Ling Xiao's mother and daughter made a table together. After serving the table, Ling Xiao picked up the chopsticks, and He coughed and said, "Where is your brother?" ”

When Ling Xiao heard this, he said with an innocent face: "Isn't Brother Lie studying in Bailu Academy?" ”

He snorted: "I knew you were going to protect him." Now the whole Zhuangzi knows that your brother is coming, and he has collided with a few young ladies in the afternoon. ”

"What?" Ling Xiao looked at He Shi in confusion. He didn't say anything more, and bowed his head to eat.

Back in the house, Yan Qingge immediately called Ruyi out to inquire about the news. After a while, Ruyi walked in with a look of anger on her face and said, "Miss, I'm really angry!" The second lady was talking nonsense outside, saying that she saw that Hetian was beautiful and made a good poem, but the eldest lady, Miss Ling, and Miss Ning who went together didn't make it. and the son of the Ling family was also involved, saying that the son of the Ling family didn't even see her face, so he praised her as a talented woman and was scolded by her for being frivolous. ”

Yan Qingge actually laughed after hearing Ruyi's words. Ruyi said helplessly: "Miss, what are you laughing at?" ”

"Laughing at what? Laugh at some people to die! Yan Qingge said lightly.

In order to promote her reputation, Yan Shuyu dared to use the Ling Xiao brothers and sisters and Ning Minzhi as stepping stones, and she could only praise her for her courage.

Early the next morning, Yan Qingge went to apologize to He's. Yan Shuyu misbehaved, and she would take tired Yan Qingge to eat white eyes together. What others think of Yan Qingge, Yan Qingge doesn't care, but Ling Xiao is the first good friend she has made in her life, so naturally she can't let Ling Xiao's family have opinions about her.

He Shi saw Yan Qingge apologize to himself, and just smiled: "Hurry up!" Your child is really polite, who doesn't have one or two troublesome concubines, and it's none of your business. ”

Ling Xiao just fell asleep, rubbed his eyes and ran over with his clothes draped, and said, "Mom, I'm going to wear the clothes that my brother used to practice martial arts when he was a child. ”

Her maids Chunni and Guiyan hurriedly chased after them: "Miss, you get dressed and go out again." ”

Seeing Yan Qingge, Ling Xiao embarrassedly crawled into He's arms, stuck out his tongue, and said, "You got up so early?" ”

He rewarded her with a hairy chestnut: "Look at Qingge, he is one year younger than you, and he is much more stable than you." You're still like a little girl with no hair, running all over the yard early in the morning without getting dressed neatly, how did I give birth to meat like you. ”

Ling Xiao grabbed He's collar and just coquettishly: "Mother, you promise me to let me wear the clothes that my brother wore when he was a child, I specially brought it, I want to row and play today, and it is inconvenient to wear a skirt." ”

He couldn't grind her out, she agreed, Ling Xiao was happy, and after a while, she cleaned up and stopped, Yan Qingge's eyes lit up, and she saw that she was wearing a men's dress of the right size, with a snow-blue long-sleeved short coat on her upper body, royal blue pants on her lower body, a jade leather belt tied around her waist, and her cuffs and trouser legs were fastened with leather protectors lined with hard cloth, and her hair was tied into a men's hair ornament with a jade ring on the top of her head, and she didn't wear jewelry on her body.

"Sister Ling Xiao is dressed like this, she is really heroic." Yan Qingge said with a smile.

He squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully, and said, "If you don't look closely, it's almost the same as when your brother was a child." ”

After breakfast, Ling Xiao asked the maids to carry snacks and water, and jumped up and led Yan Qingge towards the lake.

When I arrived at the lake yesterday, I saw that there was an extra boat there, which was not only wide enough for the two of her to sit, but also had no problem lying side by side.

This boat was found by Ling Lie for her and placed here, the two brothers and sisters have always had a tacit understanding, and they can know each other without being passed on.

The boat was tied to the willow tree on the shore, Ling Xiao untied the rope, jumped on it, pulled Yan Qingge onto the boat, put the snacks and tea in the small cabin at the bow of the boat, and set sail.

Chunni and Guiyan saw a lot of Ling Xiao playing here, knowing that Ling Xiao had a good water nature, and he was impatient to follow, so he watched from afar on the shore, as long as Yan Qingge and the others were still in sight, there was no danger.

Ling Xiao can not only ride a horse, but also an expert in paddling, rocking the boat, not in a hurry, towards the depths of the lotus.

The lotus pond is not deep, the water inside is clear, and occasionally you can see fish swimming quickly. The water plants are clustered and wrapped around the lotus leaf stems, which is a beautiful decoration unique to the water surface.

Yan Qingge smiled and plucked the water with his hands, sang the song of picking lotus, and picked a big lotus leaf, removed the handle, and put it on his head to shade the sun. When Ling Xiao saw it, he also asked for a lotus leaf hat, and the two of them looked at me and I looked at you, giggling.

Now is the time when the lotus flowers bloom well, they pick the lotus flowers all the way, and it doesn't take long for the boat to be full, and the sun is rising higher and higher, and the sun is getting sunburned, the fragrance is steaming, and the people who smell it are about to get drunk.

Ling Xiao shook all the way, almost ran out of strength, and took Yan Qingge to the only bridge and cave on the lotus field to escape the heat.

The two of them lay side by side on the boat, each covering their faces with a large lotus leaf, and they didn't speak, feeling cool.

Yan Qingge almost never went out in his previous life, and he had very few friends. Yesterday's teasing of the little red horse has made her feel that there is no other beautiful thing in the world, and today's lotus pond play, it is even more relaxed, and she has discovered another wonderful world, and the depths of her heart seem to be soaked in lotus fragrance.
