Lakeside of Love (3)

I grabbed my clothes, and didn't care about anything else, so I ran into the woods in front of me, hurriedly took off my wet clothes, and changed into a bleak T-shirt.

When he hugged me, his shirt was stained with water and mud, but it didn't matter, the dress was too precious to solve my urgent needs.

The T-shirt was wide on my body, covering the buttocks of my soaked pants, and I tugged at the neckline from time to time to keep it from going out. After walking out of the woods, he was gone. Looking around, I saw that he was swimming up from the lake, holding my hat, which had drifted away when I fell into the water, and I didn't even notice it.

Xiao Se climbed ashore and stood by the lake naked, he looked a little thin, but in fact, the muscles of his upper body were strong and beautiful, and the healthy wheat-colored skin had water droplets constantly sliding down, shining in the sun, it was a young and energetic body. Not daring to look at him more, I walked up to him and said "thank you" with my eyes down, my eyes falling on his wet, stained trouser legs and sneakers.

"You're welcome." He handed me his hat and chuckled, "I came to fish, but I was caught by the fish." Let's go, hurry back to the shower and change clothes. ”

Then we all set our eyes on Senator Ye, who was still fishing leisurely, and we made such a big fuss, and he actually ignored it. At this time, the fishing rod in Senator Ye's hand moved, and he pulled hard, and a fish six or seven inches long was shining in the sun. He pulled the line back, but the fish somehow broke free from the hook and fell into the grass.

Xiao Se pounced and grabbed the fish, and the fish jumped out of his palm again, and he grabbed it again, and held it tightly with both hands, and the tail of the fish still swung up and down under his palm, and its mouth opened and closed in vain. It took a lot of effort for Xiao Se to finally put the fish in the basket.

The sight of the fish struggling made me unbearable, and a touch of pity passed through my heart. "Why don't you let it go, how pitiful."

Xiao Se looked up, his eyes fixed on my face, wandering over my face.

The fish were still jumping around in the basket, and the basket crackled with a fluttering sound. At this moment, Senator Ye suddenly lifted the fish basket, and almost without even thinking about it, he poured the only fish in the basket back into the river, and the fish swirled in the water a few times, like a silver thread into the depths of the river, and disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Se and I were stunned. After a while, Xiao Se looked at the empty fish basket and asked, "Master, didn't you say that you want to eat braised fish for dinner, I finally caught a big fish, how can I ......?"

"I'm just talking about it." Senator Ye looked at me deeply, "Even if I want to eat braised fish, I won't eat the fish in this lake, they all have spirituality." You're a good girl. ”

I was a little flattered to receive the compliment from this good-tempered old man, and I didn't know how to respond. I unconsciously looked at Xiao Se and was surprised to find that his eyes were red. When he saw me looking at him, he walked away to straighten the fishing rod and muttered something in his mouth.

I thought he was sad that he had worked hard to catch fish for the old man but had failed, and remembering that he had helped me a lot just now, I couldn't help but feel sorry, and walked up behind him and whispered, "I didn't mean to make you angry, I really think the fish is pitiful." ”

Xiao Se turned his head and smiled at me. "It has nothing to do with you, I am sad and happy, I only learned today that the rich man does not eat the fish in this lake."

"He doesn't eat the fish in the lake, why are you sad and happy?" I'm confused.

"I'll tell you when I get a chance." Xiao Se smiled and ran his hand through my hair. "The master is right, you are a good girl."

I rejected his affectionate gesture and stepped back.

His hand paused in mid-air, and his expression was a little lonely.

I avoided his gaze, and caught a glimpse of Senator Ye coming over with an empty fish basket, and lifting the empty fish basket that Xiao Se had placed on the ground before, I don't know if he was not good at fishing or something else, in short, he didn't catch a single fish before I fell into the water.

"After a long day's work, both fish baskets are empty." Xiao Se teased that he had regained his playful appearance.

Senator Ye looked at us with a strange look. "Your empty fish baskets are full of happiness, and mine is empty."

I was amazed that this old man from the countryside could say such profound words, and at the same time I was struck by the loneliness and loneliness in his tone. I stared at him and said, "Your empty fish basket is full of memories, which are more precious than our pleasures." ”

Senator Ye's tense face softened a lot, and there was even a slight smile in his eyes, he nodded at me and turned to pack up the fishing rod.

"I'll help you get it back." Xiao Se stepped forward to help.

"No, I'm not old enough!" Senator Ye immediately changed his face and stopped coldly, "Let me put it all away, I can take it myself." You two are so dirty, why don't you go back to the shower. ”

Xiao Se and I looked at each other, and he shrugged helplessly. "Let's go, go back to the shower."
