Chapter 15: Fishing
Chapter 15 Fishing
After the carriage entered the mountain, it was not far away and could not go further, the mountain road gradually became steeper, the trees were tall, and the branches and leaves formed a dome on the head, blocking the sun, and after not going far, it felt cool and forested, and the place that touched the eye was full of green.
"It's cool." Xiao Dong looked behind with a smile: "I should have come here to escape the summer a long time ago." β
After leaving the capital, I felt that the air outside smelled good, and Xiao Dongle worked diligently like a bird out of the cage, and everything was fresh and interesting to watch.
Xiao Dong sat on a sliding pole, and Zhao Lu and Qin Lie climbed the mountain on two legs. Although Zhao Lu practiced boxing and riding horses every day, after walking on the mountain road for a while, his face was red and he was panting. Qin Lie is still at ease, and he is simply walking like a fly.
Xiao Dong sat back, while spitting on himself for greedy enjoyment of corruption and depravity, while thinking that this family is not as wild as others, and its vitality is much worse.
But after four years, if Qin Lie is now in the heart of Zhao Lu, he will definitely be far from being an opponent.
The leaves fluttered on the tarpaulin of the sliding pole, and Xiao Dong reached out and grabbed a leaf in his hand.
"It's just ahead."
Xiao Dong poked his head forward and looked forward, and sure enough, he saw someone in front of him coming up, so he bowed and saluted from a distance.
This mountain villa is not as big as Xianyunzhuang, the houses are exquisite, the roof is paved with scales and black tiles, the moss in front of the steps is green, the porch is paved with wooden boards, polished very smooth, Xiaodong faded his shoes and leaned back, regretting that he did not come to the villa early to escape the summer - the first two years have been delayed by this and that, she has never known that Donghua Mountain is such a wonderful place.
"Sister, we're in."
Xiao Dong hurriedly sat up and covered his bare feet with the hem of his skirt.
Zhao Lu had already come in, holding half of a cut watermelon in his hand - the watermelon pulp had been dug out, and it was filled with bayberry, pear, grapes, honeydew melons and other fruits.
"Soak it in mountain spring water and eat it."
Xiaodong was not polite, and first picked a piece of honeydew melon to eat.
Zhao Lu had already changed his clothes, the heat on his face had not gone down, and he looked much cuter than usual.
Qin Liexiao also sat cross-legged on the ground, Xiao Dong ate several pieces in a row, only to remember that the two of them were watching from the side, and pushed the watermelon forward: "You eat it too." β
Zhao Lu smiled and took a piece of pear. Qin Lie just smiled, Xiao Dong followed his gaze and saw his toes peeking out from under the hem of his skirt, round and white, pink and tender. She quickly shrank back and sat honestly.
Qin Lie didn't seem to pay attention to her toes, or her small movements, and talked to Zhao Lu: "When I went up the mountain just now, I listened to the sound of the stream, so I guess Fengxi is very close to here. β
Zhao Lu finished eating the pears, and said while wiping his hands: "Don't you see that the foundation of this Zhuangzi is high?" Just because of the continuous rainstorm one year, the water of Fengxi Creek swelled, washing away the surrounding area. If this Zhuangzi had not had a high foundation, he would not have been spared. Going out from the back door, it is only a hundred steps away from Fengxi, it is a shallow beach with gentle water, and you can see the fish swimming in the water when you stand at the water's edge. β
"Okay, then let's rest and go in the afternoon?"
Zhao Lu looked at Xiaodong first: "Is my sister tired?" β
Xiao Dong smiled and said, "Don't be tired, I'll go after a break." β
Although she changed to a new place, Xiaodong slept very well, and when she woke up, she was refreshed and asked Hongfu to help her change her clothes. The newly-cut short shirt and skirt of Xia Ying Yarn were cool and light, and Xiao Dong combed a braid and went out on sandals made of core straw. Zhao Lu and Qin Lie were both dressed in cloth clothes, with a hat buttoned on their heads, and Zhao Lu was still holding a snow-white fine grass hat in his hand, and put it on for Xiao Dong with a smile: "Don't get sunburned." β
They took the rods and baskets with them, and only brought two or three people. Sure enough, I didn't have to go far to get there. A large area of clear water, the cool breeze blows, which makes people feel refreshed. On the banks of the river grew large patches of reeds, which grew thick and green, and the leaves of the reeds were blown by the wind, rustling and rustling.
"Sister sit here, it's cool here."
Zhao Lu found a good place for Xiao Dong, the smooth bluestone was under the shadow of the tree, and Xiao Dong didn't have to worry about the bait and rod, she just sat there and watched. Zhao Lu also threw the line with a smile, Qin Lie shook his head with his hands crossed on the side, and said with a smile: "We never catch fish like this. β
"Rough man." Zhao Lu said hatefully: "Fishing is not for eating, but for the pleasure of fishing." β
Xiao Dong is also impatient with fishing, but he has a common language with Qin Lie. Qin Lie said, "Sister Xiaodong, I'll play a song for you." He plucked a reed leaf and rolled it into a whistle, and luck blew.
The sound of the whistle was clear and melodious, like the sound of a flute, far away on the flat river beach.
Xiao Dong sat there with his knees folded and listened quietly, I don't know if he was alarmed by the whistle, and a wild bird fluttered up from among the reeds, flapped its wings and swept over the water, flew into the green trees on the opposite bank, and disappeared.
"Does it sound good?"
Xiao Dong nodded sincerely.
"I'll roll one for you, too."
Qin Lie made another reed whistle and handed it to Xiao Dong.
Xiao Dong followed his example and blew it carefully.
Belch...... No sound.
Qin Lie patiently instructed: "You have to drum up your strength, your mouth is puffed, and your breath is not dispersedβcome, try again." β
Xiao Dong looked at him, then at the whistle in his hand, cleared his throat, and tried again with his cheeks as he said.
"Squeakβ"
At last there was a sound, but the sound was indescribably strange, like a rat's cry, and like a rusty door shaft. If you close your eyes and listen to it, it's like someone has put a shy fart.
Xiao Dong's face turned red, Zhao Lu laughed, left the fishing rod and walked over: "I'll try." β
Sure enough, this thing took advantage of the strength, Zhao Lu tried it twice and got the hang of it, blowing five notes in turn. Xiao Dong clapped his hands and applauded, Zhao Lu shook his head and said, "I'm not used to this, my mouth is sour." It doesn't matter, if you want to listen to it, come back and find the flute and I'll play it for you. β
Zhao Lu can play the flute, and King An likes to play the flute, he has several pipes, bamboo, wood, and jade, but he doesn't play it often.
Xiao Dong learned the piano skills of a three-legged cat, and from time to time he could play an ensemble with Zhao Lu - anyway, the level was half a catty to eight taels, and the bald man didn't have to laugh at the monk. Neither brother nor sister has inherited An Wang's artistic cells, but they can barely bluff laymen.
Qin Lie smiled and blew another song by himself. The whistle is less delicate than the flute, but it is more exciting, Qin Lie blew a few notes, Xiao Dong did not waste King An's years of cultivation, and he heard that he was blowing a hillside sheep.
Zhao Lu gently tapped the beat with one hand, and then sang softly at the end: "...... Can Ann always be at ease? name, also outside the body. Benefit, also outside the body. β
Xiao Dong grinned and pointed to Zhao Lu's fishing rod: "Brother, the fish has run away." β
But no, the fish has already bitten off the bait and run away.

What do you have...... Is there a way to keep people from staying in bed? Scratching your head, whether it's in the morning or taking a nap, you can't get up when you fall asleep......
Probably everyone is like this in the winter...... The quilt is so warm, and it's so cold outside~~
