Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 775 Reed
"Those two kinds of medicine, if Hou Ye and Zhen'er drink them for several months, they will always bear fruit! Lord Hou, don't worry." Dong Shuyu comforted him.

Zhu Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this.

Dong Shuyu...why did you think of this again?

Dong Shuzhen, who was holding a fishing net in her hand, suddenly changed her expression when she heard this, feeling bitter and expectant at the same time.

It was bitter because the concoction was as bitter as poison. She and Zhu Xiuyuan had been drinking it for several days. It was really a painful experience.

That medicine is so bitter!

When Dong Shuzhen thought about it now, her little face changed.

The expectation is to be able to conceive a baby as soon as possible...

"Ahem... Shuyu is right, you're right, I'm just too worried, so I feel upset... eh..."

Zhu Xiuyuan was about to cry but had no tears.

I thought that this Dong Shuyu was originally an extremely intelligent woman, but this time, her intelligence went in the wrong direction.

There were so many people here that it was inconvenient for Zhu Xiuyuan to elaborate on his real troubles, so he could only follow Dong Shuyu's lead and admit it quickly, otherwise, he didn't know where Dong Shuyu would think.

Seeing this, Dong Shuyu thought he had guessed Zhu Xiuyuan's troubles, so he "solved" him in a different way, doing his duty with all his heart, just like an elder.

Zhu Xiuyuan kept responding with "um" and "oh".

The wry smile on his face never dissipated.

"Wow, look, there is a reed swamp in front of you! Those reeds are so tall!"

Dong Shuzhen suddenly exclaimed, interrupting Dong Shuyu's "explanation".

Zhu Xiuyuan was finally saved.

He immediately stood up and looked around, "Where is it? Where is it?"

"Look, husband, it's right behind you." Dong Shuzhen pointed excitedly.

Zhu Xiuyuan turned around and looked back. Sure enough, there was a piece of reed growing on the river a few feet away, covering the entire river.

The reeds are densely packed and the leaves are prosperous, covering the river surface tightly.

I can't see clearly what's going on inside.

"Your Majesty, this reed swamp is about a mile in diameter, and this small river runs through it. It is a good place to cool down and escape the heat!"

On another small boat, the steward Zhuangzi who came with him raised his hands and said loudly.

"That means our ship can sail in?" Dong Shuzhen was curious.

"Madam, it is indeed true! From the outside, this reed marsh is densely packed, but when you get closer, you can find that it actually has an entrance, which can allow three or four small boats to pass side by side!" said the steward.

"Okay, haha... Husband, let's take the boat in and have a look. It must be very fun in there!"

Dong Shuzhen dropped the fishing net and ran over, holding Zhu Xiuyuan's hand and shaking it.

"You don't fish anymore?" Zhu Xiuyuan said with a smile.

"No more nets, Xia Wu and I have already caught dozens of big fish, it should be enough!"

Dong Shuzhen pointed her finger casually, and Zhu Xiu looked away and was stunned for a moment.

Just now, he was just chatting with Dong Shuyu, but he didn't realize that Dong Shuzhen and the others had caught such a big pile of fish...

Sure enough, as Zhuangzi's steward said, the fish in the river are fat and plump. There are several big fish that are one foot long, two feet long, and even three feet long!
"This small river is really rich in fish!" Zhu Xiuyuan was slightly surprised.

"Husband, let's go take a look in the reed swamp?" Dong Shuzhen continued to act coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, since we're here, let's go in and have a look. But madam, you have caught so many big fish. Once we have seen the reed marsh, we will go back. Do you understand?"

Zhu Xiuyuan touched her head.

"Understood, after visiting the reed marsh, we will go back!" Dong Shuzhen nodded. "Well, let's go inside and take a look. What a good place it is to cool down and relieve the heat!"

At this moment, the generals rowed the oars vigorously.

Several small boats, like arrows from the string, headed straight for the reed marsh a few feet away.

It's getting closer, and some details can be seen clearly.

Sure enough, this reed marsh has an entrance and is quite spacious.

After rowing in, the boat made a few turns and was completely hidden in the reeds.

From the outside, it’s impossible to see the ships inside!

Coupled with the sound of the wind blowing through the reeds and the sound of water flowing, even if someone is shouting inside, it may not be heard outside...

This place is indeed a good place to do bad things!
Ok?
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly remembered something, and stared at Dong Shuyu, his eyes were burning with a trace of fire.

That look was like a hunter looking at his prey.

Dong Shuyu felt as if she had been bitten by a mosquito, and her whole body trembled. She immediately avoided Zhu Xiuyuan's sight and secretly covered her heart with her hands. She always felt palpitations.

Something seems to be happening in this completely hidden reed marsh.

But she couldn't tell clearly...

After a while, they strolled around in the reed swamps, and everyone was satisfied. Since it was noon, everyone's stomachs were growling, so they immediately returned and started having a picnic.

After the picnic, they will go for an outing along the river.

After the outing, they still wanted to release paper kites!
They returned to the "base" and when they disembarked from the boat, they could already smell it. The air was filled with the aroma of food, which tempts their appetites.

Among the crowd who followed this time, there were more than ten chefs from the Hou Mansion.

These fragrances are created by them.

"Grill fish, grill fish, grill all these fish..."

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuyu walked side by side towards the recliners.Behind him, Dong Shuzhen's instructions came, and then the chefs in the mansion said: "Yes, yes..."

Soon, an extremely rich outdoor dinner began.

The thick silk cloth spread on the grass was already filled with various cups and dishes.

Dozens of simple and sumptuous dishes, full of color, aroma and flavor, firmly attract everyone's noses.

Using the earth as the dining table and the sky as the roof, this way of dining is really unique, and this full of fun makes everyone eat happily.

Even Dong Shuyu, who always had a small appetite, ate half a bowl more.

Dong Shuzhen also ate the grilled fish that she longed for.

It was a big fish that was two feet long. It was impaled on a wooden stick. She held the stick and gnawed it wildly, until her eyes turned into crescent moons.

The meal was finished in no time.

After resting for a while, everyone planned to start the outing.

Outings during the Shangsi Festival are different from outings during other festivals.

When outing, everyone must hold a bouquet of flowers in their hands.

The most common ones are peach blossoms or orchids.

Young men and women, holding flowers in hand, go for an outing along the river, stop and go, enjoy the beautiful scenery, exchange feelings, and feel the beauty of nature, so as to get rid of the stuffiness accumulated in the human body throughout the winter!
Flowers can't be picked fresh, and there aren't any here.

They had been prepared for it, and among the cargo of the five or six carriages they brought, there were many flowers, which had just been picked in the morning and were still fresh.
