Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 316 Looking for fun

Eighth Master felt relieved.This victory came very timely.It not only boosted everyone's morale, but also hit Galdan's arrogance.It is also good news for the other two armies.

Although when Ba Ye was in Beijing, Mao Tongtong stayed in his yard most of the time.Just to be active, the scope is only the backyard of the Baylor Mansion, and I don't have to deal with other people.But now that Ba Ye is out of Beijing, the mansion feels extraordinarily quiet.

The few women in the backyard also had a rare tacit understanding.Everyone stayed alone without disturbing the river water, and there was no commotion.The days are somewhat boring.

Although Mao Tongtong tried his best to find something to do for himself, he was a little bit unmotivated.

"Gege, why don't the servants call Qing Cong and the others to play leaf cards with you?" Qing Zhu suggested.

Mao Tongtong shook his head, how many slaves are they, playing cards with her is a bit of a way to give way to her.Although she rewarded them with all the money she won in the end, it's not fun to keep doing this.

"Why don't Gege go to appreciate the lotus?" Qingzhu said again: "Now that it's autumn, it won't be hot sooner or later."

"I'm afraid the lotus will all thank you." Mao Tongtong said.

"There should be more." Qing Zhu was also not sure, and said: "Why don't I let Xiao Quanzi go and see?"

"This should be the time to pick the lotus pods. How about we row a boat to pick the lotus pods!" Mao Tongtong became a little interested.

"Ge Ge, I'm afraid this is not a good idea." Qingzhu said in a dilemma: "Picking lotus pods is dangerous, let the servants do it."

"What's the danger? It's in our house. Besides, you forgot that I can swim?" Mao Tongtong laughed.

"But in case something happens, how will the maidservant explain to Lord Belle?" Qingzhu persuaded.

Thinking about when he was in Chengde last year, Qingzhu felt a little scared.Even water is dangerous!

"Look at you timid." Mao Tongtong said with a smile: "What can happen! Don't worry, my water skills are still very good. Just find a little eunuch with good rowing skills."

"Ge Ge, you really went!" Qingzhu immediately regretted it.Alright, what kind of lottery did she propose!

"Finally, there is something that arouses my interest. Of course I will!" Mao Tongtong has already stood up. "Practicing calligraphy, painting, and embroidery every day is just sitting in the room and not moving. After a long time, it will be harmful to the body. Not good either. It's going to be cooler now, so I should go out and move around more."

Seeing that she couldn't stop it, Qingzhu had no choice but to go to Wu Youcai and ask him to find someone with good boating skills, so as not to cause accidents in the lotus pond later.

When Wu Youcai heard this, he also frowned.

"Why don't you persuade Grid! How dangerous it is! Lord Baylor is not here, so what if something happens!"

"If I can persuade you, I won't come to you." Qingzhu said depressedly, after thinking about it, he said again: "Why don't you talk to Mother Guo?"

"Don't!" Wu Youcai quickly waved his hand, and said, "Nurse Guo said she was in charge of the backyard, but she was also a slave. Gege's status is not high now, but she is favored! If she is allowed to manage the backyard, I'm afraid I will uncomfortable."

"I was just thinking that Ge Ge would listen to Guo Nanny's persuasion." Qingzhu said.

"Forget it, it's rare for Gege to be interested, so let's not disappoint." Wu Youcai said, "I'll find someone to prepare the boat right now, and if you let Gege come out in the evening, it won't be hot."

"Okay, I'll go and talk to Gege right now. You must find someone with a good rowing skill." Qingzhu reminded again worriedly.

"Are you still worried about my work?" Wu Youcai smiled and hurried away.

Qingzhu sighed, turned and went back to the house.

"Qingzhu, can you stop looking like this? It's very romantic to go boating on the lake, it makes me feel like I've done something outrageous!" Mao Tongtong was dumbfounded by Qingzhu's appearance.

"Gege, your body has just taken care of itself!" Qingzhu said with a choked mouth.

"Okay, I have a sense of propriety. If you keep looking so sad, I'll take it as if you cursed me for an accident!" Mao Tongtong said with a serious face.

"No! How could this servant think so!" Qingzhu hastily denied.

"So, don't worry! I finally found something fun!" Mao Tongtong stepped forward and pulled the corner of Qingzhu's mouth with his hand, and said with a smile: "Come on, have a laugh! Let's pick more lotus pods later, and we can make ice in the evening White sugar lotus seeds to eat."

Qing Zhu smiled, and said: "The servant will help Ge Ge pick some more later."

"Hey, that's right!" Mao Tongtong laughed.

In the evening, when the sun was setting and the sunset clouds were flying in the sky, Mao Tongtong set off with the green bamboo and green shoots in high spirits.

When we arrived at the lotus pond, the boat was ready.Because I want to pick lotus pods, I can't use a big boat, so I prepared a small one.Mao Tongtong saw that besides the boatman, there could be two people on the boat.

"Qing Miao, just stay on the shore and let Qingzhu accompany me." Mao Tongtong said.When they came out, Qing Miao also wanted to be together.

"Well, Ge Ge be careful." Qing Miao nodded, and obediently stood on the shore waiting.

Wu Youcai and Quan Dali were also waiting on the shore, fearing that they could help in time.

Mao Tongtong boarded the boat with green bamboo, and the little eunuch at the bow supported the bamboo pole, and the boat slid towards the middle of the lotus pond.

At this time, the lotus flowers in the lotus pond have all withered, leaving only the green lotus leaves and plump lotus pods.

This was Mao Tongtong's first time picking lotus pods, so she couldn't help being a little excited.Before the boat had rowed far, it couldn't wait to reach out and grab the nearby lotus.

"Be careful!" Qingzhu couldn't help shouting.Seeing that most of her Gege's body was leaning out, her heart was raised.

The little eunuch who was rowing the boat was startled, and with a shake of his hand, the boat shook.

"Qingzhu, I'm fine, but you'll scare me into trouble!" Mao Tongtong said speechlessly.

"Gege forgive me, servant girl, servant girl is too nervous." Qingzhu said embarrassedly.

"Come on, pass me the scissors, this one is good." Mao Tongtong stretched out his hand.

Qingzhu quickly handed over the prepared scissors.

Mao Tongtong cut off the first lotus pod neatly.

"Look, this is really fresh and tender." Mao Tongtong held up the lotus pod that had just been cut, and said with a smile.

Qing Zhu turned pale with fright, and said: "Ge Ge, sit back quickly."

"Qingzhu, are you afraid of water?" Mao Tongtong asked doubtfully.

On weekdays, I have never found Qingzhu to be so timid.

"No maidservant." Qingzhu hurriedly said, but the panic in her eyes betrayed her.

"Qingzhu, you said earlier that you were afraid of water, so I told Qingmiao to come down." Mao Tongtong said helplessly.

"Slaves are really not afraid!" Qingzhu straightened up and said.As if to prove herself, she followed Mao Tongtong's example and went looking for the lotus pod with scissors.
