Pastoral Jiaoyi's mother and father are here

Chapter 367
June [-]th, Kowloon Lake, lotus festival.

On this day, countless exquisitely painted boats floated on Jiulong Lake, with green leaves and red lotuses, willow embankments, and beautiful women reflected in the green water.

Gu Xiangsi took the largest two-story painting boat, and she was standing in front of the railing on the second floor, holding the telescope she asked Dan Xueji to make, and looked at the whole situation.

There are two types of boats, pink gauze curtains, and the one with hibiscus stone wind chimes hanging on the bow, which is the painting boat of the girl's family.

The blue gauze curtain and the blue chalcedony wind chime hanging on the bow are the son's painting boat.

As for those painting boats hung with Xiaying gauze curtains, there are two boats tied by a braided rope in the middle of the boats, which are painting boats for engaged men and women.Although they are engaged, they can't go beyond the rules to meet each other, they can only talk through the curtain with a distance of one foot between the two painting boats.

This is the ancient law of etiquette, even if it is an engaged and unmarried couple, before they get married, only the parents of both parties have seen the man and woman, but they will not meet.

But this Xia Yingsha is very frivolous, and the distance between them is not very far, so that they can see each other's blurred figures, and chat with each other, which is also interesting.

Gu Xiangsi's binoculars saw a pair of bold men and women, they even lifted the gauze curtain, threw the sachet and folding fan across the water, tsk tsk tsk!This kind is really eye-catching, and when they get married in the future, they must be a harmonious husband and wife.

She walked to the side again and looked at another painting boat, just in time to see Xiling Cong who lifted the curtain and showed his face. This kid is near the painting boat of other girls, is he looking at some girl?

These gauze curtains are not closed. Sometimes, the girls will fold the lotus leaves and prepare to go home for flower arrangement.

It is also because of this that these sons can only occasionally see the appearance of the girls in these painting boats.

It seems to be a flower viewing, but in fact it is a woman who makes flowers, and a man is a flower viewer.

Because it is on the lake, no one said anything about these small actions. After all, everyone is here to go on a blind date, and they are all young people, so they can really abide by the rules. How about a wishful man and a wonderful beauty?

In the painting boat of Xiling Cong, there are quite a few of his cousins, there are four or five of them in total!
They came here for a blind date, and to help this kid, who made him so stupid that he couldn't even memorize poems.

There are about 300 or nearly [-] men and women on the blind date this time. If there is one painting boat for each person, no matter how big the Jiulong Lake is, no matter how many and wide the waterways are, it will not be able to handle so many painting boats!
Therefore, Gu Xiangsi asked them to have good sisters and good boys to take a boat together, so that a hundred boats would be completed.

There will be no boat jams on the water, and everyone can walk among the lotus leaves and enjoy the blue leaves and red lotuses of Jiulong Lake.

The scent of lotus, the cool breeze, the exquisite painting, the young boys and girls, charming and handsome, walking in the green water, that is the most pleasing picture in the scorching summer.

"The blazing lotus is auspicious, and the pavilion emerges from the water. A solitary stem attracts green, and the two shadows share the red." On the opposite side of the pink curtain painting boat, a girl recited a poem in a crisp voice, waiting for the opposite blue curtain painting boat. People got it right.

snort!If you dare to stop their boat, you can't clean them up.snort!

Xiling Cong scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time, but couldn't figure out how to connect.

"What are you scratching your ears and cheeks for? You're right! Didn't you hear all the girls mention Bing Tilian?" One of the boys, who was a little older than Xiling Cong, urged him in a low voice, tsk!They were really worried for this cousin.

Several other people were also anxious, but they couldn't think of it for a while, how to get it right!
Someone walked over and pulled Liu Yifeng who was drinking tea in the painting boat to his feet, and asked him with a small smile: "Cousin, you can save this kid, we are all brothers, we can't just ignore death."

Liu Yifeng didn't want to come before, after all, he already had a heart to belong to, even though he couldn't get engaged to Chen'er now, but...he didn't want to come to join in the excitement of the blind date again.

"Cousin Liu, saving people is like putting out a fire, think about it quickly." The young man who was holding Liu Yifeng's arm was so anxious that he was about to scratch him, don't be slow, okay?Speed ​​oh speed.

Liu Yifeng brushed his paws away, sat down with his sleeves brushed, dipped his pen in ink, wrote four poems on a folding fan, dried the ink, and handed it to the eager young man beside him.

Holding the folding fan, the young man hurried over and handed it to Xiling Cong, hoo!Sure enough, it was the right thing to bring this nerdy cousin.

Xiling Cong opened his folding fan, glanced at a few lines of the poem, and managed to remember them.Feng Ya shook her fan, cleared her throat, opened the gauze curtain with one hand, looked at the opposite painting boat and said softly: "The green lotus covers the green water, the hibiscus is covered with fresh red. There is a lotus root on the bottom, and a lotus on the top."

The gauze curtain of the painting boat opposite was also brushed away by a green hand, and a girl with a small face and bright eyes covered her mouth with a fan and smiled at him. How is your wife?"

"Ah?" Xiling Cong was taken aback by the question, and was also taken aback by the girl.Pushed by his cousin behind him, he woke up in an instant, and immediately confessed: "When I have a daughter-in-law, I will definitely give her food, clothing, and fun. I will give her whatever she wants, and I will definitely be obedient." ,Gentle."

The little girl was amused by him, put down the curtain, walked back, and discussed with her little sisters.

One of the girls frowned lightly and said, "Why do I think this... sounds a bit strange?"

"There's nothing strange about it? People are all obedient to Lingge, what else do you want?" A girl scratched this little sister's itch and frolicked, and a group of girls just laughed and quarreled together, pure and innocent. good.

"It's true, we can't ask too much, it will scare everyone away." Chu Lingge is a straightforward girl, since this person dared to promise her these words, she chose him.

Xiling Cong stood there dumbfounded for a long time before he saw the pink curtain lifted again, and a round fan was thrown into his arms across the water. After a little push from his brothers, he was busy closing the fan and preparing to throw it...

"What are you doing? This is my fan." A brother caught it in a hurry, otherwise, when this kid cheated, he would be exposed.

After Xiling Cong was stunned for a moment, he came to his senses, hurriedly took out his own folding fan from his waist, raised his hand and threw it to the girl in the opposite painting boat, smiling silly with flushed cheeks, feeling like a dream.

Chu Linge caught the folding fan, and went into the boat with a smile, and ordered the boat to leave.

"Hey, why are you leaving? A few of us...you didn't like one of you?" Cousin and cousin were in tears, do you want to be so cruel?

The boat stopped again, and a girl smiled and sang a poem again: "Ask Yu why he lives in Bishan, smile but don't answer. The peach blossoms and flowing water go away, there is no world but the world. Guess my name, I will I will give you the fan."

This girl is also a bold woman, and she dares to make such a promise.

"Ah? Guess... Guess the name?" The one who called was the grandson of the eldest princess's family, named Bai Ruoxu. He is 17 years old this year and has not yet married. is also among them.

The others also racked their brains one by one, thinking, they can't let the brother miss a marriage just because of a name, right?

Liu Yifeng really can't stand it anymore, these idiots, it's nothing if they don't study hard and practice martial arts, they don't even know about people like Xilan City, they really don't intend to serve the country as officials in the court at all Yes or no?
Bai Ruoxu was stuffed with a note by Liu Yifeng, and carefully replaced the folding fan in his hand. He was really grateful to this cousin.Looking down at the name on the note, he began to put on a show and sighed: "Miss, this is too embarrassing, but after thinking hard, I still made a rough guess. I don't know... Is it worth it?"

"Probably? Well, forget it, you say it!" The girl was very generous and didn't make things difficult for him. As long as he could make a rough guess, she would consider him right and would give him the fan according to Nuo.

Bai Ruoxu waved his fan and coughed lightly, "In this poem, there are three common surnames, Xu, He, and Shui. And in "Shuowen", the rest are spared, and the young lady wants to spare them." I'm sorry, so... Miss should have a double surname Xu Ye! And there are several names in these poems that are suitable for my daughter's family. Among them, Bi and Taohua are too vulgar, and Miss will definitely not have such a common name. So, I will be bold Guess, Miss Xu's boudoir name should have the character '檅', which means far-reaching vision."

"Master, are you saying that I have a far-sighted vision, so I will fall in love with this...hidden talent?" This Miss Xu is also humorous, and when she said something, everyone laughed.

"My lady, hurry up, I guessed it right, give me the fan!" Chu Lingge coaxed, and everyone gathered around and pushed Xu Wenniang, telling her to quickly throw the fan to the young master.

Xu Yuniang was also a very forthright and promise-keeping woman. She put on a veil, lifted the curtain with bare hands, and threw a hibiscus fan across the water to the other party.

Bai Ruoxu caught the fan and smiled foolishly, then threw the folding fan in his hand to Xu Yuniang, and watched the painting boat go away.

Xiling Cong looked at the two cousins ​​behind him strangely, why didn't they ask the girl for a fan?

The two of them didn't pay attention to the girls in the painting boat, not because the girls were not good-looking, but... I really didn't feel it!

Who is as stupid as they are, who decide to marry when they see one?

Gu Xiangsi watched them for a long time on the second floor of the painting boat, unexpectedly, two girls in the painting boat fell in love with them, these monkeys?
It's a pity that I couldn't hear what they were talking about, but I could only see someone throwing a fan twice.

This is the rule she made with everyone at the beginning, throw fans at each other if they meet each other, and leave if they don't.

The young masters and ladies who came today all belong to first-rate and second-rate families, and tomorrow they will be young masters and ladies from third-rate and fourth-rate families.

After that, there are the daughters of commoner scholars and ordinary people.

There are merchants' daughters and Xiaojiabiyu. Anyway, they are both male and female with similar status. This is also an arrangement to satisfy their parents.

Otherwise, why would the lords and wives of these rich families nod their heads and let their girls show their faces and go on a blind date in the lake?

Naturally, it was because Jin Yanlou and the official media had arranged for a well-matched son and daughter, so these parents were satisfied, and they reluctantly nodded in agreement.

well!Whether it is ancient or modern, if the door is wrong, the door is wrong, in the end, there will be many inconsistencies and contradictions.

There is only one living habit, which is very different, not to mention the thoughts of the two parents.

It is said that marriage is a matter of two families. The man and woman are lingering in love at the beginning, but as time goes by, the relationship between the husband and wife will always weaken due to the constant conflicts between the two families, and some conflicts may even arise.

She really didn't pay attention to these things in her previous life, after all, she had never been in love in her previous life.

But in this life, she discovered that many men who climbed the dragon and attached themselves to the phoenix, or women who married high families, had a bit of unsatisfactory life.

It is also because the concept of family status in ancient times is more important than in modern times, so she let Mr. Huayuan watch and arrange them separately. Don't make it to the end, just make everyone angry.

"You are busier than the emperor. After this year, Xilan City will be almost all yours, right?" Xi Lingyan walked over and handed her a piece of iced watermelon.

Gu Xiangsi opened her mouth and took a bite. With the binoculars in her hand, she saw an unusual scene. There seemed to be a commotion over there. The three painting boats collided. It seemed that something big was about to happen?

Seeing her put down the binoculars, Xiling Yan ran down, and he followed her downstairs.

"Hurry up and release the boat, hurry up!" Gu Xiangsi went down to the first floor of the painting boat, and ordered people to put the prepared boat into the water quickly. She had to go and have a look, otherwise something really happened, and she would have nothing to do when she turned around. Explained to the parents of these young ladies.

Fei Shu hurriedly ran out and asked Mo Yun and Gae Feng to put the boat into the water.

Gu Xiangsi ran out, followed by Xiling Yan, she jumped onto the boat first, and said anxiously to Mo Yun, "Go over there, hurry up!"

Xilingyan also jumped onto the boat, stood behind her, and watched her command Mo Yun to go forward and turn. He didn't know how her memory was so amazing.

If Gu Xiangsi wants to hear Xilingyan's heartfelt voice, she will definitely complain about him, who is as foolish as him?I can't even remember the curved road map.

Mo Yun and Lie Feng are one at the bow and the other at the stern. The two of them are rowing together, and the speed is really fast.

Soon, we arrived at this area of ​​water. This area of ​​water is quite open, and the lotus is also in full bloom, so many boats come here to enjoy the coolness and enjoy the flowers.

When Gu Xiangsi saw a girl fell into the water, another man jumped into the water in another boat.She gritted her teeth and ordered Mo Yun: "Go to the Xiling Tanyue Painting Boat."

"Yes!" Mo Yun responded, paddled his oars, and approached the three painting boats.

After approaching the three painting boats, Xiling Yan could see clearly that it was Qian Shaozhen who fell into the water, and Qiao Lingsu was the one who saved them.It's okay, they are an unmarried couple, and it's okay to have a little skin relationship.

After Gu Xiangsi approached a pink curtain painting boat in the small boat, she helped the painting boat up by herself.After going up, she gave Xiling Tanyue a resounding slap, don't think she didn't see it, it was because she made someone hit Qianshaozhen's boat that Qianshaozhen fell into the water.

"You..." Xiling Tanyue covered her slapped cheek with one hand, glared at Gu Xiangsi angrily, opened her mouth and called Si Qin, "Are you dead? Didn't you see me..."

"Call back if you have the ability, what's the point of yelling at a servant?" Gu Xiangsi interrupted Xiling Tanyue's bravado, and when Xiling Tanyue was about to fight back, she grabbed her hand. Wrist, the other hand slapped her again, gritted his teeth and sneered, "How dare you fight back when I tell you to fight back? Xiling Tanyue, let alone my identity as the princess of the town, just say that I am your sister-in-law. It is right to teach you a lesson, how dare you fight back against me without regard to seniority or inferiority? Good! This is the good upbringing that your famous actress mother gave you, right?"

"You...you..." Xiling trembled angrily, she had never been humiliated so much since she grew up.

When Si Qin looked at her in Xiling Tanyue, she frowned, and it was not easy to intervene in this matter.After all, what Princess Zhen said was reasonable. As a sister-in-law and elder, no one could tell her a lesson against a concubine cousin, Danyue in Xiling.

On the contrary, Xiling Tanyue wanted to fight back and hit a prince or concubine, she was really reckless.

When Gu Xiangsi couldn't break free from her hand in Xiling Tanyue, and finally scratched her arm with her sharp nails, she took the opportunity and threw her into the water.

Doesn't she like watching other people fall into the water?Then let her taste the mud under the Jiulong Lake.

"Miss!" Ruhua only shouted from the bow of the boat, and didn't dare to move, it's really... this town princess is too powerful, she is a little afraid of him...

Si Qin jumped down and rescued Xiling Tanyue out of the water.

Gu Xiangsi raised her hand and glanced at the three bloodstains on her arm, ignoring the cold gaze of the man behind her, she looked at another blue gauze boat, squinted her eyes, and suddenly yelled: "Xilingshe, Feng Yuan, Get out of here!"

Xilingshe and Feng Yuan really don't want to go there, but... this sister-in-law/cousin is so imposing, Brother Sixteen/Cousin is still here, if they don't go there, Brother Sixteen/Cousin will definitely be killed I kicked the lake to feed the fish.

"Do you want me to drown you in the water and become the Dragon King's son-in-law?" Gu Xiangsi gritted her teeth and glared at them angrily. If she didn't come over, she would let Lie Feng and Mo Yun drown them in the water.

Xilingshe and Feng Yuan were really scared. They both swallowed the saliva they secreted from the fright, and hurriedly asked the servants to help them. They carefully arrived at the bow of the painting boat at Gu Xiangsi Station. Sister-in-law/cousin slaps twice and forget it?

Gu Xiangsi really didn't hit them, but raised her hand to let them see the injury on her arm clearly, and asked them with a half-smile, "Do you know who hurt this?"

When Gu Xiangsi smiled, Xilingshe and Feng Yuan were so frightened that they subconsciously shouted in horror: "My sister/cousin was injured!"

When Gu Xiangsi saw their cowardice, she rolled her eyes at them, and asked with a smile on her lips, "Do you know what the crime is for ordinary people who have hurt a prince and concubine?"

Xilingshe and Feng Yuan really didn't know what the crime was, they turned their heads to look at each other, then turned their heads to look at the mighty and domineering sister-in-law/cousin opposite, shook their heads like fools, and replied in unison: "I don't know! "

"Idiot, you don't even know this!" Gu Xiangsi said fiercely to them again, seeing that they were about to hug each other in fright, she really couldn't bear to beat them up anymore.
