The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 48 The First Meeting

"Wuhu! The lake is here!" Sheng Yuan was full of energy, bouncing around and following her sister all the way, still shouting vigorously.

Of course, I don't blame her for being excited, it's because the scenery here is so beautiful, as long as you walk into this place, you will see the surface of the Ten Mile Lake.

The lotus leaves on the surface of the lake form a field, and the lotus flowers of various colors are either in bud or in bloom. Against the backdrop of the sparkling lake, it is like a painting.

However, this painting is still dynamic, with tented boats of different styles swaying slowly on the lake, the boats pass by, the aftermath ripples, and the lotus leaves sway gently, revealing the traces of carps of various colors during the swing.

"Sister, does this count as a person swimming in a painting?" Sheng Yuan wiped the wet bangs that were pasted on her forehead, excitedly shook her sister's arm, and jumped up and down to be a person in the painting.

Sheng An looked at the boats by the lake embankment not far away, but he still remembered to take care of his sister. While holding the noisy little guy, he looked around for Xiaoyao and Zhiyu who should have been waiting here.

"Second Miss! Third Miss! We are here!" Xiaoyao ran over with a bamboo box on her back, pulling Zhiyu's arm.

"Great, let's go to the rest hall to freshen up this little guy first." Sheng An touched his sister's back, which felt wet, for fear that she might be blown by the wind on the lake.

I said before that the garden party was full of maids and nurses, so as soon as Sheng An said this, some court ladies came to lead the way.

The rest hall is just across the lake, and a whole row of corridors has been built as a resting place for girls and gentlemen to rest and change clothes.

Sheng Yuan had a big heart for playing, and he was only thinking about going to the lake to play in the water, wishing he could finish washing and changing clothes quickly, so he cooperated very well.

Whether it's my sister or Xiaoyao, if you ask her to wash her face, she will poke her neck and pass her little face over; if you ask her to change clothes, she will raise her little hands high;

So in less than a cup of tea, the little guy changed into the orange-red chest-length skirt that he had prepared earlier.

Sheng An actually wanted his younger sister to change into a light yellow body, so that when the boat was on the lake, it would be refreshing to look at.

It's a pity that her younger sister has her own aesthetics and insists on wearing bright and eye-catching clothes, so Sheng An has no choice but to follow her.

"Sister, why don't you change it?" Sheng Yuan finished torturing herself, and then wanted to toss others with bright eyes.No, she eagerly looked up and down at her sister, wishing she could comb her hair with her hands.

"I'm not you. I ran and drilled all over the place, sweating like I got it out of the water! What should I change into quickly?" Sheng An has a habit, as long as the clothes are not stained, he will not I am happy to change clothes outside.

Seeing that her sister was not cooperating, Sheng Yuan rolled her round eyes.

Thinking that I am more clean and obedient than my sister, I can't help grinning happily.

Wow!

Sure enough, she is the cutest baby!
The good baby Sheng Yuan admired herself for a while, then hurriedly dragged her sister to go boating.

"There are a lot of boats, so you have to go slowly, you don't have to wait!" Seeing that her sister's pace didn't seem active, Sheng Yuan hurriedly circled her sister, teaching her while walking, "Sister, play actively! To be a person and to do things, you must know how to plan!"

Sheng An rolled her eyes straight: "There are people coming and going here, you want me to run around like you? That's impossible! I can't lose my image in the academy!"

Seeing that her sister didn't cooperate, Sheng Yuan stamped her feet impatiently, and suddenly made up her mind, planning to take Xiaoyao to go first by herself: "I'll jump on the boat when the time comes, so I don't have to worry about running out of boats!"

She was learning while talking, jumping high and jumping down, looking round and cute.

It's just that in her sister's eyes, this move had the opposite effect.

"Don't even think about it!" Sheng An grabbed the girl's skirt, "You are like a small stone, and you still jump down! If you really jumped onto the boat, you and the boat should jump into the lake together Be honest! Otherwise, I won't take you to the lake!"

"Hmph!" After being threatened by her sister, Sheng Yuan calmed down angrily, holding her sister's finger and humming as she walked.

It wasn't until he walked onto the embankment of the lake and found that there was only one empty boat by the lake, that Sheng Yuan let go of his hand and said thankfully.

But before she got on the boat, the nanny in charge of the boat on the lake embankment came over and said that the boat could not be boarded: "Little girl, this is the auxiliary boat, which is in a group with the main boat, and it is reserved for the girls on the main boat." There are four seats for Mr. Lang’s maids and attendants, and there are four seats that cannot be filled, so we have to reserve a seat for our wet nurse to protect everyone’s safety.”

Saying this, the mammy was afraid that Sheng Yuan would not understand because she was too young, so she pointed to the mammies on the lake who were supporting the bamboo rafts and said, "Here, just like those mammies, they are here to protect you."

When Sheng Yuan heard the words, he only felt a roar, and looked at the lonely boat docked on the embankment in disbelief, and then looked at the magnificent scene of boats coming and going on the lake, he felt that the gap was huge, and he felt extremely wronged.

There were so many boats just now!
Seeing that the little guy was about to pout, Sheng An hurriedly squatted down to coax her: "Oh, just wait, what's the big deal? It would be embarrassing to cry because of this!
The girls of the Qin family will laugh when they see it!
People are going to say, hey yo!I thought that little Jiuniang of the Sheng family was so powerful, she was still a baby after all! "

Just as Sheng Yuan was about to purse her mouth and whine, when she heard her sister's words, the phrase "If you lose, you don't lose" immediately came to mind, and immediately suppressed the tears in her eyes.

She shrugged her little nose, pursed her lips, suppressed her crying and said, "I didn't cry! I just let the wind catch my eyes!"

Sheng An looked at the wobbly lotus leaves, and nodded with a smile: "Yes! The lake is very windy, so be careful! Here, have a piece of candy, it's mint tea."

With the candy in his mouth, Sheng Yuan felt much more relaxed.

Her emotions came and went quickly, and she quickly forgot all her sadness and sadness. She only stared at the lake with burning eyes, whispering in her mouth, wishing that a few boats would come to the shore as soon as possible.

Seeing his younger sister's eyes looking pitifully at the lake, and her little face full of hope, Sheng An immediately felt sorry for her, and wanted to hold her hand for a walk around the lake, it was better than letting the little guy Standing on tiptoe, stretching the neck and waiting here.

"Second Sister, Little Jiuer!" The joyful voice of the third lady Sheng Yun suddenly sounded.

Sheng An and Sheng Yuan looked back, only to see four sisters Sheng Yun walking over slowly.

"You just got off the boat?" Sheng An felt that it was really a coincidence that they missed the boat they were on in such a short time.

"It's been a while since I've been down. I'm not going to take a rest. I'm going to the half-waist flower pavilion later!" Sheng Yun pinched Sheng Yuan's little hand enthusiastically, shaking her and asked, "Xiao Jiuer , don’t the Shidong mountain forest and Taoyuan flower sea look good?”

Sheng Yuan gave a detailed description to this friendly cousin in a soft voice to save face.

Especially seeing the seven cousins ​​and eighth cousins ​​who were born in the fourth house, when they heard about the sea of ​​flowers in Taoyuan, there was a touch of longing on their faces. As a caring child, Sheng Yuan paused, and tried to describe the strange flowers there in more detail.

As for the sixth cousin Sheng Han who was standing there with a smirk on her face, Sheng Yuan curled her lips inwardly, so she could just treat her as a piggyback.

"Xiao Jiu'er is so smart!" Sheng Yun wanted to tease this little guy, but she was almost drunk just looking at the little guy's chubby mouth talking about milk.But the more she listened to it, the more amazed she became. How could this three-year-old child describe the beauty so clearly?
Sheng Han couldn't see how her sister cared about Shengyuan so much, so she wanted to remind her to go to the half-waist flower pavilion, and later to enjoy the Qushui Liushang.

But before she could open her mouth, a court lady came quickly and said to Sheng An Shengyuan: "Mr. An family invites you to take a boat tour. I wonder what the two girls think?"

Mr. Anjia Xiaolang?
Sheng Yuan blinked her eyes, quickly flipped through her memory, and found that she couldn't remember this person.

Hastily turned around to look over.

I saw a small round ball in bright red brocade standing beside the boat by the lake, smiling and waving to them.

This little gentleman doesn't look much older than her.

He was wearing a jade crown and a necklace with a golden lock the size of an adult's fist, which looked very festive.

Seeing that Sheng Yuan liked it, she couldn't help waving her hand in response, and whispered to her sister: "This child is round and round, like a doll in a painting, so cute!"
