Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 142

Isn't that what a girl who is going to marry is like this?Can't come out to see this lotus festival.

However, it will be fine when you get married. Du Yu's mother is not the kind of strict mother-in-law, and she will definitely not control her daughter-in-law strictly.

Du Yu and Chu Fangyun talked about the lotus festival, "There are so many people, it's not just this pavilion, it's not easy to arrange that."

"Where is there only one pavilion? If you look over there, there are four or five pavilions over there, but they are farther away from our side. After all, this is a lotus of tens of acres. When the time comes, we will each be in the pavilion. Sit and eat to enjoy the lotus, or if you want to go down, let the boat lady come over and take us to the lotus pond to pick lotus and lotus seeds. Everyone on the Zhuangzi here can row a boat. We can go in and have a look later. , Enjoy the feeling of being in the lotus.”

Du Yu asked, "Would you like us to compose poems? I'm not good at that."

With such scenery, people who have learned calligraphy want to compose poetry, but she really can't do it.

Chu Fangyun said: "How do you know? Someone will send pens and paper to each pavilion in a while, but don't force it. If anyone is interested, write a few sentences or draw two strokes, and then let the servants give it to you." People in other pavilions passed it on, that’s what happened.”

Fortunately, everyone was not asked to write poems, otherwise it would really embarrass them.

Du Yu saw that his cousin and Hua'er were a little timid, so he talked about the ways of the world with them, and introduced Chu Fangyun grandly. Feeling uncomfortable, he said with a smile: "Why don't we get a boat and go rowing. It's no fun to sit here."

"Fangyun, you are still so out of touch, you haven't changed at all." A girl came in from the outside, and everyone in the pavilion called her Miss Xu. Looking at this, Du Yu also guessed who this identity was, for sure It was Xu Min, daughter of the county magistrate.

Seeing Du Yu and the others, Xu Min smiled and said, "You are members of Du Ju's family, right? I heard Fang Fei talk about you."

Now that the roll call has been done, it’s time to introduce each other. When Xu Min heard Hu Ling introduce herself, she smiled and said, "I know you. You are Hu Xiucai's younger sister, aren't you? At the beginning when Hu Xiucai was selected as a scholar, my father still told me My mother said that Hu Xiucai is a young talent."

Hu Ling said embarrassedly: "Thank you for the compliment, my elder brother said it was just a fluke."

Xu Min didn't say much, and said to them: "Didn't you just say you wanted to go swimming in the lake? Just now, I've asked someone to release a few boats. Let's go and have fun. It's fun when we get to the center of the lake. There are wild ducks, we can bring fishing nets, and we will be able to catch fish by then."

Xu Min was sincerely pleased with each other, and everyone was very interested, so they all left the pavilion and went to board the boat.

In the end, Du Yu and his eldest cousin separated, and they happened to be on the same boat with Xu Min. Xu Min smiled and said, "They are all my guests. I will definitely take care of them. Don't worry."

On Du Yu's side, there was Li Hua'er who was afraid to speak. Chu Fangyun said, "Don't worry, this is the lotus party that Xu Min made by himself. Nothing will happen to her. Let others talk about her, and we can play with peace of mind." Lake."

The boat lady rowed slowly towards the depths of the lotus. Du Yu saw that her cousin was in no danger on that boat. Li Hua'er was holding on to Du Yu's sleeve tightly, for fear that she would fall behind. Chu Fangyun laughed haha He said to Li Hua'er: "Sister Hua'er, why are you like a child, and you still can't do without people?"

Li Hua'er blushed even more, and Du Yu hurriedly said: "My cousin is a little shy, don't make fun of her." Then he said to Hua'er: "We are the only ones on this boat, what are you afraid of? It's the same as you are in the countryside. , Pick more lotus pods and eat them later, it’s not bad if it’s fresh.”

Sure enough, the lotus leaves are infinitely blue, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun.In the middle of the lotus, there is a feeling that the days of the gods are nothing more than this.

When the boat came to a stop, Du Yu and Chu Fangyun picked the lotus pods, even if they tried hard, they couldn't pick much, so the Xu family didn't feel bad.

Li Hua'er was also restrained from the beginning, but now she slowly let go, and specializes in picking big lotus pods.

After playing tired, they each picked a lotus leaf and placed it on top of their heads. Chu Fangyun glanced at the boat lady, and then whispered to Du Yu: "Have you noticed that Xu Min treated your cousin today?" Some enthusiasm?"

Why didn't you find out?She had already discovered that they were supposed to be on the same boat, but when Xu Min pulled her like that, the cousin went to her boat.

It is not difficult to see that it is not normal for a stranger to be so enthusiastic when they meet for the first time.

"Yeah, it's too enthusiastic, but everything will come to light, as long as she doesn't want to harm my cousin, it's fine."

The matter is already such a matter, what is Xu Min's purpose, I can only think slowly.But what is related to the cousin, apart from the cousin's own marriage, is the eldest cousin's marriage.

Cousin's marriage is very insignificant, but there are also some people who want to say kiss to cousin for the sake of big cousin.

As for the eldest cousin’s marriage, this possibility is even higher. After all, the eldest cousin is going to take the provincial examination this time. If he passes the exam, he will be the master of Juren. Worse.Although there are still young talents who won the Juren earlier, they are still out of reach.

By the way, just now Xu Min said something about a young talent, maybe he really wanted to hit his big cousin.

But it's only possible, and it's not impossible to play the big cousin's idea.

As for the relationship with uncle?It can't be that the county government is looking for an uncle to treat cattle and horses for them.

If others haven't acted yet, everything they say is empty talk.

Moreover, the adults have their own ideas about these marriages, and these children can only report the situation to the adults.

If everything is suitable, there is nothing inappropriate even if they are married.

It depends on what the eldest cousin and uncle think, but Du Yu doesn't want to have anything to do with the eldest cousin. After all, if Xu Min's family really likes the eldest cousin, then the family must be of a higher family. Such a family is not suitable for the eldest cousin, and the eldest cousin will not be happy by then.

As for the eldest cousin, if it is really suitable, the uncle and aunt also think it is feasible. He is a man, so he will not suffer no matter what.

Well, why worry so much, anyway, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain.Everything is possible.

By the time they got ashore, they had planted almost half a boatload of lotus plants, and Xu Min and the others also went ashore. The eldest cousin was still smiling, and it seemed that they were having a good time.

Since they came to admire the lotus, they must take care of the food, so they went to the flower hall where they ate. Xu's food was also good, and there was also lotus seed soup made with fresh lotus seeds.

Finally, when they were about to leave, the family here sent a basket of lotus pods.Let everyone take it back, it can be said that both the host and the guest are satisfied.

Du Yu put the lotus pod in the kitchen, and Mrs. Hu asked how the three cousins ​​were doing, and Mr. Hu listened with great enthusiasm.

Anyway, it's all kinds of envy, especially after hearing them go to the lotus pond by boat, I wish I could do it myself.

"In the future, let's also build a lotus pond. When you grow up, you can play with it." Mrs. Hu coaxed Hu Bing.

Hu Bing said: "The aunt must let me play every day."

Hu said that it must be like this, Hu Bing was happy and consummated.

However, Hu Ling then went to find the Hu family alone, and told her aunt about the special reception she received from the county magistrate's daughter today. Anyway, she is not a particularly dull person, and she is just meeting her for the first time, and she is not a well-known person. Well, why did Miss Xu treat her like that? Although she had a good time, she was always uneasy.

After hearing this, Mrs. Hu smiled at Hu Ling: "It's okay, it's normal, our little Ling is already cute."

I was very embarrassed to tell Hu Ling, and my face turned red.

"Okay, aunt, I'm not making fun of you, but what I said is true. This matter is actually not a big deal. I guess it's because your brother is going to take the provincial exam. What did they respect and love adults say? That's what these ladies are like. Stop guessing."

Although Hu Ling was comforted in this way, Hu called Du Yu over later and asked her to talk about today's situation, "Didn't I ask you to take good care of your cousin and the others? What happened in the end? What about that?" Miss, why is she treating your cousin like that, she must have some idea."

"Mom, if Miss Xu wants to be warm to my cousin, I can't keep a cold face. Don't let it go. It's okay. Let's just wait. The other party really has a purpose and will make the next move."

What's more, it's really what I guessed. If it's about my cousin, I believe that neither my uncle nor my aunt will agree. Of course, it doesn't rule out that the marriage mentioned is very reliable. In this way, even if it is mutually beneficial, it is also possible There is nothing wrong with that.

In addition, if the big cousin fell in love, then if the uncle and the others are willing, it is not a bad thing.

It's just that I don't know who the target is. If it's not good, uncle and the others are not fools, so they insist on agreeing.

So it's useless to be anxious now. You can't panic just because someone is enthusiastic about your cousin. This is because you have lost to yourself.

And Mrs. Hu had thought of a possibility early on. It wouldn't be that the county magistrate had taken a fancy to Xin'er and wanted Xin'er to be his son-in-law. Thinking about that Miss Xu's family, she was also a suitable age.It's still like that today, it must be because of Xin'er's idea.

And Mrs. Hu has already regarded her nephew as her son-in-law in her heart. Will Mrs. Hu be happy when such a person suddenly appears to rob Hu?
She is naturally unhappy, but her daughter still doesn't seem to be in a hurry. She can't say that our parents are already discussing your affairs, so please be more vigilant and don't let someone steal your marriage?

So Mrs. Hu couldn't speak, and was really depressed.

That's the magistrate of the county. If he offends him and trips up their family, what should we do?
But even if he is the magistrate of the county, the Hu family will not tolerate it. A good son-in-law should be firmly grasped. Besides, they are more intimate.

So when Du Youzhong came back, Mrs. Hu said to him: "Let's settle the marriage between Xin'er and Yu'er."
