Chapter 102 Chapter 102: Not knowing how to drink water
Lin Shuran glanced at Lei Yan with a smile, and Xu Mingchen tensed up a little. She coughed deliberately and said: "You are a good friend of Brother Chen. If you want to go, you can naturally go with me. From now on, I will treat you as a friend."
It’s your own home, so don’t be too polite!”
Upon hearing what Lin Shuran said, both Lei Yan and Xu Mingchen breathed a sigh of relief. Then they looked at each other and smiled. Lei Yan continued to get on his horse. He was not used to riding in a carriage.
The Xu family's carriage began to travel in the direction of Lin Shuran's farm. However, when the carriage reached the streets in the city, it happened to meet Zhao Pei, the young prince of the Qing Dynasty who was leaving the palace. When he saw that it was the Xu family's carriage, he took the initiative to come up and say hello.
"Aunt Xu, where are you going?" Zhao Pei and Lin Shuran asked after greeting them.
Lin Shuran told him that she was taking her family to a farm in the countryside to escape the summer heat.
Zhao Pei nodded, then looked at Lei Yan with confusion and asked, "Why are you following?"
Lei Yan smiled proudly and said to him: "Of course I will go to escape the summer heat. Brother Chen said that his farm is very fun, and you can also go hunting in the mountains!"
As soon as he heard that he could go hunting, the young prince Zhao Pei was immediately excited. When he learned that Lin Shuran's dowry farm was not far away, and saw that the children of the Xu family were following him, he begged Lin Shuran: "Aunt Xu, I also want to come with you.
Go, okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay, but, young prince, do you want to inform the palace?" It's okay to have one more person go to the farm, but Zhao Pei's status is special, so Lin Shuran thinks it's better to inform the palace.
"I'll just have someone go back and tell my mother!" The young prince Zhao Pei was very happy. Before Lin Shuran could say anything else, he jumped onto the carriage where Xu Mingchen and the others were sitting, leaving Lin Shuran no chance to refuse.
Dazhu and Erzhu were all looking at the two big barrels eagerly. They told Xu Mingchen, Lei Yan, Zhao Pei and the others that when Lin Shuran lived in the farm before, people would often prepare several large wooden barrels and put them in the farm every summer.
Outside the door, there are various kinds of herbal teas made by her in wooden barrels, including those with the flavor of flowers, fruits, and mung beans. They are cool, sweet, and delicious.
"It's so easy to drink water. It's much easier than copying books!" Xu Minghao was happily tumbling in the river, and the splashing water hit his own face. He wiped his hand and smiled more freely, "Washing water
so fun!"
Lin Shuran could only smile helplessly. After all, they were all a group of teenagers of about the same age. They liked to play together. She couldn't bear to let them down. She just needed more people to protect them. After all, the mountains were also very dangerous. Thinking of the last time
Xu Mingye almost died from a tiger's jaws, and she was still frightened, especially since her fifth uncle was not in the farm now and could not find a more suitable person to protect them.
The sun was scorching today and the heat was unbearable. After arriving at the farm, Xu Mingchen, Lei Yan and Zhao Pei felt much cooler, but they still felt hot inside.
From time to time, the sound of teenagers laughing and playing could be heard by the river. Lin Shuran heard it in the village. She didn't say anything, but asked Zhang Tang to send a servant with good water skills to guard them in case anything happened.
If any child is in danger of drowning, it is best to rescue them in time.
Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan were even more excited. They didn't know how to swim, but the attendants around them were like Dazhu and Erzhu. They had lived here since they were young, so they knew how to swim, and their skills were pretty good, one-on-one.
Children are very interested in teaching and learn quickly. After a while, they learn with style.
Lin Shuran had already brought several children of the Xu family into the farm, saying that he was going to prepare some herbal tea and fresh fruits for them to relieve the heat, but Lei Yan looked at a nearby river and raised his eyebrows, and then asked the others: "Do you know how?
Can you drink water?"
The servants in Zhuangzi carried two large wooden buckets to the river where the children were drinking water, and then told them that this was a bucket of summer-relieving herbal tea and a bucket of cleaned fresh fruit that Lin Shuran had specially prepared for them.
Unexpectedly, most of Xu Mingchen and Zhao Pei shook their heads. Lei Yan was also surprised, but thinking that they might not have the opportunity to learn at home, he encouraged them: "It doesn't matter if you don't, you can go and learn now, I
Look at the clear and shallow river over there, let’s all go take a cold bath and play!”
"Oh, Brother Chen, you just think too much, hurry up and leave!" With that, Lei Yan took Xu Mingchen's arm and walked towards the river.
So as soon as the carriage stopped at the farm, the first thing Lin Shuran warned these children was not to allow them to go into the mountains. Xu Mingchen and the others also knew what Lin Shuran was worried about, so they made a promise not to go into the mountains.
"Okay, I feel so hot here, let's go, let's go!" The young prince Zhao Pei felt itchy in his heart at Lei Yan's suggestion. He must abide by the rules in the palace. He can't do anything casually, like playing with water. "
His mother would definitely not allow him to do anything "dangerous". She even wouldn't let him go to the pond when he was a child.
Xu Mingchen was a little hesitant. He was worried that Lin Shuran would not like them doing these seemingly dangerous things, but Xu Mingye and his Alang had already gotten up and walked towards the river. At the same time, he loudly said to Xu Mingchen behind him: "Brother, you forgot
I understand what Uncle Wu said before. He said that he would teach us how to use Fu Shui in the summer, and he also said that this was what my mother had told me."
"Young Master, the young lady won't be angry. Erzhu Fushui and I are both very good, let's teach you!" Although Dazhu and Xu Mingchen were masters and servants in name, they got along like friends, so they came to the meeting enthusiastically.
Said before.
After that, she asked the farmhouse chef to make a lot of herbal tea that she often drank in the past to give to Xu Mingchen, Lei Yan and the others, as well as seasonal fruits from the mountains. Wash them in the cold well water and eat them.
It is sweet and sour, quenches thirst and relieves heat.
"Brother Qi, look, I can swim in the water, haha, I've learned it too!" Xu Mingxuan also laughed and swam over from the other direction. The depth of the river was only no deeper than an adult's knees. Xu Mingxuan swam to Xu Minghao
The water only reached his thighs when he stood next to him, so he quickly overcame his fear of water.
Looking at the two large wooden barrels in front of him, Lei Yan heard what Dazhu and the others said again, and he couldn't help but want to taste the herbal tea for himself. Seeing that Xu Mingchen and the others did not move, he hurriedly said: "What are you waiting for?
, why don’t you try it quickly!”
"Yes, yes, hurry up and try it!" Zhao Pei also smacked his lips. He was tired from playing and a little thirsty.
"The herbal tea made by my mother, we drink it every day in the house, there is nothing unusual about it!" Xu Minghao, the seventh child, said deliberately, but the pride and pride in his eyes were undisguised.
They had already drank various herbal teas made by Lin Shuran when they were in the house before, but did the herbal teas in the tea bowl taste different from the herbal teas in the vat?
