The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 118 Chu Man Falls into the Water (2)
As the sun gradually rose, Chu Yuan came to invite someone, "Grandma, the boat has been packed, shall we go there now?"

The man has sword-like eyebrows and star-eyed eyes, is tall and tall, dressed in a black outfit, calm and introverted.

The old lady asked curiously as she got up, "Why did you change into such a body?"

The corner of Chu Yuan's mouth twitched, "Second brother got someone to prepare it. We wear black, second uncle wears white, third uncle and the others wear red, so it's easy to distinguish."

The old lady looked at the third lady in surprise.

The third lady laughed and said: "I only found out now, seeing how many of them are there, it seems like that."

"That's what makes it interesting," the old lady said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go and have a look."

Ah Xun stared at the figure of Chu Yuan in front of him with big eyes, raised his head and said to his sister, "I also want to wear white clothes."

He wants to wear the same clothes as his father.

Just as Hanzhu was about to coax him, Chu Yuan turned around and said, "The fourth brother also has one. Your second brother prepared it for you and put it on the boat."

Hearing that she had her own clothes, Ah Xun was overjoyed, she didn't feel scared seeing this cold elder brother, and smiled happily.

Such a big child is the most attractive, Chu Yuan looked at his cousin twice more, and when he turned his head, his gaze accidentally glanced over Hanzhu, and saw the little girl looking down at her younger brother, with a gentle smile on her face, gentle and charming.

Sensing his gaze, Hanzhu raised her head in doubt, Chu Yuan instinctively wanted to avoid it, but felt that it was nothing for the brother and sister to see each other, and it would be strange if they avoided it, so they met their cousin generously.

For Hanzhu, the two cousins, Chu Yuan and Chu Huai, whom she rarely interacted with were similar to strangers, with their eyes facing each other, Hanzhu was quite awkward, so she immediately turned her eyes away.

Chu Yuan frowned. Just now he felt that his cousin was behaving strangely, but suddenly he thought that his cousin had forgotten the past. It is understandable for him to have such a reaction to strangers. Except for Ah Xun, who is she being rude to at home?It's only close to my sister.

Looking back, he didn't think about it any more.

The group soon reached the lake.

The big family celebrates the festival, so they are more relaxed about their servants. Today there is a lot of excitement, and the servants and maids from all the courtyards have rushed to the lake, standing in groups of three or four under the shade of willows on the bank, whispering.

Hanzhu looked over and saw a double-decker painting boat parked by the lake, and not far away were three dragon boats leaning side by side, each with six oarsmen wearing three-color clothes. One stood beating the drum, and the first two seats were vacant, leaving the masters to sit.

In front of the painting boat, Chu Qing stood in the lead, dressed in white clothes better than snow, with black hair tied on top of his head with a jade crown, as graceful as a fairy.

The old lady squinted her eyes slightly and boasted: "Look at Master Hou's demeanor. He has been compared to the three young men. No wonder he is still the most beautiful man in the capital. No one has been able to squeeze him down so far."

The eldest lady smiled and said nothing, and the third lady gave Chu Qing an extra look.

"Daddy," Ah Xun shouted excitedly seeing his father so heroic, "Daddy, I want to wear the same clothes as you!"

Chu Qing laughed and walked over, picked up his son and said, "Okay, let's wear the same clothes. In a few years, when Ah Xun grows up, the three of us will compete with your uncle, uncle, and uncle."

Ah Xun nodded happily.

After sending the female relatives to the boat, the men went to the dragon boat.

The painting boat took the female relatives slowly towards the other side of the lake, and the breeze was blowing slowly from all sides, which was very pleasant.

Chu Rong stood on the bow of the boat on the second floor leaning on the railing to enjoy the scenery, Hanzhu and Chu Qiang stayed inside talking with the elders, Ah Xun had changed into white clothes now, and bowed his head to play freshly.Chu Man remained silent as before, tilting her head to look at the dragon boat.

When the boat reached the other side, there was the sound of drums beating behind.

The dragon boat race is about to start.

The old lady was supported by the eldest wife and the third wife to the bow of the boat, and Chu Qiang and Chu Rong stood beside their respective mothers.The bow of the boat was wide enough, and there was still a lot of room there, so Hanzhu took Ah Xun and stood on the left side of the mother and daughter of the third wife, and ordered Sixi to stay on the other side of Ah Xun, and the master and servant looked at the little guy together.

In fact, the boat fence is only slightly lower than Hanzhu's waist, and adults have to be very careless to fall off. Ah Xun is short, so there is no need to worry.

Chu Man was a step behind, although she didn't want to be with Hanzhu, in this situation, she could only move over and stand next to Sixi.

The sound of the drum just now was just to remind them to pay attention, followed by three consecutive drums, and the next moment, the drum on the bank stopped, and the noise on the dragon boat coincidentally rang, and the three dragon boats were like swimmers who had just woken up from a deep sleep. Dragons, scrambling to move forward.

Unexpectedly, it was the third house that took the lead!

Chu Qing knew something strange, but this was not the time to pursue it. He didn't want to lose face in front of his children. He told everyone to go all out, and asked his nephew loudly, "Is there any trap on your dragon boat? If there is, you can get rid of it immediately." , or I will find out later, you don’t even want to go ashore today!”

Chu Huai laughed, and turned back to him, "Second Uncle's words are wrong. We only talk about betting on winning or losing, but we didn't say that opportunism is not allowed. If Second Uncle doesn't want to compete, or can't afford to lose, then I will give up the paddle now , take the initiative to admit defeat."

Chu Qing's kung fu is superb, but his verbal kung fu is not as good as his nephew, so he gave him a hard look and devoted himself to rowing.

The third room cheated one step ahead, and the big room and the second room went hand in hand.

On the painting boat, Han Zhu watched intently, and when she was a little nervous that Chu Qing and his son finally surpassed the big room, there was a sudden exclamation from the side, and the corner of the peach-colored clothes flashed in the corner of the eye, and someone fell straight into the lake.

It's Chu Man!
There was a loud splash, which startled everyone.

Chu Qing stood up abruptly, and when someone on the boat yelled for Miss Si, she immediately dropped the oar and jumped into the water to save her daughter.

On the embankment over there, Aunt Xia, who also came to watch the dragon boat race, saw her daughter fall into the water, her legs were weak, and she passed out immediately.
