Luoyun City is a city that relies on the Daosha River outside the city. Although it is located on Dongling Road, the rivers and lakes in Luoyun City are quite small.

Among them, the environment is the best and the reputation is the Shouhu Lake in the east of the city.

The name of Shouhu is very distinctive. It was derived from the great scholars of the previous dynasty. It means delicate and handsomeness. Although Shouhu is called Shouhu, it covers an area of ​​more than 300 acres. Moreover, the large area where Shouhu is located has long been bought by the Xie family. Apart from weeping willows and plants, there is no building around Shouhu. Among the Xie family, only the most core figures of the head-level family are qualified to come here to entertain guests.

Shouhu Lake attracts the water of Daosha River. The lake water is clear and quiet, like a huge blue mirror. The fish raised in it are carefully selected. Not only koi, but also all kinds of strange fish. No angler dares to come to Shouhu Lake to find the bad luck of the Xie family, so the fish here are not afraid of people at all. They boat on Shouhu Lake and sprinkle a handful of baits, and you can see countless fish rolling on the surface of the lake. The scene is very spectacular.

However, the rainstorms in Luoyun City are constantly continuing, and the lake water in the Shouhu Lake has risen by four feet. Because the lake water has become much turbid. Perhaps because it is raining and the air in the lake has decreased, the delicate fish have died in large numbers these days. Xie Ling, the head of the Xie family, loves this Shouhu Lake very much, so the servants naturally dare not neglect. Every day, day and night, there are more than 20 servants rowing boats to rescue this Shouhu Lake, regardless of wind or rain.

It was not until the time for Shenpai to be the last, but due to the continuous rainstorm, it was already dark.

The rainstorm has decreased a little, but it has not stopped completely.

A fishing boat from the Xie family slowly roams the lake. The fishing boat is not big and has an extremely gorgeous and atmospheric decoration. There are even some green ivy hanging on the walls outside the fishing boat. I don’t know how the Xie family operates, so it can make ivy grow so luxuriantly on the walls of the boat without seeing the soil.

The one who was carrying the boat was not the shipkeeper, but an extremely beautiful boatwoman.

The boat girl was wearing a crimson coat today, and her slender and elegant figure was undoubtedly exposed. Although the boat girl was graceful, her boat was very stern. Under her control, the fishing boat sailed smoothly on the lake.

On the table in the cabin were placed two steaming cups of Qingming. The owner of the two cups of Qingming was also an acquaintance. One was Xie Xuan, the eldest son of the Xie family, who was dressed in coarse linen, and the other was Ye Yang'an, the second wife of the Ye family.

Ye Yangan was extremely flattering, bent down and bowed his back, and said sincerely: "Mr. Xie, please rest assured. My father is a general person. I also did his job well yesterday. My Ye family decided to pay 7,000 stones of grain, of which my father had 3,000 stones, and I paid 2,000 stones, and the three houses had 1,000 stones each. I have been preparing these two days. When is it necessary? Xie, you say, "Mr. Xie, the food from my Ye family is the first to send it."

"Mr. Ye is kind-hearted and takes great care of his neighbors over the years. In the past, what small disasters did we have in Luoyun City have happened? It was Mr. Ye who took the initiative to call on the gentry in the city to contribute money and work. I have never been worried about Mr. Ye doing things." Xie Xuan knelt on the precious cushion, with a somewhat melancholy expression. "But this heavy rain is not a small matter. I'm afraid that we have never encountered such a big one in a hundred years. Our Luoyun City is limited in strength. Because of the heavy rain, the throughput of goods has been reduced by one third. Many poor people who are walking on the road are not easy now. And now... many families in the city are short-sighted and keep their shortcomings. They are not as kind-hearted as Mr. Ye. Doctors are kind-hearted. Each family pays 500 stones, which is like killing their lives. It's really a comparison of people, which is so angry."

"I've heard of this... I've heard of it a little bit." Ye Yangan pondered the sentence and led his words in the direction he had originally designed. "It seems that the Hua family in the east of the city did not donate a single grain of food, but also said something inappropriate at the banquet."

"It's not just an inappropriate, it's simply a big talk!" Ye Yang'an looked a little excited, and said dissatisfiedly, "This Hua family has never paid attention to this kind of donation of food and money by taking advantage of the county magistrate's favor. This time he even said that the people don't care about their lives and deaths. Doctors are kind, and doctors are kind. Yang'an, tell me, your Ye family and the Hua family are both engaged in medicinal materials business, why is the gap so big!"

"Where can you finish your eggs in the nest?" Ye Yang sighed as if he was pretending, his heart full of joy.

"Okay, let's not say these bad things anymore. When I talk about the Hua family, I get angry. I guess the dinner is almost done. Yang'an, you can go back after dinner with me. I happened to have an appointment with Governor Peng from the government office to discuss things. Although Governor Peng doesn't care about medicinal materials, anyone who does medicinal materials business will inevitably get involved in the lawsuit. Meeting with Governor Peng for dinner will be good for you." Xie Xuan glanced at the sky on the lake and ordered with a smile.

Ye Yangan was overjoyed and immediately bowed and replied, "Young Master Xie has given me some instructions. Yangan should obey it, so Yangan will disturb you today."

Xie Xuan shook his head and smiled, "You are not bothering me, it is obviously me who bothering you. Today you actually asked your little lady to take a boat. It was really unexpected for Xie to think of it."

The person who played the boat girl at this time was not someone else, but the concubine that Gu Changfeng saw before and Ye Yangan, whom he had seen under the peach tree of the Ye family.

Ye Yangan shook his head seriously and responded in a low voice: "Xiao Su grew up on a fishing boat when she was a child. She was familiar with the matter of raising a boat. After receiving the invitation from Mr. Xie last night, Xiao Su volunteered to come over to row the boat for Mr. Xie. I couldn't stop him. I didn't sleep well last night, so I was excited."

When she heard about herself, Su Xiaosu lowered her head and smiled shyly. She subconsciously pulled her sleeves to cover the bruises on her arms that were accidentally exposed when she was rowing.

Under Su Xiaosu's helm, the fishing boat leaned against the pavilion in the middle of the lake. There had been maids and maids here cleaning it, lit incense, and putting on the dishes and chopsticks.

Xie Xuan led Ye Yangan to the center of the lake center pavilion and sat in the main and second place. Although there were only three people to eat tonight, the dishes on the stone table were four cold and four hot and two bowls of soup. Although there were many dishes, the raw materials were not very precious, but some home-cooked dishes, but the method was extremely exquisite.

Shortly after the two sat down, Governor Peng personally drove a small boat onto the boat and took off his straw raincoat. Only after Ye Yangan saw clearly was that Governor Peng had a huge back and a bear waist, a very tall figure, a national face, and a red complexion. At a glance, he knew that he was Lao Qiuba from the military camp.

After seeing Xie Xuan, Governor Peng immediately bowed to greet him enthusiastically, his posture was very low, and he looked like he was following the leader of Mr. Xie.

Under Xie Xuan's instructions, Governor Peng sat down, and this unique dinner in the Huxin Pavilion officially opened.
