This was Xue Jun's first time participating in such an activity. In the past, she would just watch from the shore and enjoy the sight. Now, she is in much better health and is almost like a normal person. As long as her emotions don't fluctuate too much, there will be no problem.
She rolled up the gauze hanging from the brim of her veil to prevent it from blocking her view, or dipped it into the water when she leaned over to pick water chestnuts.
In a small boat not far away, Xue Huan and Pei Ji were sitting, but they were on the opposite side of Xue Yao's side. Xue Huan was rowing the boat, and Pei Ji was picking water chestnuts.
The boat is very small, with only a small space in the middle for people to sit, but the space is limited, and two people sitting opposite each other in it almost take up the entire space.
Their knees touched each other.
Xue Huan held the oar in her hand and slowly rowed the boat into a large area of water chestnuts. Pei Ji had long arms, so he reached out and grabbed a handful, picked the water chestnuts hidden under the leaves and threw them into the bamboo basket, then put the water plants back.
It was evening now, and the setting sun was reflected on the lake, like a large piece of molten gold.
Some children took the opportunity to start a water fight, splashing water on each other, and their laughter echoed on the lake.
Xue Huan peeled a water chestnut and took a bite of the tender flesh. The sweet juice burst out between her lips and teeth.
Pei Ji stuffed a water chestnut into her hand and said, "Hanhan, I want to eat some too."
She peeled one and fed it to him.
"Splash!" A dark-skinned child threw a handful of water at Xue Jun, "Sickly boy."
Xue Yao immediately became angry and fought back fiercely, using the oar to push the child's boat away.
The child lost his balance and fell off the boat.
"Xue Yao pushed Shuisheng into the water!"
Xue Yao panicked and immediately jumped in to rescue the person, but when he swam to the place where Shuisheng fell into the water, he couldn't find anyone.
Xue Jun lay on the side of the boat, anxiously looking for Shuisheng.
Xue Huan noticed the situation here and wondered if Shuisheng had gotten into trouble. She was about to jump in too, but Shuisheng popped up from the water on his own.
And he appeared behind Xue Jun.
It turned out that he deliberately hid in the water and swam quietly to Xue Jun's side, and even shouted loudly to scare her.
Xue Jun was so scared that his face turned pale, and he covered his chest and had difficulty breathing.
She quickly took out the medicine she had brought with her, poured a pill into her palm, and was about to swallow it when Shuisheng grabbed the side of the boat and shook it hard, laughing as he did so.
Xue Jun's body was shaken to the side and he managed to grab the side of the boat and avoid falling into the water. However, the medicine in his hand and the bottle fell into the water.
Without the medicine, she became more and more anxious, but Shuisheng continued to play pranks on her and even poured water on her.
"Liu Shuisheng! Get out of here!" Xue Yao was furious when he saw this scene and swam back as fast as he could.
Xue Huan was so angry that she quickly paddled towards Xue Jun, but Liu Shuisheng deliberately took Xue Jun's boat and swam away.
The others clapped and cheered as if they were enjoying a good show.
Xue Jun on the boat was almost out of breath.
There is a well-developed water system near Shanghe Village. In the summer, the children in the village go swimming and bathing in the water. They are used to playing in the water, so most of them can swim and are quite good at it. Liu Shuisheng is one of the best.
But at this time, his good swimming ability made people hate him so much.
Xue Huan was so anxious that she jumped into the water and swam over quickly, "Liu Shuisheng! Stop! If anything happens to Jun'er, I will tear your head off!"
Liu Shuisheng was frightened by her. He didn't expect her to be so fierce. Seeing that she was about to catch up with him, he quickly let go of the boat and dived into the water and disappeared.
Although Xue Huan wanted to beat up this naughty kid, Xue Jun was obviously more important now, so she couldn't bother to chase him for the time being.
She took out some spare pills from the space and fed them to Xue Jun, then took out a small gourd and fed her diluted spiritual spring water.
"Jun'er, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
Xue Yao also swam over at this time and looked at Xue Jun nervously.
Xue Jun took the medicine and drank the spiritual spring water, and finally recovered. Seeing his sister and brother gathered around him, he felt relieved, "I'm fine, sister."
Xue Huan and Xue Yao both breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I felt guilty. If I had known, I wouldn't have brought my sister out. This naughty kid really has no sense of propriety! He almost killed her!
Xue Yao slapped the water in anger, "Jun'er, don't worry, I promise to help you vent your anger! I'm going to beat Liu Shuisheng to a pulp!"
Xue Huan didn't say anything because she also agreed.
Naughty kids need to be severely punished!
At this time, Pei Ji rowed over with difficulty.
Just now, in his haste, he rowed the boat around and around, and almost made himself dizzy.
After this incident, Xue Huan and the others no longer had the heart to pick water chestnuts and went home.
As for this naughty kid Liu Shuisheng, it’s not too late to deal with him later.
However, Xue Huan didn't expect that before she could deal with the naughty kid to vent her anger for her sister, Liu Shuisheng drowned!
After dinner, the family was enjoying the cool air in the yard when the gate was suddenly slammed loudly and a burst of shouting and crying was heard outside.
Dahei, who was originally lying down, suddenly stood up and stared outside vigilantly.
"Yang Hui Niang, open the door for me!"
The menacing shouting made it clear that the person was up to no good.
Xue Huan said to her mother, "Mother, take Jun'er back to the house first."
Xue's mother said nothing and took Xue Jun into the room.
My daughter just had an attack, and I couldn't let her get scared again.
Xue Huan then went to open the door, but as soon as she opened it, before she could see who was outside, the person outside pushed her aside and rushed in.
Xue Huan was caught off guard and staggered. If Pei Ji had not reached out to support her in time, she might have fallen to the ground.
"Where's your mother! Let her come out!" Liu Guixi, Liu Shuisheng's father, yelled at Xue Yao.
Behind him was a huge family, Shuisheng's mother, Shuisheng's grandparents, uncles, aunts, and several of his cousins. Two of them were carrying a door panel, on which lay a person, who was Shuisheng.
Xue Huan took a look and her heart skipped a beat. Shui Sheng was actually dead? It looked like he had drowned!
Although she hated this naughty kid very much, she didn't want him to die.
She walked over and said, "My mother has gone to bed. Tell me if you have anything to say."
"Tell you? I was just looking for you, you little bitch, you killed my son!" Liu Guixi said, raising his hand and slapping Xue Huan.
But before he could even get close to Xue Huan, Pei Ji grabbed his wrist and said, "Don't bully Huan Huan."
Liu Guixi tried to pull his hand back, but Pei Ji held it even tighter. It seemed as if his bones were being crushed, and he couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
Shuishengnai rushed over and scratched Pei Ji's face, "You killed my Shuisheng! I want you to pay with your lives!"
Pei Ji had no choice but to withdraw his hand to protect him.
Xue Huan wanted to pull the old woman away, but Shuisheng's second aunt grabbed her hair and almost pulled her scalp off.
