The system of the forum is just in a chaos and it has been so for quite some time. I do not know what the operators are doing!
Contain is a better choice for me to take and I am fond of your translation of the first line. Thank you as ever.

My anti-virus programme keeps warning me 'threat detected"

You made me burst into laughter. I enjoy your great sense of humor.

荷浮碧水半湖夏 ----- Lotus leaves covering half of verdant lake picture the summer so brilliant
蝶扇茄花三里香 ------Butterflies fanning among the eggplant flowers spread a scent so fragrant.

The floating lotus leaves cover half a verdant lake in summer,
Butterflies fan the scent of eggplant flowers to reach three li yonder.

My old friend appears in new clothes to greet me for the previous favor
The dinner is held in the house newly built with the green and aged flavor

老友靓衫说旧意
鲜蔬村酿宴新房

My old buddie in fine clothes keeps talking about our old good days,
We dine on fresh vegs and the home-brewed in his new house, hurrays!

I am leaving at sunset to find a lingering look of on face of the yellow dog
For drinking as whale his master is kept home in his sound sleep like a log

大黄落日犹相送，
地主依然醉梦长。

At sunset his yellow dog feels so reluctant to let me go,
For his intoxicated master still sleeps and dreams also.

Ok, done, please give me your feedback, buddie.

By the way, are you still there?

一路和风笑意藏

All along on the road in the breeze with a smiling heart to detain.

七律重访江北山庄

青衫来客

一路和风笑意藏,
轻车又访小山庄。

All along on the road in the breeze with a smiling heart to detain,
I am driving briskly to visit the little mountain village once again.

荷浮碧水半湖夏，
蝶扇茄花三里香。

The floating lotus leaves cover half a verdant lake in summer,
Butterflies fan the scent of eggplant flowers to reach three li yonder.

老友靓衫说旧意，
鲜蔬村酿宴新房。
