The fat steward paused for a moment, and was about to refuse. Dong Rong hurriedly asked, "This steward, the little lady is good at cooking, and she can also sew, so she will definitely not waste water in vain." ”

The fat steward thought about the cook who had begun to faint and die on the boat this morning, and hesitated for a moment before asking in a loud voice, "Brother, how much does this woman ask?" ”

Dong Rong originally lowered her eyebrows and pretended to be an ordinary fisherwoman, but when she suddenly heard this, her heart instantly rose high, and she subconsciously looked at the old fisherman, and a cold light suddenly surged in her eyes.

The old fisherman didn't have bad intentions, and when he saw Dong Rong like this, he hurriedly responded, "This nobleman, my daughter-in-law here is usually quite filial, and I don't want to sell her as a slave." As long as the nobleman accepts her on the boat, and she lives elsewhere in the future, she may be able to find a good family to live. ”

The fat steward was a little impressed when he heard this, and nodded again and again and said, "My brother is a kind-hearted person, so let her come up, I will put on the manpower that is just short of the food." ”

The old fisherman was overjoyed, and after thanking him, he whispered to Dong Rong, "Girl, hurry up and get on the boat, the farther you go, the better." Don't worry, if someone asks me in the future, I won't talk about today's events. ”

"Uncle," Dong Rong was extremely grateful in her heart, and she was slightly suspicious of her talent, very guilty. She had the heart to thank the old fisherman, but she had no other long things on her, so she had to kneel on the board of the boat and kowtow three times, and whispered, "It will definitely repay the old man for his food." ”

The fat steward didn't want to delay for too long, Gao Sheng urged, and Dong Rong climbed into the big basket hanging down from the side of the ship and was dragged onto the deck.

The old fisherman waved his hand from afar, and soon the small fishing boat left Dong Rong's sight.

The fat butler glanced at Dong Rong a few times, and said lightly, "Looking at you like this, it doesn't look like a seasick person." ”

Dong Rong hurriedly saluted respectfully, and responded with a smile, "The steward said that he laughed, the fisherman woman eats by the sea, how can there be seasickness." However, the little woman is better at cooking than sailing, and if the steward does not dislike it, let the little woman cook for lunch, right? ”

The fat steward was very satisfied with her being so sensible, and said with a smile, "Okay, you can call me Steward Liu in the future." The cook that our third master brought from home is a useless man, and he is still lying half-dead in the cabin at this moment. At noon, you can prepare food for the third master, if the third master is satisfied, you will naturally be indispensable. ”

"Steward Xie Liu mentioned, and the little woman went to ponder the dishes."

Dong Rong retreated to the stove room as she spoke, although there was no cook in the stove room, but there were two handymen, both of whom were women about forty years old, and the men in the family were also working as shipwrights on this ship.

After a busy lunch, the three of them became familiar with each other. Soon after the food was brought into the third grandfather's room, Steward Liu not only brought back two taels of silver, but also had a message that Dong Rong would take care of the third master's food in the future.

Dong Rong is not a shallow-eyed woman, so she immediately divided half of the silver money to the two handymen, and they thanked them again and again, and they naturally became closer to Dong Rong.

When the cook heard that his place had been robbed and hurried over, the daylilies were cold. Although he didn't have a good face for Dong Rong blowing his beard and glaring at him, he couldn't change the facts.

Dong Rong sat on the side of the boat, holding the porridge bowl and slowly eating her own lunch, looking at the blue sea and sky at the stern of the boat, and couldn't help but burst into tears. Now that she can't go back to her home, she can't take revenge, she can only stay away from her hometown, avoid the edge for the time being, and when she can come back, she must let all the enemies be broken into pieces!

In the cabin on the second floor of the big ship, a middle-aged man in a royal blue shirt was waving a fan to enjoy the sea view, and he wanted to sigh boredly when he remembered that he would have to face the sea and sky like this for months to come. However, the occasional woman who swept over the side of the boat while wiping her tears and drinking porridge became interested again, and after watching carefully for a long time, he couldn't help but laugh in a low voice, "This day at sea may not be so boring." ”

Not to mention that Dong Rong was enjoying the scenery and eating, she didn't know that she had become a unique scenery in the eyes of others. Just say that the hinterland of Daqi is also the richest outside Binzhou City, which is the richest in Daqi, and this day is extraordinarily lively.

In the world of reading in Daqi, there was a beautiful talk of "fireworks in Binzhou in October" many years ago, and now this season is the time when the autumn breeze is cold for the northern land, but it is the best season for the land south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, the flowers are still blooming, and it is the best time to play. From the north and south of the river, countless rich and idle tourists, plus self-proclaimed talented literati, all gathered together.

How could those shrewd merchants let go of such a good opportunity to make a fortune, and they resorted to all kinds of means, just to empty the purses of their customers.

Of course, there are many literati and writers, and places like the Qinglou Chu Pavilion are extremely prosperous.

On this day, the top ten Qinglou in Fucheng united and set up a platform on the bank of the Luohua River outside the city to compare the beauty, wanting to choose the most beautiful and talented Oiran.

Everyone in the world loves to be lively, especially if it is such a fragrant event. In the evening, the competition began, and before noon, the stage by the river was already full of people.

Some shrewd and diligent vendors also took the opportunity to take the burden and move the business around.

In front of a wonton stall away from the stage, there were three young guests, two men and one woman, all twelve or thirteen years old. Two boys, one in blue, thin and delicate, and the other in red, looks like a tiger, and looks very honest and strong. The last girl's appearance is not delicate, but there is a rare touch of heartiness between her eyebrows, especially when she grins, anyone who sees it can't help but feel good.

The owners of the wonton stall are an elderly couple, and when they saw that their three children were the same age as their grandchildren, they had a sense of affection in their hearts. The old man stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Three little guest officers, do you want to try a bowl of wontons?" ”

The boy in red rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said, "Uncle, you are selling wontons here, do we still have to eat pies when we come here?" ”

The old man smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to reply. However, the boy in blue hurriedly spoke and said softly, "Uncle, my younger brother has a straightforward temperament and some rudeness, I hope you don't be surprised." ”

Although the old man was born in a small family and had never enjoyed any wealth in his life, he still had some eyesight at such an age. He looked at the three children at this moment, although the clothes were all sewn from ordinary cotton, but the needlework was excellent, and the speech and demeanor were also atmospheric, where did he dare to ignore it.

So, he waved his hand again and again and said with a smile, "It's the old man, I made a mistake in my question, and I don't blame this little master for correcting it." The wontons in the old man's house were taken from the newly killed chicken breast this morning, mixed with the fresh bamboo shoots picked in the bamboo forest outside the city, and the taste was excellent, so I brought three bowls. Young masters, if you feel that it is not to your taste, just leave, and you don't have to keep the money, how about it? ”

The boy in red was obviously a naughty man, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Uncle, you have to talk about it." The most important thing we need in our family is delicious food, and if I think it tastes bad, I really won't give silver. ”

The boy in blue glared at him fiercely, and said angrily, "Second brother, don't be rude." “

After speaking, he turned to the old man helplessly, and sighed, "Uncle, you can come with wontons, we believe in the old man's craftsmanship." ”

The old man didn't mind the words of the boy in red, so he smiled and went straight back to the back of the stall to help his wife make wontons.

The boy in blue pointed out that the boy in red had to be counted again, but the boy in red was the first to complain, "Murong Gong, you were born half an hour earlier than me, don't always put your brother on the shelf." Be careful when I go home and tell my mother, it was your idea to run away this time. ”

Murong Gong was dumbfounded by his younger brother, but he didn't want to lose face, so he turned to say, "Murong Ming, you don't believe in your words, you lost the bet last time, why don't you change your name and call me eldest brother?" ”

Murong Ming didn't care about finding a wooden stool and sat down, plucked out his ears casually, and said with a smile, "Big brother, good big brother, I'll remember it next time." Sit down, stand down, everybody should have seen it. When the time comes, they will be discovered by the head of the Wu sect, but it will be a bad thing. ”

Murong Gong was so angry by his younger brother's lazy appearance that he couldn't do it, but fortunately, his sister was quite well-behaved, so he smiled and pulled him to sit down with him, and persuaded, "Big brother, don't be angry with your second brother." There is no way for his mother to take him, except for his father, he is not afraid of heaven and earth. ”

Murong Gong was helpless and complained in a low voice, "It's all to blame on grandparents, he is too spoiled on weekdays, and he is getting more and more unattractive." ”

After speaking, he looked at his well-behaved and sensible sister, and his face became happy again, "It's still the best morning light, don't learn from your second brother..."

"Hey, hey, big brother, you're sorry for what you said." As soon as Murong Ming heard that his eldest brother was slandering himself in front of his most beloved sister, he immediately protested, causing both Murong Gong and Murong Chenxi to laugh.

The old man from before stepped forward with a large tray, put a bowl in front of each of the three brothers and sisters, and said with a smile, "Young master and young lady, eat it while it's hot, it's not fresh when it's cold." ”

Murong Gong nodded and said with a smile, "Uncle Xie." ”

Murong Ming didn't care about it, stretched out his chopsticks and scooped up a wonton and stuffed it into his mouth. Needless to say, he grinned at the scalding immediately, but he exhaled while praising the cool air, "It's delicious, my uncle's craftsmanship is so good!" ”

When the old man heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit with joy, and he said again and again, "Young Master Xie praises." ”

The three brothers and sisters ate wontons while watching the bustle in the distance, and soon their stomachs were round. Murong Chenxi took out a handkerchief to wipe her red mouth, and said casually, "I don't know what our mother is busy with at this time, I'm afraid I'm going to prepare to bake moon cakes, right?" ”

Murong Gong and Murong Ming listened to their sister's words, glanced at each other, a flash of worry flashed in their eyes, but when they spoke, they said with a smile, "Mother is afraid that she is angry, who let us sneak out, and threw down the head of the Wu sect and a few of them." However, we finally came out once, and we have to go to Qingxian to see it. Grandma said that all three of us were born there. We also have an orchard there, and it is said that the fruits that grow on the mountain are written on them. ”R638
