Zhong Liyue smiled at everyone and nodded in thanks. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The little guy on the side immediately brought the jar, rolled the paper and put it in, then sealed the lid and carried it to the river. The two stout men bowed to the sky, then raised the altar together and threw it vigorously towards the center of the river.

After the bottle throwing ceremony, the next step is to pay tribute to the sea Niangniang.

This kind of thing happens from time to time on the dock, and it is not surprising to everyone, and after the formal etiquette is over, everyone begins to get busy, counting goods, moving, and performing their duties.

Ping Yuyao stood beside Zhong Liyue, staring at Shen Zhaoyan with defensive eyes, he was calling him over there, he looked at both sides, and it was not impossible to go.

"You two stand here, I'm busy." Zhong Liyue held back her breath and said calmly.

Ping Yuyao hurriedly caught up with her.

"Boss Zhong!" Shen Zhaoyan stopped Zhong Liyue, walked a few steps in front of her, and said goodbye to her: "I think Boss Zhong still has a lot of things to do, so I won't bother." ”

His expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling always made Zhong Liyue's heart feel weak for a while, and she wished that he would leave quickly! Zhong Liyue arched her hand and said lightly: "Don't send it!" ”

Shen Zhaoyan smiled slightly, turned around and left.

"Did Boss Shen recognize you?" When Shen Zhaoyan was far away, Ping Yuyao immediately asked nervously in a low voice.

Zhong Liyue shrugged, looked at Shen Zhaoyan's lonely back, silently sighed in her heart, and replied softly, "I don't know." ”

"I don't recognize you, otherwise why wouldn't he expose you?" Ping Yuyao comforted: "You don't have to worry, even if he recognizes you, he won't dare to do anything to you!" When I come back from this trip, I will have money to redeem you. ”

Zhong Liyue smiled shallowly and nodded.

"I'm going to get busy."

"Well, hard work."

Ping Yuyao began to work in earnest, his previous experience on the ship worked, he methodically directed everyone to be busy with this and that, and the whole moving process was orderly.

Half an hour's work, the goods have been moved. Looking at the river, at least half of the boats were empty. Ping Yuyao also instructed the shipwrights to move the cargo and try to average the load of the ship.

"Don't, don't!" Seeing this, the head of the Sun cargo sent by Zhao Ding hurriedly waved his hand to stop him: "In my opinion, it is better to concentrate on loading, in case of strong winds and waves, we can also appropriately choose to abandon some of these empty ships that are not loaded." ”

"This is our problem, so we don't have to worry about it." Ping Yuyao smiled indifferently and said.

"This!" touched the gray head of Sun Goods, and muttered a few words dissatisfiedly.

The goods were all arranged, and Ping Yuyao ordered the captain to pull the anchor.

"Good things are grinding, and this journey will be hard for you." Before, Zhong Liyue had the heart to remind Ping Yuyao.

"This is what I have to do! You have to take good care of yourself in Huanjing. Try not to wander around the streets and go back early. Ping Yuyao's eyes showed a hint of reluctance.

"You don't have to worry about me here, no matter how bad it is, your life won't be in danger! But the sea is unpredictable, so you must be careful! Zhong Liyue said.

"Hmm."

In view of the fact that last time he disregarded his own safety to save her, the person he met in Pingshui, Zhong Liyue said solemnly: "Promise me, no matter what, come back alive!" ”

Ping Yuyao looked at her quietly for a moment and nodded. With the sound of the horn, he slowly walked onto the boat, Zhong Liyue saw him, and when he got on the boat, she stretched out her arm and waved to make a final goodbye.

When all the ships disappeared from sight, Zhong Liyue slowly turned around and left the dock.

Back at the inn where she stayed last night, Zhong Liyue took off her mask, changed into her original women's clothes, and then went to the northernmost part of the market to hire a carriage and prepare to go back to Dinghe Village.

The outside world is not so attractive to her anymore, and she just wants to snuggle up at home quietly now, planning for the future. Wait for Ping Yuyao to 'win the first battle', and after these three months, she will show her skills!

The carriage sped quickly in the direction of Dinghe Village, and at the fork in the road, which was still two miles away from the village, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, I heard a familiar man's voice coming into the car: "Is it Zhong Liyue Zhong girl?" ”

Zhong Liyue opened the curtain and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Mingde? ”

"Miss Zhong." Mingde said lukewarmly to Zhong Liyue: "The eldest young master of our family is invited." ”

Miss Chung? Zhong Liyue wondered in her heart, Mingde had always called her by her name before, why did she suddenly change her words? It must have been Shen Zhaoyan who told him, what did Shen Zhaoyan say to him?

After getting out of the carriage, Zhong Liyue was about to pay the money, and Mingde took the initiative to pay the money, and then walked to the side with her.

There was a carriage parked under the big tree dozens of meters away, and Mingde took Zhong Liyue to the carriage but did not stop, but continued to walk forward. After walking a hundred meters away, when she was about to reach a small river, Zhong Liyue saw Shen Zhaoyan's figure. He was sitting cross-legged by the river, concentrating on fishing with a fishing rod, and a tent was set up behind him.

He's going camping here tonight?

"Big young master, Miss Zhong is here." Mingde went over, blessed slightly, and said respectfully. With that, he turned and left.

Shen Zhaoyan was wearing a moon-white silk robe with black bronzing trim, and his temperament was outstanding, and he knew at a glance that he was a pampered rich boy. Zhong Liyue lowered her head and looked at her clothes, coarse linen, and she looked like a peasant girl.

There is no harm without contrast. People from different walks of life wear clothes of different textures and stand together, and the difference between cloud and mud is immediate.

However, Zhong Liyue did not feel inferior because of this, she just felt that their growth backgrounds were completely different, and if they wanted to integrate each other's ideas, they needed to overcome not only the disparity in identity, but also each other's deep-rooted and unchangeable three views.

"Come here!" Shen Zhaoyan tilted his head and smiled at Zhong Liyue, who was there.

When he smiled, everything around him lost color in an instant, as if even the unfathomable eyes of ordinary life were full of smiles. Zhong Liyue realized that she was a little distracted, so she hurriedly gathered her eyes, walked over, sat down beside him, and silently waited for his question.

"Would you like to try it?"

What Shen Zhaoyan asked was this.

Zhong Liyue remembers that when she was a child, her grandfather took her to fish twice, and then because of her schoolwork, she never went fishing again. Zhong Liyue said coldly: "Although this is the upper reaches of the Ding River, there are no fish, otherwise Ding River Village would have become Huaxi Village." ”

"Huaxi Village?" Shen Zhaoyan looked dazed, shook his head and said, "It's because I'm lonely and unheard, and I haven't heard of it." ”

"It's what it means to describe a rich village." Zhong Liyue said nonsense casually.

Shen Zhaoyan smiled and asked slowly, "Does Liyue believe that there will be miracles in this world?" ”

Zhong Liyue glanced at the barrel on his side, it was empty. She said coldly: "Even if you catch one, it's not a miracle!" It's normal for the drier river to have the occasional fish. ”

Shen Zhaoyan curled the corners of his lips and smiled disapprovingly.

Suddenly, he felt the rod in his hand sink for a moment, so he waited silently, and then pulled the rod up suddenly. Zhong Liyue's whole heart was raised, and she stared intently at the bottom of the fishing line. When Shen Zhaoyan hooked the fishing line over, it was a big fat fish.

Both of them couldn't help but smile happily. (To be continued.) )
