After everything was arranged, Ran Ran went home pretending to have nothing to do, and in case she accidentally showed her feet, she found an excuse to go back to the house early, wrote several letters in one go, and then went to bed contentedly. It was rare to get up early the next day, so I came to Liu Qin'er to help take care of Zheng'er, and I hurried to Mingzhu Pavilion.

In order to avoid being discovered, Ran Ran didn't even bring a single piece of clothing, and only grabbed a handful of broken silver for emergency use.

Because she behaved so naturally and normally, no one suspected that she had quietly gone out of the city gates. Sitting in the carriage, she secretly lifted the curtain and looked at the blue sky, and finally couldn't help but get excited, after so many years, she finally survived to this day.

The carriage stopped suddenly, and the voice of the shopkeeper Mo sounded outside the car: "Lady, the ferry has arrived." ”

Ran Ran was a little surprised, lifted the curtain of the car, and walked out, "How could it be you, I thought it was just an ordinary coachman, and I didn't care about it all along." ”

Shopkeeper Mo smiled bitterly, "Others are not at ease, since it is the lady who has decided to leave, then I can only come to see you off in person." Ran Ran gratefully blessed him, and the shopkeeper hurriedly avoided it, "It's a long way to go, there are many inconveniences on the road, and I have nothing to give to the lady, but please accept this anyway." ”

Looking at the shopkeeper Mo handing over a small piece of wood, about two fingers long and half a finger wide, the wood chip was wrapped around a layer of hollowed-out metal, and at first glance it was an object such as a pass.

"This is the token of the money bank under the name of Wanshun Zhuang, you can go to the money village to receive ten taels every month, any money bank can be, and you have to report ten taels more." Ran Ran was a little surprised when she heard this, this is not equal to the advance system for people going out, I didn't expect Wanshunzhuang to be so advanced. "Although ten taels is not much, I can still respond to emergencies at a critical moment, and I think it is my heart."

Ran Ran felt a little sour in her heart, she met with the shopkeeper Mo, but in fact, she didn't have much feelings, most of them were on the business road, I didn't expect him to be so generous at this time. No matter how many silver tickets she asked him for, she would run out of them, in case something happened along the way. Inevitably, there will be times when you are stretched thin. This wooden sign is simply a life-saving bag, ten taels is enough for her to live comfortably for a month

"I thank Shopkeeper Mo for his kindness, if I come back one day, I will repay Shopkeeper Mo's great kindness." Ran Ran learned from the people of the rivers and lakes to say goodbye to the shopkeeper Mo.

Shopkeeper Mo opened his mouth and moved. Still didn't say anything, just nodded and watched Ran Ran leave.

The ferry port is not big, but there are quite a lot of people, and Ran Ran followed the crowd all the way to the pier. I didn't feel sad at all because of parting, but I was very excited because I could leave. Someone stopped at the ferry and asked her where she was going, her mind was empty, and she found that she had no goal at all, but fortunately someone in front of her reported the name of the place, and she followed suit, and after paying the fare, she squeezed onto the boat.

Unlike the ferry she imagined, a small wooden boat was only six or seven meters long, but the cabin was crowded with people. Ranran couldn't sit still, and squeezed into the bow of the boat to watch the boatman rock. The oars rowed across the water, splashing a little truth, which made her very happy, and she longed for the pleasure of the light boat having crossed the ten thousand mountains.

Seeing her squatting on the side of the boat, stretching her neck to look at the water, the boatman kindly reminded: "Little girl, be careful, you will fall into the water, let's go and sit in the boat." ”

Ran Ran was in a good mood, where would she go back to the cabin, and huddle with a group of strangers. She quickly became more uneasy.

So he looked up at the boatman and smiled: "Don't be afraid, I will swim." ”

The boatman was a stout man in his fifties, and his sturdy and dark calves were exposed under his trousers, and he couldn't help but open his slender eyes. He said, "Yo, this is terrible, a little girl like you is no better than us in the countryside." ”

The water was not clear, except for the mud and sand and aquatic weeds hooked up by the oars, and there was not half a swimming fish in sight, so she simply sat cross-legged. Curiously looking at the boatman: "What do you little country girls look like?" ”

The boatman smiled, and it sounded very honest, "I can't say what it looks like, but I'm not as beautiful as you." ”

Ran Ran was taken aback, and her heart instantly blossomed, and she smiled sweetly: "Uncle is really good at talking, it's the first time I've been praised for being beautiful when I'm so big." ”

The boatman was a little anxious when he heard this, thinking that Ran Ran did not trust his words, and nervously defended: "How come! You're the prettiest little girl I've ever seen, and I don't think I'm just going back and forth on this boat, but I've seen so many people. ”

Afraid of being noticed by Liu Qin'er, Ran Ran still dresses up every day, and deliberately pinned a few hairpins, which is a girl of cardamom age, even if she doesn't apply fat powder, she also has a bit of good color. Besides, Ranran has increased her nutrition over the years, all kinds of whitening and skin rejuvenation, eating, and using, anyway, she is not bad for money to study. So although she can't say that she is alluring to the country and the city, compared with the people in the cabin, she looks fresh and refined.

Ran Ran patronized the fun and didn't say anything, and the other boatman at the stern seemed to hear the conversation here, and raised his voice and shouted: "Lao Jiu, don't brag, which little girl did you see didn't say that." Besides, you go back and forth on the boat, and you can see how many little girls run out on their own. ”

At these words, the whole cabin burst into laughter, and the boatman, who was called Lao Jiu, was so stunned that his face turned red with laughter.

He was a little anxious, and he couldn't speak, so he could only scratch the pulp vigorously and squeeze out a few words from between his teeth: "I! I've just seen it! It's true! No lie. ”

As soon as Lao Jiuyi exerted his strength, the boat suddenly shook a little, Ran Ran grabbed the side of the boat, and said with a wry smile: "Uncle, don't worry, even if you lie to me, I am very happy." ”

"I really didn't lie, little girl......" Lao Jiu was still obsessed with the word deception, and dangled the oars a little angrily, but he didn't expect that Ran Ran was not used to taking a boat, and he was so shaken that the whole person was going to fly out, and he was so frightened that he shouted: "Be careful!" ”

Ran Ran was shaken a little dizzy, her hand loosened, her body tilted, and she suddenly felt like she was going to fall off the boat. Fortunately, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind her back and pulled her up in time, so as to avoid falling into the water. She patted her chest, and before she retreated, she thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you...... Nanshan! "It's just that I didn't expect her to look up, just to see which kind person saved her, but she couldn't face Nanshan Tieqing." How could it be you. ”

The boatman Lao Jiu was a little weak-hearted, and asked with concern: "Little girl, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Ran Ran gave him a reassuring smile back, but her heart was empty for a while.

In her impression, Nanshan always smiled gently, even if she was angry, she frowned at most, but she would soon be relieved. But now Nanshan's eyes are almost about to pop out, his gloomy face is like a fierce god, Ran Ran is secretly surprised, it turns out that no matter how good-looking a person is, it is so terrifying to start a fire.

"You're going to just leave?"

Nanshan grabbed her hand tightly, as if he was about to pinch her wrist, and his cold tone was like nine-foot ice, and he didn't dare to make a sound despite the pain. (To be continued.) )
