Chapter 429: Companions (Second Update)
This was just a trivial matter, Guo Dayou quickly threw it away and hurried home.
After going back, I saw that Shen Yisan was also there, and they had seen each other.
Guo Shouye ordered him to return to Green Bay Village immediately.
He said: "Your eldest brother's family has Shen's family to help me, so you can go home." Your daughter-in-law is about to give birth at home, and the most important thing for you is to guard her. When the day comes, your mother will also go back. β
Guo Dayou said: "Yes." β
Shen Yisan also said: "The second virtuous nephew should go back." There is your big brother Shen in Xiazhao City, and you can take care of it; Green Bay Village must be pressed by someone, and it is not enough to rely on the clansmen alone. I heard your mother say that in a few days, your little sister will come to Fucheng to open for Yirenfang. β
Guo Dayou then went back to the room to pack up and prepared to leave.
That day, it changed and it rained heavily in the afternoon.
Huzhou wharf is shrouded in rain and fog.
The shipwrights of the Guo family have already received the news, so they are waiting for Guo Dayou to come and set off at any time.
At this time, a pregnant woman with a big belly staggered over with an oil-paper umbrella.
She asked if the Guo family's boat was bound for Xiazhao, and asked the boat boss to take her for a ride.
Boat Old Avenue: "Our ship does not take passengers. There's a passenger boat over there. β
The pregnant woman pleaded bitterly, saying that she had no money and could not take a boat.
The captain of the ship was embarrassed to hear this.
It's not that he is hard-hearted, but the Guo family's recent eventful season, this pregnant woman is of unknown origin, he doesn't dare to take her privately, if something goes wrong, he can't tell at that time.
When he saw that the woman was bloated and staggering in the rain, he did not dare to drive her away too much, so he took out of his pocket a dime of silver and gave it to her. Said: "That's it, let's give you a boat." β
The pregnant woman refused to accept it and said, "Uncle will take me." β
The captain of the boat became vigilant: "Why do you have to take our boat?" β
The pregnant woman said tiredly: "Uncle, you are good." I can't help ......."
As he was talking, Guo Dayou hurriedly came with someone.
The captain of the boat hurriedly greeted him, pointed to the pregnant woman and whispered to him about the situation.
"I've already given her silver, and she won't leave."
Guo Dayou approached to see who it was.
At first glance, he said strangely: "It's you again?!" β
It turned out to be Zeng again.
When Zeng saw him, his face showed joy, and he couldn't care about it. Busy begging him, hoping that he would allow her to board the boat for the sake of acquaintance. Take her back to her parents' house.
Guo Dayou asked seriously: "Why do you have to follow Guo Jiachuan?" β
Zeng shook his head and said, "It doesn't have to be with the Guo family, it's-" Speaking of this, he stopped, leaned closer to him, and lowered his voice again-"I don't dare to take a boat over there." My man works in the yamen of the political envoy. Recently, the yamen checked the accounts. It's a lot of trouble...... I'm always being asked for trouble. I'm scared and want to go back to my parents' house to hide......"
The rain rattled, and the boat boss and the others couldn't hear what she was saying.
However, in the end, Guo Dayou let her on the boat.
When he got on the boat, he carefully helped her, "Don't slip." β
Guo's boat left the dock, and a man flashed out from behind a big willow tree by the river, looking at the boat that disappeared in the middle of the river. With a gloomy face, he left for a long time.
Guo Dayou brought Zeng's back to Xia Zhao safely.
He stayed overnight in Kasumi. The next day, he and Wu returned to Green Bay Village.
Heavy rain fell for three days in a row, and the river swelled.
Since then, it has been raining continuously.
On this day, the Chen family took Yan Duyu to Fucheng to see Yan Weiyang, and Qing Mu went with the Yan family's big ship. She not only met with Yan Weiyang for Yirenfang, but also learned about the progress of the Guo family's patent case by the way. She specially brought Qiao'er and Shen Huaijin with her, so that they could see the establishment of Yirenfang with their own eyes and increase their knowledge. Originally, Fu'er and Brother Pan were going to go with her, but Brother Pan said that she wanted to stay and help the third sister-in-law take care of the family, and she had some experience in weaving recently, so she had to think about it and didn't want to go out. Seeing that she had been working hard recently, Qing Mu left her behind.
Yan Jipeng and Shen Hanqiu both sent capable men to escort them.
At Jingjiang Wharf, they met the Han family's big ship again.
"Sister Guo, I'm going to Fucheng just as well."
Han Xiyi looked dumb with a smile, looking like he had met by chance. He was dressed in white, indescribably chic and elegant, looking at the dumb gaze, more vigorous than the grass and trees by the river, softer than the drizzle in the sky, and more resolute than the surface calm, but in fact the rolling river!
Qing Du wanted to ask: "How can you walk away from such a busy job?" β
But wisely, she didn't ask.
If he asked, he must have a reasonable set of arguments to deal with her.
She said, "Then we're on our way." β
Han Xiyi nodded heavily and said with a smile: "Yes!" β
That joy poured out from the starry eyes under his sword eyebrows.
Dumb and confused and awkward: Didn't you already explain your heart to him? Why follow her? But she couldn't help but let him follow, this river was not from the Guo family, and she had no reason to stop him from going to Huzhou Fucheng, so she had to pretend to be confused, and she was not very comfortable after all.
She was a little careful about how to hide it from Han Xiyi, he was a little happy, and a little apologetic, and shouted: "Sister! The word "Guo" was omitted.
Dumb and busy: "Get on the boat." β
Without looking at him again, he turned around and went to the boat.
The slender waist and the little sister hurriedly followed.
Passing by Han Xiyi's side, the thin waist glanced at him, and for the first time, he didn't raise his eyebrows coldly, and greeted him with a bow.
This time she went to Fucheng, she was told and warned by Shen Hanqiu, and she was very cautious. With Han Xiyi by her side, presumably he also brought people, and she could take care of one or two on the road, so she could rest assured.
Han Xiyi was stunned for a moment, then realized and couldn't help laughing.
After laughing, he waved behind him and strode towards his boat.
In addition to Xiaoxiu, there is also a large group of people such as President Han Da.
Don't get me wrong, not all of these people are going to Fucheng with him.
As soon as he got on the boat, he was busy:
"You, take this letter and send it to the capital immediately."
He handed a small bamboo tube to one of the guards.
The guard took the letter with both hands, answered and went out.
"Mr. Han, from today onwards, it will be spread to all places: the price of cocoons is gradually increasing. Especially the land of the two lakes. It's best to get one price a day. It is necessary to buy before others. He instructed Mr. Han.
"This ...... Wouldn't it hurt too much? Manager Han hesitated.
"Just do as I say!" Han Xiyi's answer was very arbitrary.
"Yes." Manager Han had no choice but to obey the order.
"Han Zhang, come here." Han Xiyi shouted again.
Han Zhang hurriedly stepped forward.
"When Mother Hong's side succeeds, she will send people to Fucheng." Han Xiyi said in a low voice.
Han Zhang nodded "yes".
β¦β¦
The big ship of the Han family kept people hurrying up and down. Before the boat was about to leave, there were still people disembarking; Waiting for the boat to leave Jingjiang Wharf, it took a long way, and some people put the boat into the water and went ashore, and people who didn't know the inside story were confused.
Chief Manager Han and the others complained in their hearts: "The young master only ran after Miss Guo and moved the study to the boat. What could have been explained in one sentence caused everyone to toss. Excess runaways. It's okay now, but when I get to Fucheng, the road is farther. β
Han Xiyi temporarily learned that Qing Mu was going to Fucheng. I have to go with me immediately, how can I have time to arrange the things at hand; What's more, he has a lot of things to do, and he has no clues, and it can't be arranged in a day and a half; Today is arranged. Tomorrow there will be something new. And if you have to adjust, what's the right thing!
He was busy for more than an hour before he could arrange the urgent matter.
When the people were gone, he walked to the bow of the boat and looked at the big ship in front of him.
"Although they are peers, they are not in the same boat!" There was something inadequate in his heart.
How can she feel that he is there with her?
With a roll of his eyes, he untied the flute.
Suddenly, the sound of the flute flew over the river.
Xiaoxiu is still busy.
He was packing up for Han Xiyi.
I heard the sound of a flute. He looked at the eldest young master who was snuggling by the window, his eyes full of admiration.
Every night. The eldest and youngest masters have to blow the flute until the time of the child before going back to rest; Get up at the beginning of the morning to deal with business; During the day, he spun like a spinning top, and he couldn't be idle for a moment, just like that, he didn't show the slightest tiredness, not to mention the energy, but also unusually energetic.
On a temporary trip this morning, the Han family was in chaos.
In this case, the eldest young master did not forget to ask Jingnu and Tao Nu to carry all his summer clothes onto the boat, and did not let the second daughter accompany him, leaving them all to him Xiaoxiu to clean up alone.
For all kinds of robes, Xiaoxiu couldn't figure it out: the eldest young master has high requirements for clothing, and every piece of clothing is fine from fabric selection to color matching, to sewing and embroidery, so all clothes are high-quality. On weekdays, he doesn't pay attention to such trivial things as dressing, and often picks one out of his hand and puts it on, but it doesn't make him feel anything wrong. Today, however, he has been specially instructed to bring many garments, which is not like his usual style.
Xiaoxiu secretly guessed: The eldest young master should be for Miss Guo.
Women are allowed to please themselves!
Of course, the eldest young master is a man, but it is also that mind.
While he was thinking, he resigned himself to placing the eldest young master's gorgeous clothes separately according to color and style, and some of them were hung up for the eldest young master to choose.
It's easy to finish the work, and seeing that the eldest young master is still blowing, I feel a little distressed.
After thinking about it, he went outside to make tea.
When Han Xiyi finished the song, he came in with a cup of fragrant tea, and said with a smile: "Young Master, let's take a break and drink saliva." I'm tired of blowing all the time. β
Han Xiyi put down the dong flute and said with a smile: "I'm not tired." β
But he still took the jade cup he was used to drinking and took a sip.
Then he asked, "Are you all dressed?" β
Xiaoxiu hurriedly said: "It's all cleaned up." Does the eldest young master want to change his clothes? β
Even if it is changed, the beauty is not on this boat, and it will not be visible!
Han Xiyi thought for a while and said, "I'll change it later." β
Xiaoxiu was slightly stunned - do you really want to change?
He suddenly admired Miss Guo's charm.
Along the way, the sound of the flute flew with the rolling river.
On the Yan family's boat, Chen smiled meaningfully at Qing and said, "Uncle Han plays this flute well. Along the way, we are not lonely. Otherwise, it's very boring to take a boat. β
Qing Du nodded slightly, feeling that his face was a little feverish.
When the sound of the flute just started, she listened quite comfortably and felt very good.
Later, when she found that he kept blowing, and the sound of the flute frequently revealed the meaning of invitation and inquiry, she was a little upsetβhe must have hoped that she would make peace with the piano.
In this way, she obviously wants to play the piano, but it is not easy to play.
