Chapter 18: Set sail

Early the next morning.

Jia Lian didn't wake up from a hangover, and Sun Shaozong was natural. became the commander-in-chief of the whole house, first stuffed a few large carts with many luggage and sundries, and then ordered someone to go to the backyard to invite the ladies to set off.

During this period, Sun Shaozong remembered Jia Lian's drunken words that day, so he secretly looked at Lin Daiyu's luggage, and saw that it was a little shabby as he thought, so he couldn't help but sigh.

As the saying goes, 'three years of Qing prefect's 100,000 snowflakes of silver', this salt road yamen is the world's first-class fat shortage, better than the prefect more than ten times?

No matter how honest Lin Ruhai is, there are always 100,000 taels of silver, but now there are only these worthless sundries left - combined with Jia Lian's words that Jia Lian was drunk that day and admitted that he was sorry for Daiyu, the whereabouts of the silver can be imagined.

"Why is Shao Zong sighing?"

At this moment, Jia Yucun's voice came from behind him.

Sun Shaozong's heart was abrupt, and he hurriedly turned around and said perfunctorily: "Lord Lin is such an honest official, but unfortunately died young, isn't it a pity?" ”

"Alas~"

Na Jia Yucun also sighed to himself, and said with emotion: "Brother Ruhai is really a talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, but how can he think that he is jealous of his talents, so he died like this - fortunately, there is still a noble relative of Rongguo Mansion, otherwise it is good that no one will take care of the affairs after death, my lonely female student, how can I be good?" ”

Noble relatives are actually relatives with a high price!

Just listening to Jia Yucun's special emphasis on the word 'noble relatives', Sun Shaozong knew that this old fox had already seen the clues, but he was praising Rongguo Mansion every sentence, and he couldn't find a trace of omission, which was really cunning.

After a while, a mother-in-law came out and shouted: "The girls are coming out, and the idlers are waiting to avoid it!" ”

Sun Jizong consciously led Feng Xin to the side, but when he thought of that Daiyu, he was inevitably curious, so when the female dependents went out to get into the car, he couldn't help but look around.

I saw Ruan Rong beside him, a small person was skinny, but his facial features were still exquisite, even if Yan Liben was afraid that it would be difficult to paint such a color in his next life.

For a while, Sun Shaozong preferred plumpness, and it was inevitable that some thoughts should not be born, so he was busy reciting the heart-purifying mantra three times in his heart:

More than three years and less than ten years!

More than three years and less than ten years!

More than three years and less than ten years!

This is like a slap in the face, and I am much more sober.

However, it was said that a group of more than ten people rode horses and rode cars, and went straight to the wharf, and when they arrived at the destination, there were already local officials waiting to greet and see them off.

Sun Shaozong didn't want to come forward to replace this matter, so he entrusted Jia Yucun to deal with it - anyway, there were many of them who came to send him.

Sun Shaozong first settled the female dependents, and then put the luggage in the cabin, and finally even cleaned up his own cabin, but when he came out, he saw that Jia Yucun was still polite with people on the dock, as if he was writing some kind of farewell sour poems, so he had to hang out on the deck.

This ship is probably a modified building ship, about 25 meters from head to end, about 1 zhang 6 wide, there are three decks above and below the deck, a rail pole runs straight to the end, the rudder at the stern can be raised and lowered, and there is a large oar seven or eight meters long - it looks a little different from the passenger ship sitting on the Yangtze River.

After asking the boatmen, I learned that the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is not as good as the Yangtze River, and there are many shoals in it, and the rudder will not only not be able to control the direction, but may be stuck in the bottom of the water, so it is necessary to raise the rudder and shake the oar to steer in and out.

was lying on the stern of the boat to look at the 'living rudder', but someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

Sun Shaozong didn't need to look back to know that it was Ruan Rong, so he smiled: "What's the matter, it's boring down there?" ”

Ruan Rong squeezed to his side, first glanced down curiously, but didn't see anything rare, then raised her head and smiled: "Do you want to know, what did Sister Lin say about you?" ”

But it turned out that when Sun Shaozong peeked at Daiyu, Daiyu also quietly observed Sun Shaozong.

Although his heart is curious, Sun Shaozong will be so stupid as to show it directly?

Seeing that no one was paying attention, he lowered his head and pecked her face, and said with a smile: "I don't care what she says, as long as you like it?" ”

"I hate it, then I won't tell you!"

Ruan Rong smashed a fist in his chest in disgust, but she couldn't hold it back after all, and broke the news with a smile: "Just now in the cabin, Daiyu said that you are the heart of a fox, wrapped in a bear skin, and told me not to be deceived by your appearance." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.

Bearskin Fox Heart?

This little girl is really scathing and mean when she speaks!

But this description is really a bit appropriate, a traverser like Sun Shaozong, isn't it just stuffing the 'heart' into someone else's skin?

The two chatted a few more words, and then a small servant came over, saying that Jia Yucun had boarded the boat and asked if he wanted to leave immediately.

Sun Shaozong naturally wanted to hurry on the road, so he gave an order, and the boatmen shouted to untie the cable, pull up the springboard, and take out a few braces, carefully propping the boat out of the dock, and then raising the sails and going up the river.

-- Dividing line --

Along the way, Sun Shaozong either sang with Jia Lian about wine, or talked with Jia Yucun, and occasionally got the opportunity to fight with Ruan Rong's ears and temples, but rarely bumped into Daiyu.

It was the middle of winter at this time, and the cold wind on the river was blowing, and Lin Daiyu's small body was really unbearable, so she had to nest in the cabin to dance and ink, or chat with Ruan Rong to relieve boredom.

But it was said that this afternoon.

Sun Shaozong tricked Ruan Rong into his cabin, so that he could coax her to do the thing of making a shuttle with her slender hands, and when she reached Xingnong, she couldn't help but feel a little greedy again, and gently pressed her head down......

Touch~

Coincidentally, at this moment, I don't know if I hit something, the hull of the ship shook violently, Ruan Rong couldn't stand on his feet steadily, so he pressed Sun Shaozong and hit the vital point between his legs!

Just this collision, there is almost a 'chicken flying egg fight'!

"Ah~!!"

Sun Shaozong screamed, clamped his legs in pain, rolled straight from the bed to the bottom of the bed, and screamed in his mouth, gasping vigorously.

Seeing this, Ruan Rong couldn't help but lose her face, hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and asked with concern, "Brother Sun?!" Are you okay? Want...... Would you like to see a doctor?! ”

She is also concerned about chaos, right now the passenger boat is passing through a hilly area, along the banks of the river are more than 20 meters high cliffs, but where to find a doctor?

Sun Shaozong snorted for a long time before he barely raised his bruised face and said with a forced smile: "No...... It's okay, wait for me to take a break...... Hiss~ Just slow down, you ...... Go back to the cabin first, it's a mess on this deck, and if someone comes looking for me, you won't be able to leave. ”

At this time, there was indeed a noise on the deck, and it seemed that two groups of people were yelling at each other.

Although Ruan Rong was worried about Sun Shaozong's 'injury', she was also afraid of being blocked in the cabin, so under Sun Shaozong's repeated urging, she finally turned around and walked out of the cabin door step by step.

But said that after she left, Sun Shaozong immediately locked the door and jumped up and down like a rabbit with his 'tail', so he still looks like a tough guy?
