Han Xiufeng not only didn't joke with Datou, but also walked around for several days, and the farthest place was to Huayan Temple, where Qin'er had never been, and even had a meal in the temple.

Go out early and return late, tour the mountains and rivers, it's not comfortable, time flies, and it's the tenth in a blink of an eye.

Aunt Wang stood at the door with a rice bowl as usual and asked, "Master Han, where are you going to play today?" ”

Han Xiufeng turned sideways and let the pillar go out first with the basket, and then said with a smile: "I've visited all the places in the city, and I plan to go to Jiangbei to visit relatives today." Aunt Wang, I have to ask you to help take care of the door. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay with me." Aunt Wang looked at Qin'er who had just walked out with her sister, and couldn't help laughing: "This is going to your sister's house, your sister's house is in Jiangbei." ”

"Yes, isn't Zhixing going to leave in two days, my sister and my brother-in-law asked someone to send us a letter to let us go to her house for a meal."

"Yes, you should go, and besides, how good your sister's family is. Others don't know that I know, your sister's family is a famous rich man in Jiangbei, this meal will not be eaten in vain, and you will not go in vain. ”

"What is not eaten for nothing, we are going to eat for nothing." Qin'er smiled embarrassedly, took her sister's arm and walked forward.

Han Xiufeng waited for Pan Er to lock the door, and said again: "Aunt Wang, let's go, Jiangbei is not far away, but it is troublesome to cross the river, and I don't know if I can come back today, please leave it to you at the door." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, let's go."

……

Han Xiufeng has been idle in the Yamen Gang for so many years, and he knows a lot of people, but after moving here, he has become a neighbor, and he knows more people than before.

Guan Zhutou and Wang Jingcheng happened to be talking to Duan Jingcheng at the city gate, and Han Xiufeng hurriedly went up to greet him.

When the people in the yamen spoke, the people in Pingtou would only walk around and dare not approach, and even Pan Er, Datou, Qin'er, and Mi Mei'er were all waiting on the side. After waiting for nearly a stick of incense, Han Xiufeng finished talking to them, and then led everyone to the dock without looking back.

"Fourth brother, the ship is over here!"

"It's hard work, it's the boat money."

"Cross the river, what kind of money do you want! Fourth brother, didn't you slap me in the face! ”

"One yard to one yard, I should invite you to tea."

"Okay, get on board."

The boatman took a copper plate and led everyone to the gangplank, for fear of being too shaky, and ran over to help.

Han Xiufeng helped Qin'er onto the boat first, and then came back to help his sister, Pan Er looked behind him, took a deep breath, tightened the blanket on his shoulders and ran onto the boat. The big head was originally a porter who was begging for a living at the dock, and he wouldn't fall down if he carried the burden, and as soon as Pan Er got into the cabin, he carried the two baskets on the gangplank.

"Fourth brother, there are so many boats outside, this boat can't get out!" The big head stepped onto the bow of the boat, looked at the boat tied to the outside and shouted.

"Whoever said we sit on this, we sit on that."

"Oh, I'll put the burden down first."

As she spoke, Qin'er and her sister had carefully climbed from the boat next to the dock to the boat outside, and then into the cabin of the boat outside.

Pan Er followed, and as soon as the big head carried the basket to the second boat, he saw a familiar face appear in front of him, and couldn't help asking: "Zhuzi, when did you come, what are you doing on the boat?" ”

"Yes, how did you know we were going to Jiangbei?" My sister also asked puzzled.

"I'm here to see off the fourth brother," the pillar lifted a straw mat with his hand, looked at the full warehouse of luggage and said: "I came yesterday afternoon, these turtle sons on the dock have unclean hands and feet, so many things are not at ease here, I slept on the boat for a night, and I didn't go back when I came." ”

"Fourth brother, are you leaving today?" The younger sister asked in surprise.

"Well, I'll leave later," Han Xiufeng looked back at the dock, put down the curtain and choked up: "I originally wanted to wait for two days, but those enemies who thought of the big head were not sure, so I asked Brother Pan and Zhuzi to quietly send the luggage onto the boat first, and went to Jiangbei under the pretext that the relatives left two days in advance." ”

The big head muttered: "Fourth brother, what's not down-to-earth, I can deal with a few of them!" ”

"Shut up!" Zhu Zi glared at him fiercely, then got up and said: "Fourth brother, I'll send it here, be careful on the way, and remember to send a letter to your home when you arrive in the capital to report your safety." ”

"Okay, I'll give you a letter as soon as I arrive in the capital."

"Fourth brother......" Qin'er has a thousand words, but she can't say a word when she is about to separate, so she can only hug him and cry, so bitter that her heart is broken.

"Don't cry, it's okay, I'll send a letter home as soon as I arrive in the capital." Han Xiufeng was also like a knife, wiped a handful of tears and choked up, "Sister, help your sister-in-law get on the boat." ”

"Fourth brother, what boat are you on?" My sister also cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain.

"Go to the outside one, let's go to Jiangbei." The pillar pulled her sleeve, then turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, the dock is full of the eyes and ears of the tea gang, you can't cry anymore, if you cry again, you will really lose your efforts." ”

"Well," it was about the lives of Han Xiufeng and others, Qin'er didn't dare to cry anymore, but thinking of being so separated and unwilling, she actually hugged Han Xiufeng's arm and bit it hard.

A sharp pain struck, and Han Xiufeng grinned in pain, but he didn't dare or want to break away.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother, I still say the same thing, no matter where you go, no matter what happens, don't forget that there is still a home here, don't forget that I am still waiting for you at home......"

"Yes, yes."

"I'm leaving."

"Hmm."

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

Qin'er, Mi Mei'er and Zhu Zi climbed onto the outermost boat, the boatman untied the cable, picked up the penny and gently pushed the boat away, seeing the boat they were sitting on sailing down the river to the other side of the river, Han Xiufeng couldn't hold back any longer, and sat on the luggage and hugged his head and cried.

Before that, Pan Er couldn't wait to get as far away from home as possible.

And at this moment, he suddenly remembered his hometown, his father, mother-in-law and two babies in his hometown, and he was unspeakably uncomfortable, and he sat down and hugged his head and cried.

The big head put down the flat shoulder and asked heartlessly: "Pan Er, the fourth brother is reluctant to cry sister-in-law, you also cry, why are you crying?" ”

"I also have a mother-in-law, I still have a baby, why can't I cry!" The more Pan Er thought about it, the more sad he became, and he couldn't help kicking him: "Get out of the way, don't turn in front of Lao Tzu's eyes." ”

"Kick me again, believe it or not, I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish!"

"Big head, don't say a word." Han Xiufeng raised his head to wipe away his tears, and said in a choked voice: "Listen to my brother, kowtow a few times to the shore." ”

"Kowtow to whom?" The big head asked stupidly.

"Knock to your dead father and mother, and kowtow to the ancestors of the Yuan family!" Han Xiufeng took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I don't know when I can come back, and I don't even know if I can come back." If you don't knock now, you won't be able to knock if you want to in the future. ”

"So I'm going to have to knock a few." The big head had some truth in his heart, and knelt down on the deck with a plop, kowtowing vigorously in the direction of the heavenly gate.
