Chapter Ninety-Two: Returning
The sun is shining, the sea breeze is smooth, and even the dead trees in Shanghai County have sprouted green shoots.
The original depressed town seemed jubilant, the county magistrate Ren Chongyuan personally attended the listing ceremony of Songhu Ocean Co., Ltd., and the scrawny county eagerly held the hand of the company's chairman and general manager Chen Xingzhi in the hustle and bustle, as if he had seen his parents.
Su Xinqi, who was on the side, thought angrily: Isn't it just food and clothing...... received a full 1,000 taels of silver from Chen Xian's house.
At the listing ceremony, Chen Xingzhi personally announced the company's business direction, vowing to build Shanghai County into the first port of Daming, and also announced on the spot the practical action of relief to the victims - 4,500 catties of fish will be transported to Songjiang through the wharf to provide free relief to the victims, and also solemnly promised that "the disaster will not be extinguished, and the fish will not be sacrificed"......
Of course, Ren Zhongyuan was very excited, in addition to his vicious methods, this Chen Xingzhi was definitely a lucky star - just give himself the credit for exterminating the pirates, and now the great credit for helping the victims is also under his own jurisdiction!
This is definitely a good thing for the ancestral tomb to smoke from the green smoke, and when the time comes, I will repair a few more letters, and ask the court to help me with a few good words in the same year, I am afraid that I will be able to soar from the ground.
He now completely treats Chen Xian as a treasure in the palm of his hand, and he is a little cold to Mi Yu for a while.
At this time, it was the third day of exterminating the Qingpu pirates, even if the county magistrate repeatedly retained, but Chen Xingzhi, the chairman of the board who had just participated in the listing ceremony, returned to his heart like an arrow, and without hesitation, he took his family and friends and stepped on the return carriage.
The reason why he is like an arrow is because Lu Xiaochai is sick.
This weak woman, after waiting for herself late at night that night, was actually infected with the wind cold, but she was reluctant to disturb her lover, and even refused to let the maid grab the medicine for fear of being discovered, so that it dragged on for two days, until her face became more and more pale and her walk was shaky, and she was discovered by the busy Chen Xian.
Since she left the city of Hangzhou, she has been running one after another, and then because she is worried about her lover, she can't think about tea and dinner, tossing and turning, she is already weak, where can she bear such mental and physical pressure, so she was sick by the wet and cold sea breeze in that lonely night......
Shanghai County is not only dilapidated in this era, but also does not even have a decent hospital, and it is inevitable that Lu Xiaochai will feel uncomfortable staying at Xu's house all the time, so Chen Xian hurriedly fed her a few doses of medicine, and immediately took her back to Hangzhou.
Lu Xiaochai's cheeks, which were originally as white as jade, were becoming more and more white at the moment, and she had just taken the medicine, and she had just had a little more energy after the fever had just subsided at the moment.
She sat up straight with her white hands supporting her body, looked at the nervous lover with a slight frown, and whispered: "Official, it's all the fault of the concubine, and the concubine's body is not angry......"
The more she blamed herself, the more worried Chen Xian became, and she hated to slap herself a hundred or ten times in a row - everyone has been sick for two days, and you see each other every day, and you don't even notice it!
If it weren't for Lu Xiaochai's severe burning last night, he walked unsteadily and almost fell, I'm afraid he wouldn't have found it until now! Fortunately, after feeding a few pairs of decoction last night, her complexion was slightly better, otherwise she would have been to blame.
"Little hairpin!" Chen Xian took her hand, looked into the woman's eyes, and said word by word: "You have to remember that in this world, nothing is more important to me than you. ”
"You're sick, that's the biggest thing in front of me! I can ignore any pirate shipping or fishing refugees! ”
"So, take care of your body, please don't worry about me!"
His words were completely from the heart, and every word almost popped out from between his teeth.
Lu Xiaochai listened to these words, she was stunned for a while, she only felt that she was crispy and numb from her back to the back of her head, she had always been the man in front of her from her own point of view, she wanted to help, but she couldn't get in, so she could only try not to disturb him......
"Okay?" Chen Xian slowed down his tone and asked gently.
"Uh-huh......" Lu Xiaochai pursed her lips and hummed softly, and then two lines of tears slipped down her cheeks from her eyes.
In the other carriage, there was someone who was also like an arrow.
From time to time, Mi Yu lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside, as if he wanted to judge the distance between this place and Hangzhou by the saplings on the side of the road that had just sprouted.
"Brother Mi, it's still early, I've just walked halfway ......" Fan Dingbo tugged on Mi Yun's sleeve boredly and said, "Let's not talk about something?" You followed him to the island to catch pirates, what did you see? ”
Mi Yu turned his head, smiled a little embarrassedly, and then glanced at Su Xinqi, who was holding his arms and closing his eyes, before he pondered for a moment, and said lightly: "There are winds and waves on the sea, there is darkness that cannot be illuminated by light, and there are powerful ghosts who love human blood day and night......"
"What?" Fan Dingbo suddenly became interested, and asked in amazement: "Ghost? ”
Mi Yun took a deep breath, this time he followed Chen Xian to Songjiang, which really had a huge impact on his almost solidified heart.
He never imagined that there would be a big fight for a bite of steamed buns, let alone that a fisherman who lived by the sea would be hunted by pirates for owning a decent fishing boat.
These are all verified by the magistrate's responsibility, and there is one thing that makes him convinced of Chen Xian's words from the bottom of his heart - those miserable pirates who seem to have been stung by wasps will even make a special trip to the surrounding coastal villages to prostitute women from time to time.
These pirates called this behavior "stepping into spring." ”
And it will be "finished" after the spring.
The ugly behavior of these people is not far behind the evil ghosts who go out day and night, and choose people to devour, and even more disgusting.
Maybe it's really only what Chen Xian said, only the light refracted by the steel blade can cleanse these darkness......
Mi Yun sighed, and then thought of the little affection between Chen Xian and Lu Xiaochai that he had seen more than once, and for a while he thought of the Xiangyun girl who could always make her heart happy.
How could a woman like her fall into the red dust of the Qinglou?
When Mi Yun thought of Xiangyun's smiling appearance, he felt the warmth in his heart rise, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and the woman's crisp and pleasant call seemed to sound in his ears.
After returning to Hangzhou this time, I am afraid that I will not be able to stay for a few more days......
I have been away from the capital for too long, and if I don't go back, I am afraid that I will cause some unnecessary trouble, and it should not be easy to deal with.
In fact, Mi Yun himself didn't realize that he had changed a lot, and once upon a time, he didn't even want to provoke the slightest trouble, so how could he deal with it?
