The ship moves in the wind, a thousand miles a day.

They were on the ship day and night, and they had already reached the boundary of Quanzhou.

Yu Mingzhu stood on the deck and looked to the east, and could even see the endless sea in the distance, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, although there were hundreds of ocean-going ships at home, she had never seen the sea.

The port of Quanzhou is very large, the port where ships are docked alone is already hundreds of zhang wide, the blue-black East China Sea is calm and vast, and there are several ships returning from sailing in the distance.

Tens of thousands of dock workers and traders and hawkers combine to create a very complex picture of the market.

The first thing that catches your eye is people, and there are all kinds of people gathered here, such as the Semu people, Kunlun Nu, and even the people of the Western Regions.

Large and small warehouses and inns crowded the narrow port of Quanzhou, and the roadside was full of all kinds of goods, as well as slender men waiting for work.

Yu Mingzhu and a few people came down, but they did not alarm the locals of the Yu family, so there was no Yu family at the port to answer.

However, several disciples of Governor Han came to answer, Yu Mingzhu glanced at Gu Huaiming, and Gu Huaiming helped her get off the boat.

As soon as I got off the boat, I felt the smell of seafood.

Suzhou people don't like to eat seafood with a strong taste, while Quanzhou is the opposite.

I don't know if the official ship paid a little little money, but it docked at a very bad port, and there were many fishmongers all at once, and there were fish all over the place.

Yu Mingzhu covered her mouth and nose, she was a delicate lady in such a place, and she really looked like a pearl buried in the soil.

"What did you bring me here for?"

Gu Huaiming smiled and said nothing.

Yu Mingzhu joked: "You won't trick me into selling me in such a place." ”

Gu Huaiming shook his head, and the two of them walked into the muddy and dirty port path with Governor Han's disciples.

The port of Quanzhou is very large, but the most prosperous place is only in the port, and the old town built around the long and narrow port area is a gathering area for some fishermen and workers, and there are also large and small casinos and money houses, and there is also a very characteristic gang structure.

It's somewhat similar to the slums in Suzhou, except that the slums here are larger and more complex.

When they arrived at an extremely dilapidated casino, although Yu Mingzhu was wearing a veil, she could also see that she was a graceful woman, and those ill-intentioned eyes made Yu Mingzhu a little scared, and she grabbed Dye Dong's hand.

Dye Dong whispered: "Miss, my uncle shouldn't really sell us." ”

Yu Mingzhu quenched: "What nonsense, how could my uncle sell me, if I want to sell, I will definitely sell you first" Saying that, Yu Mingzhu really had this kind of doubt in his heart.

Several scholars took Yu Mingzhu into a port casino.

The casino was smoky and overcrowded, Yu Mingzhu even saw a woman inside, she quickly walked through the crowd with her head down, and followed Gu Huaiming and them up to the second floor.

A scholar pushed open the door, Yu Mingzhu entered, and she saw a person in this dirty and narrow room.

Yu Wansan raised his head, and a smile appeared on his originally serious face.

"Mingzhu, long time no see."

Yu Mingzhu rushed to Yu Wansan and threw herself into his arms, she cried and said, "Grandfather, you're back!" ”

Yu Wansan's big hand full of scars caressed Yu Mingzhu's hair.

"Wang Zhi is in Quanzhou Port, so I have the opportunity to meet you here."

Yu Mingzhu looked at Yu Wansan, even though there were thousands of words in his heart, but at this time, it only became one sentence.

"Grandfather, I will definitely keep the Yu family."

A hint of comfort flashed in Yu Wansan's eyes, and he whispered, "I came this time to let you check on something." ”

Yu Wansan looked at the other people in the room, and Gu Huaiming left with interest.

Yu Wansan took out a letter from his arms, Yu Mingzhu opened it and looked at it, the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

He whispered, "Wealth can sometimes be a curse, but at the same time, it is one of the few things in the world that can be relied on......"

Yu Mingzhu thought of a hundred possibilities, but she didn't expect it to be this thing.

"I thought Yun'er was going because of the root of childbirth, but after I came to Quanzhou, I accidentally found that this was not the case."

Inside the envelope is a beaded flower, which has gradually yellowed, but the hairpin is very exquisite, and it also has a fragrance.

This is the pearl flower of Yu Mingzhu's mother, Yu Yun.

"It's very likely that your mother was forced to die by your father's own hands."

Yu Wansan thought that Yu Mingzhu would be excited, but he didn't expect her to just frown.

Yu Mingzhu's clenched fist loosened slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "What evidence does grandfather have?" ”

Yu Wansan replied softly: "Quanzhou Lin family cloth shop, back then, your mother's personal girl took two pieces of body silver to Quanzhou, married and had children, and her husband's surname was Lin." ”

"Granddaughter knows."

Yu Wansan sighed, and he said, "Do you know why I chose Gu Huaiming for you." ”

With Yu Mingzhu's identity, as long as the person she marries is not as rich as the Yu family, then her husband will inevitably be like Qian Jiang, giving birth to a different heart.

"Because my grandfather wants me to use Gu Huaiming's power to save our Yu family."

Yu Wansan laughed, and he looked at Yu Mingzhu lovingly and compassionately.

"My silly pearl, a man in this world will not allow his wife to pass over him, and if your father is like this, won't his husband be like this? The reason why I chose Gu Huaiming is because he never thought of being the son-in-law of the Yu family for a lifetime, he is not rare to all kinds of financial rights of my Yu family, he is just a guest with you after all. ”

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Yu Mingzhu's mouth, but no one knew this fact better than her.

"I know, grandfather."

Yu Wansan took a deep look at Yu Mingzhu, and then said: "In this world, only I will not harm you, because you are my only bloodline in this world......"

Yu Mingzhu was silent.

Yu Wansan patted her shoulder and whispered: "I'll tell you all about it, my time is running out, if you stay any longer, Wang Zhi may be suspicious." ”

Yu Mingzhu grabbed Yu Wansan's hand, and a thousand words turned into one sentence.

"You have to be careful."

Yu Wansan pushed the door and left.

Yu Mingzhu thought about it in the house for a long time.

After Yu Mingzhu came out of the room, he found that Yu Wansan and the others had already left, and the scholars who brought them here sat aside, and the leader of them said: "Brother Huaiming, Master Han is waiting for the two of you in Haichao Tower. ”

Gu Huaiming said: "Brother Ziran will lead the way." ”

The black-faced scholar named Ziran led several people out of the casino, apparently unprepared for a carriage.

Yu Mingzhu's legs hurt a little when she walked, and she couldn't help but pull Gu Huaiming's sleeve.

"Husband, my feet hurt."

Ziran opened his mouth and said: "Mrs. Sister-in-law hold on for a while, Haichao Tower is not far from here, and it will be there immediately." ”

As soon as the words fell, they arrived at a three-story building on the seafront, which was very imposing, very different from the dilapidated and dirty surroundings around them.

I saw a plaque hanging on the three-story building, and the word sea tide was written on the plaque.

This place doesn't look like a green house or a restaurant, but I don't know what kind of place it is.
