The matter of Fucheng came to an end, and on the way to Jiangnan, after a day of rest on the way, Cao Yi contacted a familiar ship and changed to a waterway.

Ah Xiu was a little seasick, and she rested in the cabin for the rest of the days and rarely showed up.

Sometimes when she docked at the ferry and wanted to go up and down, she wore a hat and hardly showed her face in front of outsiders except for those on the boat.

On the way, the boat came to a place called Sangzhou, and it began to rain.

The rain was heavy and continued for several hours, so Cao Yi asked the boatman to find a small ferry to rest on the shore for safety, and then left when the weather turned around.

This relied on a day and a night, and the pouring rain was pouring down, and even the river water rose a lot.

Cao Yi braved the rain to direct everyone to add reins to the ship, and when the rain did not stop at night, he moved all the goods on the cargo ship to the passenger ship to prevent accidents at night.

Ah Xiu listened to Chunliu about this, and now they can't go, taking advantage of this gap Chunliu asked her not to worry about it and take care of her body.

Recently, Ah Xiu has been seasick, and her appetite has been poor, and Chunliu feels that Miss has lost weight.

Ah Xiu nodded, asking her to pay attention to the outside and inform her in time if there was anything.

It was night, and the rain outside had not stopped, accompanied by a hula wind.

The noise outside was too loud, Ah Xiu slept unrealistically, and somehow woke up in the middle of the night.

The oil lamp in the cabin dimmed, and she turned over, and saw Chunliu lying on her side on a small bed a few steps away, asleep.

This person had a good night's sleep, Ah Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, got up and poured a cup of tea to moisten his throat.

Back on the bed, she couldn't sleep at all.

Ah Xiu folded her hands and counted them, thinking that Brother Tian's house exam had already been released, and it would definitely be no problem to pass the exam, but I didn't know how it ranked.

He shouldn't know about his departure now, according to the previous discussion, he won't tell him about his departure until he returns home from the government test.

I don't know if the father and son have returned to town, and if Brother Tian is angry when he knows that he is leaving?

The more Ah Xiu thought about it, the more she couldn't sleep, and she didn't know how long it took before she suddenly heard some noises outside.

It was the sound of the waves, as if a boat had capsized not far away.

Ah Xiu was startled, and as soon as she turned over and sat up, she felt that the hull of the boat was shaking, and an impact force surged in, knocking her directly on the couch.

Not far away, Chunliu was lying on the small bed and was not spared, because he was defenseless in a dream, the hull of the boat shook, and he directly overturned the person from the bed to the ground.

"Ugh."

Chunliu woke up all of a sudden, hugged her head and cried out in pain.

"Chunliu, are you alright?"

Ah Xiu got up and slowly went down to the ground holding on to the partition.

"Miss, don't move, Chunliu is fine."

The hull of the ship was still shaking, and although it didn't have the impact just now, it was still a little unsteady on its feet.

Chunliu rubbed her head and got up, walked over and helped Ah Xiu and said, "Slave go out and take a look, Miss don't move." ”

As she spoke, she took the coat on the shelf and put it on Ah Xiu, and then went out with an oil umbrella.

After the impact just now, the hull of the ship was slowly stabilizing, but Ah Xiu heard some shouts, and it seemed that someone had fallen into the water in the distance, and it seemed that something had happened to the ship.

Although this is a small ferry, it is already close to the river, because of the rain, before nightfall, Ah Xiu saw many merchant ships docked in this area like them.

She was still familiar with some of the flags hanging on the bow of the ship, and she didn't know who the accident was.

After a while, Harunliu returned.

She put the wet oil umbrella by the door, patted the water vapor on her body and said: "I heard that Steward Song said that there was a merchant ship upstream that capsized after entering the water, and the master's family asked for help, and everyone went over to help, and we also went to a few here." However, it is not known what happened to them, and those who used to be in the past have not yet returned. ”

Chunliu said and came over to wait for Ah Xiu to lie down, and said, "Let's sleep first, if there is anything, Steward Song will come over to inform him." ”

The Song steward she said was Song Ming.

has only been running with Song Er for a few years, and although Song Ming is not very old, he can also take charge on his own.

After the matter was clarified, Ah Xiu was relieved and continued to rest with her eyes closed.

The next day, it rained for two days and one night, and finally stopped.

Ah Xiu got up and was having breakfast, when Cao Yi came, saying that she had something to discuss with her.

Chunliu invited people in, and then pulled the door and guarded outside.

"Last night, a merchant ship overturned, and the people on board noticed in advance that although the strange cargo had been moved, the ship was completely unusable. The proprietor found out out out out that we were going to Linjiang, and he found me beforehand, saying that he wanted to take a boat with him. ”

"There are not too many goods on his side, and it is okay to squeeze to us, but the man's surname is Wei, and he is from the embroidery industry."

Before entering the Linjiang realm, he met the fiber embroidery line again, Ah Xiu was stunned when he heard it, and then asked: "Do you know who is the Wei family who delivered the goods?" ”

"Third Prince Wei."

Wei Sangongzi!

It turned out to be him, Ah Xiu was silent, nodded and said, "Let him get on the boat." And we don't have to deliberately hide our affairs, when the time comes, it's better to open it than hide it. ”

Cao Yi nodded and quickly left.

After a while, Ah Xiu heard someone talking on the shore, and then the noisy sound of people and the shouts of moving goods.

The thunderstorm had stopped outside, and the boat would move when the people were settled.

The third son of Wei came to take a boat, and Cao Yi knew that the Wei family had a very shallow status in Linjiang, so he made a special trip to vacate a second-floor guest room for him to live in.

Wei Zhou was very grateful, changed into clean clothes in the room, and went to the main hall on the second floor to thank Cao Yi.

Cao Yi saw him, and the two chatted in the hall, and later Wei Zhou also knew that they came from the southwest and went to Linjiang to develop business.

The land south of the Yangtze River is rich and rich, and to outsiders, it is full of silver, so it is naturally a good place to do business.

But the family here is already deeply rooted in business, no matter what kind of livelihood it is, it is already saturated, and it is impossible for outsiders to come in and intervene without any power and access.

Thinking that others had helped him, Wei Zhou wanted to be kind enough to remind them, so he asked them what they planned to do for a living.

Cao Yi had been instructed by Ah Xiu in advance, and he did not hide it anymore, so he went to Linjiang to open an embroidery building.

Embroidery Building?

Wei Zhou raised his eyebrows, but he didn't speak again.

Speaking of embroidery building, the embroidery line in the south of the Yangtze River is one of the best existence, now people want to open, to put it bluntly, it is a peer, how embarrassed to persuade him, accidentally the words are not quite right but cause people to misunderstand.

Wei Zhou swallowed those words, and only said that his family lived in Chaobin Street, Linjiang, and if he got into trouble in the future, he would come to him.

Cao Yi nodded, but he was thinking in his heart that he and Ben didn't need to look for it in the future, they would do the same business together, and they would have the opportunity to meet.

After drinking the two teas, Wei Zhou took his leave.

He went out to see that the sky was already clear outside, and he was about to go to the bow of the boat with his little servant, when the door of a guest room next to the main hall opened, and a little maid wearing a light blue embroidered lotus skirt came out, holding a young girl wearing a hat in her hand.
