Gui Mingyue followed the direction pointed by Jin Qi'er, and indeed saw a human body floating on the misty river.

The boatman and the servant hurriedly salvaged it, dragged it to the shore and saw that it was a man.

It's not a silver pendant.

Jin Qi'er couldn't help but sigh dejectedly, Gui Mingyue also looked at the vast river with some hopelessness, it has been three days, and she can't see anyone again, it seems that she is more than lucky.

"Yue'er, come and see, this person still has breath." Yu Hongbo flipped the man over, took out a black label from his placket, and said, "It's from the Cao Gang." ”

Gui Mingyue stepped forward, only to see that this man was middle-aged, with a strong figure, and his exposed chest was full of scars, and he observed what he was wearing, it was actually a Xuanyi woven of Shu brocade silk, it seems that this person's status in the Cao Gang should not be low.

Yu Hongbo and Gui Mingyue looked at each other, and they both came up with one word from each other's eyes: Help!

A young man was ordered to go to a nearby town to find a doctor.

Yu Hongbo pressed a few times on the man's chest and abdomen, and the man spat a few mouthfuls of river water in a coma. Gui Mingyue thought about it and asked Jin Qi'er to bring the burden, and found a bottle of the best gold sore medicine that Yu put in before leaving, stepped forward and used a dagger to cut open the man's robe, and sprinkled it on several swollen wounds that had been blistered.

The man was awakened by the stinging pain of the gold sore medicine, and forced himself to open his eyes slightly, and saw a little girl with fair complexion, frowning and pursing her lips, who was giving him medicine, and suddenly fainted in front of her eyes and fainted again.

When he woke up again, the doctor had already cleaned and bandaged his festering wounds, and then poured ginger water and decoction on him.

The middle-aged man struggled to get up, first looked at the group of people in front of him with suspicion and scrutiny, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he slowly hugged his fists towards Gui Mingyue and Yu Hongbo: "Two benefactors, the grace of saving lives, Jiang will remember it in his heart!" ”

"Strong men must not be polite, it is important to recuperate." Yu Hongbo helped him lie down, and Jin Qi'er brought a decoction to feed him.

The middle-aged man's name is Jiang Yu, he is the second leader of the Cao Gang, this time he went out to escort the goods, unfortunately he was ambushed by the water bandits, and after being injured and falling into the water, he drifted all the way to the shore and was rescued by Gui Mingyue.

Jiang Yu looked at the environment, and it was actually in the cabin of a ship, but the boat stopped on the shore and did not move forward.

"I don't know where the two benefactors are? Where are you going? Stopping here, but having a hard time? "There is no shop in front of the village here, there are few people, and it is fortunate that I met them, otherwise Jiang Yu would be injured and die even if he drifted here without anyone to rescue him.

Yu Hongbo sighed and said, "In Xia Yu Hongbo, a person from Jiangling, this is my cousin, surnamed Gui." This time, my brother and sister were going back to my hometown in Jiangling, unfortunately they met a water bandit in the river, and one of my sister's maids fell into the water for the savior, and my sister hoped that this maid would be blessed and survived, so she parked the boat on the shore and waited,...... Hey"

Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a loyal servant and righteous lord!" As he spoke, he removed the dark green scarf from his neck and tied it to the bow of the boat.

Seeing this, Gui Mingyue knew that he was using his own way to contact his organization, so he didn't ask much.

Everyone was lamenting that this water bandit was endangering the township, only to see that the fog on the river had gradually dissipated, and a fleet of ships with green flags waving was galloping forward.

"Second master, we can find you, thank goodness." It turned out that after Jiang Yu disappeared, the Cao Gang sent a fleet to search for themselves, and they disappeared for three days, waiting to return to their lives in despair. I happened to see the dark green scarf fluttering on the bow of the moored ship, and galloped over.

With the support of his subordinates, Jiang Yu said goodbye to Yu Hongbo and Gui Mingyue with his fists, and said loudly: "Two benefactors, thank you for your great kindness, if you use Jiang's place in the future, you must go to the soup and go to the fire!" "The Cao Gang takes the lead in the foreign senses, not to mention this life-saving grace.

Yu Hongbo and Gui Mingyue glanced at each other, and also hugged their fists and said politely: "Don't be polite to the second master." After speaking, the two were about to return to the cabin, set off and left, and after waiting for three days, Gui Mingyue knew that there was no hope.

"Miss, Miss!" A hoarse and weak voice came from the boat behind the Cao Gang, and a slender figure staggered over.

It's a silver pendant!

Jin Qi'er shouted in surprise: "Miss, it's a silver pendant!" She's not dead, she's back. ”

Gui Mingyue nodded and said, "I saw it" There were tears in his eyes.

Yin Shen'er ran to Gui Mingyue and knelt down, Gui Mingyue stepped forward and hugged her head, and the master and servant suddenly cried with joy.

"It's okay, it's okay," Gui Mingyue asked worriedly: "What did you experience after jumping into the river, and how did you get to the Cao Gang's boat?" ”

Yin Shen'er stabilized her mood and said slowly, it turned out that she grew up in Ezhou by the Yangtze River since she was a child, and naturally knew the nature of water, so she originally planned to jump into the river, hide under the boat, and wait for the water bandits to leave, and then get on the boat.

Unfortunately, the water here was turbulent and there was a whirlpool underwater, and she was caught in it, fainted and didn't know where she was taken, and woke up on the boat of the Cao Gang.

It turned out that it was the Cao Gang who saved her.

Gui Mingyue didn't expect that she and her cousin saved the second leader of the Cao Gang, and the Cao Gang saved her maid, everything seemed to have its own providence in the dark.

"Hahaha, this is really fate." After Jiang Yu heard all this, he couldn't help laughing: "Brother Yu, Miss Gui, since you and I are both destined people, why don't you follow the will of heaven and worship each other, and be commensurate with brothers and sisters in the future!" "Jiang Yu has walked the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and he is the most informal.

"Big brother!" Yu Hongbo called kindly.

"Little sister meets big brother." Gui Mingyue also smiled and fell generously.

"Okay, good, hahaha" The more Jiang Yu looked at the pair of little brothers and sisters, the more comfortable he felt, and he couldn't help laughing out loud again.

Seeing this, the two maids, Jin Qi'er and Yin Shen'er, were really happy for the young lady.

Escorted by Jiang Yu all the way, the group successfully arrived at the location of Dongting Yunmengzhou.

"Wow, Miss, this Dongting Lake is really extraordinary." Jin Qi'er swept away the haze of the past few days and shouted happily.

"Yes, I heard that there are several excellent scenery in this Dongting Lake, such as the autumn moon in Dongting, Yuanpu Guifan, Pingsha and falling geese, the sunset of the fishing village, and the snow in the river sky......" Gui Mingyue was also in a good mood, and counted carefully: "It is the middle of winter now, and the autumn moon and the falling geese are difficult to appreciate, and there are a few other things that I have the opportunity to see." ”

The two little maids' eyes were shining when they heard this.

"Since my sister wants to enjoy this beautiful scenery, how about we moor in Dongting for a few days?" Jiang Yu has many brothers in the family, and when he got a sister for the first time, he naturally had to be carefully spoiled.

Yu Hongbo couldn't help but smile and shook his head, but although he passed by Yunmengzhou many times, the beautiful scenery of this Dongting Lake was not a chance to see, and it was good to moor for a few days this time, just to relax the heartstrings that everyone had been tense for a few days.

In the past few days in Yunmengzhou, the three brothers and sisters have had a good time, and in the evening of this day, the sky is beautiful and there is fine snow.

Yu Hongbo invited the cook to cook on the ship, and Jin Qi'er and Yin'er built two stoves on the deck, the red clay stove was used to cook wine, and the cast-iron kettle stove was used to cook tea, which was the famous local Dongting Biluochun.

Dongting Lake has fertile aquatic plants, fresh fish and shrimp, and the Dongting chef appreciates cooking fish the most, and I heard that he can make 42 kinds of delicacies made of whole fish.

The umami was brought from the back kitchen to the cabin, the wine in the stove gurgled upwards, Gui Mingyue has never paid attention to the rules, Yu Hongbo has not paid attention to his travels all year round, and Jiang Yu, a person from the rivers and lakes, does not need to mention it. It is served on the table with maids and maids, and the food is happy and hard.

Gui Mingyue especially loves a dish made of small, scaleless white whitebait like jade and snow, steamed with shrimp and white meat, and the food is full of fragrance, and from time to time you can accompany the two brothers to drink a cup or two.

Although the snowflakes are small, the effort of a meal also makes the two sides of the strait white, the distant mountains white, and the white river with a few ices, and the intuition is open in front of you, boundless and endless.

Seeing this grand scene, except for Jin Qi'er, who was still unaware of the hard work, everyone stopped speechless for a while, and silently looked into the distance to admire.

The snow gradually stopped, and Jin Qi'er went to prepare rice paper and charcoal for me. Gui Mingyue had a flash of inspiration in her mind, walked up to the deck, and commanded.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but laugh and thought to himself, his little sister is really like those young ladies who are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and when she sees this scene, she will inevitably have to splash ink with her pen again.

Yu Hongbo didn't think so, he lived at home for more than three months, and he also had a general understanding of Gui Mingyue's temperament and preferences.

The easel is made by a craftsman in the morning, in order to go out to carry it conveniently, the process has also been improved, and it is made into a simple and easy-to-carry shape, and even the drawing board is folded, so that you can receive the baggage and carry it with you.

Yin Shen'er watched Jin Qi'er skillfully arrange everything, and secretly remembered it in his heart.

Jiang Yu was attracted by this strange thing at first, and then saw Gui Mingyue holding a charcoal pen, facing the thick rice paper, and drew it up, and when he stepped forward to take a closer look, he saw that Gui Mingyue had drawn ten things on the rice paper.

You can vaguely see the shadows of the sun, the moon, the clouds, the snow, the mountains, the towers, the sails, the fishermen, etc., but they are not always the same......

"Little sister, what are you drawing?" Jiang Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.

After Gui Mingyue finished drawing the last stroke, she turned around and said, "Big brother, do you know that my family is a head shop?" ”

Jiang Yu nodded and said: "In the past few days, Brother Yu has told me about your two families, sister, you are really unusual, you can support a shop, and you can calmly deal with the pickling methods of your peers, big brother admires!" He gave a thumbs up.

Gui Mingyue laughed, and said with a smile: "If the eldest brother praises again, I'm afraid Yue'er will be proud." ”

"Hahaha, Yue'er is proud, tell me what this painting has to do with your family's head shop?" Jiang Yu asked.

Yu Hongbo also came to join in the fun, and before Gui Mingyue could answer, after reading it, he touched his chin and said, "I'm afraid it's a new jewelry style that Yue'er came up with, right?" ”

Gui Mingyue nodded: "Exactly, this sun, moon, clouds, snow, mountains, towers, sails, geese, gulls, and fishermen's patterns...... It is the inspiration I got from this Dongting Lake view that these patterns can be used for ear crotch, hairpin, hairpin, step rock, jade pendant, ring and so on. ”

As soon as Yu Hongbo heard it, he felt that this was a very good idea, and if he could show the pattern of the ten scenes of the cave to his father, he would be very happy. But this is my cousin's hard work, can she cut her love?

Gui Mingyue has the wisdom of two lives, how can he not see through what his cousin thinks, and immediately said: "I will give these patterns to my grandfather as a meeting gift, cousin, do you say that his old man will like it?" ”

Yu Hongbo was overjoyed, this little cousin was really a good person.

Although Jiang Yu didn't know the preciousness of these pattern drawings, he saw Yu Hongbo's expression so excited, and he also realized a little bit about it.

At that moment, the three brothers and sisters continued to drink a few glasses.
