Chapter 251: Departure
Chapter 251: Departure
"Alright, alright." Fu Qiuning was afraid that Jin Fengju would reprimand the children, so he hurriedly glanced at Jin Zhenyi, and when he saw him, he immediately understood the meaning, and shouted: "Yes, yes, Daddy, Auntie, let's go to the cabin to have a look, I am so old, I haven't been on a boat yet." β
One sentence amused Jin Fengju and Fu Qiuning, thinking to himself how big has this little guy grown? I'm embarrassed to say this, some people have never been on a boat once in their lives. So when he came to the second floor of the ship, Jin Ming pointed out everyone's cabins one by one, and when a few children went in to see it, they wondered, and said flatly: "Why is the room so small?" It seems like it's hard to even turn around? β
"It's nice to have a bed, a table and a chair in this room. Don't look at how many people you brought this time, there are only two ships in total, one carrying carriages and horses and half of the guards, and the rest of the people are all on this ship, you yourself say, is it still small to have such a room? β
Fu Qiuning said angrily, so Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zhenyi began to count with their fingers, rolling their eyes, as if they were trying to imagine that such a big ship would be spacious or crowded if hundreds of people were to be arranged.
Fu Qiuning didn't have time to pay attention to them, so he told him to stay in the room, and arranged for the maids to accompany him, and then turned around and returned to the deck, only to see Jin Fengju standing at the bow of the ship, only to hear a long anchor horn sound, and then after a while, the big ship slowly slid away, and the calm waves were immediately separated from the middle, and white waves appeared.
Fu Qiuning was wearing embroidered shoes at her feet, and there were some water traces on this deck, at this time, the boat opened, and she couldn't help but stand a little unsteadily, she exclaimed, and the next moment, a familiar big hand held her wrist and helped her stand firmly, but who else would it be if it wasn't Jin Fengju?
"I just said that the children are wild. Why are you coming up now? Soon the wind will be strong on the bow of the ship. Let's go back. Jin Fengju said with a soft smile, and before he finished speaking, he saw Fu Qiuning give him a blank look, and then grabbed his hand and came to the bow of the boat step by step. Look around.
The treasure ship was very huge, and because it was downwind, the speed slowly increased at this time, and the pier soon became a small black spot. Fu Qiuning looked around, and saw that although the canal was wide, she could vaguely see the groves and people on both sides of the river, and she couldn't help but sigh: "It's so good." β
"Good what?" Jin Fengju was a little curious. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair" thought to myself, girl, do you know it? I am now demoted, look at you, where do you have the consciousness of being a family member of a degraded official? However, seeing his wife so excited, he was actually very happy in his heart, after all, this trip was risky, and Qiu Ning must go with him, this is the love of husband and wife. But if she is actually worried in her heart, she will also be uneasy. At this time, seeing that Fu Qiuning had no emotions in this regard at all, he unconsciously relaxed.
A few of the children felt fresh at first. ran out of the cabin for a while, and appeared on the deck for a while, only a few maids and servants who were watching them and Fu Qiuning were exhausted. And Jin Fengju felt that there was nothing wrong with letting the children see the world more, and seeing that the maids were very dedicated, he didn't care deeply. It wasn't until noon that the little ones were really tired and finally stopped.
"Someone just cast a net and caught a few big fish, and today at noon they ate fish head stewed tofu, in the end they have experience, they actually bought tofu on the shore and brought it on the boat. I'm just going to say where did this stuff come from? It's just that in two days, unless you dock at the pier, you won't be able to eat fresh vegetables and tofu. You tell the kids not to sleep and talk about it after eating. β
Fu Qiuning thought of this ancient pollution-free fresh fish head tofu, Rao is not an avid foodie, and she couldn't help salivating at this time. So he was red, with Jin Xiunan, Jin Zangjiao, and Jin Zhenyi, who was fighting with his eyelids. It was easy for a few small ones to get to dinner, and the group came to the restaurant.
saw Jiang Wanying holding Jin Zhenxuan and Jin Xiuzhen's hands and coming over, and the three of them were all pale. Fu Qiuning was stunned when he looked at it, thinking to himself, right? Several of us are fine, but are the three of them seasick? hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and sure enough, it was so. The three of them vomited two or three times, and at this time their stomachs were empty, and they came to the dining room completely with the maids in their arms.
Fu Qiuning hurriedly asked a few people if they had eaten the medicine prepared for seasickness, and asked the kitchen to hurry up and make some light side dishes. Jiang Wanying is lying down at this moment, and she, the housewife, will be responsible.
Fortunately, the diet on the ship has always been light, and Jin Zhenxuan and Jin Xiuzhen's symptoms are milder than their mother's, but they drank two bowls of fish soup. Fu Qiuning saw that Jiang Wanying was really difficult to support, so she had to arrange the two children to her side again, so that she could take care of them nearby.
In this way, the ship went down the wind, but it took three days to arrive in Ningbo. Jiang Wanying couldn't get up at all in the past three days, but now it's easy to get used to it, and she was very happy to hear that she was going ashore. But listening to Fu Qiuning, living on the shore for two or three days, and doing a sea boat, by then I will probably be even more dizzy, it is better to take advantage of the fact that I am almost used to it now, and go to Quanzhou in one go. Although she hated Fu Qiuning very much, if it was in normal times, she would inevitably have to go against the other party at this time. But this time it was related to his body, and he was not convinced, but he knew that it made sense in his heart, so he acquiesced. So after the two ships were resupplied at the Ningbo wharf, they immediately set sail into the sea.
Although the Grand Canal is wide, it is artificial. Even on the widest surface of the water, you can see the houses on both sides of the river. However, when the ship entered the sea, it was different. From a distance, it was really the sea and the sky, and the seagull that Fu Qiuning was thinking about also appeared on the bow of the boat.
"I think you like to ride a boat, how about it? Did Wanying get better after the ship entered the sea? β
I was enjoying the gentle sea breeze at the bow of the boat when I heard a voice behind me. Fu Qiuning turned her head and saw Jin Fengju coming forward, so he naturally held her hand.
"Grandma Wan Er vomited for a few days, and today she finally got better, but she still can't be a director." Fu Qiuning explained, and Jin Fengju didn't ask any more, because the husband and wife stood side by side at the bow of the boat, looking at the sea and sky, and looking at the huge nine sails on the ship, Fu Qiuning couldn't help but murmur: "There will be a time to ride the wind and waves, and hang the clouds and sails to help the sea." Master, the concubine is here to wish you success in your tenure in Quanzhou, and return to Beijing in the coming days. β
Jin Fengju made Fu Qiuning's two lines of poetry agitate, and when he heard the latter sentence, he couldn't help laughing, and looked his lover up and down: "Why did you say such polite words?" There is a suspicion of patting horses. β
"Phew!" Fu Qiuning took a sip lightly, and then smiled: "I just look at the magnificent scenery, so I feel it, do you think I look like a person who can shoot horses?" β
The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and they were at ease with each other.
Because the wind direction is right, so five days later, they arrived at the Quanzhou wharf, everyone boarded the boat and went ashore, Jiang Wanying walked this way, and almost lost half of her life, so naturally she couldn't show off her talents like before, so everything had to be sorted out by Fu Qiuning. Fortunately, at this time, there were already local officials from Quanzhou on the wharf to greet them, and many officials came up to help at this time.
Fu Qiuning sat in the carriage, occasionally opened the curtain to look at the local customs that were completely different from the capital, at first there were no people on the avenue, and when he entered the city, it gradually became lively. She saw Jin Fengju sitting on a horse, talking with a few people dressed as military attachΓ©s, and remembered that the other party had said a few days ago that although there were rampant Japanese robbers in this territory, most of the officials were from Prince Rong's family.
Originally, Prince Rong and Jin Fengju were cautious at first, and did not show that they were forming a faction. It's just that later Prince Lie was arrogant and formed a party in the court, so the two had to work hard to prepare, until now, the emperor left Beijing to drive the expedition, the faction in the court is actually clear, and the officials of Prince Rong's faction will naturally be suppressed, but perhaps the emperor also expected this, so although the prince is in charge of the country, the power of official appointment and dismissal and military mobilization is still tightly held in his own hands. Even if Jin Fengju was demoted to Quanzhou this time, if the emperor did not agree, the prince could only stop fighting.
In the words of Jin Fengju, it is: The wind knows the strength of the grass and sees the hearts of the people for a long time. This time, Prince Lie became the prince, which happened to be an opportunity for him and Prince Rong to see people's hearts. In addition, after Prince Lie became the crown prince, he was really carried away, so the brother-in-law and brother-in-law both had a certain calculation in their hearts, and they no longer had the depressed and discouraged appearance before.
At this time, this vast group of people walked in the city, and naturally got the curiosity and guidance of many people. When I came to the prefect's yamen, I saw that this yamen was very magnificent, and the back yamen was also clean and spacious. There are dozens of houses in the six courtyards, but no one lives in them, and behind the corridor is a small garden, where the grass and trees are lush and green, and the fragrance of flowers wafts in the wind, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.
"Little Hou Ye, grandma asked the slave maid to come over and ask, is there no one living in this yamen?"
Jin Fengju dismounted in front of the corner gate, and saw a mother-in-law come over and ask. It turned out that Fu Qiuning remembered that he had seen it above, not that those prefects and prefects could occupy the Houya, but often in the house of this yamen, there were several families of officials and dependents, why was this Quanzhou prefect's yamen a little different? Therefore, she couldn't help but call a mother-in-law in the sedan chair and ordered her to come forward and ask Jin Fengju.
But when he saw the person who looked like a military general beside Jin Fengju, he was stunned for a moment, and then said nonchalantly: "Lord Jin is the Hou Ye, and it is not an exaggeration to argue that another mansion should be built." But you're the one who doesn't want to make trouble. In this case, the people in the yamen discussed it and decided to pour this yamen to your other officials and relatives to find another house to live in. β
