The boat traveled to Tongxiang and Jiaxing all the way to the Sū Zhōu Wharf, but seeing that the Sū Zhōu Wharf, which had been in a state of depression before, had returned to its prosperity and bustle, it was no different from many of the wharves they had passed before, and it was difficult to imagine the situation more than a year ago. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

Ye Zhiqing and Zhou Qi stood side by side on the deck, and when they saw the place where they landed, they smiled: "I really didn't expect it, I thought I was going to be buried in Sū Zhōu City." ”

Zhou Qi had heard her story a little, but the details were not very clear, only that she had a relationship with his eldest brother. Hu Niu and Song Kui were both witnesses of the war, especially Hu Niu later separated from Ye Zhiqing, and now she has tears in her eyes when she mentions it.

"Girl, when you were captured by the Japanese Kou, I cried and ran back, and Uncle Song also said that he was going to save you, but he was seriously injured. If it weren't for General Zhou Shao, the slave would have the heart to die. ”

She mentioned Zhou Hong, only because the matter was urgent at that time, and in the end, Zhou Hong escorted Ye Zhiqing all the way to escape, and returned safely from Rongshan Island, and she was really grateful to him in her heart.

Zhou Qi heard about her eldest brother for the first time from the mouths of the people around Ye Zhiqing, she quietly looked at Ye Zhiqing's expression sideways, and saw that her eyes seemed to be melancholy, and she didn't know what she thought, and finally showed a shallow smile: "Yes, thanks to him!" ”

This sentence seems to be full of endless love and sourness, so that the young Zhou Qi can feel a little helpless and reluctant.

She secretly guessed in her heart that Ye Zhiqing might have an unforgettable old affection for her eldest brother, but she pretended to hear about it for the first time: "Is Sister Ye talking about Major General Zhou of Mingzhou?" ”

Since Ye Zhiqing left Mingzhou, the people around her have taken care of her mood, and no one has mentioned Zhou Hong anymore, that is, passing by today, Hu Niu blurted out happily, regretting it as soon as she said it, and she was careful of her look, seeing that she was not too sad, she quietly let go of her heart.

"Aqi knows him?"

Zhou Qi opened his mouth and stammered, wishing that he hadn't mentioned his eldest brother. It's not good for her to admit it now, and it's not good to deny it. Fortunately, Ye Zhiqing relieved her: "Also, there is probably no girl in Mingzhou City who doesn't know General Zhou, and since Aqi got on the ship in Mingzhou, it's not surprising to know General Zhou." She chuckled: "I don't know how he's doing now?" ”

Zhou Qi hated his eldest brother's stupidity and stubbornness at the moment, why was he casually deceived by his mother and believed it?

Ye Zhiqing didn't seem to have to ask about Zhou Hong's recent situation, and asked himself: "Now that Haihe Yanqing has not met pirates along the way, he should be doing well." She smiled apologetically at Zhou Qi: "My head hurts a little, go to the cabin to rest, Aqi, please take care of yourself." ”

After Ye Zhiqing entered the cabin, Hu Niu pulled Zhou Qi to the side and avoided her, and begged her in a low voice: "Miss Aqi, the slave maid has something to tell the girl." Fang is a slave and maid is too talkative, she shouldn't mention General Zhou, if my girl mentions General Zhou in the future, I hope that Miss Aqi will act as if she didn't hear it, don't talk to her about General Zhou, so as not to make my girl sad. ”

"Why is that?" Zhou Qi suddenly wanted to know how the people around her thought of Zhou Hong after Ye Zhiqing was humiliated by Mrs. Zhou.

Hu Niu's expression was very awkward, and it took a long time before she said, "If I tell Miss Aqi, you must not say it." My girl knew Major General Zhou, and the Major General was very good to my girl. It's just that...... Anyway, the two of them can't be together, so it's good that the girl doesn't mention Major General Zhou, so as not to make my girl sad. The girl has finally gotten better lately, and she can sleep soundly, anyway, don't mention it, the girl must remember! ”

Suddenly, Zhou Qi's heart was quite moved, she even felt guilty about Ye Zhiqing, she always felt that she clearly recognized Ye Zhiqing, and Mrs. Zhou treated her badly, she had to help her, and she had to hide her identity, which was really a bit embarrassing.

Zhou Qi hesitated left and right, and wanted to find an opportunity to confess this matter to Ye Zhiqing, but she didn't know that she hadn't found a good opportunity, but when the boat passed through Danyang, something happened in the middle of the road, so that she never found a chance to be alone with Ye Zhiqing.

On that day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and the passenger boat had only been out of Danyang for two hours, heading to Zhenjiang, but I saw a person floating in the river from a distance above the river, holding a driftwood, dying and asking for help from the passenger boat.

The boat boss originally refused, but Ye Zhiqing was standing at the bow of the boat enjoying the scenery, and when he saw the man asking for help, he beckoned from afar, so he asked Song Kui to take the silver to find the boat boss, and ordered him to put down the boat and fish the person up by two good hands in the water.

Ye Zhiqing solved the troublesome matter of the sick Jingyue for the boat boss, and she was very grateful to her. It's just that I saw the people in the river asking for help, but I was a little reluctant, just because this waterway in Jiangsu is known as the Cao Gang Salt Gang Fighting, and there are murders from time to time. They do the ships of the passengers, but they don't want to mess with them.

With the silver to sell, in the end, he was reluctant to let the people under his hands go to catch people. After the people fished it up, they lay on the deck and spit water, a knife on their back was extremely deep, and they didn't know how long they had been soaked in the river, and the edges of the wound were slightly white.

Song Kui stepped forward and turned the person over, Ye Zhiqing took a closer look, and was suddenly startled
