Chapter 268
On the Yongzhou wharf, Fu Yimeng personally helped Ye Zhiqing, who was wearing a hood, to get out of the carriage, and the Fu family coachman who was driving the car next to him secretly said: How could the third prince ever be so attentive to a woman?
At that time, there was morning light hidden in the sky, Fu Yimeng pointed to more than a dozen ships full of grain, grass and medicinal materials, and said: "This is a ship I sent someone to rent in Yongzhou in recent days, and my Fu family's ships are in the field too late to rush back, and now they can only be rented first." γLatest chapter reading. After six or seven days on the boat, when it was too late to sail, a convoy came to pick it up, and according to my grandfather's wishes, I rushed to Anbei as fast as possible. β
Men always have a kind of strategizing and calmness in their own fields, especially Fu Yimeng is different from the rich businessman who is full of brains, it is when he is in the prime of life, and he still exudes elegance.
Mr. Fu's mood for matching his son and Ye Zhiqing was too urgent, and he talked to Ye Zhiqing two days ago: "Meng'er has lost his wife for many years, and he refuses to renew the strings, God is so old, and there is no mother to take care of him, which is really worrying." β
She comforted her ancestor at the time: "Your old man is too worried, why is Senior Brother Fu still worried about not being able to marry a good woman?" It's just that fate has not yet arrived. β
Fu Yan responded meaningfully at the time: "Yes, Xu is fate has not arrived." β
Seeing Fu Yimeng's ability to do things, Ye Zhiqing felt that Fu Yan's worries were a little redundant, and told Fu Yimeng a joke: "The ancestor is also a child's temper, and there is no one to talk about it, so he actually told me about it, where can the senior brother worry about the ancestor." β
Fu Yimeng smiled and sighed: "Senior sister, this is a senior brother." Speaking of which, Senior Sister has been alone for many years, why didn't she think about finding a father for Sister Jin? β
As soon as these words came out, he always felt that Ye Zhiqing, who was wearing a hood, was silent for a moment, and then laughed as if laughing at himself: "Where does I look like a good wife and mother with such a lawless personality running around?" Ordinary people don't dare to marry! β
This is true.
But Fu Yimeng didn't say something in his heart: Aren't there any exceptions?!
However, the two of them have not yet reached the point where they have nothing to talk about, and he is embarrassed to say such explicit words, so he no longer jokes about her, and when the two are about to get on the boat, they have a face-to-face with the person who came down from a boat that has just docked on the dock.
When the person on the other side saw the two of them, his eyes swept casually, and he walked past them to the city, but Ye Zhiqing stopped, and even Fu Yimeng noticed the abnormality, and said strangely: "What's wrong with junior sister?" β
She didn't say anything, and waited until she got on the boat before she said, "Senior brother, last time you said that the person who sold the immortal paste came back to Yongzhou City recently, do you know when that person will come?" It was none other than Wei Miao, who had a few entourage, who had just met her.
The Cao Gang's business was from Lianghuai to the capital, but she didn't know when it would expand to Baiyue.
"That's just a few days, there is no exact day. What's wrong? β
"I just wanted to ask." She exhaled a breath of turbid air into the sinking river, and suddenly felt a little bottomless in her heart, hoping that she had thought too much.
The tiger girl didn't know that Sister Jin was missing until noon.
The little girl made her clear to her early last night: My mother didn't take me out of the house, I'm angry, don't wake me up tomorrow, I want to sleep a lot!
Hu Niu had no bottom line in front of Sister Jin, not to mention conniving at the child's lazy sleep, and she didn't think there was a problem, so she let her sleep until the middle of the day, and lunch was on the table, before knocking on the door of the side room.
"Sister Jin is up, hungry, right? I made your favorite whitebait steamed egg."
Even when she knocked on the door, the little girl inside just didn't move, and at first she laughed and scolded: "What a stubborn temper, and her temperament is quite big!" "If you knock for a long time, you will feel that something is wrong.
The door was bolted from the inside, she panicked for a while, and hurriedly went outside to call Lai Daying to come over, and tried to open the door, only to find that people went to the empty building, and the little girl left a letter with her dog crawling words: and the fourth brother accompanied the mother to Anbei.
"Where did you take Sister Jin when the master left?" Lai Daqing was dumbfounded.
"Who's to say it isn't?" The tiger girl can't wait for the little girl to slap her in front of her eyes: let you mess around and run around!
The couple was panicked, and ran to Su Ming to discuss with Sister Jin'er's book, but he was also taken aback: "It's been more than three hours since the master left, and now even if it's a horse, I can't catch up with it, I'll write a letter, send someone to catch up along the waterway and hand it over to the master, let's look everywhere, maybe it's this little girl who left a book to scare us." β
He can only comfort everyone like this.
Sister Jin'er, who turned Liu Ji on her back, was nesting in the third ship with her diehard follower Hu Si'er and Fu Tianyou at the moment in the third ship hired by the Fu family to load grain.
Since the boat boss was employed by the Fu family, he should not have brought other people with him, but yesterday he couldn't help but beg the young man surnamed Hu bitterly, only saying that his parents were dead in the family, and the family property was taken by the uncle in the clan, so he had to take his two younger brothers to relatives and friends, and spent money on this boat.
Sister Jin is still young, pretending to be a little boy at most attracts people to look at it twice, thinking that this brother is just a little beautiful.
The three of them were wearing coarse cloth clothes, and followed the ship boss to get a dark and damp warehouse in the bottom bilge of the cargo ship, and they were afraid that if someone from the Fu family recognized Fu Tianyou on the ship, they stayed in the cabin until the ship docked on the sixth or seventh day and was to be transported to Anbei by land, so they got off the ship.
In fact, they were too worried, the countless buddies of the Fu family, as well as the executioners who were out on the dart, really had the opportunity to meet the little young master in the Fu family, and only Fu Yimeng's personal entourage was around.
Su Ming, Lai Daqing and others in Yongzhou City couldn't find Sister Jin'er, and the guys sent out took a boat to chase them, but before the letter arrived, the fleet hired by the Fu family had already returned.
Ye Zhiqing, Fu Yimeng and others were shocked to find the three small ones when the ship docked, and the dock workers began to unload food and medicinal materials from the ship and load them onto the convoy waiting on the dock.
Sister Jin and Fu Tianyou were originally fighting with the idea of going to Anbei with a stubborn fight, and the fleet was easy to mix, but the convoy was not easy to mix. Hu Si'er suddenly made a caravan with the rhetoric of fooling the boss of the ship, but he was dragged in front of Fu Yimeng.
Fu Yimeng deceived the reason in a few words, and sent someone to find Sister Jin and Fu Tianyou who were hiding on the dock, and his face suddenly turned black into the bottom of the pot.
"Who told you to run around on your own?" Sister Jin, he is not good at scolding, but Fu Tianyou is his own son, if it weren't for the steward who was waiting around for a reply, he would have liked to beat his son, so that this kid could have a long memory.
Sister Jin moved behind Hu Si'er without a trace, trying to hide herself, exposing Fu Tianyou alone under her father's nose without any righteousness.
Fu Tianyou quibbled: "Sister Jin is crying so much, she doesn't want to be separated from the master, so she begs me to take her out to find the master!" β
Sister Jin popped out of her head from behind Hu Si'er, and accused him with righteous words: "Nonsense! Obviously, Brother Tianyou wants to follow Uncle Fu out to play and take me with him! β
Fu Yimeng was almost annoyed by these two shameless little goods, laughed, and learned to throw the pot at each other!
Don't look at Fu Tianyou and Sister Jin'er's age, these two little things have a lot of hearts, they unite when they do bad things, and when they are caught, they start infighting.
"Since you are here to accompany Sister Jin to find your master, my father will send you to your master's room." Fu Yimeng straightened his face and sent his son and Sister Jin to Ye Zhiqing's side first, and he still had to stay at the dock to keep an eye on people loading and unloading medicinal materials.
Fu Tianyou whispered: "Father" was driven away by his father waving his hand as if chasing flies.
Fu Yimeng is a thoughtful and proper person, knowing that it takes more than half a day to load and unload medicinal herbs and grain on the dock, and in the future, he will have to travel to the night to stay, and the conditions will be very difficult, so he sent someone to book an inn at the dock early, and after arriving on the shore, he sent Fu Yan Lianhui and Ye Zhiqing to the pre-booked inn to bathe and rest.
Ye Zhiqing took a hot bath and was sitting in the room wiping her hair, when she saw Sister Jin and Fu Tianyou who were sent over, she was dumbfounded.
"Why are you here?" It literally fell from the sky.
Sister Jin stepped forward with a shy face: "Mother, I miss you, so I came with Brother Tianyou." β
Fu Tianyou was still in the low pressure of being disgusted by his father, and he couldn't lift his spirits, and he didn't have the energy to care about Sister Jin'er's throwing pot, so he stepped forward to greet Ye Zhiqing.
Ye Zhiqing's face darkened like Fu Yimeng unexpectedly: "How did you guys get here?" β
Hu Si'er knew that he would be scolded for doing such a thing, but he had always been very conniving with Sister Jin, and knelt down at Ye Zhiqing's feet with a plop: "Madam, it was the little one who took Sister Jin and the little master of God to come by boat, begging Mrs. Don't punish Sister Jin, if you want to punish the small one!" β
Ye Zhiqing stood up, pointed at Hu Si'er and scolded: "Are you afraid to punish you because I don't dare to punish you?" β
When Fu Yan came over, Ye Zhiqing was holding a bamboo stick and beating the palms of the two children, and did not reduce the punishment because of the age difference between the two, and each received 20 bamboo sticks.
Sister Jin cried out "wow" when her mother went down with a bamboo stick, but Ye Zhiqing didn't stop because she cried so much, she spanked her two hands when they were swollen, and she finished twenty beatings meticulously.
Sister Jin has never been beaten by her mother when she grows so big, no matter how naughty she was before, she was only scared twice, she has a tiger girl to protect her, Ye Zhiqing is a peaceful person, she has turned a blind eye to her naughty on weekdays, but today she is extremely strict with a straight face, and Sister Jin doesn't even dare to beg for mercy.
When Fu Tianyou heard the master say that each person had twenty strokes, he was still lucky, but Ye Zhiqing came up and beat Sister Jin'er, and he was merciless, and when it was his turn, he couldn't wipe his face and beg for mercy, he was a stubborn child who wanted to face, and he was beaten with twenty strokes, and his face was full of tears.
Fu Yan listened to her beating the children hard outside the door, and he couldn't wait to push open the door and protect the two children behind him, but he had always been sensible, and he couldn't do anything to spoil him, so he could only hide outside and eavesdrop.
Lian Hui also teased him: "It's distressing, right? When I was distressed, I hurried in to protect it, I didn't expect this to be a ruthless girl, it's too late to regret it at this time! But it means that he wants Ye Zhiqing to do Fu Tianyou's stepmother's thing.
In the room, Ye Zhiqing finished beating the child and shouted: "Do you know today, why did I beat you?" β
The two children looked at each other, originally thought it was no big deal, but they traveled far away for the first time in their lives, but they didn't want to leave their parents, and they didn't want to leave their parents, and a piece of filial piety could also move their parents, right? They also used to think in the cabin of their parents after seeing them surprise appearance, who knew that it was completely different from what they imagined, they first ate a meal of fried meat on a bamboo board when they saw noodles, it was so sad!
Sister Jin cried with tears on her face and accused her mother: "You hate me and beat me when you see me!" β
Fu Tianyou felt that Sister Jin was naΓ―ve, and at the same time tried to maintain the dignity of his little man, and carefully said: "The master is angry that we ran over without the consent of the adults. He also justified their behavior: "But we are also kind-hearted, and we just want to be with our master and father." Under Ye Zhiqing's stern eyes, she inexplicably felt weak, and couldn't help lowering her head.
