Li Xiaoqi stood up as he spoke, and Danyue made a look, Danyue took out two delicate small silver bills from her purse and put them on the table, Li Xiaoqi thanked the middle-aged man with a smile: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, please have a cup of tea." The middle-aged man thanked him for a long time, and sent Li Xiaoqi and his party out of Yinfeng Building before returning. Li Xiaoqi walked a few steps, and ordered a little sullenly: "Go back and rest first, take a nap in the afternoon and then go to the dock." ”

Danyue and Haitang waited for Li Xiaoqi to clean their faces, changed into homely clothes, Luo Yan took the tea and handed it over, watched Li Xiaoqi drink half a cup, thought about it and asked with a smile: "The fifth master wants to do the pearl and jade business?" ”

"Well, I used to think about it, but I don't want to it now." Li Xiaoqi replied sullenly, Luo Yan blinked a few times inexplicably, and Danyue hesitated and asked, "Xinyang Lu family, is it Lu Erye's family?" ”

"Well," Li Xiaoqi put down the cup, leaned back and fell on the couch, and Danyue looked at Luo Yan with a blank face and explained: "It's the Lu family of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the master of Liang Wangye is the previous Heavenly Master, and the second master Lu who often talks to our girls is the youngest son of the current Heavenly Master's family." Luo Yan suddenly asked in surprise: "I know Second Master Lu?????? It turned out to be his family's capital! Li Xiaoqi lazily listened to the three of them chattering excitedly and in surprise non-stop, this business can't be done, not only as they said, the face is not good-looking, this Lu Lao Tianshi went north to stay in Kaiping Mansion for more than ten years more than ten years ago, isn't it just to earn a stable future for the Lu family, for such a family, she has to avoid three rounds, this is the way to self-improvement, in the place where there is already a division of power, and want to share a spoonful, and want to be stable, you can't help but be cautious everywhere.

Li Xiaoqi sighed in annoyance, lay down and ordered, "I'm a little tired." Luo Yan hurriedly raised his finger to his lips to signal Danyue and Begonia to silence, and Danyue lightly took the bed quilt out and covered it for Li Xiaoyi.

After lunch, Li Xiaoqi slept again, woke up lazily and lay on the bed for a while, packed up, it was already Shen Zhengshi, a few rented green cloth sedan chairs had already waited at the door, a few people got on the sedan chair, and slowly went to the port direction, Lukang Town was built according to the port and dock, and it was only two or three quarters of an hour in the past, the sedan chair stopped, and the wild goose helped Li Xiaoqi get off the sedan chair, this is a dock for shipbuilding and repairing ships, Li Xiaoqi was not close, standing in the distance and carefully watching a few ships that were about to be repaired, and he had a number in his heart, Then he got into the sedan chair again and commanded him to go to the wharf.

In the evening, the wharf is more leisurely than busy, the sailors on the big sea boats in the deep water dock are talking and laughing loudly, the ferry boats and fishing boats near the shore, the boatmen and fishermen who are covered in black charcoal are drinking rice wine comfortably in front of one or two plates of fried small fish or small clams and shrimps, etc., and groups of children are barefoot, whistling and laughing, jumping from the boat to the shore, and then jumping from the shore to the boat, rushing over, and then rushing past. Li Xiaoqi lifted her skirt slightly, smiled and avoided the whistling children, walked slowly from this end of the dock to that end, and looked at the busy housewives on the shore while scolding the naughty children, while neatly mending the nets, drying dried fish and seaweed, Li Xiaoqi stared at the busy housewives fascinated for a long time, and instructed Danyue to call Nanning over and order: "Go and buy some pickled fish, shrimp and sea vegetables with them, if there is eel, buy more, don't bargain." Nanning smiled, beckoned a guard and a few palanquin drivers, jumped off the bluestone road of the wharf together, and looked for those fishermen and fisherwomen to buy dry goods.

Luo Yan, Danyue and Begonia looked at the endless sea in front of them in fascination and marveled, Li Xiaoqi did not urge them, by their exclamation and discussion, Haitang happily jumped to Li Xiaoqi's side, pulled her to point to a particularly sturdy and magnificent ship parked in the dock in the distance, and smiled: "Girl, look at that boat, how beautiful!" I don't know whose family it is, and it's also the one who transports the goods? It's too luxurious! Li Xiaoqi looked at the big ship carefully along the direction of the begonia, and said with a smile: "That's not transporting goods, it's transporting people, this family is rich enough, let's go over and have a look." Begonia hurriedly greeted the wild goose and the light moon, the four of them along the rough bluestone road by the sea, closer to the big boat, in front of the big boat, a ferry boat is busy loading jars and bamboo baskets of different sizes, a small guy with clear eyebrows standing on the shore, one hand on the waist, one hand pulling and commanding: "?????? Be careful with that jar! That's the lord's osmanthus wine, it's not okay to shake off the taste! You! That has to be put right, it's soup, it's all soup, if it leaks, how can you eat it? Alas, that basket can't be pressed ??????"

Li Xiaoqi laughed when he saw it, and motioned to Begonia while laughing: "That's Second Master Lu's little maid Luoyu, go over and ask him, why is he here, Second Master." Haitang ran forward two steps, and did not come close, and shouted after a dozen steps: "That falling jade!" Where's your second master? Without waiting for Luo Yu to answer, a strange cry came from the deck of the luxury ship in the distance, and Lu Feng jumped up from the rocking chair, jumping up and down like a monkey and screaming: "Little Wu! Is it Little Five? How are you? It's me! It's me! You Second Brother Lu! Fast! What about the ship? Hurry up and release the boat! Fast! ”

The four people on the shore opened their eyes wide, looking at Lu Feng who jumped up and down, fell and jumped up, Luo Yan leaned back and laughed loudly, Danyue and Haitang covered their mouths and giggled, Li Xiaoqi clenched his hands into fists on his chest, and his chest hurt from Lu Feng's graceless jumping feet.

The ferry boat is still two or three feet away from the shore, Lu Feng jumped up from the bow of the boat, jumped to the shore, and the small ferry boat shook like a leaf in the wind, almost turned into the water, Lu Feng jumped to Li Xiaoyi's side in two steps, stretched out his hand to pick up the hat on Li Xiaoyi's head and looked at it carefully, laughed and said: "What are you talking about, there is nowhere to find it when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!" ”

"Didn't you reply to Xinyang? How is it here? Li Xiaoqi didn't answer Lu Feng's words and asked, Danyue looked at Lu Feng's half-wet shoes, took a few steps back, pointed to Lu Feng's shoes and signaled Luo Yu, Luo Yu hurriedly asked people to send clean shoes and clothes.

"I went to Yuanfeng City to find you to resign, who knew that you weren't there at all, ask the surnamed Su, he didn't say whether he was alive or dead, ask Shui Shi, he didn't know ??????"

"Who is the Water Stone?" Li Xiaoqi interrupted Lu Feng's words and asked,

"It's the second master of Shuiyan Shui." Lu Feng explained casually, Haitang looked at Li Xiaoyi, who was a little stunned, and hurriedly took a half step forward and explained in a low voice: "The second master is nicknamed Stone, and no one has called it for many years!" Haitang muttered while giving Lu Feng a blank look, Lu Feng had no one else in his eyes, so he just pulled Li Xiaoqi to complain: "You said that you are gone, I don't know if you live or die!" ”

"Phew! You don't know if you're alive or dead! Li Xiaoqi spat out bad breath, and Lu Feng smiled: "I didn't mean that, I didn't see anyone alive!" A dead face surnamed Su, everything he says is a half-dead appearance, and he doesn't let you talk much, as soon as I ask you where you are, he turns his face and does it! I can't beat him! ”

"Did you hit him?"

"Nope! Don't mention this, and then I had to leave! ”

"Driven away by him?" Li Xiaoqi leaned at Lu Feng and asked, Lu Feng coughed a few times: "I am tired of seeing his dead face, and then I sneaked back to Kaiping Mansion from Zhengcheng, but I still didn't find you, I saw Shui Sheng, Shui Sheng said that you are fine, I put a little heart, and came out of Kaiping Mansion again, and entered Wu from Huaiyang, I originally planned to go back by boat, but now I don't need to, where did you go?" ”

"In Taiping Mansion."

"Huh? Taiping ?????? Oh! Got it done? Lu Feng went from being stunned to understanding, but in the blink of an eye, Li Xiaoqi smiled and praised: "Much smarter, okay!" I was about to go back to Kaiping Mansion. ”

"The surname Su is really not a thing, how can you let a girl's family go to a wolf's pool and tiger's den like Taiping Mansion!" Lu Feng gritted his teeth and scolded hatefully, Li Xiaoqi simply took off his hat, turned his head to look at him and asked with a smile: "That's because I'm amazing, others can't do as well as me!" While speaking, Luo Yu had already taken clean shoes, Lu Feng lifted his feet, changed his shoes and socks from Luo Yu, stomped his feet comfortably, looked at Li Xiaoqi and asked, "Where do you live?" What are you doing in Lukang? ”

"It's right in town, what else can you do here? Look at the sea, watch the boats, eat fried crabs, and clams. Li Xiaoqi squinted at the sea, the sea breeze blew, her skirt was flying, and she said with a smile, Lu Feng frowned and looked at her suspiciously: "This is a place to eat seafood!" The sea of Lukang is muddy and yellow, what is there to see? Would you like to take a boat back? ”

"Can you get to Peking by boat? Which port is it anchored at? Li Xiaoqi glanced at Lu Feng and asked, Lu Feng smiled: "Jinmen Port, go back to the south, that is, go around more than a thousand miles." ”

"More than 2,000 miles, come by sea, come back by land, come back and forth!" Li Xiaoqi corrected: "When are you leaving?" ”

"Don't leave, I originally planned to go back to my home, and I came out to look for you after telling my mother, but now that I find you, I won't go back, let Luoyu go back, just give a message to my mother." Lu Feng waved his hand and said casually, Li Xiaoqi frowned and asked, "Didn't you go back this time to get married?" Just Luo Yu can say a word? You don't go to look at people? ”

"That's the eldest brother's idea, let him decide!" Lu Feng hurriedly explained, Li Xiaoqi turned his head to look at him, and changed the topic: "It's late, I have to go back, you ??????"

"I'll go back with you, there is a family in the town that makes Wang Kee oysters fried, and they taste excellent! Have you eaten it? The fish sauce and braised crab paste made by Yuehailou also taste very good, let's go to Yuehailou and ask Wang Ji to send a plate of fried oysters, by the way, have you ever eaten sea urchin noodles? It tastes better than crab noodles! Lu Feng was full of interest, Luo Yu's face did not change, and he didn't ask much, he hurriedly turned around and went back to ask someone to pack up Lu Feng's things.
