Chapter 315 Finale: Afterglow (II)

Originally, it was just two small boats blocking the road, and three or four big men came forward to block it, and when Gong Yuanhe took people out, more than a dozen small boats came out of nowhere in the vast night, and surrounded the boats.26dd.

The boatman panicked at this time, ran to Gong Yuanhe with a white face and said: "Master Gong, you are an official, you give a comment, this wharf is not anyone's house, why don't we have a berth?" If you really don't stop, forget it, what are you going to do with so many people around? Is it going to hijack a ship? It's a time of peace."

For the sake of convenience and safety, tea merchants will always be in groups, and it is very normal for companions to occupy each other's places. But this is not like the ordinary behavior of tea merchants. Gong Yuanhe was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard someone on the other side of the boat laughing: "This is a peaceful and prosperous era, yes, it's not anyone's dock, it's not bad, but there is always a first to come in everything, right?" You come from behind, and without asking, you are going to take the seat that we have reserved for our companions first, is this unreasonable? Since you are an official, you should be more reasonable and reasonable, brothers, don't you say? ”

Gong Yuanhe raised his eyes and saw a man in his thirties, wearing a round-necked robe with a round neck, and a bearded white face standing on one of the boats with his arms crossed, looking out of place among the men in a short fight. The man looked at himself with blazing eyes, and there was neither arrogance nor timidity on his face, but he was calm and contented, and it was obvious that he had seen the world.

The big men thundered and struck the boat with oars: "No matter what kind of official he is, when he arrives on our land, he must act according to the rules and retreat quickly, otherwise be careful and you will not be allowed to rely on the shore."

The boatman was frightened, and shouted loudly: "Someone is going to hijack the ship, and all the merchants are commenting, where is this reason?"

There were many people watching the excitement on the tea boats around, but no one dared to speak. The man just looked at Gong Yuanhe lightly and didn't say anything.

Gong Yuanhe stopped the boatman, hugged his fists and said with a smile: "This brother is right, everything is just a reason. We came from a long distance, rushed for a day's journey, in the dead of night, just thinking about the early docking of the boat to rest, seeing the berth want to dock is also human nature, after all, there is no mark on the berth, saying who left it to whom, right? ”

The man nodded, "Yes." Do you say this because you want to compete with me for this position? ”

Gong Yuanhe shook his head and smiled: "Definitely." Brother Tai just said, everything comes first and comes first, I am not an unreasonable person, since you are occupied by your companions, I naturally will not force it to occupy. It's just that I want to ask my brother, since the reason is with you, why don't you be reasonable? Don't say that the exit hurts people, you have to engage in such a big battle, and even the shore does not allow me x, from this aspect, but you are unreasonable and ignore it, and you are oppressive with power. Today I am a man, and I am not afraid of your scare, but if I am old or young, women and children, what is the difference between your behavior and that of the bully and unreasonable? ”

The man glanced at Gong Yuanhe up and down, but saw that Gong Yuanhe was wearing a simple green cloth robe, standing tall, without a trace of fear on his face, holding his head high, neither the arrogance of being an official, nor the pretense of a scholar, looking gentle and elegant, but he had a period of righteousness and majesty that could not be ignored. At the moment, he hugged his fists and smiled: "It's true that I'm unreasonable, you all retreat"

There was a sound of water, and the dozen or so boats quickly and neatly disappeared into the twilight.

Gong Yuanhe smiled faintly, ordered the boatman to start the boat, and looked for another place to dock, and then turned around to leave, but the man said loudly: "Brother Tai, please stay and dare to ask Brother Tai's surname?" ”

Gong Yuanhe said with a smile: "My surname is Gong Yuanhe." ”

The man was silent, and suddenly laughed: "The water washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't know the family brother, so I said, who is such a generous person, it turned out to be your brother Gong, don't say, you can stop in this place" couldn't help but say, so he asked someone to make way, and the boatman docked the boat to the vacant seat before.

His tone was particularly intimate, and he automatically called himself his brother. Gong Yuan and the staff around him frowned when they heard this, and Xi Cui wanted to reprimand him for being rude, who was a brother to him, a ruffian? I'm not afraid to flash my tongue

Gong Yuanhe's face was not displeased, but he turned around and solemnly saluted: "Just asked Brother Taizun's surname?" ”

The man smiled and said, "My name is Lang Kun, you don't recognize me, but you didn't suffer a loss when you called me this brother." You're going to Shuicheng Mansion from Qingxian, right? When to go to Xiangzhou? ”

Gong Yuanhe was very curious, this person seemed to know everything about him, but he didn't recognize this person. Lang Kun didn't say much, only said: "You wait, you'll know later." ”

It was dark, and I finally saw a few red lights floating from the river, and when I got closer, I saw that it was a big ship, Lang Kun smiled: "Do you dare to go with me to see what is going on?" ”

Gong Yuanhe smiled: "Why don't I dare? He hadn't done anything wrong, and there was no valuable furniture on the ship, so he was afraid that he would let Xicui talk to Ming Fei immediately, and jumped into Lang Kun's boat. Lang Kun patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "It's good."

Not to be outdone, Gong Yuanhe slapped back: "Each other, each other"

Lang Kun bared his teeth and said with a smile: "The strength of the hand is not small" He ordered someone to prop up the boat and lean towards the big ship.

When they were about three zhang away, a woman on the big boat smiled and said, "Is Lang Da in charge?" ”

Lang Kun laughed: "Who else but me?" It's just that you're late tonight, but the seat reserved for you has been given to your old friend, and you have to let the ship dock farther away."

"The deceased?" A red lantern probed over, and the one standing on the bow of the boat turned out to be Deng Jiu, who had not been heard from for several years. She is used to dressing up in Tsing Yi when she first walked the rivers and lakes, she is spirited and beautiful, and her style is better than before.

In the evening, Lang Kun set up a table to entertain the two parties, and Ming Fei and Deng Jiu sat together, both of them were overwhelmed with emotion. Deng Jiu said with a smile: "After all, I failed to become a child of the boudoir, but I still started my old business - selling tea." God is pitiful, in a few years, I have earned a family business innocently, and I have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life, and I can study with peace of mind. ”

Ming Fei said admiringly: "It's very difficult for you to wander alone, right?" We have sent men to look for you, but we have not been able to find you anywhere. ”

"I've changed my name, so how can you find out about me?" Deng Jiu smiled: "It's not that difficult. I'm used to doing this, and I'm familiar with it, not to mention that I have met many nobles in my life, it used to be you, and now it's Lang Kun. She lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, and said softly: "I married Lang Kun at the beginning of the year. ”

Ming Fei was overjoyed, and immediately poured three glasses of wine to congratulate her. Deng Jiu drank with a smile, and invited Ming Fei to bring his children to be guests next year, and talked about Shuangshou during the banquet: "I heard that he became a relative last year, I don't know how the bride is?" ”

Ming Fei said with a smile: "I couldn't leave at the time, and I didn't go to be a guest in person, but I heard that the housekeeper who went to give gifts was very gentle and generous." He is also doing well. ”

Deng Jiu sighed slightly: "Then I can rest assured." ”

It was night, and the two of them kept talking about the third watch, and they didn't eat much food, but they drank a whole jar of wine, and they didn't disperse until Gong Yuanhe came to pick up people.

Ming Fei was half drunk, leaning on Gong Yuanhe's arms, listening to the sound of the water and wind outside the cabin, looking at the crescent moon sinking in the west outside the window, thinking back to the past and present life, and was overwhelmed with emotion.

She has rarely thought about the past recently, and the faces of her father and mother have gradually become blurred in her mind, while the faces of Gong Yuanhe, Shu Mei, and Zhan Yang have become clearer and clearer. There are small quarrels in his and her lives, there will be misunderstandings, and there will be anger, but in the hearts of him and her, each other is the closest to him and the most dependent on each other, there is no misunderstanding that cannot be solved, and nothing can be more important than finding such a compatible other half in the vast sea of people and keeping him to protect him.

A lot has happened in the past three years, but overall ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
