Chapter 11: Buying a boat

Xiao Moxi is very obedient, since Bai Zehui arranged this task for him, he has been working hard and diligently using Lingquan water to irrigate the leafless, flowerless, and fruitless crooked neck dead tree about ten zhang (33.3 meters) away from Lingquan.

After a few days of being busy, Xiao Moxi was pleasantly surprised to find that although nothing else in the ring space had changed, the crooked-necked dead tree that had been irrigated by the spiritual spring water had gradually regained some vitality.

Xiao Moxi was very happy, and took advantage of Yao Yuzhi's time to help Ren Hanjun take a bath, he happily told Bai Zehui about the changes in the crooked neck of the dead tree, "Sister, the trunk of that old tree has become a little straighter, and the bark has become smooth and watery!"

Bai Zehui was also very happy to hear it.

It's good that there are changes, and if there are changes, it proves that her methods are effective.

After praising Xiao Moxi a few words, she told Xiao Moxi to continue to water the dead tree with a crooked neck with spiritual spring water.

Xiao Moxi patted his little chest and promised that he would definitely complete the task given to him by Bai Zehui.

Bai Zehui told him to combine work and rest, and not to just stare at the tree every day.

Xiao Moxi obediently responded, and then ran to water the trees in a hurry.

The corners of Bai Zehui's lips hooked up a light smile with some doting, and then fell asleep in the low voices of Yao Yuzhi and Ren Hanjun.

On the night of August 25, the thirty-fifth year of Jingping, Deng Xibin, who had a dusty face, hurried back - he had successfully entrusted someone to buy a light sailing ship with a skeleton structure, and tomorrow their group could leave this place of right and wrong by boat.

After announcing the news, Yao Yuzhi, Deng Xibin, and Deng Qin's three adults avoided the children and discussed in the hall for a while, and finally, they decided to take Bai Zehui back to Qushan Island by boat.

It turned out that during the day, Deng Qin's family had already inquired about the situation of his family with the old man who took her to the big purchase.

The old man had only one son, but the son had three daughters and two sons, and if the family set out on the run, the four adults of the family would have to take care of five children.

After all, the old man and the old lady are old, and their daughter-in-law is just a weak female streamer who does not go out of the door and has no knowledge and means.

But because of the turbulent situation and the fact that Yao Yuzhi and others are in a bad situation, they can't stay here for a long time, so the idea of choosing a reliable family for Bai Zehui is obviously no longer feasible.

And it would obviously be better for her to take her away than to throw her away at random.

After Deng Xibin raised this question, Yao Yuzhi was the first to say, "It's a big deal that Rue Xiang and I have to worry more, after all, it is a human life and cannot be ignored." ”

Deng Qin nodded again and again in agreement, "That kid is very easy to carry, and his body and bones are also good, he should be able to withstand the hard work of taking the boat." ”

Deng Xibin is not a ruthless person, so the three of them made a decision.

What they didn't know was that Mo Xi, the little ear newspaper god, almost immediately revealed the content of their conversation to Bai Zehui himself, and the heart that Bai Zehui had been carrying finally fell back into his stomach.

In the past month that she was taken by Yao Yuzhi and others to flee, although she has been short of food and drink, Yao Yuzhi and Deng Qin's have always put her in front and in their hearts.

There are also Deng Xibin, Ren Hanjun, and Ren Hantang sisters and brothers, although they haven't taken care of Bai Zehui much, Bai Zehui has clearly and clearly felt their kindness and care for her from many small things.

Being able to meet such a group of people who are kind to her, Bai Zehui feels that she must have used up all the characters in her previous life and this life at one time, so although she was as well-behaved and trouble-free as before during this time, she looked very heartless and carefree, but in fact, she was extremely eager for Yao Yuzhi to always take her, raise her, and protect her.

She even thought that if in the end, Yao Yuzhi and they still planned to give her to others to raise, then she would cry and make a fuss with Yao Yuzhi or Deng Qin, so as to express her desire not to leave them.

Although this may not necessarily change the decision of Yao Yuzhi and others, she has at least tried her best to fight for herself.

However, what she didn't expect was that before she had time to do anything, her deepest wish had suddenly become a reality, which made her extremely happy and happy.

Of course, this also made her feel more deeply the kindness and love of Yao Yuzhi and others.

Whether they gave her to someone else to raise, or risked taking her to escape with them, from beginning to end, they only considered whether the choice they made was beneficial to her, Bai Zehui.

To be able to meet such a person after being abandoned by her mother, she is really lucky!

With full joy and gratitude in his heart, Bai Zehui was carried by Deng Qin's back on August 26, the 35th year of Jingping, and left the small village where he was boarding.

In order to thank the family for their reception and hospitality, Yao Yuzhi secretly left twenty taels of silver for the old couple.

The boat Deng Xibin bought was neither big nor small, it was the kind of medium-sized boat that was particularly suitable for sailing in the river, but could also sail on board.

The three big and three small got on the boat, and Deng Xibin took the others around the boat.

Bai Zehui listened to his introduction while looking at the light sailing ship with a skeleton structure with big black eyes.

The ship's wheelhouse is at the stern, and next to the wheelhouse there is a small kitchenette and a small warehouse, the kitchen is stacked with firewood, seasonings, cooking utensils, and cutlery, and the warehouse is placed with the rice, noodles, meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits, dried fruits and spirits that Deng Qin had purchased before, as well as ten barrels of well water that they had collected from the old couple's house.

Across the deck from the wheelhouse, galley, and storehouse, there is a storage room for anchors, ropes, spare bows and arrows, sweeping equipment, etc., and a small observation room above the mainmast on deck.

Below deck, there were two lounges with separate bathrooms, one large and one small, and the three adults quickly agreed that Yao Yuzhi and Deng Qin's three children would live in the big room, and Deng Xibin would live in the small room alone.

In order to prevent accidental loss, he not only made an iron cage to hold the sachet, but also nailed the small iron cage to the wall of the storage room with several iron nails.

Yao Yuzhi and Deng Qin's both knew that Deng Xibin was a proper person, so they did not raise any objections to Deng Xibin's arrangement.

The only thing that reassures them is that Deng Xibin has never walked the route between the Cangzhou Mainland and Qushan Island.
