Chapter 208: Nosy
As long as it is a human being, no matter what age you are, your troubles are different. But there are always troubles.
When I was a child, I always looked forward to growing up, and my only worry was to be controlled by adults. When I grew up, I was troubled by the fact that I couldn't meet such and such needs.
After that, you have to worry about the person you like. When the dust settles, after they get married, they worry about their children.
After having children, I look forward to them passing on the family as soon as possible, and I am worried about the reproduction of future generations.
Lian Yu, if she said that she was in Gaojia Village before, her only worry was how to fill her stomach.
Later, her worry was how to solve the natural and man-made disasters again and again.
When she finally got together with Youhuan after all the hardships, she began to worry about how her children would grow up healthily, and what kind of marriage would they marry when they grew up?
Lian Yu drooped his head with a sad face, the troubles of life are really endless!
However, in Youyu's view, all her troubles are self-inflicted.
When the child is not yet grown, you have to worry about what will happen when he grows up. When the children grow up and are not married, they should consider the children's children and grandchildren, isn't it too long-term to consider?
Such a drain on the mind is asking for trouble.
Although he thought so, he did not dare to tell the truth.
After a few people lived in the snowy mountains for half a month, they finally got tired of playing before they set off for the next location.
If you have stayed enough in the snowy mountains, you will miss the gentle water town.
If you say that the scenery is beautiful and the climate is pleasant, it is the water town of Nanjinying Song City.
The group kept a low profile and didn't want Nanjin's people to know their identities and whereabouts. They don't want to be warmly entertained, they just want to play like ordinary people.
So they rented a small bamboo raft and slowly crossed the river to the other side.
If you want to go to Yingge City, you have to rent a carriage and travel for two days to get there.
In fact, there is an easy way, that is, rent a big boat and follow the river all the way to the river side of Yingge City.
It is said that it is about the same width and depth as the river.
The water in Yingge City leads to the river, so their gates are all erected above the water.
I heard that there is a record of this city in ancient times, saying that there was a prince who dominated the city. The place where he reigned was a poor and remote place, with a perennial drought and a lack of water.
So his life's pursuit is to find a place with plenty of water and good scenery. So he set his eyes on Yingge City.
The prince was also very brave, fighting all the way from north to south, all the way to Yingge City.
Just when everyone thought that this prince would definitely dominate Yingge City and become the overlord of this side.
But when he attacked Yingge City, he was stumped by the waterway.
He was born in an arid place, so he didn't know how to swim.
He hired a master who was very good at the water and took him to attack Yingge City. He went to attack the city gate by water, but in the middle of the fight, he was knocked over by stones thrown from the city wall, and he tumbled into the water.
According to historical records, he regretted it when he was splashing in the water. said that he should not find a master who is very good at water, he should find a master who is very good at swimming to teach him how to know water.
So that he would not drown, and the master who was in charge of the boat climbed to the shore well.
This incident has always been a joke.
Later, many self-proclaimed princes used him as a warning to tell them that they must learn a few more skills, such as swimming.
In this way, it will not end up being drowned by a generation of princes.
When Lian Yu and the others arrived outside Yingge City, they found that the city gate was wide open. On the waterway, there is a board about ten meters wide.
The board was topped by four stout iron chains, which were chained to the city walls.
If the city gate is closed at night, the pole inside is used to control the shrinking iron chain, and the board about ten meters wide is withdrawn as the city gate.
The carriage drove directly into the city gates.
But when they entered the city, they found that the roads on both sides of the road were more spacious if they were on horseback. If they were driving, there was a carriage on the opposite side, and they could not avoid it.
So they chose to leave the carriage and walk into the city.
At this time, there were boatmen in the middle of the waterway shouting and inviting them to take the boat.
It turned out that in the city, horse-drawn carriages were not the main means of transportation, but boats became the main means of transportation. Almost every household has a small boat sailing in the river.
Lian Yu and a few children are bouncing around to take a boat.
Sanjin muttered that he would just run with the shore.
Lian Yu was puzzled, what kind of temper is this Sanjin? Now the subordinates are really getting more and more difficult to bring, and their temperament is more difficult to serve than the master.
Youyu Fang endured it, smiling and not speaking.
It wasn't until they got on the boat that he spoke. It turned out that Sanjin didn't know when, but he actually suffered from a seasickness.
According to Sanjin himself, his problem was caused by seeing that Rujiu always vomited during pregnancy.
This matter was laughed at by Shi Jian and them for a long time, after all, it was like wine that was pregnant, and it was not Sanjin, which kind of morning sickness reaction did he harm?
But some things are just so bizarre that you can't explain them.
So a few people sat on the boat leisurely and enjoyed the scenery along the road. And Sanjin ran with the boat on the shore bitterly.
In a few moments he was running profusely sweating and sticking out his tongue.
There was a child playing in the water on the side of the road, and when he saw Sanjin's appearance, he laughed with his waist in his hands. Laughing at Sanjin like the pug of Wang Er's house next door.
Sanjin was so angry that he frowned coldly, if he hadn't seen that the other party was a child, he really wanted to go up and compare with him.
The river is lined with shops of all kinds.
When passing by a teahouse, Lian Yu heard the sound of silk and bamboo. There was a playful woman singing something, babbling.
"The tone of this singing is very good, but I can't understand what it is singing." Lian Yu followed with a low humming tune.
As soon as You Huanfang wanted to open his mouth to explain to Lian Yu, he saw a person flying out of the air, to be precise, throwing himself into the river.
With a thud, the figure fell into the water.
Several of them could see that it was a woman. And with the sound of falling water, the drama also stopped abruptly.
Then they saw a few thugs with sticks running out of the teahouse. They stood by the river, looked at the place where the woman had fallen, and beckoned for someone to go down and salvage it.
You know, everyone in the South can swim. So throwing yourself into the river is only suitable for landlubbers in the north
The girl chose this way, either because she wanted to escape for her life, or because she wanted to kill herself.
In either case, looking at the vicious thugs, you can see that the woman was not willing.
Lian Yu wanted to be nosy, and it came out immediately.
She stood at the bow of the boat, shouting at the thugs. "Hey! What are you doing here? Is it forced to be a prostitute?!"
As soon as she shouted, the thugs glared angrily at the ship.
The boatman who rocked the boat immediately sighed and was so frightened that he couldn't do it. "Oh, that's unacceptable, girl, you'd better get into the cabin quickly. Let's not mess with them, we can't afford to mess with them, don't be nosy, or we'll get into trouble."
As he spoke, he shook the boat faster and faster, trying to get out of this troublesome place as soon as possible.
