After breakfast the next day, Han Ji left the dining room first to take things away from Haizhu, and before leaving Beijing, he specially packed five large boxes of medicinal materials and brought them over, most of which were high-grade medicinal materials from the treasury in Fuzhong.

He pondered that Haizhu's family lived too close to the sea, and the medicinal materials were all moved over, and if they were not stored properly, they would be easy to mold, so he asked Dr. Mu to divide the ten-day supply, and the rest was stored in the General's Mansion, and he sent it to her every ten days.

After saying goodbye to Admiral Han and Madame Hou, Haizhu led Changsheng through the courtyard and walked out of the gate.

"Can I bring the two wooden boxes I brought back from Kyoto into the car?" She asked before getting into the carriage.

"It's all moved, it's okay if you forget it, you can just get it next time."

"That's not going to work, it's going to break if you put it aside for a long time." Haizhu curled the corners of his mouth, and said proudly: "You can't guess what I brought back, I ate venison soup when I lived in the hot spring village, it was very delicious, so I asked the owner to buy me two smoked deer legs, I want to bring it back to Dongzhu, Fengping and Chaoping to taste." ”

Han Ji was silent for a moment, he got on his horse and walked on the side of the carriage, and said with some guilt: "You went all the way to Chang'an with me, I didn't entertain you well." ”

"I've been in the hot springs for nearly a month, and I've enjoyed it, it's pretty good." Haizhu leaned against the car window and looked out, and said with a smile: "I know the road with you on a trip north, and when I sell bird's nest and save money, I will buy a merchant ship, and if I am hungry at that time, I will follow the original route to the north." ”

"You want to buy merchant ships?"

"Well, I don't make money with silver in my hand, so I'll buy a boat and rent it out first. When Dongzhu, Fengping, and Chaoping grow up, if any of them wants to go out and run the boat, I will take the boat back again, and our sisters and brothers will do business together. Haizhu was squinted by the wind, her life was too moist, she was reluctant to leave home, she could make money from the sea, and she was not willing to go far and toss herself into a ronin who was not at home.

"How much silver is missing?" Han Ji asked, "If you're in a hurry, I can partner with you to buy a boat and lend it to you." ”

Haizhu smiled slightly, shook his head and said that he was not in a hurry.

Han Ji was a little anxious, he couldn't figure out her attitude, far and near, like a wisp of wind blowing from his hand, he could feel it, but he couldn't grasp it, let alone dare to grasp it, for fear of holding it and being empty.

Out of the city, the speed of the carriage and horses increased, the horse's hooves galloped up, the man with broad shoulders and narrow waist pulled the reins and leaned over slightly, his slender and powerful legs held the horse's belly, the salty sea breeze lifted the tail of his hair, and the man on horseback looked sassy and heroic. Haizhu poked her head out openly to admire, and this energetic appearance made her want to learn to ride a horse.

Han Ji glanced back, her gaze was innocent, she didn't dodge or dodge, and he swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.

He's not sure how she feels about him, but he's sure she's not interested in starting a family at the moment, so he'll keep it to himself, and when she can like him through his skin, he'll show his heart.

When the carriages and horses arrived at the wharf, the people boarded the ship first, and the soldiers on board came down to carry the luggage. The boat had just been washed, the water stains on the board had not dried, and the smell of the sea had replaced the smell of horses.

Changsheng happily stepped on the stool and leaned on the side of the ship to watch the sea, occasionally running to the bow to see the helmsman holding the sails, and occasionally to the stern to watch the waves splash. Han Ji sat on the second floor and stared, not stopping him from running around.

"Aren't you afraid that he will fall into the sea and be scared?" Haizhu asked.

"There are so many people on the boat, if he falls, he will be fished up again, so as not to be frightened, he will have to be familiar with the water sooner or later." Han Ji stretched out his hand and said, "You must know that when he grows up, he will go to sea to suppress bandits and kill people, and he will overcome whatever he is afraid of." ”

Haizhu didn't ask, she thought of her second uncle, he probably thought the same way, thinking that Chaoping was going to go to sea to fish when he grew up, he was afraid of the water first, and then overcome this emotion, and when he encountered trouble at sea in the future, the fear would be lighter, and the chance of survival would be a little more.

Lunch was eaten on the boat, and when I was tired of running for a long time, I had eaten and slept well, and I woke up and was almost at Yongning Wharf.

There are dense fishing boats moored in the bay, the smell of the New Year is still there, the fishermen are still resting at home, those with many relatives visit relatives and friends, and those with few relatives eat and drink at home to nourish fat and grow meat.

When the official ship docked, Haizhu jumped off the boat briskly, and happily greeted the familiar guards.

Han Ji followed behind with his nephew in his arms, and nodded when someone greeted him.

The soldiers on the ship tied the wooden boxes and hooked them off the boat with a flat pole, and the four people carried eight wooden boxes as small servants to follow behind Han Ji.

"What did you load? Brought so many boxes with me. Haizhu asked.

"Clothing, food, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and things that children like."

Haizhu was silent, this posture was like going back to her parents' house, and all aspects were taken care of.

Walking on the street, the streets are deserted, the restaurants are still closed, the tavern is full of people, the guy who welcomes the guests was stunned when he saw Haizhu, and reacted enthusiastically: "Little boss, I haven't seen you for a long time, where did you go?" ”

"I followed the major general to Kyoto for a trip."

"That's good, is Kyoto bustling?"

"It's prosperous, but I think it's better for us to be in Quang Nam." Haizhu grinned, "Send me a jar of rice wine when you're free, you're busy, I'll go back first." ”

Before she entered the alley, she met someone she knew again, and the other party asked her about her whereabouts with concern, and Haizhu stopped for a moment.

Han Ji took his nephew and waited quietly, and when someone greeted him, he smiled and nodded.

"Second uncle, do they all know you?" Longevity asked.

"They'll know you later, too."

It was not early, and most of the people sitting in the alley had gone home to work for dinner, and only the children were still playing in the alley.

Chaoping was playing hard, and suddenly he was pushed and stumbled, he pushed back, and said fiercely: "What are you doing? Want to fight? You wait, I'll call my second sister to come. ”

"Your sister, your eldest sister is back."

Chaoping turned around, and when he saw the smiling person coming over, he was stunned for a while, tears fell down, and he cried with a whimper, and the more he cried, the louder he became.

"Who cried? Why do I sound like a tide? Dongzhu strode out and asked with a stiff face, "Which of you bullied my little brother?" ”

"This girl, like an old hen pecking at the bar, I'll go out and have a look." The woman at the door put down her chopsticks and walked out, but before she got out of the door, she heard Dongzhu crying too, she hurriedly ran out, thinking that it was the baby's father who beat Dongzhu.

"Woo woo-" Dongzhu hugged Haizhu and wiped her tears.

Haizhu was a little sour, she covered the back of Dongzhu's head, smiled at the neighbors who walked out of the door, and whispered: "Okay, don't cry, they're all big girls, and they're not afraid of people laughing." ”

This sentence worked, Dongzhu swallowed her cry and wiped away her tears, stood up straight and said, "Sister, you are back, I thought you were abducted." ”

Haizhu pulled Chaoping back and said, "Didn't I ask the subordinates of the General's Mansion to report the news?" ”

"Who knows if he's real or fake." After that, Dongzhu turned around and glared at Han Ji fiercely, blaming him, her sister left home for a long time one after another because of him.

"Just come back, come in." Grandma Qi put her hand on her eldest grandson's head, telling him to quickly wipe her tears and stop crying, and she said to her neighbors, "I'm disturbing your dinner." ”

Greeted Han Ji again: "The young general is also here." ”

Han Ji smiled embarrassedly, he didn't seem to be very popular in this family.

The wooden box was placed in the courtyard, and the soldiers went out first with their poles.

"This is the nephew of the major general, called Changsheng, the same age as Fengping." Haizhu first introduced, "Admiral Han was injured on the battlefield a few years ago, and he was in danger, so I went back to Beijing with the major general to see him. Fortunately, he survived, we left Beijing together in Laba, and when we came back, the road was closed by heavy snow, and the river was frozen, so it was difficult to hurry, so we came back late. ”

Grandma Qi's face changed, she said "oops" twice, and said, "You should go over to visit together, Admiral Han has accepted you as a righteous daughter, this is your filial piety." ”

Haizhu nodded, "Yes, I should make it clear." ”

"It's these kids who went to listen to the commentary, and when they came back, they were cranky, and the news of the major general's return to Beijing came a year ago." Grandma Qi hugged Dongzhu and deliberately shamed her, saying, "She scared herself into crying." ”

Dongzhu was embarrassed on her face, but she insisted on holding her head high, why did she cry? And there is no shame.

"I brought you a lot of gadgets, which can be regarded as compensation for abducting your eldest sister." Han Ji interjected with a smile, and he pushed Changsheng out, "Go and follow...... Play with them. ”

"We Fengping were born in May, how many months does our longevity last? Which of the brothers is older and who is younger? Grandma Qi asked.

Han Ji: "...... You can't be judged by age, you can't be brothers, and you can't call your name. ”

"What do you shout at me?" Dongzhu asked.

Han Ji glanced at Changsheng and winked at him, "This is your aunt's sister, you call sister-in-law." "This aunt is a powerful one, and he can't afford to offend.

Changsheng was not happy, he didn't hear it.

"Little nephew, you look so white." Dongzhu deliberately said loudly.

Chapter 134: Dinner

Dongzhu glared at her, she pursed her lips, obediently put away the thorns on her body, and said to Changsheng: "Teasing you, we are not related, you can call me by my name, my name is Dongzhu, this is my eldest brother Fengping, younger brother Chaoping." ”

"My name is Longevity."

"You weren't in good health as a child?" Dongzhu asked.

Changsheng nodded, and heard that he came out of his mother's womb with a disease, and before the full moon, his body was full of needle eyes, and his father gave him this name.

Han Ji saw him talking with Haizhu's three younger siblings, he turned his head to see Qi Lao San carrying a basket and preparing to go out, he got up and asked, "Third uncle, where are you going?" Grocery shopping? ”

Qi Laosan was frightened by his third uncle, when did this person become so polite?

"There is no food at home, we eat simply, I asked him to buy a piece of meat and come back." Grandma Qi said.

"Don't bother, there's no fire at home yet, right? We went out to eat. "When I came back from buying meat, I still wanted Haizhu to go into the kitchen and smog it on the fire, Han Ji didn't want her to be busy with meals when she arrived home on a boat for a day. He tried his best to persuade the family to go out to eat, and even turned against the guest as the main treat, trying to show himself without a teacher.

"I went to call Shen Sui, before he asked me to have a treat, I went back to Beijing that night, and this meal has been delayed until now. One person is also a table of dishes, and you used to eat together. He said to Grandma Qi.

"Okay, then go out and eat." Haizhu spoke, she washed her face and said: "It's time for him to invite him to dinner, I left with him and missed our family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”

"Then you clean up first, I'll go to the restaurant to arrange, and call Shen Sui by the way." Han Ji walked out and said, "Changshou, you are here, and I will go to the restaurant with your aunt later." ”

Changsheng didn't raise his head to answer, he was familiar with Haizhu, and with her, he was not restrained in this strange place.

Haizhu opened the box to see what was inside, two boxes of clothes, one box of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, one box of nourishing medicinal materials, one box of children's favorite things, and the last box was apples...... She took one for the smaller ones, and he didn't know when he bought them, but they were all fresh and well hydrated.

"Is my mother still in Redstone Village? Did she stay in Yongning during the Chinese New Year or did she go back to her hometown with Uncle Yu? Haizhu asked Dongzhu.

"She didn't go back with Pingsheng, that person went back." Dongzhu said.

"Call her tomorrow, I brought two smoked deer legs from Kyoto, stewed tomorrow, everyone eats together." Haizhu asked Qi Laosan to make buckets of water, she soaked a deer leg first, and stewed it tomorrow morning.

"Why didn't you see my third aunt?" Haizhu asked.

"I'm coming back......" As he was talking, there was movement outside, and Bei Niang came in with a wooden cart, and the three basins on the wooden cart were empty.

When Bei Niang saw Haizhu, her face was full of surprise.

"Third aunt, have you gone to sell braised vegetables? Wow! Do you have such a big belly? Haizhu's face was incredible.

Bei Niang smiled, she touched her belly, and with her movements, the hem of her clothes hung down, and the shape of her belly became more and more obvious.

"It's been almost six months, and I am expected to give birth at the end of April." Grandma Qi said, "When you are at home, you feel that day by day is slow, and after two months, it will pass in a blink of an eye." ”

"Let's go out when everything is packed, so as not to make the major general wait." Second Uncle Qi spoke up, "Don't worry about it at home anymore, I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have something to say." ”

The family went out neatly, and before they took two steps, they saw two fat cats coming out of the neighbor's house with their tails cocked.

"Cats!" Changsheng squatted down and Mimi screamed, "What a fat cat! ”

"In my family, they eat fish at all, eat at home and go to the alley to hunt wild food, and go to the beach with us to eat oysters in the morning, how can they not grow meat." Dongzhu said, "You two are at home to watch the door, we went out to eat, and we will come back in the evening to bring you meat to eat." ”

Haizhu sighed twice, and after only two months of not seeing each other, the two cats grew fat and oily, and the cat was only half a year old, and they had a big belly.

Walking out of the alley and into the street, the night stalls have already been set up, the long wooden planks built on the street are full of people, and the vendors who fry tofu, grilled oysters, grilled fish on the iron plate, grilled leeks, and grilled meat are busy and sweating.

Haizhu bought him a plate of fried tofu, the tofu was packed in shells, she saw that he was eating vigorously, and said, "If you are not in a hurry to leave, you will eat at my house tomorrow, and I will make barbecue and roast octopus tomorrow, and if you want to eat grilled fish, you can also grill fish, oh, and shrimp and crab." ”

"Wait until I ask my second uncle."

In the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, Han Ji and Shen Sui stood by the window and talked, and when he saw a group of people walking on the street, he patted Shen Sui and said, "Haizhu is here, let's go down." ”

When he went out, he said to Xiao Er: "Make a quiet corner for me on the first floor, and we will have dinner in the lobby on the first floor." ”
