Chapter 13

The red sun is about to hang, and the bright afterglow is poured on the river.

Hanzhu sat by the window, watching the smoke rising from the shore. The five or six-year-old child returned home together. Seeing a boat, the children would point at the onlookers curiously and say something she could not hear.

"Sister, we're about to arrive at Suzhou Pier?" Ningzhu lay on the couch and asked indifferently.

After three days of sailing, she could only stay in this small cabin. Of course, she was not used to it and wanted to go out and take a look, but her sister refused.

Hanzhu nodded, walked to her sister and sat down, touched her head and said, "Yes, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Ningzhu said flatteringly: "I want to eat soup buns."

The boat stopped several piers, and there were various food stalls on the pier. Ningzhutou went back and went back to the far door and indeed got some fresh ones.

Hanzhu smiled and called Qiulan to come in and asked her to pass the message.

They rented two boats, and the boatman was on the front, and Zhang Fu sat on it and looked at his luggage. Aunt Zhang was there, and cooked for them. On this boat, Uncle Zhang and the man were on the bow of the boat, and the man was on the stern of the boat, and he was separated by the two ends during the day. At night, Uncle Zhang slept with him, and the tent of Qiulan Chunliu was separated by the tent of Qiulan and Chunliu, which could not affect her and her sister.

Zhang Fu did the work of buying things at the dock.

Zhang Fu's most joyful day is that he was docking. He flexibly jumped onto the dock with his food box and bought a tray of meat filling for the evil man who claimed to be Ding Er. His family and the girls both vegetarian filling. When he returned to the bow of the boat, he saw his father standing at the bow of the boat to respond, Zhang Fu begged in a low voice: "Dad, can you let me go up?"

He didn't talk to her, and it would be enough to get closer and listen to the sound.

Uncle Zhang kept a favor and refused to let his son go away. He handed a food box to King Ding who was coming to the front because he wanted to eat. He walked towards the boat tent, knocked on the door, and his daughter Qiulan opened it. After receiving the food box, he quickly put the curtain down. Uncle Zhang turned back to the bow of the boat and saw that King Ding had lifted the lid and arranged the dishes and chopsticks. He sat cross-legged and started eating with him.

You should be like what you pretend to be. King Ding has led soldiers, regardless of the details, and he blew cold soup dumplings one by one. Where does he look like a prince? Looking at it on the shore, he was just two ordinary boatmen, and no one would doubt it.

After finishing the meal, he lay down and scooped the cold river water to wash his mouth. King Ding did not go back to the stern for the time being. He leaned lazily on the board, swept his eyes on the shore, and chatted with Uncle Zhang in his mouth, "Uncle Zhang is really loyal. The master has not read the wrong person."

With the situation of the Jiang family at this time, it was nothing strange that Uncle Zhang and his family stole the money from their sisters, but the whole family was doing the work of servants. Only Zhang Fu was unruly and really regarded himself as the son-in-law of the Jiang family, thinking about getting on the girl's boat all day long.

Uncle Zhang sighed and looked at the bright sunset in the sky and said, "My master is walking anxiously. I will not promise the girl to my unpromising son two days later. Master promises me, so I can respect me. How can I let my trust?" The master was also helpless. He was about to go. If he didn't make a decision earlier, the eldest girl would have to mourn for three years. Such a delicate girl, who has no elders at home, will be targeted by the evil people? Unfortunately, the master didn't know that the eldest girl had been targeted by the dog official.

King Ding looked at the boat tent with his eyes.

The big girl in the Jiang family is so beautiful, but her temperament is even quieter than a real lady. The noble girls in the capital may not be able to not leave the cabin for three days. Not only does she be quiet, but she also has the ability to keep her playful and active sister by her side.

Just as I was watching, a familiar voice suddenly came from the front. The voice was familiar, but he didn't understand a word of the words he said, as if it was in Hangzhou dialect.

King Ding frowned and saw a man in his thirties standing on the bow of the boat, with two baskets placed on the ground next to him, with Suzhou specialties. He looked at his appearance, fair skin, a pair of slender squinted eyes, a goatee beard on his chin, and a black mole next to his nose.

King Ding looked at the other person playfully.

Uncle Zhang was stunned for a while, then invited the person up, and naturally said to King Ding: "This is the old friend of Mr. Liu, who is doing a small business in Suzhou. When he learned that we were going to Shandong, he happened to go to Shandong. He made an appointment in advance to go together. You can take him to settle down."

King Ding quickly stood up and led the way attentively, "It turns out to be Manager Liu. Let's go here, come on, I'll help you carry things."

When he spoke official language, Cheng Yu changed it to official language, "I'm working hard."

I really asked King Ding to help him carry those two baskets of gifts.

Two people passed by the tent, one in front and one behind.

Ningzhu lowered his head and ate the soup bun. Hanzhu listened with his ears in his ears. Through the gap in the bamboo curtain, he saw the man's tall back. He became more and more sure that he was rushing over.

For some reason, Hanzhu suddenly felt much more at ease. Perhaps the smile-loving Ding Er might be good. Although this person is cold, he is a gentleman in men and women? With him on the boat, Ding Er will be worried about him even if he has bad intentions.

King Ding didn't know that he had been labeled as a romantic young man because of Cheng Yu. When he reached the stern of the boat, the two sat down and talked. He looked at Cheng Yu carefully and said curiously: "Okay, your ability to disguise is much better than mine. Why do you make your eyes so small?"

Cheng Yu asked him coldly: "You want to learn?"

King Ding touched his narrow phoenix eyes and joked: "Forget it, my eyes are not as big as yours. If I can't recover, I'm afraid no one will know me when I go back. How about it? I've cleaned up there?"

Cheng Yu nodded, "Dead."

King Ding was not surprised, but said in a deep voice: "Will the servants of the Jiang family come to deliver the letter?" The Jiang sisters were willing to go north to escape. If they learned that the threat had disappeared halfway, they would definitely want to return to their hometown. Although he and Cheng Yu could threaten them to continue moving forward, the other party was unwilling to do so, and it was easy to make mistakes on the way.

Cheng Yu lying on the couch with his clothes, closed his eyes and said, "I warned Madam Tian that she dared to send someone to deliver a letter a few years ago, so I killed the master and servant of the Jiang family. And they said that they would move, and they would go back immediately as soon as the magistrate died, which would easily cause suspicion."

He acted well and King Ding was relieved.

Cheng Yu was tired and turned inside, "I'll sleep for a while."

It was really hard to come from Hangzhou. King Ding didn't bother him anymore. After a while, he suddenly realized a problem, "You sleep on my couch, where will I sleep at night? There is still a place on the boat there, go and sleep!"

He could tolerate living in the same room with Uncle Zhang, but he didn't want to squeeze into a boat tent with other servants.

Cheng Yu didn't want to change the boat, so he pretended to be asleep and ignored him.

Uncle Zhang must stay here to guard the two girls of his family. King Ding looked at the only two beds inside and got up to pull Cheng Yu. Uncle Zhang happened to come over and saw the two big men fighting for a bed. He smiled and said, "I'll hit the floor tonight. It's not cold now, and it's okay to sleep on the bed. Young master wait, I'll get a new quilt."

After saying that, he left.

With a solution, King Ding released Cheng Yu and snorted: "I will cover a new quilt later, you have touched this."

Cheng Yu continued to sleep face inside, the river flowed constantly, the passenger ship swayed regularly, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, the person who was sternly on the boat was replaced by Cheng Yu.

He and King Ding fought against Japanese pirates in Fujian, and they practiced all their kung fu, whether they were rowing or swimming.

Ding Wangwai lay beside him, basking in the sun comfortably, squinted his eyes at the green mountains and waters on the shore. After looking at it for a while, he felt bored and asked Cheng Yu: "You said Ningzhu is only eight years old, why didn't her sister let her come out to play? She needs to avoid being old, and even her sister is by her side. Could it be that in her eyes, I am the kind of evil person who even bullies children?"

"How do I know?" Cheng Yu was still dressed yesterday, and the fake beard on his chin fluttered in the wind.

He was taciturn and even more boring. King Ding glared at him and suddenly stood up.

Cheng Yu turned his head to look at him: "You..."

"Press the boat with peace of mind, I have a sense of responsibility." King Ding waved his hand to him, and reached the tent in the middle. He sang: "Miss II, I want to fish, is there a fishing rod inside?"

Hanzhu was teaching her sister to read. When she heard this, she shook her head at her sister who was open and wanted to speak, and gestured to Chunliu to deal with it with her eyes.

Chunliu went out and said apologetically: "There is not on the boat here. The young master really wants to fish. I'll ask if there is any on the boat ahead?"

The tone is not kind.

King Ding looked forward and saw Zhang Fu standing at the stern of the boat and looking here nervously. He was obviously afraid that he would do anything to his fiancée. He suddenly felt a fire in his heart. He was a dignified prince, and it was nothing to be wary of by the girl. Why did even a vulgar servant dare to underestimate him?

He took a step back and smiled against the ship railing. The prince's noble aura was fully displayed, and he said domineeringly: "Go, hurry up."

Chunliu didn't look at him, so naturally he didn't see the smile on his face. Zhang Fu could see clearly there. As a man, he could only be anxious from afar when he saw the man next to him demonstrating to him on his fiancee's boat, and Zhang Fu was also angry. Chunliu came over to ask, but he said without thinking: "No!"

"How do you know if you didn't ask?" Uncle Zhang whispered and asked the boatman who was lying on the other side, "Do you have a fishing rod?"

The boatman spoke in a not-so-skilled official speech, "Yes, there are fishing rods and fish nets, will I take them out now?"

Uncle Zhang nodded. When the boatman left, he pointed to the tent in front of him and scolded his son: "Sit in and stay in the back, why are you doing when you have nothing to do?" He knew that his son was guarding against the two of them, but the girl didn't know, what if he thought his son was peeping at her? As for those two, they had kung fu and were really malicious, so they took action in Hangzhou.

Zhang Fu couldn't resist his father and left in anger.

King Ding looked at him entering the tent, sneered, took the fishing rod and said to the tent, "Miss Two, I want to fish, please come out and see."

The tone was specially emphasized on the word "please".

Who dares not obey what he wants? Don’t really treat him as a boatman.

Hanzhu understood the threat in the man's words, and when she saw that her sister was excited, she wanted to go, so she got off the couch helplessly, tied up the cloak that Qiuli was wearing for her sister, and told her softly: "It's windy outside, so I'll wear more clothes. Don't get too close to the side of the boat after going out, be careful to fall down."

Ningzhu nodded obediently, "I know, sister, don't worry."

Hanzhu touched her head and asked Chunliu Qiulan to go out to take care of her.

Not long after, Ningzhu's crisp laughter came from outside.

Hanzhu was curious in her heart, quietly lifting the curtains and looking out, unable to see. Her forehead was closer to the window, but she only saw a figure carrying a boat. He stood facing her side, her robe was blown by the wind, and she put it on her body to outline a tall and straight outline...

Before he could see his face, he suddenly looked over.

Hanzhu immediately put down the bamboo curtain, and when he retreated in panic, he accidentally hit the table. His hand brushed the tea bowl to the ground, making a muffled sound.

Hanzhu's heartbeat was so fast that she stood with her clothes on her back for a while before calming down.

Did he see her?

What will you think after seeing it?

Absent-mindedly picked up the empty tea bowl, Hanzhu looked at the place where he was just sitting, and regretted it very much.

Stern.

Hearing the unclear muffled sound, Cheng Yu paused his hand on the boat.

She retreated anxiously, and he only saw a fair and pretty face. Before she could see her expression clearly, she ran away.

Are you looking at him or her sister?

Cheng Yu turned around and looked at the fishing people who were five steps away from him. He was stunned and continued to ride the boat.

After a break at noon, King Ding came back after the stern of the boat and was surprised to find that Cheng Yu had removed the black mole next to his nose.

"It should have been removed, but it's disgusting." King Ding said disgusted. Just like the acne on his face, it was all small things, and it was too late to stick it on the boat when it was against the dock.

"I didn't let you see it." Cheng Yu replied to him coldly.

The King of Ding is in a state of energy.
