At night.
"Why didn't you hear the frog?" Song Xintong, wearing his own pajamas with bare arms and thighs, was lying on the bed, swinging his legs up and down.
"Guess someone's catching the frog." Lu Yunkai looked at Song Xintong's action, his face slightly darkened, "why do you want to do this?"
"Thin legs." Song Xintong patted his thigh, "recently sat for a long time, thigh thick."
"Not rough." Lu Yunkai pressed song Xintong's legs, and then took a thin to be pressed, "don't move, be careful to catch a cold."
Song Xintong pursed her lips and laughed. It was clear that she was looking at her big white leg and her eyes were hot. She also said that she had a cold. She was really a duplicative Lu Xiucai. Today, she was tired all day outside, and it was hard to seduce him any more. She had better cover it so that he would not be able to sleep at ease.
Lu Yunkai pulled the tent to prevent mosquitoes from entering the tent.
Song Xintong waited for him to lie down, and then told him what happened today: "I don't know if I can catch that man."
After hearing this, Lu Yunkai said faintly, "the steward on the wharf will not search for a wide range of people. As long as those people no longer appear on the wharf, they won't be in charge any more."
Song Xintong frowned slightly, "how can it be like this?"
"The wharf is originally a place where good and bad people mingle. The steward of the wharf is only responsible for the notification of the arrival time of the ships, the collection of rent and the percentage of the ships. Apart from them, there are other unloading workers and other shippers. These people have become small gangs and mixed networks." Lu Yunkai explained: "the steward of the wharf said that it was because of the relationship between Jiang Mingzhao and us that he said that?"
Song Xintong nodded, Lu Yunkai's words are very straightforward, she naturally understood.
"It's better to report to the official." Song Xintong turned his lips.
"You don't know what that county magistrate is like. Unless aunt Xie is willing to make a lot of money, they won't move those local ruffians and hooligans." Lu Yunkai stretched out his hand and stroked song Xintong's hair, "aunt Xie can only admit the loss this time."
Song Xintong frowned, but at the bottom of her heart, she clearly understood how deep the water was. At the bottom of her heart, the feeling of powerlessness that she could only be bullied because she had no power made her extremely uncomfortable. Even if she had money, she still wanted to please the powerful.
It's the same in every dynasty and every place.
In addition, in the Zhou Dynasty, the merchants were at the bottom of the list, and sometimes the lower merchants were not as good as the peasants who had just enough food and clothing.
"Is that the only way?" Song Xintong frowned.
"If Jiang Mingzhao is willing to say it, he can, but he has nothing to do with aunt Xie. Why can they help?" Lu Yunkai said directly: "I know you are not comfortable in your heart, but the reality is that those who have no power and no power can only look up to the superior."
"Well, I know." Song Xintong sighed, "I hope one day, I can become a powerful person."
"If I have money like Mr. Jiang, can I?"
"Well, probably." Lu Yunkai didn't say what a powerful official Jiang Mingzhao was standing behind. He just looked at Song Xintong and promised from the bottom of his heart: one day, I will earn a wife for you.
Song Xintong pursed his lips, and then said his ambition, "then I'll open more branches, and I'll earn more money in the future, and I'll be a local tyrant with thousands of acres of good land." After that, he looked at Lu Yunkai again: "in the future, you will study and take scientific examinations, and I will support you behind your back."
"Well, thank you, madam." Lu Yunkai immediately smile, like the spring breeze blowing from the bottom of song Xintong's heart, making her heart thump, "you can't smile at other women like this in the future."
Lu Yunkai didn't understand, "eh?"
"It's so beautiful. What if you smile at others and they like you? I can't take care of my children at that time. How can I have time to compete with other junior three and four Song Xintong said in Lu Yunkai's lips quickly kiss, "you remember?"
Lu Yunkai replied with a smile: "lady, remember for my husband."
"Just remember." Song Xintong kisses him again. When she intends to push him away, she is controlled by Lu Yunkai, who is turning over. She lowers her head and kisses her rosy and moist lips. It's sweet and delicious.
In the morning light, song Xintong sleeps vaguely. He hears the knock on the door outside the yard. He opens his bleary eyes and looks at Lu Yunkai dressing and going out by moonlight.
"Who's knocking at the door?" Song Xintong asked.
"Wake you up?" Lu Yunkai turned and walked back to the bed, gently touched song Xintong's cheek, "I'll have a look, you continue to sleep."
"Well." Song Xintong nodded. After Lu Yunkai left, he narrowed his eyes again, but he couldn't sleep any more. Seeing that Lu Yunkai hadn't come back, he hesitated and got out of bed.
He put on his coat and went to the gate. When he came to the gate, he found that Lu Yunkai was talking with a man, vaguely looking at the figure of that man, which was quite familiar.
Song Xintong walked two steps to the door again, only to find that it was poplar, "how did Uncle Yang come here at this time? But Dabao, they're sick? "
Lu Yunkai noticed that song Xintong had already walked behind him, "how did he come out? Go back. "
Song Xintong ignored him, looking at the poplar: "what's the matter, you say it quickly!"
Poplar looked at Lu Yunkai hesitantly, "girl, it's OK. It's just in the county..."
Song Xintong sank his face and turned to look at Lu Yunkai: "you say."
"Nothing." Lu Yunkai took song Xintong's waist and said, "it's cold at night. Go back to your room quickly."
"I heard someone at the other end of the river. Is something wrong with the workshop?" Song Xintong asked Lu Yunkai in a deep voice, "if you don't say it, I'll go and see it myself."
Lu Yunkai quickly stopped her, "well, I'll tell you that."
Song Xintong pursed his lips, waiting for him to speak.
"I said don't worry." Lu Yun said, "the workshop is on fire, but the fire has been put out."
Listen to him finish, song Xintong immediately Bureau frowned: "well, how can fire?"
Poplar said: "I don't know. Maybe the oil lamp is on fire."
"The workshops are all on fire?" Song Xintong's heart suddenly mentioned the voice, the distortion of the voice.
Poplar quickly said: "no, just a little bit of burning in the warehouse."
"That's good." Song Xintong breathed a sigh of relief, his brain also sobered a lot, "why is the warehouse on fire?"
"It's already being checked. I'll know when it's cleaned up." Yang Shudun said: "fortunately, only a corner of the fire was found, in addition to the three thousand jin of vermicelli placed in the corner, there is no other loss."
"Are the workers hurt?" Asked song Xintong.
Yang Shu said: "no, the workers got up early to cook and found out in time. Then they went to the village to find several families to help. Now those families are still helping with the cleaning in the workshop."
Song Xintong breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he only lost three or four thousand jin of vermicelli. Fortunately, everyone was OK. "It's almost dawn. I'll go and have a look."
