Chapter 310

The next day, August 13.

Song Xintong put all the things he bought these days on the carriage. He came easily and went back in big and small bags. It was quite like the bandits returned to the village in triumph.

Lingnan wharf is very prosperous. Compared with the small Wharf in Qingjiang County, there are not many boats, and the teahouses and restaurants beside the wharf are very busy. This is a miniature of Lingnan city.

"Girl, I'll drive the carriage to the boat first." Daya and Yang Shu put the horses on the boat, while song Xintong stood by the side with the twins, watching Lu Yunkai talking to Jiang Mingzhao.

"Sister, why didn't they drive the horse to the boat?" Dabao looked at the other carriages and asked song Xintong. She looked around and said in a low voice, "this boat belongs to Mr. Jiang. That's why we have to pull the horses up."

"Did our big black buy a ticket?" Xiao Bao knows that he has to buy a ticket to take a boat.

"I didn't buy it." Song Xintong originally wanted to spend money to buy the ticket, but Jiang Mingzhao didn't ask for her silver, but the Jiang family didn't care about the ticket of more than ten Liang silver.

"Sister in law, I'll show you the room." Jiang Mingzhao led the people to the second floor of the cabin. The cabin on the second floor was similar to the upper room. Compared with the inn, the room was a little rough. The table and bed were fixed on the board of the boat to prevent it from toppling over in case of strong wind and waves.

"I wanted to leave you two cabins with the sky above, but it was ordered." Jiang Mingzhao said.

"It doesn't have to be so good. Just have a place to live." Lu Yunkai said lightly.

"There is a big shop below. Would you like to live with your sister-in-law?" Jiang Mingzhao doesn't know his temperament and doesn't want to trouble people, but he is a wife slave. He wants to give song Xintong the best and can't let the people he protects be wronged.

Even if there is no way to fight back now, when he has the ability or the time comes, he will retaliate back.

Jiang Mingzhao and Lu Yunkai had known each other for so many years. Originally, they appreciated each other, but later, they realized that this man had a good nature, so they didn't want to fight each other any more.

Jiang Mingzhao looks at the obvious scar on Lu Yunkai's cheek. He doesn't know how the scar removing medicine doesn't work. "I heard that there is a royal doctor in Beijing. The scar removing medicine he made works well. I'll find some for you when I go to the capital next time."

"No, that's fine." Every time Lu Yunkai touched the scar, he would remember what happened at the beginning, and he would also remember to be more cautious and defensive.

Jiang Mingzhao joked: "what's better? Sister in law don't dislike the scar on your face? "

"She said it was incomplete beauty." Lu Yunkai thought of song Xintong's eyes when he saw him for the first time. He was surprised and grateful, but he didn't have sympathy and pity.

Jiang Mingzhao was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, "brother and sister are really wonderful."

Song Xintong settled the room for the twins, then came over, just heard Jiang Mingzhao's words, "what wonderful person?"

Jiang Mingzhao wants to explain, but Lu Yunkai gives him a warning. Instead of continuing, he takes out a letter from him and hands it to song Xintong.

Song Xintong took out the things inside and looked at them. It was the title deed and key of the house he lived in before. "Mr. Jiang, what do you do for me?" He said he would give it back to him.

Jiang Mingzhao waved his hand, "I don't need that house any more. I'll give it to my sister-in-law as a place to stay."

"No, we can go to the restaurant later." Song Xintong doesn't want to owe people any more, "Mr. Jiang, take it back quickly."

"Yunkai has helped a lot this time. This is my thanks." Jiang Mingzhao doesn't accept it.

Song Xintong looks at Lu Yunkai suspiciously. What's the big deal? Is it worth taking out the yard as a gift?

Lu Yunkai nodded: "since he gave it to you, take it."

He said so, song Xintong will no longer refuse, "thank you Mr. Jiang."

"You're welcome." Jiang Mingzhao took a look outside, arched his hand and said, "the ship is about to leave. Have a good trip."

"Slow down."

After Jiang Mingzhao got off the ship, the workers on the dock took the huge long iron plate on the bed and pulled it back. The boatman on the ship locked the fence, then blew the horn and set sail.

Song Xintong leaned against the railings and looked at Jiang Mingzhao, who had gradually turned into a virtual shadow on the wharf. Then he asked, "what did you do for him, and it's worth using such a small courtyard worth more than 2000 taels as a reward?"

"I helped him to win a business with huge profits. Take this little money." Lu Yunkai didn't pay attention to this silver. Looking at the gentle and open river, he said with a light look.

"If you say that, I'll take it." Song Xintong put the house deed and key into the cage. "In fact, I also want to buy a small courtyard when I go to Lingnan city next time. Since he gave it away, I saved some money."

"It's good to be able to go back to the village at last. I don't know what's going on at home." Song Xintong took off his shoes, lying on the bed, listening to the sound of the waves on the river, "upstream, can you come tomorrow morning?"

"If you can, you'll get to the dock after a night's sleep." Lu Yunkai took out a book from the box, sat on the armchair by the window and read it carefully.

Seeing that he began to read the book seriously, song Xintong stopped talking. Listening to the sound of the waves beating the hull outside the cabin, he shook his legs and soon fell asleep.

Seeing that she was asleep, Lu Yunkai walked to the bedside and pulled the thin quilt over to cover her heart and stomach so as not to get cold.

When song Xintong wakes up again, Lu Yunkai is still sitting by the window reading. The orange sunset slants into the window and falls on him, like a thin layer of light.

He had the same book in his hand, but he had already turned many pages.

Lu Yun looked up at her: "wake up?"

"Well." Song Xintong looked out of the window at the sunset that had fallen under the mountains, "so late?"

"The time will come to an end." Lu Yunkai put the book down and sat up with her.

Song Xintong put on his shoes, went to the window and looked at the setting sun, which was about to set down. He put the last touch of afterglow on the river, and the yellow color was intoxicating. "It's really beautiful."

She has seen the sea and the beauty of the setting sun on the sea. But somehow, she likes this piece most. It's different from the people who watch the setting sun. Song Xintong looks at Lu Yunkai on the river and likes it and falls in love with it.

"What do you want me to do?" Lu Yunkai looked at his wife and said, "I'm more beautiful than the sunset on the river?"

Song Xintong laughed, turned his head and looked at the rolling waves of the river: "I am happy."

"Happy what?"

"It's you who are happy to see such beautiful scenery with me."
