After a long night and a half, the boat finally reached Qingjiang County Wharf at dawn the next day.
It was quiet and grey before dawn.
The bright moonlight slanted on the boat, intertwined with the dim yellow fire light in the cabin, and the warm light overflowed, dispersing the slight cold in the early morning in the mountains.
Song Xintong stood on the deck and saw a bright moon printed on the not so open river. He was about 15, and the moon was only missing a small opening.
Looking at the busy bridge built by the workers at the wharf, many people guarding the work are guarding the trestle.
Jiang's ships have cargo ships and passenger ships. They take passenger ships, but there are a lot of goods at the bottom of the cabin, which need workers to carry.
When the bridge was built, song Xintong and his family got off the boat first. After getting off the boat, they found that there were many guests waiting on the wharf to go on the boat. Some businessmen and friends went to other states.
After waiting for the carriage to come down, song Xintong and his family took the carriage back to the village.
In the early morning, the village was quiet, and the early rising villagers could be heard cooking. They walked along the stream and soon arrived at Lu's home.
At the door, the barking of the puppies came from the house.
Poplar said: "a few days ago, I found two more dogs for the workshop. One was put in my uncle's house, and the other was going to Xie Fu's house."
Song Xintong nodded, "mother is not awake."
As soon as the words came to an end, the door inside opened with a creak. Lu's mother stood at the door with a stick and looked out.
"Mother, it's us." Lu Yunkai yelled. Hearing his voice, Lu's mother quickly put down her stick and walked out joyfully. She opened the gate of the outer school and said, "why did you come back so early? Come in quickly. Don't freeze. "
Song Xintong's mother had already put on her clothes. She took her inside and said, "Niang, why did you get up so early?"
"I'm too old to sleep." Lu Mu said.
Why are you old when you are less than forty? Song Xintong didn't believe it. It must be because Lu Yunkai wrote a letter a few days ago saying that he would come back in the next two days, so she got up earlier and waited. I don't know how many days she had been waiting.
"Mother can't sleep? You and I go to the county to ask a doctor to show you, or make some porridge to help you sleep... "Before Song Xintong finished, Lu's mother interrupted her, saying that she didn't need to.
Lu mother lovingly looked at Song Xintong's stomach and said, "it's much bigger than before."
Song Xintong gave a sound and touched his stomach: "it's a little heavy. I feel I need to support it."
"It's still a little too small. Is it because I haven't eaten much in the bitter summer?" Mother Lu frowned. Xintong is almost six and a half months pregnant now. She should grow a lot. How can she be about four or five months old?
"I eat a lot at every meal, but I just don't get fat," Song said
"It's still too little. I'll make some soup for you." In the kitchen, song Xintong grabbed her: "mother, don't worry. Let's talk about it later. Yesterday, my husband asked Daya to make a pot of tonic Soup for me. Now I'm tired of it."
"Then I'll make some appetizers in the morning. You can eat more and cook fish soup for you at noon." Lu Mu said.
"Well... OK." Song Xintong's spirit is languid. He can hardly wait until he gets home to cool down. He is not so tired of eating, and he has to be treated as a pig.
Lu Yunkai arranged the chariots and horses. When he returned to the house, he found that song Xintong was in low spirits. "What's the matter? Sleepy? Daya is boiling water. She will send hot water to me soon, wash and sleep again. "
"Not sleepy." Last night, I had a comfortable sleep. The river breeze was blowing on the river. It was very cool. Song Xintong had a comfortable sleep. "My mother is going to make up for me like a pig. I really don't want to drink it."
"The doctor said you have a bone deficiency. You need to mend it." Lu Yunkai disagrees.
Song Xintong dissatisfied said: "I'm just thin, not long meat, did not say bad."
"Since you won't gain weight, it doesn't matter if you drink more there." Lu Yunkai sat next to song Xintong: "Niang's soup is very light, better than Daya's
This is also true. Lu Mu's craftsmanship is really good, and she doesn't know how to make it. The same dishes and what others make are delicious.
"Well, I can't talk about you anyway." Song Xintong relies on landing to open the clouds and responds to the situation. In fact, she wants to eat the dishes made by Lu Mu.
"Girl, here comes the hot water." Daya's voice rang out of the room.
"Send it in." Lu Yunkai asked Daya to send water in. After running back and forth twice, he filled the bath bucket with water.
After Da Ya went out, song Xintong took the changed clothes and went into the clean room inside. After transformation, it changed a lot.
"We can't see that our house has been renovated just now. It's clear here." Song Xintong put his shirt on the screen, then bent down and began to take off his shoes and socks.
"I'll help you." Yunkai came forward to take off her shoes and socks, and untied her coat.
"Here I am." Song Xintong said quickly.
Lu Yunkai looked at her and said, "I'll help you."
Today how so active, do you want to... Song Xintong looked up at him, saw that he was just serious to help her take off the shirt, as if there was no evil idea at all.
Soon, the jacket, lining, tunic and trousers were all taken off.
Lu Yunkai didn't look much. He picked up song Xintong, who had already taken off his clothes, and put him in the bath bucket to soak, "wash well and call me."
Song Xintong looks at Lu Yunkai, who leaves the clean room quickly. He looks down at his body. Except for his big stomach, there is no deformation in other places. Now his chest has grown a lot. It's good to look at everything. Why doesn't he have any idea?
Is it out of favor?
Song Xintong is depressed to lean against bath bucket to sit, do not want to talk, sad.
Lu Yunkai waited outside for a long time, but did not wait for song Xintong to call him. He hesitated and walked into the clean room. He saw song Xintong sitting against the bucket, looking at the water in the bucket with a gloomy look.
Lu Yun went over and touched the water, which was already warm and cool: "can I wash it?"
Song Xintong turned to look at him.
"What's the matter?" Lu Yunkai looked at her eyes slightly red, all of a sudden panic.
"Don't you like me?" Song Xintong directly asked why she had been wondering just now. Is it that Jiang Mingzhao has taken her scholar to the sound and color venues these days? Lu Xiucai, who originally opened meat dishes, is now banned from eating meat, so she goes to meet other women and doesn't want to see her?
Lu Yunkai said, "how can I say that?"
"You're not interested in me anymore." Song Xintong doesn't want to hide and suffocate. He thinks that he and his wife can't be stuffy at the bottom of his heart and doesn't say, "you don't see me when I'm not dressed."
"..." Lu Yunkai couldn't laugh or cry, and said in a deep voice: "I dare not watch, I'm afraid I can't control it..."
Song Xintong Leng for a while, whispered: "that you want?"
"I think so." Lu Yunkai lowered his voice and resisted the impulse from the bottom of his heart, "but I can't hurt you and the child."
Just think about it. It's not that she has no charm.
Song Xintong felt relieved at the bottom of her heart. Maybe at the beginning of her marriage, she could say that if she didn't like it, she would be separated from Li. But now, she is not willing to.
She has been tied up, become a little affected, become a little self-confident, a little bit of clues may make her uneasy.
Maybe only when she doesn't care enough about this person, she can turn around and go freely.
But now, she can't.
