Chapter 362: Small People Also Have Tempers

Thanks to the boatman's efforts, the boat quickly caught up with the boat in front.

Perhaps it was because the boatman's skills were really good that the two boats were very close to each other but did not actually collide.

However, such a dangerous position still frightened the boatman of the previous boat, and he immediately started cursing.

"Whose boat is that behind us? Do they have eyes? Look, they're almost hitting us. Are they looking for death?"

The cursing boatman stuck his head out, but immediately turned mute when he saw the boatman behind him.

Nanny Chun at the bow thought that the boatman was afraid of her and her men, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.

I was born into an official family in Kyoto. Even if I was just a slave, I still had an aura of dignity. It was normal for a commoner to be afraid.

Facing the boatman's fearful gaze, Chun was about to jump over the boat. But the boat was shaken by the waves, and she immediately retracted her feet in fear of death.

"Xiao Chen, you guys go over and invite the young lady over."

Upon hearing this, several guards immediately jumped over the boat. When the boat curtain was opened, everyone was dumbfounded.

Where is the eldest lady?

Xiao Chen, who was leading the group, broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

Because he was the one in charge of renting the boat and keeping an eye on the young lady today.

He never expected that while he was talking to the captain, the young lady actually slipped away, leaving behind so many things to mislead him.

It’s over, Madam Huichun is going to be very angry.

Sure enough, when she saw those people coming out empty-handed, Nanny Chun became furious.

"The young lady refuses to come out?"

Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"Madame Chun, the young lady is not on the boat. I think she is on another boat..."

After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Nanny Chun's face turned pale beyond description.

If the eldest lady had left at the beginning, wouldn't it be a joke for her to chase after her?

Nanny Chun, who was very concerned about her reputation, kicked Xiao Chen and vented her anger on the boatman opposite.

"Where did you hide our eldest daughter?!"

The boatman on the opposite side was dumbfounded. This was simply a sudden disaster.

"Auntie, you are wrongly accusing me. Today I have both old and young people on my trip, but no young lady. And my boat is so small, there is no place to hide people."

"Whose goods are those baskets on the bow of your boat?"

At this point, everyone on and off the boat knew who was being talked about.

The boatman smiled bitterly and replied, "These things are indeed from a little girl. I just put the things on the boat for her when someone called her from behind. Then the little girl didn't come back, only a boy came up to pass on the message for her."

The servant of the Min family sitting in the corner was afraid that he would be implicated, so he quickly revealed the fact that his young lady had invited Jiang Wan.

After hearing the whole story, Nanny Chun was unhappy but had to accept the defeat.

"Wait! You said their boat was a cruise ship, so it must be moving very slowly and it must not be far from us."

Nanny Chun felt that there was a light at the end of the tunnel, and her mood improved so she let the boatman on the opposite side go, and ordered Xiao Chen to grab the Min family servant and bring him over to the boat, so that he could point the direction and cooperate with her.

As soon as the people got hold of it, the boat quickly changed direction.

"It's so scary..."

"Those people are obviously from the families of high-ranking officials and nobles."

"I can't afford to offend you."

The people in the cabin breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the small fishing boat turned into a small black dot.

Someone who was familiar with the boatman couldn't help but speak up for him.

"Old Chang, you're in big trouble this time, running into a bunch of bullies. It's a pity that we are so weak that we can't help them, otherwise I would have beaten a few of them to vent my anger."

Lao Chang just smiled, knowing that it was just a joke.

He didn't get his revenge, but someone will help him get it.

When he thought of the boatman on the opposite boat, his heart began to tremble. He was a murderer who almost killed his entire family.

Even though he had his reasons back then, this kind of murderer who is determined to kill everyone is not afraid of anyone.

I don’t know if that group of people have asked for the boatman’s name…

Accompanied by the sound of rowing, the boat quickly sailed to the sea near the cruise ship.

Nanny Chun hadn't even had a bite of lunch and was now hungry and thirsty, so she urged the maid beside her to quickly bring out some drinks and steamed buns.

For an old man who has been eating hard steamed bread for a long time, the soft and fluffy steamed bread is simply food from heaven.

Aunt Chun, who didn't like steamed buns before, ate five of them in one breath with plain water.

Just when I had eaten and drunk enough and wanted to lie down for a while, the boat suddenly stopped.

Nanny Chun was excited.

"Xiao Chen, have we caught up with the cruise ship that the young lady was on?"

Xiao Chen shook his head and said no, then turned around to check on the boatman, and soon came back with a depressed look on his face.

"Madame Chun, the boatman said he has been rowing for so long that he is exhausted and wants to eat something to regain his strength."

Nanny Chun is not a considerate person. It’s okay for her to stop to eat, but why should a small boatman do that?

Wouldn't it be a waste of time to stop just to eat?

Everything went wrong today. Nanny Chun had been holding back her anger for a long time, and now it was all ignited in an instant.

She went to the stern angrily and saw the dirty boatman chewing a gray nest devoutly without even looking at her.

Furious, Nanny Chun grabbed the nest, gave it a disgusted look, and threw it into the sea.

"Don't stop now! Hurry up and mark it for me! When you catch the person, I will reward you with ten steamed buns."

When he heard that there were ten steamed buns, the boatman's expression did not change at all, he just looked straight at Nanny Chun.

"What are you looking at! You don't want your eyes anymore, right? How dare a dirty boatman like you to covet my name? Bah!"

This sarcastic face quickly overlapped with the sister-in-law in his memory.

The boatman, who had been extremely calm, suddenly jumped up and stretched out his hands to tightly strangle Nanny Chun's neck.

"You have a really annoying mouth. What did I do to offend you that you have been scolding me since I was a child? How did my grandma do anything wrong to you? I gave you all the delicious food and good farmland, but you guys starved me to death!"

The boatman's eyes were full of ferocity, and he roared while throwing Nanny Chun into the water.

Several guards who heard the noise came running over and reached out to grab the people, but they saw the boatman jumped hard on the side of the boat, and the whole boat shook violently.

How could a bunch of landlubbers be any match for the guys who were born and raised by the sea? Plus, the boatman was strong and sturdy, so he kicked the guards off the boat with little effort.

Suddenly, there was a cry for help on the sea.

At this time, the few people left in the cabin were stunned. No one had expected this result.

The boatman ignored the people in the cabin and sat quietly by the boat, watching a group of people struggling in the water.

"You are too dirty. You should stay in the water and wash yourself thoroughly."

Nanny Chun, who was almost strangled and choked, just came to her senses when she heard these words and her tears dried up with fear.

Didn't the boatman intend to save them?
