Qiu Yumei: "Xiaoyan, let's forget about it. Tonight's cruise is not cheap." Although she can earn money now, she has been used to a hard life since childhood, and she always tries to save money whenever she goes out.
Qiu Yan smiled and said, "Auntie, it's rare to see the children so happy." After she finished speaking, she took Gu Xiaoran's hand and turned to find the place to rent a boat.
At the boat rental counter, Qiu Yan pointed to the only remaining large boat and asked, "How much is that boat?"
Since there are many of them, the boat naturally needs to be bigger.
"Five taels of silver," the boatman said.
Just as Qiu Yan took out five taels of silver, a man in tight-fitting clothes rushed over and stuffed five taels of silver into the boatman's hand. "We want that boat."
Qiu Yan held the silver coins in her hand, glanced at the man in front of her with displeasure, and the scene of the fight at Xingyue Tower was imprinted in her mind.
“Miss, our young master is in such a good mood, could you please do us a favor and let us have this boat?” Zhan Yue recognized Qiu Yan, paused slightly, and then quickly looked around for Gu Qian.
That day at Xingyue Tower, in order to avoid a marriage alliance, Gu Qian had told his master that this girl was his fiancée.
Qiu Yan followed Zhan Yue's gaze to the man behind him. "I arrived first. There are only two of you, but there are eight of us."
Zhan Yue: "Eight people can rent two small boats."
The boatman hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, we only have one large boat left, but we still have ten small boats."
"There are ten people." Qiu Dayu pulled Zhao Yuanyuan along as they jogged over.
There's no reason not to tag along on my niece's boat trip.
Qiu Yan glanced at Qiu Dayu and Zhao Yuanyuan, "No, we want that big ship."
There were too many of them, and the boat was too small; even two boats couldn't accommodate them all.
If this were a large ship, it could easily accommodate five more people.
Furthermore, the large ship is surrounded by railings, and there are small tables and stools inside, as well as a roof, so it is safe for the child to play inside the ship.
But this little boat is different. It only has four bare seats, which not only restricts the movement of children, but more importantly, it's unsafe.
Zhan Yue wanted to say something more, but He Lin stopped her with a single sentence, "Zhan Yue, don't say anything more."
He Lin approached Qiu Yan, his eyes quietly gazing at her features.
"Shu'er, let them have the big boat, the two of us will take the small boat over there."
Qiu Dayu stepped forward and stood in front of Qiu Yan. "Young master, you have mistaken me for someone else. My niece's name is not Shu'er."
Zhao Yuanyuan nodded in agreement.
Qiu Yan: "His madness has relapsed."
Gu Xiaoran was extremely displeased upon hearing this. Why did this strange uncle call her mother "Shu'er"?
He felt inexplicably disliked upon seeing He Lin.
He doesn't want to be separated from his mother.
Thinking of this, he reached out and climbed onto Qiu Yan's body. As Qiu Yan lifted him up, he hugged her neck tightly. "Let's ride the big ship together."
He Lin then noticed the little one beside Qiu Yan, and at first glance, he was stunned.
Under the full moon of the fifteenth day of the lunar month, Gu Xiaoran's round little face, illuminated by the moonlight... was all too familiar.
He walked past Qiu Dayu and the other man, then suddenly reached out and hugged Gu Xiaoran's upper body.
"Daddy, hug me."
He pulled hard, trying to lift him off Qiu Yan.
"Let me go! I have a father and a mother, let's go quickly..." Gu Xiaoran's face scrunched up. "You're hurting me." He struggled to break free, but in the next instant, Qiu Yan snatched him back.
"Don't take my child!" Qiu Yan felt that this person should see a psychologist.
