The river is wide and can accommodate many boats.
On this day, the Qin family's fleet arrived here and needed to stay for a day to replenish and pack up.
Qin Lianyue was at the stern of the third deck, setting up a small table and making tea.
She wore a mink hat, a green silk jacket and silk cotton trousers, a gray pleated skirt, and a gray mink cloak.
This person and this scene added a great deal of elegance to the river.
She was busy preparing the tea set with her slender hands and seemed to be enjoying the process very much.
Water was boiling in the charcoal stove, and peanuts and red dates were roasting on the iron net. It wasn't actually cold, but she still rubbed her hands and chuckled.
Because she knew this picture was very beautiful...
To the side of her boat, there was a large, shiny black boat parked. It looked very impressive, but no one knew who it belonged to.
On the other side was our own ship, and further ahead, a fleet had just docked.
There was no wind, the river was calm, and the years were peaceful.
In the past few months, she tried every possible means to see Wen Yu.
But the two families were already more than a hundred miles apart, so it was impossible for their carriages to collide with each other just on the street.
She visited several respectable families, but she didn't see the Wen family. Instead, she heard a lot of discussions about this marriage. It seemed that no one knew this Wen Yu. This made her more convinced that this was a woman who was not presentable.
Maybe she had done something very lucky in her previous life to be able to have this marriage.
After her dowry was ready, she practiced calligraphy and piano, hoping to show off her skills in the capital. She wanted everyone to know that the future Duke's wife would be both talented and beautiful!
Waiting for the water to boil.
Suddenly, she saw two maids in blue velvet cloaks carrying a flat tray into a room on the third floor on the boat over there.
There was a gentle knock on the door, and a chubby girl opened it. "Girl, I bought the sour soup wontons! Are they cold?" The voice was so loud that even Qin Lianyue could hear it.
What a shame!
"It's not cold. I bought it raw and cooked it in the kitchen." But Qin Lianyue could not hear these words.
The girl went in without closing the door.
After a while, a thinly dressed woman came out, glanced around casually, and her eyes lingered on the black boat for a moment, passing by Qin Lianyue but not stopping.
It seems that this picture of a beautiful woman brewing tea by the river is very ordinary!
This made Qin Lianyue a little unhappy. The water was about to boil, and she was about to take action...
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye I saw a woman in a bright red cloak coming out of the door.
That cape is bright and exaggerated, and it is particularly eye-catching...
Just as he was about to pick up the pot, his hand stopped.
There was only one thought in my mind: She is so beautiful! I saw her standing at the door, stretching slightly, looking left and right, then pointing at the dock, turning back to say something to the house, and then walking towards the stairs.
The thinly dressed woman followed behind.
She reached the stairs and slipped... and was caught by the woman behind her.
He smiled back, looking quite happy!
Qin Lianyue's eyes were fixed on her, and she couldn't help feeling jealous. Look at how rude and unstable she was!
She doesn't even know how to walk properly. You can tell at first glance that she's a nouveau riche businesswoman.
Although she was dissatisfied, she didn't even bother to make tea when the water was boiling. She turned to Ah Qin next to her and said, "Go and find out who owns that boat?! And this..." She pointed to the black boat, which was painted in shiny black with gold lines on the side. It definitely didn't belong to an ordinary family.
The window of the black boat she was pointing to was open, and a young man was standing in front of the window looking at the river view.
When he saw the girl making tea just now, he couldn't help but smile. A beautiful woman making tea by the river, what a beautiful scene!
But when the girl in the red cloak appeared, he shifted his gaze, and then he couldn't move it away. Together with Qin Lianyue, he watched the girl's red velvet cloak float down the boat.
On the dock, there was a little girl carrying a basket full of flowers.
Red cloak, picked and chose and took two handfuls.
Then he paid the bill, and seemed to give a little extra, which made the little village girl bow vigorously and look very excited.
Then the red cape said something that made the little village girl blush. She covered her eyes and wanted to look at her, but was too embarrassed to do so...
When they were walking back, the woman in thin clothes wanted to take the flowers, but the woman in the red cloak refused, so she held them herself and walked back excitedly.
The young man had never seen a woman like this before.
So wanton, so happy! "Go and find out whose family it is?" he ordered.
Qin Lianyue has at least ten cloaks, thin or thick, but she has never thought of wearing one so ostentatiously and without scruples. It seems that the capital is also a place where dragons dance and phoenixes fly!
Not long after, Aqin came over with a pale face, "Girl!"
"What are you doing in such a hurry?!" Qin Lianyue frowned.
"Girl...that ship belongs to the Wen family! The old lady of the Wen family is going to the capital with her family!"
"Wen family?! Is she Wen Yu?" Qin Lianyue pointed at the red cloak, horrified.
"It's very likely, she looks very..." Aqin quickly swallowed back the word "really good", but her intention was obvious.
Yes, she did it on purpose! She wanted to make Qin Lianyue unhappy! Qin Lianyue stared at that person intently...
She was walking back, talking and laughing. To be honest, she was more beautiful than the flower she was holding.
Could it be that her cousin agreed to the marriage so quickly because she was pretty? She was confused...
Then, she saw the girl slip again at the place where she slipped just now...
The thin-clothed woman said something to her with dissatisfaction on her face.
But she made a face and walked into the house briskly.
How can a young lady from a rich family walk like this? How unstable! ? She is so petty. After all, the fifth brother is a son of a marquis, how can he be matched with such a slut? !
These words were running wildly in Qin Lianyue's mind, but she couldn't say them.
The fat girl had been standing by the boat, saying something, and the red cloak appeared again...
The fat girl pointed at the river...
A water bird swooped down, picked up a fish, and then flew back up into the sky. But perhaps it didn't hold the fish tightly enough, and the fish struggled and fell off.
The man in the red cloak laughed loudly and shouted to the cabin, "Ayu Ayu! Come and look! That stupid bird caught a fish, but it flew for a while and lost its grip, so it dropped it! Eh hey hey? The fish swam to the bottom of the water! Hahahaha, this stupid bird!"
The man on the black boat was still looking at the girl who was laughing so hard.
At this time, another woman came out of the house.
Qin Lianyue's breathing stopped. Ah Yu?! Could she be that bitch?
Yes, this is Wen Yu.
He is much taller than Qin Lianyue.
She has snow-white skin, long eyebrows, and beautiful and cold eyes.
Her thin, pale pink lips give her a naturally noble look...making people feel that she is hard to approach.
Qin Lianyue's heart was pounding...for a moment she even felt a little ashamed of herself.
The woman who had just come out looked in the direction pointed by the red cloak, but there was no trace of fish or birds.
There was a hint of smile on her lips, "Where is the silly bird?! There is only a silly girl like you!" Her slender finger pointed at the forehead of the man in the red cloak.
"Really! You came out too late! Wait a little longer and see if they come back?!"
The fat girl held out a dark purple mink cloak and put it on the tall woman. "Girl, the wind is strong by the river, be careful."
Laba next to him rolled his eyes and said, "What's this little bit of wind? When you get to the capital, you'll know what wind is!"
"The girl won't go outside, so it doesn't matter how strong the wind is!"
"Can we stay indoors for the whole winter?" Laba and Xiaoji argued.
Wen Yu listened to their noise and just smiled without getting annoyed. "Let's go see Lan Zhou."
"Okay! Oh, we should buy a bouquet of flowers for Lan Zhou as well." Yan Zhu said, and followed Wen Yu down the stairs, to the second floor, knocked on each door, and walked in.
In the room was Liu Lanzhou accompanied by Du Juan and Li Tan.
"How is Lanzhou?"
"Miss, Master Lanzhou is safe and sound." Du Juan and Li Tan stood up.
Liu Lanzhou sat there, looking relaxed. In the wooden box beside him was his peace and safety.
"Lan Zhou?! Are you dizzy?"
Liu Lanzhou ignored her.
Wen Yu had no choice but to ask again, "Have you eaten?"
Liu Lanzhou still didn't speak.
"Did the little turtle eat?!"
Wen Yu actually saw Liu Lanzhou shook his head slightly.
She couldn't help but feel ecstatic, but she didn't dare show it.
This time when I brought him out, I was worried that he would be out of his familiar environment and get sick again.
"Li Tan, didn't you bring food with you?"
"Girl, I did bring them, but they didn't seem to like eating them on the boat."
"Then go to the dock and see if there are any fresh small fish and shrimps to buy."
"yes!"
"Lanzhou, even if you don't want to eat, you should drink some rice soup and vegetables. You can't get sick from hunger, you still have to feed the turtle! If you get sick, the turtle will starve, understand?"
When Liu Lanzhou heard this, he silently picked up a bun and started eating it slowly.
Wen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
He told Du Juan beside him: "Buy some fish later and give them to Lan Zhou to feed. But don't feed too much! The road is bumpy and it's not good for him to eat too much."
The man on the black ship was listening to his subordinates' report: "Sir, that family's surname is Wen."
"Wen?" This surname is not common, but he feels familiar... Ah! A few days ago, his mother told him that she wanted to find him a good-looking concubine. Could it be...
Which of the two girls is it? For a moment, I didn't know which one I wanted! Haha, Ehuang and Nvying were like this. The ancients were not lying to me...
The group of people came out, went up to the third floor, entered the room and closed the door.
Qin Lianyue looked at him, unable to suppress the hatred in her heart: Qi Wu is mine, even if I don't want him, I can't let you get away with it! She sneered, turned to Ah Qi and said, "Send your brother over here!"
…
I have cervical spondylosis and feel dizzy...
