Chapter 165
"It's windy outside, Aunt Bao, go back to the cabin to rest! Jiangnan is far away, and the boat ride is tough. If Auntie falls ill, I don't know how to explain it when I see Uncle Pan in Jiangnan."

Xue Baochai's expression remained unchanged, looking at the moon in the river like a machete hanging above the reflection of the lantern.When a gust of wind blows, the river sparkles, the crescent moon is not shaped, and the lantern on the pole looks like a moon.

Her heart also rippled like a lantern crescent in the river, "Brother Rong doesn't want to see me that much?"

"There's nothing else, I just care about Aunt Bao, and I'm afraid that Auntie will be cold." Brother Rong laughed, and said: "It's not early, and I won't disturb Auntie's mood of enjoying the moon."

Brother Rong sighed inwardly, and hoped that Sister Feng would be more disciplined tonight, that two of them would deal with each other every day, no matter how strong a man was, he couldn't handle it.

"Wait." Seeing Brother Rong turn and leave, Xue Baochai felt sour for no reason.I had waited for him on the ship deck for a long time, worried about him for a long time, but now I saw him but had to leave.

I felt very uncomfortable.

Was it really that attractive to him?

"Aunt Bao, what's the matter?" Brother Rong stopped when he heard the sound, he remembered Sister Feng's explanation in his heart.Don't get close to Xue Baochai, and take advantage of what happened in the south of the Yangtze River.Sister Feng ruthlessly looked for an opportunity to bite off the thing, but it was not worth it.

He also doesn't have a deep friendship with Xue Baochai, and has always been treated as an ordinary relative.Of course, Baochai is very beautiful, and occasionally she will be moved by her heart.That kind of heartbeat is not emotional heartbeat, but caused by certain specific situations.To put it bluntly, sometimes when lust comes up, there will be thoughts of taking advantage.

Most men will always have that moment, but they seldom show it, and even less have actions.

It may be because the other party glanced back or smiled slightly.Only throbbing at that moment, and then for various reasons, this distracting thought will be left behind.

The two turned around and looked at each other, relying on the faint light of the lantern on the boat, they could barely see each other's faces clearly.

Xue Baochai was standing by the railing of the ship armor, with a lantern hanging above his head and a crescent moon hanging behind him.Under the light, Baochai's face is hazy, and her appearance is even more beautiful.

Jia Rong admitted that at this glance, his heart definitely jumped twice more suddenly.

Xue Baochai was even more nervous, and she didn't know why she really cried out.That's what I said from the bottom of my heart, but it's good to think that Brother Tong Rong is standing on the deck and looking at the night.

"It's not an important matter." Baochai replied softly, anxious to find something to talk about.Seeing that Jia Rong was still waiting for the next words, he continued, "Are you going to visit the cement kiln in Ping'an Prefecture in the next few days?"

"Let's listen to Master Shisan's arrangement. The cement kiln is not far from here. If I really want to go there, I will be there in a day's walk from the canal to the Daqing River tomorrow."

Xue Baochai asked: "Brother Rong, don't you want to go there and have a look? See what it looks like after a few months."

Jia Rong said with a smile: "How can a large kiln be built in a short time? Even if you want to go there, you know it's no different, but they delayed the process."

Baochai nodded, it was just a casual topic.I didn't want to talk about specifics, but just fooling around for the time being.

Jia Rong heard her mention the cement kilns in Ping'an Prefecture, and she also wanted to go there.The boundary of Ping'an Prefecture is chaotic, and there is a scenic spot called "Liangshan Po" not far from the cement kiln. Although there are no [-] heroes of Liangshan there, there are holy people hidden in the boundary.

Do you want Thirteen Lord to go to Liangshanbo to deter the thieves in Pingan Prefecture?
Brother Rong shook his head secretly, and let go of this thought again.This trip to the south of the Yangtze River is to solve the disaster of the Yellow River and the Huaihe River. Although there are many people on the fleet, it is difficult to intimidate the holy religion.After all, the entire fleet doesn't even have a single cannon.

Alas... If you have a few cannons, you have to go to Ping'an Prefecture anyway.

The thieves of the holy religion have always been in a corner, trying their best to attract believers.There's no need to mess with them right now, let's go down the canal to the south of the Yangtze River.

The two of them had nothing to talk about, and just stood quietly on the deck.

"I'm so excited, no wonder I didn't see you back." Wang Xifeng came out of the cabin, saw the two standing side by side, and the vinegar jar was overturned in an instant.

Jia Rong's complexion changed slightly, and she explained embarrassingly: "Haven't rested yet? I thought you were already asleep, so I didn't bother you."

Ever since Wang Xifeng left Jia's house, she didn't even pretend to be.As long as the rest of the Xue family is away, even if Baochai is on the boat, she will not hide it.Like swearing sovereignty in front of Xue Baochai, it directly shows her extraordinary relationship with Jia Rong.

Xue Baochai's heart was empty, and her high spirits were also spoiled by Sister Feng's appearance.With a chuckle, he said: "My sister came just in time, my sister is also sleepy right now, I will save a place for my sister and Brother Rong."

"As a layman like me, I always have a bad atmosphere, but I can't subdue such a refined taste." Wang Xifeng said with a self-mockery, alludingly. "You are not afraid of the cold, so just continue to stand outside, and I, Heping, will rest first."

Xue Baochai said with a smile: "My sister is the real see-through person, she can see everything clearly. Whoever wants to say that my sister has a bad atmosphere, not to mention that Brother Rong disagrees, even my sister will definitely not agree."

Wang Xifeng hummed inwardly, but smiled on his face. "No wonder my sister was very popular with the old lady when she was in the mansion."

Xue Baochai's smile stagnated, and said lightly: "Compared with my sister, my sister still has a lot to learn."

Brother Rong couldn't understand what the two said, but he could feel that there was something hidden in every sentence between them.Sneaking away as a respect, said: "You guys are chatting, I'll go back to the cabin to rest first."

Regardless of what Sister Feng and Baochai on the deck thought, he left without looking back.

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "My sister also rests earlier, my sister is getting older, she won't be able to stay up long at night, so I won't be here to accompany my sister."

How long can you stand?
Who made a fuss until midnight yesterday, and was still learning how to sing birds.

Xue Baochai went back to the room leisurely with her heart blocked.

Wang Xifeng knocked on Jia Rong's door.

It's time to come!
Uncle Rong sighed helplessly. "coming."

"Tell me honestly, have you ever thought of her wrongly?" Wang Xifeng snorted.

"She treats everyone the same. She just chatted outside for a while, and she has no bad intentions." Brother Rong said truthfully, "I have been working hard for several nights, what else can I think about."

Wang Xifeng spat at him and laughed again. "Are you unhappy at night?"

Brother Rong blushed.In the future, you have to take Xiaoqueer with you when you go out, otherwise you will be despised by women.

"You will look good in the future."

"I'm tired too, so I won't disturb you today. Just lie down and talk!"

How nice it is.Brother Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and patted the bed to signal for Sister Feng to come over.

"Don't make trouble." Sister Feng patted Jia Rong's hand away.

Jia Rong has never been an honest person, and she has a thick skin, and she will let go when she is disgusted.Sticking to Sister Feng's head, he said: "This time when I go to the south of the Yangtze River, I must go back and forth between Huai'an and Yangzhou. I have to go to Lin's house. Is there a letter from Yangzhou recently? Is Second Uncle Lian still there?"

The governor of water transportation is in Huai'an, all the salt transportation is in Yangzhou, and the two rivers are in Jinling.

Since the Thirteenth Lord is in the south of the Yangtze River, the water transportation and salt administration must be inspected.It happened that Lin Ruhai was seriously ill, and Lianghuai was a place where salt lessons were important, and King Zhongshun also came with multiple tasks.

Jia Rong went to Yangzhou, could it be true that she didn't visit the Lin family?When Wang Xifeng went south to Jinling, he also planned to go through Yangzhou.

It will be embarrassing to meet Jia Lian at that time.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Are you scared now? A bastard who dares to steal from his aunt, is he still afraid of a second uncle?"

Jia Rong pinches, making Sister Feng scream.He said, "It's always embarrassing when we meet."

"Let's take one step at a time. So what if he knows? He can still spread the word, and even if he is angry, he can only be dumb. Maybe he is still proud, and there will be no one to control his joy in the future."

Brother Rong said: "When you arrive in Jiangnan Province, you still have to avoid suspicion. Feng'er and Aunt Bao went to Jinling first, and Master Shisan and I dealt with the affairs of Huai'an and Yangzhou. We will also go to Jinling to find you."

"Come on. You're a bodyguard, so you don't have time. It's not about where the prince goes, you follow. Don't worry about Jinling's affairs. With me, the Xue family can't make any ghosts."

Seeing Wang Xifeng's confident expression, Brother Rong was speechless.He is still convinced of Wang Xifeng's ability, especially for those who are easy to catch such conspiracies and tricks, and are naturally sensitive.

…………

Jiangnan Province, Yangzhou Prefecture.

"Why did she go to the south of the Yangtze River? Shouldn't she be in Shenjing?" Jia Lian, who sent the letter to Shenjing, froze there. After half a year of good life, why did this evil star go to the south of the Yangtze River?

Jia Lian said to himself: "Could it be that the evil star came to catch me?"

"It shouldn't be! She is majestic in Shenjing, so she doesn't care about me. Besides, my uncle is sick in bed, and no one from the Lin family reported to Shenjing."

Second Master Lian couldn't figure out why Wang Xifeng came to Jiangnan.

Although the letter said that Sister Feng cooperated with Xue's family and Ningguo Mansion to build a cement kiln and wanted to build a factory in Jinling.

But he still couldn't believe it.It is enough for the Xue family and Ningguo mansion to build the kiln. She is a housekeeper of the west mansion and does not take it with her in the inner house. What is she doing outside?
Is it because I have been away for too long, and I have become suspicious?
Jia Lian's head was blown!

Ask someone from the Lin family, "Is Master Xue still in Yangzhou?"

The servants of the Lin family replied: "Uncle Pan went back to Jinling to do some shopping two days ago. The second master didn't come back that night, and Uncle Pan had an urgent schedule, so he didn't wait for the second master to come back."

When the second master Lian received a letter from Shenjing, he lost all thoughts of having fun.

hurry!

Do you want to hide outside for a few days?
That won't work, no excuses.

Uncle Lin was still ill, so how could he just run away.

Sad.

Jia Lian hated it again. In the past, he just took care of himself in the mansion, and he chased him to the south of the Yangtze River.There is no old lady in Jiangnan to protect her, so she smashed the vinegar pot one day, let's see if she is still majestic.

"Sister Feng and Brother Rong are coming to Yangzhou?" Lin Daiyu smiled when she heard the news.Hastily asked: "When will you come, and how many days will it take?"

Zijuan said with a smile: "Master Xiaorong came with King Zhongshun. They have a big battle, and their calculations should not be as fast as when we came back. In the middle of June, they can also come to Yangzhou. At that time, the girl can also see her." It’s time for Master Xiao Rong.”

"Anyone who chews his tongue, who wants to see him?" Lin Daiyu was thinner than when she left Shenjing, and she also grew a lot taller, looking like a big girl.

Xueyan jokingly said: "Girl Tonglian is good to my second grandma. Of course I want to see my second grandma."

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she became more and more depressed.Ask the girl Chunxian to ask for the original letter. .

"I haven't received a letter for more than half a year. I also said that I was thinking about someone. I'm afraid I've forgotten it." Lin Daiyu read the letter, went back to the room and took the little man carved by Uncle Xiaorong and sulked. "He is promising now and has become the prince's personal bodyguard. Even if he arrives in Yangzhou, he has no time to come to a house like ours as a guest."

Zijuan said with a smile: "My lord is not only the Prime Minister of Shuitian Mansion, but also the Ministry of Internal Affairs to supervise the salt department. Now that you come to Yangzhou, you have to come to our mansion anyway. At that time, Uncle Xiaorong also came with you."

"It's so rare to come with someone else?" Lin Daiyu snorted, and finally set up the wood carving in the shape of Xiao Daiyu, and went out of the yard with a faint smile hidden in the corner of her mouth.

The three servant girls Xueyan, Zijuan, and Chunxian didn't speak a word, but hurriedly followed Miss Lin's pace.

One of them thought, the girl didn't smile as much after hearing the news about Master Bao.

"Smile?"

Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, turned the corner of his mouth, and asked, "But this?"

"Forehead……"

Jia Rong on the deck stopped the paintbrush in her hand, and said helplessly, "Can you be kind, your smile is easy to see, and there should be no misunderstanding. I thought you had something in mind, so you have a sneer on your face."

Sister Feng glanced at Baochai next to Jia Rong, was she thinking about something?The two get along well, why did she run over to join in the fun, and didn't see that even Ping'er stayed behind obediently.

No eyesight!
Xue Baochai didn't know what Sister Feng was upset about, so she smiled beside Brother Rong and said, "Sister sits on the bow of the boat, letting the golden sunset shine on her face, she looks like a fairy in heaven. Chang'e in the Moon Palace is only as beautiful as this."

Sister Feng said: "My sister's mouth is the most pleasing, and my sister is no better than my sister."

Baochai was not annoyed when she heard this, but instead pointed out beside Jia Rong.It made Wang Xifeng even angrier, and the faint sneer at the corner of his mouth remained unchanged.

Jia Rong had a vague premonition, put away the paintbrush, and rubbed her stomach in a gesture.Said: "Are you hungry? It's time for them to bring food."

Xue Baochai said: "When we come to Zhending Mansion, we have to try several famous dishes of Zhending Mansion. Last time when I went to Beijing with my mother and elder brother, I also stopped here. I know that there is a dish here called eager meatballs, which has a name of The word 'hot' is added, but it is a cold dish. Although it is called meatballs, it is not round. Very interesting!"

Eager meatballs?

Brother Rong saw Wang Xifeng squinting his red phoenix eyes slightly, and his eyes swept down under him, and he felt a chill in his lower body.

It's not good to eat anything, but I want to eat the cut meatballs.

Brother Rong hurriedly said: "Is there anything else?"
