lady, please calm down

Chapter 215 It's Really Hard

February sixteenth.

Get up at the hour of the hour and pack your bags.

At the beginning of noon, the people who returned to Caizhou gathered at the water station of Liujiasi, five miles south of the city.

Compared with that time, the team there was several times larger.

In addition to more than 60 members of the Zhao clan, there are more than [-] artisan households.

Even with the method of going out of the city in batches, when so many people gathered at Shuiyi Ferry, it still attracted the attention of many passers-by.

This was also one of the reasons why Chen Jingan asked Chen Chu to leave Beijing as soon as possible.

Taking away many people at once is easy to attract unnecessary attention.

Unlike the Zhao family who boarded the ship quietly, the artisans without a leader and lack of organization were in chaos when they boarded the ship.

Some were separated from their families and called for their children, and some were accidentally squeezed into the river.

Looking at it, Chen Chu had a headache.

At the end of noon, amidst the noise, boarding was finally completed.

Shopkeeper Hu prepared four large ships of [-] materials yesterday, full of passengers, sailing southward
The majestic Tokyo is drifting away.

Among the craftsmen who crowded the bow, the excited discussions faded away, and then there were three or two low sobbing sounds.

The days trapped in Tokyo were hard, but for the next stop, Caizhou, they were also full of fear of the unknown.

The Erlang of Qin Yongtai's family, Qin Shengwu, became acquainted with Maodan in just a few days. These days, Qin Erlang frequently recounted Luliuxu, Tongshan, and Caizhou that Maodan was talking about.

Qin Erlang said that Luliuxu is a place where everyone can eat, wear warm, and have books to read.

Tongshan is the most prosperous county within a few hundred miles, even compared to Tokyo, it is only a little bit behind. Of course, this is pure fucking bragging.

No matter how prosperous Tongshan is, it can't be compared with Tokyo City. Mao Dan said this just because of the competitiveness of young people.

After Qin Erlang's reprocessing with added oil and vinegar, the skeptical artisans are even less convinced
How dare a county compare with Tokyo?
Besides, there is no place in the world where everyone can eat well, wear warm clothes and have a good place to read. Is it possible that Luliuwei is a paradise?
In the tangled psychology of anxiety and anticipation, the big ship sailed away, and the city of Tokyo gradually disappeared.

Night, Xu time.

After the meal, most of the people stepped out of the cabin to take a walk on the deck to breathe, only Tan's mother and daughter hid in the cabin and closed the door.

Chen Jinyu curled up in a chair with her arms around her knees, looking through the window at the receding vast land along the coast and the fishing lights in the night, with a smile on her lips, peaceful and elegant.

Yesterday and today were the most relaxing two days since she had a private meeting with Chen Chu in the back garden of the official residence years ago.

There is no other reason, but because the two of them pierced the window paper when they saw each other off in the early morning yesterday.

In recent months, she and Chen Chu have been passing letters to each other in private, and they have also visited Tokyo at night, but the two have been in an ambiguous stage of testing each other.

Although Chen Jinyu hinted secretly, she never really expressed her heart, and Chen Chu didn't make any definite promises.

It's all right now, finally before returning home
Thinking of yesterday's scene, Chen Jinyu's face was hot for a while, and she subconsciously cupped her cheeks with her hands that were cooled by the river wind to cool down her face.

Uncle kisses me now, so he can't pretend to be confused anymore.

In the future, how to save the family's face and resign the marriage, how to persuade parents, all need to be taken care of by my uncle, anyway, I don't care, hehe.

The relaxed Chen Jinyu huddled in the chair and let out a chirp, like a little mouse who had successfully stolen oil.

Yesterday morning, Chen Jinyu cried a lot in front of Chen Chu after the incident, but if it was a lie to say that she was completely unprepared, otherwise, she would not make an ambiguous act of biting a knot.

She just turned active into passive.

Who let my uncle refuse to help me after taking advantage of me, and Ayu had to ask to help me. Chen Jinyu justified himself like this.

In fact, a few days ago, she used Tibetan poems to ask Chen Chu to meet in the middle of the night, just to let the latter figure out how not to return to his hometown in Yingchuan after leaving Tokyo.

Just like now, although Chen Jinyu didn't say anything, Chen Chu had temporarily changed his route, and it was not going his way to return home by boat again.

'Tuk tuk ~'

While thinking, there was a knock on the cabin door, and Mrs. Tan came out from the inner cabin, "Who?"

"Sister-in-law, it's me."

When Mrs. Tan heard the sound, her first reaction was to turn her head and look at her daughter. Chen Jinyu, who was guilty of a guilty conscience, tightened her heart, and then remembered that her mother didn't see it at the time, so why are you staring at me so well?
"Sit down! Didn't you hear anyone!"

Mrs. Tan scolded in a low voice, and Chen Jinyu, who was half a beat slower than usual, realized that her mother was talking about her sitting posture, and quickly slid down from the chair to straighten her slightly wrinkled clothes.

Only then did Mrs. Tan nod to Madam Zhang, and the latter stepped forward to open the hatch.

"Uncle came so late, do you have something to do?" Although Tan was polite, the implication was a bit, "Don't you think it's abrupt for you to come so late?" 'meaning in.

Indeed, she was angry.

At the beginning, it was agreed that when Chen Chu went to Beijing, he would take their mother and daughter back home along the way.

Unexpectedly, he was abducted to Tokyo in a daze.

Come on, come on, send them back to Yingchuan as planned, it will be considered the result, and now we have to return to Caizhou by the same route.

What's even more exasperating is that Chen Jing'an, the second younger brother who had promised to go back to his hometown together, decided to go back to Caizhou with Chen Chu first. As for when he will return home, there is no certainty.

If it weren't for seeing the robbers with his own eyes last year and being frightened, Tan almost decided to take his daughter on the road by himself.

After spending a month, Tan's somewhat belated comprehension made such a big circle, just to create time for uncle and Ayu to get along?

I am a tool man!
Originally, she thought that this matter was just because of her daughter's enthusiasm for shaving her head, but now it seems that this little brother, my husband, is probably not pure in his thoughts!

My daughter is young and ignorant, uncle, you are already an adult, why are you messing around like this!

Mrs. Tan glanced at Chen Chu resentfully, and Brother Chen was hairy all over, and hurriedly said: "Madam, this time I temporarily changed to the waterway, the fact is that the craftsmen have hundreds of family members, plus the Zhao clan, most of them are old and weak women and children , If you travel by foot, I don't know how long it will take.

Furthermore, the older ones couldn't stand the long journey, the wind, the food and the camp, so they took the waterway.I delayed my sister-in-law's return home, so my younger brother came here to make amends."

Chen Jinyu, who was standing behind Mrs. Tan and Mrs. Zhang, stuck out her tongue and wrinkled her eyebrows and made a grimace when she heard the words.

Inside the cabin, only Chen Chu could see it from the perspective of Chen Chu, so he couldn't help being a little surprised. This girl appeared to be gentle and courteous on the outside, but she was actually a mischievous and playful character, but it was covered up by the strict family style.

Chen Chu's shift of gaze for a brief moment also aroused the suspicion of the wary Tan Shi. She couldn't help but turned her head and looked over, but saw her daughter folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen, standing obediently behind her, looking at her nose and heart. Be obedient and clever.

Noticing anything unusual, Mrs. Tan turned around and sighed, "Uncle, don't feel guilty. We, mother and daughter, can make plans after we return to Caizhou."

What Chen Chu said was indeed true, and besides, he was her husband's greatest reliance in Caizhou Tongzhi, so Tan would not really blame him.

"Mrs. Xie Xie understands."

"Uncle, sit down for a while, and grandma Zhang will make tea."

He personally came to the door and explained that, in order to maintain the relationship between Chen Chu and her husband, Mrs. Tan had to show basic hospitality etiquette.

She got busy here, but Chen Jinyu, who was still standing by the window, remembered what her mother said just now, "After returning to Caizhou, our mother and daughter will make plans", so when Mrs. Tan turned around, she mouthed to Chen Chu : I won't go, you have to control me
Ouch, Chen Jinyu, who has been pitiful in Tokyo these days, suddenly became stiff because of being kissed.

Chen Chu also took advantage of the opportunity of Tan's back, smiled and replied with his mouth: I don't care, I can find a way by myself.
"!!!"

The cherry lips are sullen, and the almond eyes are angry.

Everyone has kissed, why don't you admit it!

'I told my mother, you kissed me'

'Go away.'

Continue to communicate silently.

The furious Chen Jinyu gave Chen Chu a vicious look, and immediately said, "Mother!"

"What's wrong?" Tan turned around.

Chen Jinyu glanced at Chen Chu from the corner of his eye, and saw that the latter was still watching her performance with a smile on his face, unable to get off the tiger, so he could only continue, "Uncle yesterday."

Speaking of this, Chen Jinyu deliberately paused, and took the opportunity to observe Chen Chu.

"What happened to uncle yesterday?" Tan asked strangely.

The unmoving Chen Chu finally discouraged Chen Jinyu, "Uncle went to court yesterday, isn't the hall majestic?"

"Silly girl, mother has never been to court, you can directly ask uncle, why do you ask me?" Mrs. Tan was even more puzzled.

"Hehe, it's magnificent."

Naturally, Chen Chu would not ignore Chen Jinyu, but this girl beat his chest during the incident yesterday, and then cried aggrievedly afterwards.

It's obviously your affection and my intention, so I have to make myself a victim.

Today I want to use this to make fun of Brother Chen.
If it is handled by a little girl, I will be too sorry for the eleven first loves I talked about back then!

At a young age, he has the potential to order tea. It needs to be adjusted as soon as possible.

Leaving Beijing on the [-]th, going south along the Cai River into the Ying River, and going down the river, a day or two faster than when I came here.

On the 22nd, he entered the Huai River and took a small boat with [-] materials to go upstream into the Ruhe River.

After a few more days, we arrived at Caizhou East Wharf at noon on the 26th.

One back and one back, after January and two days.

Since Caizhou city had been notified in advance, many people were already waiting here at the wharf outside the city.

On the shore, Mao'er in a cherry red cross-neck skirt with large sleeves was surrounded by healthy women.

Although the head is not tall, but the graceful aura is not low
Before the boat docked, Chen Chu was attracted by this delicate figure early on. Tsk tsk tsk, whose little wife is this.

After all, today's cats are different than ever before.

That's why she was wearing a red dress. This was the first time Chen Chu saw her.

Cats usually wear white, light yellow, light blue and other plain colors. Although simple and elegant is good, but after looking at it for a long time, I always feel that it is less lively.

Chen Chu silently calculated in his heart, and then remembered that the cat's guard is over.
The three-year system means that after the two-year period expires, one full month will be added, and the No. 20 six-month period will be considered complete.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the boat had just landed, and before disembarking and putting the boards away, Chen Chu jumped off the boat first.

Cat, standing in front of the crowd, saw the officials rushing over, with a happy smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Officials, traveling thousands of miles, the journey is hard. Well, ah!"

The dignified Zhao Xiaoniang hadn't finished her welcome speech, but the 'reckless' husband had already picked him up by the waist and spun him around a few times.
Mao'er thought it was inappropriate at first, and after a symbolic earning, she got rid of the official's childishness and even laughed along with her.

One is the commander of the capital of Caizhou, and the other is the imperial order of Bapin'an. They are both well-known figures in Caizhou's territory, but at the moment they are like two children, without any scruples.

Standing on the bow of the boat with her mother, Chen Jinyu felt in a daze. This month, Chen Chu didn't have a woman by her side, so she pretended to be an ostrich and deliberately didn't think about it.

At this time, seeing the husband and wife showing their love openly and aboveboard, my heart was sore, and I wanted to hide back in the cabin when my mood was fading.

Don't want to, but Tan took the scene in front of her as a negative teaching material, immediately stopped her daughter, and said in a low voice: "Look! This is the treatment of a lady in the main room. Have you seen Aunt Chen over there?"

Tan quietly pointed to the shore. Over there, Chen Chu hugged the cat around, and Yunong stood pitifully a foot away from them, as if she wanted to speak, but hesitated.

Although Mrs. Tan didn't say it clearly, the cryptic meaning was that although Zhao An was not from a high family background, the position of the eldest lady of the Chen family was very stable. The women next to the Chen family even wanted to talk to Chen Dutong after a long absence. You have to wait for An Ren to finish making out with Chen Dutong before going forward. Can you bear this kind of grievance?

No, as soon as Tan's words fell, Chen Chu on the shore approached Yunong with the cat in his arms, and smacked the cheeks of the two of them one after another.

Now, Yu Nong was happy, but the big girls and daughters-in-law on the bank covered their eyes in embarrassment, why did a strange thing get mixed into the crowd?

Oh, it turned out to be the eldest son.

If the hug just now can be regarded as the ecstasy after reunion after a long absence, such a public kiss can be described as unrestrained.

Maoer knew that there were still many Caizhou officials on the shore, and worried that the officials would lose their dignity, she quickly broke away from her arms and changed the subject: "Officials, officials, where are my uncle and grandma?"

Chen Chu let go of the two of them, and looked back, the clever white-haired mouse had brought Qin Yongtai's family not far away to wait.

"Uncle, aunt, come here." Chen Chu called out from a distance.

This sound immediately attracted the attention of many people.

The craftsmen who were disembarking, the officials and family members watching on the shore all looked over.

It is not a secret that Zhao An's family background is not high.

But the family members of the officials were still surprised when they heard Chen Chu call the family uncle and aunt.

Although Qin Yongtai's family wore new clothes, the overly thin figure, dark face and slightly looser new clothes made them look a little funny.

Coupled with the habitual slumping and bowing, restrained and afraid, the family of four look like country bumpkins wearing monkeys.

There was a burst of low-pitched discussion among the officials and family members watching on the shore, interspersed with two titters
This movement made Qin Yongtai's family even more restrained, and they didn't know where to put their hands and feet.

Chen Chu frowned. Looking back, several officials' wives gathered together and pointed in this direction. A woman in the middle said something, her eyebrows beaming.

Chen Chu didn't know the woman, but he knew the husband standing beside her.

With a wink, Mao Dan and White Mouse immediately stepped forward, and Chen Chu whispered, "You two are very close to Li Zhuanzhi."

"Order!"

The two walked over immediately, one of them took Li Zhuanzhi's shoulder and turned aside, "Li Zhuanzhi, take a step to talk, hehe"

"I'm afraid this relative is not a beggar. Hey, an uneducated peasant girl can be a lady in charge of a whole house, and I don't know what tricks she used back then."

The enthusiastic Mrs. Li Bozhi was talking about Mrs. Dutong, unaware of her husband's departure.

Mao'er was afraid that he had guessed what the female relatives who were talking about were talking about, so his face sank, and he stepped forward like a puff, and raised his breath and said in a soft voice: "I have met my uncle and aunt, I have worked hard all the way."

The more you look down on me, the more I want to be like this.

Compared with before, cats nowadays are not afraid of them gossiping. What's wrong with my background, my family officials don't dislike me, I'm doing your shit!

But her actions frightened Qin Yongtai's family.

In [-], in his memory, Mao'er was still a little girl with two braids tied up. When she saw him, she would always call out in a childish voice, "Uncle, Uncle, buy caramel for Mao'er."

She really couldn't match up with this fairy-like graceful lady in front of her!

"The head of the house, like, like a embroidered lady!"

Yan Shi behind him gently pushed Qin Yongtai's arm, wanting the latter to recognize him quickly.

For her, the cat is not only a niece, but also a reliance when she came to Caizhou.
After being reminded by his mother-in-law, Qin Yongtai took a closer look, and found that the girl's eyebrows and eyes were indeed somewhat similar to those of her younger sister, especially those pair of charming peach blossom eyes.

Qin Yongtai's lips trembled for a while, as if to shout but he didn't say it.

Seeing his father's appearance, Qin Shengwu became anxious for a while, stepped forward decisively, looked at Mao'er who was about the same size as himself, and said, "Are you my sister Mao'er? Do you remember me, I am Sheng Wu"

"Sheng Wu! You are so old!"

"That's right. When my sister and aunt left Beijing, I was only four or five years old. After a few years, I must grow taller."

At this time, Qin Yongtai finally spoke, trembling, "Are you really my cat? Are you really my mother's cat? Where's the tiger head?"

After being separated for many years, Mao'er's impression of his uncle is only a few fragments. As soon as we met, we couldn't talk about deep feelings, but he said "my cat, my mother's cat", which instantly awakened Mao'er's heart Deep blood emotions.

Over the years, only Chen Chu has said 'my cat'. The cat likes the officials calling her that. A little pampering, let the cat know that although her parents are gone, she is not alone. Man, she has a home.

Mao'er's eyes turned red, and he confirmed again: "Uncle, it's me, I'm Mao'er, you have suffered all these years."

This sentence broke Qin Yongtai's defenses in an instant. He was in his decades and cried like a baby who was not weaned. I don’t know how much the cat has been wronged.”

Well, this sentence made the cat couldn't stop crying.

Mao'er doesn't feel that she has been wronged all these years, because the officials have treated her very well. However, she also has many things she doesn't understand, and there are many things she doesn't know. Others have been taught by her mother, but she has to figure it out by herself.

I can't talk about grievances.

But, parents are gone, growing up alone is really hard work.
