The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 26
The red sun is about to fall, casting brilliant afterglow on the river.

Sitting by the window, Hanzhu watched the smoke rising from the cooking houses on the shore, and the five and six-year-old children went home hand in hand. When they saw a boat, the children would point curiously at the crowd and say something she couldn't hear.

"Sister, are we almost at the Suzhou pier?" Ningzhu asked with little interest while lying on the couch.

The boat sailed for three days, and she could only stay in this small cabin. Of course, she was not used to it. She wanted to go out and have a look, but her sister refused.

Hanzhu nodded, went to sit next to her sister, touched the top of her head and said, "Yes, what would my sister want to eat tonight?"

Ningzhu flattered and said: "I want to eat soup dumplings."

The ship has docked at several piers, and there are various food stalls on the piers. Ningzhu headed back and went far, and indeed ate some fresh food.

Hanzhu smiled, and called Qiulan in to pass the message.

They rented two boats, the boatman in front of them punted the boat, Zhang Fu sat on it and watched the luggage, and Aunt Zhang was also there, cooking for them.On this side of the boat, Uncle Zhang and the man are punting the boat. Uncle Zhang is at the bow, and the man is at the stern. During the day, Uncle Zhang sleeps with him. She and her sister.

Zhang Fu did all the work of going to the pier to buy things.

Zhang Fu's happiest thing every day is to dock. He nimbly carried the food box and jumped onto the pier to buy soup dumplings stuffed with meat for the villain who called himself Ding Er. His family and the girls all ate vegetarian stuffing.Back at the bow, seeing his father standing at the bow to respond, Zhang Fu begged in a low voice: "Father, can you let me go up?"

He didn't talk to her, it was enough to get close and listen to the voice.

Uncle Zhang kept his etiquette, firmly refused, and drove his son away. He handed a food box to King Ding who came up ahead because he wanted to eat. He walked to the boat tent, knocked on the door, and his daughter Qiulan opened it. The curtains were lowered.Uncle Zhang turned back to the bow and saw that King Ding had opened the lid and set up the dishes, so he sat cross-legged and ate with him.

Pretending to be someone has to be what he looks like, and King Ding has led soldiers before. He doesn't care about trivial matters, and he blows cold soup buns, one bite at a time. How can he look like a prince and prince?Seen from the shore, they were just two ordinary boatmen, no one would doubt them.

After eating, he lay down and held the cold river water to wash his mouth. King Ding did not return to the stern for the time being, but leaned lazily on the board, his eyes swept the shore, and chatted with Uncle Zhang, "Uncle Zhang is really loyal, sir. There is no wrong person."

Given the current situation of the Jiang family, it is not surprising that Uncle Zhang's family robbed their sisters of their money, but the whole family did their jobs as servants. Only that Zhang Fu was unruly and really regarded himself as the Jiang family. The son-in-law is dead, and he has been thinking about getting on the girl's boat all day long.

Uncle Zhang sighed, looked at the bright red sunset in the sky, and said: "Master left in a hurry. Two days later, he would not promise the girl to my worthless son. The master promised because he thought highly of me. How could I let you down?" The master's trust?" The master is also out of helplessness, seeing that he is going to go, if he doesn't settle down sooner, the eldest girl will have to observe mourning for three years, what should I do if such a delicate girl has no elders in her family and is targeted by the wicked?It's a pity that the master doesn't know that the eldest girl has long been targeted by that dog officer.

King Ding glanced at the canopy from the corner of his eye.

The eldest girl of the Jiang family has an unbelievably beautiful appearance, but her temperament is even more demure than a real lady. Those noble girls in the capital may not be able to stay out of the cabin for three days when they are reduced to this level. Not only is she quiet, but she also has the ability Keep her playful and active younger sister by her side.

Just as he was watching, a familiar voice suddenly came from in front of him. The voice was familiar, but he didn't understand a single word he said. It seemed to be Hangzhou dialect.

King Ding frowned and looked, and saw a rough-clothed man in his thirties standing at the bow of the boat, and there were two baskets on the ground beside him, which were full of Suzhou specialties.Looking at his appearance again, he has fair complexion, a pair of slender squint eyes, a goatee beard on his chin, and a mole next to his nose.

King Ding looked at the other party playfully.

Uncle Zhang was stunned for a while, then he invited people up, and naturally said to the king: "This is my old friend, shopkeeper Liu, who is doing small business in Suzhou. When he learned that we were going to Shandong, he happened to be going to Shandong as well." Come, I made an appointment in advance to go together, you can take him to settle down later."

King Ding quickly stood up and led the way courteously, "So it's shopkeeper Liu, this way, come here, I'll help you carry your things."

When he spoke the official language, Cheng Yu changed it to the official language, "I'm sorry."

Really let Ding Wang help him carry the two baskets of gifts.

The two passed by the canopy one after the other.

Inside Ningzhu bowed her head to eat soup dumplings, Hanzhu listened attentively, and saw the tall man's back through the gap in the bamboo curtain, she became more and more sure that he was rushing over.

For some reason, Hanzhu suddenly felt much more at ease.Perhaps that laughing Ding Er might be lustful. Although this person is indifferent, he is a gentleman when it comes to men and women, right?With him restraining Ding Er on the boat, even if Ding Er has bad intentions, he will be jealous of him.

King Ding didn't know that he was called a romantic son because of Cheng Yu, and when they got to the stern of the boat, the two sat down to talk.He looked at Cheng Yu carefully, and said curiously: "Okay, your ability to disguise is much better than mine, why are your eyes so small?"

Cheng Yu asked him coldly, "You want to learn?"

King Ding touched his long and narrow phoenix eyes, and joked: "Forget it, my eyes are not as big as yours. If I can't recover, I'm afraid no one will recognize me when I go back. Anyway, everything is cleaned up there. ?”

Cheng Yu nodded, "Dead."

King Ding was not surprised, but said in a deep voice: "Will the servants of the Jiang family come to deliver the letter?" The sisters of the Jiang family were willing to go north with them in order to escape. Although Cheng Yu and Cheng Yu could threaten them to move on, but the other party was unwilling, and it was easy to make mistakes on the road.
