Chapter 146 Mrs. Anyuanhou

When the two boats collided, Ye Ximing was pouring tea for Zhou Ran. The boat shook and all the tea spilled outside.

Before Ye Ximing and Zhou Ran could react, there was another violent shaking on the boat. With this shaking, their small boat inevitably capsized.

The moment the boat capsized, Ye Ximing panicked and hurriedly tried to pull Zhou Ran away, but he couldn't swim. After struggling and flopping twice, he only drank a few sips of lake water.

After Zhou Ran saw it, she hurriedly swam to Ye Ximing, took him out of the water, and said anxiously: "Ye Ximing, are you okay?"

Not far away, Gao Rongyue, who was commanding people on the boat and was about to come to rescue people, turned dark again when she saw that Zhou Ran could actually swim.

The little maid next to Gao Rongyue looked at Gao Rongyue's face and asked cautiously: "Miss, what should I do now? Do you still want to go over and save people?"

Gao Rongyue hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Help!"

Anyway, it has come to this point. Saving people can at least leave a good impression in Ye Ximing's heart.

However, before Gao Rongyue's boat could approach the two of them, Zhou Ran had already taken Ye Ximing and swam towards another boat, and on that boat was Mrs. Anyuanhou.

Seeing someone who had fallen into the water swimming towards their boat, Mrs. Anyuan Hou kindly asked someone to help.

When Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing got on the boat all wet, Mrs. Anyuanhou asked the maid next to her to find a spare set of clothes for Zhou Ran to change into.

As for Ye Ximing, there were no male passengers on their ship, so naturally there were no men's clothes. Ye Ximing could only wear his wet clothes for the time being.

Fortunately, although Chunyue Lake is not small, it only takes about a quarter of an hour to row from the center of the lake to the edge. When he reaches the shore, he can ask Zhao Wu to buy some clothes for him and come back to change.

Mrs. Anyuanhou's boat took Zhou Ran and the others to the lake and let them go down.

Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing got off the boat, found a place to pack themselves up, and then returned to the lake and went to the place where they rented the boat to learn about the situation.

The boatman who had just rowed the boat for them had been working with water for so many years, so he knew how to swim. After the boat capsized, he wanted to save Ye Ximing and Zhou Ran, but when he saw that Zhou Ran could also swim, he took Ye Ximing to Anyuanhou. Madam's boat, he didn't care about the two of them anymore and went directly back to the boat rental place.

The boat clearly saw their boat just now, but it still rammed into it. It was obviously intentional. He didn't know who was on the boat. If he went to find someone to reason with, he might be the one who suffered in the end.

Although he is a boatman, the boat does not belong to him. Those boats all belong to the boat rental office. If the boat is knocked over for no reason, the boat rental office has to fight with the person who knocked the boat over.

When Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing arrived at the boat rental place, the owner of the boat that just hit them was also at the boat rental place.

The man sat on the chair and looked generous, "I told you it was accidental. Their boat capsized because they were unlucky. Can you blame me?"

Ye Ximing heard these words as soon as he entered. His face couldn't help but become cold. He looked at the person in front of him and narrowed his eyes.

The steward at the boat rental office looked at this man's attitude and held back his anger. "No matter what, it is a fact that you knocked over our boat and disturbed our guests. How do you think we should handle this?"

"How to deal with it?" The man stared at his little eyes and said, "This is not easy. I will just pay you money. Tell me, how much does it cost?"

Since this person had promised to pay back the money, the manager didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he accepted the money, apologized to Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing, and wanted to end the matter.

Although Ye Ximing had doubts about this matter in his heart, he did not pursue it on his face. He directly followed the steward's wishes and agreed to such a result. But after the man walked away, Ye Ximing immediately asked Zhao Wu to follow him and stared at the man.

After that, he went to the boatman who had just rowed the boat for them and learned about the details from him.

After hearing what the boatman said, Ye Ximing was already sure that the man just knocked over their boat on purpose.

It's just that he and Zhou Ran didn't know that person, and that person had no grudge against them. There must be someone behind the person's actions.

But who is the person behind this?

Ye Ximing thought of Pu Xiuwen first.

It is said that their group of concubines had already dispersed a few days ago, and Pu Xiuwen was elected to the Hanlin Academy for self-examination after being disbanded because of the help of Minister He behind the scenes. When he starts taking office tomorrow, the two of them They will definitely meet each other, but I don’t know what Pu Xiuwen’s expression will be then.

At this time, Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing were no longer in the mood to continue playing. They waited in the carriage for a while. After Zhao Wu came back, they heard from Zhao Wu that the man left the boat rental place and went to see the minister. When they saw the maid next to Miss Fu, both of them looked surprised.

They have no grievances against the lady of Shangshufu. Why did the lady of Shangshufu want to find someone to bump into their boat?

Zhou Ran was angry, but she also knew that even if Ye Ximing won the first prize, there was still a huge gap in status between them and Shangshufu. Even if they approached Miss Shangshufu at this time, it would be of no use.

Zhou Ran clenched her fists, endured the sigh, and said to Ye Ximing: "Let's go back first. Let's leave it like this for now."

Ye Ximing slowly opened Zhou Ran's fisted hand and said softly: "Don't be angry, I will slowly find out about this matter."

Find out why Miss Shangshufu is targeting them. Even if he finds out why he may not be able to do anything to them now, it will not happen in the future.

Zhou Ran nodded and told Ye Ximing, "Don't be impulsive and don't directly confront the minister."

Ye Ximing responded with a smile: "Don't worry, I know."

After that, the two stopped talking about this matter, but brought up Mrs. Anyuanhou.

Zhou Ran said: "Mrs. Marquis Anyuan helped us today, but we didn't thank her in person. Do you think I should go and thank her tomorrow?"

She felt that it was a bit unreasonable not to go to the door to say thank you, but she should go to the door to say thank you. They were from the Marquis Mansion, and their status seemed like they were trying to cling to her.

Ye Ximing thought for a moment and said, "Let's go with the gift. If Mrs. Hou doesn't want to see her, we can just keep the gift."

After saying that, Ye Ximing hesitated and then said, "Why don't you wait until my next vacation and I'll go with you."

Zhou Ran heard this and shook her head with a smile, "I can go by myself. What will it be like to wait for you to go on vacation?"

Officials of the Dashun Dynasty were required to take a bath every ten days. It would be too insincere to wait for Ye Ximing to take a vacation before thanking him.

Ye Ximing also knew that this was inappropriate, but he was a little worried about Zhou Ran.
