Chapter 22

You Xiang raised her eyes and looked at the rosy-faced young man opposite, it was obvious that she had said so many words to the extreme, at this moment even her neck was tinged with red, and she didn't know where to put her eyes.She forced a smile, nodded gratefully, continued to look at the end of the river, and waited quietly.

Waiting until dusk, Youxiang sighed helplessly, it seemed that today was hopeless again.Suddenly heard a few exclamations, Mo Laifu waved to her from afar, she followed the sound, and saw a boat swaying at the end of the river, and half of the setting sun shone on the side of the boat. On the pennant, there was a mustache embroidered on the bright and dark red flag, and Youxiang's eyes hurt from the light of the setting sun, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

Old Man Gao was the last one to disembark, looking at his adoptive daughter on the deck, he suddenly felt as if he had been in another world. He never imagined that in his later years, he would still be able to enjoy this kind of family happiness that he never expected.

You Xiang felt relieved when she saw old man Gao, she didn't rush to meet him, but just stood silently in the corner and watched.

Old man Gao drank the soy milk in the bottle. Although it was already completely cold, he felt his chest was as warm as spring.When I got off the boat, I impatiently gave all the two taels of silver I just got to my daughter. I was carrying half a catty of meat in my hand. It was forced to be given to him by Lao Mo in the kitchen when I was about to get off the boat. The meat is stewed for my daughter, and I feel sweet in my heart.

The two had dinner, chatted about the recent situation, and then fell silent.You Xiang pressed the money in her sleeve with her hand, looked at old man Gao and said: "Father, you are tired all the way, so you can live in the main house tonight, tomorrow I will ask the Mo family to help us repair the firewood house, so that we can spend the winter. On market day, I will go to the city to buy quilts and clothes so that Daddy won’t suffer from the cold when he comes back.”

Old man Gao just smiled and gave up. He now has a ruddy complexion, and his eyes are especially bright. He is much more energetic than before. Obviously, he is living a good life on the boat.He took out a small bag from his feet and asked Youxiang to come over to have a look, and said in an uncertain tone: "When loading and unloading from the ship, a bag of seeds was accidentally scratched. No one picked up the seeds, so I picked them up carefully, and the manager said they were dirty, and they didn’t look good, so he gave them to me, and he told me they were brassica seeds, which can be used to extract oil..."
