wedding dress

Chapter 180 The road is narrow
The servant girl came back and said that Miss Shi was no different, probably because she didn't hear the commotion in the front cabin.Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief.It's nothing more than the three of the Li family's children making a fuss, but if Shi Xiu also makes a fuss, then things will be bad.At any rate, the three of the Li family can train and manage, but can Shi Xiu and the others be able to train or manage?It's really tofu falling into the ash heap-it can't be blown.

Xiaodong felt that time was very hard to bear, and when it was almost dark, Qin Lie sent the man ashore. Both of them smelled of alcohol, talking and laughing far away on the river.

When Qin Lie came back, his footsteps were particularly heavy, and his face was also ugly, as if the person with the bold and hearty laugh just now had nothing to do with him.Xiaodong hurriedly asked someone to bring him the prepared hangover soup, it was sour and hot, Qin Lie drank two bowls in a row, broke out in a sweat, and said with a sigh: "It's really hard to handle."

Xiaodong handed him a hot towel: "How did you know this man? He doesn't look like a kind person."

"I just met after a fight. The first time I ran this road was Brother Wanlong who took me," he wiped his face vigorously twice: "Oh, Brother Wanlong is the native-born father. Huiyan was at that time It's not so beautiful, but there are dozens of people, half of them are old, weak, sick and disabled. Brother Wanlong can defeat them in one fight. But the people in Fenglindu area are very close together. It is difficult, but it will be extremely difficult to pass here again in the future. So we did not kill them all. Later, our ships and goods passed here, and he never made it difficult. I passed by a few times, and his friendship was mediocre. He I can't be moved easily, and I don't want to have a grudge with him, so I will give him [-]% and [-]% every time."

It turned out to be this kind of friendship.

In this way, it is no wonder Qin Lie.After all, doing business is seeking money in harmony, and people like this have to deal with it.

"The boat following us..."

"Oh, they are just borrowing our light. After all, anyone can figure out what kind of loss is due to paying [-]% ​​of the goods or the whole ship is robbed. But most of their ships are private goods, even if they are [-]% of the goods, they will not lose. " Qin Lie rubbed his face: "I'm going to sleep outside, I've had a lot of alcohol today, so don't make trouble at night so you can't sleep well."

Xiaodong rubbed his forehead for him, and said softly, "This man's vision is like a wolf's, he feels very unreliable."

"Well... But if you don't go from here, you have to go around hundreds of miles. The mountain road is still very rugged, and many goods can't be transported at all."

"I heard people say that relying on mountains to eat mountains, is that what he is?"

Qin Lie smiled, and lightly pressed his hand on the back of Xiaodong's hand: "Is it scaring you today? I didn't see him the last two times, but he sent me a letter last night, saying he wanted to talk to me. I don't feel relieved to go to his place, who knows that letting him come over will make things even more troublesome."

"By the way," Xiaodong asked: "He... has a crush on Miss Shi?"

"That's right. When we were drinking just now, he said that he sent someone to send me a message because he wanted me to help find someone. He didn't know Shi Xiu's last name, but from his accent, he could tell that she and I should be together. It's from the same town. As a result..."

"What about now, what does he say?"

"I said that Shi Xiu is not from our family, and I can't be her master. He has always been in a good mood. Anyway, he knows who it is and where he lives. He..."

Although Shi Xiu and Xiaodong are still in a hostile relationship, Xiaodong doesn't think it's a good thing for her to marry a bandit leader.

She wants to get married, of course Xiaodong will be happy.But Shi Xiu is still on their boat, that is to say, they have to be responsible to Shi Xiu.Marrying her to a bandit leader who kills and steals goods, isn't that pushing people into a pit of fire?
This kind of thing, even if Xiaodong experienced ten or eight years, she would not be able to do it.Besides, it is impossible for Qin Lie to do this.He has no love for men and women for Shi Xiu, but he has brother and sister love.Besides, in this era, the friendship between masters is sometimes worth the kindness of parents. How could Qin Lie feel sorry for his master?
They can't agree, but will that Huiyan let go?
This kind of predatory person will know what it means not to force others to make things difficult?Will you know what it means to retreat in spite of difficulties?

"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to do anything to me. Brother Li's daughter and son are on board. If he makes a move, the two sides will form a deadly feud. We have enough people on board. You can rest assured to sleep at night. We will start on the fourth watch." The boat is on its way."

"Well. Be careful too."

Although Qin Lie said so, when Xiaodong fell asleep at night, he hesitated and did not take off his clothes.He only took off his bun, combed it into a braid, and then lay down with his clothes on.At night, the surface of the river was cooler than during the day, Xiaodong thought she might not be able to fall asleep, but she fell asleep after a while, and she fell asleep very deeply. ,

At first I was not used to the ups and downs of the water on the boat, and I always felt unsteady and unsteady.I used to sleep on a particularly solid bed, and the bed was placed on a more solid floor.But after getting used to it, the slight undulation and turbulence of the hull has a particularly reassuring rhythm.There was also a slight sound of water, splashing, splashing, as if a cradle was gently shaking and patted on the body.

She vaguely heard movement outside, and then someone pushed her and hurriedly called: "Princess, princess, wake up."

Xiaodong suddenly felt palpitations and opened his eyes.

Hu's mother was standing by the bed, her face was more serious than ever.

Xiaodong only saw the Hu clan lose his composure once, that was during the King Jingjun Rebellion.

The surrounding area is very quiet... But amidst the sound of the water waves, there are some other sounds vaguely.

The sky should not be bright yet, but the portholes are brightly lit.Xiaodong glanced at Mrs. Hu, Mrs. Hu pushed the window open, and Xiaodong looked out.

In the darkness along the banks on both sides of the river, people tall and short were all dotted with flames. I don't know how many people had surrounded them for thousands of miles.

Xiaodong only felt his scalp go numb.With so many people, even if they didn't rush over to kill people, but just threw torches up, and the wooden boat caught fire, they would definitely die.

"These people..." Xiaodong's voice became hoarse: "Where's Qin Lie?"

"Young master talked to their leader just now, but I still don't know why these people came here."

Xiaodong didn't know what to do, but he comforted Hu in turn: "Mom, don't worry, if they want to kill people and get more money, they would have killed them long ago. They are not here to kill people."

Hu nodded: "The princess said yes."

But despite saying this, the fear in their hearts did not diminish in the slightest.

Xiaodong couldn't help guessing that such a big fight was for money?No, what are you doing for making money?Go straight up and grab it.To kill?Then go straight up to kill, burn the boat.

Is it for Shi Xiu?

While feeling ridiculous, Xiaodong couldn't help shaking his head.

Even if the person surnamed Hui wasn't a lecherous person, he wasn't so infatuated, and even resorted to the trick of being angry at the crown.

The cabin door was knocked twice suddenly, Xiaodong could feel Hu's body tremble, but his voice remained calm: "Who?"

"Mom, Miss Shi wants to see the princess."

--------

I haven't walked for a long time, and my feet are worn out.I took off my shoes at night and saw that there was a lot of blood in the shoes == I was shocked.
