The wind was calm and the sea was calm, and a crescent moon slowly rose from the river. The pale yellow crescent moon was like the tender yellow leaf buds in spring. After being washed several times by the waves, it fell to people's eyes fresh and lovely.
Lin Jinrong stood on the bow of the boat and looked at the flickering bonfire on the riverside in the distance. She gently leaned towards Lu Yan beside her. Lu Yan calmly took a step towards her, quietly held her hand and talked with her.
They are closely attached to each other. Each other's body temperature is transmitted to each other through their clothes, making their hearts feel warm and gentle.
"The moonlight is beautiful tonight." Lu Yan secretly played with Lin Jinrong's fingers, gently tickling them in her palm, but the expression on his face could not be more serious.
Lin Jinrong smiled and rubbed against him intentionally or unintentionally, and said softly: "It's a pity that I can't enjoy it alone with you."
The terrain along the way was narrow, and there were many people and things to do. Not to mention being intimate, there were not many opportunities to be alone. The two of them looked at the moon alone, but they squeezed out every opportunity. Lu Yan felt as if there were dozens of people in his heart.
The little hands were scratching, which made him extremely itchy and uncomfortable. Lin Jinrong rubbed against him twice, which made him want to go crazy even more. He couldn't help but grab Lin Jinrong's hand, put it to his teeth, and bit it.
Lin Jinrong was half coquettish, half surprised, and gave him a low cry, pushing him angrily: "What are you doing? Let others see it."
Seeing how she was pretending... Lu Yan glared at Lin Jinrong hatefully and said, "You are deliberately trying to trick me like this."
"What's wrong with me just punishing you? If you're not convinced, you'll punish me too." Lin Jinrong couldn't help but laugh, pointing to the sparkling river and said softly: "Hey, I did it again that night after I waited for you for a long time.
The difference between the original dream and the dream was that the river water was hot, and strangely enough, I smelled a strong smell of urine. It turned out that it was your son who peed on me."
Lu remained silent and chuckled softly.
Lin Jinrong looked up at him and thought he was really good-looking.
"I'm really jealous of him." Lu Yan lowered his smile and looked at her, and said softly: "Don't have such strange dreams again in the future. You see, I'm right next to you and Yilang. I definitely won't
I’ll leave you alone.”
Lin Jinrong looked into his eyes and whispered: "I believe you." But you have other responsibilities, just like me, I also have my own responsibilities, so although I believe in you, I am no longer blind and absolute.
I rely on you, I rely on myself.
Lu Yan gently stroked the top of Lin Jinrong's hair and whispered: "Arong, you really make me feel at ease. God treats me well."
Lin Jinrong said solemnly: "God is indeed not kind to you. It is not kind to us."
"Are you tired?" Lu Yan took off his cloak and put it on her: "Let's stand a little longer." Although he was very tired, he just wanted to stay with her for a little longer.
"I'm tired, but I'm not tired with you." Lin Jinrong motioned for him to put his cloak back on: "I'm not cold, I'm wearing a lot of clothes." She took his hand to touch the seam of the cotton-padded jacket she wore.
The little jacket full of gold beads showed off: "There are many beads the size of a fingernail. Although it is not as rare as the one given by my grandmother, there is no problem for the whole family to eat and drink."
"Have you been wearing this jacket since you left home?" Lu Yan squeezed it twice, then tried it by lifting her collar, watching her hesitate to speak.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Lin Jinrong saw that he had a strange look on his face and seemed to be blaming him, so he couldn't help complaining: "Why are you looking at me like this? It's okay if you don't expect it. I'm so considerate and yet you still look at me like this.
Don’t the whole family have food and drink? Your father has three beautiful little wives."
Wearing this heavy jacket, she calmly withstood the interrogation and search by the gangsters, walked out of Pingzhou City on foot, and walked all the way to the outside of Qiujiazhuang. She never once shouted tired or showed any clues.
Even he, the husband, didn't know she had done such a thing. Lu Yan rubbed his forehead and whispered: "Take it off when you go to bed tonight."
Lin Jinrong looked at him disapprovingly: "I take it off and you dress it for me? When is this? Wealth is not revealed, you have to carry it with you, you know?"
Lu Yan had the urge to pinch her pink cheeks and rub them hard, but he barely suppressed it: "There are bandits on this river, what if..." He wanted to get good luck, but he didn't want to say anything wrong.
I understand too well, but I hope Lin Jinrong can understand what he means and take the initiative.
When Lin Jinrong heard what was going on, he said easily: "I know, it's important to save your life. I'll just take it off when the time comes." Don't talk about it, even the cotton-padded clothes and skirts have become very heavy after absorbing water, and they have to be taken off.
Yes, she is not that stupid.
Lu Yan was obviously worried about her and tried to persuade her: "This is no better than on land."
Lin Jinrong refused to give it to him: "I know it myself."
He was just afraid that she didn't count it. Lu Yan said sincerely: "If you are really worried, give it to me, and I will return it to you when you cross the river. If there is even a penny missing, I will try to return it to you in the future."
"Second brother, second sister-in-law." Lu Lun and Lu Gen strolled over from the deck in the moonlight. Seeing that the two of them seemed to be arguing about something, they were worried that they would get upset and come over to interrupt.
Lin Jinrong smiled and said: "You three brothers, tell me slowly, I have to go back." After saying this, he playfully winked at Lu Yan and left quickly.
Lu Yan sighed helplessly, turned around and discussed with Lu Lun and Lu Zhen: "Although I said that I will set off early, I still need to be more alert at night. I will take people to guard the first half of the night, and you will guard the second half of the night.
There must be no mistakes!" Seeing that they both agreed, Fang told Lu Lun again: "You must entertain your friends well. Unfortunately, when you are away from home, you can't even talk about good wine and meat, and even good tea can't be served to them.
One cup."
Lu Lun said nonchalantly: "They are all rough people. They only care about sincerity and not the insincerity." He took out a roll of green cloth from his arms and handed it to Lu Mian. He lowered his voice and said, "Take this."
Give it to the boatman and hang it above the sail when sailing tomorrow. It will probably ensure a safe journey."
Lu Yan turned on the angry lantern and took a look. It was three triangular flags with white cloth sewn on the corners. They were simple and plain, with nothing special about them.
Lu Gen asked curiously: "Fifth brother, what is this? Is it really that effective?"
Lu Lun said calmly: "This is the flag of the Qingbai Gang, one of the river bandits that roams the river. Any boat flying this flag will be on the same level as other river bandits."
Lu Geng's expression changed slightly: "Will someone see through it?"
Lu Yan solemnly put the flag away in his arms and hid it close to his body, and said calmly: "It's best if you don't see through it, but if you see through it, it's the same as not hanging the flag. There is no loss. Go back to sleep and replace it in the middle of the night."
I."
"Yes, second brother." Lu Xi responded obediently, hunched his shoulders and turned around to walk back. Lu Lun slapped him hard on the back: "Tell you to stand up straight!" The slap made Lu Xi stagger.
, Dare to be angry and dare not say anything. Fang looked back at Lu Yan and smiled flatteringly: "Second brother..."
Lu Yan glanced at him: "Tell me, what do you want to say?"
Lu Lun said softly: "Tomorrow, after my friends and I send you across the river, we will no longer go to Jiangnan with you. I will make it clear to you in advance that I will no longer say goodbye to the elders then. Don't hold back.
Crying and crying doesn’t look good.”
Although Lu Yan had already guessed something from his actions and words, she still couldn't help but feel sad when she heard him say it so clearly. However, she knew that he was no longer the Lu Lun of the past, and no one could keep him.
, after a long moment of silence, he whispered: "What are your plans in the future?"
Lu Lun looked up at the hooked moon in the sky, smiled slightly, and said with great pride: "I want to go back and kill the Da Rong barbarian with my friends!"
Everyone has his own ambitions, Lu Yan patted him hard on the shoulder.
Lu Lun suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Second brother, you don't have to feel bad about my face. I feel more comfortable like this. At least now people over there in the Northern Desert don't recognize me."
It would have been better if he had not said this to Lu Yan. Lu Yan was even sadder to hear him say this: "That's originally the case, but your appearance will inevitably attract people's attention. I'm afraid you won't be able to stop annoying them."
Lu Lun smiled miserably: "No, that's the rule there. If I ruin Lu Wulang's face, they will no longer be able to recognize me, Lu Wulang. Otherwise, even if I kill them, they won't be able to find me."
The rules in the world of martial arts are strange and strange. Lu Jin doesn't understand them very well, but he can only choose to believe in Lu Lun. The two brothers gathered around a small stove and drank a pot of strong tea soup. They talked until Lu Jin came to change shifts at midnight.
Dispersed.
In the early morning, the reeds and tidal flats along the river were covered with a layer of white frost, and the sun came out and shone a dazzling white on them. The ship was about to weigh anchor, and everyone, including Lin Jinrong, fell into inexplicable nervousness.
Lu Yan looked at the green and white pennant fluttering in the wind at the highest point of the mast, and gave an order: "Let's go!" The three ships lined up and sailed slowly into the river, facing the rising sun and heading towards the opposite side of the river.
In the afternoon, the boat has sailed smoothly into the river. Except for a few small boats that followed leisurely for a while and then left on their own, there was no abnormal movement. According to the tardigrades, it should be possible if there are no accidents.
We arrived across the river safely before dark, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Jinrong had the leisure to take Yilang out of the cabin for some fresh air: "This is the sail, this is the mast..." Yilang happily held her hand, leaned on her legs, and chattered to himself.
: "There are fish in the river. Catch them and cook them for grandpa to eat! Let grandpa come out and look at the river and the sails!"
Lin Jinrong knelt down and made eye contact with him: "Grandpa is sick and can't come out to see the river or the sails. Can Yilang go in and talk to my grandfather?"
Yilang twisted his body and said, "I won't go. Mom said."
Lu Jianxin has a very bad temper, and he loses his temper almost every time Yi Lang sees him. Although he cannot move and cannot speak clearly, his anger is clearly expressed and cannot be hidden from the eyes of children.
Lin Jinrong did not force Yilang, but said softly: "The reason why my grandfather is always angry is because he is sick and uncomfortable. Yilang needs to be more comforting and considerate to him to be a good boy."
Yilang didn't answer. He looked up at Lu Yanxiao who was standing on the deck in the distance and looking in this direction. He bowed his waist and shouted loudly: "Daddy! Daddy!"
Lin Jinrong looked at Lu Yan and smiled sweetly, and made a gesture to tell him that she was still wearing the jacket. Lu Yan glared at her, and then laughed when Yi Lang shouted.
