Uneasy and uneasy in his heart, and somewhat curious on his face, with a faint expectation, he followed Huo Erhuai closely. His face was timid as he asked and answered questions.
Huo Nian jumped up and down, asking her a question or two from time to time, and chattering to get her to talk, which relieved her a little uneasiness.
When they arrived at the ferry, Yang and Yang Fu had already been waiting on the boat, tiptoeing to look at the road.
Seeing a group of them appear, he raised his voice and said, "Why is it so late?"
When Wei He heard this, his heart clenched again. His second uncle liked her, but what about his second aunt? Will he dislike her?
Seeing that she was motionless, Huo Xi winked at Huo Nian, and Huo Nian stepped forward and pulled her: "Cousin, let's go, I'll show you my boat."
When everyone got on the boat, Ms. Yang saw Wei He following behind. She had no impression of Wei He and had not seen him for a year.
"Mom, this is my fifth aunt's cousin." Huo Nianhou introduced Yang to his mother.
Fifth Aunt? Yang and Yang Fu didn't react at once, looking at Wei He who had his head lowered.
Huo Erhuai told the story again. Yang and Yang Fu were stunned after hearing this.
Although Yang didn't want to be entangled with people from Huojiaba, she was also a soft-hearted person, and it was inevitable to feel sympathy for Wei He when she saw him like this.
Yang Fu, on the other hand, had no sympathy for his brother-in-law's family and had no good impression of the Huo family, but he was not stingy enough to show some kindness to a child.
Seeing Wei He's timid look, Yang comforted her with a few soft words and asked Huo Nian to take her to the ship for a visit. Huo Nian took her hand and happily got into the cabin.
Huo Erhuai raised the oar board and the boat left the outer city ferry. Yang ran over to him and muttered about Huo Wuniang. Yang Fu and Huo Xi sat on the deck and muttered.
"Why did we meet that family?"
"What a coincidence."
Huo Xi didn't care. Since she and Huo Nian were adopted by Huo Erhuai and Yang, their family was also her family, and it was impossible to deny them.
Fortunately, Huo Erhuai and Yang were both sensible people and able to guard their families. The Huo family had been entangled many times in the past few years without causing any trouble.
Her mother Yang Chunxin's fighting ability is not weak.
"You're still smiling. You don't know how difficult that family is, and they are not unreasonable people." Seeing the smile on Huo Xi's lips, Yang Fu glared at her.
"What are you afraid of? My father and mother are not weak and can be bullied. Things that can be solved with a few taels of silver are nothing."
Here in Huo Xi, press if you can, and hide if you can't. There are so many water systems in the capital, and they make boats their home, so it's not that easy to find them.
If she dared to go to the shop and harass her, she would be tied up and thrown into the water. She was not used to the best.
Yang Fu fell on the deck: "You don't know, when I was a child, I went to their house with my brother-in-law, and we couldn't even get a hot meal. It was snowing in the sky in the winter, and they made us huddle in the woodshed and stove, and they refused to add more quilts.
. Even though she brought many things back, she didn’t give us a good look, and she even thought I was a drag. My sister felt very angry every time she went back.”
"Ignore him, let's just live our lives. My father and mother are determined. Don't worry."
"Yes, fortunately my brother-in-law listened to my sister, otherwise we would have moved a lot to that house over the years."
Wei He followed Huo Nian around the boat, touching here and looking there, with curiosity on his face.
Unexpectedly, my second uncle's family all lived on the boat. The boat was big, and it was very spacious for sleeping sideways. The bed could also be used for cooking, laundry, fishing and selling money. It was like a home and could travel around like an oxcart.
That's great. She really wants such a boat. It would be great if her family also had a boat. Then she, her brother and her parents could be like her second uncle, and she wouldn't have to worry about grandma selling her.
"Let's go, I'll take you fishing."
Huo Nian took Wei He and was about to go fishing. Huo Erhuai made a fishing rod to match his stature. Whenever there was nothing wrong, he would throw the rod into the river.
When I see someone, I want to show off his home and equipment.
Huo Xi and Yang Fu only glanced at them and ignored them. They continued talking about the shop.
Shen Qianzhong seemed to have been there for a long time this time, and he didn't know what happened or whether it was not going well.
Huo Xi was worried and wanted to look north, but was afraid of missing him. So she had to wait patiently.
Fortunately, during this period, Huo Erhuai contacted some boatmen to help collect and sell goods. The business of the two shops in the capital was better than before. Songjiang's goods also began to be transported to the capital, and the warehouse was not enough.
"We only have two warehouses and one cellar, which is quite lacking. Now we can't make room for more goods even if we want to stock up on them."
Huo Xi also noticed this problem.
Knowing that building materials were rising slightly every day, she wanted to stock up on some goods, but new goods kept coming by ship. It would be great if there was a Zhuangzi near the capital, where she could stock up on goods.
It's just that the capital is sparsely populated, and Zhuangzi has not bought them for a long time.
The two were talking about something, but before they could come up with a solution, Huo Nian would scream from time to time. Occasionally, he would hear Wei He's scream of surprise. Huo Erhuai looked over there and smiled.
"That brother-in-law of yours, if you meet him again, you have to have a good talk with him. A grown man, after getting married, can't even protect his wife and children. He is manipulated by Mrs. Zhang everywhere, and Wu Niang and the two children suffer accordingly. .”
Yang sneered, quite disdainful.
Huo Erhuai nodded: "Okay, if I see him again, I will give him a good talk. I will talk to Wu Niang tomorrow when I see her. If a man can't support him, she has to support herself. As long as Wu Niang is like you One or two, how can two children suffer such a crime?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Yang had a smile on her face: "No, if I were like Wu Niang, wouldn't our family be completely wiped out by yours?"
"Don't worry. I know it well. I give them pension money every year, which is more than several brothers. If they ask me for it, I don't have it. I still have to support my wife and children."
Yang had a smile on her face: "As long as you understand."
Wei He followed Huo Nian and caught several fish, which made her extremely happy.
Mrs. Yang also said that the fish she caught would be cooked into fish soup tomorrow morning and asked to be taken to the hospital for her mother and brother to eat. She was even more happy and refused to put down the fishing rod.
Now I have become acquainted with Mrs. Yang. I said "Second Auntie" on the left and "Second Auntie on the right" happily.
She didn't get seasick and had a sweet sleep on the Huo family's boat.
The next morning, when I was full, I took Huo Erhuai's hand and carried food for his mother to the hospital.
Huo Wuniang spent the whole night in the hospital on the floor, sleeping poorly. She got up several times during the night. Each time, she held a light and poked under her son's nose. She felt that his son was breathing, and then she lay down and squinted for a while.
When Huo Erhuai brought Wei He over, she was still in a daze with dark circles under her eyes.
Huo Erhuai sent Wei He to the hospital, explained a few words and then went off.
Wei He excitedly described his second uncle's boat to Huo Wuniang: "Mom, I really like my second uncle's boat. My second uncle is a nice lady, and she even gave me my cousin's old clothes. Look, these old clothes It’s not old at all and looks good.”
"Mom, can we have a boat like my second uncle's? We lived on the boat at that time and made money by fishing and selling it?"
The mother and daughter were talking in the hospital. On the other side, Huo Xi and Yang Fu returned to the shop and unexpectedly found that Shen Qianzhong was back.
