When Gong Ziyi came to his senses and wanted to find Huo Xi, he only received a handwritten note from her, and she actually ran away to Songjiang.
Gong Ziyi was depressed.
After finishing the matter, he turned around and wanted to follow. Unexpectedly, before he started, something happened in another shop. He was very busy.
At this time, Huo Xi and several children were already in the Yangtze River.
Before leaving, Mu Yan brought a lot of food and medicine to prevent Mu Jie from feeling unwell.
But I didn’t expect that Mu Jie didn’t get seasick at all. He and Huo Nian were happy every day, and Youqing was jumping on the deck on the first day of the new year, fishing or playing games on the deck. When he got tired, he would study with Mr. Qin.
Endorse books. When you get tired of memorizing books, practice martial arts like Zhu Feng and Ta Yue.
It's a happy life.
With Vanilla following us, the journey was smooth, and there was no rain or strong wind. I don’t know if it was because of the large amount of supplies being transported north, but the big boats and small boats going back and forth in the river made the journey peaceful.
Huo Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Who doesn't want a safe journey? Even though he had taken various measures, it would still be very annoying if he encountered water thieves.
Qin Changzhi had not traveled by boat for ten or twenty years, and he was very excited. He didn't know that the two students were not seasick. He himself fainted first. Fortunately, he took seasickness medicine and recovered quickly.
He took two students with him and taught them some knowledge that was not in the books on the deck. Even the few auditors listened with interest, and even Bao Kang listened attentively.
"Sister Xi, I'm not afraid of taking a boat anymore."
"Yeah, it's great."
Huo Xi praised him generously and made Mu Jie look so proud. He really liked the Huo family's elder sister, elder brother, younger brother, as well as the Yang family's aunt and uncle. When he returned to Beijing, he would go to his mother's grave to talk about it.
Tell your mother what you have learned.
The last time his mother was ill, she didn't even go to Songjiang. This time he wanted to take a stroll for his mother.
Several children had fun on the boat, and they all enjoyed the simple meals prepared on the boat.
This time Huo Erhuai didn't come with him and only transported a boatload of sugar into the city. Huo Xi left him in the city to arrange his uncle's marriage with Yang. Her mother had someone by her side to give her advice and she was reassured.
Some.
A few days later, the ship arrived at Songjiang.
The group of people landed ashore and first went to find an inn to stay. The wet nurse's small courtyard could not accommodate so many people. Besides, it was not convenient with Mr. Qin here.
Zhufeng led Mr. Qin and others to the inn. Huo Xi did not go and took Xianghua and Xia He to the shop.
Before she reached the shop, she saw a familiar figure next to her shop, and she stopped in her tracks.
Wu Dayou? Why did he come to Songjiang?
He was not with his second wife and young son in Pingjiang, but came to Songjiang? Did the whole family come?
Huo Xi's eyes flashed when she saw him working in the shop next door to Guangfengshui, loading and unloading goods, and delivering goods.
Why didn't the wet nurse tell me about this? Neither did my maternal uncle?
Huo Xi turned around.
"Girl, aren't you going to the shop?"
"I'm not going." He took Vanilla and Xia He to find the nanny.
After Guangfengshui's business expanded, more than fifty female workers were hired in the weaving workshop. They also bought a large yard and converted it into a weaving workshop. Every month, the cotton and silk cloths woven are shipped to the capital. The silk cloths are shipped to the capital.
They were all shipped to the sea, and the cotton cloth was left to be sold in various shops.
The wet nurse was very happy to see Huo Xi. She pulled her and looked her up and down while shouting.
"Nanny, I'm fine. Look, I've grown taller again."
The wet nurse nodded happily and looked behind her, only to see two maids but not Huo Nian.
"Nian'er is here too. I'll take him to see you after he settles down." He patted her hand to comfort her and pointed at Xia He: "This is Xia He."
The nanny immediately took Xia He and looked at her, trying to find some traces of the old person on her face. Xia He had not heard Huo Xi say anything about the nanny, and looked confused. Huo Xi just said: "She knows your mother."
When Xia He heard this, he immediately felt that the nanny was getting closer to her.
Seeing that the nanny couldn't speak, Xia He felt sympathy and took the initiative to talk to the nanny about her family. The nanny pulled her to wipe her tears, and pointed at Huo Xi from time to time.
"If you treat me well, girl, I will always stay by your side and serve you well." The wet nurse kept nodding.
Mother Ma arranged things and came out, taking a look at Ta Yue.
Ta Yue cupped his hands towards her, she just nodded lightly and took Huo Xi and the others back to the small courtyard.
"Nanny, why did Wu Dayou come to Songjiang? His whole family is here? Where is Brother Nanny?"
The wet nurse lowered her head. Huo Xi looked a little anxious. The wet nurse was a kind-hearted and soft-hearted person, and she could not defeat Wu Dayou's step-wife.
While she was anxious, Mother Ma sighed: "The wife he married later is gone. She said she lost money in gambling, so she went to get a drink, and then she fell into the river and drowned."
Ah? Huo Xi was very surprised.
"Wu Dayou didn't want to stay in Pingjiang. Thinking that your nanny was in Songjiang, he sold his house and came to Songjiang with his stepdaughter and young son. He had been a shopkeeper himself, so he had some skills. Seeing that
The shop next to Guangfeng Water was looking for people, so I went over to apply and became a steward there."
Huo Xi was silent, "How long has he been here?"
"Have you received a letter from your nurse a few days ago, or do you still not know about it?"
Huo Xi shook her head: "I didn't receive a letter from the nanny. I just wanted to go to the shop. When I saw Wu Dayou, I didn't go over, so I came to see you first."
The wet nurse held her hand and said a few words, and Ma Ma explained: "As soon as he came, your wet nurse wrote to you, hoping that you would not come to Songjiang, for fear that he would recognize you, but I didn't expect you to come here on your own."
Already."
Huo Xi frowned: "What about Brother Nanny, does he live with his father?"
"That's not true. Wu Dayou rented a small courtyard with his stepdaughter and young son. Your nanny still lives with us. But he often brings some things to see the two children."
Just after Mother Ma finished speaking, the nurse held her hand and wanted to say something, but Huo Xi didn't understand it for a moment.
"Nanny, please slow down your gestures."
Mother Ma then explained for her: "Your nanny said that she told your nanny not to reveal anything about you, and your nanny agreed. He said he would not tell his father about you."
"Have Wu Day ever visited the nanny?"
Mother Ma sighed: "Here I am. Seeing that your wet nurse was speechless, she even wiped her tears. She comes here almost every day to talk to your wet nurse and bring her some food."
Seeing the nanny lowering her head, Huo Xi took her hand and said, "Nanny, do you still miss him? Do you still want to live with him?" Wu Dayou left the nanny and married another wife.
Seeing her crying silently, Grandma Ma felt uncomfortable.
Pulling Huo Xi out of the house: "Actually, your nanny and Na Wu Dayou are still husband and wife. After all, your nanny didn't die back then."
Huo Xi frowned: "But he married someone else."
"When a wife marries another woman, according to the law, the wife she marries later can only be divorced or can only become a concubine. Wu Dayou just married a concubine, and your wet nurse is still his wife."
