Traveling through the daily life of raising a family in ancient times

Chapter 101

Song Yeqing seized the opportunity to instill in him the idea that they are equal.

But even so, Zhou Jichuan still kept his status and attitude very low.

Up to Yucheng, he looked like a servant running errands.

"How do you say, where do you want to go first?" He Yanxin opened the curtain and asked Song Yeqing in the carriage.

His hand has come down and healed well, as long as he doesn't make a big move it's fine.

It's just that he still couldn't catch the car, so he only let Zhou Jichuan go.

"First find a place to stay, pack the things in the car, then go to the pharmacy to buy medicine and then sell the car." Song Yeqing replied.

Since they arrived in the afternoon and had to deal with carriages by water, they had to stay one more night.

In the dead of night, the two who had made all the arrangements were standing at the door of the main room.

"What do you think of him?"

Song Yeqing looked at the closed door of the west wing, and asked He Yanxin in a low voice.

He knew that she was asking about Zhou Jichuan, and after thinking for a while, he quietly replied:
"According to my observations in the past two days, this kid is quite clever and can be flexible. He's not just being honest. He's quite serious in his work, and he's neither arrogant nor impatient."

Added another sentence: "But there is really no bad intentions."

Song Yeqing was silent for a long time before she spoke: "Some things cannot be seen in a day or two."

He Yanxin nodded in approval, and then asked, "So you've decided?"

It doesn't mean that you can see it in a day or two, just give more time to observe slowly.

"Well, it's decided."

Until today, the two have made up their minds to take each other to Zhaozhou.

In fact, this is also no way.It is very troublesome to bring him, and it is even more troublesome not to bring him.

If you don't bring it, is it possible to really sell people to be servants?
It is also difficult to find a family for the other party to adopt.After all, who would adopt a boy who is about to turn 14?

That's right, in the later exchanges, they realized that Zhou Jichuan was not eleven or twelve as Song Yeqing had guessed, but about fourteen.

He Yanxin couldn't help but circle around him to confirm the authenticity of what the other party said.

It really doesn't look like 14 years old, it's too thin.

How tall was he when he was 14?About 1.6 meters five or so.

And Zhou Jichuan looked only about 1.3 meters.

"Go in and rest early." He Yanxin massaged his sore eyes with his hands, and then asked Song Yeqing to go back to the room.

They all live in the same room today, and the two brothers have long been asleep.

But after entering the room, Song Yeqing went to bed, and He Yanxin slept on the soft couch outside.

"Is it better?" Song Yeqing handed the medicine to Zhou Jichuan who was lying on the table.

The other party was wearing a gray-blue cotton coat and trousers. After cleaning up, he was a handsome boy.

The ones he wore before were really not good, the inner and outer coats were dirty and thin.

The clothes of the two brothers are too small, while those of Song Yeqing and He Yanxin are too big.

So when she was in Yucheng, she bought two sets of clothes for her.

It's just that Zhou Jichuan's expression is pale at this time, and he's been devastated.But he cheered up and looked up with a flattering smile.

"Sister Song, I'll be fine soon, really."

Song Yeqing forbade him to call her Miss, so she called her sister back.

They have been on the boat for two days, and those who have never been on a boat are more or less dizzy.

Of course, He Yanxin has sat in modern times, but he has no experience with this body.

Not to mention Song Yeqing, Mrs. Song grew up in a water town, so she didn't feel the slightest bit.

The father and son were fine after drinking one or two doses of medicine, only Zhou Jichuan was still suffering.

Song Yeqing thought about it.Among the five, his body was indeed the weakest, and his reaction was the largest and normal.

In the end, he still opened his mouth to comfort:

"You don't have to worry about other things. If you really can't hold on, don't hold on. Let's get off the boat at the next pier."

Gently push the medicine over again. "Drink the medicine first, and I will continue to give you injections later."

Zhou Jichuan nodded hastily, lifted the medicine and drank it down.

Fortunately, when he woke up the next day, I don't know if it was because he was used to it or because he didn't want to cause trouble for Song Yeqing, anyway, it didn't seem to have much effect.

"You wait for me to catch a big fish and grill it for dinner at night."

He Yanxin stood on the deck, holding a wooden stick in his injured hand, and threw the fishhook out with the other hand.

Song Yeqing hugged Song Chengsi, glanced at the fishhook made of needlework she contributed, and expressed that she didn't have much expectations.

On the other hand, He Cheng praised his father's position and clapped his hands there.

If it wasn't for Zhou Jichuan pulling him aside, he might have already run to the side of the boat to watch.

It was already the fifth day on board, and as we went south, the snow disappeared.It was cold and wet, but the weather was still sunny.

Always staying in the room is very boring, so the group of them came out on the deck to see the scenery along the way.

The river is rippling, sometimes slow and sometimes rushing, and there are occasional fogs near the water surface, and a few water birds fly out of the reeds from time to time.

The mountains are layered on top of each other, from near to far, from real to virtual, just like an ink painting, which makes people feel calm and far away.

In Song Yeqing's view, it was very artistic.I want to take out a pen and paper and splash ink casually.

However, He Yanxin next to him only seriously sighed a few words, "It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful", and then excitedly said that he wanted to catch a fish to eat.

Song Yeqing didn't think he was a disappointment, so she went back to her room and took out the needles and threads in the space for him to make a simple fishing rod.

It's all for fun, anyway, it's really boring to spend all day on the boat either reading books or spending time with the brothers.

An hour later, Song Yeqing looked at the little fish with long fingers that he caught, and still couldn't help smiling, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Even Zhou Jichuan secretly smiled happily.

Now his relationship with He Yanxin is not considered close, after all, he follows Song Yeqing's lead.

But it is much better than the first day, and I can communicate normally.

He Yanxin stared at the fish, and said awkwardly, "It's not enough to fit between the teeth."

Then put it in the water, "Go back and let your parents come and talk to me."

This made the two of them even happier, and even the stranger beside him couldn't help laughing heartily.

A middle-aged man with a flowing beard walked a few steps closer, folded his folding fan together and said:
"I see that Mr. Xiao Lang is broad-minded and extremely patient in his actions. I don't know if I will be honored to make friends with him."

He Yanxin naturally returned the salute with a smile and chatted with him.

He always has a three-point smile on his face when he sees people. With his good manners in conversation and his appearance, it is hard not to make people feel good about him.

They also came out for a while, seeing their speculative chat, Song Yeqing took the three children to salute and returned to the boathouse.

"Xiaochuan, go buy two fish. I'll wait for you in the small kitchen." Song Yeqing took out dozens of copper coins and handed them to Zhou Jichuan.

There are fishers on the boat who sell them to customers, and they have bought them.

But before, they were boiled and steamed. Today, when He Yanxin talked about grilled fish, it really made her greedy.

"Hey, good." Zhou Jichuan took the money and trotted out.

If we talk about fish, there are still some in the space, and the seafood has not been eaten yet.
