Chapter 103 The Feng Family
The same people who grew up in the north had never seen a boat, Magpie and Qing Xing narrowly escaped death due to seasickness, but Pearl was unscathed.What's even more strange is that He Huan suffered from seasickness a few days ago, but the few steps he took in the cabin just now were like walking on flat ground.Is this pair of masters and servants super adaptable or is there something else hidden?

She pretended to be dizzy all those days, what was she trying to cover up?
When having dinner in the evening, Jin Xi couldn't help telling Mr. Yun Zong the doubts in his heart.Mr. Yun Zong was noncommittal, but put down the jug on a rare occasion, stretched out his hand to touch the top of her head and said with a smile: "Finally grown up!"

Jin Xi turned her head away to prevent Mr. Yun Zong from touching her head.It's not about avoidance, but because she is afraid that Mr. Yun Zong will mess up her hair. Ai's mother and Qing Xing have both fallen ill these days, so she can only comb her hair by herself. If it gets messed up, she has to do it all over again. At this time, she misses it very much. Short hair in previous life.

The life on the boat was extremely boring, half a month passed in a flash, and when Qing Xing and Magpie recovered from their illnesses and could go out of the cabin to breathe, Jin Xi was already tired of looking at the water scenery.I pinch my fingers every day and calculate how many days it will take to reach Anyang.

"Girl, it's time to eat! The boss of the boat just caught the fish today, and it's extremely fresh." Qing Xing came in with a food box, and Jin Xi lay lazily on the table without even moving.Zhou Bohai didn't know why he was insane, so he added 200 taels of silver to let the boat boss sail day and night without docking at all.In this way, three meals a day, except for fish and shrimp, save trouble by using local materials.Fresh food once, curiosity twice, the same dish was eaten for three days in a row, and Jin Xi felt like throwing up whenever he mentioned eating.

Qing Xing put the food on the table and said with a smile: "Miss, let's take a look, today's food is different, and there is fresh beef."

"Where did you get the beef?" Jin Xi sat up straight, staring at the plate of beef tenderloin with green peppers on the table.There are not only beef but also green peppers. Which god has appeared?

"Mr. Yun Zong asked someone to drive a boat to the nearby pier to buy it." Qing Xing also drooled as she stared at the plate of beef, "I bought it specially for the girl, girl, move your chopsticks!"

"He bought it for me on purpose, I think he's out of wine!" Jin Xi's eyes turned sour, but his mouth refused to appreciate it.Instruct Qing Xing to bring an empty plate, and set aside half of the green pepper beef to add vegetables to Ai Mama.

After finally eating a full meal, Jin Xi burped while stroking her chubby belly, Qing Xing wiped the bottom of the dish with steamed buns, and then licked her tongue with unsatisfied desire.The two of them were exhausted, and they didn't dare to rest for a while. Jin Xi wanted to read a book, but Qing Xing insisted on persuading her to go to the boat strings to get some air.

Knowing that Qing Xing is playful and afraid of being scolded, after calculating that she will arrive in Anyang in two days, Jin Xi doesn't hold her back.At this time, it was not far from Anlu Wharf. There were sails on the river, and the river was full of cargo ships.The yelling and cursing of the sailors fighting for the waterway in various accents, and the chant of the trackers by the river when pulling the tow, mixed together it was a spectacular sight.

Qing Xing was dumbfounded, but Xiu Gu who climbed up to bask in the sun didn't take it seriously, "What is this? You have never seen the grandeur of Feng's family when you were young. I won't talk about the large ships of Feng's family. The big ones are scary. Just say There are at least [-] or [-] boats in their family's fleet to transport goods to the north. The slightly larger docks have their own docks for repairing ships. When encountering the Feng family's fleet, the fiber trackers rush to get on it. Why is there an extra three kuai for any other trip? That’s tens of pennies! If you know a third-class steward in their family, follow the Feng family’s fleet for a trip, and you can earn money no matter what you sell The bowl is full. I heard that there are no stones in Fengjiayuan's house, but gold bumps."

"Don't be fooling around there, come down to work quickly!" Xiugu usually had a loud voice, but now she spoke excitedly, looking up at the boat boss who was meeting with others in the bottom deck and cursed.But Xiu Gu didn't pay much attention to this rough man in her family, she put her hands on her hips and scolded at her: "I'm so stupid, if it wasn't for the help of the young master of the Feng family, would you have this boat? Don't forget to be gracious, even if the Feng family suffers, I will only think of the Feng family in this life. Hurry up and go to work, or the old lady will not serve you at night."

This sentence has more meanings. The sailors who were working laughed loudly, and two of them were naughty and whistling. He laughed with everyone.

Such fierce scolding almost scares Qing Xing to death, and she drags Jin Xi into the cabin.But Jin Xi remembered the word 'phoenix' that Zhang Chun exclaimed when he saw Niu Shuanzhu the day he saw her.Immediately interested in the Feng family that Xiugu was talking about, Xiugu asked, "Why can't I see the boats of the Feng family now? Could it be that the Feng family doesn't do business on the canal anymore?"

Mentioning this, Xiugu's aggressive energy was swept away, and her face was full of sighs. "God has no eyes. The old master of the Feng family, the young master, and the aunts are all good people. Don't talk about giving porridge and rice during the famine. As long as someone encounters difficulties and asks for help from the Feng family, no matter whether he knows him or not, no one will let him know." When you go back empty-handed. When you are looking for life on the water, there is no smooth sailing. If you are unlucky and encounter strong waves and capsize the boat. As long as the Feng family fleet meets them, you will be saved. Not only help save people, but also repair the ship with capital , we people in the water all call Feng’s family Feng Bodhisattva. It’s a pity that good people don’t get rewarded!”

Jin Xi was even more curious. It stands to reason that such a big business with deep roots and good manners would not be easily uprooted.If it's not a natural disaster, it must be a man-made disaster. Could it be that the prince was on the wrong team when he was fighting for the throne?
Xiugu sighed and continued: "One year, for some reason, the aunt of Feng's family who was preparing to marry first got a strange disease, and she was cured by famous doctors all over the world. She died a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival. The old Patriarch Feng endured the distress. According to the old rules, a banquet was held in the mansion, and the big and small stewards of the Feng family were invited, as well as the boss of the boat and the respectable fellows and clan members. Everyone tried their best to make the old master happy, and the banquet lasted until midnight. Unexpectedly, misfortunes never come singly, and the kitchen suddenly left Water. The fire burned for three days and three nights, and burned the entire Fengjiazhuang into ruins, and none of the hundreds of people escaped."

"Impossible!" Jin Xi blurted out, most of the houses in Dali are made of wood, but with the financial power of the Feng family, it is impossible not to think about fire prevention when building a house.Even if there is a big banquet, it is impossible for the kitchen to burn hundreds of living people to death, unless these people were not burned to death.

"No wonder it's from Beijing, the girl is smart." Xiugu slapped her thigh, as if she had met a bosom friend, "At that time, people in Anyang City said that this matter was strange, and later the imperial envoys were sent to investigate the case in Beijing. They knew it was the murder of Japanese pirates. They failed to snatch Feng’s boats at sea, but were beaten to death by Feng’s family. Holding a grudge, they sneaked into Feng’s village and killed them. Some people said that Aunt Feng was sick or not. Yes, he was poisoned to death by these Japanese pirates. I heard that the emperor was angry and ordered General Fuyuan to take the navy out to sea to suppress the Japanese pirates."

"What happened later?" Qing Xing's face paled when she heard this, "Afterwards? If they are all dead, what is the future? The old head of the Feng family, the young head, the old lady, the grand lady, the young master, all the family members did not escape that time. The Feng family is dead, what a pity!" Xiu Gu sighed, "It's a pity that the millions of taels of real gold and silver hidden by the Feng family were taken away by those Japanese pirates. I heard that there are still many left, I don’t know where to hide it. It doesn’t need much, just give my mother 100 taels of gold, and my mother will be content in this life.”

Xiu Gu daydreamed, but Jin Xi couldn't recover from the tragedy of Feng's family destruction. Japanese pirates murdered and set fire to rob money.But with their strength, it is still possible to rob a small fishing village, sneak hundreds of miles from the sea into Anyang, and wipe out the wealthy Feng family in one fell swoop, no matter how they sound like legends rather than facts.

"There is no one left in the Feng family?"

Xiu Ma shook her head, "Even if there are, they are from the distant branch. These people have almost died over the years because of the legendary Feng family's remaining wealth. The Feng family is completely extinct." Xiu Gu sighed, " The Feng family is dead, and some prodigal sons have the idea of ​​Feng Qingtong, the aunt of the Feng family, saying that when Aunt Feng died, the old patriarch buried all her dowry with her. These people are digging everywhere, and these people have been looking for Aunt Feng Grave. If you kill people these days, don’t think about the good deeds that Aunt Feng did back then!”

"Was the Feng family's aunt engaged when she died? Her husband's family didn't care?" Jin Xi really couldn't understand, the Feng family was as rich as a country, and the family Feng Qingtong was going to marry must be either rich or expensive, even if he didn't get married, You won't let scoundrels dig Feng Qingtong's grave!

"Speaking of which, that family is even more inhuman..." Xiu Gu just started, when the big boat stopped suddenly, she was caught off guard and almost fell.Holding on to the railing, she leaned down half of her body and cursed at the boat owner who was steering the boat in the bilge: "Stop the boat without saying hello, you want to throw me to death?"

The boss of the boat did not explain and pointed to the river ahead, only then did Jinxi realize that the two opposite cargo ships on the waterway in front refused to give way to each other, blocking the waterway.Xiugu spat at the two boats and cursed: "It's our boatman's rule to let the upper winds into the water. These bastards have forgotten the rules of our ancestors. If Feng's family is here, who would dare to snatch it?" Whoever dares to get in the way is going to follow the rules honestly!"

There were more and more boats from the two directions, and Zhou's big boat was caught in the middle, neither advancing nor retreating.Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhou Bohai revealed his name as the magistrate, and then let the boat in front slowly back to the pier.

"It's better to stop at the pier to rest overnight!" The boat sailed in the middle of the night, and there was a sudden storm outside.Jin Xi was so shaken by the wind and waves that he couldn't fall asleep, he simply sat on the bed in a daze around him, secretly scolding Zhou Bohai for going crazy, and in such a hurry, he didn't know what good things were waiting for him in Anyang!
Qing Xing couldn't sleep either, so she lay on the pillow and asked, "Girl, who do you think Aunt Feng's husband's family is? Why don't you just let those people dig Aunt Feng's grave?"

"It's easy to get priceless treasures, but it's rare to have a lover. It's probably a marriage of benefits. The Feng family is gone. They don't want to get into trouble!" Jin Xi sighed.Xiugu didn't say who Feng Qingtong was going to marry later on, thinking with her toes, it wasn't a loving and righteous family.It is estimated that it is too late to hide, so how can I go up.

"Suppose the girl finds the money of Aunt Feng's family, what does the girl want to do?"

"What are you doing? Buy steamed buns to gag your mouth and go to bed!" Jin Xi couldn't laugh or cry, it turned out that the topic of if I won 500 million was also popular in ancient times. "I just want to think about it!" Qing Xing grumbled, stretching out the quilt to get ready to sleep.

"Don't dream before it's too late, too much money will crush you to death. Feng's family has been wiped out, how dare you have such a dream..." Before Jinxi finished speaking, she heard a loud noise from 'Peng', and the ship shook violently stand up.
