pampering wife

Chapter 93

There were crowds of people on both sides of the Jinshui River, but because the boats entering the river tonight were all registered early, and most of them were the big boats of wealthy families, Huafang, there were not many boats on the river, but it was not crowded.Gu Changqing had already made arrangements before, walking along the river bank for a while was the place where the Gu family's big boat was moored, the soldiers checked the sign and bowed to invite them to board the boat.

Needless to say the gorgeous and beautiful lacquer carvings on the outside of the boat, Junli boarded the boat first, Gu Changqing escorted Gu Ronghua and Qingmei up, and then called Danqing, Tanying, and Lvzhu onto the boat, while the others stayed on the shore.

On the two small tables in the cabin, delicious food and wine were prepared, Junli and Gu Changqing sat facing each other, and Qingmei and Gu Ronghua sat at the same table.Because of the previous kiss, Qingmei is still worried at this moment, she doesn't dare to meet Junli's eyes, and she tries to avoid him as much as possible when she sits down.

The tall boat sailed away slowly, and there were occasional boats from other families passing by on both sides. When Gu Changqing saw familiar people, he waved his hands and greeted them.Gu Ronghua was naturally not to be outdone, and when he occasionally saw a wealthy lady whom he knew well, he would stop the boat for a while to chat.She grew up in the capital since she was a child, and likes to participate in various banquets. Naturally, she is at home in this kind of occasion, and she doesn't really go to watch the lanterns when she is busy.

Because of Junli's relationship, Gu Ronghua has a grudge against Qingmei after all, and he no longer takes her with him when he communicates.Qingmei was happy to be quiet, leaning against the barn board, watching the lanterns on both sides quietly - looking at the whole river, there are colorful lanterns on both sides, like the falling of the Milky Way, but more brilliant and colorful than it.

Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw Junli looking at her from time to time, and couldn't help but get angry, staring at her and ignoring him.

Because Gu Ronghua was greeting the sisters of the Shen family on the boat of the Shen family next door, he temporarily stopped the boat to meet the prince.Qing Mei took a sip of tea and carefully looked at the lights, when someone touched the cabin suddenly, she looked over in surprise, and saw a brightly lit large ship beside her, with a strong smell of alcohol wafting over, mixed with vague laughter.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't turn her head, she looked over in a blink of an eye, and met a deep gaze.On the opposite boat, He Jingyuan was so drunk that he was supported by two Li Ji, and shouted from a distance of one foot: "Qu Qingmei, is that Qu Qingmei?" On Qingmei, she was very uncomfortable.

He Jingyuan's yelling naturally alarmed Junli and Gu Changqing who were chatting by themselves.Junli walked over with a frown, and scolded: "What are you shouting about!" As soon as he appeared, Yao Xiuwu immediately withdrew his eyes and bowed to salute, He Jingyuan squinted his eyes for a long time before vaguely saying: "So it's His Highness...why? You're with this girl again... last time she lied to me... lied to me..." But she couldn't bear it and lay on the side of the boat retching.

"Help him in!" Jun Li couldn't help frowning, and waved his hands in disgust.

On the other side, He Jingyuan, who was drunk as mud, was dragged in, and a person walked out of the opposite cabin and bowed to Junli, "I don't know if it was the Third Highness who was here, and the boat was unstable just now, for bothering you, I will apologize here on behalf of Third Brother."

It turned out they were all from the He family!Qingmei was disgusted in her heart and didn't want to look more, she turned her eyes away, and saw Yao Xiuwu staring at her again, her eyes were more sinister than before, more probing.She was moved by such probing eyes, and she also looked straight at him. The opposite Yao Xiuwu opened and closed his lips, but made a clear mouth shape——

"You're not dead?"

Qingmei's heart was shocked, but she still looked away calmly, as if she didn't understand what he meant.However, there were already waves in his heart. Yao Xiuwu knew that she faked her death and went to Beijing, so he should also know the Yao family's suspicion of her. His lip movement tonight was probably a temptation?
Puzzled in her heart, not far away, Gu Ronghua's smiling words faintly rang to her ears: "Sister, stay away... I will definitely go next time..." Qingmei looked over with her teacup in her hand, and saw Gu Ronghua coming from the Shen family's boat.

The place where the two boats meet shook slightly, Gu Ronghua seemed to have lost his footing, swayed his body, and just happened to lean towards Junli.In the eyes of others, her movements were naturally due to the unstable bow of the boat, and she was slightly drunk and fell over, but Qingmei sat low, and could see everything clearly under the light, and Gu Ronghua's feet were very stable. How can I fall?

She naturally understood that this was Gu Ronghua's trick, and she couldn't help looking at Junli.In such a situation, if Jun Li didn't reach out to help, it would be disrespectful to Gu Changqing, and let the woman fall in front of her eyes without doing anything, which would damage her reputation.But if it is helped, Gu Ronghua's behavior is really annoying!
The hull of the boat was shaking slightly, Junli moved sideways imperceptibly, behind him, Danqing rushed up very cleverly, and firmly held Gu Ronghua's arm.After she stood still, Danqing bowed and said: "Miss forgive me for the offense."

Without waiting for Gu Ronghua to open his mouth, Gu Changqing said, "Don't talk about offense, I should thank you." There was a hint of displeasure in his voice, and when he looked at Gu Ronghua, his eyes were a little more wary.

Where did Gu Ronghua expect Danqing to pop up so suddenly and in time?Others might not notice Junli's actions, but she could see them clearly, and now that Gu Changqing said it, she blushed immediately, forced herself to say thank you, and pretended to be drunk and dizzy. He helped him into the cabin and sat down.

The boats of Shen's family and He's family sailed away one after another, Qingmei was smiling to herself, but another boat came into her eyes.
