Chapter 383 Stay
Author: Loeva
Qin Hanzhen returned to her cabin and began to write letters to her father Qin Ping and Grandma Lu. She wrote down her doubts in the letter one by one, and reminded her father to protect Brother Zi and not to let him go easily.
When he comes into contact with unknown people from the outside world, even the servants who come and go in the Qingfeng Pavilion must be careful to prevent anyone from being bribed by the He family. If the He family really comes to visit, don't be soft-hearted, she must not be allowed to enter the house.
If she wants to cause trouble, she can ask the head of the house to come forward and report it to the government.
Anyway, there has been a unified statement about Qin An's divorce, so there is no need to worry about whether it is embarrassing or not. Even if the whole capital knows about it, the Yongjia Marquis Mansion can still withstand it. The He family is helpless in the capital, and it is not
She will be their family's opponent. Even if she has someone to rely on, the backstage will not be as strong as the Qin family. The Qin family can safely bully others.
Qin Hanzhen persuaded his father that there was no need to be lenient to He and Sister Zhang just because he felt they were pitiful, and there was no need to give them money to support them. Firstly, He had money and could make a living; secondly, secondly,
Uncle Qin'an can lend a helping hand to the He family because of their former relationship as husband and wife, but there is no need for the father and daughter because they have a grudge against the He family. If they want to do good deeds, they can put their money and energy into
The poor people who deserve their help are more worthy of their help than this vicious woman who has harmed the lives of others and can still survive with her children, and has not been punished by the law so far!
Qin Hanzhen gave very detailed instructions and wrote eloquently for a long time. After he finished writing, he looked back and found that he had written three large pieces of paper. He didn't know if his father would have a headache because of his daughter's verbosity after receiving the letter.
Qin Hanzhen laughed awkwardly, thought for a while, and decided to write two more pieces of paper. This time he wrote about his experiences when he was passing by Huaiyin, Huai'an and other places by boat, the scenery along the way, special snacks, and interesting things.
Wait, wait, wait, even the trivial details of my grandmother Niu Shi, who had a bad appetite and pestered my grandfather Qin Bai to go ashore to buy some side dishes to go with the meal. She also played chess by herself. Yesterday she won three games against Qin Jian and lost two games against Zhao Mo.
Disk, etc.
After all, although the letter is a bit verbose, it still looks like it has a sense of life. I wonder if my father will like it?
Qin Hanzhen finished writing the letter, dried the ink on it, and carefully sealed it with an envelope. When she was about to seal the envelope with paste, she found that it was too cold today and the paste had freeze-dried, so she hurriedly called Qing Xing
Come and light the lamp.
Qingxing was confused, so she took the fire folding bag and came over to light the lamp, and asked her: "It's not dark yet, girl, you want to light the lamp so early? If the girl feels that the cabin is too dark, why not open the window?"
Qin Hanzhen shook his head and said: "It's so cold outside, why open the window? It's not that the light in the room is too dark, but the paste has dried, and I want to light a lamp to bake it."
Qingxing understood, lit the lamp, took the small bowl of paste, and helped her bake it while saying: "I was talking to Qingdai at Young Master Zhao's place just now, and I heard from her that Young Master Zhao planned to have a meeting with Jane today.
My brother went to the pier for a walk. After dinner, he could also go to the night market for a few walks. Because it was too cold, and after the sun went down, the cold wind blew harder. They gave up the idea and were hiding in the cabin.
We were talking here, saying that we would visit Yangzhou City tomorrow morning. When the sun comes out by then, it will definitely be much warmer than at night."
Qin Han was really surprised: "Let's go shopping tomorrow morning? Did you hear that right? We should leave early tomorrow morning, so how can we go shopping?"
Qing Xing said: "It seems that Brother Jian went to Master Huang's ship to meet him. I heard Master Huang said that our fleet will stay in Yangzhou for one day and wait until the morning of the day after tomorrow before leaving."
Qin Hanzhen was suddenly surprised and happy: "Really? Did you hear that right?!"
This is so surprising! They have been on the road all the way. Except for one day when they were in Tianjin to visit Mr. Niu's grave and wait for Huang Jincheng to come over to meet him, the rest of the time was basically the day before.
We docked at the dock to rest, and left after having breakfast early the next morning. The schedule was so busy that Qin Hanzhen felt that it was a bit too boastful.
Zhang, thinking that it was only the Double Ninth Festival at this time, and they were already almost at the Yangtze River. It was still early before the canal was frozen in winter, so there was no need to rush, right? I really don’t know why my grandfather Qin Bai refused to relax at all.
Grandma Niu had been unwell for several days on the way, and had been a little weak the past two days, but their ship still did not slow down.
When we arrived at Yangzhou City, Huang Jincheng actually planned to stop here for a day?! What a surprise.
Yangzhou is a very prosperous city. Although they were only parked on the pier beside the canal, they could see that this place was more prosperous than all the river ports they had passed before. If they had a free day, they might even be able to go ashore.
Take a walk?
Qin Han was really surprised and said to Qing Xing: "I wonder if my grandparents will give you a holiday? You and your brother lived here for a few years when they were children, right? Do you still know the road? Do you want to go back to your old residence to have a look?"
"
Qingxing's face showed a bit of struggle, some expectation, some joy, but most of it was sadness: "Forget it, I lived here for a few years when I was a child, but I'm afraid the people I knew at that time don't want to do it now.
You saw me. I don’t have any relatives or acquaintances living here. The place I lived in was said to be an old residence, but it was actually an official residence behind the Yangzhou government office. I don’t know how many owners it had been. My brother and I couldn’t see anything when we went back.
On the contrary, it looks sad.”
She quickly put on a smile and said to Qin Hanzhen: "However, if you want to visit the city, my brother and I can be your guides. Although I haven't been back for ten years, the changes in Yangzhou City should not be the same."
It will be very big, and I know all the directions of the roads. I also know which time-honored store has the best food and snacks. There are also all kinds of powder jewelry, fans and satin, calligraphy and painting antiques, no matter what you want, you can find it in Yangzhou City.
Everything you need.”
Qin Hanzhen was so excited when he heard this: "I'll ask my grandparents later. It's rare to pass by here and stay for a day. I can't just wait on the dock for a day and waste time. I want to go shopping anyway, right?"
We can’t have a good time, let’s talk about it on our way back. Now in the autumn and winter, everything is withered, and the scenery is not as beautiful as when the flowers are blooming in the spring.”
Qingxing nodded: "Fireworks fall in Yangzhou in March. The city of Yangzhou was really beautiful at that time. When I was a child, I went to spring every year and visited all the beautiful scenery in and outside the city. If the girl really comes back to play here next spring,
I will take you to the place with the best scenery!"
Just when Qin Hanzhen and his servants were discussing with great interest which place in Yangzhou City has the best scenery and which time-honored store has the most unique goods, Doctor Shen was also muttering to Qin Bai: "I went to talk to Mr. Huang just now, but I didn't find him.
His personal report
He told me that Mr. Huang has disembarked from the ship, and said that our group will stay in Yangzhou for one day tomorrow and set off early the day after tomorrow. Didn’t Mr. Huang make his own decision? He never said hello to Mr. Hou or me!
What is he going to do?!"
Qin Bai was also a little surprised: "Is it possible that there is something urgent in Yangzhou city that he needs to ask about?"
Imperial Physician Shen said: "The affairs of Yangzhou City are left to the officials of Yangzhou City. What does it have to do with Mr. Huang? We still have to rush to Jinling City as soon as possible to meet with the palace... and that man. .Besides, even if there is something really important and we need to stay here for a day, Mr. Huang can discuss it with us instead of making the decision without saying a word and disappearing directly. I asked his soldiers, Huang Where has the Lord gone? His soldiers don’t know anything about it, which is really annoying!”
Doctor Shen was really dissatisfied with Huang Jincheng. He came south on this trip with a heavy responsibility, and he was also under a lot of pressure, okay?
Qin Bai remained silent.
Doctor Shen continued to complain: "It's strange to say that we used to be in a hurry all the time. Sometimes in order not to miss Sutou and for safety reasons, we would occasionally stop at a big port in advance to save half a day's journey. However, it has never happened before that a whole day was directly delayed like this. The weather is good, it’s not raining or snowing. If you don’t cross the river as soon as possible while the weather is good, in case you get to the river If we encounter wind and rain, what should we do?!"
Not far from Yangzhou is the Yangtze River, and Zhenjiang City is across the river. If you want to go to Jinling, you need to take another route from there.
Qin Bai could see that Dr. Shen was really annoyed, so he smiled and reassured him: "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I have seen the sky. It will be sunny in the next few days, and there will be no rain or snow. Mr. Huang has always been He is a prudent person and is not a fool. There must be a reason for him to stay in Yangzhou. He directly received the emperor's secret order to act. We don't know many of the inside stories, so we should stop complaining about him." He mentioned it again. The suggestion sounds very tempting, "Yangzhou is a big city. It's a rare visit. Don't you plan to go into the city and have a look, Mr. Shen?"
Doctor Shen was comforted by him, and his mood calmed down a lot. He realized that Qin Bai had a noble status and was much higher than him. Just because he had always been kind and kind to others without any pretensions, he ignored the two of them. The identity difference between them. His tone just now was a little rude, but Yongjia Hou didn't mean to blame him at all.
Thinking of this, Doctor Shen also felt a little embarrassed, and said hurriedly: "Master Hou is right. Since Mr. Huang has already made up his mind, I don't know what to say. It's a rare visit to Yangzhou City, and it's time to take a stroll. ." Then he resigned.
Qin Bai sent him away with a smile, turned around, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a puzzled expression.
He didn't know what Huang Jincheng wanted to do when he stayed in Yangzhou for a day. However, he remembered that when he was a child, he heard his mother, Mrs. Ye, mention that the ancestral home of the old Marquis's first wife, Mrs. Huang, was in Yangzhou.
This means that Mr. Huang Jincheng's ancestral home is in Yangzhou. Huang Jincheng stayed in Yangzhou for one day and then disappeared without a trace. Could it be that he went back to his hometown? But he does not seem to be a person who forgets his official duties for personal reasons. Could acting like this be related to the previous letter from Jinling? But what is the connection between the prince and the Huang family members?
