Saratov Province, Khvarensk County, Port.

The most Truchen is in the northernmost county of Volga, where a large port has been built.

Li Erwa, who is also the village chief and also serves as the militia company commander, brought his wife Fusuli and stepdaughter Li Helan here.

Unlike Zhang Laoqi's uneasiness, Li Erwa did not waver at all about marrying his daughter to his son.

In this new country, he has already regarded Zhang Laoqi as his closest person. If the two families can become in-laws, they will be more kinship.

Fusuli also has this idea, all of which come from humiliation and hardships. She has always taken good care of the much younger Ah.

The reason why Li Erwa came here so late is because she just finished the autumn harvest.

Twenty years later, he and Fusuli also gave birth to several children. After finishing his work, he put all his children in the city at Chaolu's house, and immediately rushed to the port with his wife and daughter.

From here, you can take a passenger boat to Kiev along the Volga River, Canal, Don River, Dnieper River, and then take a public carriage to Lviv along the Kiev-Betzerkovi-Vinnica-Kamonets-Ternopol-Lviv road, and finally rent a carriage in Lviv City to go to Sergini village.

Originally, Chaolu wanted to ask for leave and follow him, but was rejected by Li Erwa. Chaoluneng went to him in person, which naturally made him look shining on his face and Zhang Laoqi, but he didn't want to do this. He wanted Zhang Laoqi to know that he was also a farmer family!

Truqin, the people with household registration can move freely in the country, but they are very strict in managing outside entrants. Li Erwa bought the boat ticket for this morning early in the morning and was very excited - he also wanted to meet the old guy.

Li Helan was wearing beautiful clothes and snuggled up to her mother Fu Suli. The family brought three big boxes. Except for the journey, most of them were dowry carefully prepared by Li Erwa and his wife for her.

Like Zhang Laoqi, Li Erwa has accumulated a lot of money over the years. He naturally needs to prepare carefully for the first time marrying a daughter. Now Li Helan is wearing an exquisite gem necklace from Elista on her chest, and a gold bracelet purchased from Saratov on her left hand.

On his right hand, he wore a new exquisite female watch from Truqin bought by Zhang Wang for her. The watch was also inlaid with fine gems. Such a watch would cost an ordinary person a year's salary to afford.

The autumn grasslands of southern Ancient have become a little chill. Li Helan is wearing a white shirt, a red wool fleece skirt, and a pair of calfskin shoes with bows on her feet.

There is also a dress for a Mongolian woman to get married by Fusuli, who was sewn for her by herself.

"Woo..."

The passenger captain who had already docked on the dock screamed, and the three of them hurriedly walked towards the dock.

This is a large ship equivalent to the size of the Truechin Navy Batulu, but only two floors, the lower floor is a sleeper, similar to the upper and lower bunks like the green train in later generations. They are all rooms, each with four beds.

Li Erwa bought four tickets in one go, obviously trying to occupy a single cabin.

The upper floor is seating, which is obviously for short-distance passengers.

Such a passenger ship has only one steam engine. Every time you arrive at a major station, you have to stop to replenish coal and fresh water. It will take at least an hour. If the steam engine breaks down, it will take half a day to a day.

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief after entering the room. At the moment, one of the upper bunks was filled with their things. The other three beds were two women living in the lower bunks, and Li Erwa lived in the upper bunks.

The space of the ship is obviously much larger than that of the train. If there is no empty bed, Li Erwa naturally has to stuff things under the bed.

While waiting for the boat to drive, the three of them chatted for a while and then prepared to rest - they haven't been to such a place for a long time, and it's still a big thing like marrying a daughter. They were very excited last night, and they almost didn't sleep all night, so they were already sleepy.

"Woo..."

The ship finally started, and the steam engine was very moving, no less than the slamming trains in later generations, but this was already very good for the Truqins.

Although it is a passenger ship, it also uses the mature Truchen-1770 400 horsepower steam engine, but its power is obviously not as good as a warship, and its speed is only 30 miles per hour.

According to Li Erwa and his friends' understanding, if you set out from here and take a boat, the journey to Kiev Port is nearly 5,000 miles!

The ships are naturally sailing day and night, but if the time for stopping in the middle is added, they can only travel for up to twenty hours a day. Even so, they will arrive at most ten days!

This was unimaginable in the past. Li Erwa recalled that when they arrived in Urumqi from Wuwei, they took half a year to go on the way!

At that time, they could only walk twenty miles a day, which was done under the urging of the army. If they were to drive a big cart according to the general situation, they could walk up to ten miles a day!

"Tu tuk..."

The three of them just lay down when the door suddenly rang.

Li Helan got up and opened the door. She saw that it was the passenger boat attendant and three people. When she saw one of them, she couldn't help but scream: "Yulia, why are you?"

Hearing this name, Li Erwa sat up, and soon Chikov's face appeared in his eyes.

Chikov smiled and said, "What a coincidence. Yulia was admitted to Kiev Higher Normal School. I was about to send her to school. Unexpectedly, the village chief was here too. I didn't buy a sleeper berth, so I had to buy a seat. I didn't care, I was afraid of hardship. I heard that there were still spaces here, so I wanted to..."

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

Li Erwa is lucky. The journey went very smoothly. It took only eight days to arrive in Kiev!

After getting off the boat, Li Erwa, Fusuli, Li Helan and Yulia waited for Chikov on the dock. They waited for a long time before they met. In addition to Chikov, Li Erwa also saw a person he unexpectedly!

Zheng Ashui!

And Zheng Ashui’s wife!

"You..."

Zheng Ashui smiled and said, "Village Chief, you have never come up for eight days, eight days."

Chikov also smiled and said, "Village Chief, Zheng Ashui and I can attend Li Helan's wedding as representatives of the woman's family"

Li Erwa finally understood, "After the last Turgenev incident, the Chikov family was criticized in the village. They resisted the opposition and calmed down the criticism. In addition, Chaolu spoke for him in the county again, which made him raise his head in the village again. He was grateful, so he deliberately said that he was sending Yulia to study in Kiev, because he was afraid that I would refuse."

"And Zheng Ashui, he is an extremely sleek and exquisite figure, and he is well versed in the world. His son is extremely outstanding. He will definitely be admitted to Elista and Kreit's university. He knows that we are the first batch of immigrants, and it is reasonable to send Lan'er together as representatives of the Han people."

"It's just that they've been sitting on it for eight days"

Zheng Ashui said: "The village chief has no relatives, and we all come from Guangzhou, with many relatives, but it is not easy to separate one side. Since we are from the same village and are all Han people, we are relatives, so we must give it to you."

Obviously, only Han people have this kind of human nature. Li Erwa is very grateful. He pulled Zheng Ashui aside, "Did you instigate Chikov?"

"Yes, there are many girls of the right age in the village, and they are all scrambling to come. In the end, Chikov won it for his Yulia"

"You are going to let Yulia be a bridesmaid for Lan'er?"

"That's natural, this is not Truchen's rule. We're afraid that you don't agree, so we keep hiding it. I'm sorry"

Li Erwa's eyes were filled with tears and punched Zheng Ashui in the chest, "I'm sorry for you"

Fu Suli, Li Helan was naturally very happy after knowing it. He pulled Chikov and Zheng Ashui's wife kept saying something.

While chatting, three carriages came, and the three families quickly got on the carriage.

Li Erwa felt something was wrong after getting in the car.

"Who called the carriage? I didn't even walk away just now"

At this moment, the groom in front of him spoke.

"The village chief was arranged by a senior official of Tiechi"

"Techina?"

Li Erwa couldn't help but be stunned.

"When the village chief, when he learned that you were going to marry a daughter from afar, the senior officials of Saratov reported to the Government Council, and the State Council reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty ordered the senior officials of Vinnica and commander of the Legion Thichna to arrange everything himself"

Li Erwa's tears flowed down. He didn't say anything, but was just choking.
