On the Ruyi Painting Boat, the episode of falling into the water ended. Yongqing thanked him, Ma Junqian gave in, but Cao Yong was very uncomfortable beside him. Peony was too close to him, so close that there was almost no distance because he was held in his arms by Peony.

Peony looked at Cao Yong carefully up and down, fearing that he would lose half of his hair, but he felt relieved when he saw that he was indeed unscathed.

Ning Chun, who had run to the pleasure boat, walked out, surrounded the veil that was pulled from some window around his waist. While asking the boat woman to dock, he said to Mudan: "Oh, my good sister, Brother Cao can still melt it. Why don't you ask someone to make a pot of fish soup and hot wine, and give me some coldness to get my brother away, and your body is precious!"

"Yes, yes, I listen to Master Ning!" Mudan lowered her head and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. While asking someone to make soup and boil wine, she asked someone to help a few people into the pleasure boat, but she still personally supported Cao Yong.

Cao Yong smelled the fragrance of powder surrounding the peony, and began to feel yelling. This peony could not be a good match for his old man, otherwise why would he look at him differently? If he was worried that some noble men would not be able to bear it, he should be even more nervous. Yongqing's father is a second-rank general, several levels higher than his father, Jiangning Weaving Factory.

The four of them returned to their seats, looked at me, and looked at you, they were all in a mess. Even Ma Jun, who had not been in the water, was busy saving people, and was covered in water stains. Everyone was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. Cao Yong saw the golden silk steamed buns that had just fallen off the table in front of Yongqing, and said to Mudan: "In addition to fish soup, boil another pot of egg flower soup."

After a while, the pleasure boat leaned against the shore, and Peony sent a few women to buy clothes for Cao Yong and others.

The fish soup and egg flower soup were all ready, and they were served with two pots of hot wine. Peony brought two little maids to serve the soup and pour wine for everyone.

Ning Chun's clothes were just scattered at the bow of the boat, not wet, and the little maid picked them up and sent them in and put them in. He saved people in the water, and then blew the wind naked. Just as he felt cold, he saw that the fish soup was delicious and hot, he drank a bowl in two mouthfuls.

Yongqing ordered a bowl of egg flower soup, took a few sips, picked up the wine pot, filled it with Ning Chun, then poured a glass by himself, raised his hands, and said to Ning Chun, "You will be rewarded for your life-saving grace in the future. Here I will pay my respects to Brother Ning first, I will do it first!" After saying that, he finished the wine in his hand, and the glass was down, and there was no drop of wine.

Seeing Yongqing being solemn, Ning Chun hurriedly got up and picked up the wine glass in front of him: "Brother Yongqing is so polite, it's just a simple task!" As he spoke, he drank his own wine.

Yongqing picked up the wine pot again and gave it to Ma Jun, thanking him for his kindness, and then toasted him. Ma Jun blushed and raised his glass to drink.

After paying respect to Ning Chun and Ma Jun and Yongqing poured a glass of wine for Cao Yong and said with a stern face: "I accidentally pushed you into the water. If you have any good things, I will accompany you with this life. After drinking this glass of wine, I will no longer owe you!"

Although Yongqing was the one who caused him to fall into the water, Cao Yong's anger had already dissipated when he saw that Yongqing did not know the nature of the water and went to the water to save people. During the past half day of contact, Yongqing was arrogant, but his face was soft and his heart was not bad. Cao Yong's impression of him also improved. He was a responsible man. Although the apology was a bit stiff, we didn't care about him.

Cao Yong drank Yongqing's wine and went to see Ning Chun, thinking about whether to respect Ning Chun. Thinking about the situation where he fell into the water just now, it was really thrilling. There were no other cruise ships around. When Ning Chun grabbed Cao Yong's braid, he was already choking and confused. If Ning Chun had not entered the water, or Ning Chun had been in the water for a while, it was really different whether his and Yongqing's life could be preserved.

Before Cao Yong decided whether to toast, Yongqing said again: "After drinking, you have to agree to compete with me with arrows. I don't believe that I can't compare to you!"

After listening to Yongqing's old words and re-mentioned, not only Cao Yong found it strange, but even Ning Chun and Ma Jun were surprised.

"Why do you have to compete with me?" Cao Yong asked with a calm expression.

A trace of pain appeared in Yongqing's eyes. He held the wine glass tightly with his right hand, and the wine glass shattered with a "click" sound, and blood flowed down his palms to the table.

Cao Yong and others stood up. Ma Jun frowned and pulled Yongqing's hand. Seeing that it was covered with blood and fragments of wine glass were deeply trapped in the flesh, he couldn't help but be angry: "The body, hair, skin, and parents, how could you do so recklessly?"

Mudan asked the maid to find a clean white cloth. Ma Jun picked out the fragments from Yongqing's wounds and bandaged him with white cloth.

Ning Chun sat beside Yongqing, thinking that he was angry with Cao Yong, and was afraid that he would attack Cao Yong, so he advised: "Brother Yongqing, why bother to compete? What if he loses, what if he wins? Brother Cao Shi is only eleven, he is not strong enough and has little strength. Even if he wins, what's the glory, it's a joke!"

Yongqing's face turned gray and his eyes were red, and he murmured: "Yes, he is just a child. I'm really confused about why I compete with him!"

Seeing that Yongqing looked wrong and seemed to have a hidden feeling, Cao Yong ordered Mudan to take the maids of Ruyi Painting Boat to avoid it. The few who were originally playing the piano behind the curtain also retreated.

"Could it be that the competition with me is for the favor of long live?" Cao Yong asked out his guess.

Yongqing nodded: "If I could be appointed as a guard by the Emperor Longsheng, I could go back to the capital and go back to the Earl's Mansion. Otherwise, I would have to wait for Ama to complete his tenure for three years. I still don't know if he is qualified to go back!" Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he said: "The Earl's Mansion is an old house in the capital, and my grandfather is the brave Bo Mutai."

"Brother Yongqing's parents and family are all in Jiangning, why do you still miss you back to Beijing?" Ma Jun asked seriously.

I don’t know if it was because I was suppressed for too long or if I had a few glasses of wine, Yongqing was a little drunk, and said angrily: “My parents are parents, but I don’t know if they are relatives or enemies? My mother gave birth to me with difficulty. I was raised by my grandmother since I was a child and returned to my parents at the age of ten. Fortunately, my mother Ama loved her younger brothers and sisters, but she could tolerate me. Now she is old, but she can no longer tolerate me. With grandparents in the capital, they dare not act rashly. After coming to Jiangning, they began to find Yuzi to convict me of disobedience!" At this point, tears fell in her eyes.

Ma Jun was the softest and hurriedly comforted him: "Brother Yongqing might have misunderstood his relatives. How can there be parents in the world who plot against their children?"

"Misunderstanding!" Yongqing sneered: "What I heard with my own ears is still a misunderstanding? I drove away the annoying eldest son so that the baby and the second child are qualified to inherit the title and family business. How clear is the plan!"

Everyone was speechless, Yongqing poured himself a glass of wine and drank it himself. Ning Chun picked up another wine pot, poured himself a glass of wine, and smiled bitterly: "Brother Yongqing, you are not the only child who is disliked by his parents in the world. I will be your company with your brother! If you have a stepmother, you will be your stepmother. This is true. My mother died early, and my father married a lady from a wealthy family, so it was naturally annoying to me. He didn't think about it. Of course, if it weren't for my mother's dowry, how could he buy a prison student and run away? The two sons born by the stepmother have grown up. Yes, my legitimate son is just not worthy of his reputation. If I hadn't seen me, I would have been unable to tolerate me for a long time. Fortunately, I have grandparents and have a place to join me. My grandparents have already been with my mother. The world is so big, I am the only one left!" He said while drinking. He had drunk several cups, all of whom was sad. He held the cup to the sky and looked up and said, "My mother, your trendsetter miss you! This nickname is still the one who has given me. My mother has gone west for thirteen years and no one has ever called her nickname again!" He said this, and he was already choking with words.

Cao Yong's eyes were sore when he heard this, but he didn't expect that there were so many little-known things behind the glamorous families.

Seeing that Yongqing and Ning Chun were exposed, Ma Jun poured himself a glass of wine: "Parents, parents, the hardest person in the world is their parents! Whenever my father saw me, he could only scold me, scold me for being a clumsy, and scold me for being a beggar and couldn't ask for food! My mother only knew how to cry and had no idea. She served her father tremblingly all day, fearing that he would be dissatisfied at all. When I was a child, I decided to "not be a good minister, but be a good doctor." However, when I read medical books, I was scolded by my father for not doing my job properly; when I read historical books, I was scolded by my father as a side-minded person, and I just asked me to review the eight-legged essays."

When Cao Yong saw the appearance of the boys in front of him, he also had the urge to nag.

After almost four years in this world, although he was extremely dependent on the old lady and was able to deal with the whole house, he was confused. He didn't know how much he learned from Xiao Cao Yong in his memory and how much he was his true nature. His mature soul was confined to the body of a young man, and he was exposed to children of a young age. He was introverted and did not like to be arrogant. Although he accepted the reality of returning to the Qing Dynasty, there was always the confusion of Zhuangzi dreaming of butterflies.

"Father and mother should love me!" Cao Yong drank a glass of wine and spoke with all his thoughts.

Ning Chun glared at Cao Yong with dissatisfaction: "You are the only son of the Weaver Mansion and the legitimate family. Who do they love you if they don't?"

Cao Yong smiled bitterly: "Like Yongqing, I was raised by my grandmother. There are not many scenes in my memory of getting along with my parents. From their expressions, I can see that they love me, but I don't know how to get along with me. It's not too far, and I'm not used to being too close. Only when it's not far or close, can we be more comfortable with each other."

"That's your fault, you're polite, but it's hard to hide the distantness in your eyes. Who would like to get close to you?" Yongqing accused without hesitation.

Cao Yong nodded and did not refute Yongqing's words: "Yes, maybe it's all my fault! I'm confused. I don't know whether to be an ignorant child or a responsible man!"

This time, even Ma Jun shook his head: "How old are you and you have too much thoughts. You should be at the age of innocence!"

Cao Yong just took the opportunity to say what he was thinking, and did not expect everyone to understand. After saying a few words, he started to drink a lot of wine.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Ning Chun clapped and laughed: "It's really fate. I didn't expect that today we were a party of a few of our brothers and a few hard-earned children! Come on, pick it up, pick it up, and have fun together. If you have wine today, you'll get drunk tomorrow, don't he loses bird feathers tomorrow! Fuck!"

Cao Yong and the others were all drunk. When Ning Chun said happily, they were all full of wine. They raised their glasses: "Damn!"

Ning Chun stood up, put down the wine glass, looked at the three of them, with a little more serious expression on his face: "Brothers are originally treating the guests with the purpose of currying favors to the powerful young men today, and they are all in Jiangning City. There is inevitably a bump and bump. They have a friendship at the table in advance, and they can give each other face at that time. Unexpectedly, the two of them are all true. Ning Chun, I, don't want to be villains anymore, and I, can't be a fool with everyone. If my brothers and others don't dislike each other, we will be friends in the future."

Yongqing also stood up, but smiled sincerely on his face: "Okay, okay, okay, I didn't expect to make a few friends in Jiangning. It seems that even if I can't go back to Beijing, I have nothing to bother with."

"Brother Ning, Brother Yongqing, and Brother Cao are all straightforward people. It is so lucky that Ma Jun can meet you!" Ma Jun stood up.

Cao Yong finally stood up and his eyes turned from the three of them. He felt good if he had such a few friends.
