In the afternoon, Yeman Ancestor finally arrived in Henan Township.
The sky was overcast, the wind was blowing, and it looked ominous.
Although they were just crossing the river, the Meng family's boat capsized.
It hasn't rained yet, so it's best to cross the river quickly.
Henan Township is very prosperous, all related to the Xuhe River. There are food and accommodation, carriage and horse shops, pawn shops, and medicine shops.
I guess someone got sick from the cold, pawned it here, took medicine, and died of illness, there was a coffin shop there.
Ancestor Yeman held an umbrella under his arm, looking at so many people at a loss.
Fortunately, she just wanted to cross the river and find a place to cross.
After finding a big boat, the steward looked like a good man. Ancestor Yeman asked cautiously: "Can this boat cross the river?"
The steward is in his thirties. He is thin and has shrewd eyes. He treats the young lady differently from others. His voice is as cold as the autumn wind: "Yes. One tael of silver per person."
The ancestor was frightened. It cost only one tael of silver to travel across a state with a carriage. How far was it across the river? It was not like taking charge of Jundu and being generous to the door.
A smart boy next to him sneered: "Are you begging for food? You need to go somewhere else. How can you afford to sit on this boat without looking at it?"
The ancestor opened his eyes wide and looked at the boat. The big boat was reliable and said: "I, I, I, will cross the river. I, I, I, just need to stay for a corner."
The steward was very straightforward: "One tael of silver."
Ancestor Yeman's eyes are not too big, but they are very innocent: "I, I, I, I am the granddaughter of Rongjie, can I owe you any money?"
There were people on the pier. A large group came around with hula.
The phlegm spirit chased after him and said, "You still dare to pretend?"
The ancestor stood up: "I'm not, I didn't! I am Rong Qingfu's biological daughter. My biological mother's surname is Zhu."
Tan Jing continued to ask: "What evidence do you have?"
The ancestor wiped away tears and said stubbornly: "I heard that my grandmother didn't like my father, so she took me away when I was born and replaced him with a granddaughter. I have always been in the village. If I didn't know, how could I come so far to find my biological mother?
"
The steward was confused: "You said you are the biological daughter of the third master of the Rong family?"
Someone on the side laughed wildly: "Don't you see you like this?"
Someone responded: "If we throw you away after you are born, you may not be much better."
Another person said: "These eyes look very much like Mr. Rong."
"That's right, Mr. San has bright eyes and is very innocent."
"Some people think Mr. Rong is an idiot, but this little lady really looks alike."
Some people objected: "There are so many people who look alike in this world."
Those who objected: "Is this just a resemblance? This is well-founded. Isn't this Ningzhou accent clear after a quick check?"
"Shilang Rong has stayed in Ningzhou for so many years. It's really hard to talk about this matter."
"Ni Shi died after following Wai Ren back then."
"Mrs. Luo specially found a concubine for Mr. Rong who looked like Mr. Ni. It was just a resemblance, but Mr. Rong still couldn't forget her."
The fire of gossip is lit!
Someone directly clicked on the eyes: "So, do these eyes look like Ni's?"
Some people shook their heads: "What a pity for this face."
A young woman directly scolded: "Ugly!"
The maid and daughter-in-law agreed: "You are so ugly, but you still have the nerve to say that you are from the Rong family!"
"The third young lady of the Rong family is the most beautiful woman in the world."
"The third lady is dignified and elegant, and is destined to be rich and noble."
No matter what they said, Yeman Ancestor only said to the steward: "I just want to see my parents."
A group of people fought back: "Rong Cuiyun was raised by Mrs. Luo, and she is not good to the third wife at all. Therefore, the daughter should be kissed well."
"Whether Rong Cuiyun is rich or not, what does it have to do with the third lady?"
Everyone started to quarrel.
"That's because the third lady is not in good health."
"Having been trained by your mother-in-law for two years, will your health improve?"
"Then Mrs. Zhu can't be on the stage, she is just a village girl."
"Isn't Rong Cuiyun a village girl? If someone praises her, she will be on the stage."
"These people are so shameless! Rong Cuiyun is rich and noble, but he looks down on the Zhu family!"
"It is already the greatest blessing for Mrs. Zhu to marry into the Rong family!"
"The greatest blessing is that I am sick every day, and my own daughter has been tortured to this point. It is really cruel!"
Looking at it this way, Mrs. Zhu and her biological daughter really look alike. Their fate is so miserable.
A wise man said: "The third lady is the most filial to the third lady."
Someone sneered: "It's not respectable for the third lady to be so filial, so what will happen if she is not filial?"
There was a strong wind blowing on the river and the waves were roaring.
Someone beat a gong and shouted: "No boats can cross the river!"
Those who were quarreling stopped arguing and started arguing with each other: "Why can't we cross the river?"
"My family is waiting over there to pick me up."
"It's a good time to cross the river if it doesn't rain now. If it rains, it will be more dangerous tomorrow."
The one who beat the gong was particularly fierce: "There is a fish demon!"
Many people don't believe it: "If there is a navy master, what kind of fish monster dares to come?"
Someone shouted: "Just in time for the fish demon to come and take a look!"
If there is a boat, go to the river.
More boats rowed onto the river.
Young men, young men, young ladies, etc. were all excited to see the fish demon.
Chaos on the river.
Ancestor Yeman was pushed, coerced, and put on a boat.
The Xu River is not too wide here, and it takes about two-quarters of an hour for a typical boat to cross the river.
It will take some time to wait for the boat and get on and off the boat.
The ship that Ancestor Yeman is on is not very good, but it is relatively large, and the people on it are quite mixed.
On one side there are cows, donkeys, horses, and some goods.
There were some people standing in front, also looking forward to the fish monster, trying hard to find the fish monster on the wider river.
On the river, there is a big boat, full of murderous intent.
Someone shouted: "That's the Meng family's boat."
Someone sneered and said nothing.
The Meng family robbed the Li family boat shop, and the boat was not theirs.
Meng Yinggui was in the boat, and there were several people around him, all of whom were extraordinary.
The Meng family investigated here and found many problems. However, they did not expect that so many people would not listen to the Meng family.
The staff is waiting aside, what is Meng Yinggui going to do?
Meng Yinggui came to the deck from the cabin and saw that there were so many boats on the river. Not many of them were actually controlled by the Meng family.
Not to mention the distance, the Meng family can't control this section of Xuhe River. Who can understand that kind of frustration?
The Meng family was still far away. Meng Yinggui covered his chest and felt suffocated.
A wave on the river came over and swept him into the water.
Everyone on the boat was surprised.
A group of guards jumped in immediately, even though the water was very cold.
The staff stood aside nervously, watching as the guard was swept away by the waves, and Meng Yinggui was never seen.
A strong wind blew across the river, and suddenly a heavy rain came down, which made all the staff feel chilly.
How could Meng Yinggui die suddenly? Was he too tired these days?
Ordinarily, he hasn't been called a beauty these past few days.
This boat is also very good.
Compared with the previous capsizing, everyone on the boat is fine this time, except Meng Yinggui. Can the others be fine?
The guards all jumped down to save people, but if they couldn't be saved, they would die.
Those who had not entered the water immediately called the waterman.
The navy has some good men, and they will rescue Meng Yinggui no matter what.
Shen Yongzhen followed the boat ashore and saw that there was really chaos on the river.
Everyone didn't see the fish demon, so they thought the fish demon had come out, and they were all so excited!
