Abandoned dock on the outskirts of Ningmen Prefecture.

Daohua woke up to the sound of turning books. She opened her eyes and was stunned for a while. She turned her head and saw Xiao Yeyang sitting in front of the window looking at a map.

Xiao Yeyang seemed to be aware of it, and looked towards the bed. As soon as he raised his eyes, he met Daohua's hazy sleepy eyes, and immediately chuckled: "Wake up, did I wake you?"

Daohua shook her head, looked at the sky outside the window, and asked, "What time is it now? Haven't you arrived at Ningmen Mansion yet?" As she spoke, she sat up.

Xiao Yeyang walked to the bed and saw that Daohua's bun was a little messy. While helping her tidy up, he said: "It's already past four o'clock (14:00). There are people at the dock and there is noisy. I didn't let her go there."

, now we are at the edge of an abandoned dock."

When Daohua heard that it was already four minutes later, she was shocked: "It's already so late, why didn't you call me? Are you still here now? Is it too late?"

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: "Don't worry, this time I went to Northern Xinjiang to secretly deliver weapons. I might attract attention if I leave during the day, so I left tonight."

Daohua breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Wang Maner came in with hot water: "Girl, wash your face."

Daohua nodded and walked to the basin to wash her face.

Xiao Yeyang put away the map on the table and asked Defu to bring the food. Then he sat aside and watched. When he saw Daohua applying lipstick on her red lips, she immediately walked over and waited for Daohua.

After using it, he reached for the lip balm box, put it under his nose, smelled it, and said with a smile: "I told you why you smelled the fragrance of magnolia flowers. It turns out it's coming from your lip balm."

Daohua glanced at him sideways and snatched the lipstick: "You should also look at the things that girls use at home."

Xiao Yeyang smiled: "You didn't use lipstick before, why are you using it now?"

Daohua: "I don't know if it's because of the internal heat during this period. My lips are a little dry. I need to apply some lip balm to moisturize them."

After Xiao Yeyang heard this, his eyes fell on Daohua's red lips. The lips smeared with lipstick looked more supple and plump.

Daohua felt uncomfortable and glared at Xiao Yeyang. She stood up and pushed him away. She walked to the window and looked at the situation outside: "Isn't this abandoned dock where One Eye and Baldhead tied us to the boat?

?"

Xiao Yeyang walked over with a smile: "You have a good memory."

At this time, Defu came over with a food box: "Master, Miss Yan, it's time to eat." After saying that, he quickly placed the food on the table.

After setting it up, Defu winked at Wang Maner, who was standing still, and motioned for her to follow him out.

Wang Man'er looked at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang who were sitting at the table, and followed Defu out of the room.

Looking at the food on the table, Daohua really felt hungry. She took the fish soup from Xiao Ye Yangsheng and took a quick sip from the bowl.

Xiao Yeyang saw it and said quickly: "Slow down."

Daohua took a few sips before putting it down: "This fish soup is really delicious."

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: "The fish used to make the soup were temporarily caught from the river, so of course it was fresh." Seeing that there was soup on Daohua's mouth, he immediately stretched out his hand to wipe it for her.

Daohua turned her head away: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Yeyang reached out again and wiped away the soup from her mouth, and then smiled and said: "Your mouth is dirty."

Daohua took out her handkerchief and wiped it again: "Next time, just tell me directly."

Xiao Yeyang didn't answer, picked up a piece of steamed fish with chopsticks, picked out the thorns, and put it on Daohua's dish: "Have a try, the boat girl's skill in cooking fish is very good."

Daohua lowered her head and started eating, nodding as she ate: "Well, it tastes really good."

Seeing that she loved to eat, Xiao Yeyang gave her a few more chopsticks.

After a while, when the rice flowers were almost finished eating, Xiao Yeyang said: "While I'm away, if you need anything, just go to the steward of Liulicu."

Daohua put down her chopsticks: "What can I do at home? It's up to you. Although I'm just going to deliver things, you still have to be careful." After saying that, he paused and said, "Come back early."

Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I will come back to see you soon." After saying that, he glanced at Daohua jokingly, "Don't miss me too much."

Seeing that Xiao Yeyang was still in the mood to joke about such a serious matter, Daohua immediately glared at him angrily, thought for a moment, and then said: "The weapons in Sishan Village were forged privately by the Eighth Prince.

After taking over that place, didn't they notice it at all?"

Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "It shouldn't happen yet. When we took over Sishan Village, it was near the end of the year and there were too many things to take care of. But... after sending the weapons to Northern Xinjiang this time, I'm afraid it will

I can’t hide it anymore, there are also people from the Eight Kings in the northern Xinjiang military camp."

Daohua looked worried: "What should I do? Will the Eighth Prince attack you?"

Xiao Yeyang: "...This is inevitable."

Daohua's heart suddenly rose. She was not worried about Tatar in the light, but she was afraid of her 'own people' hiding in the dark.

Seeing that Daohua was worried, Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand to hold her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we are sending weapons secretly. If Uncle Eighth King really wants to cause trouble, he will also go to Master Wu."

The emperor's uncle also had this consideration in handing Sishan Village over to Governor Wu to take charge of. No merit can be attributed to white-collar workers.

Daohua was still a little worried: "Is it true? I always feel that those secret guards and assassins are so pervasive that nothing can be hidden from them."

Xiao Yeyang laughed: "How can he be so powerful? He is not a god." After saying that, he patted her hand and said, "Don't worry blindly. If I can't even do this, how can I be successful in the future?

”

Daohua tilted her head and looked at him, remaining silent and saying nothing.

Although Xiao Yeyang did not mention Concubine Ma's support during this period, she could feel that this guy was holding a breath in his heart.

I may have had this tone since I was a child.

"Be careful and don't be too aggressive."

Xiao Yeyang nodded: "When you go to Taohua Village to see your mother-in-law and Master Gu, bring more mother-in-law and servants with you." After a moment of silence, he added, "You must wear the curtain hat."

Daohua said ‘hmm’.

Xiao Yeyang looked at the sky: "Let's go, I'll take you back."

Defu has already prepared the carriage, and Wang Man'er has also packed Daohua's things.

After getting off the boat, Xiao Yeyang helped Daohua get on the carriage, and then sat on it himself.

Daohua glanced at him and said nothing.

The carriage started slowly. In the car, Daohua leaned on the small table with her elbows and looked at the scenery outside the car, while Xiao Yeyang looked at her silently, neither of them spoke.

As she gradually approached the city gate, Daohua felt a little irritable. She lowered the car curtain and stopped looking outside, leaning on the car and playing with the palace ribbon.

Xiao Yeyang felt a little depressed and blocked at the moment. He took Daohua's hand and said with a forced smile: "I'll come back as soon as possible to spend the Dragon Boat Festival with you."

Daohua nodded.

Hearing the noise of pedestrians outside, Xiao Yeyang knew that the city gate was coming, and glanced at Daohua reluctantly: "After entering the city, you go back to your house by yourself, and I won't follow you."

Daohua: "...Okay."

As they approached the city gate, the carriage stopped.

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, opened the door and jumped out of the carriage.

Daohua sat in the carriage and did not move. When the carriage started again, she couldn't help but lift the curtain and look back.

Xiao Yeyang saw it and walked up quickly: "What's wrong?"

Daohua wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it. She stared at Xiao Yeyang who was chasing the carriage for a while: "Go early and come back early."

Xiao Yeyang also had a lot to say in his heart, but he couldn't say a word at this time. In the end, he just smiled and said: "Wait until I come back to drink the peach blossom wine we made together."

After saying that, he gradually stopped and watched the carriage go away.

Daohua didn't look much, she quickly lowered the car curtain, leaned against the car, took several deep breaths, and then felt a little calmer.

......

Yanfu.

As soon as Daohua came back, she first met Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li, and then went to Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai's yard.

"Big sister!"

Seeing the rice flowers, both of them were very happy.

Daohua looked at the two of them and was silent for a while before saying, "Be careful when you go out."

Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao both nodded: "Don't worry, we are all grown up and we will take care of ourselves."

Daohua took the baggage from Wang Maner's hand and handed them the ginseng tonic pills and several banknotes prepared for them.

Seeing the banknote, Yan Wentao immediately shook his head and refused: "Daohua, uncle and aunt gave us the money, please put the banknote away quickly, we don't want it."

Daohua showed disapproval: "What they give is theirs, and what I give is mine. The two cannot be confused. As the old saying goes, if a poor family is rich, bring more money with you to be prepared."

Yan Wenkai was not polite. He took the ginseng tonic pill and asked curiously: "Sister, what is this?"

Daohua immediately explained the functions of Ginseng Dabu Pills.

Yan Wenkai's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this: "This thing is good. When we are out on business, we often miss meals and are so hungry that we feel dizzy."

Daohua: "You guys left in such a hurry this time that I didn't have time to do more. Let's wait until next time. I'll definitely take care of it next time."

Yan Wenkai immediately smiled and nodded.

Yan Wentao said: "Isn't this thing cheap to prepare?"

Daohua smiled and said: "Don't worry, I use all the medicinal materials from my own village."

Yan Wenkai immediately sighed: "It would be great to have a rich sister."

Yan Wentao glared at him angrily. This guy didn't know how to be polite when using his sister's things.

Yan Wenkai said it didn't matter. Now that my sister has plenty of money, she can help them out. When they have good things in the future, they can resupply her.

......

After dinner, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai left quietly. Daohua sent the two to the door and watched their figures disappear into the dark night.

On the way back to the yard, Daohua suddenly felt that the Yan family's backyard seemed a lot quieter. The eldest brother had gone to Beijing, and the third and fourth brothers were now starting to run for their own futures.
