Chapter 257 Bath Beans and Soap
After dinner, Cao Yi and others finally asked the restaurant to cook a lot of dishes and then delivered them to the merchant ship on the dock. The people who came down had food, drink and play, so they had to let the people who stayed on the boat taste Runzhou's food. However, there were nearly a hundred people on the boat, and if ten people were a table, they would have to have nearly ten tables. The restaurant was naturally very happy about the business that could receive such a large order. In order to transport food, they also asked other families that they borrowed three carriages just to transport food, and it took two trips to complete the ship...
Hongxiu was also excited to see her teacher. Although she followed the young master at noon, she was still concerned about the teacher who was staying on the boat. Cao Yi knew that Uncle Wang must have been drinking in the afternoon, but she didn't know how much she drank. However, he also wanted to see Uncle Wang's embarrassing appearance, so he didn't stop Hongxiu. However, when he and Hongxiu saw Uncle Wang and Wang Fu fell drunk on the ground, the corners of his eyes still couldn't help but jump...
"Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, it is said that young people don't know how to control themselves and don't pay attention to their health. You are already past the age of knowing destiny. Why are you still like this? It's great now. In the future, at least before Yangzhou, you won't think of drinking on the boat." Cao Yi had a smile on his lips, and his eyes were filled with gloating expressions.
Although Hongxiu was angry, as a disciple, it was necessary to take care of drunken teachers. Although there was a carpet on the deck in the main cabin, it was February after all, and the weather was still very cold. If the two of them had not drunk the strong wine they drank, they might have caught a cold or got sick. Cao Yi quickly asked Gongye Yuanzhou to send the two back to their own cabin.
Cao Yi looked at Hongxiu, who was still secretly angry, and smiled and said, "Okay, Hongxiu, you don't know Uncle Wang's personality. You said he has no wife and children and is lonely all his life, which is just a good sip. Moreover, he has been drinking for decades. If you don't let him drink it, he can't correct it. Moreover, it's better to keep the wine and leave some amount for him every day. You see, he was too harsh before, so he would take advantage of the afternoon and drink it very much, so he would drink it like this."
Hongxiu twitched his nose and said in a crying voice: "Why didn't I let the teacher drink? In the afternoon, he said he wanted to stay and let us go and play. I knew that he must have wanted to drink when we left, so I just pretended not to know, but he... he was too... too uncontrollable..."
Hongxiu said that there was something that could not be said later. After all, in this era, the status of heaven, earth, kingdom, teacher, and teachers in the minds of students is still very noble. She is a student who is not restrained by her teacher, which is a very disrespectful act of respecting teachers and respecting etiquette. With her personality, she really makes her embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, when Uncle Wang wakes up tomorrow, I will talk about him well. No matter how much I like to drink, I must control the amount and grasp it well
"Cao Yi said comfortingly.
In the evening, because everyone climbed and climbed the hills in the afternoon, they were already tired, so everyone went back to the cabin early to rest, without saying a word all night. I don’t know if it was because of being tired or getting used to it. Everyone was resting very well that night, even Hongxiu and Dan Tai Mingde no longer had seasick symptoms.
The next morning, Cao Yi woke up and was exercising on the deck early, and met Wang Fu. Wang Fu saw Cao Yi from afar and walked over quickly, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and hesitated: "Last night... I made the young master... you laughed..."
Cao Yi slowed down his movements and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang seems to have a great conversation with Uncle Wang yesterday."
Wang Fu smiled embarrassedly and said, "Young Master, I don't care about the wine you gave me. I don't want to drink it. Yesterday afternoon, the prince invited me to drink it. I actually wanted it, and I could drink it happily, so...just..."
"Mr. Wang, it doesn't matter if you stay on the dock and rest, then you can drink more. However, when driving during the day, Mr. Wang must restrain one or two." Cao Yiyi said with some reference.
"Please rest assured, this young master, I have never had any problems with drunkenness in this industry for so many years." Wang Fu patted his chest and promised.
"Well, I naturally believe Mr. Wang's words, otherwise I wouldn't have invited Mr. Wang to plan a situation on the water transportation, so Mr. Wang doesn't need to worry about this... But are those two girls on the boat?" Cao Yi looked up at the sky and asked.
"Young Master, there is not yet, but it's almost there. You should board the ship by Chen Shi." Wang Fu also looked at the sky and replied respectfully.
Cao Yi nodded, greeted Wang Fu, and continued to exercise. Although running on the boat was not suitable, the deck was large and flat enough, and it was enough for him to perform on it.
Later, when we arrived at Chen, the two women came up. They looked graceful from a distance, but they were both covered in white veils and could not see clearly. They were communicating with Wang Fu at the boarding place. Then they saw Wang Fu pointing at Cao Yi for a few points. The two girls turned their heads and looked here, thinking that they were talking about the merchant ship being taken by Cao Yi.
Sure enough, after a while, he saw Wang Fu leading the two girls over. He was getting closer and he could see clearly. The two girls were wearing pink clothes, and their faces were filled with indescribable charm. Their black hair was drooping, and they were tied with a pink hairband. They were wearing a layer of white gauze on their faces. They couldn't see clearly below them. However, the exposed forehead looked like fat, their eyebrows were as blue as smoke, and their apricot eyes were shimmering, and their charm was very charming.
The other one is a light yellow long skirt, which is small and exquisite, and also has white gauze. Judging from the exposed upper part, it is only slightly inferior to the pink long skirt. Cao Yi guessed that it should be the maid and maid of the pink group of women.
When the two approached, Wang Fu introduced each other to each other, but he didn't say much. He just mentioned some surnames, such as Mr. Cao, and Miss Yue and Miss Xing'er. Because they were not very familiar, Cao Yi just nodded and greeted each other. However, when the Miss Yue greeted her, her voice was like a yellow oriole, which was numb, but her tone was a bit cold, which seemed to make people feel a sense of distance unconsciously.
Because Cao Yi was still doing exercise, he didn't talk much: "Two girls are exercising... I'll let someone take the two girls to your cabin first, you can rest in it, or take a look at it at will..." Then he asked a storm to take the two to Hongxiu and asked her to make arrangements on her behalf.
...
At this time, the two girls who had boarded the ship were sitting on the bed resting in the cabin. The white veil on their faces was also taken down, revealing the charming and beautiful faces below. They were looking out through the small window in the cabin, looking out at the river and the scenery in the distance. At this time, the merchant ship was slowly moving and began to continue sailing to Yangzhou.
"Miss, that girl named Hongxiu is so beautiful, and I saw several girls on the way just now, especially the girl named Youwei. I feel that she is no less than Miss..." The girl in a light yellow dress called Xing'er girl by Mr. Wang said at this time, with a surprised expression on her face.
"What does it mean to be no less than me. Being heard by others will only make people laugh. I am just an ordinary woman with an ordinary appearance, but I am not as good-looking as the girls just now. Xing'er, you are still young now. If you go in a few years, I'm afraid you can compete with them." Miss Yue'er, dressed in a group of pinks, responded with a smile.
"Miss, just telling jokes. If you are all ordinary women with ordinary appearance, then wouldn't most women in Yangzhou be ugly? Besides, you are an ordinary woman. Even if you say it yourself, I'm afraid that Master Xuan and Master Liu Chengze and Master Liu of Liu will not agree." Xing'er said with a giggle at this time.
Miss Yue shook her head, showed a helpless smile on her face, then paused and said, "Xing'er, I heard that this ship was taken by the rich young man named Cao, and transported the goods to Yangzhou for business?"
Xing'er recalled with her head and nodded: "Yes, what's wrong, Miss, is there any problem?"
