In the Shen family, Shen Yilu sighed in a rare way, while Madam Liu held Shen Ji's hand with a look of reluctance: "Xiao Langjun has never traveled far since he was a child, and the farthest place he has reached is Taikang County, but now he has to go to Going to the south of the Yangtze River, I don't know if the climate will be unacceptable..."
"Does Mammy want to go to Jiangnan with us?" Shen Ji asked Mammy Liu sincerely.
Nanny Liu: "..."
How can the little lady take it seriously!
"How can you let Mammy run around with you?" Li Yunyao relieved Mammy Liu's embarrassment.
Shen Ji said: "That's right, the distance from Bianliang to Jinling is 1000 and [-] miles, and Mammy's body cannot withstand such a toss. Don't worry, Mammy, I will definitely take good care of me and Yinniang, you, parents, and little mother." , don't worry about it."
Not only the Shen family but also Li Yunyao's family saw them off.
Li's mother was very puzzled why Li Yunyao followed him, so she couldn't help complaining when she saw him off: "How far is Jiangnan, and there are so many plagues, how can you suffer so much? It's okay for a man to go far away, it's all for the future , what are you going to do next? It has been more than half a year since you married into Shen's family, and your stomach hasn't moved. According to me, you should stay at home and take good care of yourself..."
Li Yunyao didn't argue with her mother. Anyway, her itinerary to go to Jiangnan will not change. Let her mother chatter for a while, and she won't lose a piece of meat.
"Jiangnan is no longer the barbaric place it used to be. There are more people and less plagues. Don't worry, mother-in-law!" I can’t do without someone, and with her by my side, I think everything will go much better.”
Li Yunyao couldn't help staring at Shen Ji, wondering how she could talk about their "deep affection" like no one else?
However, Shen Ji's words were so effective that Mother Li finally did not persuade Li Yunyao to change his mind.In fact, if Li Yunyao went out alone, the Li family would not agree to it anyway. It was because Shen Ji was accompanying her on the trip this time, so they didn't try to dissuade her too much.
"Ah Lang, madam, Mr. Xiao Lang and the others have packed their bags." The housekeeper Qiu Meng came to report.
"Where are the accompanying people?" Yan Shu asked.
"In addition to Lan'er, the female envoy in Mr. Xiaolang's courtyard, there are also five strong servants selected by Liu Chong and him. This is their reason." Qiu Meng handed over the identity documents of the five servants to Yan Shu for review.
"The caravan from the Jing family also wants to take advantage of the envoys, and talk to Lu Hanlin later, so that he doesn't know and cause misunderstandings." Yan Shu arranged.
Shen Ji and Li Yunyao did not interfere with Yan Shu's decision. Seeing that Lu Duoxun's car was about to leave the palace, they had to rush to meet him, so they didn't delay any longer.
"Father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, we are leaving, we will be back soon, don't worry, take care of yourself!" Shen Ji saluted Shen Yilu, Yan Shu and others.
Shen Yilu, who had been silent all this time, couldn't hold back, and warned her: "Be careful on the road, and you should listen more, watch more and talk less, listen to Lu Hanlin in everything, and don't act without authorization. Also, take care of yourself and your bride."
"Got it, Dad!"
Shen Ji pulled Li Yunyao into the carriage, then lifted the curtain and stuck out his head to wave goodbye to them.
When the carriage went away and there was no sign of him, Shen Yilu was still standing at the door.Yan Shu glanced at him, and said: "Master really doesn't want to let her go far away, just go and talk to the official, and the official will definitely not let her go with her."
Shen Yilu turned his head and said, "Of course I hope that he will be safe and successful in this life, but he has made up his mind to study and take the imperial examination, so he will definitely become an official in the future, and he will also go to work and live in various places. Can I guarantee that he will always be safe and successful?" Is it impossible to stay in Bianliang? So, let him go, and treat it as an early adaptation to the life away from home."
Besides, the officials asked "him" to go with him this time. As long as "he" doesn't cause trouble, it will definitely add something to "his" resume, which is a good thing!
-
The carriage drove to the wharf where the official ship was parked at a leisurely pace. Shen Ji took out his proof and confessed to the officials in charge of the wharf. After checking that there was no problem, he was put on the boat.
This official ship is in charge of water transportation. It is more than 20 feet long and has more than 600 compartments. It can accommodate more than [-] people and carry [-] shi of grain.But this time when Lu Duoxun is going on a mission, Mr. Zhao will naturally not allow the envoys to set off with the ship full of food, so including the Yuan and the sailors on the ship assigned to Lu Duoxun by the government, there are more than [-] people on this ship. people.
Shen Ji and Li Yunyao were arranged in a compartment with a relatively good location and strong confidentiality. Shen Ji, who was on the boat for the first time, was inevitably a little excited, and kept lying by the window looking around.
After Li Yunyao sorted out his belongings, he took out a book and sat on the deck to read it.After Shen Ji found out, she took away her book and said: "Read a book by boat, be careful of seasickness."
Li Yunyao took the book back: "If you don't read it now, when the boat reaches the section of the river where the wind and waves are rough, you will have no choice but to read it."
Shen Ji was still about to say something, when she suddenly heard someone calling her name on the shore outside the boat, she stretched out her head to look, and found that it was Xue Ji.
"Xue Ji is here, I'll get off the boat to see what he has to do." Shen Ji ran away in a hurry, Li Yunyao lost interest in reading, and simply looked out of the window to see what Shen Ji and Xue Ji were doing after getting off the boat What.
"Will Junior Brother come to see me off?" Shen Ji joked.
Xue Ji was so angry that his nose was crooked: "You are not righteous! I proposed to go to Jiangnan at the beginning, why can you go, but I can't?!"
Shen Ji asked him: "Did you ask Uncle Xue's permission to go to Jiangnan?"
Xue Ji was at a loss for words, and it took a while before he said: "If my parents agree, I should be the one on board at this time!"
Shen Ji patted him on the shoulder pretending to be sympathetic: "Don't worry, I will read all the beauties in the south of the Yangtze River for you, and then come back and tell you how I feel."
Xue Ji waved her hand away angrily, and said, "You are too proud, kid."
Shen Ji knew that he was serious and soft-hearted, and he didn't think that he really made him angry, so he said with a smile: "If you are fine, then I can go back to the boat and read a book."
Only then did Xue Ji reveal his real purpose for coming here, and he gloated and said, "The teacher said, since you are lucky enough to go to Jiangnan, don't forget to do your homework in your spare time. When you come back from Jiangnan, you must have two poems, A fu and an essay."
Shen Ji: "..."
She slipped back to the boat immediately, "When you go back and tell the teacher that you missed it, I'm already on board."
"I will tell the teacher that you said that you will finish your homework on time!" Xue Ji was relieved, and felt that Feng Shui was really turning!
Of course, what he didn't know was that Li Mu didn't forget to give him extra homework when he went back to report.
……
Lu Duoxun soon arrived at the pier and boarded the boat. Shen Ji and Li Yunyao went to see him. He didn't say anything because Li Yun was going to be there, but Li Yunyao went back to rest, and Shen Ji couldn't hold back on the deck. When he went for a stroll, he said: "When people go out to study alone, or with fellow countrymen and classmates, it's better for you to take the family with you. Those who don't know will think that the person you are taking with you is concubine Ji!"
When people travel far away, especially merchants, unless they want to live in a certain place for a long time, they will let their wives and children follow them, otherwise most of the time they will bring Ji concubine with them.Shen Ji went to Jiangnan this time, and he only stayed for a few days at most, but he brought Li Yunyao with him, which is really rare.
Shen Ji said: "my wife counts me as half a teacher, I brought her out to respect the teacher, respect the old and love the young, respect..."
"Okay, a bunch of nonsense." Lu Duoxun interrupted her, and told her that their trip to the south of the Yangtze River, although it looks calm on the surface, is actually turbulent and dangerous, so when she and Li Yunyao arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, they must Be prepared to withdraw at any time.
As it was about his and Li Yunyao's family and life, Shen Ji was quite concerned about it.
After finishing the business, she asked: "Then can I go for a walk on the streets of Jinling?"
Luderson: "..."
Dare to love your left ear into the right ear out!
But he still nodded his head: "You are not an envoy sent by the government. It is expected that the lord of Jiangnan will not invite you to meet. If you can't stay in the post, you can go out, but Jinling is not Bianliang after all, and you can't do things. It’s as shapeless as in Bianliang.”
"Oh."
Seeing Shen Ji's eyeballs rolling, Lu Duoxun didn't know what the hell he was thinking.He has already said what he should say, and Zhao Laoer mentioned that he can use Shen Ji to attract the attention of those people in Jiangnan, so that he can act quietly. It is because he thinks that he, as Shen Ji's uncle and elder, should not let Shen Ji Ji went to sow hatred, so he mentioned her.
……
The boat sailed away from the pier and slowly drifted southeast along the Bian River. Behind them was a merchant ship with the word "Jing" printed on the sail.Shen Ji remembered that her mother had mentioned the Jing family's caravan, so she guessed it was this ship.
"The Jing family? I seem to have heard of this family." Shen Ji was not sure, and asked Liu Chong.
Liu Chong is the adopted son of Nanny Liu, who is two years older than Liu Xianxian. He has been working under Yan Shu these years, but because he is not in charge of the internal affairs, he spends most of his time outside, so Shen Ji and He wasn't very close.
But on this ship, Liu Chong was the only one who knew the Shen family's relationship better.
Liu Chong was a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a strong body. Hearing Shen Ji's question, he replied: "The Jing family has business dealings with Madam, and the Jing family also sends congratulatory gifts to the Shen family during festivals. When Mr. Xiao Lang got married, the cook at Jingchang Qinglou was in charge of the banquet at home."
"So it's them." Shen Ji nodded, not very interested in this, so he didn't ask further.
Li Yunyao, who came out to breathe, just heard Liu Chong's words, and she asked, "I heard that the shopkeeper of Changqing Building is a woman."
Liu Chong said: "The shopkeeper of Changqing Building is indeed a woman, named Jingying, known as 'Jing Jiuniang'. Besides, she has a close relationship with Lady Yun."
Shen Ji became interested: "What origin?"
"Jing Jiuniang is the youngest daughter of Jing Yanguang, a power official in the Jin Dynasty. She is a nine-year-old, so she is called 'Jiu Niang'. Jing Yanguang was kidnapped by the Khitan and forced to die, and his family was almost slaughtered by his political opponents. Fortunately, Yun The lady's grandfather blessed them, and they escaped unharmed. Most of the Jing clan settled in Luoyang, and only Jing Jiuniang came to Bianliang..."
Speaking of Jing Yanguang, he is a legendary laughing stock that everyone in the world knows:
Decades ago at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world fell apart and there was chaos everywhere.However, Emperor Zhu Wen of Liang was cruel and ruthless, and princes from all walks of life attacked him one after another.
Jing Yanguang was in the Liang army at that time. At that time, he was just a little-known pawn. He was captured because of defeat and was about to be executed. But he met Shi Jingtang. Feeling safe, he was accepted as a personal soldier.
Later Shi Jingtang became the emperor, and Jing Yanguang, as his confidant, was naturally reused.Afterwards, Jing Yanguang rose to the top and skyrocketed, holding a heavy army, and later supported Shi Chonggui as the emperor, and he became a powerful minister of the Jin Dynasty.
With power, there is no need to be afraid of others. Only then did Jing Yanguang reveal that he did not like Khitan's thoughts, and he believed that after more than ten years of development, the Jin family was already strong, and Khitan was nothing to be afraid of. Khitan proclaimed himself a vassal.
Khitan felt that Jing Yanguang's attitude was very arrogant, so he sent troops to attack angrily.
If Jing Yanguang had always been so proud and strong, even if he died, he would still have a good reputation.It's a pity that after he lost the battle with the Khitan, he fell into a slump, thinking that "your Khitan father is still your father", and it is impossible for him to defeat his father.
He no longer has the ambitions of the past, and even focuses on corruption to make his life better.
Later, the Khitan emperor was so angry that he felt that it was him, a shit-stirring stick, who was stirring up the wind and rain here, so the Khitan would fight the Jin army.So the Khitan emperor sent people to Luoyang to arrest Jing Yanguang, who was still immersed in a luxurious life. He was afraid of being tortured by the Khitan inhumanely, so he committed suicide at night. ①
When his subordinates heard of his death, they let the Khitans burn, kill and loot Luoyang, but they packed up their bags and fled.Li Jurun, who was an official in the Jin family at that time, protected the Jing clan and enabled them to live a stable life until now. ②
Li Yunyao was silent for a moment after listening, and said: "Grandfather never mentioned this matter before his death."
Liu Chong boasted: "Obviously, in Li Taishi's heart, protecting the Jing clan is not a great kindness. He never repays the favor, which shows that Li Taishi is very righteous!"
Li Yunyao smiled slightly and asked, "How did the mother-in-law get on line with the Jing family?"
Shen Ji replied enthusiastically: "My mother must know what Jing Jiuniang is capable of, so she took her down early!"
In order to change the fate of "Yan Shi", her mother took great pains. Even her love rivals can be dormant by her. Jing Jiuniang is probably an important character in the original book, so she was accepted in advance!
Although Yan Shu didn't deliberately mention Jing's existence to her, it has to be said that the truth is very close.
However, Jing Jiuniang is not a positive role in the original book. She was only six years old when the Jing family was in trouble. If Li Jurun hadn't appeared to protect them from the Khitan people, she might have been taken captive to Khitan, or He became the ghost of the Khitan people under the knife.
She has always kept Li Jurun's kindness in mind, but because of her sensitive and embarrassing background, she can only keep her name incognito and act in a low-key manner.After Li Jurun died of illness, she has been secretly helping the Li family.
Later, Li Yunyao was hit by the divorce and died in depression, but the Wu family had no repentance. Jing Jiuniang hated the Wu family and kept targeting the Wu family, stumbling the male lead, etc., and finally was exposed and executed. .
All in all, she's a villain.
Yan Shu knew her ability, so he drew her in early, and gave her a completely different path from the original book, preventing her from being blinded by hatred and going against the male lead.Now Jing Jiuniang, who is devoted to her career, lives a much more wanton life than in the original book.
When Liu Chong heard Shen Ji praising Jing Jiuniang, the expression on his face finally changed slightly, as if the ice melted in spring, showing a trace of warmth.He echoed: "Jing Jiuniang is indeed very capable, she is a very outstanding woman."
Shen Ji suddenly tilted his head to look at him: "I used 'a' when I said her, but you used 'bit'. It seems that she has an unusual status in your heart. You like her."
Liu Chong hesitated to speak, and after a while he lacked confidence and said: "Young Lord, don't talk nonsense, if it reaches her ears..."
"Like is like, what's there to cover up? If you like someone, you should say it early, so as not to miss it." Shen Ji said.
Li Yunyao was startled, then stared at Shen Ji with complicated eyes: Could it be that she was regretting not confessing to Lu Nianchuan earlier?
Thinking of this, Li Yunyao lost his good mood and turned back to the cabin.
Shen Ji hurriedly asked: "Are you out of breath?"
"I'm a little seasick, I'm going back to rest." Li Yunyao said quietly.
Shen Ji didn't speak any more, Li Yunyao couldn't hide his disappointment.In fact, she wasn't really seasick, but she just hoped to get Shen Ji's care for a while, but she didn't expect Shen Ji to really focus on Lu Nianchuan...
"What am I being hypocritical about!" Li Yunyao laughed at himself.
Suddenly, Shen Ji's voice sounded at the door: "How can it be hypocritical to say that you are not feeling well? You are asking for trouble even if you are not feeling well."
Li Yunyao looked at her, and she came in from the door, carrying a pot of steaming tea: "I heard that you can drink strong tea for seasickness, but right now I don't have time to order tea, so I can only brew it. You drink a bowl and lie down Come on, don't look outside."
Shen Ji is so considerate and careful, Li Yunyao suddenly remembered that before she and Shen Ji had conflicts, they were childhood sweethearts who had a very good relationship. When she was sad, Shen Ji was also so caring and considerate to her.
"The tea is a bit hot, wait a minute, I'll blow it." Shen Ji didn't realize that Li Yunyao was too far away, she held the bowl and blew away the hot air on it, fearing that her saliva would spray in, so she blew it Be very careful.
Li Yunyao looked at her small movements, the concern just now disappeared, and his heart seemed to be filled with deep affection again.
"It's not hot anymore, drink it!" Shen Ji held the tea bowl and handed it to Li Yunyao himself.
The hull of the boat shook a little, Li Yunyao had to raise his hand to cover Shen Ji's hand to fix the tea bowl.Shen Ji's hand was covered by her, feeling the warmth from her palm, he was distracted for a moment.
"What kind of tea is this? It's a bit bitter." Li Yunyao frowned.
"How good is the boatman's tea? But because of the bitterness, the effect of relieving seasickness is better. You just took a sip, and there is still a lot!" Shen Ji persuaded.
Li Yunyao wasn't really seasick, but just said it casually, how could Shen Ji really take it seriously?
She didn't want to drink, Shen Ji heard that if she didn't drink, she would get seasick and feel uncomfortable, how could this work? !
"You must drink, you will suffer if you don't drink."
Li Yunyao asked in a strange manner: "It's my business that I feel uncomfortable, why are you so nervous?"
Shen Ji answered subconsciously: "You feel bad and I don't feel good either!"
After speaking, both of them were stunned.
The author says:
The number of words is more, it can be regarded as making up for what was missed yesterday! ! ! !

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
"Does Mammy want to go to Jiangnan with us?" Shen Ji asked Mammy Liu sincerely.
Nanny Liu: "..."
How can the little lady take it seriously!
"How can you let Mammy run around with you?" Li Yunyao relieved Mammy Liu's embarrassment.
Shen Ji said: "That's right, the distance from Bianliang to Jinling is 1000 and [-] miles, and Mammy's body cannot withstand such a toss. Don't worry, Mammy, I will definitely take good care of me and Yinniang, you, parents, and little mother." , don't worry about it."
Not only the Shen family but also Li Yunyao's family saw them off.
Li's mother was very puzzled why Li Yunyao followed him, so she couldn't help complaining when she saw him off: "How far is Jiangnan, and there are so many plagues, how can you suffer so much? It's okay for a man to go far away, it's all for the future , what are you going to do next? It has been more than half a year since you married into Shen's family, and your stomach hasn't moved.

Of course, what he didn't know was that Li Mu didn't forget to give him extra homework when he went back to report.

Liu Chong said: "The shopkeeper of Changqing Building is indeed a woman, named Jingying, known as 'Jing Jiuniang'. Besides, she has a close relationship with Lady Yun."
Shen Ji became interested: "What origin?"
"Jing Jiuniang is the youngest daughter of Jing Yanguang, a power official in the Jin Dynasty. She is a nine-year-old, so she is called 'Jiu Niang'. Jing Yanguang was kidnapped by the Khitan and forced to die, and his family was almost slaughtered by his political opponents. Fortunately, Yun The lady's grandfather blessed them, and they escaped unharmed. Most of the Jing clan settled in Luoyang, and only Jing Jiuniang came to Bianliang..."
Speaking of Jing Yanguang, he is a legendary laughing stock that everyone in the world knows:
Decades ago at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world fell apart and there was chaos everywhere.However, Emperor Zhu Wen of Liang was cruel and ruthless, and princes from all walks of life attacked him one after another.
Jing Yanguang was in the Liang army at that time. At that time, he was just a little-known pawn. He was captured because of defeat and was about to be executed. But he met Shi Jingtang. Feeling safe, he was accepted as a personal soldier.
Later Shi Jingtang became the emperor, and Jing Yanguang, as his confidant, was naturally reused.Afterwards, Jing Yanguang rose to the top and skyrocketed, holding a heavy army, and later supported Shi Chonggui as the emperor, and he became a powerful minister of the Jin Dynasty.
With power, there is no need to be afraid of others. Only then did Jing Yanguang reveal that he did not like Khitan's thoughts, and he believed that after more than ten years of development, the Jin family was already strong, and Khitan was nothing to be afraid of. Khitan proclaimed himself a vassal.
Khitan felt that Jing Yanguang's attitude was very arrogant, so he sent troops to attack angrily.
If Jing Yanguang had always been so proud and strong, even if he died, he would still have a good reputation.It's a pity that after he lost the battle with the Khitan, he fell into a slump, thinking that "your Khitan father is still your father", and it is impossible for him to defeat his father.
He no longer has the ambitions of the past, and even focuses on corruption to make his life better.
Later, the Khitan emperor was so angry that he felt that it was him, a shit-stirring stick, who was stirring up the wind and rain here, so the Khitan would fight the Jin army.So the Khitan emperor sent people to Luoyang to arrest Jing Yanguang, who was still immersed in a luxurious life. He was afraid of being tortured by the Khitan inhumanely, so he committed suicide at night. ①
When his subordinates heard of his death, they let the Khitans burn, kill and loot Luoyang, but they packed up their bags and fled.Li Jurun, who was an official in the Jin family at that time, protected the Jing clan and enabled them to live a stable life until now. ②
Li Yunyao was silent for a moment after listening, and said: "Grandfather never mentioned this matter before his death."
Liu Chong boasted: "Obviously, in Li Taishi's heart, protecting the Jing clan is not a great kindness. He never repays the favor, which shows that Li Taishi is very righteous!"
Li Yunyao smiled slightly and asked, "How did the mother-in-law get on line with the Jing family?"
Shen Ji replied enthusiastically: "My mother must know what Jing Jiuniang is capable of, so she took her down early!"
In order to change the fate of "Yan Shi", her mother took great pains. Even her love rivals can be dormant by her. Jing Jiuniang is probably an important character in the original book, so she was accepted in advance!
Although Yan Shu didn't deliberately mention Jing's existence to her, it has to be said that the truth is very close.
However, Jing Jiuniang is not a positive role in the original book. She was only six years old when the Jing family was in trouble. If Li Jurun hadn't appeared to protect them from the Khitan people, she might have been taken captive to Khitan, or He became the ghost of the Khitan people under the knife.
She has always kept Li Jurun's kindness in mind, but because of her sensitive and embarrassing background, she can only keep her name incognito and act in a low-key manner.After Li Jurun died of illness, she has been secretly helping the Li family.
Later, Li Yunyao was hit by the divorce and died in depression, but the Wu family had no repentance. Jing Jiuniang hated the Wu family and kept targeting the Wu family, stumbling the male lead, etc., and finally was exposed and executed. .
All in all, she's a villain.
Yan Shu knew her ability, so he drew her in early, and gave her a completely different path from the original book, preventing her from being blinded by hatred and going against the male lead.Now Jing Jiuniang, who is devoted to her career, lives a much more wanton life than in the original book.
When Liu Chong heard Shen Ji praising Jing Jiuniang, the expression on his face finally changed slightly, as if the ice melted in spring, showing a trace of warmth.He echoed: "Jing Jiuniang is indeed very capable, she is a very outstanding woman."
Shen Ji suddenly tilted his head to look at him: "I used 'a' when I said her, but you used 'bit'. It seems that she has an unusual status in your heart. You like her."
Liu Chong hesitated to speak, and after a while he lacked confidence and said: "Young Lord, don't talk nonsense, if it reaches her ears..."
"Like is like, what's there to cover up? If you like someone, you should say it early, so as not to miss it." Shen Ji said.
Li Yunyao was startled, then stared at Shen Ji with complicated eyes: Could it be that she was regretting not confessing to Lu Nianchuan earlier?
Thinking of this, Li Yunyao lost his good mood and turned back to the cabin.
Shen Ji hurriedly asked: "Are you out of breath?"
"I'm a little seasick, I'm going back to rest." Li Yunyao said quietly.
Shen Ji didn't speak any more, Li Yunyao couldn't hide his disappointment.In fact, she wasn't really seasick, but she just hoped to get Shen Ji's care for a while, but she didn't expect Shen Ji to really focus on Lu Nianchuan...
"What am I being hypocritical about!" Li Yunyao laughed at himself.
Suddenly, Shen Ji's voice sounded at the door: "How can it be hypocritical to say that you are not feeling well? You are asking for trouble even if you are not feeling well."
Li Yunyao looked at her, and she came in from the door, carrying a pot of steaming tea: "I heard that you can drink strong tea for seasickness, but right now I don't have time to order tea, so I can only brew it. You drink a bowl and lie down Come on, don't look outside."
Shen Ji is so considerate and careful, Li Yunyao suddenly remembered that before she and Shen Ji had conflicts, they were childhood sweethearts who had a very good relationship. When she was sad, Shen Ji was also so caring and considerate to her.
"The tea is a bit hot, wait a minute, I'll blow it." Shen Ji didn't realize that Li Yunyao was too far away, she held the bowl and blew away the hot air on it, fearing that her saliva would spray in, so she blew it Be very careful.
Li Yunyao looked at her small movements, the concern just now disappeared, and his heart seemed to be filled with deep affection again.
"It's not hot anymore, drink it!" Shen Ji held the tea bowl and handed it to Li Yunyao himself.
The hull of the boat shook a little, Li Yunyao had to raise his hand to cover Shen Ji's hand to fix the tea bowl.Shen Ji's hand was covered by her, feeling the warmth from her palm, he was distracted for a moment.
"What kind of tea is this? It's a bit bitter." Li Yunyao frowned.
"How good is the boatman's tea? But because of the bitterness, the effect of relieving seasickness is better. You just took a sip, and there is still a lot!" Shen Ji persuaded.
Li Yunyao wasn't really seasick, but just said it casually, how could Shen Ji really take it seriously?
She didn't want to drink, Shen Ji heard that if she didn't drink, she would get seasick and feel uncomfortable, how could this work? !
"You must drink, you will suffer if you don't drink."
Li Yunyao asked in a strange manner: "It's my business that I feel uncomfortable, why are you so nervous?"
Shen Ji answered subconsciously: "You feel bad and I don't feel good either!"
After speaking, both of them were stunned.
The author says:
The number of words is more, it can be regarded as making up for what was missed yesterday! ! ! !
