Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eighth Ship Delivery
"Thank you, Brother Yanzu, for your concern, but I'm just here alone, and there's nothing to pay attention to. Just bringing some food and clothing is enough."
Xie Li smiled and replied to Huan Xian, but the muscles on his face were somewhat unnatural.
Although my body was no longer as painful as before, it was not completely rigorous. Exercising my breath with a little force will still cause injuries on my body.
"Hey, from Jiangling to Jiankang, after all, the mountains are high and the road is far. Although you can go east along the river, it is Jing Xuan's first time, so he must not be very familiar with this waterway. If you are alone, it will definitely be inconvenient."
Huan Xian held his forehead and thought, "Now there are many boats and boatmen on the riverside, so we can't use them. Let's do this. I'll pick one out there later and arrange a few more people. Then go east with Jing Xuan."
"Well……"
Xie Li was slightly stunned. Huan Xian was too loyal to him.
However, what he said is indeed the case. Although he has left a lot of footprints throughout the continent, it has been all in his previous life.
Moreover, the various transportation tools at that time made him feel at ease enough that he didn't have to care about the road conditions and waterways at all.
But it's different here. If you only go there by yourself, you can only hire a small boat. In this surging river, I'm really worried about this safety issue.
If you change to the Huan family ship and add a few boatmen who are familiar with waterways, the safety index will naturally be much higher.
At that time, you don’t have to worry about the ship being shoddy and sinking into the bottom of the river; second, you don’t have to worry about not knowing the waterway and capsizing the gutter; third, those boatmen are people they know in the Huan family, and you don’t have to worry about being asked some strange questions about “eat wonton noodles or bark noodles” in the middle of the journey after hiring others halfway.
But this favor is a bit big.
Fortunately, I had done some advice to them a few days ago, and when I thought about it this way, I felt a little more balanced.
"Okay... I thought about it carefully just now. Brother Yan Zu said so much. Xie Li, I can only be honest with you."
Xie Li stood up straight with some difficulty, then bowed to Huan Xian and said.
"Hey, Jing Xuan is your fault."
Huan Xian hurriedly helped Xie Li back to the couch, and then laughed and said, "Before, Jing Xuan solved such a big problem for his father, we were worried that we couldn't find a way to thank him. Moreover, it was just a few servants and a ship. Compared with Jing Xuan's achievements, it can be said to be a tiny ox."
"Okay... Brother Yanzu, don't put a high hat on me... Don't mention the previous things." Xie Li returned with a wry smile, thinking that if he was not a meritorious person, he said something else. But for the Huan Mansion, the ship was indeed like a drop in the bucket, but for himself, it was equivalent to a whole cow.
Alas...this is the difference in family background...
Huan Xian smiled and didn't say anything more, but he was muttering in his heart, what does Brother Jing Xuan mean by saying "wearing a high hat"?
While Xie Li was sighing in his heart, he heard another crisp voice saying, "How long do you...you are...you are back?"
Looking in the sound, Huan Chan, who had been silent for a long time, was looking at him with a complicated expression, and then asked: "Did you come back after doing something there? You probably won't stay in Jiankang for long..."
"I can't say this for the time being. I don't know if my uncle's residence has changed. After all, I haven't contacted him for a while. If I change my address, I still need to find some time. So, these things are not easy to settle now."
Xie Li answered her time question truthfully. He didn't know how long it would take to see Xie Shizhong, so he couldn't be sure how long he would stay there.
But as soon as these words came out, Huan Chan's expression darkened again, and the joy in the previous conversation was gone at all.
Looking at Huan Chan who wanted to speak but stopped, Xie Li wondered: Why is her hot and refreshing temper gone now? Such a mother-in-law is not her temperament.
Then he asked directly: "Miss Huan, is there any other problem?"
"No...no more."
Huan Chan turned her head and stopped looking at him. However, the loss in her heart still filled her cheeks.
It was obvious that Xie Li's meaning was discussed with Qin beforehand, and it had nothing to do with him "not good to him".
But this did not relieve the loss in her heart at all.
Seeing that Huan Chan didn't say more, Xie Li didn't have more. Although she looked a little abnormal when she asked to leave, Xie Li was not narcissistic so much that she thought these two things were related.
Who is Huan Chan? He is a lady from the Huan family. Uh... Although she has a little temper, her identity is there. How could she be worried because of her own slightest thing?
"If that's the case, I will say goodbye first. I will go back later and give my mother some instructions. It's time to set off tomorrow."
Xie Li said in his mouth, his body had already stood up.
"Well, okay, Jing Xuan, let's go to the riverside together and pick you a boat for transportation. Remember to go and go back early. My little sister and I are still waiting for you to come back and continue the competition."
Huan Xian also stood up, and after saying that, he turned to look at Huan Chan beside him, and then continued, "Go together, I'm idle in the mansion anyway, so I'm just going out to see Jing Xuan for a ride. I don't know when it will be when I see you next time."
"I'm a little tired in the martial arts field just now. Brother, please go and send it. I won't go."
After Huan Chan finished speaking in a low voice, she ignored the two of them. Judging from her appearance, she was obviously trapped in thinking again.
Huan Xian had obviously seen Huan Chan's abnormality. This was the first time he had heard his little sister speak to him in such a light voice. Can you find out if something is wrong? Huan Xian's mind has really grown into the wrong place.
But now it is obvious that it is more important to send Xie Li away. Let’s talk about her affairs when she comes back.
After taking Xie Li out of the mansion, the two walked towards the riverside.
For that ship, Xie Li just chose one casually. As for the hull, there was not much difference between them. Xie Li chose this one because the boatman was older than the ones on other ships.
after all……
The saying "Old Ma knows the way" is still very reasonable.
After returning from the riverside, Huan Xian returned to the guest room just now. Huan Chan was still sitting there in a daze, not even noticed that he had entered the door.
