When Yan Yuqing was rescued by the boatman, her whole body was soaked, and the cold river water made her tremble.

At this time, Yan Yuqing was delicate and helpless, pitiful, and her wet clothes were pressed against her body, outlining her delicate curves.

After the boat docked, Yan Yuqing saw Xuanyuan Jue with a black face and retreated with the gentry and officials beside him.

Jiang Nushi took the pale robe with a pale golden lotus pattern for Yan Yuqing, and then went back to the house.

A maid prepared ginger soup for her to bathe.

Tonight, the governor of Xiangyang held a welcome banquet for Xuanyuan Jue, and all the famous people here were invited to attend.

While Jiang Nushi was squeezing Yan Yuqing's black hair, he muttered, "Let's just quit for the welcoming banquet tonight. Cover with a quilt and cover it, and the cold will be cured tomorrow morning."

Yan Yuqing was not interested in these banquets and social events. She was all people she didn't know, so she agreed happily.

Qingzhu came in with a curtain and reported, "Yan Jingxing, the head of Xiangyang, is here to pay homage to the girl."

Yan Yuqing hurriedly ordered someone to invite him in.

She had heard from Yan Dian that this person was adopted by a child from a nephew. She was keen on numbers and had a strong memory, and was highly valued by the old men in the clan. Now Xiangyang helps to manage Yan's freight, minerals and salt industries.

Don't be humble.

This time, he and Yan Yuqing will work together to manage the turquoise mine.

Yan Yuqing was wearing a homely white tulle-haired skirt, and sat casually beside the table wearing wooden clogs.

A man with a beautiful face and a flowing long gown walked in. He was about twenty-seven or eight years old, and his attitude was unrestrained and clean, without any touch of the shrewdness of a businessman.

He gives people a gentle and comfortable feeling, and the faint fragrance of rain and dew on his body surrounds Yan Yuqing's senses.

After meeting each other, Yan Jingxing told her about the general situation of the turquoise mine.

This ore vein was found on the mountain of Wu Family in Xiangyang. The Wu Family agreed to transfer the ore vein to Yan Family for the specific price. Yan Jingxing wanted to wait until Yan Yuqing saw the ore vein and the turquoise that came out inside.

Yan Yuqing is familiar with the quality and market price of gems, so the patriarch agreed that she traveled thousands of miles to Xiangyang.

After the two agreed, they set the day to go to the mine three days later.

Yan Jingxing went to the front hall to attend Xuanyuan Jue's welcome banquet.

Jiang Nushi brought a bowl of cold-proof medicine, looked at Yan Yuqing after drinking it, and said, "The person who went to inquire just replied that the Wu family in Xiangyang has been doing business for generations and is engaged in salt mine business. He has had many years of business dealings with our Yan family, and our salt mine in Xiangyang is still working with his family."

Yan Yuqing picked up a candied fruit and put it in her mouth, and said in a hurry: "Then why did they give us the turquoise ore?"

Jiang Nushi looked at the maid who came to pack up the dishes and then said after leaving: "In addition to working in salt mines, their family also operates some gambling houses and money houses, which are very powerful in Xiangyang. However, they do not understand gems and have never dabbled in this in the family. It is estimated that Yan Jingxing gave him very generous conditions, so they are willing to agree."

Yan Yuqing nodded and said, "It is like a mountain to go across. There are risks in doing an industry that you don't understand. It is indeed easier to get the benefits directly."

"I heard that Wu Qingzhi, the eldest grandson of the Wu family, got married next month and married the Yang girl from the governor's brother-in-law's family. Should we prepare a gift in advance and send it to you then?"

Jiang Nushi is always so careful and considerate, and Yan Yuqing lets her make arrangements by herself.

There was nothing wrong now. Yan Yuqing understood the hardships of their bumpy journey and sent them back to rest early, leaving only a maid on duty to guard the corridor.

The governor's mansion is really big, and the sound of silk and bamboo in the front hall is vaguely heard when Yan Yuqing comes. Occasionally, the sound of ducks rattles makes Yan Yuqing think of the clear river water.

Yan Yuqing ordered the maid to light a small lantern and walked out of the house with her in hand.

She was very glad that she didn't bring many maids when she came. This should have been newly found in Xiangyang. If it were the person trained by Jiang Nushi, she might not be able to get out now.

The starry sky at night put a mysterious veil on the river cage, and the starlight reflected in the water, sparkling.

Koi are swimming quietly in the water.

Yan Yuqing held a lantern in her hand and walked along the shore. She saw someone fishing by the lake.

Can you see it when fishing at night? Yan Yuqing walked forward curiously.

I saw the man sitting barefoot on the shore, his long gown hanging on the ground casually, his long hair was not tied, and he drifted with the wind.

A pair of wooden clogs were placed not far away, and there was an exquisite wine glass beside them.

When the man saw Yan Yuqing walking in, he didn't say hello or move, and was still fishing quietly as if no one was around.

Seeing that the man was not malicious, Yan Yuqing sat down quietly by the side and enjoyed the surrounding scenery. Her curiosity made her want to see if the man next to her could catch fish at night.

After a long time, the man still didn't move. Just when Yan Yuqing thought he was asleep, he got up.

His tall body blocked the already faint moonlight, and Yan Yuqing began to hurry to find the small lantern she brought out.

I don't know when I actually destroyed myself.

Maybe the man saw that Yan Yuqing was making such a big noise, maybe he thought Yan Yuqing was too anxious, so he turned his head and looked at her for the first time, saying, "Close your eyes and open it again in a while, and you will be able to adapt to the darkness."

His quiet and distant eyes made Yan Yuqing do it like a devil.

The moment she opened her eyes again, her eyes were filled with the eyes that had just happened.

Yan Yuqing exclaimed in fear and fell to the ground. The man opposite him laughed wildly when he saw this.

From the initial endurance to the hilarious laughter, to the end, even my body trembled violently.

Yan Yuqing stood up in anger and wanted to hit him. Who knew that the man had avoided him cleverly. He reached out and stopped her in his arms, and jokingly said in her ear: "I have seen you, the girl who fell into the river in the afternoon."

Yan Yuqing couldn't move in his arms, so she just slapped him with her eyes, struggling to escape from this huge confinement.

"Don't move" the man suddenly had an indeterrent voice.

Yan Yuqing was so shocked that she was indeed stunned.

The man raised his mouth with satisfaction, took off Yan Yuqing's Duobao bracelet, and then walked Yan Yuqing back and forth several times around him, before slowly saying: "Miss Yan, it's true that he is a wonderful person."

Yan Yuqing felt uncomfortable all over when he saw it, remembering the trick that the family had taught her. After counting one, two or three in his heart, he took advantage of the man's carelessness to raise his elbow and hit his chest, bent down to escape from under his arm.

Others covered their chests without getting angry. They looked at her with a smile and said, "You can't escape."
