Loyang Jin

Chapter 45 Targeting 2

Who is watching her?

Ling Jingshu seemed to feel something and looked back doubtfully.

The man with triangular eyes was very alert and turned around almost as soon as Ling Jingshu turned her head.

Ling Jingshu's eyes quickly glanced around, and everywhere she looked, there were the common coolies and traders on the dock, as well as the boat passengers coming and going, nothing out of the ordinary.

The strange discomfort of being stared at has disappeared.

"Ah Shu, what's wrong?" Ling Xiao noticed Ling Jingshu's tenseness and strangeness.

Ling Jingshu calmly smiled and said: "It's nothing, someone seemed to be staring at our group just now. Maybe I was too suspicious."

Ling Jingyan interrupted with a smile: "It's you who are suspicious. It's broad daylight, we're on an official ship, and we have so many servants with us. What else can those blind gangsters dare to do?"

Mrs. Jiang also smiled and said: "My cousin Shu is so beautiful. Even wearing a curtain hat, you can tell that she is a stunning beauty. People on the dock will inevitably take a few more glances when they see her."

Being teased like this by Jiang, Ling Jingshu couldn't express any doubts in her heart. She smiled and laughed at herself: "It seems that I am too nervous. I always feel that someone is watching us."

Ling Ji laughed dumbly: "Even those young people with bad intentions will definitely not dare to have the idea of ​​​​official ships. You can rest assured."

The convenient and developed river transportation also created a group of water bandits. These gangsters not only have boats, but they are also agile and well versed in water. Specially do it in a secluded place on the river in the middle of the night.

However, no matter how courageous the water bandits are, they will have to retreat three points and take a detour when they see an official ship.

Thieves don't fight with officials! There is no reason why gangsters would dare to rob an official ship.

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled and said nothing more.

Everyone returned to the ship and went into their cabins to rest.

The cooks who were doing the shopping soon came back. The cooks bought fresh ingredients and made the lunch meal especially delicious. Especially the steamed white fish, which is even more delicious.

Ling Xiao likes to eat fish the most, and this steamed white fish was very suitable to his appetite, and he almost ate most of it by himself.

Ling Jingshu carefully removed the fish bones for Ling Xiao and put the tender and delicious fish meat into Ling Xiao's bowl.

Mrs. Sun watched Ling Jingshu's every move, and became even more fond of this gentle and silent niece. The word "care" is not just a word. Ling Jingshu's care, love and meticulous concern for Ling Xiao can be seen by everyone.

"Ah Shu, stop picking fish bones for me all the time." Ling Xiao whispered, "I'm almost full, and you're still hungry!"

Ling Jingshu responded perfunctorily, but her men's movements did not stop at all.

When others see her taking care of Ling Xiao, they will definitely praise her for her gentleness and carefulness as a sister. But to her, this is the most natural thing. She also never regarded taking care of Ling Xiao as a burden.

It is precisely because of Ling Xiao that she becomes stronger.

...

After lunch, everyone sat together and chatted as usual.

Ling Jingyan smiled flatteringly and said: "Mom, I was wandering around the dock today and saw a lot of good rouge in a rouge shop, so I bought some specially for you!"

There was clearly a smile in Mrs. Sun's eyes, but she said teasingly: "I thought you bought too much, so I gave some to me, so that I could be coaxed into taking advantage of you and make up for all the money you spent." let's go!"

When Ling Jingyan's intentions were revealed, she was not ashamed and admitted frankly with a smile: "My mother is the one who gave birth to me, and my mother is the one who knows me. So, will the money spent today be replenished for me or not?"

Everyone was amused.

Sun Shi smiled and said: "That's all, if you shamelessly ask for it, why should I not agree?"

The banter was laced with intimacy.

Ling Jingshu listened with a smile, but felt a little sad in her heart.

Only a girl who has her own mother's love and pampering has the right to be arrogant and willful. She lost her biological mother a long time ago, and her biological father only cared about eating, drinking, having fun and having sex, and was indifferent to her. The grandmother who seemed to love her was also kind-hearted and cold-hearted...

Compared to the pampered Ling Jingyan, she was far behind.

Fortunately, there is A Xiao who depends on her for life.

Ling Ji coughed deliberately: "Mom, you can't favor one over another. My sister is not the only one who bought rouge pollen today." Jiang's daughter-in-law is thin-skinned, and his son is not embarrassed to speak.

Besides, Mrs. Jiang has suffered a lot of grievances in front of her mother-in-law these days. Ling Ji opened his mouth at this time, not without the intention of interceding for Jiang.

How could Sun not see Ling Ji's thoughts? He cursed a few words, half truthfully and half falsely: "When you marry a wife, you forget your mother. This sentence is absolutely true. I only know that I feel sorry for my wife. I really gave birth to you in vain."

Ling Ji didn't refute, just smiled and let Sun scold him.

Jiang's heart felt warm, and she looked at her husband lovingly.

When she had not yet left the court, she had an outstanding family background, talent and beauty, and there were many people who came to propose marriage. The Ling family is just one of them. She hid behind the screen and fell in love with Ling Ji at a glance.

Facts have proved that she did not marry the wrong person.

After they got married, Ling Ji always treated her tenderly and considerately. My parents-in-law are also quite generous. Although she didn't have the luxury of marrying into a high-ranking noble family, her life was comfortable and smooth.

It would be better if I could conceive an heir earlier!

Ling Jingshu, who had been smiling and silent, sighed with envy: "Cousin Yan and cousin sister-in-law can report public accounts, which is really enviable."

Mrs. Sun immediately smiled and said, "That's all. How much money you and A Xiao spent on the things you bought will be put on my account."

Ling Jingshu said, "Why is this so embarrassing", but she smiled happily.

As a result, Mrs. Sun, who donated generously, became even happier.

In fact, the money spent is nothing. The juniors were acting like this just to make her happy. This intention is what makes Sun the most happy.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Ling Jingyan told Sun about the scene on the pier as an interesting anecdote: "...At that time, I didn't know who Meng Lang's disciple was, and he kept staring at cousin Shu. Cousin Shu was so scared that she almost couldn't stand it. I dared to move. I thought I was being targeted by some gangster!"

Mrs. Sun laughed: "In broad daylight, with the world clear, which thief would dare to plan an official ship. Sister Shu, there is no need to scare yourself."

Ling Jingshu, who was teased again, smiled helplessly: "Cousin Yan, are you going to make fun of me all the way to the capital?"

Ling Jingyan was not an unreasonable person. After hearing this, she raised her right fist seriously and swore: "From now on, I will only mention it once a day to make everyone laugh, and I will never mention it a second time."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone burst into laughter.

Amid everyone's chatter and laughter, the official ship left the dock and moved forward smoothly.

There were frequent ships on the river, official ships, civilian ships, and merchant ships coming and going. No one noticed that shortly after the official ship left, three civilian ships followed it.
