Chapter 515 Heading to the Prefectural City
The day after the grain was distributed, Xu Yi packed up all the sauces and, along with her family's children, boarded a passenger ship bound for the prefectural city.
These past few days have seemed to have the seasons reversed.
Just a few days ago it was raining and gloomy, and when the sea breeze blew, it felt like it was seeping into my bones, clinging to my clothes.
These past two days, however, the weather has suddenly cleared up, and today the sun is shining brightly, its golden rays splashing across the sea like dust.
The passenger ship was moored at the shore, and the second floor was a bright and spacious area.
The sun shone through the boat planks, making them warm and cozy, so warm that it seemed to evaporate the chill from one's very bones.
Xu Yiyi stood outside the cabin, holding the restless Wu Yuan in her arms.
"Da da..."
The little boy was restless in her arms, stretching out his chubby fingers, trying to catch the light dancing on the sea surface.
Of course, you can't get it; you only grab air.
"clatter……"
Gouyuan shouted in exasperation.
"Stop 'da'ing, call me 'Big Sister'." Xu Yiyi changed her position, holding his armpits with both hands, and made him stand on the railing.
I thought he would be scared, but he got even more excited.
With arms outstretched, they stretch forward repeatedly. When they see a flock of seagulls flying by, they jump and hop excitedly, showing no fear even if they miss a step.
It kept making a "da da da" sound from its mouth.
"You're just lazy!" Xu Yiyi said irritably.
The sea view is indeed beautiful. I usually don't have time to appreciate it when I'm busy, but now that I'm on the boat, I'm captivated.
Without the disturbance of the north wind from the previous days, the sea surface instantly transformed into a giant sheet of silk.
Silky smooth, rising and falling.
The sunlight moved across the surface, shattering into countless shimmering waves, sparkling and shimmering, making one feel somewhat dazed.
"Aren't your eyes bothering you?" Old Lu said lazily as he came out of the cabin with a nonchalant air.
The moment he saw the sun, he immediately squinted.
Xu Yiyi said with some emotion, "It's beautiful."
Old Lu thought she had been possessed and looked her up and down several times.
"Who exactly are you?" the old man hissed.
Xu Yiyi couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "Get lost, who do you think I am? I'm your great-aunt, can't you let me enjoy the scenery in peace?"
Old Lu, instead of being annoyed by this harsh rebuke, actually laughed.
"Hey, that's more like it! You're never usually this... well, poetic."
He had barely finished speaking when he went back into the cabin.
A-Yue then stood next to Xu Yiyi and teased, "Is he asking for a scolding? He can't stand a day without being scolded by you."
Xu Yiyi gave a soft hum.
Watching the seabirds before me, unafraid of the cold, skimming low across the water, their shadows rippled in the waves before soaring into the sky.
"Don't run away!"
Sanchuan's anxious voice rang out crisply.
Looking back, Sihai was running up from the first floor below, dressed in thin clothes.
The little boots stomped on the wooden board, thump, thump, thump.
His cheeks were flushed, and his nose was glistening with sweat. Perhaps it was the sudden warmth that turned him into a carefree, furry little animal.
"This place is small; if you fall into the water, you won't be able to get back up..."
Sanchuan followed behind, holding a book in his hand, frowning like a little adult, trying to grab Sihai's sleeve, but Sihai always slipped away like an eel.
The child wouldn't listen, he just kept giggling, probably thinking that chasing was a very fun game.
Just as I passed by Xu Yiyi, she called out to me.
The little one in her arms also turned around, its bright black eyes following its two older brothers.
She kept giggling.
The sun rose higher, and it became even warmer.
