Wanghai County, ferry terminal.

Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and it is also the day when Dazhi and Xiao Qiao left Changping Village and returned to Yangzhou.

On the pier in the east of Wanghai County, Yang Ruoqing, Daan, Xiaoan and a group of others were seeing Dazhi and the others off.

Yang Ruoqing held Dazhi's hand tightly and looked at her son again and again. Thousands of words were stuck in her throat. At this moment of farewell, she suddenly didn't know where to start or which sentence to start.

Even though a lot was said last night.

In the end, all the words turned into just one reminder: "Be good on the road, take good care of yourself, and take good care of Xiao Qiao."

"When I get to Yangzhou, I will send a letter to my mother as soon as possible to say that I am safe!"

Dazhi's eyes were slightly red, and he felt a variety of emotions in his heart.

He looked at the young woman in front of him, whose face was a little pale as she stood in the cold morning wind, with admiration and reluctance in her eyes.

But he had to leave, because for now, his foundation and connections are all in Yangzhou.

Moreover, as a man, you must be responsible. How can you stay here because you are greedy for this kind of warmth and comfort?

He also thought that one day, when people mentioned Yang Ruoqing, they would not say that he was her son.

Rather, she is his mother, and he wants to earn honor for his mother.

He doesn't want to lose to his father, nor does he want to lose to his younger brother Chen'er.

Even though they are as difficult to climb as a mountain, he cannot be deterred. It is the integrity and pride of the Luo family to move forward all the way.

"Mom, don't worry. I'll tell you that I'm safe when I arrive. But you should also take care of yourself and don't be too tired!" Dazhi also repeatedly warned Yang Ruoqing.

Seeing the two women giving them endless instructions, Daan just stayed with them patiently and watched with a smile.

Xiao An scratched his head and said, "What am I talking about? Zhi'er, you're not a big girl. Stop nagging and hurry up and get on the boat!"

Dazhi blushed slightly, "Yes, little uncle."

Da'an raised his hand and patted Dazhi on the shoulder: "After returning to Yangzhou, study hard. If you have any confusion about your studies, tell me if you have any confusion about your studies, write a letter to the capital, or tell me any classics and materials you need!"

Dazhi looked grateful, clasped his hands and bowed to Daan, "Thank you, uncle!"

Da'an nodded: "Okay!"

Yang Ruoqing left Da'an and Xiao'an talking to Dazhi, then turned around and went to the group of women next to her.

At this time, Xiaohua and Luo Baobao were holding Xiao Qiao on the left and right, and the three of them were talking quietly.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing coming, Xiaohua and Luo Baobao both stopped talking. Luo Baobao let go of Xiao Qiao's hand and jumped towards Dazhi.

She was going to say goodbye to her brother and left her sister-in-law to her mother.

Yang Ruoqing gently held Xiao Qiao's shoulders, looked her up and down, and then raised her hand to tighten the fur collar of Xiao Qiao's cloak around her neck.

The gentle eyes and gentle movements made Xiao Qiao feel the warmth of a mother.

"Xiao Qiao, after you go back, if you have any issues, don't dwell on it alone. Please discuss and communicate with Dazhi more often."

"Take good care of your body and eat more. Auntie is looking forward to seeing you next time and gaining some weight."

Xiao Qiao smiled sheepishly and nodded obediently, "Auntie, you should also take care of yourself."

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Give me my regards to your parents,"

Xiao Qiao nodded again.

Yang Ruoqing took Xiao Qiao's hand again and gave some instructions on what to pay attention to on the waterway.

Then, Xiao An came over.

"Sister, it's almost time, let them get on the boat, don't delay."

Yang Ruoqing nodded, saying goodbye to you after thousands of miles. No matter how much you are reluctant to leave, you will finally have to say goodbye.

Life is like parting, meeting again, parting again, meeting again...

"Has everything been arranged on the ship?" Yang Ruoqing asked Xiao An again.

Xiao An nodded: "Everything has been arranged. It's all our own."

Yang Ruoqing can rest assured that this time Dazhi and Xiao Qiao return to Yangzhou, Yang Ruoqing has arranged in advance a three-story ship to take them back to Yangzhou.

The ship is equipped with everything from the helmsman to the guards, from the maids to the cooks, the cooks, those who buy supplies along the way, and even the doctors.

Yang Ruoqing even borrowed several escorts from the Qing'an County Escort Bureau to disguise themselves as bodyguards to protect Da Zhi and Xiao Qiao along the way.

And the people on this boat, even the cooks, are all very good at water.

The ship is also equipped with several smaller lifeboat-type boats.

Therefore, unless encountering a tsunami, the safety factor of this ship is still very resistant.

Theoretically speaking, Yang Ruoqing should not be worried at all.

But in fact, she felt that she had inherited Sun's temperament in this aspect.

I can't help but think about the bad things.

Perhaps this is the heart of a mother, which is always out of control.

Finally, the three-story ship began to leave the shore. Da Zhi and Xiao Qiao stood side by side at the mast on the second floor and waved goodbye to the shore.

Finally, the big ship moved away from the sight, gradually condensed into a small black dot, and finally disappeared completely at the junction of water and sky...

Yang Ruoqing turned sideways, pretending to stroke her hair, and quietly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes.

"Mom, don't be disappointed. My two brothers are not at home, but you still have this caring little cotton-padded jacket like me." Luo Baobao put his arm around Yang Ruoqing's shoulders and shook it hard.

"Besides, now we have two younger brothers. When you miss your older brothers, think more about your two younger brothers. This way you won't have time to feel lost!" Baby Luo added.

Yang Ruoqing looked at her with a smile: "Mom is asking you, your father is not at home. Do you want to see your mother so that you don't need to miss your father?"

Luo Baobao was stunned.

The big eyes rolled around.

Yang Ruoqing smiled because this question stopped the girl.

"Mom, this is different. You are you and my father is my father. It feels different and cannot be replaced," she said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, "So, elder brother and younger brother cannot be replaced. You are all my children. If any one of you is missing, I will miss you."

Baby Luo understands.

She said nothing, hugged Yang Ruoqing's arm, rested her head on Yang Ruoqing's shoulder, and looked at the river in the distance together...

Yang Ruoqing gently stroked Baby Luo's hair, looking far into the distance with complicated eyes.

On the ship that was sailing away, Dazhi kept standing by the mast, looking in the direction of Wanghai County Pier, unable to regain his consciousness for a long time.

Even though the pier was already out of sight, the gentle breeze on the river brought with it a chill, but he remained unmoved.

Xiao Qiao knew how he was feeling at the moment, so he said nothing and stood quietly beside him, watching with him in silence.

After a long time, Dazhi let out a sigh.

"Xiao Qiao, it's cold here, you should go back to the house first."

"No, I'm with you, I'm not cold." Xiao Qiao said.
