Yu Yuqian is Huang Yudie's only junior sister. In this life, his master had only accepted these three apprentices except for a daughter. All along, the four of them looked like brothers and sisters of their compatriots. Yu Yuqian is the youngest among the senior brothers and sisters, seven or eight years apart from Huang Yudie. Huang Yudie can be said to have watched Yu Yuqian grow up little by little. She can be regarded as her sister or half of her mother.

It is precisely for this reason that Huang Yudie did not force Yu Ren to confess, and she did not want to hurt her junior sister.

After dinner, Huang Yudie suddenly asked Yu Ren to accompany him to see his fellow countrymen.

"This is not great! They are here to do business, and we are still wanted thieves in the court now! What if they are implicated..." Yu Ren said in a low voice.

Yu Yuqian also quickly said, "Yes, senior sister. Is it a bit inappropriate to meet them with our current identity? Is it a bit inappropriate to cause any trouble to them!"

Huang Yudie waved his hand, "Don't worry! Taizhou is our home, and my master has managed it here for many years. We know each other well, both of the Jinyiwei and the open and secret lines under their command. Now Shen Hao is our friend. His fellow countryman is naturally our fellow countryman.

The fellow countrymen is here, and the masters are all there to say hello. I have already asked someone to order a few dishes in Zuixian Curie. We will take them together to see them together. It just so happens that Shen Hao’s fellow countrymen can give him a long face and make a lot of friends!”

After hearing what his senior sister said, Yu Yuqian looked at Yu Ren. "What my senior sister said makes sense. Then let's go there! Taizhou City is also a severely affected area now. It is difficult to buy any delicious food if you have money in the city. Let's go and send them some delicious food, which can be considered as giving you a good face. You can make it look good."

Yu Ren did not object anymore. He knew that Huang Yudie had begun to doubt his identity. But the more he did so, the more he wanted to be calm.

The three of them talked in the room for a while, and a waiter came to report that the wine and food that was settled in Zuixianju had been delivered. They asked if they wanted to bring it in.

"No need. You send two people to carry it for me. We are going to visit friends." Huang Yudie said, giving the waiter a small piece of silver as a reward. The waiter received the silver, thanked him, and turned around.

Huang Yudie said to Yu Ren, "Let's go! Master Shen."

Yu Ren opened the door and took two steps forward, and suddenly stopped again. "I forgot, don't know where they are?"

"I know, I'll lead the way." Huang Yudie said, stepping forward, leading the way for them first.

There are no big rivers in Taizhou City, only a few small rivers connecting the tributaries of the Daqing River. In winter, they often dry up, especially this time. Many rivers that had rarely dried up before also had no flow. If they were not returning the well water, people would have difficulty even getting water. Fortunately, this situation has been improved. The rainfall this spring is quite sufficient. Many small rivers that had no flow last year have started to store water again this year. Although it is impossible to make the crops in the fields grow immediately, at least it has allowed countless farmers to see hope.

Huang Ji'an and his boats drove directly into Taizhou City along a newly stored river.

They had just arrived in Taizhou, just one day earlier than Yu Ren and the others. Huang Ji'an led everyone to find an inn near the river to live. During the day, everyone returned to the boat and prepared to open a stall to do business.

This time, they called "Checha". In fact, they also brought a lot of daily necessities, especially cotton cloth from Jiangnan. So everyone set up stalls in the open space by the river. There were quite a few people coming to see it, but not many people bought it. Almost all of them were watching the fun.

However, Huang Ji'an didn't care whether the business was good or bad. Anyway, their main purpose was not to sell these things in this trip.

Compared with the desolation and hunger of Jinan Prefecture, Taizhou is better.

Through Huang Ji'an's day inquiry, I learned that in fact, it was not that the disaster in Taizhou was less than that in Jinan Prefecture. It was because there was a high abdicated official in Taizhou who was very concerned about people's livelihood. Although he had already been at home, as early as the beginning of the drought, this person submitted to the court many times, hoping to distribute food and provide disaster relief.

Although the court did not give them food in the end, the gentleman did not give up. He gathered important gentry in Taizhou City and arranged for them to use a boat to travel to the Jiangnan area to buy a lot of food, and asked someone to help them open up the water relationship along the way.

Because the money is tight, most of the coarse grains they buy are all kinds of coarse grains that the people in Jiangnan don’t like to eat. But it is this coarse grain that saved the lives of countless people in Taizhou City.

However, due to limited money and food, they could not take into account too much scope. Therefore, most of the refugees from other places did not provide relief. Because of this, almost no refugees from other places came to the city, but went directly to several relief areas outside the city.

Huang Ji'an found out all this clearly and was about to leave the city and go to see several relief areas outside the city. He saw a group of people walking towards them.

The leaders were the two women of the fragrant smelling scholars they met in a small town outside Jinan City. And the one who followed them was Yu Ren.

Huang Ji'an was also surprised to see them suddenly. But he deliberately pretended not to see them and continued to sell his business.

"Third brother, you are indeed here." Yu Ren took two steps and came to Huang Ji'an. "Senior Sister Huang said just now that you have arrived in Taizhou, I don't believe it yet! I didn't expect it was you. It's great."

Huang Ji'an raised his head and pretended to be unexpected, "Ah! It's Ninth Brother! Ninth Brother, where have you been going these days, why don't you say hello to us? We are still worried about you!"

The two started to have a show in half truth. They made an appointment in advance, but there was no flaw.

"I encountered something that day and was delayed. When I came back, your boat had already left, so I had to walk with two girls." Yu Ren said. "I'll introduce it to my third brother. These are two new friends I met. Miss Huang and Miss Yu. They are both from Ben Taizhou. We are here to do business, and with their care, it will be much more convenient in the future."

As he said that, Yu Ren introduced Huang Ji'an.

Yu Yuqian also gave Huang Ji'an a serious gift, "Hello, Brother Third!"

But Huang Yudie just bowed to Huang Ji'an.

Huang Ji'an didn't care and said to the three, "Look, I'm too messy here. Why don't we go back to the inn and talk again!"

Yu Ren nodded and was about to get up with Huang Ji'an. Huang Yudie suddenly stopped them.

"Why go to the boat to talk! We also brought some wine and food, and set up a seat on the boat. It can be regarded as the meaning of our sisters who have a little bit of landlord friendship."

Huang Ji'an glanced at Yu Ren and saw that he had no hint, so he said, "That's fine. Drinking on the boat has added more elegance. Then we can learn from others' artwork."

Everyone then boarded the boat with Huang Ji'an. Huang Yudie followed Huang Ji'an, and her eyes kept scanning the boat, as if looking for something.

Huang Ji'an ordered people to move a low table out of the cabin and then spread a few more wool pads.

"The conditions on the boat are simple, so don't laugh at two girls."

Yu Yuqian helped to prepare the table shop, and while bringing the wine and food out of the waiter in the inn. "The third brother is here to see you. We and Shen Hao are both good friends, so you can just treat us like him. You don't have to be polite!"

Yu Yuqian was posing with wine and food while chatting with Huang Ru'an about some of her experiences along the way. However, Huang Yudie had been wandering around since she got on the boat.

Although she knew that she was checking herself, Yu Ren was still very calm because he knew that there was nothing specifically suspicious about this boat except for some daily necessities. Even food, they didn't bring too much.

Yu Yuqian arranged the wine and dishes and said to Huang Yudie, "Senior Sister. We have already prepared it. Come here!"

Yu Ren was quietly sitting beside Huang Ji'an, but in fact his eyes never left Huang Yudie. Seeing that she had never gained anything, Yu Ren was relieved.

Huang Yudie was about to come over, but suddenly, she seemed to see something. She quickly took two steps and touched a piece of felt cloth with her hands. Then, a strange smile appeared on her face.
