A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

There are already more than a dozen dragon boats parked on the wide river.

There is a big drum in front of each dragon boat. Beside the drum is a leader sitting steadily with his back facing the direction of the dragon boat, holding two sticks in his hands.

There were about a dozen other men on the boat, sitting in neat rows, each holding an oar tightly and ready to go.

The crowd watching on the shore was chattering.

"It's really lively! Fortunately, I got up at the beginning of Yinshi and arrived here at the beginning of Mao, occupying an excellent terrain." The man said proudly.

"Your brother wakes up earlier than chicken!"

"If you ask me, I still envy the people who sit in Shenji's big boat. From the second floor, it must be clear. We can chat and have tea without having to squeeze everyone to death like us."

"Brother, aren't you talking nonsense! Who doesn't want to take a big ship? Do you know how much a seat on the ship costs today?! Don't even want to board the ship without five taels of silver!"

Chen Changsheng looked up and noticed that in addition to the dragon boat racing boats parked at the pier, there was also a two-story passenger ship parked. The windows on the second floor were crowded with heads.

People on the boat were eating tea and eating melon seeds, chatting from time to time and guessing which dragon boat would win the championship today. The excitement under the boat was also visible, so it was very leisurely.

The best viewing area on the second floor is where the Shen family, Bai Xiao and Qin Tingyu from Cao Yun are sitting.

The annual dragon boat competition is organized by the Shen family, who is responsible for providing the venue and part of the prize money.

If someone is willing to pay to organize such a lively event, the government is naturally eager to do so, and actively helps mobilize other businesses in the county to participate. The prize money and prize materials for the dragon boat race are raised by each business bank.

Each investing firm can choose a participating dragon boat and put its firm's logo on the boat, which is equivalent to an advertising sponsor.

Shen Jianing was lying on the second floor window looking down, saying boringly, "Dad, dad, why hasn't the dragon boat race started yet? My daughter is so bored!"

Shen Bohu looked at his little daughter's appearance and smiled fondly, "It's not yet time. If Ning Ning is bored, come over and try the pastries. Manager Wu specially asked the kitchen to make some of your favorite pastries and send them over."

"Thank you, Uncle Wu!" Shen Jianing smiled at Manager Wu on the side and reached out to give him a twist.

"Use chopsticks!" Shen Bohu patted his daughter's hand gently.

Shen Jianing pouted her little mouth and said, "Father can take care of me at home, but he will continue to take care of me outside. Okay, I'll use chopsticks." After saying that, he had to pick up the chopsticks honestly and pick up a piece of pastry to send. When I put it in my mouth, my eyes suddenly lit up, "It's delicious!"

Regardless of Shen Jianing's complaints, Shen Bohu still looked at his daughter with a smile and said, "I don't know who you are following your temper. I will find you an in-law to marry tomorrow and let them take good care of you." Again. He turned to Bai Xiao and his wife and smiled bitterly, "My little girl is naughty and made Magistrate Bai and Mrs. Bai laugh."

Qin Tingyu smiled and spoke first, "Jia Ning's personality is lively, informal, and very cute. I like her very much! If she wasn't too young, I would have considered her my sister."

Shen Jianing was unhappy when others said she was young, "Sister Tingyu, I'm fourteen and I'm not young anymore. From now on, you can call me Ningning. I like Sister Tingyu too."

Shen Bohu picked up a cup of tea and offered it to Bai Xiao, who was opposite him. "Mr. Bai is new to Baishui County. When he is busy with official duties, he is willing to reward Bo Noodles for hosting the dragon boat race. I, Shen Bohu, will offer tea to you today instead of wine."

Bai Xiao also raised his tea cup and replied calmly, "Mr. Shen, you are polite. Today is a day off for all government offices and schools. I have just arrived in the county. I am not very busy with official work, so I was invited by Master Shen to watch the dragon boat race. I am Bai Xiao, too. It was my first time to watch a dragon boat race, and I didn’t expect the scene to be so lively.”

Shen Bohu asked doubtfully, "Oh, isn't there a dragon boat race in Jiangzhou Prefecture?"

It's unlikely. Jiangzhou Prefecture is a prosperous and prosperous place. It's impossible not to hold a dragon boat race during the Dragon Boat Festival. Shen Bohu has been to Jiangzhou Prefecture several times, so he understands this.

Qin Tingyu smiled and explained first, "He is busy reading and studying every day, and he doesn't like to go out to play during holidays. If I hadn't asked him to come out today, he would definitely continue to stay in the county government office."

Shen Bohu nodded.

The men were talking, the women were eating cakes, and looking at the lively crowd below, the atmosphere became lively.

Seeing that it was almost time, Manager Wu on the side stepped forward and reminded, "Master, it's almost time, let's go down."

Shen Bohu stood up and greeted with a smile, "Sir Bai, I want to go down and say a few opening remarks. How about you come with me? After I finish hosting, I will ask you to come on stage to say a few words."

Bai Xiao nodded and stood up.

"Dad, I want to go too!" Shen Jianing put a pastry in her hand and hurriedly stood up.

Although she could see clearly from the second floor, it was not as lively as the crowd on the shore, and she wanted to rush there to join in the fun.

"There are so many people outside. It's not appropriate for a girl like you to be running around outside. Besides, the water in the river is fast and it's not safe. You'd better eat some cakes here and watch the performance." Shen Bohu was worried.

"I'm old enough to be careful. They're calling you over there. Dad, please go quickly. Don't miss the time." Shen Jianing urged.

Shen Bohu shook his head and said a few words to Manager Wu to take good care of the young lady and don't let her run around, then he and Bai Xiao got off the boat and walked up the special passage to the platform of the pier.

"Sister Tingyu, let's go down and take a look too!"

As soon as Shen Bohu and Bai Xiao left, Shen Jianing urged Qin Tingyu on the back.

"Miss, there is a huge crowd on the shore. If you and Mrs. Bai go out like this, what should you do if you are crowded by others? You'd better watch it from here. I'll ask my servants to prepare Miss's favorite dishes." Wu The steward persuaded me earnestly.

The master only has a daughter, and the baby is very important. He usually would not say a harsh word to this young lady, she is extremely pampered.

Shen Jianing tilted his head and thought for a while, blinked slyly, and said to Manager Wu, "Uncle Wu, you're right, it's really not appropriate for us to go out like this."

Manager Wu thought that his young lady was finally obedient, and just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Shen Jianing continue to say, "Hurry and prepare two sets of men's clothes for me. Mr. Qin and I are going to go shopping. Go, go, go."

"Ah..." Manager Wu had a bitter look on his face, not knowing what the young lady was going to cause a fuss about.

"Uncle Wu, go quickly."

Manager Wu can only handle things honestly.

Shen Jianing and Qin Tingyu each put on men's clothes, looked at each other, and suddenly covered their mouths and giggled, "Mr. Qin/Mr. Shen, let's go!"

After saying that, the two got off the boat and walked towards the river. Manager Wu looked at the two delicate young men in front of him, shook his head helplessly and followed closely.
