I fought back after reselling my engagement

Zhen Su returned to the room and half-reclined on the couch to read a book, "Miscellaneous Stories" to kill time. There were two short biographies of characters on the book. She heard footsteps from outside. She was curious when she heard a woman say, "It's so embarrassing! Shameless, making me look bad in front of the noble master. Woohoo, I'm too embarrassed to see anyone."

After the master and servant surnamed Su boarded the ship, the superior rooms were all full. Young Master Su stayed on the viewing platform until the afternoon. The young ladies in the superior rooms went to take a look first, and then the girls in the middle rooms took a peek. No one dared to go over and talk to Young Master Su.

Zhen Su became more and more curious. When he first came, young girls were vying for him, but how come he suddenly turned from a handsome man into a flower on the mountain? They could only look at him from afar and dare not approach him.

Those who had been flirting in front of Master Su earlier, all of them just watched from afar.

Everyone has a love for beauty. Even well-educated girls cannot escape the rules of the world. Some secretly look at others in the dark, while others pretend to enjoy the scenery but are actually looking at handsome men.

Dangdangdang——

After a while of noise, the maid in the superior guest room said loudly: "Dear guests in the superior guest room, it's time for dinner!"

Zhen Su entered Lu Yan's room, set aside the simple table, and waited for a while. Lu Yan brought the food over. His was still a big bowl, while Zhen Su's was more delicate. Tonight there was fish soup, buns, rice and two vegetarian dishes.

Zhen Su scooped a bowl of fish soup from the big bowl, "Brother Lu, one bowl of soup is enough for me. Miss Su gave me some fresh fruits and snacks today. I am not even hungry."

Lu Yan said: "Even if you are not hungry, you have to eat well."

Zhen Su ate a few bites of vegetarian dishes, a bowl of fish soup, and a meat bun. The buns were well made today. They were made with minced pork and beans. The beans were cut into small cubes and tasted very fragrant. However, the meat buns were too big, each almost as big as the bowl in her hand. Each person had two big buns.

Lu Yan finished the fish soup and ate the remaining three big buns and vegetarian dishes.

Zhen Su collected the dishes and brought them back to the housekeeper's large wooden basin. After the dishes were collected, someone would take them to the kitchen on the boat to wash them.

Zhen Su said to the housekeeper, "Mother-in-law, the eleventh and twelfth need to take a bath."

"Girls know the rules on the ship. A large bucket of bath water costs one hundred taels, and a small bucket costs ten taels."

The so-called small bucket is a wooden barrel of hot water, while the big bucket is a bathtub of hot water, and sometimes fresh flower petals are put in the big bucket.

"Two large buckets."

Zhen Su paid some small change to offset the two hundred coin fees for the bath. Everything was expensive on the boat. A bucket of water from someone's house cost ten coin. But this was on the boat, so this was the only money he could pay.

"Mother-in-law, please wash the barrel with boiling water before using it."

"Girl, the bathtubs on our ship are separate for men and women. They are different for women and men."

This is to avoid breaking taboos, and it has always been like this.

It must be washed thoroughly every time it is used to avoid causing dissatisfaction from others. After all, if hot water is sold at a high price of ten cents, then the service must be attentive.

Since boarding the ship, the superior rooms are provided with two pots of tea every day, as well as water for washing faces in the early morning and washing feet at night. Other water needs to be paid for separately.

This was the first time Lu Yan enjoyed a large portion of bath water since he boarded the ship. In the past, a bucket of hot water was provided every day, and he just wiped it off.

The May fragrant soup is extremely clear, with rose petals of various colors floating in it. It is refreshing and slippery in the slight heat, washing away all the dust and dirt of the world. On the clear water surface, green lines spread out like ink, winding like a painting or a poem. Suddenly, the sound of water rises, and Zhen Su breaks out of the water, with her lips slightly open, as beautiful as a cherry.

After a nice bath and washing my hair, I changed into a clean underwear and middle shirt, washed the dirty clothes, wrung out the water, and hung the underwear in the house under the cover of night, while the outer shirt was hung over the observation deck. There were railings around it, and after nightfall many people would hang their clothes there. There was wind on the canal, so the clothes would usually dry in an hour.

When Zhen Su was hanging clothes, Lu Yan was also hanging clothes there. Because the shirts were made of cocoon silk, they dried faster. There were people talking next to him. Lu Yan used special clips on the boat to clip the clothes. It was said that if the clothes were not clipped, they would be blown into the canal by the wind. The clips were provided free of charge on the boat.

Although Zhen Su and Lu Yan were familiar with each other, the relationship between them was more like two parallel lines. She washed her own clothes and Lu Yan also washed his own. She had never asked to wash clothes for Lu Yan, but Lu Yan had said that he would wash them for her.

Zhen Su felt that Lu Yan looked like a military commander from a humble family, but he was actually a trap. If she said, "Brother Lu, let me help you wash your clothes," this guy would definitely take advantage of the situation and really let her wash them.

Lu Yan saw Zhen Su hanging clothes while the boatwoman and the maid went into the women's room and carried the bath soup to the bow and poured it into the canal. The weather had been getting hotter recently, so not only did people order the bath soup at noon, but people also used it in the early morning.

On the boat, the sound of guqin was heard, each sound was like a complaint, warm, lingering, melodious and moving.

Zhen Su listened for a while and found that the sound of the piano came from room number nine. The person playing the piano was none other than Young Master Su. After his coat was dry, Zhen Su put it away, went back to the guest room, asked for a pot of hot water, smoothed out the wrinkles of his coat, and then smoothed out Lu Yan's coat as well.

She knocked on the door and said, "Brother Lu, your robe is dry."

Lu Yan opened the door with his upper body naked. It was not even June yet, but the weather had already turned hot. It was hot on the boat and even hotter on shore. Zhen Su's eyes were clear without a trace of impurities as he handed the outer robe to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan glanced at it and asked, "Have you tried it?"

"It's getting late, Brother Lu, you should go to bed early." Zhen Su left without looking back.

Lu Yan looked confused, looking at the robe in his hand. He was dressed like this, and she had no idea? When he was in the military camp, Wang Laowu said that in his hometown village, as long as he showed his bare chest, the women in the village looked at him like hungry wolves seeing a fat rabbit.

No, that's not right. Zhen Su is not Mrs. Wan, nor is she a country woman. She is just her.

Wan liked his bravery. Even when the truth that the Wan family poisoned Zhen Su was exposed later, Wan, in order to make up for it, promoted two beautiful maids around her as concubines in an attempt to win his heart. She also cried and said that she knew nothing about the affair and begged him not to divorce her for the sake of their children, saying that she could not live without him.

Was he crazy to seduce the girl in this way? But Zhen Su seemed not to notice. The pupils in his eyes seemed to say how despicable he was.

He is in his forties, but she is still as clean and bright as ever. He is really not a human being.

Lu Yan cursed angrily, and the tinkling sound of the piano could still be heard in his ears, which made him very annoyed.

The moon is like a bow, hanging in the night sky. The faint moonlight shines through the window and sprinkles on the windowsill, making the windowsill look like it is coated with silver.

The night is extremely beautiful, filled with romantic reverie. The sounds of the piano seem to be whispering and asking questions. The loneliness cannot be concealed in the sounds of the piano. It is a good time to dream.
