Tong Jia left the villa at three o'clock in the morning. The reason she left in her pajamas and coat was because she was worried about encountering other bodyguards who were on shift change.

Wearing this, he doesn't look like he's going to run away. It's obvious that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and wanted to go out for a walk.

She had experienced this a few times before, but the bodyguards probably saw that she was alone and Tao Junle was still in the villa, so they didn't follow her.

This time she was lucky and didn't meet anyone who was changing shifts.

So, after leaving the villa area, she went into the RV and changed her clothes.

This time, she simply changed into men's clothes, wrapped her chest, and disguised herself as a eunuch.

Yes, it’s the eunuch.

Although, she is able to give herself a perfect man's makeup.

But we can't just look at the face. Even if a breast wrap can hide the breasts, there is no Adam's apple, so there is really no way to create it.

So she simply put on makeup based on the description of the last eunuch in previous movies and novels.

The reason why she made herself up to look like an old eunuch this time was because people in Shanghai had seen her old-age makeup. Plus, she was with Tao Junle, so if she made herself up to look like an old woman, it would be easy for her to get away.

After putting on her makeup, she rode the lithium battery electric car in the RV to the train station overnight.

Whether it is a train to Jiangcheng or a train to Shancheng, it will not depart until the afternoon.

The longer they stay in Shanghai, the more likely they are to be taken back by Bamei after she wakes up. After all, although her drug works quickly, it has no side effects.

Others may not be able to notice her makeup, but Bamei, who was taught by herself, will definitely notice it.

Tong Jia didn't hesitate and left the train station and went to the dock.

The American Trading Company's "Rocket" sets sail at dawn. As long as you can afford it, you can get the best position even at the last moment before departure.

For Tong Jia, no, for Tong Jia who was dressed up as an old eunuch, it was not strange for him to be so generous.

She used two small yellow croakers to buy the best double room on the "Rocket".

The moment the ship weighed anchor and set sail, Tong Jia's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

After a four-day and three-night voyage, Tong Jia and Tao Junle finally arrived in Jiangcheng on the afternoon of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Originally, the two planned to find a hotel in Jiangcheng to adjust to the new year, and then go to the train station to buy tickets to the mountain city.

Forgive her for thinking as a modern inland person, but when it comes to transportation, other than cars, trains and planes, she rarely thinks of ships.

If she hadn't been forced into a corner in Shanghai, she wouldn't have thought of going to the dock to take a look.

She hadn't thought of this before getting off the boat either.

However, after getting off the boat, she saw many people holding signs on the shore.

Most of the signs are names of people and places.

It is easy to understand that the person holding up the name is here to pick someone up and is afraid of missing the person. He wants the person to see his or her name as soon as he or she gets off the boat so that he or she won't miss the person.

But what are the people holding up the place names for?

Tong Jia grabbed a man holding a sign that said "Mountain City" and asked, "Master, please tell me..."

"Want to go to the mountain city? Walk straight onto the boat from here and buy your ticket once you're on board.

There is now one double room and two triple rooms, and the rest are large beds.

This is the last boat trip before the New Year. If you don't want to go, you can wait until after the 15th." As he spoke, he gave Tong Jia and the others directions.

Tong Jia, who originally wanted to find a place to enter the RV to remove her makeup and then find a hotel to rest, simply followed the path pointed out by the person holding the sign.

Although you will spend more time on the boat than on the train, the private rooms are much more comfortable than the open berths on the train.

Without asking how long it would take to get from Jiangcheng to Shancheng, Tong Jia bought the last double room ticket.

After everything was settled and waiting for the ship to set sail, Tong Jiacai, who was standing on the deck looking at the scenery, learned from the staff that it would take five days to get from Jiangcheng to Shancheng.

In other words, she spent her first year here on the ship to the mountain city.

The first day they boarded the ship was the afternoon of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. That night, some people on the ship were adapting to the environment, while others were still immersed in the sadness of separation. The overall atmosphere was not very good.

On the second day, which was the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the atmosphere on the boat was different.

No matter whether everyone knows each other or not, everyone is happy when they meet each other.

When the cabin boy went to bring them hot water, Tong Jia found out that there was no New Year's Eve this year, and the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month was New Year's Eve.

There is a banquet in the restaurant tonight and all the passengers on the ship are invited to eat dumplings.

Tong Jia, who originally didn't want to join in the fun, couldn't bear to refuse after being invited three times by the waiter that night, so she took Tao Junle to the restaurant.

It is true that the dumplings are free for passengers, but each person is limited to six.

If there is not enough food, you need to buy it yourself.

In addition to dumplings, the restaurant also prepares other meals, but the prices are not cheap.

Although Tong Jia had plenty of food in her RV, she couldn't resist the mountain city-flavored delicacies freshly made by the chefs on the ship. She bought eight dishes, four cold and four hot, plus the twelve free dumplings for her and Tao Junle, and asked the waiter to bring them all back to her cabin.

Since she was dressed as a eunuch this time, many people looked at her as soon as she entered the restaurant.

Tong Jia knew that the cabin attendant repeatedly invited her over. In addition to wanting to sell her food, he also told other staff members that she was a "eunuch."

She understood the waiter's curiosity, but she felt deep down that this was very disrespectful.

So, from that day on, Tong Jia never left the cabin again.

On New Year's Eve, in addition to the food bought from the restaurant, Tong Jia took out two cans of fat house happy water and two cans of beer from the RV.

While she and Tao Junle were eating a fairly sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, they were wondering what the eight beauties of Shanghai were doing now.

She took a sip of beer and asked with a grin, "Lele, do you think Pan Meiying has returned home yet? If she does, will she be angry if she sees that we've already left?"

Tao Junle rolled his eyes and nodded.

Take out the notebook and write: [She will definitely be angry. I always have a feeling that she wants to turn the eighth beauty into the ninth beauty.]

"Really? You feel the same way, right? It seems my feelings are correct.

I clearly know the course of history, so how could I possibly stay and become one of her nine beauties? Wouldn't that be courting death?" Tong Jia said as she opened another can of beer.

While drinking, she told Tao Junle about the historical knowledge she had learned in modern times, and also told her many things that happened when she lived with her grandmother as a child.

By the end of drinking, Tong Jia was a little drunk.

After her parents passed away, many relatives in her family were eyeing the inheritance and insurance money she had received, so she cut into the strait and sold everything. She used the money to buy an RV and travel and paint.

As a result, when we encountered a mudslide, we were brought here by my grandmother and Grandma Rong.

Although she had told Tao Junle some of these things before, she was worried that it would cause Tao Junle to feel sad about his life experience, so she only mentioned a few of them and never went into such detail as this time.

Everything was said and done, and Tong Jia was drunk. As the ship's bell rang, the new year arrived.

When Tao Junle heard the bell ringing, he covered Tong Jia's ears with his hands, fearing that the bell would wake Tong Jia up.

He waited until the bell stopped ringing before he stood up and did several chest expansion exercises, wanting to carry Tong Jia to bed in a princess carry.

Ever since Tong Jia proposed exercising every day when they were in Tianjin, he has been exercising just like Tong Jia did. Even when they were in the mountains, he exercised more every day than Tong Jia.

The purpose is to learn skills as soon as possible so that she can protect Tong Jia and let Tong Jia rely on herself as much as she relies on her.

Compared to the last time when he was completely unable to lift Tong Jia, Tao Junle was able to lift Tong Jia this time.

It’s a pity that although I was able to pick him up, I still failed to hold him up when I tried to help him stand up.

Tao Junle, unwilling to give up, put Tong Jia down and ate a lot of the remaining food on the table, as if the more he ate, the stronger he would be.

But the result was still the same. I could pick up Tong Jia by squatting or kneeling, but I couldn't stand up.

After trying several times, Tao Junle gave up.

They had no choice but to move the bedding from the bed to the floor, and the two of them snuggled on the floor again.

Before he fell asleep, he made his first wish of the New Year in his heart. He must increase his exercise in the future and make himself stronger as soon as possible so that he can hug his sister as soon as possible.

Tong Jia was unaware of Tao Junle's thoughts.

All she knew was that when she woke up at noon the next day, her head was still slightly swollen from the hangover.

Because Tong Jia was still sleeping, the waiter knocked on the door twice this morning to bring hot water, but Tao Junle waved his hand at the window to refuse each time.

Now that Tong Jia was awake, Tao Junle immediately opened the door, asked the waiter to come in to clear the dishes, and brought fresh meals and hot water.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. A red envelope of one cent has been prepared for all the children on the ship, and Tao Junle is no exception.

Seeing Tao Junle grinning foolishly while holding the red envelope, Tong Jia realized that she seemed to have forgotten to prepare New Year's money for Tao Junle.

After the waiter left, Tong Jia entered the RV under the pretext of washing up.

But she searched the entire RV and couldn't find a red envelope to put her New Year's money in.

Before she left, she attended a classmate's wedding and bought a bag of red envelopes with "Happiness and Marriage" written all over them. It was really not suitable for holding New Year's money.

But she couldn't find it, so she had to paint the golden "Happiness for a Hundred Years" red with red paint. After the paint dried, she left the RV with a red envelope containing a small yellow croaker.

Tao Junle originally thought that the red envelope Tong Jia gave him was the same as the one given to him by the waiter on the ship, but when he received the red envelope, the weight made him feel clearly that something was wrong.

When I opened the red envelope, I found a small yellow croaker inside.

Tao Junle looked at Tong Jia with a helpless smile, and went to get a notebook and a pen.

He wrote: "Sister, I am not like you. Carrying so many silver dollars is already heavy enough. If I carry a small yellow croaker, won't it be even heavier?

It’s okay in winter, but in summer, people wear less clothes and the materials are thinner.

It would be fine if we stayed in the Soviet area and didn't go out, but if you accepted the mission and wanted to go out, and I carried so much money on me, wouldn't it be a clear sign to the human traffickers and bandits to come and kidnap me, because I am a fat sheep?

Thank you for the New Year's money, sister. Please keep it for me. I will ask you for it when I need it in the future.

Tong Jia thought about it and realized that this made sense, so she prepared to put the two red envelopes that Tao Junle handed to her into the cabinet in the RV that was specially prepared for Tao Junle.

When he took the red envelope, he saw that Tao Junle's fingertips were all red.

She didn't bother to put the red envelope away, and anxiously pulled Tao Junle's hand to check it.

While checking over and over, he asked with concern: "Did you go out while I was still sleeping? Did someone on the ship bully you? Why didn't you mention your hand being injured?"

Tao Junle looked at his red fingers, looking completely confused.

He was worried that if he went out, someone would disturb Tong Jia's sleep, so he kept staring at the window. Not only did he not go out, but no outsider came in either.

Except that after Tong Jia woke up, he asked the waiter to come in twice and received a red envelope by the way. Yes, the red envelope.

Tao Junle picked up the red envelope that Tong Jia had just put down with his other hand.

I noticed that the red envelope the waiter had given me hadn't faded, it was just a simple red paper wrapper. On the other hand, the red envelope Tong Jia had given me seemed to have a hint of gold.

While Tong Jia went to the RV to find medicine for the wound, he wiped off the paint on the red envelope with his hands.

I was delighted when I saw the golden words "Happiness for a Hundred Years" on the red envelope.

When Tong Jia came out of the RV with the medicine box, she saw Tao Junle holding a red envelope and grinning foolishly.

The words on the red envelope have been revealed, and Tong Jia also realized that the red color on Tao Junle's hand is not blood, but paint.

She hadn't noticed it just now, but she also had some on her hands.

Tong Jia thought that Tao Junle was grinning foolishly at the words on the red envelope, laughing at herself for not understanding.

So, she defended herself by saying, "I know what to write on the red envelope for New Year's money: good health and a bright future. But don't I have any ready-made ones?

Before coming here, I happened to attend a classmate's wedding. There was only a red envelope with these words written on it in the car, nothing else.

I painted it red, who would have thought the color would fade?

Stop laughing at me, give me the red envelope and I'll keep it. Let's go into the RV and wash our hands."

Tao Junle smiled and nodded, but did not move at all.

Tong Jia had no choice but to take both red envelopes from him and tapped Tao Junle on the head with her hand.

The paint hadn't dried yet, and Tao Junle's face was sweating from excitement.

Tong Jia's action just happened to put a red dot between Tao Junle's eyebrows, making him look like the lucky doll in the painting.

She also laughed, pulled Tao Junle to look in the mirror, and said, "This is a good omen. Good luck will come to us on the first day of the new year. In the new year, everything our Lele does will surely go smoothly."

On the boat that day, no matter whether they knew each other or not, the first words they said when they met were to wish each other a Happy New Year.

After that day, peace returned to the ship.

It was not until the afternoon of the fourth day of the first lunar month that the ship docked at the pier of the mountain city and the people on and off the ship became noisy again.
