The Crown Princess is busy fishing

Shang Suniang enthusiastically pulled Xie Jingwan along to go choose furniture.

Xie Jingwan quickly declined, saying, "Cousin, this is too precious."

Shang Su Niang pretended to be angry and said, "Why are you being so formal between us sisters? We've been apart for so long, what's a few sets of furniture from my cousin?"

Su Shenghe also said from the side, "Cousin Jingwan, please don't refuse. Let Madam do her best."

"Moreover, Yuge saved Lin'er. Last time I tried to give her a thank-you gift, but she refused to accept it. I can't refuse her again this time."

Seeing their insistence, Xie Jingwan could no longer refuse.

She could only say gratefully, "Cousin and brother-in-law, we will always remember your kindness."

"If there is any need for us in the future, we will do our best."

Shang Suniang smiled and nodded, "That's right. Come on, let's go pick out some furniture."

"When you move to your new house, be sure to invite us. I'll also come and see how you're doing."

"Of course, I will definitely let you know in advance."

The group then went to the store to select furniture, while the mother and daughter only planned to choose a few practical pieces to take home.

As a result, Shang Su Niang insisted on dragging her to select all the furniture they needed.

From the exquisitely carved king-size bed to the simple and elegant wardrobe, from the spacious and comfortable tables and chairs to the delicate and exquisite ornaments.

Shang Su Niang seemed to want to move the entire woodworking shop to their new home.

Xie Jingwan looked at the mountain of furniture, feeling both moved and uneasy.

"Cousin, this is far too much of a waste. We are unworthy of it."

Shang Suniang waved her hand dismissively.

"Don't talk nonsense. We're family, what's a little bit of this? Why aren't you as straightforward as before?"

"How can these be the same?" Xie Jingwan said somewhat anxiously.

"We were carefree when we were young, but now we have experienced many ups and downs. This bond is too heavy for us to repay."

Shang Su Niang frowned slightly, "What are you saying about not paying it back? If you keep acting like this, you're being too formal!"

Seeing the two of them at a stalemate, Lin Yuge gently tugged at her mother's sleeve.

"Mother, we'll accept Aunt's kind offer for now. We'll repay her when we have the chance."

Xie Jingwan sighed softly and nodded, "Cousin, then I won't refuse."

Shang Suniang then smiled, "That's more like it. We'll definitely have a big celebration when you move into your new home."

Seeing that Xie Jingwan no longer refused.

Su Shenghe hurriedly instructed his servants to arrange for the furniture to be delivered to Longtang Village as soon as possible.

The servants behind him nodded repeatedly, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The group chatted about everyday things for a while longer.

As dusk approached, the mother and daughter, accompanied by their family, prepared to sail away.

As she was leaving, Lin'er cried and clung to Lin Yuge's hand, refusing to let her go.

Shang Suniang said to him, "Lin'er, be good. Let go of your sister for now. In a few days, Mom will take you to play with your sister Yuge, okay?"

He then let go.

Back home, Xie Jingwan specifically sought out someone to choose an auspicious date.

We've decided to move into our new home on the 21st of the twelfth lunar month.

On the afternoon of the 18th, Lin Yuge drove home with bedding, bowls, chopsticks, and other household items that he had bought for his family.

As the boat entered the bay, it spotted a vessel that looked completely different from ordinary fishing boats moored on the shore.

She couldn't help but glance at the ship, looking at the dark, gaping windows on both sides of the hull.

I guessed that this must be a warship.

The ship was moored at the shore, where a large crowd had gathered.

Lin Yuge walked over and looked at Lin Fanghai, who was surrounded by the crowd.

With a hint of surprise, he exclaimed, "Dad, you're back!"

Upon hearing her voice, Lin Fanghai immediately stepped out from the crowd.

"My daughter is here, so I'll head back now. I'll treat everyone properly in a few days."

After he finished speaking, he didn't forget to call out to the people behind him.

"Brother Mo Nan, didn't you want to talk to Yu Ge? Come on, let's go to his house."

Mo Nan and the others were very perceptive and helped Lin Yuge carry her things.

The group walked towards the two-story building.

"Father, why are you back? Did you finish what you were doing?"

Lin Fanghai nodded and explained with a smile, "This batch of crossbows has been completed."

"Moreover, the New Year is just around the corner, and the Crown Prince, being considerate of everyone, has allowed those with families to go home first."

Mo Nan heard him mention his master.

He quickly added, "My young master is indeed kind-hearted and considerate, and he cares deeply for his subordinates."

"It is a blessing for Lord Lin to be able to work under the Crown Prince."

Lin Fanghai nodded with a smile, his eyes full of recognition and respect for Xiao Yunqing.

When the group arrived at the new house, Lin Qingzhou was using the bamboo she had cut to build a fence around it.

Lin Fanghai looked at the two-story building in front of him, his heart filled with emotion.

Although it lacks the hustle and bustle of the capital, it has a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.

He remarked with emotion, "I never imagined that I could live such a peaceful life here, far from the hustle and bustle of Beijing."

Looking at her father's satisfied expression, Lin Yuge felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

Mo Nan looked around and said, "The scenery here is beautiful, and the place is peaceful and pleasant. It is indeed a good place."

Lin Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his father return.

Finally, I don't have to be bossed around by my mother anymore.

He walked over as if he had seen a savior.

"Dad, you're finally back! Mom has been talking about you these past few days."

Lin Fanghai, unaware of the situation, simply assumed that his wife and children missed him.

He laughed heartily, "Your mother is such a worrywart. Come on, let's go inside and have a good chat."

Everyone went inside together.

Xie Jingwan came out to greet them upon hearing the commotion.

Upon seeing Lin Fanghai, a joyful smile appeared on his face.

"Honey, you're finally back! Sit down and rest."

Lin Fanghai shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm not tired, but you've all worked hard these past few days."

Xie Jingwan gave him a reproachful look and said, "What's so hard about it? It's all for this family!"

I've already started planning what he needs to do in the next couple of days.

Then she turned to look at the others.

"Brother Mo Nan is here too? Please, everyone, have a seat. Is there anything I can do for you this time?"

Mo Nan's expression was somewhat solemn as he looked at Lin Yuge.

He said, "Miss Lin, the young master has something to discuss with you and asked us to come and pick you up on our way to the salt field."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuge immediately put down what she was holding.

"What's wrong?"

Mo Nan shook his head, "I don't know the specifics, but there shouldn't be any major problems."

"However, the young master instructed that you must be taken there, so he must have something to ask you."

Lin Fanghai and Xie Jingwan exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with worry.

Lin Fanghai said, "Yuge, since the young master has something to attend to, you should go quickly. Be careful."

Lin Yuge nodded, "Father, Mother, don't worry, I'll be right back."

After saying that, she hurriedly left with Mo Nan and the others.

Lin Yuge followed Mo Nan and the others onto the warship.

Throughout the journey, I kept wondering what had happened at the saltworks.

Her eyes still involuntarily lingered on the ship in front of her.

This was her first time boarding this ancient warship.

The ship's manufacturing process must have been top-notch for this dynasty.
