Chapter 1000 Farewell at the Pier
Chapter 1000 Farewell at the Pier
February 20th.
Suitable for: traveling, getting married, moving, and breaking ground.
Taboo: funerals, consecration ceremonies, fasting and prayer ceremonies.
Sun Shan and his group appeared at the dock.
There is a gentle breeze, bringing a bit of coolness.
Aunt Sun, Mrs. Su, and Sister Yun had red eyes and tears fell drop by drop.
The little fat girl in Nanny He's arms saw this and started crying loudly, and no matter how she was comforted, she wouldn't stop.
Sun Shan touched the little fat girl's face and cried even harder, forcing Nanny He to hold the little fat girl away.
The little black girl next to them heard the little fat girl crying. She didn't ask why, or maybe she did, but everyone didn't know, so she started crying too.
Li Jinhua was still saying goodbye to Guiger sadly, but now she had to stop and comfort little Heimei.
Gui Ge'er took a look at his daughter. She was still dark-skinned and hadn't grown any white hair in several months. It seemed that she would remain dark-skinned in the future.
He whispered to Jinhua, "Take good care of Heimei at home, and wait for Shange to write back, then come to Yuanlu with sister-in-law."
He glanced at the little fat girl who was still crying loudly and continued, "Let Hei Mei get along well with Xiao Xiao. Shan Ge is so smart, Xiao Xiao must be smart too. If Hei Mei hangs out with smart people, she will also become smart. Let Hei Mei follow Xiao Xiao in the future. There will be many benefits and a bright future for her."
Gui Ge'er thought that Brother Shan must not be separated from Sister Yun for a long time, otherwise how could he give birth to little Shanzi.
Brother Shan already has little Shanzi, and he also wants to have little Guizi, so he must let Jinhua follow Sister Yun closely.
Li Jinhua nodded quickly and said, "Brother Gui, I understand. Xiaoxiao likes Hei Mei the most, and she will like Hei Mei in the future too."
Gui Ge'er looked at the still sobbing little black girl with satisfaction.
He nodded and said, "Yeah, that's it."
Then he said, "I gave you 20 taels, spend it sparingly. Help your uncle and aunt with their work more often, and don't be lazy. We in the Sun family don't support lazy people."
Because Gui Ge'er is not at home all year round, Li Jinbao and Xiao Heimei live in the old house of the Sun family all year round.
Gui Ge'er naturally thought that Jinhua should help with the work and should not eat and drink for free.
Li Jinhua also thought so. If she wanted to live a good life following Sister Yun, she would naturally have to work harder.
He agreed repeatedly: "Brother Gui, I understand."
After a pause, he said, "Brother Gui, please be careful on this journey and make sure everything goes smoothly and safely."
Gui Ge'er said nonchalantly, "I will follow Brother Shan, and everything will be fine. Brother Shan is not only smart but also lucky. Even if he encounters danger, he can turn it into good fortune."
After talking to Li Jinhua for a few words, Gui Ge'er became impatient and immediately ran to Sun Shan to serve him.
Compared with his wife and children, Shan Ge is more important.
What's more, Brother Shan can't leave him for a moment, and he is a qualified book boy.
Sun Shan was being talked to by Aunt Sun and Su, who kept giving him instructions, wiping away tears as they did so.
Sun Shan said soothingly, "Aunt, mother, don't cry."
Sister Yun's eyes were red as she said to Sun Shan, "Brother Shan, just take up your post and leave the family to me. I will take good care of Dad, Mom and Xiaoxiao."
Big Fatty ran over and said reluctantly, "Brother Shan, you are leaving. I really don't want to see you go."
After that, he handed Sun Shan a willow branch and recited a farewell poem: "Thousands of miles of yellow clouds, the sun is dim, the north wind blows the geese and the snow falls. Don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead, everyone in the world knows you."
After hearing this, Sun Shan rolled his eyes.
What poem is this?
He had just started working as an official and was in high spirits. How could Gao Shi's farewell poem, which was written in a frustrated tone and was meant to "borrow other people's wine cups to pour out his own sorrows", be suitable for him?
Sun Shan gave Dapangpang a very bad review!
He took the willow branch and glared at He Shuqiang: "Brother Qiang, don't forget what I said. Study hard and try to pass the college entrance examination this year and become a scholar. I'll be waiting for your good news in Yuanlu."
Dapangpang was so depressed. How come Shan Ge didn’t forget about his studies at the moment of leaving?
Oh, what if I fail the college entrance examination in August? I don't even dare to write to Brother Shan.
He Shutong also handed a willow branch to Sun Shan and said sadly: "Brother-in-law, take care on your way. Thank you for your careful teaching these days, I have benefited a lot. Brother-in-law, I will study hard and will not let you down."
Look, they are brothers from the same mother, but there is such a big gap between them!
Sun Shan glared at He Shuqiang again, then changed his expression and said gently: "Brother Tong, good, good, good. Your studies are very solid, and your brother-in-law believes that you will definitely pass the college entrance examination this time."
Then he added: "It doesn't matter if you fail the exam, the most important thing is to give it your all. I have always known your diligence, and God rewards hard work. I firmly believe that you will be able to pass the imperial examination."
He Shutong's eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Brother-in-law, I understand."
Da Pangpang was dumbfounded. Brother Shan was too big and thin.
He is as cruel and merciless as a harsh winter to himself, but as warm as spring to his younger brothers.
And treating him like this in person is really too much.
Just watching Sun Shan say goodbye to everyone one by one, He Shuqiang was instantly overwhelmed with anger.
Because at this moment I feel more sad. After this separation, I don’t know when we will meet again.
Big Fatty's eyes were red, and he shouted excitedly: "Brother Shan, you must write to me often."
Sun Shan ignored Da Pangpang and said goodbye to his relatives and friends one by one.
Old Master He San also came to see him off today. The elder told the younger generation, "Shanzi, have a safe journey. Be a good official. If you encounter any difficulties, write back and tell us."
Sun Shan nodded and said with emotion, "Grandpa, I understand."
Second cousin He Shuyu held Sun Shan's hand tightly. He was not sad at first, but when he saw the women crying, he couldn't help feeling sad.
He said to Sun Shan: "Shanzi, I wish you a successful start and immediate success. When you become rich in the future, remember to support me. If you become rich, don't forget me."
Sun Shan was originally very moved, but after hearing the following words, he immediately shook off He Shuyu's hand.
He shook his head and said, "Second cousin, it's not that I don't want to help you, but your ability is not good enough. Even if I help you, it will be useless."
He Shuyu was so angry that she slapped Sun Shan on the arm and said angrily, "Shanzi, I was so good to you, but you treated me like this. I will tell my father and mother and expose your true colors."
Sun Shan didn't care at all and said with a smile: "Second cousin, do you think my aunt and uncle believe you or me? Hahaha..."
This made He Shuyu angry again, because his father and mother really believed in Sun Shan and not himself.
After Sun Shan and He Shuyu had such a quarrel, the sadness of separation was much alleviated.
It was almost time and all the luggage had been moved onto the boat.
Sun Shan knelt down heavily and kowtowed three times to Sun Boming and Su.
She was sad about the separation and worried about the future, and finally said firmly: "Dad, Mom, take care of yourselves and wait for your son to come back."
