Chapter 1049 Don't make a fuss about a small matter
After confirming the time to board the boat, Jiang Wan drove Chen Zewen to a nearby restaurant for dinner, and then booked a room in the town.
"Zewen, I'm afraid it will be hard to sleep on the boat at night. Let's take a nap first and rest up before going back."
Cheng Zewen nodded obediently, but after Jiang Wan lay down, he quietly touched her bed.
He fell asleep sweetly with his arms around her.
Jiang Wan heard the child's heavy breathing, sighed and patted his little head.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly. They both slept very soundly and didn't wake up until 12 o'clock in the evening.
They had agreed to board the boat at one o'clock in the morning, and now they had an hour to prepare.
Jiang Wan gently patted Cheng Zewen who was sleeping soundly.
"Zewen, Zewen, we are leaving for Hong Kong City."
Cheng Zewen was a little confused when he first woke up. But when he heard his mother say that they were about to leave, he quickly opened his eyes and got up from the bed.
Cheng Zewen moved very quickly, and didn't even need to be urged.
After he got up, he rubbed his eyes, quickly put on his clothes, and immediately followed Jiang Wan.
"Mom, I'm ready."
Cheng Zewen raised his head and smiled sweetly at her, and Jiang Wan felt her heart soften.
"My baby is so well behaved, mommy loves him so much!"
Jiang Wan took Cheng Zewen's hand and walked out of the room. She quickly completed the formalities and then drove to the nearby pier.
She parked the car some distance away from the dock and stayed in the car for a while. Sure enough, she saw a small boat approaching the shore.
She stayed in the car for a while and saw people getting on the boat one after another. Then she calculated the time and took Cheng Zewen with her.
Since we were carrying children, there was no room for error.
She had finally brought the child back from Hong Kong City and raised him for such a long time. Now she was going back to make him better, not to leave his life there.
When Jiang Wan went over, she saw that the man who had bargained with her during the day was holding the oar.
Needless to say, Jiang Wan's guess was correct. The man was indeed the owner of the ship.
In this case, the accuracy of what he said remains to be seen.
Fortunately, she inquired about the matter again after she arrived in town.
What I found out was similar to what the man said.
The ferry ticket prices have indeed increased, and the sale has been very strict recently, so fewer people are going to the port city.
Since the situation was true, she didn't hold on to the matter.
After getting on the boat, Jiang Wan chose a corner to sit down.
She placed one hand gently on Cheng Zewen's shoulder in a protective gesture.
After Jiang Wan sat down, the little monkey opened a small hole in the bag she was carrying and poked its head out.
Jiang Wan's bag was placed in the corner at this time, and the little monkey could crawl out and see the scenery outside.
It was a bit cold at the seaside at night, with gusts of cold wind blowing over, making people shiver.
Jiang Wan quickly took out a long-sleeved jacket from her bag and carefully put it on her son.
Cheng Zewen raised his arms and stretched his neck to coordinate with her movements. He did whatever she asked him to do and was extremely obedient.
After packing his clothes, Cheng Zewen felt a lot warmer. Jiang Wan took out a pair of thicker pants from the bag and put them on him.
"Wear more warm clothes so you won't catch a cold."
Jiang Wan had just finished dressing the child when a warm little hand reached out to him.
"Mom, it's so cold at sea, you should wear more clothes, don't freeze before you get to the destination, I feel bad for you."
Jiang Wan smiled and said okay, then took out a coat from his bag and put it on.
The people on the boat couldn't help but feel a little envious when they saw the little actions of the mother and son.
Someone smacked his lips and said with pretended envy.
"I didn't realize you two have such a good relationship."
Jiang Wan didn't want to pay attention to the other party, but it was not appropriate to say nothing at all, so he just said this coldly.
"good."
Normally speaking, seeing the other person being so cold, no one would talk to him/her.
However, I didn't expect that the person who was speaking was not a normal person, and he continued to talk to himself.
"No matter how good the relationship between mother and son is, it can't be used to make a living. You still have to leave your hometown. If you can't make it in the mainland, you have to go to Hong Kong to develop."
"If you go there alone, you should be able to find someone quickly given your looks."
"Now that you have such a burden, your life will be difficult in the future."
The man's words became more and more outrageous, and Jiang Wan frowned and didn't want to pay any attention to him.
She deliberately half-closed her eyes, making it clear that she didn't want to talk to anyone.
I didn't expect that even though she showed it so obviously, this man still refused to give up.
"My dear, I think we are from the same place and we are on the same boat together. It seems like we are destined to be together."
"Now you are going to Hong Kong City, and I am going to Hong Kong City too. You take a son and I take a daughter."
"You see, I'm a pretty honest person. How about we just live together?"
There was a smell of cigarette smoke when the man spoke, and a mouthful of yellow teeth when he smiled.
This man looks to be in his forties or fifties, almost as old as her father.
He only giggles when he's with a little girl in his arms. Needless to say, you can tell at first glance that he's an intellectually disabled fool.
Jiang Wan didn't know where this man got the courage from. Without any clear expression from Jiang Wan, he actually thought they were suitable.
Jiang Wan glared and said unhappily.
"I need to rest now, please stay away from me."
Jiang Wan had a conflict with someone on the boat last time, which led to the strict crackdown on illegal immigration now.
Although the man seemed to deserve a beating as he came close to her, she did not hit him.
The main reason was that he was afraid that he would not use enough force when he attacked, and if he accidentally killed someone, everyone on the boat would suffer.
"Boss, there's a pervert harassing me, aren't you going to do anything about it?"
"If you don't take care of it yourself, someone will die when I take care of it."
There was a threat in Jiang Wan's words, but the boss and the man with yellow teeth didn't seem to understand.
"Oops! Others are just joking with you, don't take it seriously!"
"Besides, we are just rough guys. We are just talking and we won't really do anything. Don't get so excited."
When the boss encounters this kind of situation, he will naturally try to reconcile and not create any more trouble.
And his idea was very simple. A woman who went to Hong Kong City alone with her child must be lonely and helpless, so it was normal for her to have a man to rely on.
Besides, men in the village used to make up dirty rumors about women. The women were very excited at first, but then they gradually got used to it.
The boss didn't think it was a big deal, and others followed suit, asking Jiang Wan not to make a fuss over such a small matter.
Their behavior encouraged the arrogance of the yellow-toothed man.
He felt that everyone was on his side, so not only did he speak more and more outrageously, he even started to make physical advances.
