Who would it be if it wasn\u2019t Zhao <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mingzhu?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His Mingzhu was here!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No wonder Zhao Jinge, who never had a problem with the cold, wrapped himself so <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tightly in the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">straw raincoat. It was because he was holding Zhao Mingzhu in his arms.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Jiang Zhen saw that Zhao Jinge was here, he was very surprised and happy, but he was even more excited to see Zhao Mingzhu.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he was here, he always missed Zhao Jinge and Zhao Mingzhu, so when he saw Zhao Jinge, he couldn&#8217;t wait to go and hug him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But . .\u00a0 .\u00a0 after sleeping outside for two months, Jiang Zhen was so dirty that he was disgusted with himself.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under such circumstances, it didn\u2019t matter if he hugged Zhao Jinge, who was wearing a straw raincoat, but Zhao Mingzhu . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen looked at his thick, cracked, and stained hands covered with mud; he really couldn\u2019t bear to reach out to hug her with them.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was also very excited. He was afraid that Jiang Zhen would bump into Zhao Mingzhu before, so h<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">e stopped him, but at the moment Jiang Zhen <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">stretched out his hand,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> he grabbed it and held it <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tightly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After grabbing Jiang Zhen&#8217;s hand, Zhao Jin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ge also patted Zhao Mingzhu, who was bound to his chest, with the other hand. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMingzhu, call him \u2018Father\u2019!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Mingzhu stared at Jiang Zhen with wide-open eyes; her pair of big black eyes stared at him without blinking.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His Mingzhu could already call him dad? Jiang Zhen looked at Zhao Mingzhu with surprise all over his face, waiting for her to call him, but Zhao Mingzhu kept her mouth shut.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She already knew how to call people when she was at home, but\u00a0 I don\u2019t know why she wouldn\u2019t say anything.\u201d Zhao Jinge looked at Jiang Zhen <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">awkwardly. After teaching Zhao Mingzhu for a long time, he finally taught Zhao Mingzhu how to say father and waited for this moment. But unexpectedly, his daughter stopped saying anything.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s alright. When I go back, I will teach her more, so she will call me!\u201d Jiang Zhen said, waiting to go back with Zhao Jinge. He must have taught Zhao Mingzhu every day, so she probably had already learned it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As soon as Jiang Zhen&#8217;s voice fell, Zhao Mingzhu, who had been watching him seriously for some time, suddenly opened her mouth. \u201cFather.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen only felt that his heart was about to melt.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the atmosphere going on between Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge, there was no place for anyone else but Zhao Mingzhu. When Zhu Erlin saw that, he looked at Jiang Ming and asked, \u201cWho is that?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge was a little different from what Zhu Erlin had imagined, but Zhu Erlin was born poor and still has a good feeling for strong people like Zhao Jinge. \u201cThat ger is good.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The others also thought that Zhao Jinge was good; such a sturdy ger could work, and he would not be targeted easily by the people from <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hongjiang Salt Farm, which was something they liked.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only Zhou Maohe was dissatisfied. \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s immoral! It\u2019s indecent!\u201d A man and<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a ger, how dare they hug each other in public!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, no one was listening to him at the moment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The people who were slowly following behind looked excitedly at the huge ships in front of them.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They have been living here for generations, but what they have experienced has caused them not to love this place too much. Since they could leave, they were all very willing to, hoping to go somewhere else and live a good life.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In such a situation, they were even more grateful to Jiang Zhen, and many people cried in a small voice out of happiness.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There were more and more people around, so Zhao Jinge finally came back to his senses and quickly released his grip on Jiang Zhen\u2019s hand before saying, \u201cQuickly let everyone on board. I\u2019ve asked someone to boil hot water for you, so you can take a bath and have a good rest.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMm.\u201d Jiang Zhen nodded and then added, \u201cLet them go up first.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge was hoping that Jiang Zhen could go up earlier and have a good rest, but Jiang Zhen wanted those people to go up first, so he followed Jiang Zhen and helped him maintain order while they let those people board the ships first.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Originally, when these people saw the ships, they were scrambling to get on board early, but when they noticed that Jiang Zhen was not boarding the ship, they also became less eager, letting people who were unwell board the ship first.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These people were saved by Jiang Zhen, but they were lacking food, clothing, as well as shelter. In fact, they didn\u2019t live a good life, and many people became sick or died, so this time, many had pale and haggard faces.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this regard, Jiang Zhen could not do anything except give them a little more food, but after that day, these people would never have to go hungry again.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhere is Young Master Zheng planning to locate them?\u201d Jiang Zhen took the time to ask Zhao Jinge.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These days, Zhao Jinge has been following Zheng Yi, and he knew about Zheng Yi\u2019s arrangements. \u201cSailing from here for about a day, we will reach a small island. Young Master Zheng intends to settle these people on that island first.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere\u2019s an island?\u201d Jiang Zhen added, \u201cWhose family owns that island?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are some fishermen living on that island. There are also some sea merchants that have docked there, but the island is ownerless,\u201d Zhao Jinge said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWell . . .\u201d Jiang Zhen looked in the direction Zhao Jinge pointed at and thought about it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ten thousand people boarded the ten ships.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was taking a lot of time, and by the time everyone was on board, it was already evening.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen did not get on the boat until that moment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He boarded the biggest one, and once he got in, he saw Zheng Yi waiting on the bow.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There were many people on the ship, but those people were arranged to get on board from the stern, so the bow was quiet and not messy at all.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zheng Yi was originally lying on a recliner at the bow, but after seeing Jiang Zhen, he stood up and said, \u201cJiang Zhen, long time no see.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYoung Master Zheng, long time no see,\u201d Jiang Zhen greeted Zheng Yi.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zheng Yi smiled toward Jiang Zhen and reached out his hand with the intention of inviting Jiang Zhen to sit beside him, but soon, his expression froze.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He had seen Jiang Zhen messy appearance after a fight, but he had never seen Jiang Zhen so muddy and dirty.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking at the exquisite snacks and expensive drinks he had prepared, Zheng Yi said, \u201cJiang Zhen, go wash up first. We can talk later.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen also felt that he should wash up first.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Zhao Jinge came to pick up Jiang Zhen, he also brought Cook Li and Ruo\u2019er with him. After boarding the ship, he handed Zhao Mingzhu to Cook Li and then helped Jiang Zhen wash his hands and feet.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before, although Jiang Zhen\u2019s hands had thick calluses, his pampered life had left his hands free from chapping, but this time . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge looked at Jiang Zhen\u2019s cracked hands and felt very distressed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m fine.\u2019 Jiang Zhen withdrew his hand and took off his clothes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He likes to be clean, so he has boiled water to wipe his body these days. But his clothes were still dirty. After taking them off his dirty clothes and washing his hands and feet, he didn\u2019t look as bad as at the beginning.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJinge, do you want to bathe with me?\u201d Jiang Zhen stood beside the tub, smiling at Zhao Jinge.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by: Faro<\/p>\r\n<p>Proofreader: Xiao Hua<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cMingzhu?\u201d Jiang Zhen looked at the child who poked her head out from Zhao Jinge\u2019s coat in surprise.
