Bai Zhuo immediately said excitedly: "Brother Wu Ya, where shall we go next? The pier?"
"Where do you go, you can decide for yourself, why ask me?" Song Wuya smiled slightly, not caring about Bai Zhuo, but focused on Situ Wen who was at the side.
Bai Zhuo was taken aback for a moment, obviously he hadn't realized what was going on.
"Wen'er, where are we going next?"
Stepping up to Situ Wen's side, Song Wuya almost pressed her cheek and asked.The hot breath from his mouth sprayed on Situ Wen's face, making Situ Wen feel ashamed immediately.But she didn't hide, she just lowered her head slightly with a blushing face, and murmured: "It's up to you to decide."
Witnessing the sweet scene of the two of them, Bai Zhuo felt embarrassed.
"Brother Wu Ya, do you want to be with Miss Situ?" Bai Zhuo said in surprise, but in a flash he noticed another question, "What about me?"
"You, of course, are with Xiaohuan." Song Wuya said angrily, gave Situ Wen a hand, turned around and headed towards the city gate. It seemed that they were going to the pier.
Throwing the two of them down, even Xiaohuan felt embarrassed.
"Miss! I..." Xiaohuan shouted loudly, trying to catch up.
"Xiaohuan, take good care of Mr. Bai!" Situ Wen knew that Xiaohuan was embarrassed to be alone with Bai Zhuo, but she also understood what Song Wuya meant by doing so, and immediately responded loudly to Xiaohuan.
This is good, Xiaohuan was taken aback, then froze in place.
As a result, Situ Wen and Song Wuya had already left, leaving them standing here stupidly not knowing what to do.
"Xiaohuan, it looks like they threw us here on purpose." Bai Zhuo was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Yeah!" Xiaohuan answered with her head lowered, but she didn't reply.
It was even more embarrassing for the two of them.Bai Zhuo was extremely nervous, the two of them had many chances to be together alone, but it was a bit unnatural to really want to be together.
"Where should we go?" Bai Zhuo asked in confusion.
And Xiaohuan is exactly the same as him now, shaking his head: "I don't know."
Compared to the two of them, Song Wuya and Situ Wen were much more relaxed.After all, their identity relationship is very clear, and they don't feel awkward walking together.
"Wu Ya, do you think the two of them will..."
Not far away, Situ Wen began to worry about the situation of the two of them.
Before she finished speaking, Song Wuya knew what she was worried about.
"Don't worry! I think it should be fine. At first, it will be somewhat awkward. But you haven't seen the two of them together, I think they were just thrown there on purpose by us, and we guessed our Intentional, so it's a little embarrassing. After a long time, it will be fine."
Song Wuya could take it easy, he wasn't worried about this.After all, love between men and women is a part of normal life, and it is also an innate instinct of human beings, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.
"It's raining lightly today, and there's no one outside the city!" Song Wuya looked at the distance with emotion, but there was no one in the hazy rain.
Situ Wen nodded affectionately: "Don't talk about the weather. Even if the sky is bright and clear today, people will gather in the city because of the opening ceremony."
"That's right." Song Wuya nodded, changed the handle of the umbrella in his hand, gently embraced Situ Wen, and stepped into the rain and fog in the distance.
The pier of the provincial capital is not far outside the city, even in the drizzle, as the two approached, the sound of shouting came to the ears.
People who earn hard-earned money don't care about the weather at all. The workers on the dock are still loading and unloading cargo.
"This pier is really not small!"
On the huge pier, there was a rush of people, and it was not clear how many people were busy loading and unloading ships.But this wharf looks huge to people.
The arrival of the two did not attract anyone's attention at all.Because at this moment, they only have the goods in their eyes, and they don't care about anything else.
"Be careful, the things in here can't see the water, wrap it up."
A foreman, standing on a high place, watched the coolies going back and forth below, and gave orders loudly.
The coolies worked hard and had enough of being useless all day long. Many of them felt resentment in their hearts.
The foreman's words came out, and immediately someone below laughed and muttered.
"Hmph! I'm afraid of the water. I'm afraid that the water will still be loaded on the ship in this rainy day. Isn't it just looking for trouble!"
Naturally, the foreman couldn't hear his muttering, but he wanted to watch these people quickly move the goods to the ship.Presumably he also knows that the people below will complain to some extent, and he doesn't bother to pay attention to it.
"Wu Ya, did you hear that? These goods are afraid of water. Look, what's in that bag that's bulging?"
The two stopped here, and Situ Wen watched the coolies pull the straw mats one by one, and wrapped the sacks one by one in the shed.
The sack was indeed filled to the brim, but because it was wrapped in straw mats, it was impossible to see clearly what was inside.
Fortunately, there are quite a few more in the shed, Song Wuya stared at those sacks.The surface of the sack seemed to be very smooth, and when the coolies moved it, it would appear to be somewhat difficult. Song Wuya had some guesses in his mind.
"It looks like it might contain something like grain. Or...salt?" Song Wuya thought that grain was more likely, but he still thought of salt.
Food is naturally afraid of water, and if it gets moldy due to moisture, it is naturally inedible.But to say that there are many things that are afraid of water, combined with what he saw in front of him, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is salt.
"Hey! Sixth, are you done? It looks like it's almost finished."
Song Wuya was about to step forward to ask what was in the sack when he heard the coolies gathered together, lowering their heads and muttering.
Song Wuya has good hearing and heard their whispered conversation.
As soon as the man finished speaking, a thin young man next to him immediately nodded and patted his stomach: "Brother Niu, don't worry, it's all done, enough for our brother."
"That's good, keep working. Sixth, just pretend you have a stomachache and go back." The man called Brother Niu greeted the others and told the sixth to go back.
Hearing this, Song Wuya naturally felt that there was something tricky about them.He looked at the sixth child's belly, he was thin and loose, so he really couldn't tell what was hidden in his belly.However, he was different from other coolies. He wore very little other clothes, except for a short jacket, and he alone wore a lot.
The sixth child got up, and immediately ran to the foreman: "Foreman, I feel sick to my stomach, I need to take a bath."
"Go, go!" The foreman looked Lao Liu up and down, waved his hands angrily, watched Lao Liu leave, and cursed angrily: "It's really a lazy donkey grinding too much shit."
After the foreman cursed, he immediately yelled at the other coolies: "Hurry up, you guys, that bastard, the sixth son, is shitting, hurry up."
This time, no one complained, but speeded up and quickly loaded the goods in the shed onto the ship.
Song Wuya's eyes followed the direction that the sixth child left, and lightly patted Situ Wen on the shoulder: "Let's follow the sixth child to see what this kid is hiding."
"Ok!"
The two quickly left the pier, chasing the direction that the sixth child left.As long as you know what is hidden in the belly of the sixth child, you will know what those goods are.

They didn't catch up with Lao Liu quickly, but followed the kid from a distance.
