Mu Cailiang looked at the long pole held in the young man's hand and asked: "How...how do you fish?"
He thought to himself that this young man must be joking.
How could such a brittle bamboo pole catch a person?
But no matter what, since I am here now, it must have been saved by the person in front of me.
Mu Cailiang no longer thought about how he caught it, and immediately bowed and bowed.
"Mu Cai Liang, thank you benefactor for saving me."
When Chen Changsheng heard this, he turned around again and said, "In Chen's opinion, everything we meet is fate. Just for the word fate, there is no need to thank you too much."
"The rain is light now, and it will get dark soon. You might as well go back and change clothes quickly. The wind is strong by the river. If it blows for a while and you get cold, that's not good."
After hearing this, Mu Cailiang said: "My benefactor saved my life, so why should Mu leave?"
Chen Changsheng said calmly: "You are here to disturb Chen's fishing."
Mu Cailiang opened his mouth and paused as he wanted to speak, not knowing how to continue.
He glanced at the young man in green shirt holding a bamboo pole again.
After thinking for a moment, Mu Cailiang said: "My benefactor, please wait for me for a moment."
Chen Changsheng looked back and saw that Mu Cailiang had already walked out of the pavilion. He ran towards the shop in the heavy rain, not knowing what he was going to do.
Chen Changsheng stopped thinking about it and concentrated on catching fish.
…
"Crash..."
The rain fell on Mu Cailiang's body. Perhaps because his clothes were stained with rain, his steps became a lot heavier.
The long boots stepped on the puddles and splashed.
He kept running towards the shops in the market.
Mu Cailiang ran into a clothing store.
"Master Mu?"
The shop clerk was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward. Seeing that Mu Cailiang was all wet, he asked, "Why didn't you bring an umbrella with you?"
"it's okay no problem."
Mu Cailiang said: "Is shopkeeper He in the shop? I'm looking for him because I have something to do."
"I'm going to call the shopkeeper right now."
The guy hurried upstairs.
After a while, the shopkeeper He Erlang walked down.
"Master Mu!?"
Seeing how embarrassed He Erlang was, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
Before he could speak, Mu Cailiang said, "Shopkeeper He, I want to ask you something. Do you think it's okay?"
"Sit down and talk first."
He Erlang pulled him to sit down, but Mu Cailiang refused.
Makicai Liang trembled and said: "I won't sit down anymore, I won't sit down anymore, it's important."
He Erlang said quickly: "Master Mu, please tell me that as long as He can help, there will be no excuses."
"Can you..."
Mu Cailiang said: "Give me a cloak on credit, and I'll give you the money tomorrow."
He Erlang heard this and said quickly: "Master Mu, why would you say such a thing? If it weren't for you, our whole family would have been lost in the flood. It's just a cloak, why do we need credit?"
"I'll get it right away."
He Erlang handed the cloak to Master Mu.
Mu Cailiang said: "Thank you very much, Shopkeeper He. I will return it tomorrow."
"No money!"
He Erlang repeatedly said he didn't want any money.
Mu Cailiang looked panicked and said, "Can I borrow another umbrella?"
Seeing that he was about to leave, He Erlang said quickly: "Master Mu, please change your clothes before leaving! I don't have anything else here, but I have a lot of clothes. How can I go out with wet clothes in such a strong wind?"
"No no no."
Mu Cailiang thought for a moment and knew that he couldn't defeat Shopkeeper He today, so he simply hid the cloak under his body and ran out.
"Master Mu!"
Shopkeeper He was stunned for a moment and wanted to chase outside.
"Don't catch up!"
Mu Cailiang said something and rushed back towards the river while protecting the cloak.
He Erlang looked at this scene and felt strange, but he didn't know what Master Mu wanted the cloak for.
But after thinking about it, he still said to the boy next to him: "Go pick out some clothes. When the rain subsides, I will deliver them to Mr. Mu."
"Okay, shopkeeper." The waiter agreed.
…
Makicai Liang was careful not to let the rain get his cloak wet, and he bent his body to block the rain.
A few minutes later, he rushed back to Changting.
"Benefactor."
Makicai Liang took a few breaths.
Chen Changsheng heard the movement behind him and was stunned for a moment: "Why are you back again?"
Mu Cailiang immediately said: "I have nothing to repay my benefactor. As my benefactor said, the wind on the river is strong and you are susceptible to wind and cold. I gave this cloak to my benefactor to keep me warm when I wear it."
The rain trickled down his hair, and he was soaked all over. The dripping water formed puddles on the soles of his feet.
Chen Changsheng wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he put the cloak away.
Because this is hard to escape.
"Thank you very much."
Seeing his benefactor accept the cloak, Mu Cai breathed a sigh of relief in his conscience.
"My benefactor might as well put it on."
"That's fine."
Chen Changsheng put on the windbreaker in front of him.
Makicai Liang smiled and said, "Just right."
Chen Changsheng nodded, and then said: "You are wet now, it is best to go back and change clothes quickly."
Makicai Liang said: "I felt relieved after the cloak was delivered to me, so I went back and changed my clothes before coming back."
Chen Changsheng looked at the umbrella placed in the pavilion and said, "It's raining heavily outside. It's better to go back with an umbrella. Remember to ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine to avoid anything going wrong."
After hearing this, Mu Cailiang shook his head and said, "But if Mu takes away the umbrella, what will my benefactor do?"
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "Chen won't leave until the rain stops, so feel free to take it, but you will have to return this umbrella to Chen when the time comes. After all, it was Chen who borrowed it."
After hearing this, Mu Cailiang hesitated for a moment, then thought about it and picked up the oiled paper fan.
"Thank you so much, my benefactor."
He took up his umbrella and left.
Chen Changsheng watched him gradually go away and raised his hand to do some calculations.
"It's actually Governor Shuihe..."
But he was only the former Governor of Shuihe.
After the destruction of Jing Dynasty, most of the local officials in various places were replaced by Xiang people, but Xiang people, not local people, were not familiar with them after all.
After several mistakes, many bad things happened.
After knowing this, Mu Cailiang, who had retired as the governor of Shuihe River, often observed water conservancy matters privately and avoided many disasters.
Now in his sixtieth year, he still has never let go of the river in front of him.
"He is a responsible 'Governor of Water River'."
Chen Changsheng shook his head and sighed: "The change of dynasty is bound to cause some chaos. It's a pity that good officials' talents are buried like this..."
But the good thing is.
The buried person never buries himself.
Chen Changsheng retracted his thoughts and focused on the bamboo pole in his hand.
Looking towards the river again, Chen Changsheng smiled warmly and muttered.
"Chen's 'fish' is about to be hooked."
The tiny hook fell into the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the river, and while swinging back and forth, it searched for it in the Dragon Palace.
