After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 387 Floating Corpse

Chai Song waited until Yao Jiang was far away before closing the cabin door: "Madam, the person has gone far away."

Yifeng: "Mrs. Xiao, so the story about the water bandits is true?"

Xia Wanniang looked at the others and said, "I'm not sure, but based on the current flow rate, we may see floating corpses in a few days."

Porphyry's expression changed: "Is the news reliable?"

Xia Wanniang nodded: "There are no other boats on the river, and I can't define how these people died."

Qingfeng clapped the folding fan in his hand from time to time: "No wonder you asked about the Yaojiang River just now."

Yun He placed his finger on the sword beside him: "With fewer ships on the river, it's no surprise they chose this as their target."

Porphyry: "Indeed, even if someone reports it to the government, it is unlikely that the government will send a ship to check during this period of time. The risk is too great."

Xia Wanniang didn't expect the government to come and solve the problem, she just wanted to remind everyone that this road might not bring them peace.

Chai Song looked out the window: "It's snowing."

Everyone in the cabin turned their heads to look out the window, only to see snowflakes falling.

Xia Wanniang stood up and walked to the window, looking up at the falling snowflakes: "I'm afraid it will snow heavily tonight."

Xu Li stood up and said, "We don't know whether these people have left yet. Everyone should be more vigilant at night recently." Then he left the cabin first.

Xia Wanniang also turned around and left the room, walked to the deck and let the Saker Falcons and the others enter the cabin to prevent them from freezing into popsicles.

Lai Fu saw it was snowing, but he didn't think too much and just continued to find a place to sleep.

"Mom, is it snowing?" Several children ran out of the cabin.

Xia Wanniang watched them run out, wearing only light clothes: "Why don't you wear more clothes before going out? You might catch a cold, which will be very uncomfortable."

"Mom, we are in good health now!" Xiao Zisen said as he puffed out his chest.

Xia Wanniang pinched his little face and said, "I wonder if you are still getting carried away even though you are sick."

Xiao Zilin stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake: "What a pity, I can't play snowball fight with Shou Sui and the others this year."

Xia Wanniang put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Yes, I said I would take you ice skating and skiing this year, but we'll have to wait until next time."

Xiao Zimu watched as a layer of snow fell on the deck: "Mom, how long do we have to sail on the ship?"

"It depends on the situation on the river. If the river starts to show signs of freezing, we'll need to dock and switch to a horse-drawn carriage." Xia Wanniang and her companions have been out for about a month.

If nothing unexpected happens on the way, the river may be frozen in a month and they will need to switch to land transportation.

It is not a pleasant experience to travel by carriage on a snowy day.

Now they could only hurry as fast as possible. The closer they got to Maocheng, the shorter the time they would have to spend in the carriage.

Nothing special happened in the past few days, and Yao Jiang also put what Xia Wanniang had said before behind his mind.

"Boss Yao, Boss Yao, something bad has happened." A boatman ran over hurriedly.

Yao Jiang had just come in to rest for a while and drink some wine to warm himself up. He was also displeased by his yelling: "What's the matter!"

"There is a dead body on the river bank." The boatman's voice was trembling.

Yao Jiang thought he had heard it wrong: "Say it again."

"There is a floating corpse on the river, go and have a look!" The boatman's face turned pale.

Yao Jiang hurriedly followed the boatman to the deck, and saw several foamed and deformed corpses floating on the river, their appearances no longer recognizable.

It looked horrible, as if it had been dead for some time.

He saw Xia Wanniang and the others, and his voice trembled: "Mrs. Xiao, this, this..."

Xia Wanniang looked at Yao Jiang with a pale face: "Hurry up and leave here first!"

Yao Jiang nodded quickly and went to inform the boatman to speed up and leave the river.

Yunhe: "It's about the same time you expected to meet."

Xia Wanniang nodded: "The weather has changed. The temperature has dropped a bit recently, and the speed of the river flow has slowed down."

Yun He: "Still going by water?"
