Xiao Xu really came prepared, and deliberately brought a palace maid who was good at makeup and disguise out of the palace.

Under the skillful hands of this palace maid, Gu Wanning's fair and flawless skin turned yellow and darkened slightly, and the eyebrows and corners of his eyes were changed by the eyebrow pencil a little, and the outstanding brightness and unparalleled bearing were suddenly suppressed.

Just looking at the appearance, in fact, it has not changed much, but at first glance, it looks like a different person.

changed into palace clothes and wore a rosin-colored Luo skirt, at a glance, she was just a young woman with a good family background and good looks.

Gu Guanning took a self-portrait in the mirror and was quite satisfied.

looked back at Xiao Xu, but saw that Xiao Xu had become a handsome young man with weak eyes and a pale face and a slightly sickly face.

Gu Wanning couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

"My husband has been in poor health recently and is weak to walk, so please take care of the lady. Xiao Xu leaned over cheekily.

Gu Wanning raised his eyebrows, and responded rather domineeringly: "Follow me all the way, lean on me when you're tired, don't faint while walking." ”

Xiao Xu: "......"

Linlang Linglong turned their heads and snickered.

Fortunately, Xiao Xu's cheeks were thick enough, and he didn't take this little teasing to heart, and smiled leisurely: "It's not too early, we'll leave now." Go out and go around for two hours, and then come back. ”

……

Even if you travel lightly, you should not have too many guards with you, so as not to attract people's attention.

Mu Tao picked more than a dozen of the best guards to accompany him, and the remaining two hundred or so guards each dressed in the clothes of ordinary people and mingled in the crowd, always alerting to the movements around them.

Spacious carriages with no signs stopped at the side of the street where the people lived.

Xiao Xu got out of the carriage first, and then stretched out his hand to help Gu Wanning get out of the carriage.

Because of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the curfew was canceled in the capital, the market was prosperous, and the people who went out to play and wander could be seen everywhere, including many sons and brothers wearing silk and satin, and there were also many female dependents who were surrounded by servant women's families.

Xiao Xu Gu Guanning, who deliberately changed his disguise, each took away the dazzling light, looking at it as a loving couple who came out to hang out, with a wealthy family, and more than a dozen guards around him who were not easy to provoke at first glance. Therefore, the people in the market did not dare to approach at all, and ordinary people also subconsciously kept their distance.

Rao is like this, for Gu Guanning, this is also an extremely rare and fresh experience.

The market is very lively, and there are shops on both sides of the street, such as restaurants, teahouses, pawnshops, fat and flour shops, ironware, furniture, cloth, and rice...... Zero-zero total, everything. The vendors who had made the food passed by from time to time with their burdens on their shoulders, opening their mouths and shouting. There are also quarrels over bargaining, whether happy or angry or noisy.

The most real market life, the most vivid life, all in front of you.

Gu Wanning's eyes wandered around, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he was obviously in a good mood.

Xiao Xu's smiling voice sounded in his ears: "If you and I were an ordinary couple and lived in this market, I don't know what it would be like?"

Gu Wanning followed Xiao Xu's gaze and saw a young couple selling tofu brains shouting to greet guests.

The two of them were busy, their foreheads covered with beads of sweat, and they occasionally glanced at each other, their eyes filled with happy smiles.

"Maybe like them. Gu Wanning's eyes softened, and he whispered softly: "I worked hard for five buckets of rice, but I didn't complain." ”

Because there are people who love each other by your side, no matter how hard and tired you are, you are also willing to eat.

Xiao Xu's heart was full of sweetness, and she stretched out her hand and held her hand in the palm of her hand: "How about we also go eat a bowl of tofu brain?"

It is rare for Xiao Xu to have such a Yaxing, and Gu Wanning was not disappointed, and happily agreed.

……

The two stepped forward hand in hand slowly.

Mu Tao sent a secret signal to the guards hiding in the crowd, and soon, several guards dressed in people's clothes surrounded the small stall selling food.

"What do you want to eat?" the young woman asked inquiringly, "In addition to tofu brain, we have many delicious foods here, which we make with our own hands." Fresh, clean and tasty and cheap. ”

Gu Guanning said casually: "Then take two copies of each." ”

The young couple was in good spirits, and they were busy with their hands and feet. Soon, there was a pile of dishes on the table. Two large bowls of tofu brain, quite generous, as well as some simple and delicious side dishes and a few pastries.

I am used to eating the exquisite dishes in the palace, and occasionally change the taste, but it is also fresh.

Gu Guanning was the most picky about eating, and after a few bites of each, he put his chopsticks aside.

It's Xiao Xu, who is in a good mood today, has a better appetite, and eats quite happily.

Before leaving, Mu Tao put down two silver ingots weighing five taels.

The young couple was pleasantly surprised and thanked them again and again.

They have a busy day on weekdays, and they only get a few cents of silver. The whole ten taels of silver is the income of their husband and wife for a whole month. Today they must be auspicious and meet nobles.

……

After visiting the market, the two of them have not yet finished their fun.

Xiao Xu smiled and proposed: "This is not far from Ah Yan's good hall, since we are here, how about going to see Ah Yan?"

"It's okay," Gu Wanning responded without thinking.

After Shen Jinyan opened the good hall, he rarely returned to the Tai Hospital on weekdays, and the number of times he entered the Jiaofang Hall was even rarer. The last time I saw him was two months ago, and Gu Wanning couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

I just took this opportunity to take a look at how the good hall was built.

After two sticks of incense.

The carriage stopped in the open space outside the temple.

This charity hall covers an area of about dozens of acres, with more than 100 houses, and in front of it is a spacious and tidy medicine hall. There is a brand-new plaque hanging on the medicine hall, and the plaque reads Gu's Benevolence Hall.

Shen Jinyan was very disgusted with his surname, abandoned it, and insisted on using the name of Gu's Zuoshantang.

Gu Wanning knew about this earlier, and when he saw it with his own eyes at this time, he felt different.

Gu Wanning stood outside the good hall, silently staring at the word Gu on the plaque, and a warm current surged through his heart.

"Gu Clan Shantang," Xiao Xu read in a low voice, turned his head and smiled at Gu Wanning: "Ah Yan is really a caring person. ”

Gu Wanning smiled and hummed: "The door of Shantang has not been closed yet, let's go in and have a look." ”

The door of the hall is open, and the soft lights of the hall are scattered on the threshold. There were no guards guarding the door.

Gu Guanning subconsciously frowned, stepped forward slowly, and stepped in.

Xiao Xu entered the good hall side by side with her.

The first thing that catches your eye is the spacious and tidy medicine hall. In the rows of neat wooden shelves, all kinds of medicinal herbs are placed. A couple of guys stood aside. There are also two Lang Zhong who are sitting in the clinic, who are seeing patients.

Gu Wanning's eyes swept and he didn't find Shen Jinyan's figure.

At this moment, a fellow man stepped forward and asked politely, "This boy is going to see a doctor?" Please go over there and wait for a while, the two doctors are busy. ”
