Because before leaving, he had already flown the pigeon and passed the book to Su Qingyuan. Su Qingyuan ordered Xiaohuan and Yun Xin to go down the mountain to pick up Chen Qiuniang.

Chen Qiuniang also sent back the news, saying that she came back with the Ye family's boat. But when walking outside, she had to dress up in disguise, even if she followed the Ye family's boat, she and the three guards still had a different look.

In the past two years, Chen Qiuniang and Zhang Ci have traveled from south to north, and their cooking skills have improved again, and the disguise technique has advanced by leaps and bounds, and often the ease of appearance is so that connoisseurs can't see the slightest.

In the past two years, it seems that everything has been smooth, but only Chen Qiuniang's health has deteriorated. At first, I felt weak, then I often felt dizzy, and the lung discomfort caused by falling into the water in the past few years also surfaced, and I coughed all kinds of coughs. Zhang Ci was originally a half-hung doctor, but because of her physical discomfort, she was about to become a professional. Also because of her poor health, in the past two years, Zhang Ci has not only studied food, but also studied medical skills by the way, and the medical books of the entire nine families have been almost translated by him.

Then, Chen Qiuniang's health deteriorated day by day, so that illness and mourning became the norm.

Zhang Ci became more and more worried, and Chen Qiuniang also thought of the words of Taoist priest Linqiong, and felt a little uneasy in her heart. But neither of them said anything, they were still smiling all day long and intoxicated with food. But Chen Qiuniang could see that Zhang Ci had unconsciously slowed down the pace of travel. At the same time, Zhang Ci also ordered people to secretly find Taoist masters or Buddhist monks. In a few days, I will visit one. But most of them are just laymen, and they can't see anything, not even the fact that Chen Qiuniang is a living soul. There are a few who can see some clues, but they are also unclear. Or throw a sentence: Childe, a qiē with the fate.

In this fear, news came from Bianjing that the secret army of the Chai clan was incorporated into the sequence of the Imperial Forest Army by Zhao Kuangyin, and there was a sudden change in the recent days, and Zhang Yongde was held hostage. As Zhang Yongde's nominal second son and the patriarch of the Zhang family, Zhang Ci had to go.

As soon as Zhang Ci was about to leave, Su Qingyuan came with news that his master had returned and was waiting for them in California. Zhang Ci felt that this matter could not be delayed. I was afraid that Su Qingyuan's master would temporarily wander around. Let Chen Qiuniang go back first.

Chen Qiuniang disguised herself and followed the Ye family's boat back to Yuzhou.

The sunset dyed the red river, and she saw Xiaohuan and Yunxin looking at the pier at a glance, so she playfully teased the two. to recognize it. Yun Xin and Xiaohuan met her. I was very pleased. Knowing that her body is not as good as day by day, there is a gloomy cloud on her face.

"I don't have much to do, it's just an old problem left over from the past few years when I fell into the water. It's just a cough. Chen Qiuniang comforted the two.

Xiaohuan nodded reluctantly and said, "Your body is weaker, and the son is not at ease, so he rushed to Yuzhou with Master Zu yesterday." ”

"Ah, Master and Master Ancestor have come to Yuzhou?" Chen Qiuniang was very surprised, and her breath fluctuated slightly, causing a burst of coughing.

Xiaohuan's face changed, as if she was about to cry, and said, "Miss Sakura, you have such a bad cough." ”

Yun Xin pulled Xiaohuan's shirt and said, "What are you doing with this face?" Master Zu will definitely have a way. The evening breeze is cool, so let's go back quickly. ”

"Hey." Xiaohuan responded while patting Chen Qiuniang on the back. And over there, Xiang Yunxin had already beckoned the sedan chair to come over. Eight lifted the soft sedan chair and hung the word "floating light".

The two invited Chen Qiuniang to get on the sedan chair, and Yun Xincai said, "Miss Sakura, we will stay in Gongzi's Linjiang Annex tonight." Although it is a small restaurant, it is also an elegant place because of its high terrain and riverside. ”

"I've heard of this annex for a few years, but I've never come down from the mountains, and I've never seen it. It's an honor to see it today, so hurry up and get up. Chen Qiuniang smiled and put down the sedan curtain. Outside the curtain, Yun Xin answered and ordered the sedan chair to be raised.

The terrain of Yuzhou is special, and it climbs the hill. After several bumps, the soft sedan stopped in front of the riverside annex on the higher ground in Yuzhou. The plaque in the annex is Su Qingyuan's handwriting, written in cursive, very casual, like graffiti. And Su Qingyuan was already standing at the door, wearing a white robe, standing under the red lantern, and a little infiltrating.

"Master." Chen Qiuniang got out of the sedan chair and shouted, but there was a violent cough again.

Su Qingyuan frowned and said, "The evening breeze is cool, hurry up and enter the house." ”

Chen Qiuniang coughed, nodded at the same time, and strode towards the house. At that time, it was about too windy, and the hall was covered by eight brocade screens. Su Qingyuan said to Yun Xin: "She is coughing here, and she must not be in the hall, so you can help her to the side room." Later, I ordered someone to move the dinner to the flower hall of the wing. ”

When Yun Xin and Xiaohuan heard this, they immediately sent Chen Qiuniang to the West Wing. Because it was early autumn, Yuzhou was wet and cold, and the weather was cold at night, Chen Qiuniang's body had been relatively weak, and the carbon brazier had been placed in the west wing room early, and the floor heating was also turned on.

As soon as she entered the West Wing, Chen Qiuniang felt warm. Xiaohuan chattered about what happened on the mountain in the past few years that Chen Qiuniang was not in Fuguang Villa. In fact, it was nothing more than trivial things, but Xiaohuan found it very interesting and shared it with her. Yun Xin couldn't stand it from the sidelines, so he carefully arranged the meal.

The meals are very exquisite, they are all Chen Qiuniang's favorite dishes, although the craftsmanship is not as good as Zhang Ci and Chen Qiuniang, but it is also a superior work.

Chen Qiuniang sat down and invited the three guards, Yun Xin and Xiaohuan to dine together. Because they are all young people, they were a little restrained at first, but under Chen Qiuniang's repeated invitations, several people sat down together, ate and drank, and didn't care about the breaking rules of "eating without saying anything", and each said some interesting stories and insights over the years. The meal was lively and lively, and I ate it until late at night.

Xiaohuan and Yunxin drank some rice wine brought by Chen Qiuniang, and they were a little drunk, so they went back to their rooms and slept first. The three guards never drank alcohol, but only left their seats to stand guard outside the chamber. Chen Qiuniang ordered someone to clean up the leftovers on the table, then boiled water to make tea, and sat in the wing room waiting for her master.

The lights were cut several times, and Chen Qiuniang was a little drowsy, only to hear the guards outside the house shouting, "Who is coming?" ”

"Fuguang Gongzi and Mr. Tianyi, the master and ancestor of your master." The person who came replied was Su Qingyuan's voice.

When Chen Qiuniang heard this, she fell asleep and woke up, and hurriedly got up to greet her, and saw that her master was wearing a rare round-necked beard, a golden brocade belt, and her hair was neatly knotted.

She shouted, "Master." ”

When Su Qingyuan saw her, he flashed, pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said to her, "This is your ancestor." ”

"Su Ying has seen Shizu." Chen Qiuniang made a blessing salute, and then looked at this strange person who was praised by Zhang Ci and Su Qingyuan. The middle-aged man, with a mustache and a Taoist dress, did not carry a peachwood sword as in film and television dramas. The figure is a little taller than Su Qingyuan, and he is 1.8 meters tall. There is a kind of tranquility in the face, the facial features are upright and harmonious, and the eyes are sharp and unfavorable.

"You don't have to be formal, the door is all casual." He waved his robe.

"Sakura-chan, let's go inside, it's cold at this door, and you're not in good health." Su Qingyuan said.

Chen Qiuniang answered, and hurriedly let Su Qingyuan and Mr. Tianyi into the house and sit down. The tea that was brewed before has long been unusable. She smiled awkwardly and said that after taking a nap, she accidentally boiled the tea and boiled it again.

"You just make tea. In the past few years, I have traveled north and south, and I am fortunate to drink the tea of your wealthy feast, which is quite popular with me. After Mr. Tianyi sat down, he was not polite, and said tea directly.

"Ah, the ancestor likes it, then Sakura will make tea. I used to make tea, but I only made tea because I heard that my ancestor liked to make tea. Chen Qiuniang said while moving the tea set.

Mr. Tianyi just laughed and did not say anything. After a while, there was only the sound of cups and cups in the house, and after a while, the fragrance of tea wafted out, which was the tip of the yellow buds in front of the Ming Dynasty carried by Chen Qiuniang, and the soup was very beautiful. Chen Qiuniang took the tea and handed it to Mr. Tianyi and Su Qingyuan.

Mr. Tianyi took a drink and praised this tea as the best in tea. Chen Qiuniang smiled and said: "Thank you for the praise of the ancestor, if the ancestor likes it, Sakura will order someone to make zuò for the ancestor." ”

Mr. Tianyi waved his hand and said, "It's not necessary, I'm used to being idle and wild." Besides, people in the Daomen don't have much hobbies. ”

"The ancestor is a master, Sakura is a layman after all. That's just Sakura's mind. Chen Qiuniang continued.

Mr. Tianyi smiled and said, "I'm not here to talk about tea today. A few years ago, I traveled all over the world, and I also heard about your fall into the Minjiang River. The second son of the Zhang family withdrew from the marriage, resisted the decree, and became angry at the crown, and so on, which was known to the whole world, and it was boiling. At the time, I thought it was Miao. It wasn't until I was drinking in Cangzhou the year before that I happened to meet the Jiang family and talk about you and Zhang Ci to know the twists and turns. ”

"Huh? The Jiang family child that the ancestor said was Jiang Fan? Chen Qiuniang hurriedly asked.

"Exactly. Today's Liao celebrity Han Derang is also. Mr. Tianyi replied.

Chen Qiuniang thought of the back of Jiang Fan riding away that day, and thought of the things he had protected himself in the past, and now he was in that bitter cold place, so she sighed and said, "I owe him in the end." I wonder how he's doing now? ”

"But you don't have to worry about him. That boy had a very rich life. In this world, no one owes anyone. He helps you, you must have helped him in the past. But you shouldn't be here like this. Mr. Tianyi said.

Chen Qiuniang pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and sighed in a low voice, and asked, "The ancestor also saw it." ”

"Anyone who has a little Taoism can see it. You have a strong aura, not what a short-lived person should have. And this woman's face is the appearance of an untimely death. If you show it to someone who doesn't have enough Taoism, it's just that you're dead. Mr. Tianyi said.

"Master, I won't hide it from you. I'm from more than a thousand years later, and in that time and space, I was a restaurant owner, and I studied food in my spare time. As for the aura and personality, it is all due to the weak relationship between parents and their grandmother since childhood. And I came here across time and space because I found a jade pendant in a wine cellar. When she said this, she paused, took out the sachet containing the jade pendant from her neck, took out the jade plate of Zhang's housewife and spread it in the palm of her hand, and said, "Master, the jade pendant I saw that day is exactly this." ”

Mr. Tianyi glanced at it, frowned, and said, "This is a piece of fine jade, as a token of the housewife, close to you day and night, stained with your aura." No, this piece of jade—" Mr. Tianyi said this, and immediately picked up the jade and looked at it carefully. (To be continued......)
