Chapter Ninety-Four: Voyages at Sea

After Chen Wenhui and Zhao Chongyi discussed, they changed their approach, no longer cold to Mu Li, and began to communicate with Mu Li in the next few days.

After a few days of communication, Chen Wenhui and Zhao Chongyi found that Mu Li was really a versatile person. He can play musical instruments, and he sings very good songs, of course, all of them are the songs of the Baiyi people. The amount of alcohol is also good, especially I like the food on the ship, I am very happy to eat, and I can see that he is also a good person.

This kind of temperament is the most tempered by Chen Wenhui and his wife, so their communication became more and more.

In addition, the sea voyage is also boring, you can only stand on the deck to watch the sunrise and sunset, enjoy the beauty of the sea, and nothing else can be done, so the three of them have more time to talk.

However, Zhao Chongyi and Mu Li are more temperamental. Because they were sailing in the sea for the first time, they were very amazed by such a magnificent scene.

In the middle, there was also a storm and waves, such as heavy rain pouring down, dark clouds overhead, waves as high as a hill, ten huge fleets, in the face of such wind and waves, like a small boat, very dangerous. Of course, Mu Li vomited darkly, and Zhao Chongyi was better, but his face was also pale. Only Chen Wenhui and a few of her maids are still business as usual. This is also why they are used to haunting the wind and waves.

After this storm, Mu Li admired Chen Wenhui very much.

On this day, Mu Li was still in a weak period, although it was calm outside, but Mu Li could only stay in bed because he vomited too hard before. Fortunately, there was an experienced doctor on the ship, who prescribed medicine, and it was much better.

Today, he didn't go to Class A to chat with Zhao Chongyi, but lay in the cabin.

Akiko and Gardenia are waiting for him to drink.

After taking a sip, Mu Li, who was a little pale, waved his hand, looking at the two lovely and gentle maids, he suddenly remembered what Zhao Chongyi said before, these two maids were from Qingchun City. Indeed, he is a Japanese national. The women of the Japanese country are so gentle. There is nothing grumpy.

Mu Li couldn't help but ask Mingzi: "I heard that both of you are from the Japanese country?" ”

Akiko said, "Yes, Childe. I am a native of the Japanese country, but I am a slave of a noble family. Later, this aristocrat went bankrupt in the war. Just put the things at home. Person. It's all sold. In this way, I was sold to Shin Kong City. At first, I was scared. Later, I found out that Xinguang City was very good, warmer than the Wa Kingdom, and there was no master to scold him. It's a pity that we didn't stay long in Xinguang City, and we were resold to Qingchun City, and the City Lord's Mansion bought us. I became a subordinate of the City Lord's Mansion. ”

Muli continued to listen.

Akiko stopped talking.

Mu Li asked: "Besides, I want to know, how is Xinguang City a good law?" What's life like in Qingchun City? ”

Mingzi smiled and said: "In Xinguang City, we didn't stay for a long time, it was only about a month, I really didn't have a good look at Xinguang City?" However, since we arrived in Shin Kong City, we have begun to read and write, learn skills, and are very busy every day, but our lives are much better than before. I put on nice and comfortable clothes, and I started to pay my monthly money. Although at that time, the monthly money was only a hundred big dollars. However, it was also the first time I had any money. ”

"Later, we arrived in Qingchun City, which is better than Xinguang City. Especially when I entered the City Lord's Mansion. Childe, you don't know, the City Lord's Mansion is really beautiful, like a fairyland. We studied and worked in it, and every month we made more money. Gradually, as I grew up and saved a sum of money, I asked someone to take out my younger brothers and sisters in the Japanese country. My parents were not found, and I don't know where they were sold by their original owners. I don't know if I'm still alive. ”

Speaking of this, Akiko couldn't help but moisten the corners of her eyes.

Mu Li hurriedly said, "Then how many younger brothers and sisters do you have?" ”

At the mention of her younger siblings, Akiko was very happy, she said, "When I left the country of Wakoku, I had two younger brothers and a younger sister, and because they were relatively young, they all followed my parents. I was already eleven or twelve years old at that time, so I began to work as a maid in the original master's house. Not with my parents. I can only look at it from a distance from time to time. Now it's okay, my younger siblings are by my side. Well, I'm not here now, I'm out, my younger brothers and sisters are still in Qingchun City, and they haven't entered the City Lord's Mansion, they are all studying in the academy. ”

Mu Li couldn't help asking: "So, do you know how to read?" ”

Mingzi smiled and said, "There is no one in the City Lord's Mansion who doesn't know how to read. Of course we all know words. There are also some people who are very clever and can recite poetry. I'm stupid and stupid, I just know how to read, and I can settle accounts. And then there's the work. Nothing else, useless tight. ”

Gardenia on the side hurriedly said: "Sister Mingzi is not useless." Every time she is assessed in the house, she is in the top ten in the maid group. That's why they can be sent to serve. We all adore Sister Akiko. ”

Listening to Gardenia's childish words, Mu Li also laughed and asked, "Gardenia, are you also a native of the Japanese country?" Akiko was born as a house slave, what about you? Are you a civilian? How did you get to the City Lord's Mansion? You're not in the top ten, you must be very good, or you can't be sent. ”

Gardenia said, "Where am I so good at Sister Akiko?" I'm stupid. You can't do anything. ”

This is very clear to Muli. Basically, the things in the house are assigned by Akiko.,Gardenia is for Akiko.。 However, Gardenia is also doing a good job.

Who knows, Gardenia's words surprised Mu Li. Gardenia went on to say, "I am not from a commoner's background, nor am I from a domestic slave's background. My father was a daimyo of the Wa Kingdom. When I was a child, I remember that our house was very spacious and there were a lot of people. So, I was born as an aristocratic girl. And he was blessed. However, I was not born to Mrs. Zheng, I was born to my father's concubine. So, I wasn't valued by my father. It's just a quiet life in the house. However, one day, this life could not continue. ”

"There was a civil strife in our country, many nobles were unlucky, and my father failed in the battle for territory with others, and our family was arrested. I saw several of my older brothers, of course, not the same brother of the same mother, killed by another daimyō. Several of my sisters and I were taken into the mansion by that daimyo. My mother-in-law's sister was the oldest and very beautiful, and became the concubine of the big name. I also have a few younger sisters, all of whom have become subordinates of the house. Later, the daimyo was also unlucky and went bankrupt, so he sold all of us. Sister Akiko and I met on the boat to Shinkojo. Together ever since. ”

Mu Li was a little surprised, it turned out that this little maid was a nobleman of the Wa Kingdom, and in terms of identity, she was not lower than him, the son of the Bai clan in southern Xinjiang, but now she was just a little maid, specializing in serving people. This really shocked Mulley. It can be seen that once the family and country are in trouble, there will be no eggs under the nest.

Gardenia didn't notice anything unusual about Muli, and she continued, "However, my life is fine now. In the City Lord's Mansion, the food and accommodation are actually better than the daughters born to the concubines who were famous before. After all, our Wa Kingdom is a small country, and it can't be compared to the City Lord's Mansion. It's just that you have to work, there is no one to serve, you have to serve people, you have to learn the rules, and if you don't learn well, you will be scolded by your grandmother. I'm not like Sister Akiko. Sister Akiko is smart and capable, and she is praised by her grandmother every time. As for me, I get scolded every time. This time I'll be elected too, and I don't know why. ”

Mu Li glanced at Gardenia, who was only about fifteen years old, but already looked beautiful, and thought to himself, probably because of your noble blood and your excellent looks. Speaking of which, it's not as good as Akiko.

Mu Li couldn't help but be a little interested, thinking about the events of the past few days. Through contact with Zhao Chongyi and his wife, he felt more and more that this couple was really the dragon and phoenix among people, such characters, not to mention that there was such a powerful force behind them, even with their personal ability, they should be more enveloped, and Ram, a fool, actually offended. I really don't know what the queen mother and daughter think.

The queen has always looked down on Chen Wenhui and his wife. Because she is the king of southern Xinjiang, Chen Wenhui and his wife are just courtiers of Da Chu. No matter how powerful a courtier is, can he be as powerful as a king?

However, after understanding, he found that Chen Wenhui and his wife were not something that southern Xinjiang could afford to provoke at all. Didn't you see the Wa Kingdom? Xiao Chen's family said that it would be extinguished.

With the addition of a family of military generals like the Zhao family, the power of the Xiao Chen family in Nanyang will be further expanded, can such a family be provoked by Nanjiang? What's more, there are two behemoths behind them, Da Chu and the Chen family.

The queen really has long hair and short knowledge.

However, Mu Li doesn't want to worry about things in southern Xinjiang now. Even if southern Xinjiang is saved, what can it do? Under the Queen's rule, are the people of Southern Xinjiang doing well?

I didn't see the two little girls of the Japanese country who lived in Nanyang, and it is said that they lived much better than in their own country.

Mu Li has a deep resentment towards the queen, and at this moment, he is even more bloody in his heart.

Mingzi and Gardenia saw that the master did not speak, but a contemplative state, and did not make a sound, Mingzi whispered to Gardenia to take care of Muli, and she herself went out to see if dinner was ready, and it was best to let Childe eat more food, so that he could recover.

Mu Li was immersed in his own thoughts, but when the delicious meal came, his mood suddenly improved, and he also felt that after a day's rest, he was much better and his appetite was better, so he couldn't help but chew on the case. Akiko and Gardenia looked very happy. (To be continued......)
