Chapter 11: Sunrise over the Sea

Although Steward Wu is over fifty years old, he is not fat, and his body is still a little rickety, but he is also an adult man, Xianchen set up Steward Wu, but he didn't let his knees fall to the ground, "Uncle Wu, your knees are not good, you also know that I don't like these false courtesies, please get up quickly." ”

Steward Wu was no longer reluctant, got up and looked at Xian Chen, and couldn't help but say: "Miss, it's more beautiful than the eldest lady back then, if the eldest lady is still there, how happy it would be to see the young lady now!" ”

Steward Wu's words suddenly filled the air here with sadness, and when he mentioned his mother, Xian Chen's heart hurt like a knife, and Su's mother shed a handful of sad tears.

The sad air was suffocating, and Steward Wu felt that he had accidentally mentioned everyone's sadness, and he was also uncomfortable in his heart, so he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly leaned over and dragged out a basket from under the chair he was sitting on.

"Miss, this is a little bit of my wife's heart, she knows that you want to go back to Kyoto, so she specially made you your favorite egg yolk crisp, Miss, you will take it on the road to deal with the emergency."

Steward Wu lifted the basket, took out an egg yolk crisp from the basket and handed it to Xian Chen, "Miss, can you taste one first, will it be delicious?" ”

The egg yolk crisp made by the aunt of the Wu family is a must in Jiaozhou, a layer of puff pastry, a layer of lotus paste, wrapping the whole sea duck egg yolk in it, and the ghee is overflowing in one bite, mellow and fragrant, and the crispy slag.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's still the taste of childhood...... Xianchen took a bite of the egg yolk crisp, which was sweet and soft and glutinous, and praised the deliciousness of the egg yolk crisp, breaking the sad air here.

The atmosphere became harmonious, and Su's mother burst into tears and laughed, "Miss has liked to eat egg yolk crisp made by Aunt Wu since she was a child, and Aunt Wu is thoughtful, Uncle Wu will give me the basket, and I will collect it for Miss." ”

Steward Wu handed the basket to Mother Su, and Xian Chen saw that Steward Wu's hands, especially the tiger's mouth on his right hand, were covered with calluses, and these calluses were in the beating of the candle flame, flickering and secretly telling about Steward Wu's hard work over the years, and then looking at his more rickety figure in the candle flame, Xian Chen's heart rippled.

"Mother Su, by the way, bring me paper and pen."

Su's mother put the basket away, and soon brought paper and pen, and Xianchen wrote a letter, the content of which was: Wu Gang and his family Wu Wenshi are specially approved to come to recuperate, and the time limit is half a year, and the payment is made to Ran Xianchen.

Xianchen wrote the letter, folded the letter and took off a jade pendant from his neck, "Uncle Wu, Brother Dongdong has grown up, leave the things on the shop to Brother Dongdong, my aunt is not in good health, and your waist and legs are also old problems, this is for you." ”

Xian Chen wrapped the jade pendant and the letter, handed it to Steward Wu and continued: "Take my jade pendant and handwritten letter, take my aunt to Xiancheng Tongshan Medical Clinic to find a ghost doctor, and let him arrange for you to recuperate for half a year." ”

"Miss, this ......" Steward Wu was moved to tears, Xiancheng Tongshan Medical Practice's recuperation treatment, that is a place that only the magnates of the Ten Kingdoms of the Great Zhou Dynasty can afford, Miss waved her hand, and arranged for them to recuperate for half a year, Steward Wu was so moved that he didn't know what to say, his rough big hand wiped his ravine-horizontal face, wiped away the tears on his face, sniffed his nose and knelt down for Xian Chen, "Old butler, old butler thanked the eldest lady for her kindness!" ”

Xianchen hurriedly helped Steward Wu up again, "Uncle Wu, get up quickly, get up quickly!" Then he asked, "Uncle Wu, are you going to go to the barracks to find Dongdong and them?" ”

"Yes, miss, there are not enough people in the barracks, and I will rush over to help later." Steward Wu nodded.

"Then Uncle Wu, I have something I want to ask you for help."

"Miss has something, just tell me."

"You wait." Xianchen picked up a pen and wrote a few words on a new piece of letterhead, "Sleepy, don't wait, I'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

She folded the letter and handed it to Steward Wu, "Uncle Wu, please give this letter to His Royal Highness King Rui for me." ”

Today, the barracks ordered a hundred beef cattle, and the cooks in the barracks were not enough, so all the guys from the Shen family's butcher shop were recruited to help kill the cattle.

Steward Wu put the letter in the bag on his chest and said back: "It's not early, Miss rest early, I'll go to the barracks to help." ”

Steward Wu came to the barracks, just when he heard the platform of the martial arts training ground in the barracks, Gu Ziyi said loudly: "The soldiers of Ji Guo, you are all the pillars of Ji Guo, the frontier of Ji State, and the people of Jiaozhou need your protection, the mistakes made by General Cao cannot be borne by you, from now on, the past will be written off, everyone will drink this bowl of wine, or I am a good son of Ji Guo to protect the family and defend the country, or the pillars of my Ji country!" ”

Gu Ziyi drank the wine in the bowl boldly, and then proudly threw the bowl to the ground, and the pottery bowl fell to the ground with a cracking sound.

The soldiers followed suit, and after drinking the wine in the bowl, they all threw the bowl to the ground, bang, bang...... For a while, the sound of clay bowls shattering came and went.

As soon as the sound of smashing bowls subsided, the shouts of "Ruiwang Chitose, Chitose, Chitose ......" sounded in unison, and the sound was deafening like a tide.

Finally waited until the disbandment and the soldiers dispersed, and Steward Wu found a chance to meet Gu Ziyi, "His Royal Highness King Rui, this is a letter handed over to His Highness by the young master of my family." ”

Steward Wu was respectful, buried his head, and presented the letter to Gu Ziyi with both hands, Gu Ziyi took the letter, read it expressionlessly and asked: "Shopkeeper Wu, is Miss Xianchen really the young owner of your Shen family's butcher shop?" ”

Steward Wu didn't know why King Rui asked this, Miss and he had negotiated a big business of a hundred beef cattle, did he still suspect that Miss was the identity of the young owner?

Instead, Steward Wu thought again, in Ji Kingdom, almost all the young owners of a family are men, and it is estimated that only the Shen family is an exception, and Rui Wang Xu is suspicious because Miss is a daughter, right?

Steward Wu hurriedly replied: "Miss is indeed the young owner of my Shen family's butcher shop, please ask Your Highness to doubt this." ”

Doubt? Is he skeptical?

He just felt that Xianchen had another identity, he was very curious, he didn't know how many new identities this girl had, a smile flashed on Gu Ziyi's face, "Well, this king knows, you go down." ”

After Steward Wu left, Gu Ziyi walked to the beach not far from the barracks, sat on a reef, took out Xianchen's letter, looked at it again and again, and muttered in his mouth, "The words are very good, Juanxiu, the words are like their people, oh, no, people are more beautiful." ”

Gu Ziyi couldn't hide his joy, there was always a light smile on his face, he carefully folded the letter and put it into the pocket of his chest, and stroked the position of his chest, as if caressing a rare treasure, "Chenchen, if you are sleepy, you can sleep well, and I will come back tomorrow morning......"

Gu Ziyi put down the letter and lay on the reef looking at the starry sky and thinking about the fine dust, the fine dust at the other end had already slept beautifully after taking a bath.

Before dawn the next day, Gu Ziyi couldn't wait to come to the door of Xianchen's guest room, and he asked tentatively through the door, "Xianchen, are you up?" ”

Xianchen has been practicing kung fu all year round and is used to getting up early, and she happened to have finished washing when Gu Ziyi came.

Why did this person come so early, the other guests in the inn were still sleeping, Xian Chen was afraid that Gu Ziyi would wake up the other guests, so he hurriedly opened the door for Gu Ziyi in one step and two steps, "Your Highness......"

Xianchen said, "Your Highness, why are you here so early?" Before she finished speaking, she saw Gu Ziyi look at her, and when she saw that she was fully dressed, he interrupted her, "Go, follow me." He dragged her and ran out of the inn.

Xian Chen thought something had happened, followed Gu Ziyi all the way out of the inn, and asked again, what was going on, was something wrong?

Before the words could be asked, she suddenly felt that her feet were empty, and the whole person flew up, it was Gu Ziyi who picked her up by the waist, took her to fly over several rooftops in a row, and then took her to a reef beach by the sea.

In the distant sky, on the sea level, a round of red sun shyly came out tentatively, "Great, catch up with the red sun rising in the sea, look at the dust!" ”

Gu Ziyi was very excited, because even if there was a sunrise in Kyoto inland, the red sun would rise from the other side of the continuous mountain.

Gu Ziyi has been fighting outside all year round, and the places are only in the mountains, grasslands and deserts, and the sunrise in those places is different from the beautiful sunrise on the sea.

Gu Ziyi came to Jiaozhou on the day he was ambushed by the Dongyin people and poisoned, and endured the pain of poisoning, after he settled the soldiers, he collapsed in the early morning of the next day to go to Xiancheng to seek medical treatment.

He was obsessed with this beautiful scenery, and knew that Xianchen was going to get up and rush to Kyoto today, so he wanted to share the beautiful scenery of the sunrise on the sea with Xianchen, and brought Xianchen here early in the morning.

As a child who grew up by the sea, Xianchen has long been accustomed to the beauty of the sunrise on the sea, but Gu Ziyi's excitement brought her thoughts back to the scene when she saw the sunrise on the sea for the first time when she was a child.

At that time, she came to Xianzhuang not long ago, just began to learn to stand on the plum blossom pile, got up early in the morning to stand on the pile, saw a round of red sun rising in the distance, the glow dyed the sky red, the clouds on the horizon were burned a golden red, she was attracted by the beautiful scenery, a distraction fell from the plum blossom pile, and fell a.

"Hehe......" Thinking of the embarrassment when he was a child, Xian Chen couldn't help laughing.

Xian Chen smiled generously, revealing her white teeth, and the glow sprinkled on her, which also dyed her golden red, like an ordinary fairy, so beautiful that Gu Ziyi couldn't take his eyes off.

"Gu Ziyi, you brought me out in a hurry, did you take me to watch the sunrise?" Dusty eyes looked at Gu Ziyi.

Gu Ziyi reacted from his distraction, and there was a smile on his lips, "Xian Chen, what did you just call me?" ”

Xianchen reacted, not knowing which scripture was wrong in his mind just now, he blurted out Gu Ziyi's name, and she blessed her body, "His Royal Highness King Rui, it's the courtier's rudeness." ”
