Chapter 448: Ten Years
Hu Guiyang stood still at the door, the right sleeve of the grass opposite was slightly flicked, and the chain gun flew out from behind his waist, silently piercing the window paper, and then retracted.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, as if someone was retreating, followed by a voice: "Hey, Hu Guiyang, you rely on women for protection now." ”
"yes, aren't you convinced?" Hu Guiyang turned around and said, "Don't even give a congratulatory gift, just come to squat in the corner of the wall and eavesdrop on the cave room, don't you blush?" ”
There was no sound outside, and the man was clearly gone.
"It's not Zhao Aqi, it's Xiao Tan, I heard that they are still recuperating from their injuries, how dare they run around?"
The grass didn't squeak, and the chain gun had been put away, showing no traces.
Hu Guiyang came to Xiaocao and was inexplicably a little nervous, "Do you think there are still people eavesdropping outside?" ”
Xiaocao shook her head slightly.
Hu Guiyang stretched out his hand to touch the hijab, and immediately retracted it, "I just said that I brought my father-in-law and mother-in-law because they have no other children and are so good to you, so I want to support them, not all for money, of course, more money is better, and it can save a lot of trouble." ”
Xiaocao nodded slightly.
"Shenyu is here with me, He Sanchen gave it to me, I didn't tell you earlier......"
Xiaocao lifted the hijab herself, "They told me that I can't say a word before I lift this cloth, otherwise we will all be unlucky in the future." Then he put it on again.
Hu Guiyang was stunned for a moment, and then he reached out and lifted his hijab, "There is still such a statement?" The first time I got married, I had no experience, and I ...... later. No more chance. ”
Xiaocao bit her lip and looked away.
"Let's rest, it's been so long, it's going to be dawn, and a large group of people will have to come tomorrow."
Xiaocao simply lowered her head.
Hu Guiyang blew out the candles on the table, walked to the bed in the dark, sat down side by side with Xiaocao, and touched her hand, Xiaocao moved a little to the side as if she had been pricked by a needle.
"Are you scared?" Hu Guiyang asked in surprise, in his memory, Xiaocao's courage was not small.
"I ...... I'm not afraid, it's ...... It's ......"
"A little nervous?"
"Hmm."
"I'm nervous, too, I always think you're too young, we're so familiar, and you're still carrying a chain gun, so much better than me."
Xiaocao laughed, "The chain gun must stay by his side, who knows when the enemy will appear again?" ”
"That's right. These guys, who are not married, came to eavesdrop on my cave room, and they are extremely shameless. ”
"That, Brother Hu, it's so late, you said that there are guests coming tomorrow, let's ...... Let's ......"
"Let's rest for a while and don't do anything else." Hu Guiyang yawned, "I'm trapped." ”
Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief.
The two sat down for a while, and Hu Guiyang asked, "Don't you sleep inside?" If you are too crowded, I will sleep on a stool, you know my ability, and you can sleep anywhere. ”
"No, you...... I sleep inside, I sleep outside, and in case there is an enemy, I can easily attack. ”
Hu Guiyang took off his coat and boots, lay down in the bed, and after a while, Xiaocao also lay down, as if he hadn't taken off a single piece of clothing, but fortunately, there were not so many jewelry on his head, so it would not affect his sleep.
Hu Guiyang suddenly had an idea in his heart, feeling that He Sanchen chose to give him the divine jade at this time, but he actually had ulterior motives. He wanted to tell Xiaocao about this thought, but before he could think about how to speak, the person was already asleep.
Early the next morning, Hu Guiyang was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, sat up on the ground, and found that it was already bright outside, the grass was missing, and the sound of firecrackers outside was loud, mixed with the sound of boiling people.
Yesterday's guests are here again.
missed last night's wedding, Fan Dajian was extremely dissatisfied, that is, he brought people to the backyard to set off firecrackers, woke up the groom, and shouted to see the bride.
The bride had already gotten up, and the first person to see was the flower lady and many other female relatives.
Mrs. Hua carefully inspected the bride before and after, and solemnly announced that the daughter-in-law of the Hu family would give birth to a noble son, and then took her to recognize her relatives one by one.
The little straw man was very generous, and quickly won the hearts of everyone, and surrounded her to welcome the male guests, forgetting the groom and the groom.
Yuan Mao and Fan Dajian recognized Xiaocao, and when they saw that the bride was her, they couldn't help but be surprised, and Lao Dao pointed at her and said, "You are ...... You are...... Hu Guiyang, this guy, didn't reveal his tone at all! ”
Hu Guiyang came out, reopened the banquet, and feasted again, this time the wine and food were sumptuous, but everyone missed the tasteless "silver money dish" last night, and the eyebrows of those who had enjoyed it danced, and those who had no chance sighed.
The banquet lasted from morning to evening, and Hu Guiyang drank too much, staggered, and fell on the ground several times, but he was happy in his heart and did not feel uncomfortable.
The guests gradually said goodbye, Fan Dajian saw off the guests on his behalf, and Yuan Mao helped Hu Guiyang to the next room to rest for a while.
"I've never seen Captain Hu drink so much wine." Yuan Mao said with a smile.
"Who knew there would be so many guests? I don't know a lot of them, and I can't name them now, so I have to drink a little more, and they'll forgive me for my faux pas. ”
"Haha, that's a clever move."
Hu Guiyang slumped in his chair and squinted at Yuan Mao, "You're not just here to congratulate you today, but you're also a lobbyist in the East Palace, right?" ”
"I can't hide anything from Captain Hu, not only the East Palace, but also Eunuch Huai, he asked me to remind Captain Hu that you promised him ......"
"Tell me first, what are the plans of the emperor and He Sanchen?"
"I'm an outsider, so I have no way of knowing."
"It's okay to give me a little 'supposed.'"
"It is said that the Gunpowder Bureau was expanded, and in the name of making medicines, it rushed to produce a huge receiver that had never been seen before."
"Hmm." This is consistent with what Hu Guiyang heard from He Sanchen.
"It is also said that this is just a trial production, and if it is successful, it will be necessary to build a larger and stronger casing, which can only be driven by Shenyu."
"How long?"
"Two years of trial construction, four years of reconstruction, a total of six years, just in time for the arrival of the heavenly machine."
"You know when the Heavenly Machine Ship will come?"
"Ten cycles, that is, ten years, it is said that this is the time that He Sanchen interpreted, a few days ago, someone dreamed of this number, I haven't ...... Captain Hu, don't sleep yet. ”
Hu Guiyang was sliding towards the ground and hurriedly sat up straight, "I'm sorry, I haven't slept for long, and I'm even more sleepy when I drink." Well, I understand, in another six years, the Heavenly Machine Ship will come, where will it come? ”
"Of course, it is the place where the 'seeds' gather, that is, the capital."
Most of the people involved in the Yunyang Mansion were officers and soldiers, and the emperor could easily keep them in the capital.
"Hmm." Hu Guiyang became more and more sleepy, and while there was still a glimmer of sobriety, he said: "Please tell the East Palace and Eunuch Huai, the earth fire can't destroy the Shenyu, I will find another way, and the Shenyu will be placed here for the time being......"
Hu Guiyang fell asleep.
Yuan Mao shook his head helplessly, he was not surprised by Hu Guiyang's behavior, he both admired and felt incredible, thinking that if this person could change his mistakes and use more snacks, his achievements would definitely be limitless, and he would not be just a captain in brocade.
Fan Dajian pushed the door in, "The guest is almost gone...... He's sleeping here? ”
"Hand him up and carry him back to the backyard."
"You told him to understand?"
"Well, he won't hand over the divine jade, and he will have to find another way to destroy the jade."
"Hey, Hu Guiyang has always advocated resisting the heavenly machine ship, and will never recognize it as a god ship. He Sanchen claimed to have discovered the weakness of the Heavenly Machine Ship and wanted to build a machine box to seize the divine power of the whole ship, wouldn't it be in the arms of Hu Guiyang? I think he's joined. ”
"We're only responsible for passing the word, and don't worry about anything else."
Yuan Mao grabbed one of Hu Guiyang's arms, Fan Dajian held the other, and suddenly an idea flashed in his heart, and he whispered: "He drank too much, Shenyu may be on him......"
Yuan Mao shook his head, "Don't even think about it, you and I have neither the ability to find out the truth, nor the ability to resist the temptation of Shenyu, so let's have fewer crooked thoughts." ”
Fan Dajian looked dissatisfied, "Why do you always think of the two of us as so weak?" Having said that, he didn't stretch out his hand, but picked up Hu Guiyang with Yuan Mao and dragged him out.
When he got outside, the cold wind blew, and Hu Guiyang woke up, "Hey, why am I floating?" Oh, it's the two of you, let's go, let's go drink again. ”
"Everyone is gone, what are you going to drink?" Fan Dajian let go of his hand, "The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, you go and see the new daughter-in-law, we don't dare to keep you, Xiaocao will come to us with a chain gun to settle accounts, who can stop her?" ”
"Haha, that's right, her chain gun is unbeatable." Hu Guiyang staggered to the cave room in the backyard.
Looking at Hu Guiyang's back, Fan Dajian sighed, "It's good to be friends with you, but you can't play tricks, it's more unpleasant." ”
"You play tricks, others also play, do you dare to say that you win every time?"
Fan Dajian sighed again, "Okay, let's go and talk back, the credit is gone, just don't offend people." ”
The two sent off the last few drunken guests, found Lao Qiang to ask them to close the door, and said goodbye themselves.
Hu Guiyang pushed the door into the house and found that Xiaocao was not the only one in the house.
Bee Niang was a little confused, only Luo Shi could understand what she said, and her identity in Zhao's house was unclear, so she was not invited over at the wedding.
The bee girl didn't care, she lived in the east courtyard and concentrated on teasing the dog, and tonight she ran out at some point, and actually entered the cave room, chatted with Xiaocao, and checked her jewelry one by one, and the big cake followed her feet, and occasionally stuck out her tongue at the bride to show her favor.
"Can you understand her?" Hu Guiyang asked in surprise.
"I don't understand, but I'm happy to see her happy." Xiaocao smiled.
"She stayed here and didn't want to take over my dog, I didn't mean to stay." Hu Guiyang explained.
"How do you rely here? You forget, back then, she boarded the Tianji ship with us and took the Tianji Pill, and I used to be as confused as her. She must stay, I recognize her as a sister, she seems to call me sister. ”
"Hehe, it's good if you're happy. How long is she going to be here? ”
"Stay there forever."
"I mean how long to stay in this room, this is our cave room......"
The bee girl picked up a phoenix hairpin and said something.
"I gave it to you." Xiaocao took the phoenix hairpin and stuck it on the head of the bee girl, the bee girl happily turned around, the cake followed the circle, and the grass also turned around, "Do you remember the dance that Ah Yin taught you?" ”
Hu Guiyang was stunned for a while before he said, "Then I'll sleep on the chair." ”
"Brother Hu, I'm really sorry, I can't bear to see her so happy."
"It's okay, I can sleep no matter what." Hu Guiyang fell asleep on the table, and vaguely saw Xiaocao and the bee girl dancing in circles.
When I woke up, the sky was bright again, Hu Guiyang was lying on the bed, Xiaocao and Bee Niang were no longer there.
"What's going on?" Hu Guiyang muttered, many people covet Shenyu, but he only cares about one thing: Xiaocao is obviously willing to marry her, why is he unwilling to share a bed?
