Chapter 20: Good Omen
Closing the door, Zhu Yanqu looked at the closed door, his eyes slightly darkened.
Since I have the idea of living for a long time, the bamboo house is not safe, so I have to build another house.
Cheung Tak Street.
The streets were filled with laughter and laughter.
Zhu Yanqu walked straight forward, unaffected by the surrounding things.
When I came in the morning, I went from the street to the Quzhou Qianzhuang in the center of the street.
I haven't seen any shops about white things.
Looking around, I saw a banner with the words "All Things Go Best" and "Incense".
Just as he was about to move forward, he heard a peaceful voice behind him.
"I wish the girl."
When I turned around, I saw Xi Quan walking briskly in the dazzling sun.
When he was a few steps away from him, he looked at him quietly.
"I've got something to look for you."
Xi Quan directly explained the intention.
"I'm going to the Everything-Smooth Incense Shop now."
Xi Quan took a few steps back and shouted angrily towards Quzhou Qianzhuang.
"Brother Qiu, come out for a while."
Listen only to the sound of small footsteps.
The gate was opened, and a middle-aged man came out of it.
Dressed in coarse linen clothes, his steps are brisk.
He just came out, and he hasn't walked to Xi Quan's side yet.
A dozen young men came out behind him, thinking that something had happened.
"Brother Qiu, I wish the girl to go to your shop."
Qiu Yan hurriedly raised his eyes, and only then did he take his eyes off Xi Quan and go to see Zhu Yanqu who was waiting there.
"What's the matter?"
"Write tablets for deceased family members." Zhu Yanqu looked directly at Qiu Yan.
"Hmm." Qiu Yan nodded, "Girl, provide me with the birth date and day of the deceased, and I will arrange for the master in the store to make it for you." ”
Since it was Xi Quan who asked him to come out, it was Xi Quan who valued him and couldn't be lazy.
After mentioning this, suddenly, Zhu Yanqu thought of something.
The historical time is separated by hundreds of years, and if he knows that it is 1948, it will be not good for himself and his children.
It's confusing.
"I ...... Forget their birthdays, wait until I remember, and do it again! ”
Zhu Yanqu looked slightly flustered.
Qiu Yan hesitated for a moment, and first went to see Xi Quan.
"Then when I think about it, I'll trouble Brother Qiu Gong again, I still have something to do with Miss Zhu."
Hearing this, after looking at Xi Quan's eyes, Qiu Gong arched his hand:
"That'...... I wish the girl, when you think about it, tell me again, I will do it for you. ”
Zhu Yanqu looked at the small movements between them, and pinched the thin strap of the cloth bag he was carrying.
Xi Quan's gaze returned to Zhu Yanqu, sensing her nervousness.
The voice was gentle: "Girl, please move to the money village and talk in detail." ”
Zhu Yanqu frowned and looked at the dozen or so onlookers standing at the door.
"You haven't said what the hell is going on with me."
Xi Quan looked at her with slightly biased eyes.
Turning his eyes to look at the people at the door, he introduced to Zhu Yanqu:
"They are businessmen from Ninghuai County, and they are studying the jade lotus root and taro that the girl once mentioned."
Xi Quan smiled helplessly: "I won't tell you, we've heard both of these things." ”
Xi Quan's voice fell, capturing the accident that flashed on Zhu Yan's surface.
He said slowly: "Only Jiangning Mansion got some seed roots, and before the harvest day, it encountered a major drought. ”
Zhu Yanqu's brows furrowed, and his palms were so tense that he sweated.
Thinking of what I said that day, I regret it.
There was a look of regret in Xi Quan's eyes:
"It's a pity that I read the letter sent by the prefect of Jiangning Prefecture, but I really can't draw it based on that bit of text description alone."
"No."
His eyes shifted to the group of merchants standing in the doorway, with a golden glow in their eyes.
and Qiu Li, who showed surprise in his eyes.
"They all gathered in one place, and a lot of drawings were made, and they all felt different."
Zhu Yanqu's slightly white lips moved slightly, as if he was about to say something.
But he tightened his eyes and looked at Xi Quan.
Seeing that she didn't say a word, Xi Quan sighed in his heart and spoke softly.
"I happened to see the girl passing by, thinking that the girl was from Jiangning Mansion, so I bothered the girl. I also bothered to point out a thing or two. ”
Zhu Yanqu lowered his eyes and saw Xi Quan's figure being pulled in the bright sun.
"Hmm." Zhu Yanqu's mind was clouded by the high heat, nodded slightly, and took a step.
Seeing this, Xi Quan led the way in front.
The young people gathered at the gate all dispersed and arrived under the bamboo pavilion in the courtyard.
Zhu Yanqu just sat down on the bamboo chair, and Xi Yao came over to serve warm tea.
I brought some wild hawthorns picked in the mountains, red and plump, stained with water droplets.
and the light red color, plump, and oval March fruit.
The fragrance of flowers wafts from the tea cup.
Xi Quan sat down opposite the stone table, and saw Zhu Yanqu sitting upright and looking quiet.
As soon as he raised his hand, a pile of bamboo and linen paper floating with inky dust arrived in his hand.
Set the paper on the stone table and spread it out gently.
It shows jade lotus root with different shapes and taro drawings.
Zhu Yanqu raised her eyes and looked, there was no one who knew her who could match.
Zhu Yanqu calmly raised his eyes to look at him: "What do you need me to do?" ”
Zhu Yanqu asked directly, looking directly into Xi Quan's smiling eyes.
Then he slowly moved away, not daring to look at him.
"I think I need a girl to lead the way."
"No, I'm not at ease when the child is at home." Zhu Yanqu directly refused.
Xi Quanyun was light: "The child is with me, and I will arrange for someone to show you." ”
Zhu Yanqu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and when he saw Xi Quan, he turned his eyes to look elsewhere.
After seeing him retract his gaze, his tone was heavy: "Don't worry about food and temporary accommodation back and forth." ”
Xi Quan once thought that in this life, he could no longer follow the route of his previous life.
But somehow, he still used the way he did to her in his previous life.
When he looked at Zhu Yanqu, his eyes were full of softness.
His eyes gradually fell on the wild hawthorn and March fruit on the table.
It's really evil.
Before Zhu Yanqu appeared, this wild hawthorn and March fruit had no shadow at all.
But after she appeared, especially in the mountains behind the bamboo forest, she found seedlings of those types of crops.
Wild hawthorn, wild persimmon, mulberry, jasmine, and many other species have appeared one after another.
After several days of surveying, I found a variety of wild crops.
After she came, the valleys grew by themselves, and all things appeared.
Good signs!
Seeing that Zhu Yanqu didn't speak, he picked up the teacup.
Zhu Yanqu, who had a solemn face, whispered.
"What do you think?"
Zhu Yanqu was upset.
It was the wild hawthorn that I saw on the stone table.
and have seen the wild fruit called goat's milk fruit, which is also called March fruit here.
and the refreshing floral fragrance wafting from the cup.
She tried to calm herself down.
Zhu Yanqu looked at the dozen men standing behind him out of the corner of his eye.
Several of them have seen it, and their faces are very serious.
Zhu Yanqu pursed his thin lips, slowly deepened his hands, and put them on the edge of the stone table, his body was very stiff.
Even the tone was panicked.
"It's been so long, I can't guarantee that someone will take the lead and we won't get anything from running empty?"
