Half an hour later, Shen Qi got off the boat with Jiu'er. The scene in front of him refreshed Shen Qi's cognition.

There are two long causeways on the side of the ferry, and more than 30 wooden boats of all sizes are moored in the wide river on both sides of the long causeway. There was a shout of hawking along the causeway, and the wide stone steps were lined with stalls and vendors.

At the end of the stairs stands a tall stone archway, on which four big characters are written "Tianxia Ferry".

"This ...... It's completely different from Yunling Ferry!" Shen Qi looked at the bustling crowd in shock.

Jiu'er patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young man, your experience is still not enough! Fengtianzhou's water transportation is a must in Dayi, and this Tianxia ferry port is the largest ferry port in Fengtianzhou, and there are not a hundred but eighty ships coming and going every day. ”

Shen Qi nodded silently, his expression full of excitement.

"Let's go, little Shen Qi! Sister will take you around this Tianxia Town. Jiu'er smiled and took Shen Qi's hand.

"Tianxia Town?" Shen Qi couldn't help but be a little puzzled, wasn't it Tianxia Ferry, how did it become Tianxia Town again?

Jiu'er pulled Shen Qi around in front of different stalls and explained: "Originally, there was only Tianxia Ferry here. However, with the increase of ships coming and going, the water transportation in Fengtianzhou slowly developed, and the imperial court specially cultivated a large area of land near the Tianxia ferry, and then rented the land to those poor farmers at a very low price, and gradually more and more people settled in the vicinity. Over time, it slowly became a village. To this day, it is the town of Tianxia that you see. ”

"I see. Shen Qi nodded, his eyes fixed on the sugar gourd stall on the side.

"Boss, how do you sell sugar gourds?" Shen Qi asked with a smile.

"Six cents for one string, ten cents for two!" replied the boss.

Shen Qi nodded, the price was quite cost-effective, so he took out ten cents and said, "Two strings!"

"Okay," the boss said, taking the money, "you can choose for yourself." ”

Shen Qi smiled and chose two strings of sugar gourds that looked the largest and redtest, and then handed them over to Jiu'er.

"Xiao Shen Qi, don't you want to eat?" Jiu'er couldn't help but be stunned.

Shen Qi smiled and said, "I'll watch you eat." ”

Jiu'er couldn't help but blush, and said, "Then how can it be done, good things have to be shared." ”

With that, Jiu'er stuffed one of the sugar gourds into Shen Qi's hand, and turned around embarrassedly and walked towards the other stalls.

"You are really blessed!" The owner of the sugar gourd stall smiled: "Your wife is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she will definitely be blessed by God, and she will be blessed with longevity and health!"

Shen Qi grinned, thanked the boss, and smiled in his heart.

"Madame...... Hey hey ......"

Quickly keeping up with Jiu'er's pace, Shen Qi looked at Jiu'er's back, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

After a while, the two walked to a rouge gouache stall, and Jiu'er couldn't help but stop and look at the rouge box in the stall.

The stall owner was a woman in her thirties, plump and ruddy.

As soon as he saw Jiu'er stop, the owner of the rouge stall took out a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Jiu'er, saying, "Girl, let's take a look." The new "Hibiscus Tears" of the Great Departure Country "Shui Li Tang". ”

"Fleur tears?" Hearing this name, Jiu'er couldn't help but be stunned.

The stall owner covered his mouth and chuckled: "Does the girl rarely use rouge gouache? This 'hibiscus tears' are delicate and natural, slippery but not oily, and are the best creamy rouge!"

Jiu'er was a little moved, but the cyan porcelain vase couldn't wait to be opened.

Seeing this, the stall owner continued to explain: "Ordinary rouge is not so clean, and the color is thin. This 'hibiscus tears' is made by wringing out the juice of the best safflower, cleaning it up, and then slowly steaming it with flower dew. It can be used to paint lips and faces, not only the color is gorgeous, but the fragrance is also a must!"

Hearing the boss say this, Jiu'er hesitated a little, "This sister, how many silver taels does this 'Hibiscus Tears' cost?"

When the stall owner heard Jiu'er ask about the price, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Only ten taels of silver." ”

Jiu'er chuckled in her heart.

Ten taels? I can only buy a good sword for this price, right?

Jiu'er suddenly lost interest and slowly put the porcelain vase in her hand back.

But Shen Qi on the side quickly took out a silver ticket worth ten taels from his arms and handed it to the stall owner, and then said, "I bought it!"

The stall owner was stunned at first, then smiled and put away the silver ticket, handed the cyan porcelain vase to Jiu'er, and said, "Girl, you are really open-minded! He treats you so well, sister, I envy you so much!"

Jiu'er turned the porcelain vase, her face suddenly turned red, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "What...... What is the fairness, we ...... We didn't ......"

Shen Qi smiled and took Jiu'er's hand and smiled at the stall owner: "This sister, we are not married yet, and we are not considered to be husband and wife." ”

The stall owner smiled and waved his hand, and said: "The two talented women are a match made in heaven, sooner or later, sooner or later!"

Shen Qi smiled, looking extremely proud, took Jiu'er's hand and continued to walk forward.

Jiu'er was blushing, lowering her head and not daring to look at Shen Qi, but followed him step by step.

Watching Shen Qi and Jiu'er leave, the stall owner's smile gradually faded, she pursed her lips and whispered to herself: "It's really ...... to dare to hold hands in broad daylight before getting married." The world is declining, and people's hearts are not ancient......"

Just as they were walking a short distance, Shen Qi and Jiu'er suddenly heard the sound of cheering in front of them, and Shen Qi hurriedly took Jiu'er's hand and wanted to go over and take a look.

Suddenly, there was a burst of exclamations in the crowd, and Shen Qi only felt that a yellow shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to block it.

The next moment, the yellow shadow stopped and looked at him with some curiosity.

"Ah, it's a little monkey!" Jiu'er snorted, then smiled and tried to get closer.

"Little monkey?" Shen Qi was stunned, and then stared at the yellow figure with some curiosity.

Shen Qi had never seen a monkey, so when he saw the yellow and fluffy little guy in front of him, he instinctively was a little vigilant.

But before Shen Qi and Jiu'er could react, a loud whistle sounded.

The little monkey glanced at Shen Qi, and then jumped towards the crowd of onlookers.

"Little monkey!" Jiu'er screamed, then pulled Shen Qi's sleeve and said, "Little Shen Qi, let's go!"

"What are you looking at?" Shen Qi was stunned and scratched his head a little dazedly.

"Of course it's a monkey show!" Jiu'er smiled: "Don't you see that little monkey? It's raised by someone and can perform!"

Shen Qi became interested when he heard this, and squeezed into the crowd with a smile.

In the center of the crowd, there was an emaciated man in his thirties, who was talking something at this time, and the little monkey he had just seen was looking at him and making some strange movements.

"Little Liu'er, somersault, go!"

With a command from the emaciated man, the little monkey jumped suddenly, flipped in the air, and then landed steadily.

"Good!"

There was a cheer from the crowd, and Shen Qi also watched the little monkey perform with a smile on his face.

"Little Liu'er, handstand, go!"

Immediately, the little monkey put his hands on the ground, and his body stood upside down all of a sudden.

"Little Liu'er, soar through the clouds, go!"

The little monkey glanced at the emaciated man, then leaped, and then put on a not-so-standard 'white crane with bright wings', which caused the audience to burst into laughter.

"Little Liu'er, the action is wrong!" The emaciated man frowned and said, "This is not 'Soaring Clouds and Fog', this is 'White Crane Bright Wings'!"

Who knows, the little monkey suddenly jumped behind the emaciated man, raised his hand and slapped him on the back, and then turned his head "angrily".

"Haha......"

"Good!"

"Little Liu'er played well!"

"Little Liu'er is awesome!"

The little monkey's antics drew laughter from the surrounding audience.

Shen Qi also grinned and glanced at Jiu'er.

Who knew that Jiu'er's eyes had been fixed on the emaciated man.

Probably feeling Jiu'er's gaze, the emaciated man glanced at Jiu'er.

I saw that he looked stunned, turned his head around, and continued to tease the little monkey.

Shen Qi saw it in his eyes, but he was very puzzled in his heart.

Does this emaciated man know Jiu'er?

Glancing at Jiu'er silently, Shen Qi somehow felt uncomfortable in his heart.

It may be because Jiu'er is there, and the emaciated man only performed for less than half an hour before hurriedly closing the stall.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Shen Qi wanted to pull Jiu'er away, but who knew that Jiu'er walked towards the emaciated man.

"Third Senior Brother Hou, is that you?" asked Jiu'er in a low voice.

Hou San...... Brother?

Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned, this emaciated man was also a disciple of Xuanjiawei?

The emaciated man was facing away from Jiu'er at the moment, and when he heard that his body was obviously shocked, he didn't turn around, but turned his back to Jiu'er and smiled bitterly, and said, "Senior sister Jiu'er, long time no see." I didn't expect me to hide here, but I still can't avoid it. ”

Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately understood that this emaciated man was indeed the "Third Senior Brother Hou" in Jiu'er's mouth.

Shen Qi was inexplicably a little surprised in his heart, he hurriedly took two steps forward and quietly blocked in front of Jiu'er.

The emaciated man Hou San slowly turned around, glanced at Jiu'er, then at Shen Qi, and said with a slight smile: "This is my brother-in-law, right?"

Brother-in-law?

Shen Qi's expression moved, and he immediately understood. He immediately put away his hostility, arched his hand to Hou San with a smile, and said, "Senior Brother Hou San, in Xia Shen Qi." He is also a disciple of Xuanjiawei. ”

Jiu'er wanted to argue, but she couldn't say anything when the words came to her mouth.

Hou San arched his hand to Shen Qi with a smile and said, "Xuanjiawei abandoned the disciple Hou San, I have seen Brother Shen. ”

Outcasts?

No wonder he knew that I was a disciple of Xuanjiawei and refused to call me a junior brother, so that's the case.

"Senior Brother Hou, why are you doing this, you know that Master is ...... him," Jiu'er said busily.

"Senior Sister Jiu'er. Hou San interrupted Jiu'er's words and said softly: "I am no longer a disciple of Xuanjiawei, Master...... Respect his old man is kind-hearted, so naturally he will not be harsh on me. It's just that I feel guilty, and that's why ...... It's all in the past, so don't mention it again. ”

Jiu'er wanted to say something, but Hou San waved his hand, glanced at Shen Qi, and then said softly, "Senior Sister Jiu'er...... Are you and your brother-in-law married?"

Jiu'er blushed and shook her head.

Hou San was slightly stunned, and then said: "I think my brother-in-law dares to take the initiative to protect you, and he should be a reliable person." When you are empty, go to the famous teacher...... Respect him as an old man, and then get married as soon as possible!"

Jiu'er's face turned red, but Shen Qi heard a little bit of the doorway.

This Hou San should have no bad intentions, but why did he specifically ask us to get married as soon as possible?

Hou San opened his mouth, pondered for a while, and said, "Senior sister Jiu'er, brother-in-law...... Do you know about your marriage?"

"What?

Shen Qi opened his mouth wide and looked at Jiu'er with a tangled face in disbelief.
