Chapter Forty-Nine: The Departure of Guo Axe
[PS: Kill Xiaoqiang, break out in ten chapters!Kill, kill, kill, kill the first on the new book list!!]
The two returned to Wanjia East Courtyard and did not say anything for a day.
Most of the time, Guo Axe bowed his head in contemplation, and occasionally stood up and walked around, with an anxious look on his face.
In the evening, Guo Axe went out of the east courtyard, and then went to the west courtyard, and it was dark when he returned to the east courtyard.
"Zhao Yuan, this is the money I owe you. Guo Axe took out a large pile of imperial coins from his pocket, at least tens of thousands.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Yuan looked at Guo Axe, who counted 1510 imperial coins, and asked with a frown.
"I'm leaving. Guo Axe looked at Zhao Yuan.
"Where are you going?" Zhao Yuan's body was shocked, he knew that Guo Axe had made up his mind, and he could feel his determination from the fact that he went to the West Courtyard to settle his wages for several years at one time.
"Go to the capital city to study. Guo axe word by word.
"Why do you want to go to the capital? In the East Courtyard, I can also teach you. ”
"How long can you teach me?"
"......" Zhao Yuan was speechless for a moment.
"Lotus said that I have to read, and she will accompany me to read. Guo Axe looked serious.
"Yes, reading is a must. But, do you believe in lotus?" Zhao Yuan looked at Guo Axe, he felt that Guo Axe's decision was a bit unreasonable, after all, he and Lotus had only met twice.
"I believe in her. ”
"Well, that's fine. By the way, keep the money and belongings by yourself. ”
"Zhao Yuan, I know that you are worried about me, I understand that Lotus will not cheat me out of my money, and besides, this money is not worth her cheating. Guo Axe had a sincere smile on his face.
"Yes. Zhao Yuan looked at the imperial coin on Guo Axe's chest and smiled bitterly. The axe is right, although Lotus is not a high-class prostitute, she will not care about such tens of thousands of imperial coins.
"Zhao Yuan, I'm leaving, take care. Guo Axe got up.
"What! now?!" Zhao Yuan looked at Guo Axe dumbfounded, he couldn't imagine that Guo Axe would make such a hasty decision.
"Yes. ”
"Take care, by the way, you lead a bantam horse, bring some dry food and warm clothes, you are strong and strong, and the girl's family can't stand the cold." I will talk to Jia Deaf, count my account, this bantam, even if I Zhao Yuan is strong for you. ”
"Thank you, Zhao Yuan. Guo Axe looked at Zhao Yuan with a grateful face, he knew that the value of a bantam horse was at least five thousand imperial coins, and this amount, whether it was for him or Zhao Yuan, was a large amount.
"We are brothers. ”
"Yes, forever brother. ”
……
After Zhao Yuan communicated with Jia Deaf for a while, he led a bantam horse, and gave Guo Axe a set of his warm cotton clothes and bedding to put on the horse, sent Guo Axe to the door, and negotiated with Mr. Seven again.
"Axe, you wait. Seeing Guo Axe lead the horse away, Zhao Yuan suddenly shouted.
"Hmm. ”
Zhao Yuan rushed to the kitchen and found the heavy iron axe.
"Take this, and if anyone bullies you and the lotus, use this axe. ”
"Well, whoever dares to bully and lotus, I will chop him like a fly!"
"Yes, when the flies split. ”
Zhao Yuan laughed, Guo Axe laughed, and the bold laughter echoed at the end of the empty East Street, diluting the gloom and melancholy of separation. The laughter infected the old-eyed Mr. Seven, who also snuggled against the door and giggled.
Zhao Yuan sent Guo Axe all the way to the wilderness at the end of Dongjie, where he saw lotus flowers and the orchid that saw them off.
Guo Axe helped the lotus onto the bantam horse, and wrapped the body of the lotus with the cotton clothes given by Zhao Yuan, and then, carrying the heavy iron axe, waved his hand at Zhao Yuan, and strode on the road, and soon, in the wind and snow, only a winding footprint was left......
……
"What does the axe do make the lotus so fascinated?" Seeing the bantam staggering away with the lotus, Youlan said softly.
"Because, the axe is worth her trust. "Zhao Yuan cut the railway.
"Definitely?"
"Definitely!"
"If I were willing to go with you, would you go with me?" asked Yulan suddenly.
“……”
"Don't take it seriously, I'm just joking, joking. I know that you won't be willing, you are not Guo Axe, you are Zhao Yuan, and you will not be born with an ordinary Zhao Yuan. What's more, even if you agree, I don't have the courage, I don't have the courage to ......"
Youlan didn't look at Zhao Yuan's eyes, lowered her head and muttered, her long cloak wrapped her graceful body, and walked back to Wanfu Inn alone in the wind and snow.
Wind and dust women also have dreams.
The night of the first day of the new year, quiet, vicissitudes, melancholy......
Zhao Yuan sat in the kitchen to roast the fire, without Guo Axe's east courtyard, Zhao Yuan felt that he was surrounded by loneliness, and the huge east courtyard became more and more empty. It was only at this time that he realized how important Guo Axe was in his heart.
Inexplicably, Zhao Yuan thought of Wan Ling'er.
Presumably at this time, Wan Ling'er should be with his family to bake the fire, Zhao Yuan subconsciously glanced at the night sky outside the window, and suddenly, Zhao Yuan stood up, he saw two streamers falling from the sky, judging from the direction, it should have entered the West Courtyard.
It's Wan Ling'er.
Zhao Yuan was too familiar with the cold streamer emitted by Wan Ling'er's Ice Divine Sword when it was flying.
Today, on the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, why didn't Wan Ling'er stay at home and sleep?
Could it be that Wan Ziyu had an accident?
Almost immediately, Zhao Yuan thought of Wan Ziyu. When the mob attacked a few days ago, Wan Ziyu, who should have appeared, did not appear, and the red envelopes distributed as usual in the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve did not appear, all of which seemed to indicate that something big had happened to the Wanjia family.
What could have happened?
Zhao Yuan was a little anxious, but he couldn't do anything, because he was not a cultivator, if Wan Ziyu couldn't solve the problem himself, then surely, he couldn't solve it.
This night, Zhao Yuan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and it wasn't until dawn that he fell asleep in a daze.
It was Jia Deaf who woke up Zhao Yuan.
Because of Guo Axe's resignation, no one in the East Courtyard cooked, and Zhu Dacang saw that there were only two porters and four deaf people in the East Courtyard, and it was inconvenient to deliver food on this cold day, so he simply asked them to eat in the kitchen of the West Courtyard.
This is the second time Zhao Yuan has eaten in the kitchen of the West Courtyard, and the first time is when Xu San took him here for breakfast.
There are not many people in the West Courtyard, most of them went home for the New Year, and even Xu San didn't see it. The people in the West Courtyard were very enthusiastic about Zhao Yuan, and Zhao Yuan was not left out in the cold, and soon mingled with everyone.
"Have the lord and lady eaten?" Just as everyone was chatting about whether they had a match or not, Zhao Yuan pretended to have no intention of asking. This kitchen is responsible for the food of Wanjia, and from here, you can know the movements of Wanjia at the first time.
"Recently, only Madame has eaten alone, but this morning, I prepared a portion for three people, and it should be that the master and the young lady have eaten together. ”
Some of the maids' visions of Wan Jia are no longer strange, because Wan Ziyu often retreats for months without a trace, and Wan Ling'er is also a dragon who sees the head but does not see the end, and it is normal for the Chen family to eat alone.
Of course, this is a bit unusual for Zhao Yuan.
It is now certain that Wan Ling'er only came home last night and brought someone with her. At the same time, Zhao Yuan was sure that that person would never be Wan Ziyu, although it was night, but it was a snowy night, and some outlines could still be seen, the person who flew side by side with Wan Ling'er was petite, completely different from the tall Wan Ziyu, and should be a woman.
Obviously, the two extra breakfasts prepared today should be Wan Ling'er and another Edgeworth flying woman.
Who could that person be?
Who will rush to Wanjia on the first day of the Lunar New Year?
After breakfast, Zhao Yuan returned to the East Courtyard, and Zhao Yuan, who had nothing to do, practiced "Ten Thousand Enemies" in the room for a while, feeling a little impetuous, unable to calm down, so he simply went out for a walk.
According to the custom of the Great Qin Empire, the practice of staying at home on the first day of the Lunar New Year is to stay at home. And today is the second year of junior high school, everyone no longer has to abide by the customs, Xujiaqiao is a lot more prosperous, many children on the street are blowing firecrackers, snowball fights and building snowmen, laughter, crying, scolding and scolding are all together, so lively.
Fortunately, although the people of Xujiaqiao all know Zhao Yuan's name, few people have seen Zhao Yuan, and Zhao Yuan walks on the street, but he doesn't have to worry about being recognized.
