Marry the first wife

Chapter 55 The Big Bug

Standing on the river, Fu Yao looked at the boat rowing towards her.

Once upon a time, she could be considered a Jiangnan person, but later she followed her father and became a native of Beijing. The shadow of a boat often appears in dreams, but its true face has never been seen.

I never thought that meeting me today would be a new experience.

Although the Silent River Port is not as majestic as the big rivers, it alone tells the sorrow of an era. It is said that the previous dynasty spent countless manpower and material resources and countless gold and silver treasures to build the inland river.

There are also countless people with lofty ideals who calmly die by the river, choosing their own morality.

Now, she is standing on the bank of the river, her mind is particularly open, without the caution and intrigues of the past, there is nothing left, and she is washed clean by the silent river water.

"What are you thinking about?" Fu Weiyuan saw his sister staring blankly at the river. Her gentle and dark pupils seemed to blend with the water of the river, and the two merged into one.

"Third brother, what do you think is inside the river?" Is it as clear as the river water, not stained by any dirt, and a pure land of its own?

"Of course there are fish in the rivers, otherwise how did the grass carp, crucian carp, etc. that Yaoyao eat come from?" Fu Weiyuan looked at the depressed Fu Yao with interest, trying to wake up her high mood.

Fu Yao pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and responded: "The third brother is right, there are indeed all kinds of fish and shrimps in it. I heard that there are worm-like prawns in the south of the Yangtze River. I don't know the taste." How about it?"

Shen Zhaoxian, who was standing aside, frowned when Fu Yao mentioned the worm-like prawns and said coldly: "That one is not delicious at all." At least, that was the case when he left.

"Brother Shen, what do you mean by this?" Fu Weiyuan looked at Shen Zhaoxian in confusion.

Fu Yao nodded. She heard about these insect-like prawns from others when she went out occasionally. Since it has spread to Shangjing, these shrimps must be delicious. How can they be unpalatable?

A complicated expression appeared on Shen Zhaoxian's face. He took a deep breath and explained: "The shell of that big insect is really hard and will not break easily. It also has two claws like pliers, which is really uncomfortable."

"Besides, the shrimp can't be eaten grilled. When steamed, it smells fishy, ​​making it even more unpalatable."

After hearing Shen Zhaoxian's unpredictable description, Fu Yao frowned and tried to imagine in her mind that the prawn had two large pincers and a hard shell. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of a reason.

"Mr. Shen, since you said so, have you ever eaten this strange big insect?" Fu Yao grasped the key to the problem very keenly.

Shen Zhaoxian nodded and said, "I have indeed eaten it." A flash of panic flashed in his eyes.

"Third Young Master, send someone over there to tell you that everything on the boat is ready. Please come on board, Young Master." A young man bowed his head and said respectfully.

"Get on the boat, Yaoyao." Fu Weiyuan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Fu Yao took the first step.

Then he turned to look at Shen Zhaoxian and raised the corners of his lips slightly. Stretching one hand in the direction of the ship, "Mr. Shen, please."

Shen Zhaoxian nodded and followed Fu Yao. After a while, he looked at the bumpy back of the big girl in front of him, his heart trembling slightly with slight excitement.

After a while, he looked at the calm river surface to ease the unspeakable thoughts in his heart. Even so, he couldn't stop looking at the person walking in front of him out of the corner of his eye.

Fortunately, this period was not too far away, only less than a quarter of an hour. Shen Zhaoxian's heart was already in a state of turmoil, but he could not tell anyone.

The sun at noon is the most comfortable. The warm sunshine shines on the body. With a chair, lying in the middle of the courtyard, following the sun setting, and a pot of good tea, life is not a bad day. It's a pity that Fu Yao doesn't feel at all happy about the warm sunshine in winter. On the contrary, the swaying ship makes people feel nauseous.

It wasn't the boat that made her feel sick, it was her churning stomach that made her feel sick.

A layer of mist appeared in his eyes, and he held his neck with one hand. He wanted to vomit but couldn't. The feeling was really uncomfortable.

"Girl, maybe you'll feel better if you eat something?"

Hearing that she wanted to eat, Fu Yao quickly waved her hands. Gu Yu was concerned but confused. She had already vomited so much that she could only eat after vomiting.

"I'm fine." He took the handkerchief from Gu Yu and wiped the corners of his mouth with a low voice, "Gu Yu, go see if there are any fresh fruits in the kitchen on board the ship, preferably the kind with the skin on. .”

Gu Yu responded and turned around to go out. After a while, he came back with a plate of oranges.

Fu Yao took an orange from above, peeled it, and put it on the tip of her nose. The fresh smell hit her face, and her tumbling stomach seemed to be soothed.

"Girl, why are you looking for fruits with skin? Isn't it good to eat them?" Gu Yu asked confused.

Fu Yao shook her head and explained: "Although it is okay to eat, there will eventually be a time when you are full of wine and food. At that time, it will just be a repetition of the previous lessons."

Gu Yu nodded in understanding.

In this way, she spent the next few days relying on a thin piece of orange peel.

Standing on the pier, with the fresh air filling her nose, Fu Yao felt that she had lived a new life for the rest of her life.

I shook my body and walked quickly to the carriage that came to greet me. The winter in the south was dozens of times colder than in Beijing, and it was more dry and cold in the north. In the south, it is damp and cold, and the biting cold wind makes people unable to escape.

After rubbing their hands together, their thumbs and index fingers intertwined and pinched on their earlobes, the master and servant looked at each other and smiled.

"Girl, how many more days do we have to walk?" Gu Yu opened the car curtain and took a look outside.

Fu Yao sat on the carriage, folding her hands together and hiding under her cloak, "What do you think?"

Guyu looked bitter and whispered, "I can't guess this."

Fu Yao smiled slightly and said, "I haven't been here for a few hours. My father is from Xiaojiangnan. He has made a living by the river for generations."

Our ancestors have lived by the river for generations. For my father to be able to follow Your Majesty and obtain the wealth and glory he has now, the right time, right location, people and people are all indispensable.

Especially because of the favorable location and the close proximity to the river, it was logical to know the news that His Majesty had launched an army today.

As soon as the words fell, Fu Yao slowly closed her eyes. She was very busy next. When she just got off the boat, the third brother let herself have the news for a while.

Otherwise, when she arrived at her father's place, she would have to visit some relatives. Although they were relatives, she had never seen them before. She wondered what his temperament was like and how he treated others.
La la la, let’s live together.
