They didn't find Yu Zuimei until the morning of the 24th when they left for Liangzhou.

Huo Huaian's people checked in Suizhou City, but no one had seen Yu Zuimei.But the waiter in a teahouse not far from the General's Mansion remembered that Yu Zuimei came in as soon as they opened that morning, ordered a cup of tea and sat by the window to wait for time.Xiao Er wanted to recommend to her the soup dumpling made by the newly invited Yangzhou Baian master, but she directly refused.

It can be seen that she really wanted to go to the General's Mansion to find Gu Cheng early on the morning of the 23rd, but she didn't know what happened at that time, nor where Yu Zuimei was now.

The emperor's life is in his body, so he dare not delay the schedule.So they left as scheduled.

An Shaohua left three of the thirteen guards to take care of Qiufen, and two more to visit Yu Zuimei.He also asked the dark guard to visit the old man Ren's house and Li Zan's rented house to house the girls he bought, but he couldn't find anyone.

Going north along this road, the grass and trees are withered, and the eyes are full of chills.

Gu Li's appetite has always been poor, and An Shaohua asked him what he would like to eat several times, but he just smiled wryly.An Shaohua also had nothing to do, Gu Yu was snarky, but it was cold and cold in the remote countryside, where could he find food for him?

But who would have thought that Gu Li not only had a bad mouth but also a delicate body, he couldn't eat well for a few days, and immediately started to complain, and An Shaohua went around in a hurry, and finally asked Tie Yi to go to the nearest town to buy some vegetables, regardless of money. .

After all, it was the person who followed Gu Yu many years ago, Tie Yi laughed when he heard it: "Master An is overthinking, our young master is not so delicate."

An Shaohua responded, thinking that your son is much more delicate than you think.If I can't eat well for a few days, I feel sick all over, as if I had a serious illness.But he couldn't say this in front of the thirteen guards. After all, he was under Gu Li's subordinates, so he had to make them think that his son was omnipotent.

It's just that at night, when An Shaohua saw the wild vegetables in front of him, he froze and his mind was spinning.These things look messy and don't smell good, not to mention that Gu Cheng eats so little in Japan these days, how can he eat these things?

This Tie Yi really doesn't care about his work, so he has to find a way to beat Tie Yi.But Tie Yi had good intentions after all, he just did something bad, and it's not good to say too much.An Shaohua thought to himself, after all, Tie Yi is Gu Cheng's man, so it's better for Gu Cheng to take care of it himself, but it's better to throw away these wild vegetables quietly.

But An Shaohua didn't guard against how many wild vegetables Tie Yi had dug up. When he was in a dilemma, Gu Cheng had already devoured them.God knows that when An Shaohua went back and saw the leftovers on the table, he almost shed tears.

In his eyes, why did Gu Li grow up to experience such pain?

In times of famine and calamity, people will eat wild vegetables, An Shaohua knows.So he couldn't accept that Gu Li ate wild vegetables and ate so much.

Early the next morning, An Shaohua went to see Princess Cheng'an again, and asked if he could change his itinerary and visit the nearest town.

The princess didn't say anything. It's only October 31st, and there are still two months before the new year, but more than half of the journey has been made, and there is always plenty of time.Just go to town.

Two days later, they arrived at a small town called Naobian.Naobian is the dialect of the Liangzhou boundary, which roughly means hot spring.Qingyue's family has a village near here, named Wuxianzhuang.It's a pity that Wuxianzhuang doesn't grow many vegetables, but since there are many hot springs nearby, it doesn't matter which one you buy.

An Shaohua sent Fugui to buy vegetables.

Gu Cheng also had the heart to walk around and have a look.

Speaking of which, the two had been married for many years, but rarely traveled together. An Shaohua quickly made arrangements and took Gu Li to the market in Naobian Town.

Princess Cheng'an also happily brought a few guards, changed into local clothes and went to the town to have a look.

Different from the dignity of Yonganjing and the tranquility of Suizhou, Naobian Town has the crispness of a small town in the north.It seems that the town is not big, and almost everyone knows each other, but they are not exclusive. When they see strangers, everyone smiles, is hospitable, and knows everything.

It turns out that Naobian Town was originally a military town, and soldiers were stationed here during the war. After many years, many military households settled here, and a small town was formed over time.The town is not big, and people are always related to each other. There is not even a decent inn in the town, but there are a few hot spring villages, all of which are owned by a few elders from the state capital.

An Shaohua was chatting with others, but his eyes never left Gu Cheng.

On weekdays, Gu Cheng didn't like to go out, and he was even more impatient to go to the market.Today I was very interested, and I bought a lot of things in a short time.They are all small objects that are not common in Yonganjing.

"Auntie, this is broken~ Luo~" Gu Cheng didn't know how to speak the local dialect here, and it was very difficult to pronounce it.

"Zaoluo!" The aunt who made the bamboo basket corrected him with a smile.

"Yes, that's all. How much is it? I want ten!"

Gu Cheng took a fancy to the palm-sized bamboo basket and played with it in his hand.An Shaohua took it over and asked, "What's the use of this?"

"Catch Zhou!" Gu Yan danced and danced, "Bean sprouts want a set, and Zhu Yu's children want a set." Then he raised his eyebrows and approached An Shaohua and whispered: "There is still big brother, maybe we go back... Hehehe... ..."

An Shaohua raised his hand and squeezed his hand, it was cold.He held Gu Cheng's hand under the cover of his sleeve. "That's only two or three sets." An Shaohua said with a smile, "You want ten sets!"

"I'll talk about it later when I have it. This thing won't break! Come back and buy it when you can't use it." Gu Cheng said, and paid the money.Unexpectedly, this old lady was very skillful, and she made a small granary and a small house in a short time. Gu Cheng simply lifted his clothes and squatted aside: "Ma'am, what else can you make? You make ten of each kind. I'll give you the money first, can I pick it up tomorrow?"

"These two are for you to play with! This thing is not worth a lot of money, I can't take it."

"I want it!" Gu Li was a little anxious. He knew that in this era, there were no such terms as intellectual property, handicrafts, and intangible cultural heritage. People only looked at the material cost when calculating the value of things, not labor.But he didn't think it was right, so in the end, he decided to let the broken silver under the aunt's hand buy some interesting gadgets.

Going a little further, there is a sugar blower craftsman on the side of the road.The blown sugar figurines are inserted on the poles, golden and translucent, and look tight.

Two brothers stood at a distance and stared at the sugar man.My elder brother is about eleven or twelve years old, wearing coarse clothes, at first glance he looks like an apprentice from some family.The younger brother was three or four years old, staring at the sugar man with his mouth open, and his saliva formed a point on his chin.

"Sugar man, two cents each!" the sugar man yelled.

The older brother pulled the younger brother back a step, but the younger brother was unwilling to go, and shook his arm in his arms.The elder brother looked at the younger brother and then at the sugar man, took out a big one from his arms, and handed it to the man: "Master, I only have one penny, can you give me a small one?"

The man took the money in a very embarrassing manner, and handed a little sugar pig to the brother.The elder brother took the little sugar pig, and held it with one hand under it preciously.

The younger brother stood on tiptoe and hugged his elder brother's waist, anxiously put his mouth on the sugar pig.

"Wei Qing?"

An Shaohua turned her head, but saw Gu Cheng's expression of surprise.

"Weiqing, what's wrong?"

An Shaohua opened his mouth, only to realize that tears were streaming down his face.Gu Cheng followed An Shaohua's eyes and looked forward. It was just a sugar blower's stall. Could it be that he met an old friend?

"Come on, kid!" An Shaohua wiped away tears, and beckoned the two kids.

The two brothers stood in front of An Shaohua, the younger brother's eyes and soul were stuck to the sugar pig and he couldn't pull it off, his face was facing An Shaohua but his eyes were squinting at the sugar pig.Gu Li burst out laughing uncontrollably, "This kid is so cute."

"Excuse me, does the officer have any orders?"

"How do you know that we are officials?" An Shaohua originally thought of Jing He in his previous life because of the sugar pig, but he didn't know that this child had poisonous eyes.

The little brother smiled and pointed to a bunch of gadgets in Gu Cheng's hand: "That thing is not used by adults, it can only be used to amuse children. The two sons seem to be young, and there should not be so many children in the family. Maybe It’s for someone else’s child.”

An Shaohua took a look at Gu Cheng, who opened his eyes wide and silently said with his mouth, "What a good seedling!"

"Go ahead." An Shaohua took out a piece of broken silver worth more than one tael and said.

The child turned his face away with a smile, and took a look at An Shaohua: "The official will give you your orders first, and if I can do it, I will collect the money."

"I'm just asking how you know we belong to officials." An Shaohua said with a smile, and handed the money to the child, "It's okay, you can keep it. Just tell the truth."

The elder brother thought for a while, took the piece of silver with both hands, bowed to An Shaohua, pursed his lips and smiled and said: "My father is the steward of Wuxianzhuang." After all, he didn't hold back his laughter out.

An Shaohua laughed loudly, pointed at the child and was speechless.

"The official is a master, so you can't count your words!" The child jumped away clutching the money.

"What is Wuxianzhuang?" Gu Cheng asked in a low voice.

"Hahaha..." An Shaohua wiped away the tears that came out of laughter, "Oh... this kid is a monkey and a monkey. Wuxianzhuang is Qin Ziying's hot spring resort."

"Qin Ziying?" Gu Yu vaguely felt that he had heard this name before, and it took him a while to remember that the Jiedushi of Beizhou was called Qin Ziying. "Then how does this kid know us?"

"Qin Ziying is the Jiedu envoy of Beizhou." An Shaohua took some pieces of silver.

"I know."

"It's also Qingyue's father. It's Wuxianzhuang that we're staying here."

"Greetings to the officials. My father's name is Qin Shun, my name is Erhe, and his name is Sihe. He is my younger brother. Just ask the officials if you have anything to do. I know everything about Naobian Town!"

An Shaohua felt disappointed.Originally seeing these two children buying sugar figurines, I remembered that after being exiled in the previous life, Jing He worked as an apprentice in the cloth village, and secretly bought sugar pigs for Jing Qiu after earning a little money.Jing Qiu is reluctant to eat it, so he always hides it and licks it every morning and evening.

There is no child who does not like sweets. At that time, they were poor, and the two children suffered a lot.Probably the children from poor families all have the same appearance, so he felt sad when he saw these two children.

Now that I know that these two children are just for some possible rewards, and following them from Wuxianzhuang to here, An Shaohua somehow always compares this child with the scene in his previous life, as if a hole has been stabbed in his heart, exhaling Go straight to the cold wind.

"Okay, what's delicious in Naobian Town?" An Shaohua asked.

As soon as he heard about the food, Sihe's eyes lit up instantly, and he ran to An Shaohua and hugged his leg and said, "I know, Guan Guan, I know!"
