Chapter 428 The Blessings of Being a Human

"My lord, it's here, it's here! Seventh lady, do you still have leek cake?"

Cui Zi went through his mind, but he never thought of where he and Li Yun had met and had any enmity.

Because of the war, the Qianzhou market was deserted everywhere, and there were not three or two people in sight.Among the prefectures, this central Guizhou is not considered rich at all, but there are several envoys scraping land in a row, and the people are struggling to live, and the market is bleak.

Looking around, there is only such a food stall around.

There was an old woman in her fifties or sixties sitting in front of the stall. There were no customers, so she didn't bother to get up, holding a book in her hand, reading happily, and there was a cat lying on her lap, with her ears moving. of.

Hearing Li Yun's question, the cat woke up and jumped down, and the woman stood up displeased, "Didn't Mr. Li just eat and buy something? Why did you come again? You are familiar with what you eat every day." Why don't you fry it yourself? I'm just looking at my idle books."

Li Yun didn't get annoyed at all, rolled up his sleeves, "I'll come if I come! Why don't Seventh Wife tell your story to my eldest niece?"

It was only then that the old woman seemed to have noticed Duan Yi, she raised her head to look at her, she was delighted at first glance, "My niece is so beautiful, your little old man is amazing, this newborn dog in Qianzhou City Everyone knows him."

"It was the tofu seller Xi Shi who saw him, so she had to tear open the sack and tell him how many beans she had."

Duan Yi looked at Li Yun who was in a hurry with a shovel, and glanced at Cui Zigeng.

Cui Zigeng had already frowned at this time and couldn't bear it any longer. He received Duan Yi's gaze, and immediately took the spatula from Li Yun's hand, and started frying the vegetable box with alacrity.

Li Yun was like an old fox who had succeeded in his tricks. With a smile, he wiped Duan Yi's stool, and led her to sit down at a table, "Seventh lady, why are you dawdling? Tell me, tell me."

Seeing that Li Yun really wanted to hear what she had to say, the seventh lady was cheerful, and she didn't hesitate to pour a cup of tea for Duan Yi, "It's nothing, who hasn't been young yet? My father is a gangster, My aunt is selling this leek cake."

"For many years in the past, she was here selling court food and pulling me up. After I grew up, I went to the bodyguard bureau to be a bodyguard with some boxing skills. I beat Zhang San and kicked Li Si for many years. , and finally became the number one chief escort in Qianzhou City."

When Duan Yi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.

It is true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured!This city of Qianzhou is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

The seventh lady's face was full of nostalgia, "When I was eighteen or nineteen years old, when I was in good looks, I was going up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire. How could I care about the girl's bosom? I feel that there should be someone who knows the cold and the hot."

"That's how I met my husband, Guo Lin. He is the second son of the Fuyuan Escort Bureau in Qianzhou City. He is ten years younger than me. He fell in love with me at first sight by the river. I am not that Liu Xiahui. How can you not eat it?"

The seventh lady said, and blinked at Cui Zigeng, Cui Zigeng's scalp was numb, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"The old lady can be the leader of the bodyguard bureau, and she has traveled all over the world for so many years, so how can she be defenseless?"

"Sure enough, after getting married, the guy surnamed Guo took care of everything for me and locked me in a cage like that canary. The reason for this is that his family's Fuyuan Bodyguard Bureau swallowed my Tiancheng Bodyguard Bureau."

"Later! How about this young man, guess what?"

Cui Zi even put the fried leek box on the plate and put it in front of Duan Yi, and after listening to the question from the seventh lady, he said bravely, "You won."

The seventh lady took out a plate, mixed vinegar and spice for Duan Yi, and pushed her towards her, "I am ordinary in appearance. I have been around for many years, and I am rougher than the girls in the other boudoir. Then Guo Lin is outside, raising seven beauties."

"Anyway, a husband and wife can't be unfeeling, right? So the old lady fulfilled his two long-cherished wishes in his life."

As she spoke, she held up a finger, "The first one is that he wanted the two bodyguards to form a family, so I made the Fuyuan bodyguard change its surname, and it belonged to Tiancheng."

The seventh lady raised her second finger, "This second one, he wants to be surrounded by beauties, so I sent him to the Imperial Palace in Kyoto, the place with the most beauties in the world to be an eunuch."

"The old woman can spend her old age in peace now, and she can do whatever she wants. It's a blessing for doing good deeds."

Duan Yi's mouth was full of greasy food, and when she heard this, she immediately understood Li Yun's intentions.

She glanced out of the corner of the eye, but saw Cui Zigeng's legs tightened involuntarily, and finally couldn't help pounding the table and laughing.

After that, no one spoke, Li Yun sat there stroking the cat, busy serving tea and water for Duan Yi; the seventh lady picked up the story book again, read it with relish, and chanted from time to time A few words, this dog should be dragged out!
Cui Zigeng stood in front of the snack stand, frying plate after plate.

After Duan Yi was full, Li Yun handed her a handkerchief, and said just now, "Your Majesty, I will go and see if General Cheng needs help. They come from Jiangnan, so they are not familiar with Central Guizhou."

"I am the governor of Qianzhou, and this is my duty. At night, I invited the king to live in the Qianzhou envoy's mansion, and I have already ordered someone to clean it up."

As he spoke, he glanced at Cui Zi triumphantly, as if he had just discovered it, and exclaimed, "Seventh lady, how can you ask the guests to work all the time, but you are sitting! You don't want it!"

The Seventh Lady clicked her tongue twice, put the book aside, took the shovel from Cui Zigeng's hand, pushed him towards me, and said in an imposing manner, "Why are there so many people queuing up to eat! Could it be that you are looking at this young man?" Well born?"

Cui Zigeng put down his sleeves and his hands froze, he quickly pulled Duan Yi who was full, and quickly left the snack stand.

The seventh lady looked at the backs of the two, shook her head, and murmured, "There is no winning or losing, but both sides suffer."

Cui Zigeng dragged Duan Yi along and walked quickly, and stopped when he got on an arched bridge.

The wind blows gently along the river, the water surface is sparkling, the sun not far away is slowly setting, and the sky is full of rays of light.

On both sides of the river, there were occasional clumps of reeds, from which came the cries of unknown birds.

On the surface of the river, some golden osmanthus fell, exuding a delicate fragrance.

Duan Yi lay on the railing, and her heart suddenly became peaceful.

Cui Zi stretched out his hand and plucked a broken leaf from Duan Yi's hair, "Ah Yi has won many good ministers and generals!"

Duan Yi raised her chin proudly, "A good bird lives on a broken tree. I am the sycamore tree that attracted the golden phoenix just now. For example, Uncle Cui, the only one who can squat on the top of the coffin is the black crow. "

"The Seventh Lady is right. People have to accumulate some blessings. I don't have a decent prison in my palace. If you want to be the king of Yue, don't be polite and blunt. I am beautiful and kind, so I will Your wish is granted."

Cui Zizheng was about to open his mouth, but he heard a shocking grunt from his abdomen.

His face turned black, his ears turned red, he held his hand to his mouth, and coughed non-stop, "cough cough cough!"

Seeing the smile in the corner of Duan Yi's eyes, he held back hahaha.

Cui Zi couldn't help feeling aggrieved, "I've been a cook for half a day, but I haven't caught a single dish."
