Chapter 272 Sending Letters
After Pu Yanlan settled her mortal affairs, she planned to return to Tianyimen with Gu Shiyi. The two flew about a hundred miles in the Escape Light. Gu Shiyi always felt as if there was something he had not done. He tilted his head and thought for a long time, then asked Pu Yanlan,
"Yan'er, have we finished all the things we need to do on this trip?"

Pu Yanlan was stunned by her question, thought for a while, and said uncertainly,

"probably?"

It's weird, Shi Yi didn't feel it even if he didn't ask, but when she asked, she felt that there really was something unsolved. The two looked at each other, and after a while they suddenly shouted,
"letter!"

"Deliver the message!"

Didn't Junior Brother Jia ask him to deliver a letter to his sister who was married to Huangjing? Why did the two of them completely forget about this?
Fortunately, fortunately, we haven’t gone far yet!
At that moment, the escape light turned around, and the two of them flew to Huangjing City. When they arrived near Huangjing City, they lowered the escape light. One person held the old horse, the other held the fox in his arms, and walked back to Huangjing City from the official road step by step. .

Gu Shiyi asked Pu Yanlan,

"It shouldn't be a problem if I return to heaven two days later, right?"

Pu Yanlan glanced at her and knew that her best friend had taken a fancy to her and wanted to have some fun. She was back anyway, so it didn't matter if she stayed for a few more days. She immediately replied,
"It's out of the way!"

Although she is considered to be the best among the Tianyi Sect generation, the sect has not assigned her any secular duties. In addition to concentrating on her cultivation, that is, refining some elixirs for her junior brothers and sisters. However, she is used to being aloof and dares to ask for help. She doesn't have many junior brothers and sisters asking for elixirs, so as long as the two masters don't push her, she's still free and there's no need to rush back!
Pu Yanlan thought for a while and then said,

"I heard from the head master earlier that many people coming from the other side of the sea have also entered the world. Huangjing is the capital of the Yue Kingdom and the most prosperous. It is impossible to say that there are already outsiders in Huangjing. Let's be careful. Some are!”

Gu Shi nodded,

"That's it, let's change our appearance and calm down our aura..."

The two hid in a small forest nearby. When they came out, they were a young couple who went back to their parents' home to visit their relatives. The man was of medium build, with a dark face and a simple smile, but he had bright black eyes. The woman She is white and clean, small and exquisite, with a green cloth on her head, a little white cat in her arms, and a small bundle. Only the old horse has not changed, but after being scrubbed and washed, all the dirt has gone away. , brushed his hair, and now he appears in front of Zhang Jiuer's house, and even that man can't recognize him!
There was a young couple. The husband took the bundle from his daughter-in-law's hand, threw it on the horse's back, and complained again,

"Tell me, if you go back to your mother's house and take the cat with you, if you leave it at home for my mother to look at, will it be lost?"

The little wife pouted and said,

"That's not possible. You think I don't know. The little grandson of your third uncle's family came over earlier and took a fancy to me as a cat. He clamored to catch it. If I hadn't lost my temper and dropped the basin, my little grandson would have lost his temper. Bai already belongs to someone else. As soon as we leave, my mother-in-law may give it away. That’s not possible. It was brought as a dowry from my mother’s family!”

The husband has no way to deal with his wife.

"Okay, okay, just take it with you. Anyway, you are weak, so don't let me help..."

And he said,

"There will be more people on the road later, and it will be scared away when it sees the crowd. Don't cry at me!"

The little daughter-in-law responded,
"No, our little white is the most humane, it won't run away!"

"Whatever you do! Leave quickly. If you don't leave, the sun will set and we will have to spend the night outside the city!"

Immediately, he helped his young daughter-in-law get on the horse, while he took the old horse and mixed in with the teams entering the city, entering Huangjing City. After the two entered the city, it was already dark. After discussing it, they found an inn in the city to stay. , said nothing all night, and the next day the two of them searched for the address Jia Zhihao said.

Jia Zhihao's sister married into a Huangjing family named Li. They lived in an alley in the south of the city. They still dressed up as a young couple. Gu Shiyi was kind-hearted and said to Pu Yanlan,

"That is, Jia Zhihao's sister married here. We came here to ask around to see if this Jia sister was bullied in her husband's family. After all, she is a member of the same family. If there is anything missing, , it’s also easy to take care of!”

Pu Yanlan frowned and said,

"As I say, just send the letter and leave, there is no need to cause any complications!"

She had a cool temper and didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but she couldn't get over Gu Shiyi's talkative and inquisitive nature. When he arrived near Namin Alley, he ordered two bowls of noodles from a stall at the entrance of the alley, and asked the old man running the stall to He cut two taels of cooked meat and asked his wife to feed the white cat in his arms while eating. When the old man saw it, he smiled and said,

"My little brother really loves his wife, and he even bought meat to coax her cat!"

Gu Shiyi laughed and said,

"Isn't it just two years since I got married? I'm so jealous. I'm still waiting to coax her into giving birth to a son!"

The old man laughed loudly after hearing this.
"Little brother, this is a true interpretation of the style. I think back then, if I had been as considerate as little brother, I would have given birth to seventeen or eight sons!"

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"Look at how strong your old body is. It's not too late to give birth now. If you go back and work hard tonight, you can still regenerate!"

The old man laughed again after hearing this.
"I can't give birth. Old man, I do have the strength, but my mother-in-law died thirty years ago, so I have no chance of giving birth!"

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows after hearing this.
"Oh... my aunt has been dead for thirty years. You... don't want to have another one?"

The old man smiled and waved his hands and said,
"I don't have that thought anymore. Old man, I was ignorant when I was young. I ate, drank, whored and gambled, and did not do any serious work. She was so tired that she set up a stall to feed the family by herself. Later, she collapsed from exhaustion. Old man, I realized what had happened. Unfortunately, it was too late... My mother-in-law is gone, and the old man doesn’t have that thought anymore. Fortunately, she still left me a son. Now I even have a great-grandson, so I can set up a stall to earn some money to supplement my son’s family! "

Gu Shiyi sighed after hearing this and said to Pu Yanlan,

"Daughter-in-law, do you hear that, you must cherish a man who treats you well and have as many children as you can, lest you regret it later and be unable to have children even if you want to?"

The little daughter-in-law played by Pu Yanlan, with two red clouds rising on her fair face, spat at her husband,

"Bah, who will give birth to you!" Gu Shiyi and the old man both laughed. After laughing, Gu Shiyi asked the old man,
"I want to ask you, old man, is there a family with the surname Li nearby?"

The old man said,

"There are a lot of people named Li around here, and I don't know which one I'm asking about?"

Gu Shi said,
"It's the family whose daughter-in-law is named Jia..."

"Oh……"

The old man thought for a while and said,
"Are you talking about the one at the end of the alley?"

Gu Shi said,
"We were entrusted by someone to deliver a letter. The address says it's the Li's house in this alley, but I don't know if it's the one at the end?"

The old man said,

"There are three Li families nearby. The one who married a daughter-in-law named Jia is this one. The old man has lived here all his life and there is no way he can be mistaken!"

When Gu Shiyi heard this, he cupped his hands and said,
"Thank you so much for reminding me..."

Asked again,

"I wonder what the Li family's situation is like, and how well does the Jia family's daughter live in this family?"

Seeing the old man's hesitation, he continued,
"To be honest with you, we are here to deliver a letter on behalf of the Jia brothers, and to inquire about the Jia sister's recent situation!"

The old man said,

"Then the Li family are all kind people, with good character..."

After thinking for a while he said,

"Recently, things have been quiet at home. However, a few months ago, the eldest son of the Li family, the man from the Jia family, encountered a robber when he went out to do small business. Although his life was saved, one of his legs was broken. The family has been raising children for several months, and they have not gone out to earn money, so the life of their room has deteriorated..."

"Oh... I encountered robbers. How come Huangjing City is under the emperor's feet, and we also encounter robbers?"

"Isn't that right? It's been said that we haven't encountered such a thing in many years. It's unlucky for the eldest son of the Li family to happen to him!"

At that moment, the old man vividly told the two men about the robbery of the elder man of the Li family.

"...Fortunately, there were people from the government patrolling outside the city at that time, and they saved the life of the eldest son of the Li family. When he was brought back, he was covered in blood, and his right leg was broken while escaping. But as long as he is okay, their family The old and the young live off the Li family's eldest son doing small business outside. Now that he is bedridden, the family's life has become tight. Recently, they don't go out much, and their neighbors don't see them when they visit. people……"

Gu Shiyi's brows moved after hearing this.
"How long ago was this?"

The old man thought for a moment and said,
"It should be around half a year old!"

"It's been half a year and you haven't raised your baby yet?"

The old man shook his head,
"No, I broke my leg in front of me and called in several doctors..."

Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered something and asked,
"Which brother of the Jia family are you friends with? When her man was robbed earlier, one of her brothers even came over..."

"Oh……"

Gu Shiyi heard something different and asked,

"Did one come before?"

The old man nodded and said,

"Yes, a young boy and a very friendly friend ate two bowls of noodles at my stall..."

"is it?"

Gu Shiyi reached out and touched his chin, rolled his eyes and said,
"Tell me about that young boy's appearance. I am familiar with the Jia family, so I don't think I know him..."

The old man did not doubt that he was there. He thought about it and said,

"He's fair and fair, and he's so tall..."

He gestured and said,

"His friend is so tall, looks older, has a beard on his chin, and looks very gentle... Oh, by the way, there is a mole on the tiger's mouth of his palm. When he was eating noodles from a bowl, the old man saw it... …”

Is there a mole on the tiger’s mouth?
Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes. Gu Shiyi turned around and laughed and said,

"That's right! That's right! This is the second child, the boy's friend is the third child, and the older one is also my friend. The brother-in-law of the Li family was injured, and they came here to visit Once, when I got home, my parents were very worried... This time I accompanied my daughter-in-law back to the city to visit her relatives, so she asked me to come over for a visit..."
