Warm spring enters Hou's door

Chapter 72 Another old friend

Gu Caiwei's smiling face froze, and she quickly raised her head. "Isn't it? In Chang'an City, who doesn't like to drink? Mr. Di Ge needs to socialize all year round, so he must have a lot of alcohol."

"You know that's not what I meant." Du Juan said coldly, his eyes still fixed on hers.

Gu Caiwei was so heartbroken that she jumped up and down.

She quickly took a deep breath, raised her chin, and stared back viciously: "I know what's wrong? Open my head if you have the ability to see it! If you can't open it, then I won't say it. I think you can cut it open." What am I going to do!"

Menacing, like a little cat with teeth and claws.Du Juanqing was intimidated by her aura so coldly, he quickly looked away. "I also asked, why are you so fierce?"

Gu Caiwei snorted softly. "I've already been stamped by your Du family as a shrew. Shouldn't I be a bit fierce? Otherwise, wouldn't my name be for nothing?"

Du Juan was speechless. "You call it venting your anger."

"Yes, yes! Who told the Du family that they were cowarded after I took turns looking for trouble last time, and they didn't dare to appear in front of me again? Then I can only ask you to practice my skills." Gu Caiwei coolly Liang said.

Du Juanqing turned his head directly. "It's very feasible for you to make medicinal wine, then make a medicinal bar! If you need anything, just make a list to the housekeeper and let him buy it."

"No, you give me the money, and I'll buy it myself." Gu Caiwei said, "Since it's for Mr. Di Ge to take care of his body, any medicine must be carefully selected. Don't worry about others picking my medicine."

After Du Juan heard it clearly, the glint in his eyes became much stronger.

However, he didn't ask any more questions, and just pointed his head: "It's up to you. You can go to the cashier to get the money as you like."

"Okay!" Gu Caiwei nodded quickly, then quickly turned around and ran back, "I have to make a list first to see what I need. Well, it's been a long time since I made medicinal wine, so I'm so excited!"

Seeing her leave without any burden, Du Juanqing stood there for a long time before turning around slowly.

Du Ren watched from the side, and he couldn't help clearing his throat. "Master Hou, Madam is really... lively."

"Well, she's quite lively." Du Juanqing nodded.

Uh……

Du Ren's mouth twitched again.Can he tell Lord Hou that what he just said is actually not a compliment?
But after thinking about it, since Lord Hou thought it was a compliment, then it was a compliment.

He finally understood that no matter what this lady does now, it is good in Lord Hou's eyes.Even if he thinks his wife is a little crazy, not dignified and stable at all, so what if she doesn't look like a big lady?It's enough that Hou Ye likes it!
It's just... "Master Hou, don't spoil Madam too much. If you want to live a good life with her, you should solve the mystery of Madam as soon as possible. And with your ability, you actually want to pry Madam It's not a problem with your mouth."

Du Juanqing turned his head immediately, and his Youyou eyes fixed on him.

Du Ren's heart skipped a beat for an instant!
Hou Ye's eyes were so sharp that those who saw him couldn't help but tighten their hearts.Under such gazes, he only felt numb all over, and his mouth seemed to weigh a thousand catties, as if he couldn't lift it up.In the end, the madam was fine, she was looked at by Lord Hou, but she was fine, and she could still choke back?

This little lady is really not an ordinary person!
After staring at him for a long time, Du Juanqing stopped talking. "Of course, Ben Hou will solve her secrets himself. However, forcing her to open her mouth is boring. It is actually a pleasure for Ben Hou to explore bit by bit by himself."

What else can Du Ren say?
Looking at his own master Hou's silly look of enjoying himself, he finally understood—money can't buy his happiness.It's rare for an old man to be so patient with a woman, and he's really eager to find out everything about her!Then let him go!
It's just that he can imagine: now that Lord Hou is spoiling her like this, then his tactics in the future will definitely be worse than worse.Ma'am, don't be really spoiled!

But he is not stupid, he would not say such words.

Then the next day, when Gu Caiwei made the list and was excitedly planning to go out to buy medicinal materials, she saw Du Juanqing was already waiting in the carriage hall again.

Gu Caiwei raised her eyebrows. "Master Hou, do you have something to go out?"

"Benhou said, to be on the safe side, I will accompany you when you go out in the future." Du Juan responded coldly.

Gu Caiwei was unable to support her forehead. "Master Hou, are you so free now? I'm not going out of the city this time, and Zhang Changzong has already been taught by the princess. He won't be able to get up for a while, it's fine."

Du Juanqing didn't speak any more, but got on his horse silently.

Seeing this, Gu Caiwei could only roll her eyes helplessly.

Because she was going out to buy medicinal materials this time, she didn't take a carriage, but had someone prepare a little donkey for her. She also changed into plain clothes and planned to go quietly to the pharmacy to buy it and then come back.As a result, Du Juanqing's expensive attire, coupled with the snow-white horse under him, is always the focus of attention no matter where he goes, and it also enhances her sense of presence a lot .

Gu Caiwei said helplessly: "Master Hou, can you change your clothes? There is also this horse, you can change it too! Today I just want to go out safely and buy some medicinal materials, and I don't want to cause trouble."

Du Juan glanced at her clearly, then turned back and changed into casual clothes, and the horse he was riding was also changed into a big variegated horse.Looking at it this way, it is indeed much more low-key than before.But this man's face is really good-looking, and his cold and arrogant demeanor is too outstanding, even ordinary clothes and ordinary horses can't suppress it.

If they went to the street together, they would definitely be looked at.

Gu Caiwei was completely powerless.She didn't have the guts to ask this man to change his attire again, so she could only grit her teeth. "Let's go!"

So, the two of them didn't bring any maids and servants with them, so they rode horses and donkeys, one after the other, left the Hou's mansion and walked towards Dongshi.

The East Market had just opened in the afternoon, and it was bustling with people everywhere, and the cries of small vendors could be heard endlessly.After Gu Caiwei entered, she walked in familiarly, and found a shop selling medicinal materials.

The boss was a thin little old man.Even though the people around greeted the guests loudly, he lay lazily behind the booth and slept with his eyes closed, snoring continuously.The guests in front of him came and went, and he didn't bother to make a fuss, just fell asleep soundly.

Gu Caiwei walked over, and she raised her hand and knocked on the nearby pillar a few times. "Boss, there are guests!"

"Who is who?" The little old man jumped up in fright, looking around anxiously.

Gu Caiwei waved at him with a smile: "It's me. I'm here to buy medicinal materials, you bring me all the best medicinal materials here, and I will choose slowly."

"Okay! What medicinal materials do you want, little lady!" The little old man rolled his eyes when he saw that the business was completed, revealing his nakedness.

"I want to grab a few pictures of Guishao Zhimu Soup, and the compatibility of Duhua Jisheng Soup. Just pick these up for me, and the price will not be less for you." Gu Caiwei said with a smile.

The little old man nodded hastily, then turned around and carried a few small bags full of medicinal materials over. "Little lady, here are the good medicines that the old man has specially treasured up, and I don't usually sell them to others! Seeing that I am destined to be with you today, little lady, I will make an exception and show you these good things. It's just that The stuff is good, but the price is expensive!"

"The price doesn't matter, as long as it's good." Gu Caiwei said softly, then she lowered her head and grabbed a handful of medicinal herbs in her hand to take a closer look, then picked up a piece and chewed it in her mouth.

"Yo, I said who is this, why does it look so familiar. So it's the Seventh Uncle and Seventh Aunt!" At this moment, a strange voice came from the side.Gu Caiwei turned her head to look, and saw a few luxuriously dressed young men standing not far from them.The one at the front of these people is a young gentleman who is sixteen or seventeen years old. He has a good life, but his eyes are bursting with anger, and he is here to find fault.

Du Juanqing turned around slowly. "Sanlang, what are you doing here?"

"Could it be that Seventh Uncle and Seventh Aunt can come to Dongshi for a stroll, can't we?" Du Sanlang said with a smile, and he had already taken the initiative to walk in front of them.

Looking at Gu Caiwei who was grabbing the medicine and tasting it, he chuckled again. "I heard that Aunt Seven has extraordinary medical skills. Last time, I diagnosed Aunt 21's illness. My nephew really admires it. Now that we have met here, I will ask Aunt Seven to help my nephew take a look. It’s better to prescribe side medicine for my little nephew.”

"I don't know how to prescribe medicine." Gu Caiwei said immediately.

Du Sanlang sneered. "Aunt Seven looks down on me as a junior? Since you can see a doctor for Aunt 21, why don't you see me? Or, because you quarreled with my parents last time, and you still have resentment until now, So even I, a junior, are hated?"

Gu Caiwei looked back at Du Junqing speechlessly. "I was wrong. I used to think that the mansion of the Duke of Lai was a honorable nobleman in Chang'an City, so the people in this mansion should know some etiquette, justice and shame. But now I realize that they The family is simply a model of selfishness and self-contempt. Didn't we quarrel last time? I forgot about it in the past. We have also sent a lot of gifts to the Duke's Mansion these days. Since They all accepted it, and I thought it was over. How can I think that a junior came to me on my own initiative and kept saying that I hate him? I was so busy that I didn't even know who he was, so what? Have time to hate him?"

Du Sanlang's face turned blue and white after hearing this.

Only then did Du Juan introduce her seriously. "This is Saburo from the second elder brother's family."

"Oh, so it's the son of the second elder brother's family who admits to love without saying a word!" Gu Caiwei nodded to show that she knew.

After hearing this, Du Sanlang's expression became even uglier.

But after Gu Caiwei finished speaking, she turned back and continued to choose the medicinal materials, ignoring him at all.

Du Sanlang's heart suddenly became more and more angry.He immediately snatched another bag of medicinal materials from Gu Caiwei's hand that he hadn't had time to check: "Boss, how many medicinal materials do you have here? Take them all out for me, I want them all!"

"Ah, I have five or six catties of this medicine here! Originally, it was sold for one cent and five cents. Since you want it, Mr. Xiaolang, I will sell it to you for three pennies per catty." The little old man Seeing that there was another business coming, he immediately said cheerfully.

A young gentleman next to Du Sanlang immediately slapped his face when he heard this. "Will you, old man, settle the score? Five cents for a cent of medicinal materials, and five hundred cents for a catty. Why are you asking for a price of three pennies per catty? You are stealing money!"

"That's what I said. But Xiao Lang, you are going to buy all the cinnamon twigs from me now. Then if someone else comes to grab the medicine, I will not be able to sell all the medicinal materials that are compatible with cinnamon twigs. Of course I will also buy them in the future." I can’t sell many things. And now that things are sold out, it will take about half a month for me to replenish them later, that is, I have to live on the money from selling osmanthus twigs for half a month. Not much!" Instead, the little old man settled accounts with them plausibly.

After listening to the young gentlemen, the dissatisfaction on their faces faded away.

It's just that they are still not very happy to ask them to come up with three consecutive money in one go.

Seeing this, the little old man rolled his eyes again, and quickly pointed to the medicinal materials lined up in front of Gu Caiwei: "Actually, there is another way, that is, you buy all the medicinal materials that this little lady asked for. You need a pair of medicines, and I can give you a little cheaper. But even so, taking all the medicines will cost four or five hundred cash, so if you count it all together—oh, it seems to be more than four pennies!"

They are crazy and stupid to buy all these medicinal materials!These things can't be eaten or drunk, so what's the use of them buying them back?

Du Sanlang gritted his teeth. "Three strings of money are three strings of money, I want it!"

He readily took out the three pennies and threw them over.The little old man hurriedly grabbed the money and hugged it in his arms, counted carefully to make sure that it was not bad, and then brought over the bag of cinnamon sticks. "Mr. Xiaolang, please accept it. By the way, go forward ten steps, turn right and walk another twenty steps, there is a pharmacy there, then turn right and go up about fifteen steps, there is another pharmacy, If you want to buy out all the medicinal materials of these two families, please do so as soon as possible. These two families are very famous families in the East City, and many people come here to buy medicines from them specially!"

"Understood!" Du Sanlang nodded, but did not leave.

The little old man knew what he wanted to see, so he quickly turned to Gu Caiwei and the two of them: "Little lady, I'm sorry, you also saw it just now, this little gentleman bought all the osmanthus branches in my shop, now I'm here There is no cinnamon twig, but there are other medicinal materials, I wonder if you want more?"

"Since I can't make up a pair of medicines, what's the use of asking for them?" Gu Caiwei shook her head, "I'd better go to the next house to have a look!"

"Okay! Slow down, little lady!" The little old man had made money, and now his eyes were narrowed into slits with a smile.He didn't hold back too much, and quickly waved his hands off cheerfully.

When Du Sanlang saw this, he twitched his lips, and took his group of cronies to the next pharmacy with confidence, and bought out all the osmanthus twigs from the other two before Gu Caiwei arrived.

In this way, after going around in a circle, Gu Caiwei and the two of them still had nothing to buy.

When Du Sanlang saw this, he finally showed his color, and took the initiative to salute Gu Caiwei with a bag of cinnamon sticks in his hand: "Seventh Uncle and Seventh Aunt, we should go home after shopping, if you are interested, please slow down." Walk slowly, my nephew will leave first."

Then he shook the bag containing the cinnamon sticks and walked away triumphantly.

When the people walked away, Gu Caiwei took another look at Du Juanqing. "It seems that the rebellion of your uncle and grandpa has really hit the Du family hard. The quality of the in-laws of the next generation's son Lang has dropped a lot."

Otherwise, if a child is brought up by an authentic noble lady, how can it be possible to spend money and compete with others for such a right?Moreover, he had only achieved a small victory, and he seemed to have taken advantage of something, which looked very funny.

Du Juan lowered his eyes. "That's right."

Gu Caiwei stuck out her tongue. "Okay, I won't say anything."

However, since all the Guizhi were bought away, there was no need for them to stay here.Gu Caiwei was about to leave, but when she reached the gate of Dongshi, she heard a call from behind: "Little lady, please stay!"

Gu Caiwei looked back, and saw that skinny little old man pushing a car towards them again.

Gu Caiwei raised her eyebrows. "Old man, what else do you want?"

The little old man hurriedly wiped the sweat off his forehead, and then grinned at her: "Thank you, little lady, for allowing me to sell medicinal materials that I can't usually sell in a month. As a token of gratitude, I decided to give you a pair of medicine!"

As he spoke, he took out a few wrapped small paper packages from the car and handed them over.

Gu Caiwei didn't open it after receiving it, but just smelled it one by one, and then she looked at the little old man with a deep meaning in her eyes: "Didn't it mean that all the osmanthus branches have been bought by Du Sanlang just now?"

"I'm talking about the osmanthus twigs on the stall, and I didn't say that the ones on my car are also sold out!" the little old man said sternly.

Gu Caiwei suddenly snorted. "Fortunately, they have already left. Otherwise, if people are here, they must have the heart to strangle you when they hear this."

The little old man chuckled: "I just came here to chase after you, little lady, because I saw them leaving. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare!"

Now that the medicinal materials were delivered to her, he pushed the cart again. "It's great, I don't have to go out to the stall for the next month, and I can lie down and sleep at home! Go back and buy some wine and some appetizers, and have a good meal tonight!"

After watching the shriveled little old man push the car away, Du Juanqing opened his mouth. "You know each other."

"Yes, Lord Hou, you have sharp eyes, you can even see this." Gu Caiwei nodded, "He and my grandfather are old acquaintances, and my grandfather took me to sit at his stall when I was young, and he taught me by hand Admit the medicine, and then... poof!"

Speaking of which, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Du Juan raised his eyebrows. "What are you laughing at, eh?"

"I laughed, Du Sanlang and the others were fooled!" Gu Caiwei finally couldn't help it, she laughed for a while, then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to him slowly, "This old man has no other hobbies in this life , I like to make some fake medicines by myself and sell them together with real medicines. The one he showed me just now was fake, but before I had time to expose him, Du Sanlang came over and snatched the medicine away .Since he insisted on buying it, I didn't take advantage of others, so I just gave him these fake medicines."

Du Juan frowned instantly. "Is it fake? Why didn't I see it?"

A long illness becomes a good doctor.For the sake of Du Yi's health these years, he has visited many doctors everywhere, read many medical books, and personally picked up many medicinal materials, and he thinks he has a certain foundation in the identification of medicinal materials.But the bag of cinnamon sticks brought out by the little old man just now has no problem in terms of shape, color and smell, so how could it be fake?
"That's because your kung fu is not good enough!" Gu Caiwei laughed at him unceremoniously, "But this old man's method of making fake medicines is really first-rate, and many experts have fallen into his hands from the beginning. It looks the same as the real thing, but if you pick it up and break it open, you will find that the innermost color of the medicinal material is slightly whitish."

Du Juan nodded. "So that's it. Then you didn't even open the paper bag, how can you be sure that what he gave you is real?"

"I've already helped him earn three times in vain. Isn't he willing to give me a pack of real medicinal materials? This pair doesn't cost much!" Gu Caiwei said with a smile, and then casually handed the medicine pack to him. With a flick of his hand, "Let's go, let's go buy something else!"

The two of them pulled him together and excitedly entered the East Market again.

After being humiliated mercilessly by her, Du Juanqing's expression was not very good at first.But immediately, when he realized that Gu Caiwei's soft little hand grasped his wrist and took the initiative to pull him forward, his heart moved inexplicably, and the displeasure that lingered in his heart just now disappeared in an instant.He looked at the little lady who was happily walking forward in front of him, his eyes softened unconsciously.

Entering Dongshi again, Gu Caiwei quickly found another medicinal herb shop, and quickly ordered a pack of Chuanwu, Caowu, scorpion, centipede, and earthworm.Wrapping up these poisons into a bag, she threw it backhand into Du Juanqing's hand as usual, and continued to stroll happily.

In the end, besides the medicinal materials she needed, she also bought a fan, two clay dolls for Du Yi, a belt for Du Junqing, and a bunch of gadgets for herself.These things were all piled on the back of Du Juanqing's tall horse.A bunch of brightly colored things made the horse look gaudy, and the man on the horse had no airs.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing just frowned, got on his horse and went home.

Back home, Gu Caiwei gave him the gadgets for Du Yi, and Du Yi immediately held them in his arms like a baby, unwilling to let go of any of them.He looked at the belt in Du Juanqing's hand again, and looked over triumphantly: "Father, she bought me more things than you!"

"I know." Du Juan replied coldly, "But she bought more for herself than for the two of us combined."

Moreover, it was his money!

"I know this!" Du Yi waved his hand casually, "That's the kind of person she is! She treats others well, but treats herself better, and never treats herself badly. This is very good. Seeing her happy makes me feel happy." So happy."

By the way, knowing that his position in her heart is much higher than Father's, he is even happier!He didn't dare to say that.

But if he didn't say it, wouldn't Du Juanqing know?

His eyes darkened, and he turned around immediately. "I'm leaving, you can play with these little things yourself!"

After finishing speaking, the man turned around and left, but he still tightly held the belt that Gu Caiwei had chosen for him.

After buying the medicinal materials, Gu Caiwei locked herself in the room and dealt with them for a whole day and night before processing all the medicinal materials and putting them into wine to soak them one by one.However, if the thing is soaked, you have to wait at least half a month before you can drink it.

Hearing that the medicinal wine was ready, Du Yi and Du Junqing both came to see it.

"Wow, he still has centipede and scorpion here!" Du Yi saw it, and he immediately shouted.

"Of course. Although these things are poisonous, they are very effective in dispelling dampness and numbness. As long as they are processed properly to remove the toxicity and then combined with wine, the effect will be more obvious." Gu Caiwei explained to him seriously.

"So that's the case, I know!" Du Yi nodded quickly.

Du Juanqing looked at the very clear and translucent wine in the vat in front of him. "What kind of wine is this? I've never seen anything so clear and almost colorless."

"My wine is a good thing, it's not sold on the market!" Gu Caiwei immediately raised her chin proudly.

Liuli also added at this time: "This wine is the result of my wife first buying the wine from outside, and then processing and purifying it herself. So the impurities in the wine are almost filtered out, and the wine looks more natural. Pure and translucent. Moreover, the taste of this wine is much better than ordinary wine, but it makes people drunk faster. Even if it is the best-selling wine on the market now, it is comparable to the wine made by my wife. It’s too far behind to get up!”

"Well, then give me an altar too." Du Juanqing said immediately.

Liuli was startled, and Gu Caiwei became angry. "You say you want to have a jar of wine? Do you know how much effort it took me to make such a small jar of wine?"

"You must have made more than this tank." Du Juanqing only said.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "You know it again!"

"Of course." Du Juan nodded firmly.

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "I don't like you more and more. My little secret is not a secret in front of you at all, and you can see it clearly at a glance."

It's a bad feeling, she doesn't like it!

Du Juanqing's lips curled up slightly.He looked at Du Yi again: "The day after tomorrow is your day off, when that time comes, let's go out to the city for an outing."

"Okay, okay!" When Du Yi heard this, he immediately jumped up and applauded.

Then he turned back and took Gu Caiwei's hand, he was overjoyed. "Did you hear that, Dad actually wants to go out with us for an outing!"

"I heard it." Gu Caiwei said coolly.

Anyway, this man really keeps his word, as long as he goes out now, he will follow him, no matter how big or small it is.So this time she had agreed with Du Yi to go out to play, and he would definitely follow.However, before she could say it, this man had already proposed it, which surprised her a little.

Gu Caiwei asked Du Juanqing: "Master Hou, why did you have the pleasure to go out to play this time? I thought your greatest pleasure was to lock yourself in the study and be in a daze!"

"Go for a walk while you still have time. Otherwise, there will be no chance in the future." Du Juanqing only replied.

Gu Caiwei was taken aback when she heard the words, and she understood what this man meant - when the news about the iron mine was spread, he would definitely be busy.At that time, I will definitely not even be able to take care of my family, so where will I have time to play with my children?So, taking advantage of the opportunity now, he must seize the time to create some good memories for Du Yi.

And Du Yi was indeed overjoyed because of this news.

"That's great! In the past, Dad would only accompany me when I was going to see a doctor. He never played with me!" He was still screaming happily.

The child has a natural admiration for his father, but because Du Juanqing deliberately suppressed it before, Du Yi can only hide his feelings in his heart.But now, once he was given a chance, he released it without reservation.Now, the whole child is full of joy, and the little face is full of smiles, making him look much more lively.

He really yearned to go out and play with Du Juanqing.

Seeing this, even if Gu Caiwei felt a little unhappy, she couldn't say it out loud.After all, she really couldn't bear to say something that hurt him in front of such a innocent and expectant little face.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye.

Soon came the day when Du Yat would take a rest.The three of them got up before dawn, washed up briefly, and had breakfast before getting into their carriages.

Because it was a trip out of the city, Du Yi did not ride with Gu Caiwei, but rode on his pony and followed Du Juanqing closely. The father and son led the way for her.

Until now, the smile on this little guy's face has not disappeared, but it became brighter when he set off today.

Liuli saw it, and she couldn't help whispering to Gu Caiwei. "Lady, the prince really likes Lord Hou! In fact, Master Hou also loves the prince in his heart, but he doesn't know how to express his love."

"Yeah, this father and son is just so awkward." Gu Caiwei nodded.

Liuli immediately covered her mouth and smiled again. "However, since you came here, my lady, they have all gotten better. Look, don't Hou Ye already know that he wants to bring his son out to play and cultivate the relationship between father and son?"

Gu Caiwei looked out through the car window, and she saw the father and son walking side by side.Du Yi's small body was sitting on the back of a small horse, and his figure swayed a few times from time to time, but this could not stop his urge to take a look at Father every so often.

"It's disgusting." After watching for a while, Gu Caiwei put down the curtain, turned around and cursed bitterly, "The little toy that I managed to get fat was just snatched away by him. If I had known this, I really shouldn't Talk to him so much!"

Liuli just covered her mouth and smiled, not speaking.

Soon, their chariots and horses arrived at a beautiful place outside the city.

It is now the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and there are lush greenery everywhere. The weather is a bit hot but the sun is not too harsh. It is a good time to go out for an outing.

Du Juanqing, Du Yi and his son looked around, and finally chose a relatively remote grassland with almost no people, and asked someone to put up the tent first.

When Du Yi was very curious, when he saw people setting up tents, he ran around and wanted to help.

By the time the tent was set up, the sun was already almost overhead.Du Yi quickly grabbed Gu Caiwei's hand: "Come on, let's go fishing!"

"Fishing is something that tests patience. I can't do it. Let your father go! I see a small river ditch ahead, let's catch loach." Gu Caiwei said.

"Okay!" As long as there is something to play, Du Yi doesn't care what to do, anyway, he can just follow what Gu Caiwei says!

Then, the two of them held hands and headed to the small river ditch ahead, leaving Du Juanqing as a living person behind.

Seeing this scene, Du Juanqing's eyes darkened again.

When the servant at the side saw this, he shrank his shoulders again in fright. "Lord Hou..."

Du Juanqing just looked at him. "Where's the fishing rod? Are you ready?"

"Ready, ready!" The servant nodded quickly, and hurriedly brought over the fishing rod. Du Juanqing held it in his hand, and obediently went fishing with a cold face.

Over there, Gu Caiwei dragged Du Yi to the edge of the ditch. After observing carefully around the small river, she arranged a task for Du Yi: "Go find some thicker branches, at least this thick and long. .”

She made a gesture, and Du Yi hurriedly nodded and went to look for it.

When he got the things back, Gu Caiwei had already set up a place with shallow water, and then told Du Yi to come and help her pull the net, and the two of them used the branches Du Yi found to fix the net on both sides of the small river ditch, from After everything was settled up and down, she waved to Liuli over there again: "Okay, let's get started!"

"okay!"

Liuli cheerfully agreed, immediately rolled up her skirt and jumped into the upstream water, and started to chase the small fish in the water.

As she walked towards this side as she drove, the originally calm water surface gradually became lively.When they got close to the net, there were even a few small fish jumping out of the water, and their vigorous figure made Du Yi clap his hands: "There are really fish here! We will have some fish to eat soon!"

"This is just the beginning!" Gu Caiwei smiled at him, then lifted her skirt and jumped into the water.

"Oh, don't..." Seeing this, Du Yi originally wanted to pull her.Seeing her like this, his heart moved, he simply took off his shoes and jumped down.

"Look, Lord Hou!" Seeing this, the waiter next to Du Juanqing hurriedly called Du Yi.

Du Yi looked back, and he turned back again. "Being with her, this child will turn wild sooner or later, I have expected it." He continued to stare intently at the calm water in front of him.

And over there, as Gu Caiwei and Du Yi jumped into the water, the fish in the water jumped even more happily.It's just that since they have been driven to the shallow water area, and there are containment in front and back, they can't jump out no matter how hard they jump.

Ah Zhong took the fish basket to pick it up, Gu Caiwei first showed Du Yi how to catch fish, and then Du Yi joined in clumsily.

A few people hurriedly caught these small fish and put them in the basket, and then scooped out all the water in this small puddle, and then started the highlight of the day - catching loaches!

"Oh, why are you so stupid? Let alone put your hands in the mud and touch slowly? You don't even put your hands in, you can touch a ghost!"

"Also, if you find a loach, you have to catch it quickly, don't hesitate, or the loach will run away!"

"You are so stupid! The loach can run away if you catch it in the palm of your hand. That's how you catch it? Take a good look at how I caught it!"

……

From the beginning to the end, Gu Caiwei's yelling and cursing echoed in the small ditch. Du Yi whispered a few words at the beginning, but in the end he didn't even say a word, just honestly followed Caiwei's order to catch loaches .

Du Juanqing's servant couldn't stand listening anymore. "Master Hou, why don't you help the prince?"

"Ben Hou has gone, and she will scold her even worse." Du Juan said coldly.

He can't catch fish.Moreover, Gu Caiwei's attitude towards him was even more rude, so he would not seek to humiliate himself.

As soon as the words fell, the yufu on the water suddenly moved, and he quickly pulled the rope up vigorously, and saw a crucian carp the size of a palm was caught.

"Okay, Master Hou, you have caught a fish!" Seeing this, the servant quickly shouted happily.

And Du Yi's shout came from the ditch over there: "I caught the loach! I finally caught it!"

For a while, both father and son were smiling and in a good mood.

After catching the loach, Du Yi had already become a little clay figurine.But the thick layer of mud on his face could not conceal the smile on his face, and he specially held the small basket filled with half a basket of loach to Du Junqing: "Look, daddy, there is a loach here! I caught three of them!"

"I only caught three, what's there to show off?" Du Juan snorted coldly.

Du Yi's mouth shrunk. "Then dad, how many fish did you catch?"

Du Juan paused. "One."

"Then Dad, you are not as good as me!" Du Yi immediately cheered up again, "However, the two of us are still not as good as her. She and Liuli caught so many loaches, and there are five or six more." Little fish. By the way, Hei Feng is also very powerful, he just plunges into the water, and when he comes out, there will be an extra fish in his mouth, sometimes even two!"

"In this respect, she is indeed very powerful." Du Juanqing had to admit.

Du Yi nodded quickly again, and then there was a rumbling sound in his stomach, he was hungry.

Gu Caiwei had already changed her clothes and came out.Hearing the sound in Du Yi's stomach, she couldn't help but smiled: "Don't you hurry to wash your face and change your clothes? After changing, come and help me light the fire."

"Okay!" It should be because she was used to being enslaved by her, so now that he heard her say that, Du Yi was not angry at all, but happily agreed, and hurried into the tent to change clothes.

Gu Caiwei handed these freshly caught fish and loach to Liuli to cut and clean them first.She then removed the bones of the fish that Du Juanqing caught and the small fish they caught, leaving only the flesh, and then used a knife to thinly slice it into hair-thick slices, and put them on a plate.Then prepare the ginger, garlic and salt sauce and other seasonings. This is the dipping sauce for dipping the fish.

At this time, Liuli had already dealt with the loach.Then Du Yi lit the small stove, waited for the rice soup in the pot to boil, then put the loach into it, added wine and garlic and boiled it, then sprinkled in a little salt to taste, a pot of fragrant loach soup was ready up.

There are wild vegetables everywhere around here, and Gu Caiwei dug up several handfuls of tender and juicy ones without much effort.Clean the wild vegetables, stir-fry one directly, knead some with flour to make small balls, and then put them in the oil pan to fry. All kinds of flavors are blended together, and the taste of spring is in the mouth.

There are vegetables and soup, plus a pot of stewed vegetables and rice, this is their lunch.

When the food was on the table, Du Yi hurriedly yelled that he was starving to death, and hurriedly grabbed the rice bowl and started to eat.

Looking at his voracious eating, how can he look like a person who would throw up in the dark even after drinking an extra sip of water?

Du Juanqing was still the same as in the Hou Mansion.He slowly picked up a piece of fish stick, dipped it in the sauce and put it into his mouth, and then said slowly: "The fish is very fresh, but the river fish always has an earthy smell."

"That's natural, especially if it grows up in the wild, the earthy smell will be stronger. Even if it is suppressed with seasoning, it is impossible to suppress it all. But the taste is not bad anyway." Gu Caiwei said with a smile, and just picked it up for Du Yi took a slice.

Du Juan frowned, but when he saw Du Yi eat the piece of fish without hesitation, his frown tightened even more.

"Ayi, don't you think it's a bit fishy?" He asked in a low voice.

"It's a bit." Du Yi licked his lips in recollection, "But it's still delicious!"

Du Juanqing looked at Gu Caiwei again, and Gu Caiwei smiled and said: "He grabbed these things with his own hands, which means a lot to him. So even if the method is rough, he has a psychological bonus. The mind controls the body , then you won’t feel sick and want to vomit, but you will eat more and more delicious. That’s why I took him down the river to catch loach by myself.”

Hearing this, Du Juanqing stared deeply at her for a long time before scooping up a bowl of loach soup for his son.

"Thank you daddy!" Du Yi saw it, his face flushed with excitement, and he picked up the bowl and started to eat.

Seeing his son's appetite increased, Du Juanqing's mood improved a lot, and he also enjoyed eating much more happily.

Just as the few of them were eating and talking and laughing, there was a sudden scream from Liuli - "My God, why are there snakes here?"
