The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 625

No, when the "Fierce Dragon" first docked at the pier, firecrackers were fired on the shore early in the morning, and the gongs and drums were loud.The officers and soldiers on the battleship thought they were here to welcome them.

Fortunately, Chu Xu was still sober, especially when he saw many local officials and generals, it was not so much a celebration of the victory of the 'Fierce Dragon', but a welcome for the presence of the two princes!
Everyone not only warmly welcomed the arrival of the two princes, but also warmly invited them to settle down in their respective places. After all, the seaside is not very safe. Secondly, the environment here is windy, windy and salty, so it is really not suitable for long-term residence.

The two princes did suffer a lot along the way. Thinking about not being able to take a bath happily in the future, and not wanting to eat fish and shrimp in the sea, they were a little shaken.

It is difficult for Chu Xu to say anything about this, but the preparations that need to be made are the same. The house that needs to be cleaned up is cleaned up, and the manpower that needs to be dispatched is also pointed out. As long as they do not leave the military port, there will always be no less than a hundred people around the two princes of the guard.

After some hesitation, the tenth prince still made up his mind, and he said: "Father once told us that we are here to practice coastal defense with Lord General, not to have fun, and we should be together with Lord General. It’s just that there are so many things going on now, it’s a bit of a hindrance for us to be here. Why don’t you go to the county prince’s mansion to bother for a while, and when everything is settled here, it won’t be too late for us to come back.” Naturally, the Twelfth Prince had no objection.

Therefore, Chu Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, the ten princes are not ignorant at such a young age.In this way, he can go all out to deal with the affairs of the military port.

After a busy day, Chu Xu returned to the inner house of the Admiral's Office, bathed in the sea breeze and under the starlight.

The dishes on the table are all made by Yingying herself, crispy chicken, fried bacon with artemisia annua, cold and hot and sour lotus root slices, roasted eggplant with minced meat in sauce, a large bowl of chicken noodle soup, ten venison pies, Chu He was sweating profusely after eating, and breathed freely.For these few days, he has been cooking with the soldiers all the time, and he has long been tired of eating.

When Shi Chuying saw that he had puffed his stomach, she turned around and took out a small pot of truffle wine, and poured it for Chu Xu.

The clear and sweet aroma of the wine came to the nostrils, and Chu Xu took a few deep breaths of the aroma.Although he is not fond of alcohol, but he has been greedy for not drinking for such a long time.Right now, his beloved wife personally ordered a jug of good wine, and before he drank it, Chu Xu was already dizzy.

"Yingying!" Chu Xu smiled, looked deeply at Yingying with obvious intentions, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and his eyes drifted to the glass again.

Although Shi Chuying felt sorry for his hard work in the past few days, she still felt a little hot when faced with such a cheeky hint.Fortunately, there is not much wine in a pot, and it will bottom out after pouring five glasses.

Chu Xu was full of wine and food, and when the two finally fell asleep on a stable bed, it was inevitable that they would talk about the day's events.

"...Even local officials speak mandarin with a strong seafood flavor, let alone other people. You will understand when you have time to go to the market someday. It is best to let the people in the mansion hurry up Learn a few commonly used phrases, lest you be deceived when you buy anything."

Chu Xu sneered a few times, and said again: "It's lucky that these low-level officials won't be able to come to Beijing, otherwise they wouldn't just be kicked down!"

One of the basic requirements for the selection of officials by Da Chu is to be able to speak a relatively standard official dialect!Even if you pass the Jinshi No. 1 exam, if the emperor can't understand what you say during the imperial examination, you can still pass it!

It is estimated that these magistrates were originally fluent in official language, perhaps because they stayed in this place for a long time and were gradually assimilated.

Shi Chuying is also very fortunate now, having invited some good gentlemen from the capital.Otherwise, five years is enough time for young children to learn a dialect, and then want to change back to Mandarin, haha, I'm afraid it will be difficult!
"Also, after the settlement is settled, maybe the wives of those officials should post a post to visit. If you don't understand each other by then, hehehe..."

Shi Chuying felt that Chu Xu was more gloating, so she poked him on the waist, and hummed: "If you want to worry, it's theirs to worry about. There is no one like me, the general's wife, to accommodate them."

"Well, that's right!" Chu Xu praised, "From now on, we'll just take out this money here, and it's the same for anyone. It's really annoying and doesn't understand."

Shi Chuying thought for a while and understood what Chu Xu meant.She nodded and said: "You have to say hello to the tenth prince and the twelfth prince, lest you become a boss. Although we are not afraid of anything, there is no need to leave any pimples for nothing." In the end Was it because the servants in her house were not good, or was someone else instigating, Shi Chuying didn't investigate, because the result was more important than the reason at that time.

Chu Xu let out a 'hmm' and said: "I've heard about it in the barracks before, and I mentioned it to the two princes, it's really not good for those who haven't been strictly checked to enter the barracks, let alone get close to the princes at will. They all understand.

It's our steward who made a mistake, and I'm accompaniment. Now that everyone is in their hands, it's not difficult to ask for anything with the methods of a palace eunuch. "There's something really, I'm afraid there's no need to leave any meat scraps.

While talking, Chu Xu groped over with his hand, and the slight smell of alcohol sprayed into Shi Chuying's ear, "Yingying~ Yingying!" He whispered to mate.The two of them hadn't been together for a long time, let alone Chu Xu, Shi Chuying also missed him.
