Chapter 436 Getting to Know Gu Xiaoqi
Shen Yunyue nodded calmly, "Okay. It won't bother you anymore."
She and Fu Xuanheng came outside.
It is more lively to eat barbecue outside, and the wind vents in the pavilion have been surrounded by curtains.
There is also a brazier on top.
The chairs inside were padded with cushions, and Bayan came over with a blanket.
"Ma'am, you sit down and cover yourself with a blanket."
Seeing that Bayanian suddenly understood everything, Shen Yunyue couldn't help but say:
"Are you so attentive all of a sudden?"
Bayan's face darkened.
"I was afraid that Sister Mu Ya would come to me in the middle of the night and scold me. She taught me so many times how to serve the Madam. But I relied on their presence and was not as careful as them."
"I also want to tell her that I will take good care of the lady as she wishes."
Bayan knew Mu Ya's loyalty.
She and Chunhe and several other maids were very nice to Mu Ya.
Shen Yunyue nodded in understanding.
Sat in the pavilion.
Fu Xuanheng sat over and the water on the small stove next to him boiled.
The water used to make tea now is all from Shen Yunyue's space.
There are guests living on both sides.
The guest on the right is from the Xiliang royal family, while the guest on the left is dressed like someone from the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He is just a guard, and it is impossible to tell where he comes from.
Fu Xuanheng was soaking in the green tea on the top of the snow.
The fragrance was light and subtle, spreading to the courtyards on both sides.
A voice from Xiliang came from the left. "Who the hell is brewing tea in the yard? It smells so good, are they trying to entice us to buy tea?"
"Yesterday, I met a few merchants from Dazhou and Fujian at the entrance of the teahouse. They said they had brought some tea that they couldn't sell, and since I looked like a blessed person, they wanted to give it to me."
"I thought those guys had good taste, so I accepted their kindness. But who knew those bastards would ask me to give each of them some money for noodles."
"I gave them one ounce of silver each. The person who gave me the tea also said that the people next to me were also from the same hometown."
"I gave him ten taels of silver. I knew something was wrong. Why did another fellow villager show up? I got angry and left with the tea leaves."
Shen Yunyue held back her laughter as she listened to the man complain.
"When I went back to check, the top was tea leaves, and the bottom was tree leaves. He was a fraud."
"Hahaha, where's the tea?"
The man cried and said, "Here."
"Damn. Not worth five taels."
"I smelled the fragrance from next door, and I wanted to ask. How much is this fragrant tea per ounce?"
Silence.
Shen Yunyue said loudly:
"Three thousand taels of silver for one tael. This is snow-capped emerald green. A year's harvest is only ten kilograms, and you have to risk your life to go to the snow-capped mountains to pick it before the New Year."
A series of exclamations came from next door.
Fu Xuanheng pointed at the table.
Shen Yunyue understood.
The guest on the right is more mysterious and has great martial arts skills. He can feel the pressure from the strong man.
Shen Yunyue asked quietly:
"Where are you from?"
Fu Xuanheng shook his head.
"have no idea."
It's time to grill.
An Yi and a few others placed the barbecue grill in the yard, near the pavilion.
Roast pork belly, ribs, lamb and beef together.
Lettuce and basil were placed on the table.
Bayian took down the tea tray.
Bring the beer and pear blossoms over.
The guards in the neighboring courtyard were all dazed. Were these people coming to Wanjian Villa? Or were they here to eat and drink?
Why is there no sense of urgency?
The first thing many people do when they arrive in Wanjian Town is to inquire.
The first plate of pork belly was served.
Shen Yunyue wrapped some lettuce and ate it.
Fu Xuanheng ate the meat with big mouthfuls.
Yingfeng and Anwu were grilling and eating. Bayian was helping out on the side, while Anyi and Aner were grilling and drinking with Shen Yunyue and the others.
The guard beside him: ...?
An Er glanced at his neighbor next door who was staring at the barbecue grill without moving.
Grabbing a handful of lamb skewers, he asked, "How many would you like?"
"Thank you very much."
The man landed on the wall with a single step. An Er handed it over and inadvertently saw a wolf tattoo on the man's wrist.
That wolf looks familiar.
The man squatted on the wall holding a bamboo stick and showed off his skills until he was pulled down.
Someone in the courtyard of Xiliang Kingdom also climbed over the wall.
"Hey, neighbor, do you need help with your barbecue?"
The man stared intently at the fire beside him, where there was a roasted whole lamb.
An Er: ...?
Dark Five: ...?
What's going on?
"Don't you have barbecue in Xiliang?"
"Yes. But it's not as delicious as yours." The bearded man saw An Wu sprinkle something on the skewers, and a special fragrance immediately came to his nose.
"Haha, this is our secret seasoning."
An Er laughed out loud.
Bearded Man: ... "Let me help you?" He tentatively stretched a foot into the yard.
An Er listened attentively to Fu Xuanheng's instructions.
Seeing Fu Xuanheng agreed, he nodded. "Come in."
The bearded man fell down in excitement.
He fell flat on his face.
There was silence at the scene.
The bearded man stood up and spat, "It was just an accident, just an accident."
Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng had their own reasons for asking the people next door to come over.
The people in these two courtyards were obviously not here for the first time.
Two groups of royal family members came from Xiliang.
How much do they know about Wanjian Villa?
The bearded man got the hang of it quickly and kept eating skewers in his mouth.
The speed was so fast that the usually generous An Er immediately drove the man away.
"Go back quickly."
"If you eat like this, we won't have any barbecue to eat."
Bearded Man: .... I feel so wronged. I haven't eaten enough.
The nine-foot tall man showed a pitiful expression and asked, "Should I ask someone to buy a few sheep?"
An Er sighed.
"Forget it. We still have ribs in the kitchen."
"I'll cut the ribs for you." The bearded man came to the kitchen door in a hurry but did not go in.
But waiting for others to take it out.
He was afraid that if someone poisoned him once he got in, he wouldn't be able to explain himself. He was just a little greedy and often got cheated.
The guard being dragged in on the right.
He was dragged into the house.
"Master, this guy is squatting on the wall and eating happily." The person who spoke had already snatched away a handful of mutton skewers and the used bamboo sticks.
Sitting in the room was a man in black brocade clothes.
He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and he looked very imposing. He stared at the skewers in his subordinate's hand and asked, "What is this?"
"Grilled skewers."
The guard, who was still savoring the aroma of the skewers, looked at them eagerly and told them everything he knew.
"I think these people are here for sightseeing."
"Master, there are many things I have never seen before."
“And green leafy vegetables.”
The man raised his eyebrows and asked, "Green vegetables?"
"You used to say that..."
The guard nodded and left.
Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng sat together, a blanket draped over her, while a charcoal fire burned in the pavilion.
She sipped her beer.
“It tastes better iced.”
There was a quiet sound outside. Shen Yunyue listened briefly and looked at Fu Xuanheng suspiciously.
Fu Xuanheng nodded.
"An Er, then please ask him to come over."
"yes."
"The master in the right yard?" Shen Yunyue asked back.
"Um."
After a while.
A man in black brocade clothes landed on the wall next to him and said in a vigorous voice:
"My name is Gu Xiaoqi, also known as the Seventh Young Master in the martial arts world."
"Fu Xuanheng, my love Shen Yunyue." Fu Xuanheng made a gesture of invitation.
Gu Xiaoqi sat opposite Fu Xuanheng.
"Beer or Lihuabai?"
Gu Xiaoqi: ...? If he says he's never heard of beer, will he be laughed at for being ignorant?
"An Yi, bring two cups to the Seventh Young Master. One for each of them."
"yes."
An Yi stood up, took a glass, poured a glass of beer, and placed a glass of pear blossom white on the table.
Fu Xuanheng and Shen Yunyue were silently looking at Gu Xiaoqi.
Gu Xiaoqi also looked at them silently.
After a few drinks.
Opened up the conversation.
Gu Xiaoqi explained his purpose, which was to come to Wanjian Villa to bid for a weapon.
He whispered:
"This demon-slaying sword is tempered by heavenly fire. And it's purple heavenly fire, which only appears once in a thousand years."
Shen Yunyue: ...? Purple lightning?
