Chapter 972 Twins

Qiandao Lake is surrounded by mountains, and the mountains in the distance are winding and undulating, continuous. Because it came out relatively early, the fog had not dissipated at this time, and the islands in various poses and with different expressions appeared extraordinarily mysterious in the clouds and fog.

Suddenly a group of egrets swooped down from the sky and landed in the lake, causing waves of ripples. And the water in this lake is neither green nor blue, but green as blue, which is very magical.

Sitting on the boat, Qiyou watched the scene in front of him, and couldn't help saying, "Brother Hua, I think this place is much more beautiful than the Qinhuai River."

Brother Hua said: "Each has its own characteristics."

Qiyou turned to look at Yu Zhi and said, "That's right, I heard that the Qinhuai River is the most beautiful at night. Yu Zhi, let's take a night tour of the Qinhuai River when we get back to Jinling!"

Yu Zhi refused without even thinking about it: "No, it's too dangerous to go out at night." Qinhuai River has not only lanterns at night, but also painted boats, and he won't let Brother Yu go.

Brother You said depressingly: "It's a pity that I didn't take a night tour of the Qinhuai River when I arrived in Jinling."

Yu Zhi didn't speak.

At this time, the sun came out. The sun is shining on the endless lake, which is very beautiful.

Brother Yu looked at the lake and said with a smile: "We will go fishing in the river later, and we will have braised fish, steamed fish, and boiled fish for lunch. What do you think?"

Brother Hua smiled and said, "As long as you are not tired, I'm fine." They were going to eat on the boat at noon, so they brought a cook, rice and vegetables.

Yu Zhi said coolly: "If you think well, it depends on how many fish you can catch?"

Brother Yu said: "Let's make a bet, if I catch ten fish, you will let me swim the Qinhuai River at night."

Yu Zhi didn't take Brother Yu's words. I want to dig a hole for him to jump in, but I'm a little too tender.

Han Yunzhe, who followed, saw Qiyou sitting on the bow of the boat fishing for a long time, stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the sun is so bright, I'd better get in the boat and rest, don't get sunburned!" The sun at the end of June is not Just kidding, prolonged sun exposure can range from sunburn to heat stroke.

Qiyou laughed and said, "What is this little heat? During the dog days, our four brothers are still practicing under the sun!" After a pause, Qiyou said, "Our brothers are not the delicate young masters like Jiangnan." Like him Second cousin, a big man even had powder on his face, whenever Qiyou thought about it, he would feel a chill. It was also because he was the older brother of Brother Hua's mother, that Qiyou didn't say anything.

At this moment, the float shook. Seeing this, Brother Yu hurriedly lifted the fishing rod up, only to see a bare hook with no bait.

Qiyou said angrily: "It's all your fault. If you hadn't distracted me, I would have caught fish." After sitting for half an hour, a fish finally took the bait and didn't catch it. So depressing.

Han Yunzhe didn't dare to speak anymore.

With a snap, a two-pound carp was thrown onto the deck. The fish scales still glowed silver under the sun.

"Hmph..." Brother Yu took a look, then turned his head and continued to stare at his fishing rod. As a result, Brother Yu only caught three small fish over two inches long in one morning.

Han Yunzhe didn't dare to go forward at this time, he was afraid that Brother Yu would turn his anger on him, but he didn't expect Brother Yu to cheerfully say that he wanted to cook grilled fish.

Yu Zhi said with a stern face: "Lunch is already ready, I'll cook the grilled fish in the afternoon!"

Brother Yu didn't want to wait until the afternoon, the fish would not be fresh, and it wouldn't taste good if it was grilled: "Then use it to make fish soup to drink!" Three fish can also make a small bowl of fish soup.

Hearing this, Han Yunzhe hurriedly stepped forward to take down the fish and ordered the cook to make fish soup.

After swimming in Qiandao Lake, it was already dark when we returned to the inn. Qiyou took a shower and asked Yu Zhi, "Do you think we are going to Huangshan or Shaoxing!"

Yu Zhi would not make up his mind for Qi You: "You decide for yourself.

"He is only responsible for Qiyou's safety, but he doesn't care where he goes to play.

Qiyou struggled for a long time, and finally said: "Let's go to Shaoxing! I heard that the Great Buddha Temple and Kuaiji Mountain in Shaoxing are very good." Although Yuxi didn't set a time for him, he must go home before winter.

Brother Hua said: "Shaoxing is not far from Yongcheng, we can go to see the sea then." Brother Hua has never seen the sea since he grew up.

Qiyou clapped his hands and said very happily: "Brother Hua has a good idea. I heard that the sea is endless, and the water is as blue as sapphire. This time I will definitely open my eyes." Next time I come to Jiangnan, I don't know. It is the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

The group went to Shaoxing first, and the deepest impression left on Qiyou in Shaoxing was not the scenic spots but the snacks, which made Brother You linger and forget to return. In particular, a stinky tofu called Yu Ji is really Qiyou's favorite!

On this day, Qiyou went to Yuji again to eat stinky tofu. Yu Ji's stinky tofu shop is in a small alley, and they wouldn't be able to find it if they didn't find a local guide.

Brother Yu sighed while eating: "It's a pity that this thing can't be taken home, if not, let mother taste it."

Yu Zhi said expressionlessly: "Don't be sorry, the princess won't eat this."

Qiyou didn't refute, but just sighed: "Second sister and elder brother are both like mothers in this way, they are so ugly." If they are not nutritious, they will be harmful to the body, no matter how delicious they are, they will not touch them.

Yu Zhi didn't respond to his words.

Brother Yu took another bite of the stinky tofu, um, it was stinky, but the aftertaste was endless. Speaking of it, it's still comfortable outside, unlike eating at home where you can't eat to your heart's content, there are many rules set by his mother. Outside, eat as much as you want.

Seeing Yu Zhi standing beside him, Brother Yu said, "Yu Zhi, you can eat two yuan too!"

Yu Zhi shook his head and said, "I don't eat this thing." Even if Brother You praised this thing so much that it is hard to find in the sky, Yu Zhi was not moved at all. If he wasn't worried about Brother Yu's safety, he would have run out long ago.

After eating half full, Qiyou called the guide and asked: "Is there anything else that is particularly delicious, take me there." In Pickaxe City, Qiyou always went to find delicious food by himself. But this time I didn't have enough time to play, so I had to find a guide.

Seeing that Qiyou called him, the guide hurried forward and said, "The Liu family's fish skin chaos is very delicious, and the small ones have to go there every three to five times." Authentic, really delicious snacks are hidden in the streets and alleys, which is why he is looking for a guide.

Of course, the guide was not found casually, but the local prefect, and asked the prefect to recommend him.

Qiyou rubbed his stomach: "Go for a stroll in the street, and then eat Chaos."

Walking out of the small alley, Qiyou habitually swept around. His gaze finally fell on a man in a gray shirt with a brown belt around his waist, and the man was holding a pole in his pocket. This kind of dress is usually a porter.

Realizing that Qiyou was looking at him, the man jumped very nervously, he took two steps back, and his neck couldn't help shrinking inward.

Hearing that Qiyou asked the big man in gray to come over, Yu Zhi asked, "Is there something wrong with this guy?"

Han Yunzhe felt strange when he heard this, and looked up at Qiyou, but he quickly lowered his head when he realized that his behavior was wrong.

Qiyou shook his head and said, "No problem, I just want to ask him something."

Yu Zhi nodded and let the man in gray come over. Every time Qiyou went to a place, he would find a few ordinary people to ask some questions, such as whether the officials were clean and honest, and whether the harvest was good this year and so on. According to Brother Yu, this is to understand the local people's sentiments, so that he can explain to his mother when he goes back, showing that he is not just playing blindly.

When the guide heard Qiyou's question from the side, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. Qiyou has given him the feeling in the past few days that he is a spoiled child who only knows how to eat, drink and play. This scene in front of him completely overturned his previous thinking.

The man in gray answered Qiyou's various questions tremblingly, shaking his head if he didn't know.

A quarter of an hour later, Qiyou nodded in satisfaction, took a look at Brother Hua, and took Yu Zhi away.

Brother Hua handed him a piece of silver and said, "This is what our young master rewarded you."

The man in gray was stunned, he had never seen such a big silver ingot before!

Seeing the silver in his hands, the gray-clothed man's eyes widened. After Brother Hua left, he came back to his senses, grabbed the pole on the ground as fast as he could and ran home.

Yu Zhi said: "Fourth young master, when are you going to Yongcheng?" They usually stay in one place for five to six days. Unless Brother Yu asked to stay for a few more days.

Qiyou thought for a while and said, "The day after tomorrow!" After speaking, he threw a fennel bean into his mouth and began to chew.

After eating, Qiyou said: "This fennel bean tastes very good. It's a good thing to drink with. Dad will definitely like it."

The next day, Qiyou went to the alley to eat stinky tofu again. Outside the alley, Qiyou found many men in gray clothes holding poles.

Qiyou laughed and said, "Are you waiting for me to give you a reward?" Every time you ask someone for a question, you will be rewarded, and the more you give or the less depends on your mood. Looking at the situation, I'm afraid Brother Hua gave a lot yesterday.

Thinking of this, Qiyou turned his head and asked Brother Hua: "How much reward did you give yesterday?"

Hearing that ten taels of silver was rewarded, Qiyou smiled and said: "No wonder they are all waiting here." These people may not be able to earn ten taels of silver after working hard for a year.

Brother Hua explained: "That man's clothes are all patched up, and his face looks miserable. I guess his family must be having a hard time." Looking at that man yesterday, Brother Hua didn't know why he thought of running away from famine in the past It was the time of day, so I gave ten taels of silver for a soft heart.

Brother You said with a smile: "No need to explain, anyway, you have money, ten taels of silver is nothing to you." Normally, when he rewards silver, he always gives one or two taels of silver. Just answering a few questions, one or two taels of silver is already a lot.

Under Yuxi's words and deeds, the children are all stingy, but the degree of stinginess is different.

"Okay." Han Jianming felt that when a boy got older, it would cost money to socialize and socialize, and the monthly routine was not enough. So starting five years ago, Han Jianming gave Hua Geer a sum of money every year for his expenses.

Yu Zhi called a guard and said, "Go and evacuate the people." There are so many people here, it's not safe.

After entering the alley, the group walked to the stinky tofu stand. For Qiyou's safety, Yu Zhi asked the other guests to leave, and they paid for the food they ate at the stall, which was considered compensation.

After half an hour, the boss brought up the fried stinky tofu.

Qiyou was talking to Brother Hua, when he smelled the fragrance, he turned his head and happened to see the boss's face.

Almost instantly, Qiyou leaned back. Yu Zhi reacted very quickly, and said loudly, "Catch it."

As soon as these words fell, the guards immediately divided into two groups. One group arrested the shop owner, and the other group surrounded Brother Yu.

The shop owner was quickly pressed to the ground and his mouth was removed. This is also because he is afraid that he will hide poison in his mouth and bite his tongue to kill himself later.

The leader of the guards reached out and rubbed his face vigorously. But after rubbing for a long time, I couldn't rub off a layer of skin as I wished.

The leader of the guard walked up to Qiyou and said, "Young master, this person has no disguise."

Qiyou said without thinking, "Impossible, I'm sure he's not the shop owner."

Hearing this, Yu Zhi stepped forward and rubbed the boss's face, then said to Qiyou, "This face is real."

Brother Hua said: "Search."

From the strands of hair to the heels, nothing was found except a money bag.

The store owner struggled, as if he had something to say. Seeing this, Qiyou said: "Let him talk." He wanted to know what was going on.

The store owner said tremblingly: "My brother and I jointly opened this store, but he has always been the one who runs the stall. He developed a high fever this morning, so he asked me to run the stall."

Qiyou immediately understood: "You are identical twins."

The store owner nodded hurriedly, "Yes."

Yu Zhi's face was very cold, and he said, "Why didn't you explain to us just now?" If he had explained the situation to them, there would be no such shock.

The store owner said with a mournful face, "I didn't think so much."

Qiyou asked the guide: "Is what he said true?" The guide didn't tell them that the stall was run by twins, otherwise there wouldn't be such a trouble.

The guide shook his head and said, "I don't know about that." He only knows that the food here is delicious, so he doesn't care about other things.

The shop owner was anxious: "If you don't believe it, you can ask your neighbors, they all know."

Yu Zhi sent someone to ask, and it was confirmed that the stall was indeed opened by a pair of twin brothers.

Hearing this, Qiyou said with a regretful face: "I thought it was an assassination!" After speaking, he sat back where he was, grabbed a bunch of stinky tofu from the plate and ate it.

After eating a plate of stinky tofu, Qiyou threw five taels of silver to the shop owner, which is regarded as compensation for you, the boss. Today's incident, the shop owner himself has to pay half of the responsibility.

The boss took the money, but he was not happy at all. He was so scared that he lost most of his life just now. How can it be made up for five taels of money.

On the way back, Qiyou said with some regret: "Eldest sister and elder brother always meet assassins when they go out, why haven't I met them once?" Just thought he was very excited to meet the assassin, but it turned out to be an oolong.

Brother Hua's mouth twitched.

Seeing that Yu Zhi and Brother Hua were not talking, Qi You said: "Do you think Yan Wushuang thinks killing me is useless, so he doesn't bother to pay attention to me?" This is too discriminatory.

Yu Zhi shook his head helplessly, he really is a lord who fears the world will be corrupted! Fortunately, the concubine and the crown prince can restrain him, otherwise he will go astray and it will become a great disaster. (to be continued)
