An Sheng looked into Zhou Yunshu's eyes and suddenly lowered his head.
Wu Gui looked at An Sheng's movements and opened her lips slightly to say something, but remained silent in the end.
"Is it Yang Bingtian?" Zhou Yunshu asked directly.
Wu Gui also looked at An Sheng, and she and Zhou Yunshu guessed that Yang Bingtian was the one.
An Sheng lowered his eyes and shook his head.
Just when he thought Zhou Yunshu would continue to press him, Zhou Yunshu suddenly touched his little head and said warmly: "It's getting late, you should go back to sleep."
An Sheng raised his head and glanced at Zhou Yunshu, then hesitated for a moment and stepped forward to grab her hand.
This was the first time, except for Wu Gui and Wu Yue, that he took the initiative to hold someone else's hand.
Zhou Yunshu raised the corner of her mouth and understood what he had not said, "We will take you away."
An Sheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he took a step back and came to Wu Gui's side, holding her hand lovingly.
"It's getting late, let's go back and rest early."
The return trip was much faster than the return trip. When Zhou Yunshu returned to her yard, she opened the door and could still vaguely hear Wei Zhong's snoring.
It was almost the time of the Chou season. Around two o'clock in the morning, Zhou Yunshu changed her clothes and lay on the bed and slept until dawn.
The breakfast for the next day was still brought by Wei Zhong, which consisted of Yangchun noodles with a poached egg, a plate of radish pickles and fresh meat steamed buns.
After eating and drinking, Zhou Yunshu and the people in the yard walked to the Ginkgo Garden.
Today is the birthday of Our Lady. Even though we are on the mountain, the sound of firecrackers has not stopped so early in the morning.
After arriving at Ginkgo Garden, Uncle He assigned everyone to work, leaving only Zhou Yunshu and Wei Zhong to read the gift list in the main square of the Red Lotus Sect.
In addition to the guests who have stayed in the east courtyard in the past few days, there are also many guests who have come up the mountain one after another.
Every guest brought enough birthday gifts when they came, just to leave a little impression on Our Lady of the Red Lotus at her birthday banquet and increase her favorability.
Uncle He took Zhou Yunshu and Wei Zhong there earlier. Our Lady of the Red Lotus had not arrived yet, but there were already three floors of congregants standing around the square of the main hall.
The positions of Zhou Yunshu and Wei Zhong were just inside the main hall door. Wei Zhong, who was responsible for reading the ceremony, stood while Zhou Yunshu, who was responsible for writing, sat behind the table.
When the auspicious time came, the church bell rang. Zhou Yunshu stood up and listened to the congregants in the square chanting the name of Our Lady of Red Lotus.
While lowering her eyes, Our Lady of the Red Lotus came from the outside with her six thousand envoys. Zhou Yunshu sang the birthday greetings of Our Lady of the Red Lotus along with the people around her.
After the singing of praises was over, Zhou Yunshu sat down again and the ceremony began.
"Master Yang Yuhao, the son of Lord Yang, the prefect of Luzhou, wishes you a happy birthday!"
The pen in Zhou Yunshu's hand was about to fall on the paper when she paused. Unexpectedly, the first person to congratulate her on her birthday was beyond her expectation.
Yang Yuhao, who had a hint of impatience on his face, was wearing a purple satin robe with crane patterns, and his long black hair was tied up high with a jade crown.
As soon as he entered the door, Our Lady of Red Lotus stood up with a smile and came to greet him.
"Yu Hao, please sit down quickly."
Yang Yuhao put away the impatience on his face and said in a very educated manner: "I wish Aunt Lian the sun and the moon will last forever, and may you have good fortune and longevity."
The Red Lotus Virgin said with a smile on her face: "Thank you, how are you living in the mountains these days?"
"fine……"
Although Zhou Yunshu did not raise her eyes to watch the conversation between the two, no words fell from her ears.
This Yang Yuhao actually went up the mountain on the same day as them. Zhou Yunshu glanced at the main hall and suddenly saw a very familiar old man.
She turned her pen. If this old man was with Yang Yuhao, then they had met before leaving Anshan. However, Zhou Yunshu did not associate the tightly guarded team with Yang Yuhao at that time.
Zhou Yunshu frowned slightly and wrote Yang Yuhao's name on the rice paper one stroke at a time.
Shouldn't he, Yun Qi and Yun Jia study on Duan Yan's side? Why did he suddenly appear in Luzhou? Or they said they traveled to Luzhou.
Zhou Yunshu wrote down the congratulatory gift from Yang Yuhao, and finally looked up at Yang Yuhao who had already sat down. Does he know where Yun Qi and Yun Jia are going?
Zhou Yunshu deliberately wanted to find an opportunity to ask, but she did not dare to expose her whereabouts easily. Even though Yun Qi had said many times that Yang Yuhao was his best friend, people would change.
Zhou Yunshu recorded the gift list in her hand and was thinking about how to get some information out of Yang Yuhao. In other words, she should go to Yang Yuhao's current residence to see if there might be any clues.
Making a decision in her heart, Zhou Yunshu began to concentrate on recording the gift list in her hand.
I have to say that everyone who came to congratulate Our Lady of the Red Lotus on her birthday was a generous person. Our Lady of the Red Lotus was happy to hear it, and Zhou Yunshu was also happy to record it.
When she thought that tonight was destined to be a fruitful night, the corners of Zhou Yunshu's lips couldn't help but curl up.
After the gift ceremony was over, Zhou Yunshu and Wei Zhong slowly exited the hall under the leadership of Uncle He.
The excitement in the front hall continued. Zhou Yunshu followed Uncle He with the gift book in her arms, and slowly walked towards the warehouse with the red lotus envoys who were delivering the birthday gifts.
The warehouse of the Red Lotus Sect is right next to the Temple of the Holy Mother. Even though the front hall is currently celebrating the birthday of the Holy Mother of the Red Lotus, the Temple of the Holy Mother is still heavily guarded.
Zhou Yunshu followed Uncle He, watching him take out the token twice in succession, and passed almost three levels before arriving at the warehouse of the Notre Dame Temple.
"Uncle He."
Uncle He looked at the Red Lotus envoy guarding the warehouse door and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you, Xiaoma, would be guarding the warehouse today."
The person whom Uncle He calls Xiao Ma is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has a fierce look on his face, but he is extremely polite and even a little shy when facing Uncle He.
"Thousands of envoys were all called away. Our Lady was worried about others, so she called me over."
Uncle He walked up to Xiao Ma, raised his head and patted Xiao Ma on the shoulder, saying: "Do a good job. When Zheng Qianzhi and the others come back to replace you, you can also go to the banquet to relax."
Xiao Ma smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will definitely have a drink with Uncle He then."
"It's necessary!" Uncle He took out the key and said to Xiao Ma: "Let's open Yi Er's warehouse today."
"good!"
Yi Er's warehouse was the middle warehouse. After opening it, Uncle He took Zhou Yunshu and others in. Zhou Yunshu glanced at it calmly.
There are various boxes stacked on the floor of the warehouse, and various treasures are placed on the shelves on both sides of the wall. Although it is not as good as the inner treasury of the Wei Palace, it is not much worse.
Uncle He said to Zhou Yunshu behind him: "You read the book and I will direct it."
"yes."
Zhou Yunshu started reciting from the beginning. Every time he recited a birthday gift for a guest, Uncle He led others to place one.
By the time they were all finished, it was almost noon.
The warehouse was closed, and Uncle He took Zhou Yunshu and others down the mountain. Zhou Yunshu asked at the right time: "Are we going back to the front hall?"
Uncle He said: "It is estimated that it has now reached the stage where the Virgin takes the Twelve Holy Boys and the Ten Holy Girls to pray for blessings from the gods. It is not appropriate for us to go now. Let's go to eat first."
