A Guqing patted the scimitar in his hand carelessly, and replied with a smile: "Madam, such a little wine can't get me drunk. Besides, the girls in our wilderness are not so easy to bully."
"Well, girl, don't blame me for talking too much." The landlady said with an apologetic smile.
"Girl, you have a good temper and good looks. Remember to leave your room as little as possible after boarding the ship, especially when crossing the pier and docking." Before A Guqing could reply, Xiao Yu said curiously from the side: "Auntie, this is Why?" The landlady replied: "You are a young man, so you don't have to worry about this. I heard that there is a rich young man in the Muyun Mountain area who picks up and bullies beautiful girls on merchant ships passing by Muyun Mountain. No, There are two girls in our town who have suffered a disaster. I think this girl is handsome and a sensible child, so I have to say a few words." Upon hearing this, A Guqing clasped his fists and thanked: "That's it, thank you so much, aunt. Reminder." After A Guqing finished speaking, he took out a lot of broken silver from his arms and held it in his hand. He reached out and took the hand of the landlady, respectfully placed it in the hand of the landlady, and then thanked: "Thank you, ma'am. Let me know." The proprietress quickly declined and replied: "Little girl, that's not what I meant. Please take it back. Please pay attention to your safety along the way."
"Hey, aunt, if you hadn't reminded me this time, I might have been bullied by others." A Guqing replied sincerely.
"Hey, take it back quickly. It doesn't hurt to drink more wine next time you come to my restaurant for dinner. I will never take this money." The landlady put the money back into A Guqing's hand.
Seeing that the aunt refused to take it, A Guqing couldn't stop the stalemate, so she had to take it back and thanked her with clasped fists. The landlady was a real person and told her that after having dinner and drinking with Xiao Yu, they were friends and had to be looked after.
Xiao Yu understood that her intention was to let him take care of this girl so as not to be bullied. A Guqing and Xiao Yu both came down. On their left and right were people taking a boat all the way north, and there were many friends they talked to on the way.
After the landlady left, the two had a few more drinks and chatted about their families, becoming familiar with each other. Xiao Yu learned that A Guqing was from the Mang tribe, a nomadic tribe in the north, and his father was the younger brother of the Mang tribe's Khan. She thought that she was the "royal relative" of the Mang tribe. No wonder this girl was so rich, but This temperament is like a cheerful and sociable girl. If something goes wrong when going north, I have to help. After all, they treat me first.
About half an hour later, the broker soliciting customers on the shore shouted loudly, "Sail!" Welcome!
'. After hearing this, Xiao Yu and A Guqing bid farewell to the store together, greeted the broker, and followed him.
At the pier, the broker led a group of people who wanted to take the boat, lining up one by one to board the boat and take the boat north. Before Xiao Yu could get the money out, A Guqing gave the broker a large silver coin early and asked him to send someone to help pay the shipping fee. He also found a private room on the third floor of Dage for them to rest.
A Guqing paid out so much money, so he was naturally regarded as a distinguished customer by the broker, so he didn't have to queue up. A Guqing's wealth allowed Xiao Yu to enjoy the blessings with this young lady and save her time in queuing.
Soon, the two of them were led by the waiter arranged by the broker and boarded the ship directly from the deck used by VIPs on the other side of the merchant ship.
This large boat is the largest passenger ship among the merchant ships operating on the entire Beihe River. The passenger ship has three floors. The top floor is the third floor. The entire floor is filled with the most expensive private rooms. A total of There are eight rooms, named after 'Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum'. All guests on this floor are equipped with two maids at their disposal.
A Guqing only asked the ship steward to prepare a private room. It was not because of lack of money, but because Xiao Yu would disembark at the Zhangjiadu Pier at the border of Daguishan in the evening, so the two of them used a private room.
The private room is equipped with two lounges and a tea tasting room. The lounge is available for guests to take a nap, and the tea tasting room is available for guests to drink tea and enjoy the scenery along the way.
Due to the differences between men and women, Xiao Yu originally told A Guqing that he could just go to the lobby on the first floor and socialize with everyone, and there was no need to go to the private room.
Unexpectedly, A Guqing is a girl from the Mang tribe and does not have as many etiquettes as in the Central Plains. She hopes Xiao Yu will not be so polite. If Xiao Yu is not willing, she will open another private room for Xiao Yu.
Xiaoyu couldn't resist and had to agree to rest in the private room with her.
"Those of us who travel in the world don't have so much etiquette, so just follow me without any worries, I'll protect you!" A Guqing patted the scimitar on his waist and pretended to be a female heroine in front of Xiaoyu.
Xiao Yu was holding a bamboo pole, like a mountain porter. He didn't give Ah Guqing any clues, he just said that he was a passing porter who finished his work and went home by boat.
As soon as he heard that the girl wanted to cover him, he agreed. Since she was not short of money, he was lazy and polite.
Ah Guqing thought in her heart that Xiao Yu was an ordinary farmer, and she would take him to see the world during this trip.
Xiao Yu was dressed in coarse cloth, carrying a bamboo pole and followed A Guqing up to the top floor. Under the leadership of two maids, she entered the private room named "Qiu".
After the two maids served them tea, one stood at the door to guard the door for them, and the other served them some melon and fruit tea inside the house.
A Guqing hung the saber on a clothes hook on one side, while Xiao Yu leaned the pole on the side. The two followed the maid to the tea tasting room, and each found a Taishi chair to lean on, drinking tea while admiring the scenery along the way. .
The two drank some tea comfortably and took a nap with their elbows propped up on the Taishi chair. After the two of them rested for a while, they would each serve tea, or stand in front of the window and look at the distant mountains and vistas; or sit on chairs and eat peanuts, pine nuts, and rice cakes while reclining, to kill the time on the boat.
Soon, two and a half hours passed, and the waterborne merchant ship arrived at the boundary of Muyun Mountain and docked at the Muyun Mountain Wanglou Wharf. The three quarters of an hour it docked at this wharf was also the time for the guests on board to have dinner.
This wharf is called Wanglou Wharf. It originated from the fact that this wharf was built with seven floors of money. Due west of it is the highest seven-story pavilion, so it is called Wanglou Wharf.
The pier is located on the edge of Tianyuan Town on the boundary of Muyun Mountain. Tianyuan Town is located in a traffic fortress. The town is bustling with traffic and bustling. It is called a town. Its size is close to that of a small city. The streets in the town are bustling and everything you need is available.
The next pier to Wanglou Pier is Zhangjiadu Pier on the border of Daguishan. Ah Guqing knew that Xiaoyu would disembark at the next pier, so he asked the waiter in advance to prepare a table of good wine and food for Xiaoyu to practice. The two of them were in the tea tasting room. Enjoy your dinner comfortably while admiring the magnificent sunset view of Muyun Mountain.
Just as A Guqing was telling Xiao Yu how she had avoided the danger of guards sneaking out from the tribe during her trip, there was a noise from the bow of the ship. A Guqing raised her eyes and looked out through the window, and was immediately angry. With this in his mind, he slapped the table, stood up, and cursed at the people below: "You bastard, stop it!" Xiao Yu thought to herself: It's strange that you, a lady from our family, don't have a bodyguard to accompany you. It turns out you escaped secretly... Xiao Yu originally wanted to stop her from meddling in her own business, but before she could speak, A Guqing rushed to the window and cursed underneath; he could only frown and pinch his brows, knowing that trouble was coming.
