Listening to the messy silk and bamboo, looking at the dazzling lights, Bai Feng was held up to his neck like a hero by a giant man and sat there. Then a group of people walked through the streets and alleys, and the people of the town came to the Lu family's house to drink wedding wine.
.
The Lu family held a banquet, and there was an endless stream of guests. He only remembered that everyone was smiling at him, and then they served wine and drank heavily. From the night of carnival to dawn, more than a dozen wine glasses were broken, and no one was conscious.
personnel.
It was already three days later when Murong Yan woke her up...
"Three days? I slept for three whole days?" Bai Feng felt that his limbs and head were not in the same body. He sat on the couch and blew his nose in confusion.
There is still a smell of alcohol in my mouth.
"Raise your hands!" Murong Yan had just finished wiping Bai Feng's back, and now she pointed at his armpits with a hint of disgust, threw the water-soaked silk cloth into his face, and continued: "The rest is up to you.
Wipe yourself clean. I'll go check on the child first. Remember, don't leave any odor on your body. Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu will come to see us later~"
Bai Feng wiped his body dully, as if he was completely unaware that his wife and children were around him, and he was just talking to a voice. He asked back: "Why did Lu Tianxiu come to see us?"
"Of course I'm here to pay you!"
"ah?"
"You don't want to work for nothing this time, do you? You guys agreed in advance on how much you would be paid. He deliberately delayed it for a few days and let you sleep for a few more days. Maybe it was because you were too tired."
Bai Feng stood up suddenly and said in surprise: "How...how many days? We have stayed for so many days, how should we calculate the expenses of this inn! Oh, I shouldn't have spent this wasted money. If I had known better, I wouldn't have drank.
,No, I will never drink again!”
"Why are you in a hurry? The shopkeeper didn't ask us for money." Murong Yan's voice came from not far away. Bai Feng followed the sound and saw that she was holding a baby in her arms and feeding breast milk. The sun shone on the side of her face, covering her face.
On the open chest, several scars can be faintly seen.
A year ago, Murong Yan was trapped in the Taiping Tower and tortured. Now her body has regained its plumpness and she has abundant milk to satisfy her child.
The fallen red leaves rustled outside the window, and Murong Yan raised her eyes and looked out. At this moment, in Bai Feng's eyes, she was as solemn as a stone sculpture, and those deep scars were the marks left by the passage of time on the stone sculpture.
"What are you doing? Please clean up quickly and change clothes." Murong Yan looked at him with a smile: "Don't stare at me..."
Bai Feng walked over and leaned over to meet the baby's eyes: "This little guy must be one year old, right?"
"What little guy? This is Xi'er, our daughter!"
"Ah, I'm sorry."
Maybe it was because the peculiar smell on Bai Feng's body was too strong, so Xi'er sniffed and sobbed again.
"Go and take a shower!" Murong Yan pursed her lips to prevent Bai Feng from getting closer. Bai Feng stood there and smiled stupidly.
After a brief moment of tranquility, Yu Ke came to inform him that the hot water was ready and that Lu Tianxiu and his wife were visiting. Bai Feng then went to take a bath.
Yu Ke came to the room to help Murong Yan tidy up her appearance. During the process, she did not forget to joke: "Sister, are you too indifferent to your adopted brother? Did I hear it just now?"
"That's right, someone who's been sleeping for three days doesn't deserve me to be nice to him!"
"Hee hee hee."
Before Yu Ke's laughter stopped, Xi'er also started laughing, but this was probably because the air around him was much fresher.
The Lu family couple had been waiting in the post house for a long time. They were newlyweds and they were not very familiar with each other. They were polite and respectful to each other. Compared with the couple who were about to arrive, they formed a strong contrast.
.
Murong Yan and Yu Ke were the first to arrive. Xi'er was held by Yu Ke, and his wife and adopted sister sat down together.
Murong Yan nodded politely and apologized: "I'm sorry, my husband will be here shortly."
"Madam, there is no need to be polite." The Lu family's wife also said, "Our family wants to visit you. The host can meet the guests whenever he wants."
Lu Tianxiu also echoed: "This is the benefactor of our Lu family. If we can meet our benefactor, it will only take a short while without delay."
Murong Yan said: "My husband, I have been very tired these days. I am grateful to you two for your understanding."
After saying that, Murong Yan bowed to greet her, and the Lu family and his wife also returned the greetings one after another.
Not long after, Bai Feng put on a clean gray-white Taoist robe and arrived. She hurriedly took a seat, but was met with a blank stare from Murong Yan.
"I'd like to apologize for being so late!" Murong Yan said quietly. Bai Feng obediently stood aside and bowed formally: "I'm sorry to show you my respect for you two. I can't bear to drink."
, my head is still dizzy now..."
Mrs. Lu suddenly said at this time: "Mr. Bai! You don't have to be so humble in front of us."
"Mrs. Lu knows Brother Feng!" Murong Yan said in shock.
Mrs. Lu said: "I have already told my husband-in-law about General Bai Feng's deeds."
Lu Tianxiu then took out a bag of gold, held it in his hand and said in respect: "General Bai Feng, please accept my bow. Please don't refuse these 'wages'."
"this……"
Mrs. Lu also took out a palm-sized brocade box, presented it to Bai Feng and said, "Mr. Bai, this is the hair you gave me in the past. Now I should return it to you, along with the hundred taels of gold."
"No, Mrs. Lu, we just met by chance in the past. Also, so much gold is far different from the salary we agreed on in advance." Bai Feng was so anxious that he even forgot to take a seat, so that he kept talking during the process.
Speak condescendingly.
Murong Yan admired the generosity of the Lu family very much. She first asked Bai Feng to sit down and talk, and then asked: "I wonder how Mrs. Lu and my husband met?"
"I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Zhang Sidan. I am the only daughter of Governor Zhang of Cangzhou." Zhang Sidan said truthfully: "It was about two years ago, right? Mr. Bai killed a bully who was running rampant in the countryside in Cangzhou, and then the bully's father sued
When I went to the official residence, I suddenly wanted to meet this rumored young general with my own eyes... I didn't expect that two years later, you would have a child?"
Lu Tianxiu immediately asked: "Master Bai cannot reveal his identity. I already know the reason for this, but I am still curious to ask, where do you want to go next, Master Bai and Madam Bai?"
"To be honest with you two, we actually want to go to Kunlun Mountain to find the 'Immortal'." Bai Feng said: "Have you ever heard of the Kunlun Mountain Spirit Snake Temple?"
Lu Tianxiu and Zhang Sidan both shook their heads.
"Hahaha, Mr. Bai should have heard about the origin of Zhuxian Town. We don't believe in gods here, but we believe in you." Lu Tianxiu and his wife looked at each other and smiled: "If Mr. Bai needs help, the Lu family is willing to help."
I will try my best to help, but I must remind you that the snow season will begin in two months. Once there is a heavy snowstorm in Kunlun Mountain, my people may not be able to help."
Bai Feng solemnly replied: "That's enough. I will find it in two months."
Murong Yan and Yu Ke both looked at Bai Feng expectantly, and Xi'er, who was held in their arms, also smiled broadly.
