Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 789 Yangzhou
Then, Zhu Xiuyuan said some witticisms and jokes in the letter, which successfully made Dong Shuyu laugh.

She, who had always had a pretty face and a cold face, couldn't help but "puchi"...

Interaction between people is so strange.

The day before yesterday, Dong Shuyu still hated Zhu Xiuyuan in his heart, but after Zhu Xiuyuan's "letter apology", Dong Shuyu no longer hated him.

Yesterday, after being baptized by Zhu Xiuyuan's comics, Dong Shuyu seemed to have recovered and was thinking about business matters.

Today, after eating the pastries carefully prepared by Zhu Xiuyuan and reading this letter, even the slightest feeling of strangeness towards Zhu Xiuyuan completely disappeared in Dong Shuyu's heart!

She felt that the relationship between her and Zhu Xiuyuan had returned to its previous state.

And, after this "break-repair" process, the relationship between them seems to have become closer!
If Zhu Xiuyuan came to see her at this time, she would definitely not refuse!

With random thoughts in his mind, Dong Shuyu held the exquisite paper and continued to read.

At the end of the letter, Zhu Xiuyuan said that he would set off tomorrow to go to the boundary of Yangzhou to inspect the construction of the salt fields, and he would not be able to return until about three to five days later.

Zhu Xiuyuan also said that he had prepared a big surprise and would give it to her after returning from Yangzhou...

After reading all the contents of the letter, Dong Shuyu held the hand holding the paper and slowly lowered it.

Finally he put it on his knees.

But her thoughts were wandering to nowhere.

By the way, Zhu Xiuyuan's trip to Yangzhou has actually been delayed for two full days.

In the past two days, he had tried every means to make Dong Shuyu happy, and he had no time to care.

The salt fields along the coast of Yangzhou, under the supervision of the inner treasure eunuch Jiawu, had already built a "test field", and it was time for Zhu Xiuyuan to leave for Yangzhou to give personal instructions on how to dry the salt.

Because it was more important to make his woman happy, Zhu Xiuyuan did not go.

Just tell Jiawu the method of drying the salt first, and ask him to send someone to try to dry it first.

After Zhu Xiuyuan has free time, we can go see the results of their salt-exposed work.

Now, there should be no problems on Dong Shuyu's side, so the trip to Yangzhou is scheduled.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Zhu Xiuyuan set off after breakfast.

Go to Hai'an County, Yangzhou, and personally "check and accept" the results of their salt drying during the Sino-Japanese War.

Oh, by the way, Dong Shuzhen also followed.

In fact, the main purpose of her trip this time was to avoid the "kidney-tonifying seed recipe".

During the few days when Dong Shuyu "claimed that he would not be sick", Dong Cheng ordered others to boil the medicine, and every dinner time, he had to watch Dong Shuzhen drink it with his own eyes.

Dong Shuzhen was really scared. Every day during dinner time, she spent every second like a year!
Now that there is such a good opportunity to go to Yangzhou to escape for a few days, she naturally needs to seize it and drink as few medicines as possible...

Zhu Xiuyuan and the others set off from the wharf in the north of the capital, took a big boat, went down the Yangtze River, and soon arrived in Jiangdu City, Yangzhou.

After resting in the city for a while, they changed land routes, took a carriage, and headed east out of the city.

It was a leisurely journey. Their convoy first passed through Hailing County and continued on its way without stopping.

It was not until dark that they finally arrived at the county seat of Hai'an County.

Ten miles outside the city, the magistrate of Hai'an County, together with all the county officials and some people under the eunuch Jiawu, had been waiting for a long time.

After simply dealing with the magistrate of Hai'an County, everyone entered the city and checked into the best inn in the city.

Because it was getting late today, they were inevitably tired after traveling all day, so they rested for one night and rushed to the beach tomorrow to inspect the results of their salt drying.

It was dawn the next day.Zhu Xiuyuan took his wife and a group of maids and attendants, and under the leadership of the eunuch and eunuch, they left the city and headed east.

We came directly to the coast, near the selected "test field".

Zhu Xiuyuan carefully inspected their results and found that there were still many problems in the entire salt drying process. Although they produced some coarse salt, the efficiency was not high...

So Zhu Xiuyuan stayed in the salt field for a whole day, instructing the salt farmers to "optimize the process."

After the sun set in the west, Zhu Xiuyuan returned to the city with his troops.

In the rickety carriage, Zhu Xiuyuan sat with Dong Shuzhen.

They were chatting when suddenly, the carriage stopped suddenly and both of their bodies shook.

"What happened?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked with a frown.

"My dear friend, something happened in front of the motorcade. It seems that someone suddenly rushed out and blocked the way..." Yan Dashan's voice came.

"Someone blocking the way?"

Zhu Xiuyuan was surprised, opened the curtain of the carriage, and jumped out of the carriage.

Dong Shuzhen was also curious, and followed closely behind, standing behind Zhu Xiuyuan, turning her head to look around, looking like she was watching all directions and listening in all directions to protect her husband.

"Who is blocking the way? Why are you blocking the way?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked.

He thought to himself, could it be that someone blocked the way and filed a complaint?
Their motorcade is actually very ostentatious, and there are also royal generals in silver helmets. Anyone with a discerning eye will know that the owner of this motorcade is an extraordinary person, a high official.

That's why Zhu Xiuyuan thought that someone might have blocked the road and complained.

At this time, there were quarreling and tugging sounds from the front of the convoy. Apart from the voices of the generals, there was also a woman's voice mixed in during the period.

"Bring people here!"

Zhu Xiuyuan shook his clothes and prepared to get addicted to redressing people's grievances.

Soon, the generals dragged a woman over and threw her on the ground, about a foot away from Zhu Xiu.

No, you shouldn't use the word for a woman, you should use the word for a beggar.

This woman was unkempt, her clothes were in rags, and she was dirty. She looked like a beggar.

But her movements while lying on the ground were actually... faintly elegant!
Or enchanting.

Elegant or enchanting, and unkempt, forming a strong contrast, immediately aroused Zhu Xiuyuan's curiosity.

He thought to himself that this girl must be the daughter of a noble family. Then her family suddenly fell into decline and she became a beggar.

Now, she took the risk to block the road and file a complaint, presumably to avenge her family. Her family must have been harmed...

"Who are you and why are you blocking the way? Tell me!"

When Zhu Xiuyuan was thinking wildly, Dong Shuzhen behind him had already jumped in front of him, vaguely protecting him behind him.

At the same time, Xia Wu also followed and stood in front of Zhu Xiuyuan together.

Then Xia Wu shouted and asked the female beggar.

The female beggar was crying and crying, she couldn't help struggling to get up, she looked up at Dong Shuzhen, and Zhu Xiuyuan who was behind Dong Shuzhen.

At this time, everyone also saw her appearance clearly.

Sure enough, his face was unkempt, his hair was messed up, and his face was black...

But where she stood, her figure was slightly plump, and she didn't look like a starving beggar at all.
