Chapter 245 Strawberry
Ripe strawberries turn deep red, like bright red and shiny agates. The crystal clear look makes people want to take a bite and taste what they taste like.

Xiao Chengyi looked at the basket of flaming red strawberries and frowned slightly. As a young master from a wealthy family, he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but he had never seen the flaming red fruit in front of him. "Please give me some advice, Mrs. Gu."

If you haven't seen it before, you just haven't seen it. There's no need to pretend to be a big deal, just say that you know it.

"The strawberries have been washed. Mr. Xiao can taste it." Jian Qingyu smiled gently. This thing is unique to her. She had already tasted it in the morning, and the taste was even better than in her memory. Delicious and juicy.

"Strawberry? Isn't this unique to Tai'an country?" He has heard of strawberries, but has never seen them. This is a fruit that can only be grown in Tai'an country. It is said that this fruit is extremely delicate and cannot be knocked or touched. Each one must be handled with care, as it cannot withstand long-distance transportation.

Mrs. Gu has grown the delicate fruits of Tai'an Kingdom, which is a big surprise.

Xiao Chengyi couldn't wait to pick up one and gently bit open the strawberry. You can see the bright red pulp exposed, bit by bit, like a pot of red amaryllis. The light red juice oozing out of the strawberry sticks to the tongue, and the taste is delicious. It's awesome.

"Madam is indeed ingenious. Mr. Gu is truly blessed."

"Master Xiao is well-informed. These strawberries are seeds purchased from the people of Tai'an. I just tried to grow them, but I didn't expect them to grow." Jian Qingyu's tone was full of joy.

But she didn't know that the strawberry was unique to Tai'an, and thought that the man got it from somewhere else. In her mind, the strawberry was imported, not native.

"Mrs. Gu is being modest. It's not like no one has tried to grow strawberries in Tai'an. It's a pity that few people have succeeded." Who doesn't know the value of strawberries? It's a pity that the strawberries grown in Dayan are small, but they are still small. It's so sour that it can knock your teeth out. No one would be willing to take advantage of strawberries like this even if they were sold.

"Hehe, good luck, good luck." Jian Qingyu put a basket of strawberries on the table, then sat down next to Gu Yanbei, and stopped communicating for the time being. She was afraid that the more she spoke, the more she would make a mistake.

Gu Yanbei wasn't too worried. He reached out and squeezed her hand, comforted him, and then told Xiao Chengyi something about Chunwei.

Xiao Chengyi didn't take it to heart. He had a good chat with Gu Yanbei and told Gu Yanbei some of the things he knew.

When the time was almost up, the couple chose to say goodbye.

Originally, they planned to go to Chu's house, but Master Xiao told him that Chu Feng was inconvenient recently. They didn't give details, but Gu Yanbei also knew some information, and they could probably guess why Mr. Chu was inconvenient.

"Since it's inconvenient for Master Chu, we won't bother you."

"The Chu family has been making quite a fuss recently. There's no need for you to get involved, but if you don't go, I'll send the things over for you. Chu Feng will definitely like the things you send."

"Then there is Lord Lao Xiao."

"By the way, I wonder where Mr. Gu lives now. Is it convenient to leave an address so that we can contact him in the future? I originally thought of arranging for you to live in our house. After all, the Xiao family still has some status in the capital."

"We understand Master Xiao's wishes. We have caused a lot of trouble along the way. When we were in Fucheng, we made some money and bought a small house. Master Xiao can come and sit here when he has time in the future."

"Definitely." After handing the things for Master Chu to Mr. Xiao, Gu Yanbei took Jian Qingyu and left.

It was rare that he had a free half-day, so he asked Uncle Zhou to leave the carriage and go back alone. Gu Yanbei took Jian Qingyu for a stroll on the streets of the capital.

It's not a long day with just two people without children chirping around.

"Is there anywhere Qingqing wants to go?" Gu Yanbei drove the carriage and looked ahead, asking Jian Qingyu in the car while driving.

Jian Qingyu hung up the curtains and sat at the door of the carriage, shaking her head. She was not familiar with the capital, and she didn't know what interesting places there were. "Just look at the arrangements. I'm not familiar with the capital."

"Then let's go to Fairy Lake."

Fairy Lake, there must be a story when you hear the name.

Jian Qingyu leaned against the car wall and said with a smile: "Does this lake have a story?"

It can become a place that everyone is willing to go to, and it can also become a scenic spot in the capital.

"Yes. According to legend, Fairy Lake is the place where the seven daughters of the Queen Mother of the West and other fairies bathed and washed their clothes. As you know, ordinary people are fascinated by things like gods, and they all want to be happy and make themselves become Be noble." How can we take it seriously as a legend, but the scenery of Fairy Lake is really charming.

"Ah, it's this legend. I thought it was some kind of love story between a scholar and a rich lady." Isn't it written like this in many books? The down-and-out scholar and the rich lady broke through the worldly concepts and passed many tests. In the end, lovers get married.

"Yes, there is, but it's not Fairy Lake, it's another lake, but it's not a good story, but it actually happened. The gap between the scholar and the daughter is not a tiny bit, how can it be possible to be like in the painting book? Together." Gu Yanbei himself sneered at such a thing. Even if he is the number one scholar, not everyone can choose him. Only if he catches the eyes of certain people will he want to recruit him as his son-in-law. It's not that easy. The reason why the number one scholar was chosen as his son-in-law was just because of his ability. He wanted him to devote himself to the woman's family. Why did the number one scholar have no family background?

"Ha, it's true. You really don't deceive me." Well, love is really indiscriminate.

"Don't read those picture books. Those stories are all fabricated, just for simple people like you."

About half an hour later, they arrived at Fairy Lake.

When we walked into Fairy Lake, we were surrounded by light clouds and mist. At this time, Fairy Lake became lively and bustling, surrounded by young people who came to play. Everyone walked along the river bank and chanted a poem from time to time. , to express your mood at this time.

"There are so many people." Jian Qingyu looked around as if looking for something. When he saw the crowds of people in front of him, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"That's not much. The weather is too cold and there is no scenery. When spring comes, there are so many people that you can't even see the end!" Gu Yanbei took Jian Qingyu's hand and led her forward.

"But that's right. I don't like crowds, and it's just right now." There are so many people that you can't see anything. Although the season is cooler at this time, there's not much to see, but it's quite comfortable to go out and walk around without being disturbed.
