Chapter 328 Meeting at the teahouse
It was said that we would meet at the same place the day after tomorrow, that is, at the next county town, but we still met at a roadside tea house when we were approaching Qingyang County.

No matter which one of the two teams was worried about rainy days on the road, they rushed on their way in a hurry.

If it weren't for the fact that Yunchengming's convoy had more cargo and mules and carts, it might not have been overtaken by Gu Wenxuan and others' convoy. Fortunately, everyone went smoothly.

But there was an agreement, so how could Gu Wenxuan let Yun Chengming go so easily and blackmailed Yun Chengming once, making Yun Chengming so angry that he wanted to kill him.

At the same time, Yun Chengming was also very happy. The brother who won Xiao Sanyuan was still the same brother, and he was right.

Zhou Banxia thought it was strange to see him carrying a package into the carriage. The team was still resting, so he could just put it in through the window.

He saw Gu Wenxuan immediately turned around and went to the car door to take a basket, which was understandable because the basket couldn't fit into the car window.

"If you didn't meet someone, why did you come back so soon? If you didn't go back to the village directly, why didn't you chat with him before he left? What's in there?"

"Good stuff." Gu Wenxuan placed the basket on the open space in front of the carriage, sat down on the side of the carriage and unwrapped the small package, "He's about to leave, otherwise he won't be able to squeeze in."

This meant that both teams were taking a break at the tea house to feed the horses, donkeys and mules. The horses, donkeys and mules could barely fit in, and Zhou Banxia knew this even if he didn't get out of the carriage.

"Did Brother Yun give these?" Seeing Gu Wenxuan busy unpacking the small package, Zhou Banxia pointed to the basket on the open space in front of the couch, "Why does it still smell like donkey meat?"

"Did you smell it?" Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but smile and whispered in her ear, "I paid him a sum, and the basket was for him to compensate me for my mental losses."

Zhou Banxia laughed, "Just be bad."

"If you don't tease him, you won't show how deep the brotherhood is. There are also roasted and dried shrimps in it. I asked him to leave some dry goods for us. After unloading the goods later, he will send someone to deliver them to our house."

Dry goods?

Dried seafood?
"Aren't there many more at home?"

"It's not just dried seafood. The weather is hot and I didn't buy much. It's dried fruit pulp from the grassland. He exchanged a lot with others this time, so I asked him to save some of it."

So that's it, she just said, don't buy any dried seafood in hot weather, it's strong and difficult to store, but you don't have to worry about dried fruit pulp being brought to the county town and no one wants it.

Generally speaking, we are not very interested in seafood here, especially not cheap seafood, whether it is for festivals or for the needs of wealthy families and restaurants.

For example, at the end of last year, it was also the end of the New Year. Small fish and shrimps are popular with ordinary people because they are cheap and good. They still like to eat river fish and river shrimps on weekdays.

"Did you give me the money?"

"Forgot that we're mixing it up?" Gu Wenxuan gave her a funny look and pushed the untied wooden box in front of her, "Or is he afraid that we'll run away?"

"No, one code equals one code -"

Halfway through the words, Zhou Banxia lowered his head and opened the wooden box and was shocked to see that the wooden box was filled with jade, including agate and jade.

Although there was no gold or silver inlay, the colorful ones seemed to be of good quality. She was so surprised that she suddenly raised her head and asked, "Where did it come from?"

After Gu Wenxuan was almost hit on the nose, he touched the bridge of his nose guiltily, "I used a piece of ebony and asked Yun Chengming to help replace it."

"ebony?"

"Yes, isn't there a saying that even a box of jewels is worth less than a box of ebony? Thousands of taels of gold are sent to the underworld in exchange for ebony to be offered to the gods?
In the first month of the first month, I heard from Yun Chengming that a caravan was looking for an ebony sign to ward off evil spirits. It didn't sound like a big problem. We still had several uncarved ebony pieces at home.

I said that I had a piece that I had hidden away for a long time and wanted to change hands, but I didn’t know if someone would come back to me if I changed hands. Then Yun Chengming found a scapegoat. Bah, it’s according to the rules of the world, so I changed it this time. "

Zhou Banxia frowned, "Are you sure there will be no problem?"

"Am I stupid?" "Are you stupid? Can Yun Chengming be trusted?"

"It's hard to say whether it's credible or not, but he will never let the news out."

"reason."

Gu Wenxuan slapped her head in a funny way, "He is not an only son. Should he pay the public benefits when he goes out? Secondly, what about the evidence? So what if I don't recognize it?"

Even if I can't hide it, I can say that when I was learning carpentry, I went into the mountains to cut trees and luckily found a piece of wood. Anyway, I didn't think I was caught and it was easy to say anything. "

It seems to make sense.

"Don't worry, if there is a risk, I will do it? Will we be short of money? It's not that your man is noble, but even those dowries are looked down upon by your man.

Just wait, your man will definitely save ten times more private money for you. Your man is not stupid, he just wants to give you a surprise. "

It was a surprise that could scare people to death. Zhou Banxia couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle, "It doesn't need to be more than ten times. Now there is no shortage of food and drink in the Yizi Workshop alone."

Silly!
So easy to satisfy!

"I know." Gu Wenxuan touched her head, "I think there are so many of them that they won't be of any use, so I might as well give you some jade to play with.

Besides, jade is easier to deal with than ebony, and gold and silver are too single--"

"Wrong, jade is not easy to get rid of." Zhou Banxia took off his mischievous hand. This man would undo her bun again later. It would be troublesome to comb her hair. "You don't want me to wear jewelry given by anyone. It's best if even a hair can be engraved with the words "This is my Gu Wenxuan's wife."

Gu Wenxuan laughed and became smart again. He was right. It's not like Gu Wenxuan couldn't afford a wife, so why would he not wear jewelry given by others?

"Keep your voice down."

"Don't be afraid. People will suspect us only if we do it quietly. We, the couple, are here to show off in broad daylight——"

I can’t take this mouth anymore!

Zhou Banxia hurriedly put another hand to seal his mouth.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk anymore. Let's try the dried shrimps first. I heard they are baked with honey. It's coming soon anyway, so I won't worry about him not being able to eat them, so I'll take them."

"It looks very clean, and it was wrapped firmly in oil paper. Didn't you leave any for him?" Zhou Banxia opened his mouth and took the feed, "Not bad, you can try it."

"It doesn't matter. He knows that I'm joking with him. Are you leaving so soon? Just wait a moment. I'll give some to Dajiang and Xiaohe to try. I'll be back soon."

"Wait a minute." Zhou Banxia hurriedly caught the person, "Why don't we have to stop when we get to the city gate? Just stay in peace. Why don't you say you can't tolerate them?"

Gu Wenxuan quickly swallowed the dried shrimp he was chewing in his mouth, "Didn't you know how to free up the carriage and let me accompany you? It's a reward and you can keep up the good work."

"Don't you want to go horse riding?"

"It's a joke. I can't think about riding a horse on a hot day without my wife. By the way, wife, I almost forgot that there is one more thing I haven't had time to mention to you."

Zhou Banxia secretly thought something was wrong, what kind of scary surprise was this?

"explain."

"I asked Yun Chengming to keep the things our family brought back from Fucheng. There is no need to stop at the city gate, just go straight to Qinghe Village."
