Biquge www.xbiquge.bz, the fastest update my princess is Doubi!
Gu Xiangning looked at Jiang Hu, this seemed like a good idea. Gu Yong is an outsider, but Jiang Hu is not. He looked at Xiaoman and said, "Just do what Jiang Hu said, and I will have someone send Jiang Hu back."
After the three of them left Mingyue Island, Jiang Hu and Xiaoman Gu Xiangning separated. Gu Xiangning took Xiaoman back to have an abortion, while Jiang Hu went to the supervisory committee alone, and under Gu Yong's care, he began to take charge of the supervisory committee.
After Xiaoman returned to the capital, the queen mother and others were very happy to learn that Xiaoman was pregnant, and even made a special trip out of the palace to see Xiaoman: "You have been married for more than a year and finally have a child. This is a good thing. Before mourning, But I was always worried."
What the queen mother said made Xiaoman a little speechless. There is nothing to worry about. He smiled and looked at the queen mother: "I think the queen mother is not worried about me, but about my sister. I don't know where my sister and the others are at sea now?"
I don't know if the news that was sent to Qian Jiujiu last time was sent to Qian Jiujiu? At this time, Qian Jiujiu Mu Yexiao and his party, who were being talked about by Xiaoman and the queen mother, finally saw the land after floating on the island for two or three months.
No, to be precise, I saw a group of islands. The sailors on the deck went to report to Qian Jiujiu and the others: "My lord, my concubine, there is an island ahead."
island? Qian Jiujiu is particularly interested in sea islands. Hearing this, he took the two children and Mu Yexiao to the deck. Naturally, Wan Houyu also followed, watching Qian Jiujiu and the others explain.
"In front of you is the island country. This country is composed of several large islands. Although it is a country, there is no emperor. It is decided by a few big families. But the island country is a little poor, and there is nothing to trade, so usually We hardly ever stop. Just do some water changes on it and move on.”
It turned out to be relatively poor, but Qian Jiujiu and the others still wanted to go down for a walk. This is a different place, and it is not an exaggeration to take a look.
"Let's stop the boat later, let's go for a stroll. You should follow the old rules, if you need to change the water, go and change the water. After we come back, we will continue our journey."
Wan Houyu nodded: "Yes, Madam Wangfei."
After the boat docked, Qian Jiujiu took Nannan with one hand and Beibei with the other, and got off the boat to the island. Mu Yexiao followed behind the three of them, acting as bodyguards.
After going to the island, Qian Jiujiu discovered that the environment here is very beautiful, but there are only a few people on the entire pier, so she asked curiously, "Why are there so few people?"
Wan Houyu asked his subordinates to complete the water change, and stayed beside Qian Jiujiu and his party. Seeing Qian Jiujiu's curiosity, he quickly opened his mouth to explain.
"This pier is specially used to receive guests from afar like us. They may not come here once a year, or only once in a few years. Therefore, there are usually only two or three people stationed on this pier. After people come , one went to report, and one stayed to receive."
It turned out to be like this. Sure enough, after Wan Houyu finished speaking, a fat man ran towards this side with all his strength: "Guests who came from afar, sorry, we are late."
Wan Houyu did know this fat man: "It turned out to be a fat man, why are you still working here now?"
Waiting here for people who come from afar, usually no one comes, and there is no oil and water, so people on this island are unwilling to come. Unexpectedly, this fat man became a resident here.
The fat man was a little embarrassed: "Isn't there no one to take over the job? You will be able to get by soon, so you will stay permanently. Are you going to sea again, going to another place?"
Qian Jiujiu heard the conversation between the two, and they spoke the local dialect, which Wan Houyu obviously understood. Qian Jiujiu frowned, because she found that she couldn't understand the people here, which made her a little embarrassed.
Wan Houyu nodded: "It's still the same, passing by here. This family of four is my main family, and I want to go to the island this time."
The fat man nodded knowingly, his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Qian Jiujiu. Then happily agreed: "Okay, you are welcome."
After finishing speaking, Fatty led the way, and Wan Houyu was explaining to Qian Jiujiu and the others what they had just said to Fatty, and now they can go to the island for a stroll.
Qian Jiujiu said helplessly: "When we go to the next place, can you give us the language of the next place first? Let us learn it too. It's not very convenient if we don't understand."
Wan Houyu was taken aback for a moment, but he never thought that Qian Jiujiu wanted to learn the words of Dao Duo Guo: "If the prince and princess want to learn, I can teach you some."
So the on-site teaching began. I thought that the two of them would not learn so smoothly, but Wan Houyu found out that he was wrong.
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao were able to memorize some simple phrases after he just said them once. Not to mention Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao, they can remember both South and North. This made Wan Houyu sigh, this family is not human. It's so powerful that it can be remembered once, it's amazing.
After leaving the pier, a cart came, and it seemed that it was still some distance from the living area on their island.
Qian Jiujiu looked at the cart and fell into deep thought. Wan Houyu coughed twice: "Princess, the horses here are very expensive. Generally speaking, they are used to pick up very distinguished guests. They It must be because I don’t know your identities, that’s why I used the cart.”
Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes: "I don't dislike it either. If it's really far away, you can still go up. It's just that I haven't sat down for a long time, and I still miss it."
The corners of Mu Yexiao's mouth raised slightly, this mischievous Jiu'er is also very cute. When did his princess ride a scooter? Is there nothing in the past and present life?
"Do you want to sit? If you don't want to sit, don't force it."
Qian Jiujiu shook his head: "Sit, don't force it, it's like experiencing a different means of transportation."
As they spoke, they went up to the scooter first, and sat on the side of the scooter. Nannan and Beibei were very excited. It was the first time they made a scooter, and they ran up directly, and sat obediently beside their mother.
Mu Yexiao sat up behind and directly protected the mother and child, which was just right. Wan Houyu smiled awkwardly: "I will follow on the ground."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at the scooter and said, "You can sit on it too."
The cart is pulled by oxen, and a person in front is driving the cart with a whip. In fact, it should be called an ox cart. The bullock cart swayed towards the living area on the island.
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao on the ox cart continued to learn the words from Wan Houyu, but the swaying of the ox cart made Qian Jiujiu very uncomfortable.
Qian Jiujiu suddenly sighed, the ancients are right, it is easy to go from simplicity to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. I'm used to riding in soft carriages, so it's really uncomfortable to make this cart.
An hour later, the dangling cart finally arrived at its destination. Arriving at the living area on the island, Qian Jiujiu looked around the island, only to find that the people on the island didn't seem to be very wealthy.
The clothes everyone was wearing were a bit tattered, and even the houses next to them were simple sheds, which felt like they would fall down when the wind blew: "Wan Houyu, is this a slum?"
Wan Houyu nodded: "The princess is right, this is indeed a poor area, because this pier has few people receiving it, and not many people are willing to take responsibility, so it was built in a poor area. There is nothing good about this poor area. Let’s just go straight ahead.”
Qian Jiujiu nodded, the bullock cart continued to move forward, and after crossing the slums, it arrived at a slightly affluent place. At least the house here is no longer a simple shed, but a yard piled up with dirt.
The cart quickly stopped at the gate of a yard, and after Wan Houyu communicated with the people on the island, he explained to Qian Jiujiu's family.
"My lord, this yard is the home of the richest owner on the island. The owner wants to entertain us, please let us in."
Qian Jiujiu is speechless, does the island owner live in such a place? But people have warmly invited them, so they have to save face, after all, they are on their territory.
So a group of people got out of the car and entered the yard. After entering, a woman came up to greet her, and she bowed to salute: "I have seen distinguished guests, please come with us."
Hearing this, Wan Houyu explained: "This is to let us go with him."
Before he got there, he heard the excitement inside, Qian Jiujiu frowned, was he entertaining other guests? The person leading the way in front also spoke.
"You are very lucky. The island owner next door just happened to be a guest, so today's island owner's mansion has a lot of fish and meat, and you can also have a meal."
Wan Houyu's face darkened, because he regarded them as guests who came to eat and drink. Seeing Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao still waiting for an explanation, Wan Houyu felt that his life was miserable, so he didn't dare to tell the truth, he could only explain.
"It's the island owner next door who is also a guest inside, so it's a bit more lively."
So it's time to catch up with the excitement, but it's a pity that if you don't understand the words, you need others to explain, which makes Qian Jiujiu a little upset. Soon at the destination, the maid in front pushed open the door of the room and went in to salute.
"Master, the guests have been brought."
As he spoke, he stood aside, revealing Qian Jiujiu and his party following behind. When the island owner next door saw Qian Jiujiu, his eyes lit up, and then he turned to face the island owner, chattering something.
The island owner frowned, shook his head and refused. This is a guest from afar, so naturally he cannot be offended. He does know who is behind this team of people.
The owner of the island next door was a little angry, and then said to Wan Houyu: "Several distinguished guests, this place is in a remote place, and there is no hospitality, why don't you come with me to my island?"
