Chapter 70
"Take care, daddy, my daughter is gone."
After saying goodbye to everyone, the three of them brought some dry food and continued northward, while Ang Lee continued to go west. He planned to inspect the 35 states of the Southern Tang Dynasty, select the 35th and the helm leader, and then return to Jiangning.
The three of them walked for a long time and found a cave to rest in the evening. Guo Fu was guarding the entrance of the cave. There were only him and Li Fu in the cave, and there were no others. Li Fu was a little shy.
"Miss Li..."
"Just Mr. Guo just calls me Fu'er."
"Then, Fu'er, how old are you this year."
Li Fu was a little shy, but she still said softly: "I'm twenty years old this year, isn't it a little old..."
At this time, there were many girls who got married in the 14th and 15th century. Li Fu was not married yet at the age of 20, so she was indeed older in comparison.
"It's not big or big, just right, you're one year older than me!"
"What? Mr. Guo is only nineteen years old?"
"Uh, I forgot. I couldn't celebrate the New Year even though I ran all the way. Actually, I'm twenty years old. We're both old and you don't have to call me young master, just call me Brother Hao."
Li Fu laughed at him. Along the way, Li Fu looked at Guo Hao's fierce side, treating him as an adult, and Guo Hao's face was sophisticated that he thought he was already thirty years old.
"So Guo, Brother Hao is so young, I thought you..."
Guo Hao smiled and scratched his head and said, "I'm a little anxious, but I'm really only twenty years old. If you don't believe it, when you arrive in Kaifeng, you will know."
When he returned to Central Plains again, Guo Hao really wanted to go home to see him, but he didn't know how Guo Erniu and his wife were doing.
"I believe that Brother Hao is a great hero, how could he lie to me? It's just that Fu'er has never met her parents-in-law, and I don't know if they like me."
Li Fu also knew about Qiunan. The two were childhood sweethearts, so the Guo family naturally accepted him, but she was the daughter of a beggar and was displaced since she was a child, so she felt a little inferior in her bones.
"Why don't you accept it? Fu'er is so beautiful, let alone my parents, it's me..."
Li Fu looked at Guo Hao with her big eyes open, and what Guo Hao wanted to say was a little in a while.
"Brother Hao, what are you?"
Guo Hao's face turned slightly red, and the firelight was more obvious. He held it in for a long time before speaking: "I also like the girl..."
This is not Guo Hao's fickleness. Guo Hao dares to swear to the sky. Like and love are different things. Li Fu is indeed beautiful, and not one or two people in the Beggars' Gang like her.
Li Fu felt her face a little hot when she heard this. Her handsome face looked like bright flowers, and her snow-white neck collar was dyed with a faint pink color.
"Fu'er, I also like Brother Hao."
Guo Hao felt his blood surged when he heard this, and his mouth was dry for a moment, and he wanted to throw Li Fu down immediately and swallow her into his stomach.
But this is in the cave, and there is a Guo Fu at the entrance. Guo Hao stood up unnaturally, took a deep breath and said, "I'll go outside for some breath."
Looking at Guo Hao's back, Li Fu smiled and lay on the straw. She was not that painful to be with her beloved.
...
Guo Hao stayed outside for an hour, and when he came in again, Li Fu was already asleep. Looking at the beauty in her sleep, her brows frowned slightly, as if she was dreaming, and her body was trembling a little, and it must be cold.
Guo Hao was wearing all clothes and no coat at this time. He made the fire and simply lay next to Li Fu. Li Fu felt his warmth and naturally leaned over.
There was nothing to say all night, and the three of them continued to rush on the next day. After walking for a day, they finally saw the village.
Guo Hao went up to find a family and asked, "Sister, where is this place!"
Seeing that the three of them were in a dusty state, except for Li Fu's clothes, they were a little ragged, like beggars, but they were not, they couldn't help but have some doubts.
"Who are you? This is Dongli Village."
"Dongli Village?"
Guo Hao had never heard of this name, so he clasped his fists and said, "We are businessmen from the south. Unexpectedly, we met a bandit on the way, and only a few of us escaped. We wanted to ask if there are any larger cities nearby."
It turned out to be a businessman, but it was not surprising that there were merchants robbing and robbing near the border, so there was no problem with this reason.
"Oh, then you are so pitiful. If you walk five miles north, it is Xiangzhou City. Where can you go?"
Xiangzhou City?
Isn’t that Xiangyang? They actually ran to Hubei, which is far enough.
"Thank you, sister."
After confirming his location, Guo Hao and the other two continued to rush into Xiangzhou City. Guo Hao was penniless, but Guo Fu had some money, which he gave to him before.
"Guo Fu, I'll take you. Let's get two clothes first. When I arrive in Kaifeng, I will give you a hundred coins."
Guo Hao still remembers that the money he hid was stolen from the royal palace. That place was very secret and most people could not find it.
When Guo Fu's reluctance disappeared when he heard that he was given a hundred coins, the three of them bought decent clothes, Guo Hao dressed up Li Fu as a man, and then had another meal.
After drinking and eating, Guo Hao burped with satisfaction, but Guo Fu was not happy: "Young Master, according to your flower method, we may not be able to reach Kaifeng, and we will starve to death."
Guo Hao said while picking his teeth, "What's the hurry? Follow me and you can still keep you hungry. I have your own way. Now I'm dressing up, you can carry a dog-beating stick for me in the future."
"ah?"
When he heard that he wanted to fight the dog stick, although he could carry it, no one except Guo Hao wanted to run around with a 20-pound stick, which was simply a pain.
Guo Hao didn't care whether he agreed or not, he decided to take Li Fu away from the restaurant, and Guo Fu had to follow him.
Walking on the streets of Xiangyang, Guo Hao looked around. Li Fu was also very curious about the foreign cities, which was very different from Jiangnan.
After watching for a long time, the street was almost over, but I couldn't find a suitable target, so I found a teahouse to sit down.
Guo Hao touched his chin, his beard grew a little longer. Xiangyang City was not small, but there were not many rich people on the street, and Guo Hao didn't want to attack the poor, so he had to wait and see.
At this moment, a big monk came towards me. He was white and fat, and he looked very oily and watery at first glance.
Guo Hao was not interested in the monk at first, and this monk became so fat, so he asked the two to wait in place, and he went forward to pass by the monk.
When he missed it, Guo Hao touched him gently. The monk turned around and glanced at Guo Hao, but found nothing wrong.
When the monk walked away, Guo Hao returned to the two of them. Both of them looked at Guo Hao. They saw Guo Hao take out a purse and smiled at them.
"Young Master, you..."
Guo Hao quickly blocked Guo Fu's mouth and whispered: "What are you shouting? Have you ever seen stealing anything? That monk is so fat and can't die even if he is hungry!"
After saying that, he let go of Guo Fu's mouth, and looked at Li Fu was also a little surprised and explained: "When I was a child, my family was poor and I had no ability to learn. I would not take action unless I had to. I haven't taken action for a long time and I'm a little unfamiliar."
It turned out to be for survival. Li Fu nodded. There were many such people in the Beggars' Sect, but Ang Lee didn't want them to do this because they would get used to it because they would get used to it if they were caught. Once they were caught, they would be injured at the least and die at the worst.
Moreover, they cannot compare with Guo Hao, and Guo Hao has no choice but to do it. In short, what Guo Hao does makes sense, and Li Fu thinks so.
"Now that we have money, let's find a place to live first!"
There are a lot of copper coins in the purse, and a few taels of silver, and a total of more than ten guan, which is enough for three people to live for a few days.
The monk returned to the temple and found that his wallet was missing. He wailed: "The little thief killed in heaven, he actually dared to steal my monk. Senior brother, we have to steal the money for incense and oil. We can't live this life."
After the monk finished speaking, an old monk walked out of the Zen room, and a young man was following him.
"Amitabha, Guangyuan, monks should be yelled and irritable, what do you look like when you wail like this!"
"Senior brother, I don't want to do it either, but the money is gone, what are we eating!"
"Isn't there still rice in the temple? You can eat two less meals and you won't starve to death."
"Why? If you hadn't said that a distinguished guest came to the temple and asked me to go out to buy vegetables, but now the food has not been bought back, the money has been lost!"
The young man was a little embarrassed when he heard this. He ate and lived in the temple for several days, but did nothing, and it was normal for others to complain.
So he clasped his hands together and bowed, "It's all Yuen Long's fault. Master Guangyuan, do you know where the money was left?"
"This... I came back from the street. Apart from the vegetable seller, there was only one young man who touched me. I also looked at him."
When the young man heard this, he moved his heart and said, "That's right, it's him!"
