Chapter 411 Water Bandits

After leaving Nishang Pavilion, we went into Fengming Restaurant.

"Girl Shen, why have you lost weight?" As soon as Uncle Shen saw Shen Yuxi, he came over with a loving look on his face, looking at Shen Yuxi's tanned face, he was full of heartache.

"Uncle, don't worry, the sun is brighter in the south, and everyone is darker than me, hehe." He took out a tickle and gave it to Uncle Shen, "Uncle, don't you always ask my aunt to scratch your back? This is called "not asking for help." ',You don't have to ask my aunt to scratch your itch from now on, hehe."

"Why is this girl so considerate? She's still made of jade, so it must not be cheap." Uncle Shen scratched his back as he spoke, and kept saying it was helpful.

When they entered the backyard, they saw Aunt Shen and Aunt Bai making spicy cabbage while chatting and laughing. Shen Yuxi tiptoed over and covered their eyes.

"Girl Shen? It's definitely you." Aunt Shen and Aunt Bai each clasped one of her hands. When they turned around and saw Shen Yuyu standing behind her, smiling hard, their eyes instantly turned red, "This girl has been out for so long. Don't you miss home? When you come back, you should come and see us old guys first. I miss you so much.'

Shen Yuyu hurriedly hugged the two ladies, "I miss you too, give me a hug, lick lick lick~~" As he said this, he rubbed their foreheads, as if they were his own mother and daughter who had been separated for a long time.

The three of them talked affectionately for a while, and Shen Yuyu naturally brought them gifts, each of them a gold and jade bracelet.

After that, Shen Yuyu went to the kitchen to visit several brothers. It was difficult to choose gifts for the brothers. Finally, at Ji Xun's suggestion, he ordered jade pendants in a jewelry shop. Shopkeeper Li's gifts were also jade pendants, with engraved on them. Several people's names.

For example, the character for Shen Xingwang is Yiwang, and the character for Shen Yongping is Ping. Needless to say, it is very meaningful.

The brothers were also very touched when they received this gift. They were not good at words and just had tears in their eyes. They smiled and nodded at Shen Yuxi, and then put it away like a treasure.

They had longed for a sister, and God was kind to them and made their dream come true.

Shopkeeper Li and Shen Xingwang's jade pendants were given to them in the lobby of the restaurant. Shopkeeper Li was grinning happily.

"This girl~~ is so diligent in everything she does, how can she not do well in business? I will leave it at that today. The World Commercial Bank will become the number one firm in Dazhou in less than two years!'

Shen Xingwang happily tied the jade pendant around his waist, took two beautiful steps, then picked it up with satisfaction, rubbed the word "Wang" on it, and said thank you to Sister Yu with a smile.

"Axue, come up with me." Shen Yuhu greeted Bai Yixue and led Bai Yixue to the reception room on the second floor.

"Axue, you also have a gift."

"Really?" Bai Yixue's face was full of surprise. She always thought that she didn't do it well. She was thinking about what she didn't do well, and maybe she had forgotten it, but she didn't expect it. It was such a surprise.

The two sat down at the table, and Shen Yuyu took out a box with something wrapped in a brocade handkerchief.

"Open it and take a look." Shen Yuyu looked at Bai Yixue with a smile.

Bai Yixue hummed, slowly opened the brocade handkerchief, and burst into tears when she saw a golden Bu Yao embedded with Dong beads inside.

"This, this is my favorite golden walking stick. I once dropped the pearl on it, and then reinstalled it, leaving a trace of it~~Sister Yu Yu, where did you find it? "Bai Yixue has burst into tears.

This was her favorite accessory when she was the daughter of the Prime Minister of the Qi Dynasty. She never thought that after her house was confiscated and her family was exterminated, this old thing would be able to return to her hands. No one knew how she was feeling at the moment~~ No one I know how touched she is at this moment.

"Look? How are you crying?" Shen Yuyu hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief. It took Bai Yixue a while to calm down, and she took the walking stick in her hand, looked at it carefully, and touched it carefully.

"I bought this at a government sale in Da Qi Beicheng." Shen Yue explained that the government sale, as the name suggests, is a government auction of confiscated officials' property. Shen Yue and Ji Xun went to see it when they were bored. I happened to see the items belonging to the Prime Minister's Mansion being auctioned, so I bought this golden walking wave and spent a lot of money.

But it's worth it. Bai Yixue is so loyal and will definitely be the most trustworthy person around Li Ye in the future.

Bai Yixue knew that there was nothing she could say to express her gratitude, so she stopped talking. The two played with the golden walking stick for a while, and Shen Yue even took off the golden hairpin given by Ji Xun on her head to compare. After some research, one was inlaid with rubies and the other was inlaid with East beads. They are both top-notch jewelry.

That night, the whole family had a reunion dinner and everyone drank wine. I have to say that the potato wine was also very delicious, no less than other wines.

The next day was the day to deliver rice to Lishui Village. Shen Yuyu asked Shen Xingwang to buy rice and potatoes the day before and took them directly to Dahe Town.

The convoy delivering food ingeniously planted flags with the words "Tianxia Trading Company" facing the wind.

At noon, all the food had been loaded onto the cargo ship and was ready to be taken to Lishui Village.

"Dad Boss, do you want to go to Lishui Village together?" Ha Kun, the head of Lishui Village, asked Shen Yuyu with a simple smile. He could find so much food in such a major disaster year. Every time he expressed his profound thoughts, There is a smile hidden in every wrinkle.

With the blessing of the Immortal God, the tribesmen in the village were finally saved.

"That's right." Shen Yuyu nodded and touched the sword on his body, "I will take a few people to escort your food to Lishui Village in case you encounter water bandits on the road." There are good people in the Western Region, and there are also many bad people. Here, It would be troublesome if we encountered robbers in such a bad year.

Shen Yuyu was accompanied by Bai Yixue and three secret guards sent by General Wei Liang to protect her. These three secret guards usually did not show up and hid in the dark. If anything happened, they would be at her disposal.

With the escort of the five of them, this ship of food should be able to reach its destination safely.

Of course, in addition to this reason, Shen Yuyu also has another reason to go to the grasslands of the Western Regions. She has to find a cold place to plant highland barley in space. After all, the climate in space is not an alpine area. What? You have to try it to be sure.

Hearing that he would help them escort the food to Lishui Village, the village chief Hakun bowed with emotion and enthusiastically led them onto the boat, then set anchor and sailed down the river.

After driving along the river for an hour, we turned into a tributary on the west side and continued moving forward.

This tributary is also extremely wide and can accommodate three or four ships traveling parallel.

"Be careful." Shen Yuyu warned as he stood on the deck and looked at the two ships approaching.

"There are two boats coming from behind." Bai Yixue looked behind. She had a good view and noticed something was wrong. "There were many people on the boat, at least fifty people."

"There's something wrong." The secret guard named Shadow also said, "It's most likely a water bandit."
