When their boat was docked and rested, Wu Xin'an took Gui, Han Er, Huang Changsheng, and the ear that had lost weight, and went straight to the Wanjia Tavern. When the group arrived there, Wu Xin'an rushed in with her belly. Most of the people who made a living on this pier were men, few women went to the tavern, and there were no pregnant women.

As soon as she went in, the people who were in and out were frightened to dodge on both sides when they saw her big belly, for fear that they would accidentally hit her.

The owner of the tavern, Lao Wan, came out to see him, and his face was stunned.

"What are you doing in the store, Mrs.?"

Wu Xinan responded,

"You are a tavern, so you naturally come in to have a drink!"

Lao Wan looked at her belly and said in his heart without saying anything.

"Is this woman a drunkard? She still has to drink when she has such a big belly. She is not afraid of having a little drunkard!"

Even if the business comes to the door, there is no reason to push it out. He smiled and led them to the inner compartment and sat down, and said with a smile,

"There are fine wines everywhere in the shop and famous snacks in Fuzhou. I wonder which one is my wife?"

Wu Xinan waved his hand and said,

"Come on your strongest wine, and have specialty dishes, snacks and pastries. You can bring them whatever you like!"

Seeing that this person was a proud person, Lao Wan responded with a smile.

"Okay, you can wait a moment!"

In this tavern, many side dishes with wine were ready-made, and immediately served them with wine. Everyone took the side dishes when they had wine. Soon, they saw Lao Wan bringing a few bowls of bowls. Wu Xin'an looked up and saw that there were bowls of gray-white insects, translucent and gelatinous. Gui and A Xiang had never seen them before, and they looked shocked when they saw this.

"Shopkeeper, how do you give us insects?"

Lao Wan smiled when he heard this,

"Madam, don't blame us. This is our specialty called "Shusbands jelly" and its taste is sweet and fresh..."

As he spoke, he pointed to the several seasonings that were served at the same time.

"It can be combined with soy sauce, northern vinegar, sweet sauce, mustard and garlic, jellyfish, shredded white radish, etc., the flavor is very unique, you can try it..."

Gui looked at the insects in the bowl, white, fat, fat, big ears, and it made people look really disgusting and dared not raise a spoon. However, Huang Changsheng, Han Er, Wu Xin'an and that ear were all eaten with relish. Wu Xin'an smiled,

"When I was in Hangzhou, I also heard that there was such bamboo shoot jelly, and I had no chance to taste it. Today I tried it..."

Ask Lao Wan again,

"But what other rare snacks are there?"

Lao Wan smiled,

"Of course there are still..."

Soon, I brought a plate of fish balls, a small plate of glutinous rice balls, a bowl of beef soup for each person, etc., all of which were local characteristics. Wu Xin'an praised and smiled.

"Shopkeeper, your small shop looks small and you know how to cook a lot of dishes, and it tastes good!"

Lao Wan smiled,

"Thank you for your praise from the guests. Although the shop is simple, it has been three generations since the ancestors to the young. If you are supported by new and old customers, you can make a few taels of money..."

Wu Xinan asked him a few polite words, and then asked about what he had asked for.

"Shopkeeper, do you know whose ship is here that comes back from fighting Ryukyu? We want to inquire about Ryukyu?"

Lao Wan thought about it after hearing this,

"Recently, except for the Hu family's merchant ship, no one has gone to Ryukyu again..."

When you go to Ryukyu, it is usually in May, and returning in November is the best. Recently, only the Hu family's merchant ships have gone to Ryukyu.

"Hu family?"

Wu Xinan raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Then... do you know how the Hu family's merchant ship is now?"

Lao Wan thought about it and responded,

"I heard from someone to come back from the news, saying that the Hu family's merchant ship encountered a storm, and there was no news after that, but..."

This is the merchant ship that Pei He was on. Wu Xin'an immediately sat upright and asked Lao Wan with anxiety and anticipation.

"But how... do you know them...their recent news?"

When asked the last sentence, Wu Xinan's voice trembled involuntarily. Even though his master was extremely accurate in fortune-telling and rarely missed, she had not seen anyone with her own eyes, so she could not help but worry about Pei He's life and death. As she walked along the way, she suppressed her worries. In the eyes of outsiders, this pregnant woman with a big belly was confident, and she looked domineering and arrogant.

Only she knew that she didn't even dare to think of Pei He every day and night. She was afraid that when she thought of him, she would recall the dream she had in Qingyun Temple that day, the dream that Pei He was wet all over!

She gritted her teeth and didn't think about it carefully, afraid that she wouldn't be able to stand the collapse before she could reach the ground!

She held back all the way here, and when she got here, she asked the shopkeeper, and when she mentioned the Hu merchant ship, she couldn't hold on anymore. Seeing that her eyes were slightly red, Lao Wan guessed eight or nine points in her heart, and thought for a while,

"I happened to be back from Japan Island yesterday. I heard that there was news of the Hu family's merchant ship. Please wait for the younger one to go out and see if the man is there..."

Wu Xinan heard that there was news, and his eyes lit up. If there was news, it means that the fleet must have survived the storm. Pei He... Pei He must be safe!

"Okay... I'm here to get the shopkeeper!"

Wu Xinan watched Lao Wan retreat, but sat upset and looked out, wishing that his eyes could penetrate the curtain and nailed Lao Wan's back.

This room was really hard to endure for a year. After a long time, Lao Wan turned around, but he led a big man with red face in. Lao Wan pointed at this person and said,

"This Yang Laojiu just came back from the Japanese island. He knew about the Hu family's merchant ship. Mrs. should I ask him!"

Wu Xinan was overjoyed when he heard this and invited Yang Laojiu to sit down. When Yang Laojiu sat down, he felt a sense of alcohol. When everyone looked at him, they found that this person was not naturally blushing, but had eaten a lot of alcohol. After the alcohol was so angry that his head blushed as blood.

Yang Laojiu is a good wine lover. She sat down and didn't say anything. Instead, she stared at the wine jar on the table and said with a smile.

"Mrs. She is so generous. She has picked out the best wine in Lao Wan. I heard that it is the top wine from Persia. Lao Wan can't sell a jar in a year or two. You have three jars here!"

Seeing this, Wu Xinan reached out and brought a bar of unopened hull to him.

"Bang……"

"As long as you are willing to tell me about the Hu merchant ship, I will give you all the wine you want to eat!"

When Yang Laojiu heard this, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, and asked,

"Madam, do you take this seriously?"

This kind of wine costs one or two silver jar. Although he earned some money outside, he had to send it home to support his mother. The wife had six kids. On weekdays, he just ate a few copper bottles of water and turbid wine. He could only smell such good wine.

Wu Xinan didn't say anything, slapped the mud seal on the wine jar, poured the bright red wine into the bowl in front of him, and raised his hand and said,

"please!"

Seeing this, Yang Laojiu was overjoyed. He held up his hands, raised his neck and became stuffy. Then he pulled his sleeves and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"Good wine!"

As he said that, he wanted to stretch out the bowl, but Wu Xinan reached out and pressed the mouth of the altar.

"you say……"

Then Yang Laojiu put down the wine bowl and said,

"Madam wants to inquire about the Hu family's merchant ship, but this little one knows..."

It turned out that the Hu family merchant ship encountered a storm near Diaoyu Island that day, which was really dangerous. It was clear that the waves were calm and peaceful, but in a blink of an eye, a trace of black water rolled in the sky. It was too late for Hu Yuan to turn the sails and drive towards Diaoyu Island quickly. The entire fleet only walked about two miles before it encountered wind and waves on the side.

The huge waves were overwhelmed, pressing down like a small hill. A boat could only use a rope to tie himself tightly to a fixed place near the body, allowing the boat to fall like a dead leaf in the stormy waves, and was arched by the wave for half a day, and then quickly slapped to the bottom of the waves.

As the ups and downs were all heard, the hull was raking and making a terrifying sound. At this time, there was only a dark sea between heaven and earth, connecting the sky and the earth. The people on the boat had no distinction between the upper and lower parts and no debate.

After being so hard, Guangchen, who had been in full swing for half a day, was pushed out to the edge of the storm by the waves and strong winds. When they came to their senses and carefully distinguished the direction, they were blown near the Japanese island!

At this time, the Hu family caravans all had broken masts and poles, and they were unable to set off, so they had to dock and rest and ask people to repair the ships locally.

"When the young man left, their merchant ship was still mooring at the port, and I think it would take some more repairs!"

Wu Xinan hurriedly asked after hearing this,

"Then... can anyone among them be injured, or missing... dead... dead?"

Yang Laojiu responded,

"Those who go out to sea to make a living are stuffing their heads into the mouth of the fish. Where can there be immortals..."

After a pause, Wu Xinan's face turned pale, he continued,

"I heard that some people had been broken..."

Wu Xinan's face turned paler and his lips trembled. He asked,

"That's...

She originally wanted to ask if there was a person named Pei He, but she remembered that Pei He had come out to do a secret job and must not use his real name, so she changed her mouth and asked.

"You can see a young man in that caravan, who is... handsome..."

After asking, she remembered that she was secretly handling the matter, but she was afraid that she would not even show her true face. She couldn't ask in detail in this way. Fortunately, Yang Laojiu laughed.

"When it comes to the young master, the young man met someone on the merchant ship..."

As he said that, he showed an envious expression and said,

"That young man is really blessed... There are women around him everywhere he goes. I heard that he is handsome because of his appearance, and there are daughters of several families on the Japanese island who are chasing him to sleep!"
