Chapter 20
Chapter 20: 020
On the day Jiang Chaosheng came back, the road from the beach to his house was crowded with people watching the lively. The handsome young city lord got off the big boat surrounded by the crowd, and in the gap between the crowd, the people saw the looming face of the city lord.
There are about 1,000 households in Qiongzhou New City, with a total population of more than 3,500 people. Except for the first 100 or so villagers, not many people have close contact with Jiang Chaosheng.
Even if they have seen Jiang Chaosheng, because of the identity of the other party’s prince and city lord, they dare not look up at his face, and glance at him from a distance. Most people only know that the city lord is handsome and elegant.
This time, of course, they didn’t dare to stare at Jiang Chaosheng’s face carefully, for fear that they would be taken as bad intentions, and then arrested by those officers and soldiers who looked tall, mighty and ferocious. But across the crowd, they noticed Jiang Chaosheng’s hand, and then stood on tiptoe and looked closer. The crowd seemed to be frozen, and the picture stopped.
The world is quiet, and only Jiang Chaosheng’s people are alive. Under the guidance of the guards, the handsome city lord pushed the unbelievable beauty into the house. The heavy door carved with dragons and painted phoenixes slowly opened, and then slowly. Slowly closed, and locked the heart-breaking bright light in the big mansion, completely isolating the sight of outsiders from prying eyes.
People who went to the scene to watch the lively mentioned the scene and couldn’t help but sigh, the fishmonger in charge of cutting the fish said: “My dear, those hands are so beautiful, the bones are bones, the meat is meat, it looks just right, Those hands were pure and white, and at first glance they were the hands of nobles, and there was no calluses at all! It was more beautiful than any fish I have cut!”
The eldest son of the fishmonger who knew several characters said: “Dad, how can you compare the fish with the city master? You should say that the flesh and bones are well-proportioned and the texture is delicate.”
“Yes, yes, that’s what it means anyway?” said the fishmonger surnamed Zhang, “I was squeezing around in the crowd, and I just watched the hand push forward and never put it down, and felt strange in my heart. You see, we normal people walk with their hands raised and swung, and the city owner has been holding them up, so there must be something wrong. I squeezed in and squeezed past, and finally squeezed to the front, and when I saw…”
When he said this, he took a deep breath. The family hurriedly urged him: “What’s the result? Don’t be rude, tell me quickly!”
“It turned out that the city lord pushed a chair and walked forward. There were four small wheels under the chair. Like a carriage and an ox cart, it rolled forward. Who has the ability to let the city lord push it away?” Once Zhang fishmonger did not sell any more, he couldn’t wait to say, “I saw a stunning beauty with black hair, red lips and snow-white skin sitting on that rolling chair!”
The man tsk tsk repeatedly, with envious words: “It’s so good, the city owner can get such a beautiful woman.”
Although the beauty is bad at work and can’t manage the family business, but such a face is enough to make the men in the world do more for him. It seems that he is still reminiscing about the scene where he was shocked by the beauty of the city, and then his arm was pinched fiercely by his wife: I told you to covet beauty, watch the fun and delay business, dog man!
There are people like the Zhang family who are purely watching the fun, and there are those who are full of anger and throw away a lot of precious porcelain: “Hu Meizi doesn’t have a face, why should he match King An, he is still a cripple, who knows if he was caught by those pirates? Defiled, unclean things!”
The little maid on the side persuaded her angry master: “King An welcomes the beauty back, maybe it’s a concubine. A person who is not good at work will definitely not be the wife of the city master. Only you are worthy of that position.”
The woman who lost her temper complained again: “That’s why Jiang Lang knows my wisdom.” Saying so, but everyone is looking forward to having such a face, after all, most people in the world are superficial, even if there is no inner beauty, Good looks are enough to win the hearts of 90% of men in the world.
Similar farces are still being staged in every corner of this vibrant city, and even spread to the surrounding Wangzhou and beyond.
The hotly debated party was completely different from what they had guessed. As soon as the gate of Jiang’s house was closed, the poor and stunning beauty jumped up from the wheelchair and jumped directly onto Jiang Chaosheng’s body. Pretending to be quiet and cold all the way, the dignified and elegant little merman hugged his benefactor’s neck unruly at all: “It’s uncomfortable to wear this dress, Chaosheng, you help me untie it, I want to swim!”
Ji Xuanbing was able to throw away his coat by himself, and the layers of silk were woven into this gorgeous fairy-like dress covered by the little merman through the exquisite skills of the embroiderer.
Clouds were randomly thrown on the grass outside the pond, like a cloud falling from the sky. After the candy-colored coat peeled off, there was no sweet pulp, because there was a layer of more personal packaging inside.
Ji Xuanbing wore a special one-piece inside. The upper body was a very serious lining, cut from snow white Yunjin, which was close to the body and soft, but the lower body was very unique, because the position of the trouser legs was connected to two short artificial legs. , the degree of roughness is pale and false to the naked eye.
Naturally, it is impossible for this special one-piece suit to have a zipper, which is an inter-era product. All the connections are ribbons, which are slender, long and complicated entangled ribbons, helping this lively little boy. The merman completed today’s grand performance in front of thousands of people.
The residents of Qiongzhou New City are not too many, but there are many foreigners who are seeking business here. They participated in this lively together, and when they turn around, they will tell the master behind them what they have seen.
Jiang Chaosheng put his finger on a beautiful bow on the complicated knot, and with a gentle pull of his long finger, he dexterously shuttled several times, and the knots that were almost connected into a net were scattered in an instant, letting the fake The legs slid down with the trousers, revealing the gleaming fish tail. The young man’s brows and eyes were filled with joy, as if he had unwrapped a well-wrapped gift.
“Huh…” Ji Xuanbing let out a long sigh of relief.
Jiang Chaosheng patted the fish’s tail lightly: “Don’t you want to swim, go ahead, I have someone change a new water in advance, which is the seawater specially drawn from a slightly distant place.”
The black-haired little merman rolled his eyes like green glaze, wrapped his arms around his lover’s neck and acted coquettishly: “It’s too far from the pond, I’ve been sitting all the way, and my tail is numb, Chaosheng, can you hold me over there? ?”
Such a lively and fragrant little beauty is coquettish in her arms, as long as it is a normal man, she will not refuse. Jiang Chaosheng’s eyes darkened, knowing that the mermaid in his arms just wanted to be lazy, but he should walk to the vicinity of the fish pond with the other’s tail in his eyes, and bent over to put the little mermaid into the water.
His movements were extremely steady, and Ji Xuanbing didn’t feel even a little bump. Back in the water, the merman could not shirk his weakness. If the merman has water, it’s not enough, wouldn’t it make people laugh.
Ji Xuanbing was undulating in the water, and Jingmei was even more beautiful. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After a while, the black juice fell down his hair.
Ji Xuanbing touched his dirty hair, took a picture of the clear pool water, and swam to the shore in a hurry: “Chaosheng, my hair has faded!”
Ji Xuanbing’s hair has always been blue. Not to mention Qiongzhou, this hair color can’t be found in the entire continent. But today, his first appearance in front of everyone is indeed black hair and blue eyes. This beautiful blue silk in the eyes of outsiders was of course dyed with the popular hair dye.
Soak large black beans in vinegar for two days, filter out excess impurities, it is a natural black hair dye, you don’t need to make it yourself, you can buy it directly from the store. However, this pure natural and cheap hair color cream will not last for too long. The little merman just swam in the water for a while, and his hair changed from pure black to a faint dark blue.
Jiang Chaosheng’s tone was sparse and ordinary, and he did not take this as a major event: “If it falls, it will fall, and it will not be in the way.”
The little merman pursed his lips: “But I like my black hair, it looks exactly like Engong.” In fact, he also likes his original hair, but everyone likes freshness, and Ji Xuanbing has not experienced that freshness.
Jiang Chaosheng said: “You are a merman, a citizen of the sea, blue hair is the gift of the sea to you, and so is the fish tail. I like your fish tail and your hair.”
He didn’t originally plan to let Ji Xuanbing dye his hair all the time, but it was the first time the other party showed up in front of so many outsiders today, so he wanted to leave a first impression of his kind.
Although most of these people are kind-hearted, there is a saying that people who are not my kind will be punished. As a deep-sea alien, Ji Xuanbing can easily become the target of public criticism. Most of the fishermen live on the sea. When they had an accident before, they only blamed themselves for their bad luck and God did not care for them. If you know that Ji Xuanbing is a mermaid, under the push of someone with a heart, dirty water will be splashed on Ji Xuanbing’s head. Just as one of the human beings, Jiang Chaosheng didn’t want to tell the despicableness of the same kind to the little sharks.
Ji Xuanbing touched his hair, and after hearing what Engong said, he liked the original blue hair better. After all, he still loves the sea and himself. He is a self-respecting and self-loving little merman, and with his benefactor, he will not change his mind easily.
“Actually, I also like my blue hair! I have always been a merman, and I have always liked Chaosheng!” The little merman who once again showed his sincerity in front of his benefactor couldn’t help but feel distressed. , “But now it’s neither black nor blue, it looks dirty and ugly.”
Jiang Chaosheng did not dislike it, and he also disliked it. The merman is a race that loves beauty by nature. They love the beauty of others as well as their own beauty.
“If your hair is dirty, I’ll wash it for you.” He walked to the well water. “Come here and I’ll wash you with clean water.” The sea water looked clear, but there was still a lot of salt and other substances in it.
Jiang Chaosheng didn’t mean to call others to come in and serve him. On the one hand, it was because he was the only one who knew Ji Xuanbing’s secret. The other party was now a fish tail, and outsiders would definitely reveal their secrets and spend so much time disguising.
There is another reason, that is, Ji Xuanbing is not as close as he thought. When he dyed his hair, the little merman who had already put on special clothes refused to let others use it, and almost couldn’t control his sharp claws and fangs to scratch the maid. No matter how skilled and gentle other people’s movements are, as long as it’s not Jiang Chaosheng, it won’t work. For the sake of other people’s lives, Jiang Chaosheng, the master, had no choice but to take on this sweet responsibility.
“Great!” Ji Xuanbing was waiting for Jiang Chaosheng to say this. Almost as soon as the latter spoke, he jumped out with a cheer, and quickly moved a rattan chair and a small wooden stool by the well, and then quite Lie down skillfully.
This time, his movements were very fast, not like when he first met, he took one step and stopped three steps, and moved slowly. Anyway, in front of outsiders, he is already a member of the benefactor, and the famous little mermaid’s tail is shaking.
Even if the benefactor discovers his sinister and cunning true face and doesn’t want the little merman, he is absolutely impossible to let the benefactor abandon him forever!
Before Jiang Chaosheng came over from the fish pond, Ji Xuanbing raised his hand and scooped up the water without any effort. The clear water spurted out of the well and washed his hair automatically. The juice of the hair dye was washed down by the water, and the dark blue hair was gradually washed into a clearer sea blue. The little shark couldn’t wait to urge: “I’m ready, Chaosheng, wash my hair for me!”
Although he can complete all the work by himself, some things are different by himself. He has no feeling at all when combing his scalp with his fingers. I felt numb all over my body, and the fish tail couldn’t help but roll up and stretch out. However, in order to prevent Jiang Chaosheng from working too hard, Ji Xuanbing finished all the unimportant things. He still has to try his best to disguise himself and be a caring and well-behaved little merman!
The sharks living in the sea don’t have the trouble of blowing their hair. After washing, as long as they shake it skillfully, the hair will be dry and cool, exuding the same fragrance of grass and trees as Jiang Chaosheng.
The domineering little shark and Jiang Chaosheng used the same pancreas. He insisted that through day-in and day-out efforts, he was covered with the same taste as Engong. In this way, those fox spirits outside smelled the smell and knew that Jiang Chaosheng belonged to his Ji Xuanbing, and could only be defeated in vain!
Speaking of identity, Ji Xuanbing remembered a very important thing: “Eunuch, when will we be able to get married?”
They are already engaged. This is what Jiang Chaosheng said personally. It was all about half a month ago. Now Ji Xuanbing is no longer satisfied with a simple kiss. Cubs.
Although it is said that the benefactor will definitely arrange everything, but as a little merman who attaches great importance to progress, how can he not care about his marriage!
Jiang Chaosheng has already planned: “Wait for spring, wait until next spring to get married.”
It is only half a year away from the auspicious day of next spring. From now on, he will build his new house, and he will be able to move in next spring. At the same time, shops with various color hair creams will also be spread in Qiongzhou and other places.
People with colorful hair will appear in various places in Qiongzhou New City. Those ordinary people who like to be conservative and afraid of change may not be able to accept this kind of hair color, and Jiang Chaosheng never thought of letting them accept it.
He made the hair coloring cream available, and his original intention was to prevent Ji Xuanbing, who has blue hair, from appearing too dazzling in the crowd. The hair dye, which is most likely to be acclimatized, is obviously a loss-making business.
“It’s really a big loss.” As a human being, this is the first time he has done such a loss-making business. But for the safety of the little shark, Jiang Chaosheng would do the same, knowing that he would lose money.
“Chaosheng, what are you talking about?” The beautiful little merman tilted his head and looked at him, “Are you out of money? It doesn’t matter, I don’t need a lot of dowry, and I’ll give you all my dowry!”
Getting married naturally requires preparing a dowry. Ji Xuanbing has thought about it. He will move all the savings in his residence to Jiang Chaosheng!
When the King Shark gets married, he will definitely announce to the entire sea area that he may not come to his wedding, but the money must be given. The brides in the human world still seem to be wearing makeup, and Ji Xuanbing has already thought about the makeup for the high priest!
The high priest of the merman in the sea shuddered and spit out a series of bubbles, for some reason he had an ominous premonition.
Jiang Chaosheng didn’t take Ji Xuanbing’s words seriously. The little merman was so poor that he couldn’t even afford some dried fish. The so-called treasure hidden by pirates and Ji Xuanbing’s dowry were all faked by him. The little merman will produce precious materials, but those are his tears. Jiang Chaosheng wants to be good to him, not for the merman’s tears.
Jiang Chaosheng rubbed Ji Xuanbing’s particularly soft blue silk: “Don’t think about it, although I am not rich enough to rival a country, but I have an island. It is more than enough to support you, and the money will be left to you. You don’t want to raise a child in the future. Fish cub, still need some money to buy something for it.”
He kissed Ji Xuanbing’s corner of the eye: “Xuanbing’s eyes are beautiful, and they are more beautiful when they laugh than when they cry. Hard-hearted people are willing to make them cry.”
Ji Xuanbing was moved to tears, but the corners of his brows and eyes were trying to turn upwards. After all, the benefactor had said that he looked better when he laughed than when he cried, and he liked Jiang Chaosheng to praise him for being beautiful!
Jiang Chaosheng changed the topic: “My parents’ life, the matchmaker’s words, you accompany me to write a letter to the family, and I have to inform my parents about getting married with you.”
By the way, he wanted to teach this little merman to read, lest he was not by his side, and this idiot merman would be fooled at will.
At present, the entire Qiongzhou New City is under Jiang Chaosheng’s control, including the trend of public opinion in the city. Under his guidance, a new love story quickly spread around Qiongzhou. Jiang Chaosheng also specially compiled a new book of words from the previous storyteller, and told a rather legendary love story vividly and vividly in the tone of an insider.
In this story, Ji Xuanbing became the princess of an unknown small country. She was beautiful and loved by the people, and she fought pirates bravely for her people. During Jiang Chaosheng’s journey to the sea, he unfortunately encountered a storm at sea and accidentally fell into the country where the princess lived, and was rescued by the princess. In order to save him, the princess was chopped off by the pirates and injured her legs, so she was left with leg problems, but this did not affect Jiang Chaosheng’s kindness to the princess. He decided to make a promise to marry the princess.
One is the prince in distress, and the other is the princess of a small country. The appearance is even more handsome and beautiful, standing together is a pair of beautiful people who can be drawn into the picture.
This kind of love story that promises each other is actually very cliché, but in this age when most people are simple and honest, it is simply touching! In addition, the storyteller’s eloquence is very good, and he adds fuel to his own play, calling the crisis an ups and downs, which is worrying. There are many elements of perseverance and heroism in it, which perfectly stabbed the hearts of the people, and also ushered in countless rewards.
This story has been told dozens of times, but there are still many people who listen to it with relish. It is said that every day there are people with tears in their eyes, and some people even shout outside the city lord’s mansion, urging Jiang Chaosheng to quickly marry such a beautiful princess.
If Ji Xuanbing hadn’t participated in the planning of the whole process, he would have thought that he was a princess of a small country. “Princess of a small country” while learning the words, counted the date of marriage with her fingers, and this book of words also arrived in Kyoto with the messenger, and spread to the ears of the noble concubine, the emperor, and the reborn four princes.
