Chapter 891 Opening the Clam

Xiao Yu turned around and smiled slightly, "However, it would be a good thing if King An takes the capital. In this way, we will be famous."

Gu Fei blinked, "Will it be under the guise of killing the rebels then?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Yes, now we are just supporting the troops to respect ourselves, and it is not considered a rebellion. When King An takes the capital, our surname Xiao will be orthodox, and we can legitimately attack the capital."

Gu Fei said funnyly: "It's just a fig leaf after all."

Xiao Yu touched her head and said, "It's different. People in the world often need the fig leaf of righteousness."

He rubbed Gu Fei's cheek a few times and whispered in her ear: "We haven't practiced dual cultivation for a long time. Well, isn't it time to practice hard?"

Stone stood guard outside the tent, and the sounds inside kept ringing in his ears. He looked at the sky, wishing he could find a wife.

Within two days, Gu Fei’s mother’s family sent a letter saying that they would open clams tomorrow and asked Gu Fei if she could go.

How could Gu Fei not go? The pearl clam was implanted by her own hands. She said to the mother-in-law sent by her family: "Go, I will go early tomorrow morning."

The prince has already informed the princess, and now she has complete freedom in the palace. She can go wherever she wants, and the princess never asks.

Early the next morning, after having breakfast, Gu Fei went to pay her respects to the princess before taking leave and heading out of the city.

The carriage went straight to the head of the field before stopping.

From a distance, I saw many people gathered around the pond.

Everyone in the family was there. Lanzhi sat on the edge with a big belly. Li Chunhua stood holding a small tree and watched the excitement. Gu Zhang had long been looking forward to his daughter's arrival and looked at the road many times. He saw the carriage in the distance. , when the carriage stopped, he was already standing on the roadside, waiting for Gu Fei with a smile.

Gu Fei jumped down from the carriage and shouted happily, "Dad!"

Gu Zhang waved his hand and said, "Let's go. The clams are getting better now. We haven't opened yet, so I'm waiting for you to come over."

"My daughter is blessed. When you come, the pearls will be many and big."

Gu Fei smiled brightly. It had been almost two years since the pearl clam was implanted. It was a good time to harvest it.

A few people walked to the pond and the onlookers got out of the way. Gu Fei saw Xing'er in the crowd. Xing'er no longer looked as gloomy as before. When Gu Fei looked over, she smiled at her. .

The rest are fellow villagers. Now that the autumn harvest has finished long ago, there is little work in the fields and everyone is not busy, so they come together to watch the fun.

Gu Fei saw that many large pearl clams had been thrown on the ground by the pond.

Mrs. Chen looked at her with a smile, "Hey, my daughter is here to open the clam!"

The one who opened the clams was the long-term worker in the family, and he had always led the people to take care of the pond.

The long worker squatted on the ground, holding a sharp knife in his hand. The tip of the knife penetrated the gap of a pearl clam, made a circle, and then pried it hard.

The clam was opened, and Gu Fei saw the plump clam meat.

The villagers all around stretched their necks. Qian was the most anxious, "Where are the pearls? Are there any pearls?"

Chang Gong squeezed inside the clam, and a pink pearl the size of his little finger squeezed out.

People around him exclaimed, "There really are pearls!" This was the first time for northerners like them to see pearls coming out of clams with their own eyes.

The long-term worker put the pearls he took out into a white porcelain basin.

Gu Fei saw that the pearl was quite round and had a good luster.
