People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

The two got the mutton pancakes and asked the boss to add more pepper. They found a quiet place and swallowed one. They felt a burst of anger from their stomachs and their whole bodies suddenly felt warm.

"Sister-in-law Xiaolan, this Hu cake is not as delicious as the one at home. It's still two dollars more expensive." Xu Xiaoqin finished one cake and remembered to taste it.

"I think so too. Can you have another one?"

Xu Xiaoqin shook his head.

What does it mean to have big eyes but a small belly button? When they bought it, both of them wanted to eat three cakes, but the reality was that their bellies were bulging after eating one.

"Then take it with you and go inside with me to burn incense."

Cai Xiaolan didn't believe this, but she came anyway.

Not many people go inside, and there are even fewer poor people in ordinary clothes. Those who come and go are all dignitaries in rich clothes. The cotton-padded clothes of Cai Xiaolan and Xu Xiaoqin are particularly eye-catching among a large number of furs. Since her time travel, her body has gained a lot of weight, but it is nothing in front of a bunch of mainstream ladies who have grown up.

This does not mean that the beauties of the Tang Dynasty were just right.

Those are the only ones that can be called beautiful. The rest are even worse. Who can control obesity?

There are also ways to eat without getting fat. Even if these people have harmonious facial features, soft jade and soft flowers, and red lips and pink face, they are still excluded from mainstream beauty. However, they are sympathetic to each other. Even though their identities are very different, you can guess the appearance of each other just by looking at their backs.

"Pick Xiaolan!"

Xiaolan and Xiaoqin were walking in front, and suddenly heard someone calling them from behind. When they turned around, they saw it was their old friend - Lu Shiyu.

Lu Shiyu came with a group. Her sisters, daughters-in-law and sisters-in-law were all surrounded by her grandmother, and there was a bustle of people. Her shout attracted a lot of people's attention. The first person to pay attention to her was not Cai Xiaolan, but the old grandmother in the crowd, "Do you still act like a girl when you are shouting outside?"

She immediately nodded in agreement.

And Cai Xiaolan finally recognized who was hiding under the cloak, and waved her hands repeatedly, "Shiyu——"

Lu Shiyu had just been scolded and did not dare to run up. He just waved to her secretly. When the crowd arrived in front of Cai Xiaolan, he whispered a few words to her and hurriedly explained to her that this was the same place in the afternoon, and there was a The host of the New Year Poetry Party sent her an invitation letter.

Cai Xiaolan thought it would be okay in the afternoon, then nodded in agreement.

During the bustling incense-burning journey, Cai Xiaolan met such an acquaintance. The little novice monk who was in charge of guiding was a snobbery. As soon as the luxuriously dressed people came, he would call them madam and immediately invite them inside. Those who didn't have such a face just queued aside. It took until noon before Cai Xiaolan made a New Year's wish and took Xu Xiaoqin back together.

The two of them saw a luxurious restaurant on the way, and they were so greedy that they couldn't walk any further.

"Xiaoqin, how about I take you to have a nice meal?" Cai Xiaolan made a suggestion.

"Of course it's good, but -" Xu Xiaoqin raised the pancake in his hand, "It's not finished yet!"

"It's getting cold. It's the first day of the year. Let's eat something good."

There were many customers in the store, and they were noisy and noisy. The earth dragon is burning brightly, and the wine-warming stove is also on fire. It's steaming upstairs and downstairs. The two of them were individual travelers and civilians. The waiter in the store led them into the lobby.

The two of them sat down and ordered four dishes, a fish, a plate of roasted mutton, stewed mutton soup, and a plate of wok for good luck.

"Oh, isn't this the third wife?"

While waiting for the food, Cai Xiaolan heard someone calling her from behind again, and she was curious: "What's wrong with going out today? Why do you keep running into familiar people?"

She turned around and looked carefully for a long time before she recognized the other person as Cui Niang.

"Cui Niang, you have changed so much!"

Cui Niang's face is much prettier than before, her complexion is rosy, her waist is much wider, her body is made of silk and satin, and her chest is exposed with a large expanse of snow-white.

The woman thought for a moment and then walked over. "Hey, Xiaolan, you have changed a lot! Two days ago, I heard Shuangquan said that you were coming to Chang'an, but I didn't expect you to be here now. Why don't you come upstairs with me and let's catch up on old times! Just our family and Xiang Mother's family!" Cuiniang was very grateful to Cai Xiaolan. During the flood days, if it hadn't been for the food she sent, she couldn't imagine what life would have been like.

Cai Xiaolan shook her head, "I have already made peace with Cui Boyan, so in what capacity can I go up?"

"Uh-" Cui Niang was also stunned. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

"Aniang——" the child upstairs yelled like crazy.

"Ah! If you have time, come and sit at home. I have a new daughter, who is just getting married." Cuiniang said her current address and ran away in embarrassment.

But Cai Xiaolan didn't even listen. In her opinion, the Cui family didn't miss the old relationship at all. Now that things have happened, why bother putting a hot face on someone's cold butt.

Serve the meal.

When Cui Niang arrived at the private room upstairs, Xiaobao ran all over the place looking for her mother. The maid and wet nurse couldn't coax her, so they quickly took her into their arms. After a while, it became quiet.

"Guess who I saw down there?" Cuiniang pretended to be mysterious.

"Who?" Xiangniang asked.

"Pick Xiaolan!"

"Ah?" Xiang Niang was startled.

Cui Dongping, who was closer to the two of them, jumped three feet high. "Real or false? Why did the three brothers and sister-in-law come to Chang'an? Are they here to find us?" She was the only one in the family who didn't know that Cai Xiaolan had been summoned by the emperor. .

Shuangquan and Changcai also became interested.

"Really, it's in the lobby downstairs." Cuiniang said firmly.

"Then why don't you ask her to come up and eat together? You can show her how good our life is now. It was a completely wrong decision for her to go against her at the beginning!" Xiang Niang also gained weight, and the clothes around her waist were bulging. , stacked two or three layers.

"Xiang Niang is right! It's time to ask her to come up and see how luxurious our life is now. We eat a table full of food and eat it before we can finish it." Cui Shuangquan pointed to the table in front of him, including chicken, duck, fish, delicacies from the mountains and the sea. .

Cui Changcai followed suit and said a few sarcastic words, and the three people in the room became more and more happy.

Cui Niang coughed dryly, "Please forgive me if you have to!"

When Cui Dongping saw a room full of people belittling Cai Xiaolan, he immediately felt unhappy, "Why are you doing this? I'll go find the third brother and sister-in-law to eat together."

The two brothers couldn't stop them, and their faces turned red again.

Cui Dongping walked downstairs in three steps and two steps at a time. He found Cai Xiaolan in the crowd at a glance, "Third brother and sister-in-law——"

Cai Xiaolan heard the voice and knew who it was.

"Dong Ping, come and sit down!" Xu Xiaoqin, who was sitting opposite, saw his childhood friend at a glance.

"Xiaoqin!"

"Oh, women have changed in their eighteenth year, Dongping has become a beautiful woman!" Cai Xiaolan praised.

This time he opened up his chat bag. He talked about his experiences in recent years even though he was not talking as frequently as he was eating.

"Oops, I forgot. We were asked to go to the Poetry Festival, which is right next to the Huayan Temple. Dongping, do you want to go with us?" (End of Chapter)
