Chapter 85 Banquet Preparations!

The most common thing in the side hall was fireworks, and Xiao Ran had prepared a lot of them.

If there are too few, it will be a little disappointing. If there are more, it will be more spectacular.

There was no such thing in the Tang Dynasty, so the people of Chang'an City also spoke up and remembered this unforgettable day.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang were also busy, moving with Yushu Xiangcao.

The weather is still a bit hot.

After almost finishing the move, Xiao Ran went back to the other side and took out some iced cokes from the refrigerator.

"It's a bit hot, drink something like this." Xiao Ran was also not used to it. He had air conditioning at home, but there was none in Datang.

Even in the evening when the sun sets, it is still very hot.

There isn't even an electric fan in the side hall. It's a little better when there's wind, but it's stuffy and hot when there's no wind.

"Thank you, young master!" Li Lizhi took the can without hesitation.

"Thank you, young master!" Princess Yuzhang also quickly took it.

When Xiao Ran handed the vanilla to Yu Shu, the two did not dare to take it, but looked at Li Lizhi.

If Li Lizhi didn't nod, the two palace maids would definitely not dare to take it.

"Just take what the young master gave you." Li Lizhi was not a mean person.

"Yes, thank you, young master!" Vanilla Yushu took the can, which she had just taken out of the refrigerator. It felt icy cool in her hand.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang looked at it, but didn't know how to open it.

"How do I open this, young master?" Li Lizhi took a look and really didn't know how to open it.

Xiao Ran put down his can and took Li Lizhi's can. "Just pull this one here. Once opened, you have to finish it. It's different from the bottle."

Xiao Ran opened it and handed it to Li Lizhi.

"It tastes good!" Li Lizhi took a sip. The iced cola was refreshing in this weather.

Princess Yuzhang saw what Xiao Ran did and opened it herself.

I've drunk it before, so I gradually got used to it and don't have much objection to it.

Plus it’s iced, which I actually like.

Yushu and Xiangcao looked at each other and decided to open a can and drink it together, and they would worry about the rest later.

"Hiccup~"

Li Lizhi suddenly burped.

The side hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Li Lizhi froze instantly, her fingertips trembling slightly as she gripped the can, her ears so red they were almost bleeding.

As the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she usually has a dignified and elegant image, but she actually burped in front of Xiao Ran.

This was unacceptable to Li Lizhi, and she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

"Burp!" Xiao Ran obviously didn't want to burp, but he burped on purpose to ease the awkward atmosphere of Li Lizhi.

"Coke is a carbonated drink. It's normal to burp after drinking Coke," Xiao Ran explained with a smile.

"Burp!" Princess Yuzhang also burped. "This Coke is interesting. Really fun."

Li Lizhi could tell that Xiao Ran was trying to relieve her stress.

"Almost done, Changle, arrange for someone to deliver these meals first!" Xiao Ran pointed, "I don't know if it's enough."

"It's enough. There aren't many people here." Li Lizhi asked Yushu and Xiangcao to ask someone to bring the food prepared by Xiao Ran.

In fact, there were only Li Yuan, Zhang Jieyu, Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li Zhi.

So the food Xiao Ran prepared was enough.

This is a family dinner, so we won’t be going to any other palaces, so we can just hold it in Lizheng Hall.

Princess Yuzhang appeared in the front hall with an iced cola and palace maids carrying food.

The dishes were placed on the table.

During this period, separate meals were more common, but considering the family dinner and Xiao Ran's situation, there was no separate meal.

Seeing the strange-shaped tableware, Li Yuan and Zhang Jieyu were stunned for a moment.

These are all things I have never seen before.

Empress Changsun and Li Shimin knew that these were prepared by Xiao Ran, and they watched with curiosity.

"So many?" Li Shimin asked. "Grandpa, there are still many! I feel like there is not enough space. I need to add a desk."

Hongxiutianxiang hurried to prepare.

Princess Yuzhang turned around and handed the half-drunk iced cola to the little princess.

The little princess was delighted when she took the can, "Wow~ brewing~"

The two little princesses started drinking, and the little princess did not forget her old mother.

However, Empress Changsun did not drink it and asked the little princess to give it to Li Yuan.

"Aong~Nihe~"

Li Shimin saw a can for the first time and asked, "What's this, Liu Niang?"

"Grandpa, this is Coke. It's the same as the previous one, but it's iced and more refreshing."

After hearing Princess Yuzhang's explanation, Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and said, "Grandpa, this is a very special drink. You might not be used to it at first."

"It's so sweet~" the little princess handed it to Li Yuan.

"Hahaha, okay, okay, try it, Aung." Li Yuan took a sip and frowned. "It's really strange, it feels like there's something in my mouth."

Li Yuan looked at the can, wondering if there was anything inside.

"Aunt, there's nothing inside. I feel like there's something there because of the bubbles."

Li Yuan took a bite and handed it to the little princess, who asked Li Zhi to try it too.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai were older and didn't feel comfortable drinking.

Many dishes were served one after another.

As night fell, many candles were lit inside the Lizheng Hall.

As a modern person, Xiao Ran is very uncomfortable with this.

It's really too dark.

So I ran back to the supermarket and got several desk lamps.

Although the desk lamp is not as bright as the normal lighting.

But it's better than candles.

"Changle, take this to the front hall and open it so it will be brighter." Xiao Ran told Li Lizhi how to use it.

"Okay, thank you, young master. I'll have to trouble you with these things."

"It's no trouble, no trouble. It's no big deal. I'll just change my clothes and be right there." He got his clothes dirty while moving things just now.

"Okay!" Li Lizhi returned to the front hall with a desk lamp and saw the whole family talking and laughing in the front hall.

"Girl, Xiao Ran hasn't come yet?" Li Shimin was a little expectant.

"Grandpa, the young master will be here soon." Li Lizhi turned on the desk lamps and placed them around the front hall.

The bright desk lamp immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Except for the two little princesses and Li Lizhi, no one had ever seen an electric light. It was hard not to be curious about such a bright thing.

In comparison, the night pearl pales in comparison.

"What is this? Why is it so bright?" Li Yuan asked.

Empress Changsun and Li Shimin didn't know either.

"Uncle, this is a desk lamp. I don't know about the others, but they are used for lighting." Li Lizhi placed the last desk lamp in the center of the desk.

All the candles around can be removed.

"Wow~ So bright~"

"Hee hee~"

"Sixth sister, prepare the meal. I will go to pick up the young master." Li Lizhi looked at Princess Yuzhang.

"Okay, sister, I understand."

When the little princess heard that they were going to pick up Xiao Ran, she quickly got up and followed them.

Empress Zhangsun pulled the little princess aside and said, "Sizi, you don't have to go. The young master will be here soon."

Princess Yuzhang and several palace maids opened the lid, and the aroma of food filled the air.
