I am a thief in the Tang Dynasty

"The third son of the Fang family is proficient in both civil and military tactics. He is truly a genius of the time!"

Dai Zhou and Zhao Yang both nodded in agreement.

The next moment, Dai Zhou's face darkened, and he quickly lowered the curtain and said unhappily:

“Humph, Sanlang of the Fang family has talent, but Wanwan, you said he is a genius of the time, then that’s too much!”

Dai Wanwan and Zhao Yang were both stunned.

Unexpectedly, Dai Zhou, who had just praised Fang Jia Sanlang with words, suddenly became unhappy.

Zhao Yang's eyes moved between the father and daughter, he saw some clues, and he was immediately happy.

He suppressed his laughter, sat upright, and looked like he had heard nothing.

Dai Wanwan was about to retort, but was stared at by Dai Zhou. She covered her mouth, sat there sulking.

In Fang family’s No. 1 manor, that quiet and elegant manor.

After the incident between Chai Xueying and Du Guiru in the carriage, their relationship progressed rapidly again, and they had a subtle relationship like close friends.

After seeing a doctor, he prescribed some prescriptions to drive away the cold.

Chai Xueying was concerned about Fang Yiyi of Zhuangzi, so she bought some cakes and pastries for Du Guiru and her to fill their stomachs.

He invited Du Guiru to the farm to eat the delicious and warming copper pot hot pot.

After all, a family dinner is the highest standard of banquet.

Moreover, the copper pot hot pot is unique to Fang’s restaurant and cannot be found anywhere else.

In this way, Chai Xueying felt that she could make up for some of her guilt towards Du Guiru.

at this time.

In the main hall.

A large copper pot was placed in the middle of the eight-immortal table that Fang Yiyi specially asked Carpenter Sun to build.

Du Guiru sat on the armchair, feeling this tall chair that was different from the low couch and the Hu chair, and felt comfortable and interesting. She said:

"This chair is comfortable to sit on, much more comfortable than a couch or a Hu chair!"

"Since Guiru likes it, I will have someone make another set and send it to Cheng's house someday."

Chai Xueying spoke openly.

Du Guiru's eyes dimmed a little, and she glanced at Fang Yiyi inadvertently, and said to Chai Xueying:

"Please ask my sister to make an extra set and send it to the Du Mansion as well."

"I didn't think it through. It's only right!" Chai Xueying smiled with shame and continued, "Husband, this is Guiru's first time eating this copper pot hot pot. Please help her choose the dipping sauce!"

Chapter 422 Fang Yiyi: Guiru, eat slowly, no one is competing with you

The candlelight flickers.

Fang Yiyi looked at Du Guiru's oval face.

Looking at the fatigue on her delicate and gentle face.

There was a look of heartache deep in his eyes.

He did not refuse, but stood up and walked to Du Guiru and said:

"Today, Second Lady of the Du Family and my wife braved the heavy rain to resettle the refugees. They really worked hard."

"You need to eat something good to replenish your body's vitality."

"I wonder if Second Lady Du's taste is salty or not?"

Du Guiru sighed in her heart.

How could her lover not know the taste of her?

But since the lady was here, I could only pretend to be unfamiliar with her.

Dignified and decent, with a little distance:

"Thank you, Mr. Fang. I hope the dipping sauce is lighter."

Fang Yiyi didn't say anything more, and quickly prepared the dipping sauce and said:

"How about you try it? If it doesn't suit your taste, you can adjust it again."

Yu Zhuo ordered the dipping sauce, opened and closed her cherry lips, and put the chopsticks into her mouth.

Fang Yiyi stared at those cherry lips and was stunned for a moment.

"Not bad, thank you, Sanlang Fang!"

Du Guiru responded coldly, bringing Fang Yiyi back to his senses. He nodded and said, "It's OK!"

After saying that, Fang Yiyi sat back in his seat.

Chai Xueying, who was watching as she cut the fresh mutton, noticed that the two men were behaving politely and were not overstepping the boundaries.

I don't know when the worry in my heart suddenly eased a lot.

What followed was that the guilt in my heart became even stronger.

The handsome man and beautiful woman who were highly regarded in Chang'an City were almost married, but she stole their love.

Now when the two meet, they are like familiar strangers, yet still a little strange.

The cooked mutton turns light gray, mixed with milky white mutton fat, and looks extremely tempting.

Du Guiru had been busy all day and was already hungry.

After seeing the doctor, I ate some cakes to fill my stomach, but it only aroused my cravings.

The hungry one is like a hungry woman with a heavy heart.

At this moment, the cooked lamb is coated with light brown and mixed with colorful seasonings, which looks very appetizing.

The aroma of the fresh meat, coupled with the rich flavor of the dipping sauce, made her unable to wait any longer to stuff the mutton into her cherry lips.

As soon as she took a bite, the aroma of mahjong and mutton filled her entire mouth, making her feel very happy.

The happiness of tasting the delicious food swept away the resentment in her heart.

Then, without the Fang couple's request to be humble, they started to eat with relish.

He ate with one chopstick after another, forgetting everything else and only thinking about filling his stomach.

The young couple couldn't help but smile as they watched Du Guiru maintain her demeanor while eating with relish in her cherry-like mouth.

Chai Xueying smiled and said, "Sister Guiru is really hungry today."

Fang Yiyi's eyes were filled with heartache. When had the daughter of Prime Minister Du, who had lived a life of luxury, ever suffered such hardship as she did today? When had she ever eaten with such big mouthfuls, without stopping, with one chopstick after another?

"Eat slowly, no one will snatch it from you."

Upon hearing this, Du Guiru paused with her chopsticks, swallowed the mutton in her mouth, and said with an inaudible smile:

"Don't eat yet, take care of me first, I'm starving today!"

Then, he continued to eat.

After two breaths.

Du Guiru raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said helplessly:

"Hey, I ate too fast and the sauce splashed into my eyes."

Without waiting for Chai Xueying to make any move.

Fang Yiyi handed over the handkerchief and said to Chai Xueying:

"Next time we invite guests, we have to remind them that if this sauce splashes into their eyes, it will be very uncomfortable!"

Chai Xueying nodded and said, "Indeed!"

Du Guiru, who took the handkerchief, felt the trembling of her lover's fingertips.

The tears in her eyes flowed more, and the corners of her mouth did lift.

hiccup~

In just a quarter of an hour, Du Guiru, who was full, burped contentedly.

Coupled with her cute look of squinting her eyes in happiness after eating, it is really hard to help but make people laugh.

Chapter 423 Dai Zhou: Nephew, uncle, please don’t mind me coming here uninvited.

Now that we are full, let’s raise our glasses and drink together!

Du Guiru burped and blushed with embarrassment. She raised the white jade wine cup and tried to change the subject.

At this time, Fang Liu walked in quickly, stood at the door, saluted and said:

"My lord, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Dai Zhou, and the eldest lady of the Dai family, Miss Wanwan, as well as the commander of Mingde Gate, General Zhao Yang, the General of the Right Guard, have arrived outside the manor."

"I said I'd drink with you and not leave until I'm drunk!"

The three people at the table looked at each other.

This was an uninvited visit, and it happened to be during dinner time.

It is indeed a bit rude.

The most important thing is that Dai Zhou, who is of such a high status, actually took the initiative to visit him, a junior.

Fang Yiyi had some guesses, but he would have to meet Dai Zhou to know his true intentions.

He stood up and said:

"Fang Liu, go prepare some food, I will go to greet you personally."

"Here!"

Chai Xueying also stood up and said, "Husband, I will go with you."

It was still raining heavily outside. Fang Yiyi was worried that Chai Xueying would catch a cold, so he hurriedly said:

"No need. Guiru is also a guest tonight. You should stay here to accompany her. I can go by myself."

After he finished speaking, Fang Yiyi put on a straw raincoat, opened an umbrella, and rushed into the heavy rain.

The gate of the quiet courtyard.

Three people stood holding oil-paper umbrellas.

Dai Wanwan looked at the courtyard not far away where candlelight flickered, but its appearance could not be seen clearly in the heavy rain, her eyes full of excitement and anticipation.

Having personally experienced the rescue of disaster victims this time, she felt more and more that Fang Yiyi was a powerful person and had a kind heart that cared about the people.

Zhao Yang, a fourth-rank General of the Central Army, could hardly contain his excitement.

This time, he fulfilled his promise to His Majesty, made friends with Dai Zhou, got to know Fang Jia Sanlang, who was also the left prime minister of the dynasty, and also got to know the famous Tang Valkyrie in the army.

He can't escape the title of a third-rank military general. If he makes friends with a group of big men, he might even become a third-rank military general with military power.

He would wake up laughing even in his dreams, how could he not be excited!

Tread!

As a military commander, Zhao Yang was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and he immediately said respectfully:

"Master Dai, someone is coming!"

Dai Zhou nodded and walked forward.

Dai Wanwan and Zhao Yang hurried to catch up.

"My nephew greets Uncle Dai! I hope you can forgive me for not being able to come and greet you!"

Dai Zhou came uninvited, which meant he was visiting in a private capacity.

Fang Yiyi bowed obediently and addressed himself as a junior.

Dai Zhou smiled with satisfaction: "Uncle, I came here uninvited, please don't mind, nephew!"

"Uncle, it's a great honor for you to come. How could I mind?" Fang Yiyi made way and said with a smile:
