Chapter 22: Knocking on CP

"When I was young, my family was poor and I was naughty. When my late mother was still alive, she beat me several times for stupid things I did."

When it comes to his ancestors, Lu Xiling doesn't dare to joke.

When the wind blew, Hu Erniang shivered and subconsciously moved closer to Yong Langjun.

Yonglangjun opened his cloak and wrapped the person into his arms.

Douya lowered his head to enjoy the dishes, while Lu Xiling hugged his shoulders and took a mouthful of dog food.

The nobles of this dynasty valued martial arts over literature, so there were many who carried guns and mounted horses, but few who danced and wrote. In addition, now that Di Bei's iron-blooded wolf king has taken over the throne, there is no room for scholars to use their talents.

Blessings to the Bi people were indispensable, but it was precisely because they were so close that Lu Xiling decided to say some unfaithful words.

Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Yonglangjun had the guts to support a boat. After hearing this, he was not angry but laughed and said: "My appearance is indeed that of a scholar."

What does this mean?

Could it be that wearing clothes makes you look slimmer, but taking off clothes makes you look fatter?

Lu Xiling didn't want to look too deeply, so he had to look at Hu Erniang.

Hu Erniang's cheeks turned red and she said coquettishly, "Look what I do."

Yonglangjun smiled even better and hugged the beauty in his arms tighter.

"I'm not good at writing books about sages, and it took me many years to become a scholar. However, I am good at managing the world."

He pointed at the tofu, with a hint of mischief in his warmth: "Is this egg white made by hand, girl?"

"It wasn't done by hand." Douya muttered and regained his energy, waving his trembling little hand to show the other side.

Lu Xiling ignored her and continued the conversation: "Could it be that Mr. Lang has some good ideas?"

Yonglang Jun said: "It's not really a solution, it's just a clumsy little plan from my childhood."

Being too modest is showing off!

Put away the bowls and chopsticks for now.

Yonglangjun became interested and called Hu Erniang to hand over a bamboo barrel and a wooden stick. He also found small items such as hemp rope and a knife from the warehouse.

Just listen to Mr. Yonglang pouring the bamboo knot into the boiling water and saying: "Actually, this thing is similar to the dancing drill. To make it, you have to remove the sugar first and then finish it. Finally, tie two chopsticks to the handle of the drill and it's ready.

"

Lu Xiling sat on the edge and watched in trance.

Good guy.

Simple version of egg beater?

Sure enough, the masters are among the people!

Yong Langjun threaded the needle and thread, while Hu Erniang sat next to him and handed out nails and ropes.

Although the interaction between the two does not have the ambiguity of "Hongxiu Tianxiang", it also has the warmth of slowly growing old with you.

Lu Xiling was proud that he got the equipment for nothing, and cast an envious look.

One was doing it, and the other two were doing it too. Yonglangjun simply made a pair.

Over time, the hemp ropes become severely worn, so if one is broken, you can replace it with another.

This time it was Yonglangjun's turn to tease the girls who had not left the court.

"I just don't know if anyone will be able to fix it for you if it breaks in the future."

Lu Xiling smiled and said: "I'm not good at acupuncture, but when it comes to 'eating', I can't be bothered."

Several people around the table laughed.

Lu Xiling took the wooden egg beater, his eyes shining with love.

"My husband taught me his craftsmanship, and I will repay him with delicious food."

Speaking of which, Lu Xiling plans to write down the recipe for "Fuyuan Tofu".

Yonglangjun raised his hand to stop him and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. The girl cured my stubborn illness, and I haven't had time to thank her yet. How can I accept such a small thing as a gift from her in return?"

Hu Erniang followed suit.

"It's really not necessary. I'm very clumsy. I can't do it even if you write it. I might as well come back to you if I want to eat it later to continue my gluttonous pleasure!"

Lu Xiling was amused by the two men singing and accompanying each other.

In order not to act like she was visiting relatives during the New Year, she decided not to refuse and went to the kitchen to bring out two more side dishes.

The moonlight was getting darker, and the few people were chatting more and more speculatively.

Douya couldn't bear to go back to the house to sleep, so she huddled on the chair and leaned on her chin.

Lu Xiling helped her put on her clothes and listened with great interest.

As the three adults exchanged glasses, Lu Xiling finally understood why Shen Jiedushi would accept Xian into the mansion.

"The wealthy gentry are getting richer and richer, and the common people are getting poorer and poorer. This is the curse left by the late emperor. If the emperor wants to sit firmly on the throne, this matter must be eliminated."

Yonglangjun raised his glass and said melancholy: "The uneven grain tax has existed in all dynasties. It is not a difficult matter. But now there is a talker in Shu who beats the drum every day without saying anything, and even leads the crowd to revolt."

"The Fourth Highness is still young and cannot bear the heavy responsibility. I heard that the uprising has been handed over to the Forbidden Army. If the matter can be settled, Master Shen has allowed me to assist him in managing the farmers and merchants."

Yonglangjun helped Hu Erniang stroke her temples.

"Second mother-in-law has worked hard for me for many years, and it's time to enjoy the blessings in the future."

The political topic was too sensitive, so Lu Xiling just listened and didn't ask any questions.

But she really got the candy.

——

In front of Xinchang Palace.

Bai Shuping stepped back and sighed playfully.

"Fengzhi's temperament is exactly the same as that of my mother. She won't eat if she doesn't want to eat."

He smiled and added: "Father, too. When Fengzhi said she wouldn't eat, he seriously refused to allow Shang Food Bureau to deliver food to her."

"At the cusp of the storm, it's the Shangsi festival again. As long as she behaves properly on the street, she won't suffer from hunger."

Bai Shu looked at his stern second brother, pursed his lips, and smiled helplessly.

Bai Ye, who was swinging his riding whip in front, snorted: "The people who live in Xinchang Palace really don't make people worry about it."

And he's also very brave.

Xinchang Palace is the closest palace to the Shangshi Bureau. Most people who choose this place as their bedroom do so to satisfy their appetites.

Red walls and green tiles cover the corridor head.

Standing here, Bai Ye couldn't help but think of the previous owner of the palace.

Needless to say, you are a glutton.

A person who obviously loves money so much did not even take away a single precious item when he left.

Even the golden nudity he deliberately placed in front of the dressing mirror was not missing.

As sensitive as Bai Shu, he immediately heard the hidden meaning of Bai Ye's words.

It was a rare heart-to-heart talk between the two brothers. Bai Shu was about to follow the lead and talk about something informal, but Bai Ye refused to give him a chance and returned to talking about political affairs.

"Remember to hand over the few thorns that Mr. Shen captured to the Forbidden Army later."

Bai Shu was stunned for a moment and then came to his senses.

"Second brother plans to kill the chicken to scare the monkey?"

Bai Ye raised the corners of his lips, the answer was self-evident.

"Second brother, can you take me and fourth brother to learn your skills?"

"Why should I bring it?"

Bai Shu laughed. He just wanted to watch the fun. There was no valid reason.

However, the fourth brother's shield is different.

"Awu is very stubborn in his work. My father intends to support him, but he only knows how to follow the steps, black and white. If this continues, he will not be able to deal with the old guys in the pavilion."

Bai Ye looked back.

Bai Shu quickly looked around and saw that the servants he had just sent were gone.

"Second brother is just going to show the younger brothers a lot of experience. I'll invite second brother to a restaurant later."

Talking about restaurants might not be tempting enough, so Baizhu dug into people's hearts: "How about going to the pastry shop in the south of the city? Vice General He said that the pastries at that shop taste very good."

Bai Shu smiled and said, "I heard that Wen Pushe's family also likes their pastries."

Bai Ye gets a headache when he mentions sexual affairs.

A headache makes life difficult for younger siblings.

"On the Buddha Bathing Festival, I have to go to Fa'en Temple to present the Buddha. If you want to learn a lesson, be careful in advance. I'm always focusing on eating and drinking to no avail. In two days, I will send you and Fengzhi to the temple for meditation and fasting."
