Chapter 471: Birthday Present

Clouded leopards are endangered protected animals! There are three of them here at once, and they must be brought to modern times!

Ever since she discovered the conditions for upgrading the space-time gate, Lin Wanwan has been paying close attention to rare animals, so she recognized the clouded leopard at a glance.

Lin Wanwan immediately made a decision in her mind to bring them to modern times. Although Xiao Qingyu might be reluctant to part with them, the little guy's animal army was already quite spectacular, so there was no need to add clouded leopards.

Besides, clouded leopards are ferocious beasts after all, more ferocious than lynxes. Lin Wanwan didn't dare to let Xiao Qingyu raise her. What should she do if a leopard breaks out and hurts someone?

When Lonely Di heard what Xiao Chong said, the corner of his mouth raised slightly.

What kind of leisure time? The autumn harvest has recently ended, and the county government has to start tax registration and draft labor regulations. Xiao Chong is simply too busy to touch the ground. He goes to bed later than a dog, works more than a cow, and wakes up earlier than a chicken.

.

It was in order to prepare a birthday gift for Lin Wanwan that I took time out of my busy schedule to go hunting in autumn.

But now Xiao Chong said it as if he just did it casually. After the accident, Dugu Di couldn't help feeling slightly sad.

He probably understood what Xiao Chong meant. There was a huge gap in status between the two of them, so it might be best if they had a tacit agreement to interact as cousins.

If you go further rashly, you may end up doing bad things and haste makes waste.

Xiao Chong would definitely not mention it to his family before he was confident enough.

Alas! Poor cousin, no matter how noble his status is, he still has no control over certain things.

Dugu Di couldn't help but think of himself again, and his face became even colder.

He and Xiao Chonghui both left Chang'an, weren't they all for freedom?

When Xiao Chong arrived, the guests were all gathered, and Lin Wanwan led everyone to the side hall where the food was laid out.

Compared with other dynasties, the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was naturally much more open. Families with many rules would separate men's and women's halls, but there were also enlightened families who only had separate banquets, not halls.

Naturally, Lin Wanwan's family didn't have that many rules, and the banquet was all held in the side hall.

There are several large dining tables in the hall. Today's banquet is a banquet system where people sit at the same table but do not eat together.

The chef is Huanong, and there are several cooks working for her.

At the banquet, there were quite a few young ladies who were interested in Xiao Chong. After all, regardless of family background and only looking at appearance, Xiao Chong was someone who could sweep the crowd!

Regardless of whether there is hope or not, it is a pleasure in life to have a few drinks with a person like Xiao Chong.

If you are not frivolous when you are young, your life in this world will be wasted.

It's rare to have a banquet without elders present. Young people who are no more than ten years old are not allowed to have fun! Drinking orders and guessing flowers are trivial. Singing and dancing are even more necessary!

The silk and bamboo orchestral music came together, and everyone did not hide it. They played openly and enjoyed it with everyone.

Even the two emperors Li Shimin and Li Yuan in the capital, as well as the Supreme Emperor, could play the pipa and dance at the banquet. What else could the common people not let go of!

Different from the habit of self-admiration in later generations, people in the Tang Dynasty were still very willing to have fun and communicate.

In this kind of situation, Xiao Chong and Dugu Di, who are highly talented and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, naturally stand out. Even if they don't want to show off, their talents are like standing out from the crowd, and they can't hide them.

An ensemble of piano and flute made everyone intoxicated. How many times in the world can one hear such fairy music.

Everyone couldn't help but secretly sigh in their hearts. After all, he was a direct descendant of the Lanling Xiao family and the Dugu family. He had a great reputation and was a worthy scholar, far beyond the comparison of the others present today!

Of course, this is also thanks to Lin Wanwan's low profile today.

It was only when she didn't copy poems that Xiao Chong and Dugu Di stood out.

If Lin Wanwan copied poetry, haha, she is not boasting, she has hundreds of Tang poetry and Song lyrics in her belly, and the poetry sage Su Xian protects her body, everyone here will be vulnerable!

Lin Wanwan had a very happy birthday!

At a banquet without mobile phones, everyone's communication is more sincere. The elegant things of reciting poems and playing poems and playing the piano are also endlessly memorable.

Choosing to celebrate this birthday in Datang couldn't be more wise.

Today, Lin Wanwan is very satisfied and happy. Sitting among a group of top-notch people, she feels like she has been nurtured to become more elegant.

The souls poisoned by exam-oriented education have become alive.

Even if she couldn't write a famous line, she had learned a lot of poetry-writing skills after spending a long time with this group of people who loved to compose poetry, so it wouldn't be a problem for her to cope with a drinking party.

Xiao Chong was quite surprised. Recently, Lin Wanwan's poetry writing skills had plummeted. What she said in the past was all written by her master, which seems to be true.

When the banquet was over, the guests took their leave one after another.

Sister-in-law Yuan came here with a mission. After the banquet, she was naturally anxious to return to her home in Qiantang to recover. So this time, even Xiao Xianghua did not stay long.

Today, Sister-in-law Yuan and Ms. Zhang, the daughter-in-law of Wang's family, exchanged their opinions, and both parties have a tacit understanding that they should go back and inform their elders at home.

In the evening, Xiao Chong and Dugu Di still came to have a meal - as long as Lin Wanwan was in Xiaoxi Town, Xiao Chong, a big foodie, would never miss the opportunity to have a meal.

After all, Huanong learned the cooking skills from the modern recipes provided by Lin Wanwan, and after painstaking research, it became unique in the Tang Dynasty. It is very attractive to foodies.

However, Xiao Chong had already given three rare pet clouded leopards as gifts during the day, but at night, he also prepared a small gift box for Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan took it over curiously, opened it and saw that it was a pair of unique gold wire hollow-covered pearl earrings.

"Are these... made of those two oyster pearls?" Lin Wanwan tilted her head and asked Xiao Chong.

Xiao Chong smiled calmly: "Well, it's exactly that. I saw that my cousin liked it, so I worked hard with the goldsmith to make it. Is my cousin satisfied?"

Lin Wanwan's heart moved slightly. She didn't know how to describe her current feeling. She smiled after a while and said, "Thank you, cousin. I like it very much."

Xiao Chong smiled casually, as if he didn't care at all.

Lin Wanwan glanced at Xiao Chong secretly, but there was no deep meaning in his perfect profile.

After Xiao Chong and Dugu Di left and Xiao Qingyu fell asleep, Lin Wanwan sat at the dressing table, opened the jewelry box again under the candlelight, and stared at the pair of gold-filled pearl earrings in a daze.

"What does this guy Xiao Chong mean? Does he have interest in me?" Lin Wanwan frowned, "No, no, although this kind of oyster pearl is rare, it is nothing to him, a rich man from the Xiao family in Lanling. It is not a gift.

It’s not special for me to be a birthday present!”

She closed the box, stuffed it at the bottom of the jewelry box, and didn't think about it anymore.

She picked up the gift list recorded by Hengwu today and looked at it carefully. The gifts on these gift lists were all gifts she would return in the future.

There were too few literate servants in the family. Although she taught the children, they were too young to be useful, so there was only one Yunshang.

But on an occasion like today, Yun Shang had a lot to do. Just sending her to register the gift list would be overkill, so Lin Wanwan urgently brought Heng Wu over from Linjiazhuang to help.

Heng Wu usually doesn't come to Xiaoxi Town because she is the teacher of the school. Lin Wanwan doesn't regard her as a happy girl, so naturally she doesn't need to wait on her.
