Chapter 63 The ancient meaning of Chang'an

Yun Chu excitedly took Naha into the monastery that looked like a hotel.

After a cup of tea, the brother and sister left the monastery with unlucky looks. People said that they had never seen an official as young as Yun Chu staying in such a high-end guest house when he came to Chang'an.

He also enthusiastically showed the Yunchu brothers and sisters the way to the big car shop. The waiter's attitude was impeccable, which made Yunchu want to take out the baseball bat from his horse bag and hit the waiter's smiling face with a stick.

Yun Chu was just thinking about it, but Naha had already taken out her small baseball bat and hit the boy hard on the calf bone.

Seeing that the waiter was about to fall to the ground and start howling, Yun Chu stepped forward and removed the waiter's chin, and thoughtfully leaned him on a long bench. Before the other people in the guest house could react, the brother and sister

The two of them and a lynx who pretended to be a fox and a tiger ran away.

The carriage was walking on Zhuque Street, which was fully sixteen lanes wide. At this time, Yunchu and Naha were both full of complaints.

However, they refused to accept any guest houses that Yun Chu could like, but Yun Chu did not like any guest houses that allowed Yun Chu and his siblings to stay.

This made Yunchu feel even more lonely.

A guest dragging two thousand taels of gold in a carriage could not find a suitable place to rest in the huge city of Chang'an.

Yun Chu also discovered that most of the guest houses that refused to allow his brothers and sisters to stay were on the north side of Zhuque Street, while most of the guest houses that welcomed them were on the south side of Zhuque Street.

Most of the houses in the north are blue brick houses, tall and majestic, while most of the houses in the south are adobe houses, low and dilapidated.

It's not that there are no luxurious guest houses. Yaju welcomes a handsome young man with a black face like Yun Chu to stay. However, when Yun Chu took a look at the shy and timid group of beauties upstairs standing in front of the window and waving to him, Yun Chu understood.

, he accidentally led Naha into Pingkangfang, a gold-selling cave for men of the Tang Dynasty.

Looking back at Naha's envious look, Yunchu slapped Naha on the head, lowered his head and drove the carriage away from this terrible place quickly. Those beauties greeted him in Chang'an dialect.

The voice of the teacher remained in his mind for a long time.

After leaving Pingkangfang, Naha saw that no one was paying attention to their brother and sister, so she growled in a low voice: "I just looked at that guest house and it was very clean. The clothes on those women were not only clean but also beautiful. Why didn't you take me in?"

?”

Yunchu glanced at Naha and said, "If you dare to go to this place in the future, I will definitely break your legs."

Naha looked at Yunchu aggrievedly and said, "Isn't that a good place?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "It's not good, especially for girls. It's the worst place."

As he was speaking, Yun Chu swung the long whip back in his hand, and the riding whip he had knitted with his own hands struck something with a crackling sound, making a "pop" sound. Then, a man hugged him.

He fell to the ground with his head down and howled desperately.

Yun Chu did not stop the carriage and continued to move forward. The man just now was just a thief who was very interested in the contents of his carriage.

Yun Chu struck hard, and playing with whips was his life and job in the Western Regions. Therefore, with this whip, Yun Chu believed that the bridge of the little thief's nose should be broken.

One thing about the people of Chang'an is that they like to watch the excitement but don't want to meddle in other people's business. The little thief who was whipped by Yun Chu had already fainted from the pain. Everyone pointed at them, but no one enthusiastically reported them to the official or stopped them.

carriage.

The carriage finally came out of the left door of the West Market. The brother and sister did not dine in the numerous restaurants in the West Market, nor did they drink in a tavern full of orchids.

Originally, Yunchu saw the Hu cake seller and saw the steaming Hu cakes being taken out of the stove by the Hu people. He originally wanted to buy a few to satisfy his hunger, but he saw the black sludge between the Hu people's nails and the piles of them.

The linen used to make the biscuits was even shabbier than the linen Naha used to bathe Big Fat. Both Yun Chu and Naha took the initiative to give up the hot and fragrant sesame biscuits.

Before they even entered the store where they bought mutton soup, the brother and sister were overcome by the overwhelming smell and ran away.

The seller of haggis piled up the haggis in a mountainous pile, but Yun Chu saw a grain of sheep dung floating leisurely in the soup.

Yun Chu believed that he was not mistaken. After all, he had followed Selema to herd sheep not long after he was born. He was very familiar with the appearance of this thing being moist, dry, boiled, and sun-dried.

Yunchu was not even interested in taking a look at the fat and thin pig meat. After all, the staple food of pigs was really shit.

A beautiful Tang Dynasty woman hung her sleeves on the sleeve hook, revealing two white arms. She was using an extremely sharp knife to cut a river fish into thin slices like cicada wings in an instant. These snow-white fish meat were

When placed on the plate, the remaining fish head seemed to be still alive, with its mouth opening and closing and its gills opening and closing.

Yun Chu knew that this was called flying knife fish clams, and it was a kind of food eaten with spicy mustard and sauce. The woman looked very clean, and the dishes were beautifully arranged. The customers sitting in the shop also looked polite and polite.

However, Yunchu would rather eat marmots cooked at high temperatures than take Naha to eat the knife fish meat that can easily make people suffer from potbelly disease.

There are really many yellow rice steamer cakes in Chang'an City. After seeing the people selling yellow rice steamer cakes, the brother and sister immediately lost their appetite. To be honest, none of the people selling rice steamer cakes here can compare with the ones sold at Yumen Pass.

The clerk who makes rice cakes can be compared to him.

No wonder people say that they use Cheng's yellow rice, Li's jujubes, and Yuchi's glutinous rice. This is truly genuine and good stuff.

All the dim sum sold on the street looked dry and unappetizing, especially since people in Chang'an also liked to put a little dark osmanthus sauce on their dim sum, which made the Yunchu brothers and sisters even more suspicious of eating these things.

Will it cause diarrhea?

Winter has come, and there are a lot of people selling persimmons in Chang'an City. The persimmons are very good. They have been beaten by frost, and the powdered sugar slowly seeps out and forms a layer of icing sugar on the surface of the persimmons.

The brother and sister only dare to sell two for eating. If you eat too many persimmons on an empty stomach, your stomach will hurt.

The waiter at the banquet hall saw the Yunchu brother and sister rolling their eyes and refusing to entertain them.

When the Tongxin Pavilion clerk saw the Yun Chu brothers and sisters, they actively invited them to the Warm Heart House they opened next door where they could sit on the street and eat.

Before the brother and sister's carriage came to a complete stop, the man from Guqintai asked them to get out. If they didn't, he would pull out his Tang Dao and kill their draft horses...

Yun Chu didn't stop when he passed by Chrysanthemum Terrace, and he didn't stop when he passed by Wangqing River. So when he passed by Meixiang Tower again, Naha filled his mouth with a mouthful of butter fried noodles fried by his brother, and was fucked.

I choked on the fried noodles. I stretched my neck and drank half a bottle of water in one breath to avoid choking to death.

Yunchu was very pleased that he had finally developed Naha's hygiene habit.

Come to think of it, even in the Western Regions, the sheepskin of the marmots eaten by the Yunchu family could not get a speck of dust on them. No matter how hungry Naha was, she had to wash her hands before eating. This child had known it for a long time.

Even in Chang'an, there are very few places that meet Yunchu and Naha's hygiene habits.

Perhaps there are many luxurious restaurants and luxurious restaurants in the north of Zhuque Street that meet Yunchu's hygiene habits, but that place does not belong to them.

Naha began to miss the man selling gourd chicken that she met at the city gate. Unfortunately, the brother and sister walked all the way and never met that tidy little vendor again.

When people make choices, they always think that the one behind them will be better. Now that I think about it, the guy who had his calf bone knocked out by Naha and whose chin was removed by Yunchu is still a pretty good guy compared to the guys behind him.

people.

Thinking of that poor guy, both Yunchu and Naha felt a little guilty.

After wandering around Chang'an City hungry all day, they could hear the drums of Chengtian Gate ringing. If they didn't find a place to stay, their brother and sister would be charged with violating the curfew by the bad guys in the city, and the Jinwu Guards would be swayed.

Caught and beaten twenty big boards.

When Yunchu drove his carriage into the gate of Jinchangfang, three hundred street drums had already sounded more than two hundred times.

The head of Jinchangfang was looking at them with an indescribable look, as if he were looking at two thieves.

After returning to Yun's mansion, the brother and sister breathed a sigh of relief. They decided that they would rather set up a tent in their own yard tonight than leave this gate.

The Yun family's mansion was overcrowded. Yun Chu didn't understand where Cui family got so many men and women to help their family clean up the house.

Mrs. Cui was sitting on the steps of the second entrance hall, eating Hu cakes with cold water. When she saw Lang Jun and the young lady coming back, she was surprised to greet them.

"Mr. Sir, why haven't you entered the inn to rest yet?"

Yun Chu spread his hands and said: "We are not allowed to enter the houses we like, but we are welcome to the houses we don't want to go in.

Madam Cui, since you have lived in Chang'an for a long time, can you tell me why?"

Lady Cui took a deep look at Yun Chu and said, "In Chang'an, you either have to become a master, or you have to accept your fate. There is no middle way for you to choose."

Yunchu sighed and said, "If you don't come to Chang'an, you won't know that your official position is small. If you don't come to Chang'an, you won't know that your family has little money."

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "This is exactly what I believe. With your great talent, your husband will be able to achieve great success in the near future."

Yun Chu nodded and said: "You are right about this, I think so too.

We will set up a tent at home to sleep tonight, but fortunately we did not throw away the camping stuff, otherwise, tonight would be very difficult.”

"I want to eat mutton noodles and go to bed after eating, otherwise I won't take a shower." Naha didn't want to swallow the butter fried noodles anymore.

Yunchu saw that the water from his own well was clear, and since Jinchangfang was on a high terrain, it should not be polluted by the domestic sewage produced by Chang'an people, so he decided to meet Naha's request and use the remaining water from his home.

Use the dried mutton to make her a meal of mutton noodles.
