Chapter 243: West Market Interesting Talk

"Oh?" Xue Pan was noncommittal, looking at Xiao Han up and down with a pair of big eyes, as if carefully distinguishing whether what he said was true or false!

Xiao Han felt a little guilty when Xue Pan looked at her. Even if he was really innocent, he still had a selfish motive for keeping the beautiful woman in his own home!

Now that his real girlfriend found out and asked him face to face, Xiao Han didn't know how to explain it, so he could only pretend to lower his head and drink water, and half of the bottle of water was gone in the blink of an eye.

Hey, why did I forget that this is the Tang Dynasty, not the Ming Dynasty!

The status of women at this time is extremely high! If a woman is not satisfied with her marriage, she can divorce her husband and remarry.

And for those who have no choice but to become a widow, the officials will help find a good family to marry. How can there be a perverted rule where one person is widowed and the whole family is honored!

Therefore, from the perspective of Chinese history, the Tang Dynasty was undoubtedly the most comfortable period for women to live!

Because I lived in the Tang Dynasty, I felt very clearly that Zhang Qiang’s eldest wife could order Zhang Qiang around at home! Uncle Lunzi was a tough guy, but Auntie Lunzi was still eating him to death!

And think about people like Chai Shao, Xue Shou, Fang Xuanling, they all only have one wife! You don’t think that they really can’t afford to marry, or don’t want to marry another one, right?

Thinking wildly in his mind, Xiao Han couldn't do anything about Xue Pan's cross-examination. Even if she hadn't met her yet, among the people around her, who didn't already regard her as the head wife? They all blame Liu Hongji, you deserve to be blown away.

Cold wind, why don't you freeze to death!

Xiao Han drooped his head and said nothing, but the jealousy in Xue Panmei's eyes slowly receded and was replaced by a somewhat proud look.

She has an eye on Xiao Han. She even knows better than Xiao Han what is going on in Xiao Han's family! I mentioned this specifically today just to see if Xiao Han dared to talk nonsense. Looking at it now, it's not bad, at least this

There is still some loyalty.

Neither of them spoke first, and the room was so quiet for a moment that you could hear a pin drop. In this weird atmosphere, the waiter finally arrived to serve the food!

Looking at the young waiter pushing in the door, Xiao Han felt like crying with joy! He breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly sent Xue Pan back to his seat.

"I'm hungry, I'm hungry. Let's eat first. After eating, I'll say, oh, I've been running all morning today, and my legs are almost broken!"

"Hmph, it must have been a horse's leg that was broken by running away. How can you break a leg by running away?" Xue Pan reluctantly sat in front of his own beach and frowned at Xiao Han.

Xiao Han pretended to be dumbfounded: "Hey, don't I come down here too...Okay, okay, look at this fish soup, how clear it is, just like water~"

Don't reason with women, because they don't reason at all!

Xiao Han, who was well aware of this, quickly changed the subject as soon as he explained it. Seeing what Xue Pan had to say, he had an idea and took a big sip from the heavy soup bowl in front of him. This thing could block his entire head.

, she can no longer see her red face!

The soup bowl is a bit heavy. Holding it is like holding a large stone, and the soup will spill out unconsciously!

Sometimes I really can’t understand the ancients. They obviously had spoon-shaped senna hundreds of years ago, and even ladles specially used for scooping water, but why couldn’t they remember to make a smaller spoon! Now I want to drink some soup.

You have to hold the soup bowl to fill it, and you may choke if you are not careful...

After a big mouthful of soup, um, it quenches my thirst, not bad... Huh? No, why does it have no taste?

Thinking that his tongue was malfunctioning, Xiao Han picked up the bowl and took a big sip. Now he was sure that it was indeed tasteless!

Where is the fish soup? It's just adding some salt to the fish bath water! Don't you know how to fry the fish first and then make the soup?

He smacked his lips and quickly picked a few more bites of other dishes. After tasting them, Xiao Han's heart dropped!

Is this a high-end place in Datang? Then the people who come here are miserable...

Looking at this first-class environment and first-class service, who would have thought that it is served by a subpar chef! It is simply a waste of such good ingredients!

The roasted mutton is not even as good as the ones roasted in the army! The only thing that stands out is that there are enough spices! It's so full! There is half a catty of spices sprinkled on a piece of meat as big as a palm. Xiao Han really doesn't know how big it is in his mouth.

What chewing spices should taste like.

After finally scraping off all the spices, I frowned and took a bite, feeling that my mouth was numb and astringent after one bite. Without the addition of chili, it would be much more unpalatable!

The whole meal was extremely depressing. The only thing that was somewhat gratifying was that Xue Pan followed the good habit of not talking during eating or sleeping, and let go of the idea of ​​continuing to question Xiao Han.

Compared to the rude Xiao Han, Xue Pan is still very polite in his appearance, slow and polite, showing everyone's demeanor!

She doesn't have as many problems as Xiao Han, and she won't eat anything but delicious food! Although it is true that the food here is not as delicious as the food at Xiao Han's house, but compared with the chef at home, it is indeed much better.

After a cup of tea, the middle-aged scholar appeared in the room again and asked Xiao Han respectfully if he was still satisfied. His humble look was like a certain treasure in later generations begging for a five-star review from a customer.

It's just that you really don't know how well your cook cooks? Didn't you see that nothing on my table was touched?

The person's waist was bent almost ninety degrees. Xiao Han didn't say any negative comments after all. He could only nod his head against his will to show his satisfaction. In this way, everyone was happy! After receiving Xiao Han's two thousand dollars, Xiao Han felt

His heart is bleeding. It's not that he doesn't want to give up money, it's just that the money is spent. What a shame!

After being sent to the door respectfully, Xiaodong and the others picked their teeth and swayed as they followed the carriage. During this meal, Xiao Han looked sad while eating, but they all looked happy, just like the first time in their previous lives.

Just like Xiao Han who entered a five-star hotel, what he ate was not the taste of the food at all! It was the honor.

After leaving Shuiyuexuan, Xue Pan and Xiao Ai originally wanted to say goodbye and go home, but when they learned that Xiao Han was going to the West Market for shopping, the master and servant became energetic again! How could such an interesting thing as shopping be missed for them?

So you must come along!

But the sky is a warning! Where in a place like the West Market is a place like this for a wealthy lady?

They should take a stroll in Dongshi and discuss whether Li Ji's pearl necklace is more beautiful or Liu Ji's gilt flying phoenix hairpin! Instead of fighting over a penny with a lotus leaf vendor here!

Xue Pan didn't care, Xiao Han didn't stop him, but as for Xiaodong and Lengzi...

If anyone has an opinion, they will definitely be willing to listen carefully. As for whether to listen with their fists or with a horizontal knife, it depends on their mood...

So, today in the West Market, after the last time when the stupid prince ran to show off to the court, a new wave of jokes has ushered in...

There was a pork seller on the street in the West Market. The man who butchered the pigs was shouting and selling meat. Unfortunately, there were only a group of people watching eagerly in front of the stall, but no one came to buy.

One pound of pork costs about ten pieces, which is enough for the whole family to eat for several days if converted into grain! Eating meat? It’s too luxurious...

So no matter how loud the men shout, not many people are willing to spend the money to eat meat.

From morning to now, a pig has been sold for less than five pieces, and one piece can only be sold for three to two or five taels. That’s it, you have to pick it up! Find a fat piece and cut it off, and use it carefully.

Wrap the leaves, put them in the basket, and walk away in the envious eyes of the people around you.

Thinking of his son's salivating look when he was killing the pig in the morning, the man shook his head helplessly. He originally thought that the Chinese New Year was coming soon and business would be better, so he sold the pork and left some scraps to cook for his son.

But unexpectedly, after the busiest morning, one pig only moved a little bit. It seems that this pig will not be sold out tomorrow. Fortunately, it is winter. If it is left in summer, the meat will smell bad!

"Come here to sell meat. We just killed new meat this morning! Sell it cheaply!" He yelled listlessly. Just as he was thinking about how to sell all the meat, there was suddenly some commotion in front of him.

The man raised his head and saw a young man and woman standing in front of him, curiously looking at the pig's head hanging on the iron hook.

The man was a little dazed. This is the West Market. Most of the people who come here are from the middle and lower classes of Chang'an. But these two people in front of them look like they are not ordinary people! They are men, but this woman looks and dresses like a fairy.

, the man bets that he has never seen such a beautiful woman in his life!

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you looking at!" Xiaodong's eyes widened when he saw the meat seller, and he immediately felt unhappy. He knocked on the meat seller's chopping board and yelled loudly! Is the Marquis's woman something that a peddler like you can desecrate? That look on his face.

Do you want the double move?

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was just dazzled..." Xiaodong shouted at the man selling the meat, and then he saw the guards surrounding the two of them, all of them with fierce looks! They didn't look like good guys.

, was startled, and quickly lowered his head to play with the meat on the chopping board.
