Without saying anything more, Zhang Yang was already used to Aunt Wang and Aunt Yang, these two weird neighbors.
Li Yue followed Zhang Yang's footsteps towards Zhuque Street and took the initiative to hold Zhang Yang's hand.
Li Yue's little hands felt a little cold, but her hands were beautiful, her fingers were slender, and it felt good to hold them in her hands.
Walking out of the quiet alley, your eyes suddenly opened up.
The bustling Zhuque Street is almost nightfall, and the whole Chang'an City looks brightly lit.
Pedestrians were constantly coming and going, there were many parents yelling at their children, and people talking and laughing.
A young couple walked into the crowd and quickly attracted the attention of many people.
The man wears a black robe and the woman wears a red coat.
The two little bears are embroidered on the back of their clothes, which is a very conspicuous couple outfit.
With a smile on her face, the woman held the man's hand, not caring about the looks around her.
The man cannot be said to be very handsome, but he gives off a very clean feeling.
The woman's smile is very pleasant.
The man held the woman's hand and deliberately slowed down to let the girl next to him keep up.
Pedestrians looked at the young couple and pointed.
"It's so lively." Li Yue looked around.
"It's really lively. Be careful not to get lost." Zhang Yang said calmly.
Li Yue took Zhang Yang's arm and said, "I'm not a child anymore."
In a place with such a large flow of people, the probability of getting lost is actually quite high.
The men on the road were also a little surprised when they saw Li Yue, what a beautiful girl.
But when they saw her holding the man's arm, the men who were watching could only shake their heads and sigh, and left in disappointment.
Li Yue is indeed very beautiful, especially the way she smiles.
While walking and walking, Li Yue would stop and take a closer look at anything new she saw, and she bought some pastries and ate them.
"You eat too." Li Yue raised her head and handed over a piece of pastry.
Zhang Yang caught it with his mouth.
Seeing this woman feeding the man, this intimate act made many women walking on the street feel ashamed or envious.
Why are there girls so shameless?
It does look sweet.
Thinking that their husbands wished they could treat each other as guests, the women let out a long sigh.
In the past, my family didn't have much money, so I basically didn't spend anything when I went out.
Now that he has money, Li Yue is extremely arrogant. When he sees something he likes, he buys it directly.
After a while she bought another lantern.
Holding a lantern and taking small steps, she noticed another old man from the Western Regions.
This old man from the Western Region spread a cloth on the ground, and on the cloth were placed three bowls that were upside down.
After understanding it, this is actually a gamble.
People put money under one of the bowls, and the old man quickly moved the three bowls. After moving, people could guess which bowl contained the money.
If the old man guesses correctly, he will pay double the money; if he guesses wrong, the money won will belong to the old man from the Western Regions.
Several people took turns to participate in the gambling game, and they all lost.
Li Yue blinked and said, "How about we try it too?"
Zhang Yang said: "It's so boring, so unskilled."
Li Yue whispered: "But so many people have lost."
Zhang Yang cleared his throat and said, "Well, if I win, you can kiss me."
"..."
"Kiss for what?" Li Yue was a little surprised.
It took a while for her to understand what she meant. She hit Zhang Yang on the shoulder with her small fist and whispered: "There are so many people."
"How about forgetting it."
Li Yue took Zhang Yang's hand and said, "If you lose, you will make me ten meals of fermented glutinous rice dumplings!"
After speaking, Li Yue took out a piece of silver cake the size of a fingernail and handed it to Zhang Yang.
Then she showed a proud smile, as if she had already obtained the wine.
Zhang Yang handed the silver cake to the old man from the Western Region, "Let me try."
The old man from the Western Region smiled and grabbed the silver cake with a bowl, and then quickly moved the three bowls.
After a while, he stopped and made a gesture of invitation.
There were many people watching around.
Li Yue stood beside Zhang Yang, waiting to unveil the bowl.
The old man from the Western Region said in a low voice: "Master, please."
Zhang Yang pointed to a bowl on the right and said, "It's definitely not in this bowl."
After speaking, I opened the bowl, and it was indeed empty under the bowl.
The onlookers started talking again.
Zhang Yang pointed to the bowl on the left and said, "It's not in this bowl either."
Everyone watched him open the second bowl, but it was also empty.
There is only the last bowl left, and it is only possible that the silver cake is in the last bowl.
Li Yue's expression also froze on her face.
The old man from the Western Region smiled, paid Zhang Yang two pieces of silver cake of the same size, and left in a hurry, not even asking for the bowl.
Only then did everyone come to their senses. This Westerner was a liar!
Someone gave chase on the spot.
Zhang Yang held the silver cake in his hand and said, "Someone just made a bet with me."
Li Yue frowned and said, "Did you notice it too?"
Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "It's just a cover-up. You also know that there are actually none in the three bowls. The old man from the Western Regions has very long sleeves. He wants the money to appear in whichever bowl he wants."
"Actually, I wasn't in the bowl from the beginning. He had it in his sleeve a long time ago, so you think I will definitely lose."
Li Yue stamped her feet in frustration, "Who knew you could play like this!"
Zhang Yang pointed to the side of his face and said: "I am willing to admit defeat."
Li Yue said: "You are cheating. You are more cunning than that man from the Western Regions."
"That's what you want to bet with me yourself."
Both of them saw through each other's tricks, but Li Yue didn't expect that Zhang Yang not only saw through it, but also made it difficult for the Western Region native to get off the stage.
Looking at Li Yue's troubled face, Zhang Yang said: "It's not difficult to deal with that kind of person as long as you use some wisdom."
Li Yue's face was extremely red.
Even if the Tang Dynasty is relatively open, ordinary girls have never heard of such a request, let alone on the street with so many people.
It's really hard for my little wife.
Zhang Yang touched her little head and said, "People's hearts are sinister, learn more, and let's take care of this kiss first."
"How can you be as dangerous as you..."
Li Yue's voice was very low, like a mosquito chirping.
Holding his arm, Li Yue walked and said: "Ten meals of rice dumplings are gone..."
The fireworks were put off on New Year's Eve, which happened to be the day when the curfew was lifted in Chang'an City.
Zhang Yang looked for the best place to watch the fireworks.
Finally, his eyes fell on a bell tower. This bell tower was next to the temple. Zhang Yang remembered that there was a big bell on the top of this place. This was the kind of bell that the evening drums and morning bells were ringing.
Of course, this kind of facility is also used to provide early warning in the city.
There are no officers or soldiers guarding that place, so it is considered one of the high places that ordinary people can go to.
Other relatively high places in Chang'an City are guarded by officers and soldiers.
The two of them walked slowly on Zhuque Street.
Li Yue usually doesn't go out, but she also likes to watch this kind of human fireworks.
The city of Chang'an was more lively at night than during the day. There were drunk people chanting poems loudly, and there were also people who drank too much and started fighting with others.
