After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

"Sing quickly, stop talking about this and that," said Mr. Tan.

Wang Yugui had no choice but to drink a sip of wine to moisten his throat: "Well, then I will make a fool of myself!"

After that, he took another sip of wine, stood up, cleared his throat, and tapped the dishes twice with his chopsticks to keep the rhythm.

He began to sing: "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky. I don't know what year it is in the palace in heaven..."

Wang Yugui sang with great devotion, and his emotions grew more and more as he sang...Miss Tan and Mr. and Mrs. Tan listened very attentively.

After the song, Miss Tan said first: "May we live long and share the beauty of the moon together even though we are thousands of miles apart!"

"The lyrics are good, but the music feels a bit strange!" Mr. Tan frowned slightly.

Mrs. Tan smiled and said, "Oh, sir, as long as it sounds good, it's fine. I think it sounds good and is very appropriate to the occasion!"

"Madam is right. This song is indeed very suitable for the occasion." Mr. Tan nodded.

He looked at Wang Yugui and asked, "Where did you learn this song?"

"I just saw it by chance in an ancient book," Wang Yugui said hurriedly.

After hearing this, Mr. Tan frowned again: "Oh, what book?"

"I can't remember exactly what book it was, I just remember this piece of music," Wang Yugui said hurriedly, sweating secretly, afraid that Mr. Tan would not believe him.

Mr. Tan didn't believe it and looked at Wang Yugui again: "Can't you remember any books you've read? You're so young, how can you have such a bad memory?"

"Yes, I saw it several years ago, so I forgot it," Wang Yugui explained.

Mrs. Tan laughed again: "Oh, Master, it's just a book of music scores. Who would bother to remember the title? It's normal to forget it!"

As he spoke, he also looked at Wang Yugui and praised him: "If you ask me, it's already very good that Master Wang can remember such a song."

"It's rare that Prince Wang sings so well. No wonder Xi'er always praises him for his ability to sing new songs, haha!"

"Oh, Mom, I didn't praise him all the time. I only praised him a few times," Miss Tan laughed.

Wang Yugui laughed and said, "I'm sorry for showing off my ugliness. I just hope the lady is happy!"

"Haha, happy, happy," Mrs. Tan laughed, and then said to Mr. Tan, "Master, look how good this child is at talking. He is really lovable. When he comes, even dinner time at our house becomes much more lively!"

"Ahem, ahem." Mr. Tan coughed twice and snorted, "He's only good at these little tricks!"

"If he had put his time spent reading idle books into studying for a good position earlier, why would he still be a student today? Humph!"

Oh my god, Mr. Tan’s habit of scolding people has struck again.

Wang Yugui was embarrassed and hurriedly said with a smile: "Mr. Tan is right, but as the ancients said, it is never too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost!"

"I'm studying hard now, it's not too late!"

"Brother, you are only eighteen, not eighty. It is certainly not too late." Miss Tan continued.

Then he said to Master Tan, "Dad, why do you always criticize your brother?"

"When you were eighteen, could you paint? Were you a famous painter in the city? Could you sing new songs?"

"This...you little girl, how can you talk to your father like that?" Mr. Tan glared at his daughter after hearing this.

Miss Tan smiled and said, "Look, Dad, there are things you don't know, right? So, everyone has their own strengths, why force it!"

"Besides, isn't your brother trying to make up for his loss?"

"He is just one step away from becoming a scholar. I believe he will be able to pass the exam next year!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Wang is so smart, there will be no problem for him to pass the examination to become a scholar." Mrs. Tan also laughed.

He added: "Alas, it's a pity that our Xi'er is a girl, otherwise, our Xi'er would have passed the imperial examination early, and the master wouldn't have to always regret it!"

"Mom is right, Dad, you don't have to worry, Xiao Cong will grow up soon, just let him pass the imperial examination and get you a top scorer, isn't that enough?" Miss Tan smiled.

Mrs. Tan also laughed: "Yes, our Xiao Cong will definitely be able to pass the imperial examination and come back with a top scorer in the future!"

"Haha, Cong'er, you are very talented. I am not worried about you." Mr. Tan also laughed after hearing this.

As he said this, he looked at Wang Yugui again, and Wang Yugui quickly said to himself: "I am a slow bird, I must learn to fly first!"

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed after hearing this.

……

The next morning, Wang Yugui got up early to read. As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm, so he had to fly!

After morning reading, I went downstairs and practiced Tai Chi in the yard for a while.

While he was practicing boxing, Wang and his elder and second sisters also got up.

Another orderly day began. After washing up, the eldest sister went to open the shop first.

After sweeping the inside and outside of the store, he had just finished cleaning up when suddenly, a carriage came in front of the store. A servant got out of the carriage, carrying a large food box and a basket in his hands.

The waiter looked into the store with the food box in his hand and asked, "Excuse me, is Master Wang home?"

"Are you looking for my brother? Do you want to buy a painting?" The eldest sister came out to greet him.

The servant smiled and said, "You must be Miss Wang, right? I'm not here to buy paintings, I'm from the Tan Mansion."

"This is what our wife asked me to send to Prince Wang. It contains some food and a basket of crabs. Prince Wang and the ladies in the mansion are welcome to have a taste!"

"Ah, this, this is embarrassing!" The eldest sister heard it and said hurriedly: "Wait a moment, I will go call my brother!"

As he said that, he hurried inside and called out Wang Yugui. Wang Yugui hurried out to inquire about the situation. After the servant signed for the package, he smiled and drove away.

"Hey, brother, why did Mrs. Tan bring delicious food to our house so early in the morning?" The second sister was preparing to have breakfast.

Seeing Wang Yugui coming in with a lunch box, he quickly put down his chopsticks and ran over to look at the lunch box.

Wang Yugui opened the food box and was greeted by the aroma of crab roe buns. Wang Yugui smiled and said, "Ms. Tan is so thoughtful!"

"Wow, what kind of bun is this? Why does it smell so fresh?" The second sister looked at the crab roe bun and was very surprised.

Wang Yugui smiled and said, "It not only smells delicious, but it tastes even more delicious. This is called crab roe bun. Wang Ermei, you haven't tried it yet, right?"

"Yeah, yes, brother, I haven't eaten it yet." The second sister swallowed and nodded.

The eldest sister laughed: "Hey, brother, I haven't eaten it either!"

"Okay, then you all can try it today. As for mom, tell her not to make pancakes anymore. We'll have crab roe buns for breakfast today!" Wang Yugui smiled.

As they were talking, Wang came in with a plate of fried cakes. Seeing the food box, she smiled and said, "Hey, Gui'er, this, this is another gift from Miss Tan?"

"Mother, the servant said it was sent by Madam Tan, and there is also a basket of big crabs." The eldest sister smiled and pointed to the basket next to her.

Wang took the basket and looked at it: "Wow, this crab is so big!"

After counting them, there were eight in total. Wang said happily, "These eight big crabs must be worth a lot of silver, right?"

"Mom, this big one seems to cost one tael of silver each," said the eldest sister.

Wang frowned when she heard this: "Oh, so expensive, then these eight crabs will cost eight taels of silver?"

"It's too expensive, Gui'er. Isn't the gift from Mrs. Tan too expensive? Just a few crabs cost eight taels of silver. It's such a waste."

"Hey, mother, you should put it in the bucket first. It's hard to refuse Mrs. Tan's kindness," Wang Yugui smiled.

Wang agreed, picked up the crabs and went to the kitchen.

The second sister uncovered the food box underneath and exclaimed, "Oh, there are mooncakes too. These must be made by Sister Tan's family, right?"

"Of course, the ones made by Sister Tan must be better than those sold outside." The eldest sister also said hurriedly after seeing it.

Lifting the lid further down, there were cooked fresh water chestnuts and glutinous rice lotus root. Finally, there was a piece of paper with a fancy smiley face drawn on it. Next to the smiley face, there were only three words written: Good morning, stupid bird!
