My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Chapter 1 My name is Chang An, I traveled through time

Chang An slowly opened his eyes, rubbed them, sat up and yawned. He turned around, moved his feet to the edge of the bed, and let them fall naturally to the ground, but he felt a little strange from his feet. He didn't care, and continued to squint his eyes, moving his feet randomly.

But after searching for a while, he still couldn't find the familiar slippers, which made him open his eyes and lower his head to look for his slippers, but what he saw made him stunned - a square rectangular object appeared in front of him.

He raised his head and looked around - he was sitting on a bed, and a little in front of the bed was a screen.

"What the hell?"

He picked up a boot-like thing beside his feet. It looked more like a shoe than a boot, but it was still called a shoe. He put the shoe on his feet and walked around the screen. Not far in front of the screen was a table, but the table was very low, with a cushion on each side of the table.

Chang An raised his head. Opposite the table was a study-like setting, with a table-like thing with a desk on top and a window behind it. The desk was surrounded by bookshelves filled with books.

Keep going forward and there is a door on the left side, a little bit in front of the table.

Chang An lowered his head for some unknown reason and found that he was wearing a plain-colored suit that looked like ancient pajamas. If there was a mirror in front of him, he would probably be able to see his wonderful expression.

Chang An came to the door and listened outside. He could hear some rustling sounds, but he couldn't tell what caused it. He pushed the door open and looked out. There was a large courtyard outside. The courtyard was surrounded by stone bricks. There was no other decoration except for the small pavilion in the center. At this time, a woman was walking towards him with a basin and something like a toothbrush.

"Young master, are you awake? Why don't you wait in the room first?" The female family member asked when she saw Chang An standing at the door in pajamas.

Chang An was stunned for a moment, looked back at the room, and suddenly a "memory" popped up in his mind.

This body is also named Chang'an, 18 years old, and lives in Anrenfang, Chang'an City. It is the seventh year of Kaiyuan, which is 719 AD, the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. The father of this body is Chang Wenmeng, a doctor of the Imperial College and a fifth-rank official. His mother died of illness when he was six years old.

The owner of this body was a scholar, very talented in reading, proficient in the Four Books and Six Arts, and even learned some martial arts. He was very tall, but he was a bit naughty and often behaved unruly, which made his father love and hate him.

"Young Master?" Seeing that Chang An didn't respond, the female family member called out again.

Chang An then came to his senses and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him who was wearing a chest-length skirt - this was his personal maid named Huaiqin.

"Um, nothing. I just came out to get some fresh air." Chang An answered with two dry laughs.

"Young master, you'd better go in quickly. Tomorrow is October, the beginning of the cool season. Don't catch a cold," Huaiqin urged.

Chang An had no choice but to turn around and go back to the house. As soon as Huaiqin entered the house, she put the basin, towel and toothbrush on a shelf, and then stood aside.

"Young Master, please wash up quickly, as we have to go to Madam Gu's house later."

Chang An had no choice but to go to the basin, pick up the toothbrush, dip it in water and start brushing his teeth.

Madam Gu?

How come this "Chang'an" has no memory of this so-called "Mrs. Gu" at all?

Chang An thought as he wiped his face.

"Sir, you must go later. If you still don't go, Alang will teach you a lesson when he comes back."

Chang An now knew why he had no memory of this "Mrs. Gu". It seemed that he had never seen her before. He guessed that the original "Chang An" was stubborn and didn't like to be bound by marriage.

"Help me change my clothes and prepare the carriage. I'll be there soon."

Chang An wet the towel, wrung it out, and then wiped his face, but he didn't wait for Huaiqin's reaction. He looked at Huaiqin with a puzzled look, but found that the other party was looking at him with an unbelievable look. Huaiqin even reached out and touched Chang An's forehead.

"I don't have a fever..." Huaiqin said with a puzzled look.

"Why did you agree so quickly today?"

"Okay, okay, what are you thinking about?" Chang An put the towel back next to the washbasin.

Huaiqin had to put aside her doubts for the time being, walked to the clothes rack, took down the clothes, and helped Chang An put them on. Then she pouted and said, "When the young master and Madam Gu get married, it will be Madam Gu who will help the young master get dressed..."

marriage?

Do you have an engagement?

Chang An was stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal. After all, in ancient times, marriage matters had to be decided by parents. He understood it in his heart - after all, he had been a first-class protected animal in the country for more than 30 years in his previous life, and this time he got a wife. Who wouldn't be happy?

"Let's go to Gu's house later. For breakfast, we'll go to the street and buy two steamed buns and then go over there." Chang An said after straightening his clothes.

"what?"

Huaiqin tilted her head, frowned slightly, took a few steps back, and began to look at the man in front of her with a scrutinizing gaze.

"what happened?"

Before Huaiqin could ask a question, Chang An spoke first.

"Um... Sir, you didn't like eating buns before..."

Huaiqin said that because her young master really didn't like steamed buns and wouldn't touch them at all, every vegetarian day, Chang'an would secretly keep the steamed buns and bring them back for Huaiqin to eat.

"I......"

The "memory" about the buns popped up in Chang An's mind. He was scratching his head, not knowing how to explain it, when he suddenly heard Huaiqin burst into laughter.

"Please forgive me, sir. You can do whatever you want. Huaiqin will be the one to eat in the end anyway." Huaiqin covered her mouth with her hands, her eyebrows curved, as if she was a little teasing.

"Okay, okay, let's go."

Chang An felt embarrassed and pushed the door open and went out.

Led by Huaiqin, from the courtyard to the gate of the mansion, Chang'an stood at the gate and looked around. The men on the street were all wearing robes, the women were all wearing chest-length skirts, and the buildings were all decorated in Tang Dynasty style.

"Sir, get in the car."

Huaiqin shouted, and then Chang'an saw a carriage parked beside the door. Huaiqin had already placed the pedal in front of the carriage. Chang'an walked over and got on the carriage. After Huaiqin followed, the servant beside him removed the pedal, climbed onto the carriage, and led the two of them to Gu's house.

Sitting in the carriage, Chang An lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside the window, feeling very novel. Pedestrians coming and going on the street, when men meet each other, they will hold their right hand with their left hand, put their right palm on their left thumb, and raise their right thumb to salute; when women travel together, they all hold round fans in their hands and laugh happily.

It used to be said that fat was considered beautiful in the Tang Dynasty, but not many of the women Chang'an saw on the street were really fat. Half of them were slim and graceful beauties, and there were also some plump women.

Everyone in the Tang Dynasty could write poetry. While sitting in the carriage, Chang An could actually hear some passers-by reciting poems on the roadside, some of them were even the poems of Li Bai, the banished immortal from heaven, which made Chang An sigh with emotion.

But after the novelty wore off, he began to think about his current situation. Since he had traveled through time, how did he do it?

Originally, Chang An was just a sales manager in a company. He drank too much yesterday and went home to fall asleep. When he woke up, he found himself here. Even though he was a straightforward person, this sudden time travel was hard to understand.

"Am I taking over someone else's body?"

Chang An said silently in his heart.

Huaiqin looked at the young man sitting opposite him, holding his chin, as if thinking about something. The young man who used to be very naughty and free-spirited actually had such a serious expression, which made people feel a little pleasing. So she asked, "What are you thinking about, young master?"

"nothing......"

Chang An couldn't figure out anything, so he could only put this doubt behind him.

The carriage arrived at a market town. The servant driving the carriage had been instructed to stop in front of a steamed bun shop. Chang An opened the carriage curtain and said to the owner of the steamed bun shop, "I want four big meat buns. The whitest, largest and hottest ones are best. The ones that feel hot to the touch are the best!"

"okay."

The boss quickly packed four large meat buns and handed them to the servant, who then passed them to Chang'an in the car. Huaiqin took out a few copper coins from her small purse and put them in Chang'an's hand, which was then handed to the boss.

"Oh, it's so hot, it must be fresh and delicious."

The carriage continued to move. Chang An took out one of the four buns and put it in the confused hand of Huaiqin. He then opened the curtain and stuffed one into the hands of the servant driving the car. Without listening to his words of thanks, he went back to the carriage.

Chang An directly picked up a bun, put it in his mouth and took a big bite. It looked like he was eating it with great relish. Huai Qin's eyes widened with surprise and she even forgot to eat the bun in her mouth.

It was not until Chang An finished a bun and wanted to eat another one that he noticed Huai Qin standing opposite him in shock. He was also stunned when he saw this and subconsciously handed over the last bun in his hand:

"Isn't that enough? I'll give you another one?"

Chang An thought she was not full, so he naturally handed the bun in his hand to her.

"Ah... No, that's enough, sir. Huaiqin has had enough..."

Chang An saw this and continued to eat. Huai Qin looked at her master like this, puzzled, but she had to finish the buns given by her master, so she had to continue eating the buns in her hand. But while eating, Huai Qin still glanced at Chang An from the corner of her eyes from time to time.

"I feel like the young master is a little different today..."

"In the past, he would not get up unless I called him, but today he was outside before I even got home..."

"You keep saying you don't like buns, but today you ate them so deliciously..."

"You are still unwilling to marry a merchant, but today you are willing to go and see Madam Gu..."

"Are all gentlemen nowadays like this..."
