Princess, how am I from you?

The teahouse has been decorated according to Guan Xin's design, and the location is also determined to be in Pingkangfang, Guan Xin's favorite. In modern terms, it is the commercial center of Chang'an City. There are many shops and products. Not only local Businessmen, foreign businessmen and even foreign businessmen can also see a lot here.In addition to buying and selling goods, there are most restaurants and brothels here, which are the gentle towns where many literati, poets, dignitaries and dignitaries love to linger.

Guan Xin also took a fancy to this point, so he wanted to choose the location of the teahouse here.According to her understanding from various sources, the living standard of the Tang Dynasty is improving day by day. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is not something to brag about. The instinct of human progress.So now anyone who has a little spare money wants to pursue some spiritual food. Poetry and pottery, ceramic crafts, etc. are gradually rising, and sports such as polo and pot throwing are also popular all over the country.And the consumer groups that Guan Xin wanted to lock in most were those literati, as well as those rich people who were not short of money and liked to be arty.That's why she wants to open a teahouse in Fangshi, where these people like to stay most, which is different from all the restaurants and brothels, as a clean stream to swim against the current.

When Guan Xin came to the restaurant, the workers were working in full swing. The foreman was an old acquaintance, and he brought people to decorate the restaurant. Everyone is familiar with Guan Xin's decoration style, and the foreman is also familiar with it, so most of the decorations are done. It's in line with Guan Xin's wishes, but there are some small things and some slight revisions. After explaining to the foreman, Guan Xin confirmed the completion time. It will be completed in about seven or eight days, and there will be a few more days for release. As for the finishing time, there is no need to worry about formaldehyde now, there will be about ten more days in total. Guan Xin calculated the date, gave some instructions to the foreman, and took the people to Changyi.I made an appointment for three days to go to test the results and accompany Yuzhang to pray for blessings, which was delayed. Today I have time to go and have a look.And there is another thing that must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. After thinking about it, another thing is more important. After all, nothing is as important as a wife.So she asked the coachman to change direction and go directly to Princess Changle's mansion.

Not long after her carriage passed by, the two sneaky people watched Guan Xin's departure direction and whispered to each other before turning around and disappearing in the crowd of people on the street.

For Guan Xin, Princess Changle's mansion now seems to follow her own house. Changle has told everyone that Guan Xin will let her in directly when she comes, without notification.So the boy at the door saw that it was Guan Xin's carriage and went straight to welcome him in.Guan Xin didn't go to see Chang Le either, but plunged into the yard where those craftsmen lived, and found a bricklayer and a blacksmith respectively.She drew up sketches on the spot, and what she drew made the two of them look at each other in disbelief.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand this picture. Master Zhang, you just need to be responsible for building it according to the picture. Note that after linking these rail links, you must try to make them fit as closely as possible without too many gaps. Wait for the build I’ll teach you how to assemble and use after I come out. This is what’s left.” Guan Xin turned to the master bricklayer beside him, “To be honest, it’s a bit difficult, and I only know a little about it. This is a kang, which is used by northern residents to keep warm in winter. You see, it is built with mud and blue bricks, and there should be a flue in the middle, so that the smoke can be discharged out of the room through this flue, and it can’t float back into the house. There should be a hole for the fire at this position, and the fire can be burned. After the firewood is fired, the hot smoke in the flue heats up the entire kang, that’s all I can say, and you can discuss the rest yourself.”

The master bricklayer looked embarrassed, but he was hired by someone, so he had to think carefully. He also knew that what Miss Guan said must be reasonable. After all, the oil press was an example back then. I didn't know what it was and thought that the girl was just talking nonsense, but after researching it, I found that it was really a good thing, and the girl was indeed right.It's just that the process is a bit difficult, but the method is all thought up by people. He has worked as a mason for so many years, and he can't believe that he can't do this thing.

After instructing the two of them, I thought of going to the main courtyard to visit the owner of the mansion.Chang Le was reading the storybook, which he brought back from Yuzhang, and was lying on the Hu bed under the quilt, watching it addictively, when Guan Xin came in from the outside.He raised his head and took a look, then turned his eyes back to the storybook, "It's been a long time since I came here, there must be something new."

"Princess is wise, I do have some new ideas. If it succeeds, you and Your Highness won't have to suffer so hard this winter. I have already asked people to start researching. If there is anything that needs support, please be sure, Princess. Strong support is required, especially if a room is needed for experiments." Guan Xin sat down at Chang Le's feet without any hesitation, on the edge of the bed, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Aren't you messing around a little? Tell Hongyu later and ask her to arrange it. I'm about to finish reading this book. When will you come up with some new ones?" Chang Le squinted at Guan Xin's movements, not knowing what to do. Whatever he said, he was acquiescing to Guan Xin's random behavior.She was thinking that if Guan Xin was really with Liu Niang in the future, the relationship between everyone would naturally be further improved, and there would be no need to be too cautious. Besides, Guan Xin was a girl, so she would not be so defensive. disgusted.

Guan Xin tilted his head and glanced at the cover, it was Legend of the White Snake.He said with a smile, "I have a story now, but I've written half of it. It's just that I haven't figured out the ending yet, and it's not that I haven't thought about it. There can be two endings, but I don't know which one to use, and it's hard to choose at the moment. "

"Oh? Let's hear it." Chang Le became interested and put down the notebook in his hand.

"The main idea of ​​the story is about a girl whose father was a general, but was persecuted by an adulterer and imprisoned wrongly. In order to help her father, her daughter disguised herself as a man to win the first prize and entered the imperial court. Later, she was persecuted and committed suicide by throwing herself into a lake. Fortunately, she was rescued by the prime minister’s wife who was swimming in the lake, and was later recognized by the prime minister as a foster daughter. They met each other on their wedding night. In order to protect each other, they pretended to be a loving couple in front of outsiders. At night, they returned to the room to be affectionate sisters. Now there are two endings. At the beginning, the lady had a fiance, so the ending is that the lady avenged her father, Being a daughter and getting married with her fiancé, the second ending is that the young lady and the sisters do the fake show for real, and love each other for a long time, and make mistakes together until they grow old. Both endings are pretty good, but I really don’t have time to make up stories now I'm too busy. Seeing that the teahouse is about to open, I still have a lot of things I can't figure out.

Chang Le squinted his eyes, and said that this man would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he either asked her for this or asked her for that. "If you want someone, why don't you ask Liu Niang, but come to me for it, and I don't owe you anything, and you won't give me a copper coin for the money you earn in the future. Why, you think my place is a kind hall."

"Hey, what did the princess say? You and His Royal Highness are sisters. I'm so close to you that I'm jealous. Why should I share them with each other? Besides, the teahouse I'm busy with also has your shares. I'm sure I'll give you a lot of money if I make money. How can you not give me anything, then who am I? Isn’t it because His Highness the Sixth Highness is weak, and I don’t want her to worry about these things, or she will be tired, and it’s not you who loves her.” That’s my daughter-in-law, How can she be willing to let her worry about this.

"Don't be sloppy with me. I'm used to fooling around. Tell me, what kind of person do you want to help you." Chang Le raised his hand and pinched Guan Xin's pretty face. This person is always unbearable. No wonder Chang Yi always wanted to tease her.

"It's best to have strong language organization skills. I can't say a sentence and she writes a sentence. Then what do I want her to do? I can write it myself. What I need is the kind where I give her a general direction, and she is responsible for the content. I'm full."

"There are quite a lot of demands." Chang Le rolled his eyes, then stopped talking, thinking silently to see who is more suitable.The maids around her were not good, they could only read a few words, if they were to make up stories, it would be embarrassing for them. "At the moment, I can't think of who is suitable. You can ask Liu Niang to help you first, and you can also find some work for her. Don't always think about it. I will introduce it to you when I think of a suitable candidate."

"That's no good. Making up stories is too tiring for my brain. I can't bear to let her be troubled. I finally adjusted my sleep, because I can't sleep well after this? No, no, if there is no suitable person for the time being, then I will do it first. Anyway, these few notebooks are enough to talk about for a while. Let’s talk about it when someone chooses it.” Guan Xin rejected Chang Le’s proposal with one bad idea and two bad ones.

"Oh, I said for a long time that you love Liu Niang, so you come to me for everything, right?" Chang Le suddenly came to his senses, looked at Guan Xin dumbfounded, and poked Guan Xin's forehead fiercely with his fingers, "You are the only one who is clever." , I'm sure I can't do anything to you, can I?"

"Hey" Guan Xin avoids Chang Le's finger, "Isn't that my future wife, of course I have to feel sorry for it, besides, princess, you are idle every day, so it would be nice for me to have some fun for you. You Fingers are cold enough, I have already drawn the pattern of the hand stove for the craftsman, and I will use it as soon as I make it." Changle's fingertips were cold, and when he poked her forehead just now, it felt as if he had touched a popsicles.

"Oh, if Liu Niang uses her brain, you will feel distressed. I need a hand stove to worry about hard work. You are so biased, aren't you ashamed?" Both sides of Guan Xin's cheeks were pulled outwards forcefully.

"Hey, hey, it hurts, the princess is merciful, and I didn't say that you have to worry about it alone. There are still several shareholders, and we can't let them eat ready-made ones. You can discuss it with them, actually. My idea is that it is best for you to write these stories together, after all, your knowledge is much higher than ordinary people, and they are all people you can trust, if there is anything, it will not be leaked." Finally, from Changle Bingliang Freed his face from his hands, rubbed it and hissed, this brat was really trying hard, it hurt so much.

Chang Le was right when he thought about it, why not let them worry about it, why bother racking his brains here by himself, so that Liu Niang can also participate occasionally and not be too tired, and there is a way to distract energy.Puzzled, he pinched Guan Xin again, and then snorted, "I am Liu Niang's own sister, she cares more about me than you, if you cheat me like this again, I will never help you again." , let you think about it by yourself, you know, Liu Niang is obedient to me, if I make her not allow you to accept you, you will have to struggle for a few more years."

"Don't, you are my own sister, don't say that, I'm already heartbroken, she stabs my heart with words every day, I'm almost riddled with holes, and pointing at you can I help me Blow the wind in my ears, let me avoid some detours, otherwise I don't know if I can live to that day, and I will be vomited by her first, and I don't need to renew her life, I guess I will have to go before her. "

"Go, stop talking nonsense, don't say these unlucky things. Get away, I don't want to see you, go back and wait, and they will come to you when I get it right." Chang Le stretched his leg and kicked the person away, This person's words are too annoying, so he doesn't like to hear these unlucky words.

Guan Xin rubbed his nose in embarrassment, the tube pierced his lungs, the fault came first, the wind was tight, shit!Coming out of Changle Mansion, looking at the sun, it was almost noon, and my stomach started to feel empty, so I wanted to take the two followers to the restaurant to fill my stomach first, and then go to Changyi.Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped over the threshold, he saw Cheng Yujiao walking down from the second floor.

"Finished?"

"Never, I was out today to run some errands, and happened to be passing by. Yesterday, some sister-in-laws wanted to eat the food here, so I brought some back by the way. Are you just here?"

"Well, I'm going to see what's going on in the tea house. I'm hungry and come over for lunch, and I'll go to the princess's side to see how the girls' tea art is going."

"Then why not go home with me, the princess is not bad for a day, I will accompany my mother to visit relatives in other places in two days, I am afraid that I will be away for a few days, I will teach you a few tricks today, you practice first Practice, and you won’t run into those dudes who don’t know what to do.”

Guan Xin thought about it, and it worked. Although he was good at it a few times, it was not enough to stand in front of people who really knew martial arts. He nodded without hesitation, "Alright, let's go, I'll go to the Princess's place tomorrow."

The first time she came to the Duke's Mansion, Guan Xin couldn't help being a little cautious, after all, it wasn't the Princess Mansion, which allowed her to be so presumptuous.Although Cheng Yujiao was forthright, it didn't prevent her from being cautious. Seeing Guan Xin's reserved appearance, she couldn't help laughing out loud, "I'm not used to you being like this. Just treat it as if you're at home. It's fine."

Guan Xin gave her a blank stare, anyway, it was the first time she came to the door, even if she pretended, she should pretend.Cheng Yujiao covered her mouth and snickered, and ordered someone to send the food she had brought back to the kitchen, while she brought Guan Xin directly to the training ground.Unexpectedly, the martial arts training ground was quite lively, and she thought that there should be no one at this point.

Cheng Yujiao wondered why the brothers didn't go out today, while Guan Xin was attracted by the back and forth fight in the middle of the field.This is the most authentic martial arts scene. There are no fancy sound effects, only the dull sound of body collisions and the whirring of two people competing in martial arts.In the middle of the arena, there are two people competing, and standing opposite them are two men, who are not very old, and look like they are in their 20s.Guan Xin didn't even know each other, so he casually glanced at the person opposite, and focused on watching the competition.I was so envious in my heart, it would be great if she could also have such a skill, the Hou Yunchang who didn't fight was full of teeth.It's a pity that just thinking about it, it's too late for her to practice now, and the hardship is probably unbearable, so she should just take those two bodyguards with her.

Maybe it was because someone came. After punching each other, the two people in the field stopped at the same time, hugged each other, and then laughed. One of them waved to Guan Xin.

Cheng Yujiao pulled Guan Xin forward, "Brother, why didn't you go out today, I thought you weren't here."

Oh, it turned out to be Cheng Yujiao's eldest brother, that is Cheng Chumo, Guan Xin looked at him silently.Thick eyebrows, big eyes, strong figure, very heroic, and looked at Cheng Yujiao silently, both brothers have a heroic look in their eyebrows and eyes, their faces are not the same, Cheng Chumo's Chinese character face, Yujiao's oval face, probably just like his mother, but you can see The two have similar shadows.

While Guan Xin was looking at Cheng Chumo, he was also looking at Guan Xin.My little sister has quite a few friends, but it was the first time that she was so carelessly led to the training ground.

"Seventh Sister, this girl is new, and she doesn't introduce herself." The one who spoke was one of them who was standing on the sidelines just now.

From the address, he knew that he was also one of Cheng Yujiao's older brothers, and his appearance was [-]% similar to Cheng Chumo's.Guan Xin wasn't that shy person either, he was reserved, but when it came to socializing, he wasn't too bad.Hearing the question, he smiled and gave a salute, "Guan Xin, the daughter of the people, I have met some young masters."

"Let me introduce you. This is my elder brother Cheng Chumo, this is my second brother Cheng Chuliang, and this is sister Min's husband, Yuchi Baoqi. I don't know this one, so let me introduce you."

"Xue Li met Miss Seven, Miss Guan."

"Guan Xin?" Cheng Chuliang snapped, "The girl is the owner of the famous Juxian Tower in Chang'an?"

Guan Xin nodded in acknowledgment.Cheng Chuliang looked at his little sister and said with a smile, "You invited this powerful person to your home today without making any noise." Delicious, the food at home is like chewing wax, I really want to tie the cook in the building to the house, but just think about it, who doesn't know that there are two princesses standing behind the restaurant.So even I was a little more curious about the apparent owner of the restaurant, I only heard the name, but never met him.

After all, Cheng Chumo is the eldest brother. Compared with Cheng Chuliang's bluffing, he is much more stable. Although Guan Xin, an ordinary restaurant owner, is not enough to attract his attention, but there are two princesses behind Guan Xin, so he dare not underestimate him. .He smiled and said, "I've only heard of the girl's name, and I've also heard about the girl's character from my younger sister, but I have never met her before. It's an honor to meet my brother today. How can my younger sister bring someone else's girl here?" This place is not afraid of being laughed at by others, why not go to the main hall and call your sisters-in-law, it's only fun when you girls are together."

"I didn't expect you to be at home at this hour. I was going to bring Xinxin here to learn some self-defense tactics. Didn't you hear that Hou Yunchang went to the restaurant to make trouble a few days ago? Fortunately, the sixth princess came in time, otherwise Maybe Xinxin will suffer, I will teach her a few tricks, if he dares to make trouble again, let Xinxin teach her a lesson."

"I have also heard about this matter, but this martial arts can't be practiced in a day or two. The few moves you teach will have an unexpected effect. When you go out for a walk, the girl's family still needs to bring more talents. good."

"What the eldest son said was that I was indeed frightened after that incident, so His Highness sent me guards, and now I take them with me wherever I go, so I feel more at ease. But you can't always rely on others, sometimes when you have to be alone , I still have some confidence in such a one-and-a-half way at the meeting, so I asked Miss Seven." Guan Xin controlled the tone of his speech, trying his best to integrate his tone and habits with this era.

Cheng Chumo laughed, "That's right, if you don't overwhelm yourself, then I'll give up this place to the girl. Be careful, little girl, and be careful not to hurt the girl. The sixth princess is here to ask you for your crime. Let's go, Baoqi." , Rengui, let's go drink. It is rare for Rengui to take a rest today, and he will not return home without getting drunk."

Guan Xin watched them leave with a smile, his mind kept spinning, Xue Rengui?The prototype of Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan?Surprisingly, there is another story that can be compiled into a storybook. The story of Wang Baochuan's 18 years of staying in the cold kiln is a good story.

"Hey, look stupid? Everyone is gone, who are you looking at? It would be great if you fell in love with my brother. Although my brother has a wife, he can be a concubine. With me around, no one will bully you. Then we can play together every day, how nice it is." The concubine is one level higher than the concubine, but the status is not too high.Cheng Yujiao's idea was that even if she was a concubine, no one would bully Guan Xin when she was around.

Guan Xin rolled her eyes and showed her, "It's a beautiful idea. I don't like your brother who is so powerful. Besides, I'm not as comfortable as I am now when I get married. I want to do whatever I want. Do you want to marry someone?" , just beat me with these words, I don’t want to do what you say.”

"Hey, you're the one who wants to get married. I don't want to get married so early. Let's go, let's see if I can teach you a few tricks."

In the end, Guan Xin clutched her waist and limped out of the Duke's mansion step by step. Cheng Yujiao laughed and asked her to eat, but Guan Xin quickly refused. Even if she starved to death, she didn't want to stay. , people call it a strict teacher who produces high-quality apprentices, but this is the first time for Guan Xin to be alright. Today, these few falls made her doubt her life. She was thrown by that brat in various ways. .However, being thrown all afternoon was not ineffective at all, at least she memorized the tricks and half-styles, the pure experience of falling out.

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts, Miss Nuanxin, take it easy."

Yuzhang got up from his afternoon nap and went for a walk, and then went to practice calligraphy with Tang Jianri when he was done.As soon as I got back to the main courtyard, I heard howling from Guan Xin's room.Thinking that he was being bullied again, he couldn't help walking to the next door.

"Mother, is it Aunt Xin? Why are you screaming so loudly?"

Yuzhang didn't say anything, and walked a little faster. Before entering the room, he smelled a smell of medicinal wine. When he entered the door, Guan Xin was only wearing a bellyband, and she even picked up the obscene trousers. The thighs, the whole person was lying on the bed almost naked, and Nuan Xin was rubbing his back with both hands.And the skin that was supposed to be fair and smooth will turn blue and purple, not a good place.

Yuzhang immediately reached out and covered Tang Jianri's eyes, no matter how young the child is, he is still a boy, so Guan Xin's appearance should not be seen by others.

"Mother, don't cover me. Aunt Xin is coming to see you."

Guan Xin was lying on her stomach with her head turned inward, when she heard the voice and turned her head with difficulty, she saw Yu Zhang standing at the door covering Tang Jianri's eyes.Showing a smile that is not much better than crying, "The smell in the room is strong, Your Highness should lead the young master out."

"Nuanyi, lead the day out."

Tang Jianri's eyes were covered again as soon as he saw Liang. He wanted to break free, but he was hugged directly. "Let me go, let me down."

"Good day, Aunt Xin will come to play with you later, Aunt Xin will talk to your mother first."

When Tang Jianri was carried away, Yuzhang frowned and glanced at Guan Xin.The tone was somewhat angry, "Who hit it? Didn't they bring you guards?" There was almost no good place on the whole back and thighs, wearing obscene pants, looking at the continuous marks, the buttocks were also full of injuries. , all tinged with bruises.

"Hiss, take it easy." Guan Xin grinned in pain, "We're sparring with Yujiao, and that girl is too ruthless."

Yuzhang raised his willow eyebrows, he didn't know what to say, this person is asking for trouble, he deserves it! "Warm heart, use more force, if you don't use force, the effect of the medicine will not be exerted." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and heard pig-killing howls and heart-warming snickers behind him, with the corners of his mouth upturned, "You deserve it!"
