Tang's dining table

Yun Chu was woken up by the sound of pigeons whistling.

What came into view was Yu Xiurong's beautiful face. Last night was so ridiculous that she was still sleeping soundly.

After taking off the arms hanging around his neck and legs hanging around his waist, Yun Chu got up after covering Yu Xiurong's beautiful body tightly with a quilt.

Although there are still many things to do, Yunchu doesn't intend to pay attention to them. There are always things to do and he will never be finished.

However, I have enjoyed countless mornings in Chang'an.

Opening the door, today is a very good day. The sky is blue and there is a little breeze. The morning air is a little bit cold, but it is very good. It cannot be compared with the coldness in the Western Regions.

The pomegranate tree in the yard is beginning to sprout new buds, and it's still early for the flowering season.

The jasmine bush in the corner was about to bloom, and the pale yellow flower buds fell to the ground. It was not just that Yu Xiurong was too lazy to send someone to clean it, but he also deliberately did not clean it because he liked such a mood.

People who plant bamboo in the yard are usually sick. There is a clump of bamboo growing near the window of Yu Xiurong's bedroom. The bamboo is not big, only about a foot high. It is thin and dense like a screen in front of the window.

It blocks the light and should be dug out.

Yu Xiurong's maid Zijuan has been waiting outside with a basin for a long time. They haven't seen each other for two years. This former maid has now become a woman, but she can still remember Yun Chu's habit of washing in the yard.

He had taken a shower last night, so Yunchu didn't plan to wash his hair. He immersed his face in the cold well water, and the remaining tiredness dissipated.

Ice water is for waking up, and warm water is for washing your face. Today, Yun Chu also plans to take care of his beard, which is like weeds.

Lying on a bamboo chair, Zijuan applied soap to Yunchu's face, and then Yu Xiurong came. She did not allow anyone except herself to use a knife on her husband's face or neck.

The sharp razor scraped across Yun Chu's face, making a subtle rustling sound, and Yu Xiurong's fingers were cold, making the shaving process a pleasure.

When the hot towel was applied to his face, a cold little hand grabbed Yun Chu's hand. Yun Chu touched it and knew it was Yun Jin's hand.

The man who promised to carry the child to the cafeteria last night seemed to be impatient.

Also, other people's sons can ride on Grandpa's neck while shopping, and Yun Jin wants to do the same.

When Yu Xiurong took off the hot towel on Yun Chu's face, a dark-skinned but energetic young man appeared in front of her. It was Yun Chu's deep eyes that made Yu Xiurong's heart go crazy. hot.

Yun Chu raised his hand and pinched Yu Xiurong's chin, then threw Yun Jin on his neck and went straight out the door. There were many people at this time, so he could satisfy Yun Jin's little desire to show off to the greatest extent.

Butler Liu Yi had been waiting at the gate early, holding a thick stack of documents and ledgers in his arms. He wanted to talk, but Yun Chu ignored him and quickly walked towards the cafeteria with his son on his back.

Wherever I go, there are people saluting Yunchu. Their smiles are actually quite embarrassing. Some people know Yunchu and don’t want to come over to salute. They just see others smiling enthusiastically and saluting very respectfully, so they just follow the crowd. I have the mentality to come and pay homage. Anyway, there is nothing to lose, and there may be unexpected benefits.

Yun Chu was not in the mood to pay much attention to these people. He was here to find a place for his son, so even though he was fooling around in a crowded place, he did not stop.

In today's Chang'an City, the most life-like place is the Jinchangfang Canteen.

Anyone who can get up early is a diligent person. As long as he is diligent, he can basically have money to have breakfast in the Jinchangfang cafeteria.

Under normal circumstances, diners don't think highly of people who buy temporary bamboo cards to eat, thinking that these people are just here to join in the fun.

Real diners will avoid places that sell bamboo signs, slowly come to the person who collects the signs, lift up their sleeves, and reveal a dark red bamboo sign that has been played with and almost pulpy, and show it to the person who collects the signs. After glancing at the number, he said what he wanted to eat and went to the table outside. He took out a pair of bamboo chopsticks also coated with starch from his sleeves, placed them horizontally on the small dish plate provided by the cafeteria, and quietly peeled the garlic.

When his food is ready, the workers do not call out his number, but call him Liu Er, Wednesday, Wang Si or other nicknames.

Maybe it's a bowl of noodles, the noodles in this bowl are bigger than others, the noodles are bigger than others, even the red pepper is put more than others, and a layer of red oil is spread on top.

Whenever a newcomer raises objections to the standard, the diners will proudly show off the bamboo chips tied to their wrists without any explanation.

Maybe it's a cage of meat buns. This cage of meat buns must have one more bun than others, or it may be made with leeks and eggs, or it may be made with dried tofu and vegetables. In short, the benefits are tangible and visible.

There are even more exquisite ones, even the seats are fixed. Before opening the store, the clerks put a sign on the location to reserve a good seat for the regular customers.

When old customers come, all they have to do is raise their hands to Huoji, and Huoji will shout, "Master Liu is here, it's the same as usual."

Then, in the bustling crowd, with the envious eyes of a large group of people looking for a place, Mr. Liu can come to his old place and wait for work to spread a clean linen cloth on the table. , placed the bowls, chopsticks, side dishes, and then sat down safely.

At this time, the waiter will definitely bring a pot of hot tea. This pot of hot tea is not for drinking, but for scalding dishes and chopsticks.

After the guest had washed the tableware with hot tea, his breakfast was brought to him by the waiter. At the same time, he also brought a cup of hot tea. This cup of hot tea was put into his mouth, gargled in his mouth, and spit into the table. Then he started to eat breakfast in the pottery basin.

He opened the bun with chopsticks to reveal the green leeks and eggs inside, and then said to the worker, "Just out of the cage?"

The guy responded: "I dare to fool you."

Then he nodded with satisfaction, and then ate happily.

It is because of these subtle treatments that many matchmakers, when asking about marriage, will ask if there is a special place for eating in the cafeteria.

If someone shows off his bamboo chips proudly, there is nothing to say. This must be a wealthy family in Chang'an City.

When the waiter saw the Marquis arriving with the young Marquis on his back, in order to improve his status in the canteen, he did not welcome the Marquis into the private room. Instead, he found the most conspicuous and cleanest place and settled Yunchu and his son. After asking clearly what the Marquis and his son wanted to eat, they shouted at the top of their lungs: "The Marquis wants two drawers of fresh meat buns and two bowls of millet porridge. The young Marquis wants a bowl of wontons, but no shrimps or coriander."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an enthusiastic response from the kitchen. Within a moment, a dozen side dishes to go with the porridge were delivered. At the same time, a new linen tablecloth covered the oily dining table. .

Yun Jin happily slid off his father's neck, and sat upright like a little adult. He enjoyed the envious looks from the children who came to have breakfast with their parents.

After the meal was finished, Yun Jin held his father's hand, looked up at his father and said, "Will you come tomorrow?"

Yun Chu smiled and touched his son's little head and said, "Okay, let's eat steamed noodles tomorrow."

Yun Jin said happily: "I want to add a piece of fried tofu."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "If you like it, it would be good to add an egg."

Throughout the morning, Yun Chu did nothing else but took his son to wander around Jinchangfang. When he returned home, he even bought a lot of books for Yun Jin, including a good-looking unopened one. Small horizontal knife.

When Yu Xiurong saw that Yun Jin was about to drown the child with the things he was carrying, he said angrily: "How can anyone spoil a child like this? This morning, people from Honglu Temple, Taichang Temple, the Shaofu Prison, and the Ministry of Household Affairs all came to look for my husband. But you have been playing with the child all morning."

Yun Chu smiled and put the book in his hand into Yu Xiurong's arms and said, "No big things are as important as me spending time with my son.

I have decided to spend the afternoon with my daughter. "

Yu Xiurong said, dumbfounded: "The big things are the most important thing."

Yun Chu picked up Yun Jin from the ground and put it around his neck and said, "This is my big deal."

Faced with her husband's childlike willfulness, Yu Xiurong didn't know what to say. But when Naha walked out of the inner house while gnawing sugar cane, yesterday's sadness could no longer be seen on her face.

"Why are you chewing bamboo? Are you a flower bear?" Yu Xiurong, who originally felt pity for Naha, suddenly became angry.

For such an old girl, it was really unseemly to walk and chew bamboo at the same time. The most important thing was to ask the little Tibetan girl with colorful patterns all over her body to help her hold the paper basket so that she could spit out the garbage.

Yun Chu grabbed Yu Xiurong, took the sugar cane from Naha's hand, broke it into several sections, tore off the hard outer skin with his teeth, took a bite of the sugar cane, and a familiar sweet taste filled his mouth.

After spitting out the residue, he asked Naha: "Where did you get the sugar cane? Is there anyone who sells sugar cane in Chang'an City?"

Naha took out another orange from her sleeve and handed it to Yun Chu: "There are also oranges, melons, grapes and many other things I don't know. I don't know the sugar cane you are talking about either. I only drank it when I smelled the sweetness." Mouth.

There is a room full of food, enough for me to eat for a long time. "

Yun Chu looked at Yu Xiurong and said, "Did you buy it for me?"

Yu Xiurong shook his head and said, "It's not me. I don't have the ability to get these fruits for her at this time."

Naha peeled an orange and ate a segment. Her nose wrinkled, maybe she felt it was sour, so she stuffed the rest into Dolma's mouth.

"It was sent by Li Hong. I saw the note he left."

Yun Chu took out his knife and helped Yu Xiu Rong, Yun Jin, and Yun Jin peel off the sugar cane skin, and the three of them could taste the sweet taste of sugar cane.

As for Li Hong, they had a tacit understanding and did not mention it.

Yu Xiurong thought that Li Si had been complaining about toothache in the past few days and had a stomachache all night, and immediately understood that Li Hong should have sent these things to Naha's embroidery building bit by bit through Li Si. After all, These days, Li Si has volunteered to be responsible for the sanitation and decoration of Naha embroidery building.

Just when Yu Xiurong was about to take care of Li Si, the child had already smartly brought the nuns and maids from the palace to fill Yu Xiurong's room with all kinds of fruits.

He also tried hard to explain to Yu Xiurong that it was not to deny food to the family, but to give Naha a big surprise.

Yu Xiurong didn't care whether it was a surprise or not. It was wrong for Li Si to stuff things into the inner house without telling her, and it was also her mistake as the mistress of the house. So, she pulled Li Si's ear and returned to the house to teach him a lesson.

People in the palace have long been accustomed to this scene.

As usual, Yun Chu ignored the affairs of the inner house. After chewing the sugar cane in his hand, he said to Naha: "Don't think about it. Chang'an can't grow this stuff. It seems that Li Hong has been collecting seeds everywhere over the years and has done a good job in the fruit business." , you can even get such unsophisticated sugar cane.”

Naha curled her lips and said, "It's all my money that I spent. Let him send more back in the future."

The day before yesterday, a friend from Gansu sent me a jar of farm meat. I was greedy and tore a big piece with my hands. The meat was really fragrant, but the oil was too big and my stomach couldn't digest it, which led to the interruption yesterday. Today, it's much better. I also wanted to eat jar meat, but my wife stopped me. The jar meat, fried in local pork and marinated for two months, is really delicious.
