The group lived in the quiet town for three days. After the carriage was repaired, Zhang Ruyi couldn't wait to ask to go on the road.
Their destination is Licheng, if the servants go back quickly, it is very likely that her uncle will be informed of the news of her trip.
The official ship turned over, probably made her uncle very anxious, right?
Although Zhang Ruyi is heartless, she still cannot avoid worrying, and Lan Yi doesn't know if she has caught up with Ji Qiu.
"Don't worry, Ji Qiu is working in Licheng, so he has left a place to stay. When we arrive, we will come to find someone directly."
On a hot day, sitting in a carriage is also a torment.
In order not to waste time, the group of people stopped and stopped, and it took a total of five or six days to arrive at Mucheng around Licheng.
Sleeping in the mountains for five or six consecutive days, several people discussed and stayed in Mucheng for a day to rest and recover from fatigue.
Traveling in mountains and rivers on the road is an ideal state, but the actual situation is quite bad.
The carriage was shock-absorbed, but the bumps were still unavoidable, so Li Haitang could only add a few layers of thick cushions under the seat.
The bumping problem was solved. After a few days, the bottom of the buttocks was almost so hot that it was so hot that I couldn't complain.
At dusk, smoke billows from every household, and on the street, there are only pedestrians rushing home.
Li Haitang changed into a light-colored dress, got rid of Zhang Ruyi and Lu Er, who were bothersome, and followed her savage husband to find a restaurant for dinner.
Mucheng is next to Licheng, a small city with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Walking on the street can give people a strong cultural atmosphere.
It is said that scholars in Mucheng like to write poems and essays the most, and many talented students are all natives of Mucheng.
The Taibai Tower that the couple went to was definitely a must in Mucheng.
A little girl with a flower basket in her hand walked to the door of the restaurant, not daring to enter, looking at all kinds of people in the restaurant with longing in her eyes.
"Little sister, how do you sell flowers?"
The guy took a break from his busy schedule and saw the little girl at the door with bright black eyes and plump cheeks, who was very cute, and his tone softened unconsciously.
"One penny and two flowers."
The little girl spoke very quickly, and pointed to a woman in a gray cloth dress opposite the restaurant, "My mother said that these flowers are all varieties from the south, and they were cultivated with great difficulty."
The people in the Northland are simple and honest, not as arty as the people in Kyoto. Everyone saw that the flowers were blooming just right, and the flowers were fragrant, and they praised a few words, but no one cared.
A few flowers bloom and fail in a few days, so what's the use of buying them? It's better to buy two thick noodle steamed buns for a penny, and I'm still very hungry.
Li Haitang was sitting by the window, staring at the flowers in the basket, her heart was beating wildly. This was clearly a fiery red rose that symbolized love.
It's just that she doesn't know where the flowers come from. At least, she hasn't seen such varieties in the north.
"I want this basket of flowers."
Xiao Lingchuan stood up, walked to the door, handed the little girl a small silver coin, and took the flower basket directly.
He lived in the mountains and was used to seeing wild flowers and weeds, so he didn't feel any difference.
Xiao Lingchuan observed his words and expressions, and saw that his wife's eyes were full of longing, so he bought it without hesitation.
Li Haitang rubbed his forehead, the action of the savage husband was too neat, if he hadn't given the little girl money, he would have acted like a robber when he stepped forward to take the flower basket.
After receiving the roses, Li Haitang was elated and kept smiling. Putting the flowers on the right side of the bowl and chopsticks, smelling the fragrance of flowers while eating, she raised her head proudly at the envious looks from others.
"Guest officer, Taibailou is most famous for its Taibaijiu, why don't you two have a taste?"
The dishes have just been served, and the young man came over to introduce them graciously. Even an ordinary duck can be traced back hundreds of years ago.
Li Haitang felt that what she ate was not duck, but history.
"Guest officer, you don't know that our Taibaijiu is only available in Taibailou. In other places, we don't sell it for how much money you give, and we can't take it away if you don't finish it."
The buddy is boasting, how many literati in Kyoto, in order to taste fine wine, traveled thousands of miles and traveled long distances.
"Look at the wall, and all the inscriptions are left by literati."
The young man introduced while talking, but the couple are not scholars, so they are not interested in it.
"Guest officer, in fact, the charm of our Taibaijiu is not only in this."
Seeing this, the boy changed his strategy and pointed to a painting on the wall, "This is the treasure of our Taibai Building."
It can be vaguely seen in the painting that it is a beautiful woman in white gauze swinging on a swing, but it seems to be covered with fog, making it difficult to see her true face.
Even so, just looking at her body, you would think she is a beautiful woman.
"Drink Taibaijiu, you can really see the beauty!"
Even the most beautiful woman in Daqi would feel ashamed in front of the treasured painting of the town store. How many literati would never marry after seeing the painting, and mistakenly see it for life.
"Of course, your husband will definitely not."
The guy tried his best to sell Taibaijiu, and the people around kept applauding, Li Haitang was a little moved.
Everyone has a curiosity-seeking mentality. Taibaijiu, is it really so good?
"I saw the beauty's face, it turned out to be real!"
Taibai Building is too popular, and the private room upstairs needs to be reserved, and a group of people only come, so they can only sit in the lobby.
The scholar next door stood up from the chair, walked unsteadily to the corner, and gently stroked the scroll with his hands, as if he was gentle to a lover.
"Guest officer, take a look, Taibaijiu is ten taels of silver for a pot, you can't buy it to lose money, you can't be fooled..."
The man's lips fluttered up and down. In order not to be disturbed while eating, Li Haitang yelled, "Stop!"
"Serve a jug of wine."
Throwing the money over, she was relieved to see the buddy left. Indiscriminate bombing, this is really unbearable, otherwise, the food will be cold after a while.
Taibailou is very elegant, and the jugs are all made of silver, with a few red gemstones dotted on them.
The color of the wine was yellowish, and the taste was pungent. Li Haitang felt his stomach twisted and then became confused after taking a sip.
She glanced at the picture of the beauties, and found that looking vaguely, she seemed to be really beautiful.
"Lady, the alcohol content is too high."
Xiao Lingchuan took the wine glass and served his wife some food, this little trick tricked his wife.
Li Haitang is a mystery, sometimes shrewd, sometimes confused, if not in public, he really wants to hold her in his arms and lick her red lips.
Not to mention Taibaijiu, Taibailou's dishes are indeed unique. Take the sweet and sour meat as an example. It is golden in color, evenly coated in juice, crispy and slightly sweet, sweet and sour, which makes people appetite. Li Haitang I killed a plate by myself and ate a round belly.
"Husband, I ate too much, let's go outside to digest food." Li Haitang was a little dizzy, she supported Xiao Lingchuan's arm, and moved step by step. During this time, her savage husband reminded her to pay attention to the steps under her feet.
