Chapter 1863 Stop and fight 21

The snacks in the palace are much more exquisite than those outside, so those who are rewarded naturally need to work harder. The steamed buns are all made into the shapes of goldfish and little rabbits, which are very vivid.

Seeing Liu Lu staring at her, she almost drooled.

Xining only felt funny: "If you want to eat, just take one."

"Hey~" Liu Lu stretched out her big hand with plump sausage-like fingers, but was patted by Tao Hong before she even touched it.

"The county master hasn't eaten yet." Taohong looked at Liulu reproachfully: "Don't be unruly."

"It doesn't matter." But it seemed that Liu Lu wouldn't be able to eat it if she didn't eat it. She sat up, took one at random, and bit into it, which was filled with red bean paste.

Seeing her eating, Liu Lu quickly took a little rabbit as if snatching it away, threw the whole rabbit into her mouth, and chewed it a few times: "The stuffed bean paste tastes similar to the one made by the second aunt. Such a small one, It can only be stuffed between teeth. Second Aunt’s red bean paste buns are better, they are much bigger, there are many fillings inside, and they are very delicious.”

The second aunt smiled and said: "What I cook is not as good as the one in the palace. Look at how delicate it is. Don't eat it either. All these are for you to eat. It's not enough for you to be half full. It will hurt the county boss." I don’t have to eat either. I’ll make red bean paste buns for you to eat.”

"That's a good relationship, thank you second aunt." Luliu was happy as long as she had something to eat.

The second aunt went to the kitchen to make red bean paste buns. Liu Lu sat on the small stool next to her and dozed out of boredom.

Tao Hong, who was learning to embroider, accidentally embroidered two wrong stitches, making the originally ugly pattern even more ugly. I tried to remove it, but it still looked ugly. He was so angry that he threw away the embroidery hoop and stopped embroidering.

Look at Liu Lu again, with her eyes closed and her mouth open. If she goes back to sleep, her saliva will almost drip down.

I was so angry that I pushed it with my hand: "Hey!"

"Ah~, are the buns ready?" Liu Lu woke up with a start. Well, she still wanted to eat them in her dream.

Before Taohong could curse, Liulu sniffed greedily: "Well, it smells so good."

The incense in the room was now stronger, and the smell became more mellow.

"This is a reward from the Queen Mother, of course it's good." Taohong rolled her eyes at her: "Now that the village owner is already the county owner, you are so lazy and can't help yourself on the table. You can forget about it in the house. Don't go there. It’s embarrassing outside.”

"Oh~" Liu Lu didn't argue. Anyway, for her, as long as she had food and drink, she was very relaxed.

Xining seemed to be reading a book, but actually he was thinking about other things. The emperor has been canonized. When will the marriage be granted?

But for her, it was a good thing that the imperial edict granting marriage had not been issued. Mu Hanqing did not like the owner of the body, and they would get bored with each other after they got married. They wanted to end the marriage as soon as possible before the edict was issued. It would be best for her to regret her marriage to Marquis Zhongyong. Anyway, she is the county head now and doesn't want any man. The officials' sons and daughters can be chosen at will, let alone the merchants.

Soon it was night, I had dinner, freshened up, and lay down to sleep. After a hard day, I was already tired, and the day passed so quickly.

After staying in the house for two days, Xining said he wanted to go shopping. I have regained my lost energy, and I will be bored to death if I hide in the house again.

Liu Lu was naturally happy when she heard that she was going to take to the streets. However, Taohong didn't seem very happy. After all, she had to order someone to prepare the car, prepare clothes for the county lord to wear on the street, food for the journey, and...

Looking at the hat on the table, Xining couldn't help but smile: "No need for this."

Taohong explained patiently: "Your Majesty, noble ladies must wear this when they go out. And the County Lord is so beautiful that she cannot be peeped and coveted."

Rolled his eyes: "Then don't wear nice clothes, just ordinary clothes. I'm going to the streets, not looking for trouble."

Although Taohong was very unhappy, she couldn't go against her idea. So Xining walked out arrogantly wearing the robe and pants she wore in Black Tiger Village, a belt around her waist, and her hair tied into a man-like bun. If Taohong hadn't stopped her, she would have planned to ride a horse.

After getting on the bullock cart, Taohong was still chattering, saying that this look was too eye-catching, and which county chief wore it like this.

"Okay, let's stop talking." Liu Lu, dressed in the same Jianghu style, and with a "burly and strong" figure, filled a corner of the carriage. His face was full of impatience: "Isn't this good? It's comfortable and free, and you're not afraid of getting dirty or bad. As long as you live comfortably, why do you need to live for other people?"

"That's right!" Xining heard the great music and patted Liu Lu's generous shoulder: "Liu Lu is the one who knows me."

"County Lord, you..." Taohong was so angry that she almost gave up her job.

"Call me the village master!" Xining shook his head, wiped his smooth hair with his hand, and raised his head slightly: "There are thousands of county masters, but I am the only master of the Black Tiger Village."

"Yes, call me the village leader." Liu Lu also raised her head, and the back of her head almost hit the carriage: "The village leader is so domineering, he sounds much better than the county leader."

Tao Hong was speechless, the county magistrate was appointed by the emperor, so she was a noble daughter enjoying a salary. Okay, okay, dad said, if you can persuade me in the past, just do it. If you can't persuade me, as long as the village leader is happy.

The capital has always been a good place. From the previous dynasty to the previous dynasty, the capital has been the center with the most developed economy and culture.

There are many wine shops and singing and dancing everywhere. It is common to see nobles who are extremely well-dressed, and the people on the road have long been accustomed to it. Everyone has a love for beauty, and when they see someone with good looks, they will naturally look at them more.

When Xining and his entourage got out of the car, they immediately attracted a lot of attention. There are also people from all walks of life in the capital, but they are relatively few. There are even fewer women wearing men's clothes. When traveling in the world, they try to avoid government officials. Almost all women dress like ordinary people. If they are carrying weapons that cannot be hidden, they will cover their faces with a veil or a hat.

And he is probably the first person to act so openly.

In previous missions, I also went shopping. But in order to complete the task, or because of the limitations of the environment, I didn't have the full enjoyment every time. It's rare that I have money and time, so I naturally want to go shopping and see all the shops in this era.

As long as you see something you like, buy it!

This ink, paper and inkstone is a complete set with bamboo on it. The military advisor loves bamboo the most, so I bought it as a gift to him.

Candied haws? Bring a few skewers and eat them as you go.

There's roast duck with honey sauce over there, it seems famous. Here's one, save it for dinner.

There is actually a grease cleaner, kitchen knife, and scissors. I bought a few and gave them to some masters who cleaned weapons.

Snails soaked in butter! This is a snack made of milk and honey, similar to ancient cheese. Come and have a few portions for everyone to try.

After half an hour passed, the four brothers following behind them all carried large and small bags in their hands, and they could hardly hold them anymore. As for her and Taohong Liulu, they were holding candy figures in one hand and eating rice cakes in their mouths, and their fun had not diminished.

When Liu Lu saw the front, she immediately called out: "Zhao Zhu, I heard that the powder soup and soap cake there are very famous. Go buy some and try them."

Taohong glanced at Liulu reproachfully: "You're still eating. How much have you eaten? The village leader can't even eat dinner."

"It doesn't matter, the worst thing is I won't eat it." Xining also wanted to try it. Anyway, she only needed to take one bite and throw the rest to Liu Lu.

"But..." Taohong hesitated, and finally said: "I don't have much money left."
