"Canised haws--"

"Selling coal... don't do it, hate it..."

Just after the end of the year, the red lanterns have not yet been removed between thousands of streets and hundreds of yards in Chang'an City.

On Hutai Street, Ning Qingye, who had just come out of the martial arts hall, picked up a few full-grained candied haws on the candied haws piled on the street with a snow-white sword.

Behind the street, the iron claw gate where Zhu Manlong was originally in charge has now changed its sign, with the four big words "Juejian Villa" written by Xu Buling. The gold-plated sign is shining brightly under the warm winter sun.

The sword saints Zhu Liu and Li Hansheng stood side by side at the gate to see him off. Next to them were tourists from Jianghu who came to become disciples shoulder to shoulder. Even the owners of several other martial arts halls lined up in the crowd, hoping that they could be given a few words from two martial arts kids.

Ning Qingye's expression was as cold as usual. After waving goodbye, he turned around and walked out of the imperial city with a few strings of candied haws.

Chang'an City is very big. With the change of dynasties and the introduction of the new policy, many envoys from small countries outside the pass also rushed to Chang'an City after hearing the news and met with the new emperor of the Celestial Kingdom. Foreigners can be seen everywhere among the neighbors, and the atmosphere of "all nations come to pay tribute" is very strong.

Ning Qingye carried the "Buling Sword" given to her by Xu Buling. He first went to Qingshi Lane of Dayefang, bought two pots of broken jade burnt, and then came to Zhuangyuan Street.

Directly opposite Longyin Pavilion, the original jade shop has been renovated and has been renovated.

There is a sign hanging on the restaurant, with the words "Liuzhou Snail Noodles" written on it, and the handwriting is also written by Xu Buling. The decoration of the restaurant is more grand than the Longyin Pavilion opposite.

Unfortunately, the three-story restaurant was silent, and there was no customer, and only saw the neatly dressed waiter standing in the hall in a daze.

Chen Sining, wearing a water blue long dress, sat alone at the entrance of the restaurant and doubted his life. Two little snakes were hanging on the side of the flower bed at the door, basking in the sun.

Ning Qingye walked up to him and shook the candied haws in front of Chen Sining in the daze:

"Sining?"

"Um?"

Chen Sining came to her senses and thought the guest was coming. Her eyes were delighted, but after seeing that it was Ning Qingye, she continued to look at the street listlessly with her chin and complained:

"Qingye, do you think there is something wrong with the taste of people in Chang'an City? Such delicious food is only sold for five cents a bowl, and no one comes to the door. I have cheated out all the private money of Manzhi. If I can't make a profit this year, I will not be scratched by her..."

Ning Qingye raised her eyebrows. Although she couldn't do business, she knew how to do it.

In the prime location opposite Longyin Pavilion, it costs no less than ten thousand taels of silver to buy it. This is because the owner has to give up his love because of the royal family. Let alone selling snail noodles, even if he opens a brothel, the girl almost loses her appearance.

However, the industry belongs to the Xu family, so there is no need to pay rent. It is also left to leave. It is no big problem to make Chen Sining enjoy it, but it is obviously impossible to get back the money.

Ning Qingye was not easy to hit Chen Sining, so he just sniffed:

"The snail noodles smell bad. They just opened. Diners don't know the details and dare not come to the door."

"well……"

Chen Sining pursed her lips. The business failed and she felt that she couldn't raise her head at home. However, the diners didn't come to her. She couldn't hold the person hard into her mouth. She could only get up and pat her skirt, walk back with Qingye, and looked at the sky with a little confusion:

"Qingye, don't you practice until dusk every day before going back? Why did you go back so early today?"

Ning Qingye shook his head and smiled: "Today's Lantern Festival, Xu Buling said he wanted to draw a family portrait. He had to go back early to prepare."

Chen Sining suddenly realized, nodded, and looked at Chongningfang:

"Did Manzhi go to work as an office today? Do you want to call her?"

Ning Qingye spread his hands slightly, feeling helpless:

"The branches passed by on time for a few days, but after two days of being the Lord of Heaven, I found that I knew nothing, so I would sit on the Grand Master's chair and drink tea and nod. I was afraid that I would be laughed at and would not be able to pass after I had nothing to do, so I said, "Big people cannot show up easily."

Chen Sining understood, curled her lips and smiled, and returned directly to Kuishou Street with Ning Qingye.

Behind the three large archways on Kuishou Street, there are many residences of kings, princes, generals and ministers. There were not many merchants at the beginning, but now there is an "artshop" in the center of the street, which specializes in teaching the rich daughters of chess and dance music on the street, so the owner is naturally Zhongli Chuchu.

Compared with the restaurant where Chen Sining is ignored, this art shop is much more popular.

Half of the wealthy families on Kuishou Street were illegitimate, and they dared to block Xu Buling’s door back then. Now Xu Buling has become the current crown prince and occasionally comes to pick up people. They flock to see Xu Buling, and can stay from the early morning until the art shop is closed. It is also an important social means for wealthy families to play together. The wealthy families on Kuishou Street naturally have a tacit attitude towards these.

Chen Sining came outside the art workshop and saw that there were carriages and sedans parked outside, and she couldn't help but feel envious in her eyes.

Ning Qingye greeted the nanny in charge. Soon, Zhongli Chuchu, wearing a red dress, ran out from inside and waved his hand to say goodbye to the daughter of Kuishou Street.

Chen Sining looked up and said softly:

"Chuchu, you're leaving, who will teach them to dance?"

Zhongli Chuchu walked in front of the two of them, looking a little embarrassed:

"What can I teach? I originally wanted to teach them, but there were too many people and I couldn't teach them, so I asked my husband to call two palace dancers from the palace. The result was so good. The professional ones made me embarrassed to go on stage and learned them all together."

Zhongli Chuchu is a self-taught master. When it comes to dancing skills, she is definitely not as good as the musicians and dancers in the palace who specializes in teaching palace maids to dance.

Seeing this, Ning Qingye smiled and comforted her:

"It's better if someone supports you, it's better than Sining's opening until now."

This is indeed quite comforting Chuchu, and the price is Chen Sining autistic on the spot.

Zhongli Chuchu knew Ning Qingye's straightforward temperament and said with a smile:

"The snail noodles made by Si Ning are fine. We all love to eat them, but they just have their fame. After a few days, Uncle Li, Uncle Zhu, and Xu Buling will come over to have a meal every morning, and then let the whole branch spread the news, saying that contemporary Wu Kui can eat this to greatly increase his skills, and he will surely even cut off the threshold of the shop."

When Chen Sining heard this, her eyes lit up:

"Can you still do business like this?!"

Ning Qingye raised his eyebrows: "It's obvious that this idea was made by your master."

Zhongli Chuchu smiled: "Yes. My master was afraid that I would ruin my husband's money, so he planned to do it like this. As a result, before he could use it, the threshold of the art shop was trampled to pieces..."

The three girls talked and laughed, walked back to the streets together, and had been changed to the Su Palace, which had been changed to the "Xu Mansion". Although the large plaque was changed, Qingkui's small sign was still hung on the side door.

Shortly after the New Year's Eve, the big red lantern outside the mansion had not yet been removed. The maids and servants came in and out. Old Xiao moved a small stool, held a crutch in his hand, and sat outside the gate drinking tea and talking jokes:

"...I remember when I was walking in Chu, I accidentally met the young and energetic swordsman Situ Yuejin. As the saying goes, "The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road." I went over and called "Sun Thief". What do you think?"

There is a small tea case and a wheelchair on the big red lantern.

Zhu Manzhi was wearing a small skirt and was sitting next to a wheelchair and ate melon seeds. He heard this and said a little disdainful:

"You still need to guess this? Who in the world doesn't know that you were chased by Old Situ for seven hundred miles, and chased from Jiuyi Mountain to Yueyang..."

"Hi! How can I tell you to chase and chop? That old man didn't even touch the corner of his husband's clothes. I walked him for seven hundred miles..."

...

On the wheelchair, the tall and graceful woman was wrapped in white bandages all over her body and leaned against her like a mummy. The only thing she could move was her big, full of spiritual eyes.

The white eagle stood on the back of the chair, listening to the jokes carefully, and from time to time, he also 'cuckled' at the woman, as if he said 'Look at others, and then look at you'.

Zhu Manzhi felt the same way, and at this moment he looked at the woman and joked:

"Xiao Shier, look at Lao Xiao, and you go to find trouble for Daokui. If you don't say anything else, you will at least be sure to get out of here. You're fine. You ran out without saying a word and hid for two years. You wanted to hit my husband when you came out of the mountain. I'm fine now? I have to feed you all. If I didn't think of you calling me sister, I would have to teach you what the 'stealing world' is."

Little Peach Blossom, who has grown into a big girl, is much taller than Manzhi, and is comparable to Chuchu, and her figure is even more exaggerated. When Xu Buling came back that day, when Zhongli Jiujiu was cured, he even said, "Put milk branches."

This joke made the broad-minded and full of energy so angry that it would hit Xiao Taohua if it was done.

Xiao Taohua sat on the recliner and couldn't move, but just blinked and hummed:

"I gave in to your husband and didn't do anything ruthless. Who knows he is not light or heavy? If I had known, I wouldn't have stopped."

"You are just stubborn. Just like you, you are not suitable for practicing martial arts and traveling around the world. It would be great to have children at home and take care of them..."

Zhu Manzhi knelt melon seeds, her eyes were sour. Seeing that Ning Qingye and the three sisters came back, she quickly looked like an elder sister and waved with a smile:

"I'm back? Si Ning, how is the business today? How many bowls of noodles are sold?"

Chen Sining didn't want to speak, so she walked to the steps silently, held the wheelchair and pushed it into the house:

"Don't you want to draw a family portrait? Go in quickly."

Ning Qingye handed the candied haws to the branch.

The candied haws were taken and eaten in front of Xiao Taohua!

Little Taohua leaned against the wheelchair, her eyes moved, and she said hesitantly:

"Sister Si Ning, I'll bask in the sun outside. You can just go and do it."

Zhongli Chuchu smiled and said with a smile: "On the left, you have entered the door, can you still treat yourself as an outsider?"

Ning Qingye also nodded: "Yes, even the position of Xiao Shier has been set. If you don't enter the door, will Manzhi become the youngest?"

"Hey-Xiao Ning, if you can't speak, just say less, it's so sad..."

...

Several girls pushed the wheelchair into the gate of the mansion.

The atmosphere in the back house of the Xu family was also lively.

In the garden of the back house, Lu Hongluan sat in the pavilion and asked Xiao Xianger to help tidy up her hair bun.

Xiao Qi has already removed all positions and is a little woman peacefully. Now she has changed her old-fashioned outfit, put on a palace skirt similar to Xiang'er, and lighted rouge with a bronze mirror.

The garden outside the pavilion is full of peach blossom trees, and the peach blossoms are in bud.

Xu Yi, who was almost three years old, was running around in the garden with a rattle holding a rattle.

Cui Xiaowan held the hem of the skirt and looked fierce, chasing around the peach tree, and said from time to time:

"Don't run away! I'll hit you if you run away, I'm very fierce..."
