People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

As we said, Fucheng has many rivers passing through the city.There are many rivers and many bridges, and Yangzhou Prefecture has the reputation of 24 bridges.

The second floor of the wine shop is facing the arch bridge, and there happens to be a pair of young people on it.

"Erlang, do you think your family can accommodate me?" The woman looked up at the man and said shyly.

"Of course I will. I'm not married, and you're not married. You're still so virtuous. If I hadn't been lucky, I wouldn't have found her with a lantern!" The man touched the woman's tender hand and blurted out sweet words.

"You are really a good gentleman!" The woman snuggled into the man's elbow.

……

Cui Boyan couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene, "Love is so good!"

After saying this, I suddenly remembered that Cai Xiaolan was still sitting across from me, and I felt bad.This is wrong.If you praise others well, wouldn't you be happy with your own wife?
He quickly glanced at Cai Xiaolan and saw that she was still looking out the window.He probably didn't hear what he just said.

"Bo Yan, how old are you this year?" Cai Xiaolan suddenly asked a very simple question.

"Eighteen, isn't it the same age as you?"

The ancients used to count down one year of age.

"I have a few words to take care of you, please remember it. I don't recognize joint property of the family, I only recognize joint property of husband and wife. I have already taken care of it with Tofu Shop and Babao Zhai. You go and ask for it. They’ll give you what you want.”

Cai Xiaolan spoke concisely, and she knew in her heart that neither Tofu Shop nor Babaozhai could be kept.How about taking this last chance to let Cui Boyan see the cruel truth of patriarchy again.

Cui Boyan felt very happy when he heard that Cai Xiaolan was going to transfer both properties to him. He finally no longer had to be caught in the middle.

"Xiaolan, you should have done this a long time ago! Don't worry, our family can still become rich again when my father becomes an official again."

Cai Xiaolan drank a few more glasses, and suddenly her expression changed, "Bo Yan, I have to go to the bride's room, you eat first!"

Cui Boyan nodded, "Go ahead!"

He was very satisfied with Cai Xiaolan today, this is what a wife should look like.He would ask for advice from him when something happened, he could even have wine with him, and he would even hand over his family's property to him.

He had been waiting upstairs for two cups of tea, but no one was there, so he couldn't help but panic, "Is something going to happen to Xiaolan?"

He was about to leave, but was stopped by the waiter at the stairs, "Sir, please pay the bill before leaving!"

"I haven't left yet. I just went to see my wife. She went out for a while and hasn't been back for a long time. I'll take a look."

The waiter smiled and snorted coldly, "My lady has left with the donkey cart a long time ago! If you want to leave too, don't I have to pay for the food for your table?"

The waiter's voice was loud, and the customers upstairs all looked over.What's terrible is that when the waiters downstairs heard the news, they all gathered around.

If there are guests who want to escape, that won't work.The shopkeeper will ask all the waiters to bear the losses together.As long as they skip an order, all the guys will work for nothing for three days.

Cui Boyan didn't know the situation yet, so three or five people gathered around him.

"Brothers, don't panic. I, Cui Xianggong, am also a well-known person in Yangzhou City. Don't say that I will run away." Cui Boyan immediately guessed that Cai Xiaolan might have really left.She knew that she would never bring money to her teacher's house, so she deliberately used this trick to vent her anger.

When the guys heard that this man was a tribute from the countryside, they immediately behaved themselves.There is a smart guy who has already gone inside to invite the shopkeeper.

Cui Boyan touched his pocket and found it was indeed empty.I was confused, "How can I do this?"

"Cui Xianggong, otherwise, you can leave something slightly valuable and go back to get the money to pay the bill." A waiter thought of a way for him.Cui Boyan shook his head and smiled bitterly. He had nothing valuable on him.

"Tell us where your residence is, and we'll send someone to run for you." A waiter came up with another idea.

"That's great. My home is in Tianfu Jucai Residence outside the city." Cui Boyan introduced himself.

After hearing the address, several of the guys' expressions changed, and they pulled each other behind to discuss it.Cui Boyan couldn't hear what everyone was discussing, but the attitude of these people towards him was completely different from before.

"Cui Xianggong, we were rude just now. When you finish eating, you can leave first. When you are free, just hand over the money for the meal." The expression of the waiter who looked fierce just now changed.

Cui Boyan was surprised that after he reported his family, everyone became polite.

"Dude, what—"

"It's all our fault. Mr. Xiaolan's family can't afford a meal!"

"Why are you calling Mr. Xiaolan?" Cui Boyan didn't understand.

"We all know that she was the first to report the flood, the gathering place in the west of the city, the earth dragon in winter..." Those hard days, so many things, not to mention the people who have been helped by Cai Xiaolan, just haven't accepted it. Those who help will also admire her character.

Cui Boyan didn't expect that Cai Xiaolan would already have a great reputation.

"Okay, I'll go to Xicheng Tofu Shop to get the money first, and I'll send the money back right away!" Cui Boyan is thin-skinned and cannot owe others.Cai Xiaolan happened to have said that she had contacted two shops, and Cui Boyan was also the owner.

Since you're the boss, it's not too much to ask for food money.

This wine shop is closer to Li city.Of course, Cui Boyan would not sacrifice the near for the far. It didn’t take long for him to arrive at the Babao Zhai.

The tea doctors in the shop had never seen Cui Boyan himself. When they saw the young master coming in, they separated one person to greet him.Introduce him to the various furnishings on the first floor.

"These are actually night pearls?" Cui Boyan was horrified!

"It's guaranteed to be fake!" Seeing that Cui Boyan didn't believe it, Dr. Cha called the others to close the windows.

As soon as the window was closed, the light of the lamppost was visible.No one lights the lamp but it keeps lighting up. What is it if it’s not a luminous pearl?
"My surname is Cui, I am Cai Xiaolan's husband. Come and put some money on the counter!"

"Ah!" Xing Yuru saluted immediately, "I have met Mr. Cui!"

"But we don't have any money in this shop, you can get money at the tofu shop in the west of the city." Xing Yuru told Cui Boyan.

"Ah?" Cui Boyan was surprised now.

"It's true, the boss said that a lot of money was spent on the renovation. It was all borrowed from the bank next door. We agreed at that time to use the revenue to pay off the debt directly."

Cui Boyan looked around and believed Xing Yuru's words. Just the luminous pearl in the pillar would cost a lot of money.

"Okay, you get busy first. I'll go to the tofu shop and take a look again!"

Cui Boyan made another trip to Xicheng.This trip went very smoothly, with Xu Yinlian in charge of the account, he easily took two hundred dollars and went to the wine shop to exchange the money for the meal.

The shopkeeper also specially wiped off the change.

On the way back, Cui Boyan kept thinking about a question: why Cai Xiaolan was recognized by the people but not Cui Le. (End of chapter)
