The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 463 Taking advantage of the situation (3)
Yang Yan smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch her face, but shook his head firmly and said: "No! If you want to drink, let's go back and drink, and you are not allowed to drink outside. Have you forgotten what you said at the banquet today? What if you meet someone To an acquaintance, what do you say?"

An Ran immediately lost face, knowing that her brother was right, she could only nod her head. "Then go back later and brother will drink with me."

Yang Yan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Okay, drink two cups before going to bed, it will help you sleep."

Seeing the smirk on his face, An Ran couldn't help but blush.

The food came out quickly and tasted really good.It seems that the signboard of Tianxianglou is still worthy of its name.The small whitebait is served quickly, the braised crucian carp is slower, and there are no snow clams.

There are people in the boxes on both sides, it seems that there are quite a few people, and the sound of persuasion and laughter is very lively.Jianlan frowned and said: "Master, slaves go over and ask them to be quiet?"

Yang Yan shook his head, the meal must be lively to enjoy it!They usually talk when they eat.What's more, everyone is the same when they go out to eat. If you use force to oppress others to stop joking, and it just breaks the mood of others, what's the point?
Halfway through eating, Ling Yun suddenly came in and whispered something in Yang Yan's ear.

Yang Yan looked at An Ran and nodded to Ling Yun.After Ling Yun went out, An Ran asked him with his eyes, what happened?
Yang Yan shook his head, with the smile still on his face.

There seemed to be more people in the box next door, and it was always lively.It sounds like a group of scholars, talking about the Guozijian for a while, and the Voice of the Sui Dynasty for a while.Of course, these scholars focus more on the transfer of policy officials in the court.For example, Li Shangshu returned to the mansion to be honored, Qian Shangshu took office, and His Royal Highness Ping Wang was in charge of the official department. They all discussed a few words, and even talked about General Qian, the general of the town who was far away at the border.In his tone, he admired both King Ping and Qian Rui.

After a while, An Ran was almost finished eating, so the shopkeeper came up again and brought a cup of stewed snow clam with pear and lily.

It was a real surprise.An Ran was very happy, took a sip, and immediately nodded in agreement.

The shopkeeper was also happy to see that the princess liked it.He was about to leave, but Yang Yan suddenly said: "An Ran, it's rare for you to come out once, since you like it, why don't you leave a note for Tianxianglou, and ask shopkeeper Li to reserve a box for you."

Shopkeeper Li was a little puzzled. King Ping asked the concubine to leave a note to book a box.He had never heard of King Ping bullying others.Of course, he is a smart person, so he would not express his doubts in his heart. Instead, he said with a look of surprise: "It's our Tianxianglou's honor to keep Madam's calligraphy! Prepare the Four Treasures of the Study."

Yang Yan nodded, and the shopkeeper went out.An Ran looked at Yang Yan suspiciously, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, brother?

Yang Yan chuckled disapprovingly and said: "Think about it carefully, what kind of words should you write to shopkeeper Li. This box requires a reservation fee of 1000 taels of silver a year. You can't make shopkeeper Li feel bad. Confession."

At this time, the sound of persuading them to drink in the box next door seemed to have stopped, and it was so quiet that people were not used to it.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone in the box next door say loudly: "I just want to book the Tianzi box in Tianxiang Building with just one word, am I right?"

Immediately, someone echoed, "Brother Meng heard it right, and my younger brother heard it too. The one who wants to leave a note is still Madam!"

"Ha, this is really the best joke of the year!"

"I don't know which one is bullying others! Hmph!"

"Why is this so difficult? Let's go to the door and see later, don't you know?"

Only when An Ran heard this did she understand her brother's plan.

At this time, shopkeeper Li ordered the Four Treasures of the Study to be delivered.Shen Yi had finished her meal early and came over to serve her. Naturally, she would not allow anyone to go in and bump into An Ran. She just took the little girls to tidy up the tables inside and put out the Four Treasures of the Study in person.

Hearing what was said in the box next door, Shopkeeper Li smiled awkwardly, and said, "Master, Madam, don't take it to heart. It is our honor for Madam to leave calligraphy in our Tianxiang Building. Those outsiders understand what?"

At this time, Shopkeeper Li has come to his senses.His Royal Highness Prince Ping has a high reputation among the people, and he is almost the best candidate for the crown prince.Then, this princess Ping will be the queen empress in the future.With the words that the empress specially left for Tianxianglou, they naturally won't lose money.

An Ran looked at Yang Yan and asked, "What should I write? How about a couplet?"

In this era, there is no custom of pasting couplets on the door.However, in various academies, pairing has been rising for many years, just like teaching schoolchildren to compose poetry, it was only a kind of cultural enlightenment at the beginning.

According to Yang Yan's guess, the time-traveling senior Mr. Wuji before them was probably from the Ming Dynasty, and many of his habits have the style of the Ming Dynasty.However, this time-traveling senior has a very high moral cultivation, at least he has never plagiarized any literary works of his predecessors, which makes Yang Yan feel a little ashamed every time he thinks about it.

Mr. Wuji brought the perfect three provinces and six departments and the imperial examination system in the Ming Dynasty, as well as innovations in furniture, clothing, marriage customs, food and other aspects of life, but did not embezzle the splendid culture of later generations to add luster to himself, which made Yang Yan, a younger generation To be able to pretend to be a genius.

Yang Yan thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's fine." Couplets are also a kind of culture, let him advocate it!

Shopkeeper Li didn't quite understand what this couplet was, so he couldn't help being curious.

Yang Yan explained to him: "Simply speaking, the couplets are couplets, pairs of pairs. The couplets are simple and meaningful, and the antithesis is neat and harmonious. Shopkeeper Li can engrave it on the red lacquered pillar outside the gate, which is also a pair of pairs. The promotion of Tianxiang Building."

It turned out that he hung the pair outside the door to attract people to come in. Shopkeeper Li nodded, feeling a little anticipation in his heart.Since King Ping asked the princess to write, the princess should be able to read and write, right?If the writing is too bad, King Ping will let him hang it outside the gate again, it will not only embarrass Tianxianglou.

The slightly better shops An Ran visited in her previous life all had couplets, so she grabbed a pair of simple and practical ones casually, and wrote down: "Spring, summer, autumn and winter flow continuously throughout the year, and guests feel at home from all directions."
