Chapter 10 The Royal Carp and the Cow of Cheng Yaojin's Family

Mr. Pei frowned and remained silent.

Wei Zheng was confused and his face was stiff.

Outside the door, something heavy seemed to fall to the ground.

Bang!

Then a rough voice came: "Little shopkeeper, tell me, what kind of meat is used for Dongpo meat?"

Who is this voice if it's not Cheng Yaojin?

Behind Cheng Yaojin stood a man with a darker complexion. He looked like he had been exposed to wind and sun for many years, and his face was covered with ridges and grooves, but he was extremely hale and hearty.

"We spent so much money, and you actually gave us pork."

"Little shopkeeper, what do you mean?"

There is a saying in Chang'an that the royal carp bites the Jin family's cattle.

This means that there will always be one or two less carp in the royal family. No one in the world is allowed to eat carp, but who eats the ones thrown away in the palace?

The laws of the Tang Dynasty stipulate that beef is not allowed to be eaten. After all, cattle are tools and indispensable for people's farming. If beef is allowed to be eaten, will the cattle of the Tang Dynasty really be enough to eat? Only cows that died of illness or accidents seemed to be reported and could barely be eaten.

Cheng Yaojin's family often reported to Chang'an County that their cattle seemed to be of poor breed or the feng shui of the cattle shed was not good. They always went crazy, fell ill, and even jumped from upstairs.

The Chang'an County Magistrate couldn't understand why the cows went up to the third-story attic to look at the stars.

He didn't dare to think about it either.

Only now did Liu Xuan see clearly what had fallen to the ground. They were two huge axes. The cold light shone. The moon was bright tonight. Not long after the sun set, the moon secretly crawled out from the clouds.

The sharp blades of the two axes shone on them, sending chills down the back.

When Da Zhuang saw the axe, he was a little obsessed: "Master, the ax can chop wood."

Liu Xuan waved his hand: "Dazhuang, those are the guests' things, we can't take them."

Liu Xuan slowly walked over, picked up the two giant axes, and looked at them in his hands. The ax blades were extremely sharp and still neat. At first glance, they looked like peerless weapons. There were also some pitted lines on the axes, which seemed to be It was left with holes by other weapons during the war.

Yes, it's a good thing.

"Guest, your weapons."

Liu Xuan handed it to Cheng Yaojin lightly without noticing that at this moment, the faces of Cheng Yaojin and the dark-faced man behind Cheng Yaojin began to twitch.

"Little... shopkeeper..."

The voices started to get louder.

Liu Xuan smiled and held his hands towards Cheng Yaojin: "There are so many delicious things in this world. Pork is both fat and thin, and there are many ways to make it. It's a pity that the Tang Dynasty is known as the Celestial Kingdom, and there are chefs everywhere, but they don't even know how to cook pork. There’s no way to make it taste better, which is a pity.”

"Dongpo Pork is a recipe I created myself. What do the guests think? Is it delicious?"

Cheng Yaojin swallowed.

Cheng Yaojin wasn't angry at all, mainly because he had a loud voice.

At that moment, he saw Liu Xuan's seemingly frail and scholarly body, and he picked up the two mountain axes in his hands lightly, without even taking a breath.

For a moment, Cheng Yaojin's heart trembled a few times.

In order to show off, he hired someone to make these two axes and kept them at home, taking them with him when he was drinking and bragging. But on weekdays, Cheng Yaojin didn't even want to touch these axes.

Without him, an ax weighs eighty pounds.

Wei Zheng was stroking his beard and looking at everyone with a smile: "Hey, Lao Cheng, you're here too, I'm going back first, the curfew is about to begin."

Wei Zheng pulled Ms. Pei, carried the packed box, turned around and walked outside.

Wei Zheng had just taken a few breaths when he heard the sound of drums on the street.

After three hundred blasts, it will naturally be curfew time.

Yaya climbed out of the crib at some point, got behind Liu Xuan, and looked at Cheng Yaojin holding the axe, with tears in her eyes: "Ah, he is so scary..."

Cheng Yaojin licked his face, put away the ax in embarrassment, and grinned: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, hehe, it scared the kid."

Today when I was bragging with Yuchi Gong, I accidentally knocked him down after mentioning a glass of wine. Yuchigong was naturally unconvinced and threatened to drink three hundred glasses. The two of them took the ax and the money and went out to show off tonight at the Datang Hotel.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin put the ax aside: "Little shopkeeper, please have two of your two dishes today."

"Let me have a bottle of wine first. I haven't had enough fun today..."

While Cheng Yaojin was speaking, he had already taken out the money bag and put it into Liu Xuan's hand.

Liu Xuan took the money bag, handed it to the two of them, and then entered the kitchen.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong saw Liu Xuan entering, and then their heads came together.

"Did you see that he is born with divine power?"

"It's so strong. I saw that boy picked it up without any effort. It's scary. It's scary."

The corners of Yuchi Gong's mouth trembled: "Fortunately, we were born early. Such a person would have been just another Qin Shubao at our time."

"But Lao Cheng, I'm not telling you, don't your family members say they don't eat pork? Why suddenly..."

Cheng Yaojin waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, Yuchi Gong, don't talk nonsense or spread rumors."

"I don't eat those unpalatable pork. In the early days, have you forgotten, we were so hungry that we stole a pig from someone else's house? Good guy, although it was just to satisfy our hunger, I vomited for half a month. "

Just as the two of them were looking at me and I looking at you, a milky voice came.

Yaya stood on the bench, with her hands on her waist, staring at the two people with vigilance: "Are you... here to bully Aye?"

Yuchi Gong was stunned, fumbling in his sleeves for a long time, and finally took out a box. This is the little toy he bought for Yuchi Baolin today, and there is a rattle inside.

"Little sister, we don't look like bad people. We are here to give you a gift."

Dongdongdong... Dongdongdong...

When the rattle sounded, Yuchi Gong thought that the little girl would put away her vigilance and jump happily. After all, his own children are like this.

But Yaya just took a look and turned her head away: "Aye said that you can't take things from strangers."

Cheng Yaojin smiled and stroked his beard. Not bad, not bad, the little girl has personality. This father and daughter are not simple.

One is a little devil who is not tempted, and the other is obviously full of supernatural power, but is willing to be a cook.

If such a talent is obtained by Zuo Wuwei, wouldn't it be... Now is the time when Datang is short of talents.

...

"Oh? You two are here too?"

The voice outside the door almost made Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong stumble.

The person who came was none other than Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty... Master, why are you here?"

Li Shimin looked outside the door and said with a smile: "I am a little dissatisfied today, I want to eat something good, is that not okay?"
