Chapter 177: Add some spice to life
"Yang Biao!" Early in the morning, Ye Jihan came to make trouble for him. He went to Qingfeng Pavilion and found three rabbit gods to visit him.
Last time, in order to prevent Mr. Zeng from getting his wish, Huo Yijing impulsively redeemed Hong Yan, but he did not dare to bring her home. The first person he found to take her in was Ye Jihan, but unfortunately his wife was not someone to be trifled with, and she kicked him out of the house in front of Ye Jihan.
Although Huo Yijing had four concubines, he still had deep feelings for his original wife. He was afraid that his wife, who was about to give birth, would be upset, so he had no choice but to bring Hong Yan to find Yang Biao.
"This is the tea poured for me, both of you, don't move..." Seeing those three grown men who behaved more femininely than women, talking in a pinched voice about who should drink a cup of tea first, Xia Weiwei, who was sitting next to them, felt her eyebrows jump and got goose bumps all over her body.
"Hongling, Jinrong, Qiuyue, the three of you pour tea for them at the same time." There are still many such people on the Internet in modern times, and Yang Biao is no longer surprised.
Since they all want to compete for first place, then there is no order and we will do it for them all at the same time.
"Ye Jihan, why did you bring these three 'lovely brothers' here?" Yang Biao saw his ill intentions. This was the legendary bad friend. He felt that his life with his wife was not exciting enough, so he came to add some spice to it.
"Hey..., it's been a while since I last came to your place. Today I brought some friends to meet you and have some fun together." Ye Jihan's face, which was hit, was still swollen, and he looked particularly creepy when he smiled.
"Yeah, it's really lively now." The three rabbit gods over there were still arguing fiercely about whose seven-armored armor was better looking, and they were almost about to start fighting.
"Madam, please come to our silk shop and tell us some things." This person is so boring, there is no need to treat him as a human being.
"But..." After all, your roommate is visiting your home, so you still have to follow the most basic etiquette of hospitality, and it's not easy for her to leave early.
"It's okay. Leave this to your husband. Go and do your thing first." Yang Biao pushed her out and carried her onto the carriage before returning to the hall to settle accounts with Ye Jihan.
"Hello, all of you. I have something to do at home today, so I won't keep you here." The most urgent thing was to get these weirdos away, or to spend some money to avoid disaster. As soon as Yang Biao entered the door, he stuffed ten taels of silver into each of the three rabbit gods.
"Well, I tell you, we will come to your place to play again next time." The three people who got the silver and acted awkwardly left with satisfaction, shaking their buttocks.
Well, there won’t be a next time. Next time these three people can step into his house, his name will be written backwards.
"Yang Biao, listen to me..." Seeing the murderous look in his eyes, Ye Jihan quickly ran away when he realized the situation was not good.
He and Yang Biao have been roommates for more than three years. He knows this man too well. He is not as gentle and harmless as he appears to be. Once he becomes ruthless, even ghosts and gods are afraid of him.
Yang Biao did not chase him, but let him run away. Beating someone is not as good as scaring him, and it is easy to scare him away, not to mention that he is his friend.
"Yang Biao, who was the person who came to see you just now?" Yang Biao went to Hong Yan's room. She was practicing calligraphy and heard the noise coming from outside.
"Oh, it's one of my roommates." He walked to Hongyan's side and picked up a piece of paper with words written on it. It said: Therefore, it is said that the people of a region are not bound by borders, a country is not secured by the dangers of mountains and rivers, and the world is not intimidated by the power of weapons. Those who are righteous have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous have few supporters. When there are few supporters, even relatives will betray them. When there are many supporters, the whole world will obey them.
These are the contents of the three chapters of Mencius. He was very curious. Isn’t it said that girls in ancient times learned to read and write from the books such as Nujie and Nuhong?
"What did you learn when you started learning to read?" He was very curious about what girls in ancient times learned at home, so Yang Biao asked directly without being ashamed to ask.
"Study the Confucian classics, such as the Analects of Confucius, the Book of Songs, the Book of Filial Piety, the Book of Rites, as well as music, calligraphy, and painting." Although she didn't understand why he asked this question, Hong Yan still answered truthfully.
"Oh," he thought that girls in ancient times really believed that women's virtue lies in their lack of talent, and learning to read was a female commandment, internal training, etc., and they only learned skills such as embroidery and women's work. But he was narrow-minded, and he didn't expect that girls in ancient times also learned a lot of things.
"Are you hungry?" Yang Biao saw that she had already written a lot of papers. It was already noon, and Xia Weiwei had not come back yet. She must have eaten outside.
People always say that the smell of fireworks is the most soothing to the hearts of ordinary people. Today, I am in a rare mood, so I will cook for myself.
"Come on, help me wash the vegetables." Yang Biao pulled her to the kitchen and asked her to help him.
"Yang Biao, what do you want to eat?" Hong Yan looked at the kitchen a little at a loss. There were so many kinds of food neatly arranged on the shelves that it seemed as if she had stepped into a colorful treasure trove of ingredients. Does this wealthy family's kitchen store so many fresh vegetables every day?
"Well, let's have braised prawns today..." Yang Biao went to pick up the fresh prawns. When he estimated that the amount was enough for a dish, he handed it to Hong Yan and asked her to clean it.
"For lunch, let's make four dishes and one soup!" He planned to have two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. According to this idea, he looked for ingredients on the shelf. His eyes swept over the spare ribs. He thought that spare ribs have the functions of nourishing yin and strengthening yang, replenishing essence and blood, and paired with kelp, which contains selenium and can delay aging, he decided to make spare ribs and kelp soup.
Life is smooth, doing things is fun, tasting is enjoyment, cooking is delicious food, and eating is healthy.
There is smoke in the kitchen, warmth in the home, and care in the heart. These are also the happiness that Yang Biao wants to pursue throughout his life.
"Weiwei," Liu came to the silk shop to find her, and seemed to have forgotten the unpleasant incident between mother and daughter last night.
"Mother, do you have any kind of silk that you like? Go around and look around and choose." When Xia Weiwei heard her voice, her brows unconsciously frowned.
"Well, mother likes this, and that..." Liu picked out silks in light pink, blue, brown, and purple in one breath. She wanted to use them to buy autumn clothes.
"Well, Shopkeeper Yan, please help my mother pack up the selected pieces of silk." Xia Weiwei didn't even raise her eyes as she continued to flip through the account book and calculate with the abacus.
"Daughter, please come back tonight and have dinner with your mother." Liu went over and shook her hand which was calculating with an abacus, hoping that the child could accompany her.
"Mother, please take your hands away first. Are you tired today? Go over there and have a cup of tea for a while, okay?" Xia Weiwei pointed to the back room of the shop and motioned for Shopkeeper Yan to lead people over. "Wait for your daughter to settle these accounts."
