"What kind of person is he?"

"I will know naturally when my sister goes to see her."

Under the cold plum tree in the west wing courtyard of Cui Mansion in Dongcheng, Chang'an, Cui Yan looked at his half-sister with caring expressions. Both of them were children who had lost their biological mother since childhood and had a very good relationship since childhood.

"I think Zhang Sanlang is an interesting person. Although he is not from a high-ranking clan and does not have a title as a lord, he is really good."

"I rarely hear my brother praise anyone like this." Cui Shisanniang chuckled with a big cloak in mink, holding a brass hand warmer stove in her hand, and said with a chuckling.

"Brother, tell me how interesting he is." She looked at Cui Yan with bright big eyes, curiosity about her fiancé.

"Zhang Chao and Zhang Wenyuan, the family called Saburo, was twenty-one years old this year. He was adopted by the monk Sanzang when he was young. Since then, he has been practicing in the mountains with Master Sanzang. He did not respect the master's last words and return to the secular world after Master Sanzang passed away this year. After going down the mountain, he met Zhang Tieqin, an old mansion soldier, and got along with him. He took Zhang Tieqin as his heir to succeed Zhang Tieqin. Well, he also had to accept Qin Qiong, Duke Yiguo as his adopted son."

"I had known Zhang Sanlang before. At that time, he brought yellow buns to Beijing to sell them, but he first promoted them to me who was guarding the gate. In fact, the yellow buns were good."

"It turns out that my brother has known Zhang Sanlang for a long time."

"Zhang Sanlang's yellow buns are very delicious. My father also met Zhang Sanlang because of this yellow bun. It was quite interesting. Cui Cong wanted to force Zhang Sanlang's recipe, but he got into trouble with Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, and Qin Qiong, and finally he had to apologize. He spent 100 taels of gold and only bought a yellow bun recipe, hahaha."

Cui Yan couldn't help laughing when he said this. He had never had a good impression of that father. In his father's eyes, his traitorous son was not even considered a son. In his eyes, only the Wang family who had a new line and several legitimate children from Wang family. Other illegitior sons had traitors and children were not even considered by him.

"I guess it was because of the loss that my father had the idea of ​​Zhang Sanlang. Wang's family had a great appetite for one thousand taels of gold. Even though he didn't expect that Duke Yi would actually give Zhang Chao this money to accompany him."

"But you don't have to worry. Zhang Chao is really good at making money. The yellow buns are now well-known in Chang'an City. His Zhang family is hot and now opens more than a dozen stores in Chang'an and surrounding counties, earning tens of thousands of dollars a day. In addition, soap is also the industry of his Zhang family, which is even more popular and highly sought after. A thousand taels of gold, even if it is just Zhang Sanlang's ability, it will probably take a few years."

"Brother, you know, I don't care whether the Zhang family has money or not, whether it is a wealthy family or not. I just want to marry a happy husband and grow old with me."

Cui Mansion Living Room.

Zhang Chao had been sitting for half an hour, and Cui Yan brought him in and left him. The maid from Cui's mansion came over to prepare tea and serve snacks, but he just didn't see the owner of the Zhang family.

"Where is Langjun Zhang?"

"Reply to the guest, the host has something to go out and has not come back yet, please wait."

Cui Shanfu disappeared, and no one came to entertain the other men of the Cui family, so naturally the female family of the Cui family would not come out. Zhang Chao wanted to leave several times, but waited for Cui Yan to come out. He was still thinking about meeting Cui Shisanniang, so he could only wait.

In the backyard of the Cui family, a maid was reporting to the Cui family's mistress Wang.

"Zhang Jiasanlang is very calm. He has been sitting for more than half an hour and has been patient and his posture has not changed. The tea and water he sent him, and he just touched his lips. He sat there without looking around. Even when there was no one in the hall, he always sat there calmly... If you don't know the details, you really think he was the legitimate child of a wealthy family."

"After all, if you have practiced with a monk for twenty years, you will still have the least temperament. If you only think he is an ordinary country house, then Duke Yi would not accept him as his adopted son. I heard that Zhang Sanlang not only became the adopted son of Duke Yi, but also had a very good relationship with Cheng Luo and Li Niu and other dukes. This child is not simple."

"Yes, we sell pastry and soap. During this period, the entire Chang'an City has been lit up by iron gun cards. It is said that the Zhang family's industry is making tens of thousands of dollars a day."

"If I had known that the Zhang family could make money so well, I should have bought more, but one thousand taels of gold was a little less." Wang did not hide his thoughts in front of his confidant maid.

"It's the cheaper boy of the Zhang family, a country farmer, can even marry a wealthy daughter."

"Forget it, it's cheaper. It's better to marry that girl out early, so you can save all day under your nose and feel upset." Wang said coldly.

"By the way, what's the reaction of Thirteen Niang these days?"

"Nothing unusual, as always."

"She is aware of her. This matter has been decided and she can't let her make trouble. You should also pay more attention and stare at her carefully. Don't make any trouble at that time. Now the bride has been accepted. When the day is chosen, you will be waiting to get her out of marriage."

"Yes, we'll watch."

"Oh, that dead girl looks soft, but she is also a stubborn temper. It's so unreasonable to fight for the dowry left by her mother who died prematurely."

"It's all thanks to the Zheng family's support."

"You use snacks to win over the farms under the Zheng family, and the shopkeepers are in charge of the business."

Zhang Chao waited in the mansion for a long time, but he still didn't see Cui Shanfu back or Cui Yan's person, so he was a little impatient.

"Where is the toilet, I want to make it easier."

After hearing this, a maid took Zhang Chao to the toilet. Although the Cui Mansion was large, the toilet was arranged in the corner of the courtyard, just like many families. However, the Cui Mansion had an inner and outer toilet, and the owner and the servant were separated.

The toilet in the Cui family is pretty good, a well-decorated house, and there is no sign of the toilet inside outside. When you open the door and go in and out, it still smells fragrant inside and does not smell any strange smell.

After a few careful glances, I found that the toilet in the Zhang family was very luxurious. A toilet bed was placed in the middle of the house, and there was a wooden barrel under it. It looked like a high-end toilet. The toilet bed was actually a large toilet. There was a wooden barrel under it. I had used it once, so I immediately took it out and sent it to a special feces room to pour it out, so that it would not affect the air in the toilet.

"Okay, you can go out."

After Zhang Chao looked around, he was about to untied his clothes and go to the bathroom, but the two young girls in the room were still standing there.

"If you go back to the guests, we are here to serve the guests in the toilet."

I'll go, what kind of service is this?

Even in a big hotel in later generations, the toilet waiters would at most hand over towels in the bathroom outside, so they would stay by the toilet.

How can you get it like this?

"You guys go out first, I'm not used to it."

The two maids looked at each other, nodded, and then brought a plate of red dates to Zhang Chao.

Zhang Chao was stunned. The Cui family also provided snacks when going to the toilet. When the girl saw Zhang Chao being stunned, she quickly signaled with her hands that it turned out that the red dates were used to stuff their noses.

Zhang Chao was glad that he didn't eat it, otherwise he would have lost his hair today.

He picked up two dried red dates and stuffed them into his nose. Then the two girls went out.

"Call us after the guests are convenient."

The feeling of sitting on the toilet bed is like sitting on the toilet. Without the dirty smell of the dry toilet of the Zhang family, Zhang Chao was a little dazed when he closed his eyes, as if he had returned to modern society.

However, when the ceremony was finished, Zhang Chao immediately returned to reality.

Without toilet paper, this place is still not a convenient future generation.

However, the Cui family is a wealthy family after all, and the toilets are rich in configuration. Although there is no straw paper, they have toilets ready for use.

On the edge of the toilet bed, a small wooden box was opened and the pieces of smoothly-cut toilet chips were installed inside.

It is like small wooden slips, and it is a bit like a large popsicle stick. I took one and shaved it on my face. It was smooth without any burrs. It was a carefully crafted top-quality product at first glance.

Unlike in the countryside, many people just get some hay, leaves, or even branches to deal with it.

There is no straw paper, I miss the breeze and my heart is in harmony.

In Zhangjiagou, Zhang Chao cuts toilet chips by himself, just like the countrysiders peel chopsticks when they are fine in winter. Fortunately, Zhangjiagou is not short of materials such as wood and bamboo. If you take some time to do it yourself, you can protect your chrysanthemums from harm.

But when I look at Cui, I just enjoy going to the toilet. There is no smell, no mess, and no maggots and flies.

However, even the Cui family can only use wood chips to scrape chrysanthemums.

Zhang Chao remembered that he read a news in later generations. A group of archaeologists dug up a bunch of bamboo slips with words inscribed in them. He was extremely excited. Who knew that later he found out that this was a toilet pit. Those bamboo slips were actually used by people at that time to wipe their butts. Some useless old slips were used to make toilet sets. I really don’t know how those archaeologists faced those bamboo slips after they learned the news.

Maybe I should make some straw paper myself, not to mention anything else, just to make my chrysanthemums more carefully protected in the future.

The door was pushed open, and the two girls came in again. This time, each of them was holding a basin of water and a cloth towel.

The service was good, Zhang Chao exclaimed and started washing his hands.

Then he found that the Cui family actually took out the expensive soap, which cost 6,000 yuan. The Cui family was like this. After washing their hands, Zhang Chao came back to the living room without the same way.

He remembered Cui Yan said that he went to the West Courtyard to meet Cui Shisanniang.

"Just go and take a look."

Zhang Chao thought about it and turned around and walked towards the west courtyard.

Cui's mansion is very large, with multiple doors and multiple households, and several more progressive.

However, there were no people on the west courtyard. Along the way, Zhang Chao encountered no trouble and easily entered the west courtyard. The west courtyard was the residence of the eldest lady from the Cui family, but because the Zheng family is now in the Zheng family, it is usually much deserted here.

Zhang Chao walked through the moon gate, walked through the garden, and then passed through a moon gate, and entered the courtyard inside. As soon as he came in, Zhang Chao saw Cui Yan sitting next to the stone table under the wintersweet tree.

Opposite him, a woman wearing silver marten fur and black hair sat opposite her with a handwarmer holding a handwarmer, with her big eyes bright and smiling like a peach blossom.
