Chapter 1153 New Year's Eve
As soon as the two of them saw Jiangdu City, Xia Bing told Xin Han that it was a man and a woman who could not get along with him, for fear that it would be bad for people to see him, so he asked him to go down and lead the donkey.
Xin Han didn't mind either, hehe, took the reins and headed straight to Jiangdu City Gate.
In many novels, experts must have the demeanor and reserve of experts. The so-called idol burdens are like Ximen Chuxue's coolness, Ye Gucheng's arrogance, and Xin Han have also seen them personally.
However, he did not have the awareness of a master at all. His century of travel made him more casual, like those cynical immortals who played in the world, and had a natural and unpretentious mind (actually, he was used to being funny).
When they arrived at the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city asked a few questions and let them go. After all, this place was outside the Great Wall. Foreign tribes and Han people lived in mixed relationships. They still had trade exchanges on weekdays. If there was no war, they would not be too strict.
Although the bitter and cold outside the border is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, there are people coming and going in important towns in this border area, and it looks quite lively.
Xin Han grabbed a passerby, asked the direction of the inn, and after thanking him, he asked casually: "Is Jiangdu City so lively?"
The man seemed to leave in a hurry and said, "It's New Year's Eve today. The market will be open all day, and there will be no one in the evening. By the way... You are a scholar and call me elder brother. I would like to remind you, don't go out at night!"
As the man said this, he hurriedly left, letting him sit on the dark clouds and the somewhat suspicious Xia Bing screamed a few times without looking back.
Xin Han said in surprise: "Is it New Year's Eve today?" Since he traveled, he has only remembered the spring, autumn, cold and heat, and the seasons have changed. It has not been the New Year's Eve for a long time.
"Hey, why don't you hold him back? Ask what's going on!" Xia Bing muttered to Xin Han in dissatisfaction. The latter was leading the donkey and looking around at the excitement, not listening to what she was talking about.
When I arrived at the inn, I saw a man with a knife on his waist and handed the horse to the waiter: "Help me feed the horse and arrange a room for me!"
The guy smiled and said, "Master, please go to our shopkeeper and pay the deposit!"
The man turned around and said, "I have even left the horse. Do you have no money to give it to you!"
Xin Han also led Wuyun Gaixue over and threw the reins at the servant: "Help me feed these two things, and arrange a room for me!"
"Two rooms!" Xia Bing shouted, jumped off the donkey, and gestured at him: "Who do you think is the donkey?"
The two of them were quarreling and walked into the inn, and the guy caught up from behind: "Can you pay some deposits for the two guests?"
Xin Han's son's style was like the one who had been before, and said, "The donkey has been left behind. Are you still afraid that I will be robbing my debts!"
Xia Bing raised his eyebrows: "That's right, remember to feed the donkey more forage and beans, otherwise we will be irresponsible if it causes a murder!"
After saying that, he ignored the bitter look of the guy's face, and rushed to Xin Han who had already walked in front of him and asked in a low voice: "Do you have money?"
Xin Han glanced at her and said in surprise: "Didn't you treat me? Where did I get the money!"
"You are so good...I don't have money either!" Xia Bing said that, and then he had already let his voice go very low.
Xin Han smiled and said, "Then let's wait until the bill is paid!"
The first floor of the inn is a restaurant, with more than a dozen shorter tables on both sides, and some preludes are placed. This is the seats of this era.
Because it was New Year's Eve, there was only a pot of mutton soup left in the kitchen. In addition to mutton soup, there were also some vegetables and radishes.
The guy said embarrassedly: "Thank you, please forgive me, this is the only thing left for the New Year. The chef has made soup for you and went home for the New Year. You can deal with it!"
Xin Han saw that the things he brought had no appetite. Not only did he smell the mutton smell, but he also had a fishy smell. Obviously, the mutton offal was not handled carefully. If this thing was not done well, he could eat rice fields. He didn't want to try it.
He said to Xia Bing: "I'm not hungry, I'm just a little sleepy. I'll go to the room to rest first, you can eat it yourself!"
When Xia Bing saw what he had eaten, he didn't have the time to pay attention to him. He picked up the chopsticks and competed with eating and drinking.
When Xin Han returned to the room, he took out a few plates of hot three-fresh dumplings, dishes, and two bottles of good wine from the space. How could he not eat some good food to reward himself? As for dumplings, he wanted them even more.
He was halfway through the food when the door was suddenly kicked open. Xia Bing hurriedly walked in with the demon-seeking bottle.
Xia Bing pointed at the bottle: "It's bright...it's bright, there are monsters in the river!"
Xin Han burst out laughing: "Is it so exaggerated? Look, is it fireflies flying in!"
Xia Bing beat Xin Han in anger: "Where are fireflies coming from such a cold day!"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly saw the colorful and fragrant wine and food in front of Xin Han, and immediately fried it: "Oh, you are a student, you actually eat alone!"
I forgot about the bottle, so I put the demon-seeking bottle aside, picked up a chicken leg and started eating it. Then I grabbed Xin Han's chopsticks, picked up a dumpling and put it in my mouth. Suddenly my eyes lit up, and then: "Mmmmm" vaguely pointed at the plate of three fresh dumplings and shouted.
Xin Han took out another pair of chopsticks and said impatiently: "Swallow it and talk about it!"
Xia Bing swallowed the dumplings and chicken in his mouth in a few bites, and shouted, "What kind of cake is this? It's so delicious!"
Xin Han knew that in this era, cakes refer to noodles, and even noodles are called soup cakes, but he still didn't like it: "Biu, you big-headed ghost, do you know this is dumpling!"
The era of dumplings has not yet been revealed. It was more than a hundred years later that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the miraculous doctor Zhang Zhongjing revealed the prototype of dumplings in order to keep people from getting cold, so Xia Bing naturally had never seen them.
She took several large mouthfuls in a row, then she let out a breath with the aroma of dumpling filling, picked up the wine pot on the table and took it directly, then looked even more shocked and pointed at Xin Han and said:
"You are so unfaithful. You are so delicious and delicious, you actually stole food by yourself!"
Xin Han ate on his own and said disdainfully: "You just slap me yesterday, and today I came to grab the food again, so I'm so embarrassed to say it!"
Xia Bing's face turned red, then stood up and flipped his waist and said, "I paid for my clothes yesterday, but today I paid for my horse... No, I have to change my horse like you to eat ten meals... No, I'll change twenty meals, don't think about silly!"
Xin Han was too lazy to tell her that she had a look similar to the Empress, and she was shameless to eat.
Put down the chopsticks, picked up the demon-seeking bottle that was lighted on the table, and glanced at it: "Are you sure that it's really not a firefly flying in?"
Xia Bing then remembered the serious matter and immediately sat down and snatched the bottle: "Ying Ying, you big-headed ghost, didn't I say that there are monsters in Jiangdu City? Do you know that just now..."
It turned out that the man was Pang Yong before. The wife of the city guard came to find Pang Yong before and was talking about the monster. There was also a heart-digging swordsman in the city at the same time. Xia Bing suspected that he was also a fairy.
When Xin Han heard that the plot was similar to the movie, he immediately shook his head, got up and headed to the bamboo couch beside him, thinking that he would just catch the beautiful fox of Jiuxiao when he turned around!
Seeing him lying down, Xia Bing looked at the food on the table and shouted, "Hey, I'll eat it if you don't eat it anymore, I'll eat it all!"
Xin Han looked at her angrily: "You have eaten all... pig! I'll sleep for a while, remember to finish eating, and close the door when I leave!"
Xia Bing reminded while eating: "If you have any old rules at night, call me loudly, remember not to go anywhere, I will cover you!"
Xin Han turned over, turned his back to her and muttered, "Do you think you are the sun? Still shining on me, take care of yourself!"
He thought it was pretty good, but when it was midnight, he was lying on the couch and was about to close his eyes to transport his blood when suddenly the door was knocked open. Xia Bing, who had just eaten and drunk, had returned and rushed in, pulled him away!
"Come with me!"
Xin Han said in anger: "Are you crazy? Do you still let people sleep well!"
