Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan rode horses to stroll, there is a special horse path, next to a low flower bed, the middle of the two horse roads is a lane, and the other side of the flower bed is a sidewalk.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan simply can't eliminate the transport force of livestock, there are very few tractors, they are only used to transport people who are qualified to go to and from work, bicycles can be done, the problem is that steel is reluctant to be used in this area, and animal power must be allowed to exist.

The two rode military horses, and there were other pedestrians, there were horses, donkeys, and mules, donkeys, mules, and horses and mules.

The two didn't know that when they were strolling, the entire Datang telegraph system had not been idle since this morning, and Zhang Xiaobao promised Li Longji last night that he would get married on the 26th of the first month of the New Year, and the news was spread.

Anyone who gets the news in the capital, no matter how many times they have changed their contacts, will immediately spread the news that Xiaobao and Juan Juan are going to get married.

The whole Datang was crazy, and when the two of them came out in the afternoon, all the major towns in Datang posted this matter on the official bulletin board, and then people began to pass it on to more remote places.

There are people with rich families who have already begun to prepare congratulatory gifts, no matter how far the distance is, they are ready to ship immediately, and they will definitely be able to transport the goods to the capital when they get married.

Ordinary people in some county towns have already found someone to start discussing whether to collect money to buy things to congratulate Xiaobao and Juanjuan.

It took more than an hour for Zhang Xiaobao and the two of them to come to the west of the capital, which belonged to the former outside the city, and now it is also a place where people with relatively little property live.

But there are no bungalows, the land resources in the capital are too tight, and the shortest house is a two-story house, not upstairs and downstairs. Below each room, there is a staircase for one family, so as to reduce the number of noisy fights between neighbors.

Today's weather is not bad. It was not as cold as in the northeast, the sun hung unobstructed, a little westerly, and there were few people in single clothes on the street. Otherwise, a small breeze blows by, and it is too cool.

At the moment, it is a westerly wind, about three levels, which can blow the guise of the shops and liquor shops on the street next to it. There are also flags belonging to the Tang Dynasty, which were not available before, but now basically every family is ready. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan specially designed it. It's a jigsaw puzzle-like dragon, otherwise it's troublesome to make.

There are special places for sale, there are also their own embroidery, and even painted with dyes, many of the national flags are not standardized, but this does not affect the love and support of Datang people for Datang.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan saw a baby wrapped in such a cotton flag, held by his mother and standing next to a liquor store. Chat with another woman while waiting for a drink.

The two don't think that the woman's behavior is a desecration of the national flag, if the weather is too cold and you can't find anything to keep warm, it's okay to burn the national flag to keep warm.

The two people who didn't disguise themselves had a lot of guards around them, holding guns, blatantly protecting, and whenever the people of the capital saw them, they always waved and nodded excitedly, and the two of them returned the salute, without even speaking.

"This kind of casual peace is the most intimate love." Zhang Xiaobao turned over and dismounted, and said to Wang Juan, who came down.

"People are afraid of affecting our business, let me think of two poems, don't worry about the road ahead without a confidant, who in the world doesn't know you, that family's noodles are good, smell the smell and feel fragrant, go eat two bites, but unfortunately there is no taste of chili oil, wait for two more years, it would be good if there were more chili peppers."

Wang Juan sniffed and looked at a three-story noodle restaurant with hot air floating over, and the word 'fire' was clearly written on the cover, but now it is selling Zhenzi noodles.

Zhang Xiaobao clicked his mouth twice, thinking that he could still eat something, and followed Wang Juan over, their horse was naturally in charge.

"Yo, Xiaobao and Juan Juan are here, what are you eating?" The guy was very welcoming, greeted the two people with a smile, and replaced them with people who didn't know the situation, and thought that the guy had met a frequent guest, but in fact, the two came for the first time.

The guy didn't cry bitterly, nor did he shout and hug up, it was a very simple greeting, but the guy's legs couldn't control the trembling, his eyes were bright, and he kept swallowing saliva.

Obviously, he tried not to make Xiaobao and Juan feel uncomfortable, and if he didn't let go, it was estimated that the two would find an excuse to leave.

There were not many people on the first floor, and after dinner, there were only two tables of people, and they turned their heads at the same time to take a deep breath, but they did not stand up.

"Two bowls of noodles, if you want mutton soup, it's best to have a clear soup, don't add mutton, you want a single portion, don't put the noodles hard, don't put them on the plate, my wife and I have eaten it at noon." Zhang Xiaobao was indeed very comfortable and was not watched.

The man took a rag and wiped the table next to the window: "Okay, you two sit here." ”

After speaking, you didn't shout to the back, but turned around and ran in and arranged it yourself. Another guy immediately came over to check the aged vinegar on the table, shook it, and found that there was not much left, so he changed it with the vinegar bottle on the table next to him, and stood next to him ready to serve at any time, and did not forget to explain.

"There are few people on the first floor, I stand wherever I stand, can't they eat?"

It was the guards who walked in generously when they asked, and the guards did not hide their purpose at all, carrying their pistols and looking around.

Whether it was the guys or the people at the two tables eating, they didn't think that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were putting on a score, if there were no guards, they would be worried.

The guards had just chosen a place to sit down, and two more people came in outside, and they were just about to speak to the guys, when they suddenly froze, looked at the guards with guns, and then turned their heads to meet the eyes of a man and a woman there, one of them gabagged, took a deep breath, and finally spoke.

"Xiaobao, Juan Juan, you, you two are here too?"

"Yes, you smell it, there is still room in your stomach, and then pad, what do you eat?" Zhang Xiaobao said with a smile.

"Two bowls of mutton noodles, more chopped green onions and coriander, a little bigger oil, a plate of fennel beans, and a serving of sweet garlic." The man shouted at the guy, and nodded to Zhang Xiaobao: "Let's go to that table to eat." ”

Zhang Xiaobao raised his hand to compare the painting, which means that you please.

The two sat down, and in less than three minutes, the face came up. There are also fennel beans and sweet garlic, as well as four dishes, the smallest one, a garlic cucumber, a salted eggplant, a pickle, and a boiled salt bean.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan waited another five minutes. The noodles were brought out by the guy who had just entered, and he explained while putting them on the table: "The master was resting just now, and I called him up, and he personally took it." ”

That's what I mean. If you want to eat, you can eat what the master chef makes. Zhang Xiaobao expressed his understanding, picked up the chopsticks and stirred in the bowl, the bowl was quite large, but there were not many noodles. Although it is a clear soup, there are still oil flowers floating on it, and the green onion is only white. The coriander foam is also emerald green.

There was a shirtless man at the two tables before. Stretching his neck to look at the things Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan playing, he smiled and said to the guy: "It's not me to pick and choose, you look at the green onion and coriander in my bowl, compared to what Xiaobao and Juan eat, it is obviously older, and the hard pole of coriander is stunned." ”

"Yo, that's not what I meant. I'm thinking that you have good teeth and chewy food. The guy replied with a smile.

"Dare to say that Xiaobao and Juan have bad teeth, and you should be punished, Xiaobao, where are you two going?" The man joked and asked Zhang Xiaobao again.

Zhang Xiaobao took a lot of noodles in his mouth, squeaked and sucked a lot of it in his mouth, and after biting it off, he swallowed the soup and hissed, took a long breath comfortably, and said to the man: "Go to the west to see the terrain, where is it suitable for building a new railway station, a railway station in the capital is too busy, where is the old brother busy?" ”

Zhang Xiaobao introduced his purpose, and asked about the other party's work, he didn't need to say what he did, I believe the other party definitely knows.

When the man heard this, he was happy: "Really? Great, I am a person who can directly get benefits, I pull my feet, look at the marks on my shoulders, my family lives in the west, usually run around a trip is too far, at night can not meet the east station to the west of the goods, empty run, tired, tired, tired, the road is not close, and there is no money to make, aggrieved, should have built a station in the west, no one in the court to do, fortunately you come back. ”

"The imperial court is actually already making plans, and the two of us are coming back to speed up, and Your Majesty is very supportive." Zhang Xiaobao is not good at saying bad things about others, so he can only explain it like this.

"Yes, yes, I know." The man was not stupid, he understood what he meant, nodded his head, turned around and continued to eat, they asked for a lot of noodles, and wine, and six cold dishes, no hot dishes, no dishes, there was a plate of bones without much meat, it was estimated that the guy exchanged it for a saucer, it seemed that they were not going to work in the afternoon.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan glanced at each other, very emotional, there are still rules in the catering industry today, restaurants must be on the plate, even if it is a roadside tea stall, you have no money, in the past, when you come to a bowl of water, people will also make you a bowl of tea foam, no money, but you bring your own tea leaves, you must give money if you want water, there are rules. It can also be said to be a moral tradition.

A bowl of noodles, the two of them ate quickly, and drank a small half bowl of soup, and a big bowl was really unfinished.

got up to settle the bill, the guy said a two-penny penny, Zhang Xiaobao didn't ask, let the guard pay for it, and said to the guy: "In the future, the bone marrow will be knocked out and put on a separate plate, otherwise it will be boiled and boiled together in the soup, and the taste will not be drunk. ”

"Yo, can you still eat like this? Our little treasure is really powerful, listen to you, I will tell the owner when I turn around, benevolence and righteousness. The guy knew that he was charging less money, Xiaobao and Juan Juan understood, but instead of making up the money, they gave a dish, which was much more than the less money.

Seeing the two of them walking out, the guy asked: "Xiaobao and Juanjuan, are you really married on the twenty-sixth day of the first month of the New Year?" ”

"How do you know?" Zhang Xiaobao asked in surprise.

"It's all rumored, the telegraph office hasn't been idle since the morning, and we still want to get together, and I guess others are also preparing." The guy has determined from Zhang Xiaobao's words that it is really the twenty-sixth day of the first month.

"Yes, that day." Zhang Xiaobao didn't say much, and when he came outside with Wang Juan, he showed a worried look on his face.

"Let's put it in the newspaper, tomorrow's newspaper, send it out early in the morning, don't let them buy things and send them, the freight is not cost-effective." Wang Juan can imagine what the final result will be if he doesn't say it in the newspaper.

"It's really impossible to tell them, charge them ten cents per person, we will use our family and the branches of joint merchants in various places as the basis, and invite all Datang people to eat flowing water seats, ten cents per person, which is almost enough for our capital, and then take out a few million yuan more, and add two good dishes to each table."

Zhang Xiaobao followed.
