New to the city

The next morning, the rooster crows in the sky. Chen Changye slowly opened his eyes, he was still asleep in the middle of the night, he looked at Changpei curled up like a little wild cat next to him, she was still asleep, her long eyelashes trembling. Chen Changye gently pulled out his hand, and Changpei woke up.

"Get up!" Chen Changye looked at Changpei's little face, and gently flicked on his reddish face, Chen Changye said: "Let's bury my mother today, put it in the ground, and then we will set off for Chang'an City!"

Changpei's sleepy eyes were hazy, she rubbed her eyes and got up, and she didn't ask anything, quietly waiting for Chen Changye's orders.

The candles in the mourning hall have all been burned, and there are only two people in it, Chen Changye reluctantly looked at the face of his mother in the coffin, remembering her appearance, and he will never forget this person who raised him for the rest of his life.

Chen Changye took a deep breath, lifted the coffin board, and gently covered it. See you here, say goodbye for life. Chen Changye asked Chang Pei to help align it, and then took the long nail and began to fix the coffin, the sound of popping was earth-shattering, and soon the coffin was put together, and after confirming that it would not be easily opened, Chen Changye had to move out with Chang Pei.

The coffin was buried in front of the house where my mother had lived all her life, and there was a nice place next to the bamboo forest.

Chen Changye looked there, and his mother sat there every day shaking the loom. Lin Jingnian and An Keyi walked out of the side room, and they also woke up, but they were woken up by the sound of Chen Changye's hammer and nails.

After Lin Jingnian and An Keyi saw Chen Changye and Changpei, they said hello, and after a night, they had recovered their original spirits, or it should be Lin Jingnian who admitted the fact that An Keyi was his wife.

Chen Changye waved his hand and said, "Eh, let me do the rough work of digging a pit, Mrs. Lin, you can take Changpei to teach her to cook, we haven't eaten it in the morning!" He smiled on his face, and everything began to develop in a good direction.

After hearing this, An Keyi smiled and walked to the back room with the overwhelmed Changpei and taught her to pick vegetables and make a fire to boil water. And Lin Jingnian also picked up a hoe and stood next to him with great interest, Chen Changye smiled and changed a shovel for him, and the two of them dug wildly next to the bamboo forest.

After a while, everything was done, and there was a burst of aroma in the house, Chen Changye walked in and was surprised, the aroma was tangy, he was hungry after digging for so long, he couldn't help but admire: "Lin Jingnian, your kid married a good lady, his cooking skills are so good, he is really blessed!"

Lin Jingnian's originally stiff face also had a hint of a smile, he scratched his head in a daze and said, "Well, Madame is a good craft!" One of the few words made An Keyi's face flush, and she smiled modestly and said, "That's also a good vision of the husband!"

Changpei sat on the side and salivated, she had been helping with the kitchen on the side, and she was also very tired. An Keyi said with a smile: "Changpei is also a capable child, she has helped me a lot by the side, I can't do it without her!"

Hearing this, Changpei's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chen Changye with praise, Chen Changye smiled and didn't speak, gently rubbed her head, and the four of them sat down and started. Lin Jingnian and An Keyi are from big families in the end, and they are very particular about eating. Unlike Chen Changye and Changpei, one is a country farmer, and the other is a savage, gobbling it up and eating half of it after a while.

"Not bad, good, delicious!" Chen Changye's eyes lit up, this dish was indeed okay, and he suddenly thought, "Mrs. Lin, do you have any plans in the future? Do you want to open a restaurant or something?"

An Keyi was stunned, she put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and Changpei next to her sped up to eat, she said: "The slave family doesn't have this plan yet, if the husband needs it, the concubine can also try it." ”

Lin Jingnian, who was holding the vegetables, paused for a moment, he turned around and asked An Keyi: "If you really open a restaurant, are you busy coming?" His expression didn't look like a joke, and he stared at An Keyi's eyes very seriously.

"Hmm. An Keyi nodded slightly. Chen Changye pondered for a moment, he already had an idea in his heart, and Changpei was finally full, and he put the dishes and chopsticks on the table dignified and wiped his small mouth with An Keyi's appearance.

Lin Jingnian turned his head and asked Chen Changye: "Then are you interested in going to Chang'an City to open a bun shop?" His unfathomable appearance at this time seemed to have an idea, and his confident appearance made Chen Changye look forward to it.

So Chen Changye didn't hide it, he simply said: "Of course, my mother wants me to break out of my own world, and I think my bun shop can also be opened in all places in the world!"

Chang Pei applauded on the side and bent his eyebrows and smiled: "Brother, the bun shop, it must be possible! Open all over the world, everywhere!" Although she spoke with a pause, she fully supported Chen Changye's expression, and her lovely face was full of smiles.

An Keyi looked at Chang Pei curiously, with a puzzled expression, as if she didn't understand why she couldn't speak. Lin Jingnian could see what was going on, but he still didn't ask Chen Changye about Changpei, he asked: "Changye, I think we may be able to open a small restaurant in Chang'an City, and your bun shop can also be added!"

"This relationship is good!" Chen Changye was taken aback, he also immediately changed his name, and said, "Brother Jingnian, do you mean that I can join in your fun?"

Lin Jingnian smiled a little awkwardly, and said, "I have a plan that can give us a foothold in Chang'an City, but I need the reputation of your bun shop." ”

Chen Changye suddenly understood that he was still calculating himself, but since it was a win-win situation, he would not harm himself, so it was better to believe him, so he said: "Okay, if there is anything you need my help with, just say it, I will definitely help." ”

An Keyi and Changpei, who couldn't understand, watched from the side, Lin Jingnian also saw that Chen Changye was so honest, and he had admiration in his heart, and his intentions were not bad, so he said: "There is an old man in our City Lord's Mansion in Chang'an City, he shouldn't know about my departure, he is also a little famous over there, I want to open a restaurant under the guise of the gimmick of the An family and your bun shop." ”

When Chen Changye heard this, he understood Lin Jingnian's thoughts, and felt that it was wonderful, taking advantage of the psychology that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized and the information gap caused by the distance difference between the two places, and then using the reputation of the city lord's mansion and the An family to deceive, just deceive the next small building first, and when they make a little appearance, they can rent a shop by themselves, and presumably no one will have trouble with the money.

This plan cleverly avoided their most obvious weakness at this time, that is, poverty, if they were old-fashioned, how could they earn a piece of the world without a penny?

Chen Changye nodded excitedly, and he said, "Good idea, I think it's okay, then when will we leave?"

Lin Jingnian replied: "If you can, it's better as soon as possible, so as to save a lot of long nights and dreams, why don't we pack up and leave immediately this afternoon?"

Chen Changye's eyes lit up, and the hero saw the same thing, so the two explained the matter, hit it off, and everyone agreed to this matter. So Chen Changye and Changpei packed up, while Lin Jingnian and An Keyi both went back to the house to ask someone to get some coils.

However, the city lord's mansion and his party were unexpectedly smooth, Lin Jingnian easily took one hundred taels of silver from Lin Jinyue's hand, which was 100,000 copper coins, this huge amount of money made Chen Changye dizzy, and he happily bought some pots and pans and kitchen utensils.

The rest could be saved, and the four of them thought it would be better to go there, and it was too expensive to hire two carriages, and there was still a lot of money to be spent on them to get there, so they just left. As for the matter of the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Jingnian inadvertently learned from Lin Jiyue that they handled this matter internally, and they didn't dare to make a noise, and even gave Chen Changye a reassuring medicine.

Later, Chen Changye took the only few shabby clothes, bought cloth for Changpei and them, asked the tailor to make some new clothes, and bought some dry food and weapons, and set off.

After more than three days of travel, the four finally arrived at the bustling Chang'an City. With the help of Lin Jingnian's original city lord's mansion logo, the four of them mixed into the lively Chang'an, and entered the city is a different world, the four of them walked around the street for a long time, and it was already late before they remembered to find an inn to live in.

So he walked to the inn, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden exclamation around, and the four of them were still confused.

I saw that everyone retreated and formed a circle, and their eyes all looked behind Chen Changye. The four of them turned around in confusion and found that there was a person lying on the ground who had just walked over, and a sharp arrow was piercing his head! Chen Changye stepped forward to probe and found that he was dead, and he was killed in an instant!

Lin Jingnian looked in the direction and saw a figure turning away from the window on the third floor of a Fulai inn not far away.

They were feeling strange, a team of officers and soldiers didn't know where to come out, and suddenly surrounded the four people, An Keyi was so frightened that she leaned closely to Lin Jingnian's side, and Chang Pei also took Changye's hand in fear and watched carefully.

"Someone, take it!" said a loud voice, and it looked like a pot-bellied local official with a black gauze hat.

Chen Changye didn't have time to argue too much, those officers and soldiers were about to come around, Chang Pei grabbed the spear on the luggage stretcher next to him, and asked Nuo Nuo: "Brother, this, do you want to fight?" As long as Chen Changye gave an order, she would kill a bloody way to protect Chen Changye.

She is still too upright, Xiucai met Bing, and she couldn't explain it reasonably. Chen Changye looked at Lin Jingnian, only to see him nodding, signaling to look at the situation first, and honestly pressed his hands on the two officers and soldiers, An Keyi and Changpei next to him were women, so naturally no one would deal with them, so let them go.

So Chen Changye decided to believe Lin Jingnian, put his hands down, and hinted that Chang Pei should not do it.

Chang Pei naturally obediently put down the spear and waited by the side to see what happened. At this time, Lin Jingnian spoke up, "This big man, why did you arrest me and my friends, could it be that we did something wrong?"

"You killed someone, what if you arrest you?" the official replied, Lin Jingnian suddenly smiled, he already understood what was going on. And Changpei, Chen Changye and the others next to them were still confused, what happened?
