Chapter 237 Meal Reduction Order

Update time:22--2

For more than ten days, Su Jin has been in a state of concentration in reading. Su Jin himself feels strange. Now his mood is getting calmer and calmer. In the past, he could hold one thing in his mind for more than ten days, which made him feel uncomfortable.

It's really incredible that I can forget everything quickly without being surprised.

I had such a big conflict with Prince Teng. If I had put it aside in the past, I would not have bothered to read on. But now, I have actually done it; this matter is not actually settled, and the current peace is only temporary, just like

After a round of fighting, the two cockfighting cocks needed to rest for a while. Maybe at some point, Prince Teng would target him again and find an indefensible crime to send him directly to the eighteenth level of hell.

As for the identity of Taizu Tuomeng, it was just a surprise for people who were used to living an ordinary life. Over time, people gradually realized that Su Jin was just an ordinary student, and there was no other strange behavior in him.

, people’s sense of surprise quickly disappeared.

This kind of thing is like some kind of desire in a man, it comes and disappears faster. After a few days, I still like to block the alley, crowding to see the head of Su Xiaoguan, who is worshiping Taizu.

The crowd was getting smaller and smaller day by day. In the end, even if Su Jin walked to the alley in a swagger and shouted "I am Su Jin" at the top of his lungs, no one would look at him anymore; even on the street

The old man who picked up the dung balls was unwilling to raise his head.

Life has returned to calm, even if there are still inexplicable threats lingering around, but at least it seems calm on the surface.

Rou Niang stayed until the tenth day of September before reluctantly leaving. During this period, Su Jin's sweet dream of hugging her left and right could never be realized, but Xiao Sui'er was tormented so much that she pricked up her ears every now and then to eavesdrop.

The fairy sound was faint, and I felt uncomfortable all over. The weather in autumn was also strangely cold. A few times the night wind blew, and Xiao Sui'er sneezed repeatedly. Su Jin was so startled that she almost withered several times.

The day after Rou Niang left, the academy convened all the students to announce the latest meal reduction order issued by the court, which stipulated that starting from today, three meals a day will be changed to two meals, and the three meals a day will not be resumed until next May.

Everyone was talking about it and didn't know why. The ban just said that the emperor took the lead in implementing the meal reduction order. Its purpose was to promote frugality in response to the increasing luxury and waste and extravagance in the world. But everyone with a discerning eye knows that there is absolutely nothing wrong with this.

There is a way.

Su Jin's first reaction was that her high-end clothing business would be affected. Although the emperor's frugality was only about reducing meals and did not mention clothing, accessories, etc., but

If such rumors are released, it will definitely affect business.

But Su Jin thought about it carefully all night and felt that this matter was very strange. Extravagance and waste were not new today, and extravagance and waste had nothing to do with skipping a meal.

The extravagance of the previous Tang Dynasty was even worse than that of the Song Dynasty, and no emperor ever ordered to skip a meal. They were two completely unrelated things.

To put it simply, eating ten meals a day, including chicken, duck, and fish, and dumping them in the ditch is called extravagance and waste. Ordinary people have three meals a day, one or two bowls of rice, and two or three plates of vegetables, tofu, pickles, and dumplings.

, if you skip one meal like this, is it called frugality?

This is not frugality, this is scraping from between the teeth.

The emperor took the lead in saving one meal. Why? Su Jin naturally remembered something, which made him very uneasy.

Early the next morning, Su Jin rushed to Yan Biyun before entering school. He asked for proof. Yan Biyun must have got more information about this matter than he did.

Xiao Xian'er has been very good to Su Jin recently. She doesn't give a good look when she sees Su Jin. Since Su Jin escaped from the disaster, the relationship between the two families has obviously become much closer, and Xiao Xian'er also

Because after teasing Su Jin on the porch that day, he was so shy that he didn't show his face for several days. But every morning, Liu Ji's little boy would bring a basket of crab roe buns to Hefenglou and ask for them by name.

Leave it to Xiao Xian'er.

This matter made Yan Biyun a little confused. After asking, she found out that Su Jin had agreed to send a basket of crab roe buns to Xiao Xian'er every day, saying that it was to thank Xiao Xian'er for taking care of her. How could Yan Biyun believe such a thing?

After several cross-examinations, Xiao Xian'er finally revealed what Su Jin had said to her that day: "If I share the same tent with your passionate young lady, how can I be willing to fold the quilt and make the bed with you?"

Yan Biyun was angry and funny. This guy actually dared to flirt with the girl who was close to him. It was really abominable. Yan Biyun didn't blame Su Jin for being flirtatious, she was just unhappy with Su Jin's lack of dignity. If the two of them could really marry Luan Feng,

According to the unwritten rules of the Song Dynasty, his personal maid was Su Jin's bed-warmer; but even so, he would not openly tease her.

Yan Biyun found an opportunity. After clarifying his words, he stretched out his hand and twisted Su Jin's ears until they turned red. Not only did Su Jin show no regrets, but he launched a counterattack on the spot. In less than a cup of tea, Yan Biyun lost the two pills in his chest.

Being licked and played with by Su Jin made him blush, so the matter was left alone.

As for the crab roe buns, there is a basket of them every day, without interruption. I am afraid that if the crab roe is not out of the market, the crab roe buns will be sent to the end.

In fact, Yan Biyun also knew that Su Jin had an ulterior motive in currying favor with Xiao Xian'er. Xiao Xian'er was his personal maid, and he could hide nothing from her. Su Jin's move was out of concern for teasing, rather than appeasement and bribery. He often appeared there.

As for her boudoir, she sometimes even dared to come in the middle of the night. If Xiao Xian'er wasn't there to take care of her, I'm afraid rumors would eventually spread.

Su Jin didn't do anything out of the ordinary. She never forced anything, like kissing and touching. After Xiao Xian'er broke up the matter, she felt a little bit unhappy when she saw Su Jin sending crab roe buns as usual.

I'm sorry, I also apologized to Su Jin, so that it would be more convenient for Su Jin to come and go.

When Su Jin walked into Yan Biyun's boudoir through the morning dew and a hint of air-conditioning, Xiao Xian'er was walking out with her fluffy hair and yawning, carrying the basin of cold water from last night. She suddenly came face to face with Su Jin and almost died of fright.

.

Su Jin winked and smiled, stretched out his hand and gently touched her tender waist, and then stepped into the room seriously as if nothing happened. Xiao Xian'er blushed and was stunned for a long time, spat, and closed the door behind her back.

Yan Biyun read the account books very late last night, and Su Jin came early. At this moment, she was squinting her eyes carelessly and feeling confused under the thin quilt. Su Jin walked in a hurry and bumped into a brocade stool, making a clanking sound. Yan Biyun whispered softly.

He asked angrily: "Xian'er, something was knocked over."

Su Jin tiptoed aside the bamboo curtain and walked inside, pinched her nose and said, "Miss, it's an old cat."

Yan Biyun heard something strange in the voice, opened his eyes, was startled, and spat: "I'm going to die, I'm getting more and more shameless, get out quickly, I'll get dressed now."

Su Jin looked at her rosy face and the thousands of strands of black hair scattered around her. She felt so loved that she couldn't go out. Instead of going out, she took off her shoes, opened one end of the brocade quilt and got in.

Yan Biyun hurriedly beat his raised quilt and said: "Bad guy, get out, ah... don't... don't kiss there."

After that, all she could do was roll her eyes and gasp for air. Su Jin had already captured her two jade rabbits in her hands, biting her until her whole body went limp and her soul flew out of her mind.

The two lingered for a long time before Su Jin let go of Yan Biyun, got out, picked up the half-naked Yan Biyun and sat on his lap, smacking his lips and laughing.

Yan Biyun took a few breaths, her face was as red as a big red cloth, she beat Su Jin and said: "You bad guy, do you want the slave family to be shameful? If this continues, the slave family will become a slut."

Su Jin kissed her on the face and said: "The hall above, the kitchen below, a lady in front of others, a slut in the boudoir, these are my favorites."

Yan Biyun said angrily: "Don't say that. You are full of nonsense and not serious. You come here early in the morning and make mischief. Why don't you go to the hospital?"

Su Jin said: "It's still early. The weather is getting shorter and the time to enter the academy has been postponed. It's half past midnight and it's too late."

Yan Biyun pushed away his hand that was squeezing her chest, straightened her hair and said, "Do you have something to say?"

Su Jin smiled and said: "Those who know me are from the Yan Dadong family. Do you know about the imperial court's order to reduce meals?"

Yan Biyun said: "There was a notice at the yamen gate yesterday afternoon. Xian'er went to see it and came back to tell me."

Su Jin said: "There is something going on here."

Yan Biyun smiled enigmatically and said, "What do you think?"

Su Jin could tell from Yan Biyun's smile that she must know something, and she immediately became excited. She walked up to him and smiled, "Little lady, do you know the inside story?"
