The wheels were rumbling, and a carriage drove into Xuandefang.

"Here, one hundred and fifty feet away, it's your ancestral home."

The empress lifted the curtain and pointed to the end of Fang Street. As the sky was dawn, the houses were very quiet.

She wore a red gauze dress, with a waterfall-like black hairpin, only holding it with a jade hairpin, revealing her delicate pink neck, looking simple and elegant.

"Yes." Gu Changan nodded and suddenly said:

"The peonies in Chang'an are blooming, and the best among the flowers can finally be filled with joy."

Li's lips raised slightly, and Wen Ran said:

"The spring breeze of willows and the flying swallows of peonies are the most beautiful time of the year."

Thinking of the way he was traveling around when he just entered the city, and the silent soul shadow in the sword box that winter, does it mean to be reborn?

The carriage parked in an alley on a bluestone road. The alley was narrow and cold all year round, and the walls were covered with moss.

"Since I don't want to be disturbed, I won't live in your house. What about this place? My private property."

The empress pointed to a two-way house covered with fish scales and tiles, and there was a large clump of banana trees in the corner of the wall.

In fact, she was very conflicted. As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, she should have told the Central Plains that Gu Chang'an had returned home.

But she also likes obscurity very much, as if only in this way he is not a national hero, and she belongs alone.

"Then I'll have a soft meal."

Gu Changan jumped out of the carriage with a sword box in his arms and looked at the small house in front of him. The cracks between the courtyard wall and the floor tiles were clear and straight, and they were arranged in an orderly manner, which had a pleasing beauty.

"I know I support you, but I won't help me?" The empress snorted.

Gu Changan turned his head to look at her, but the woman did not blink.

"Please." He walked back and stretched out his right arm.

Li Wan put his five fingers on his cold wrist and walked off the carriage with a reserved look on his face.

"I live in the east room, you're the west room." She walked into the yard without saying anything, and she already had the style of a hostess.

A dog barking came from the next yard, and then the deep alleys were roaring like firecrackers.

The woman whispered to the point of getting up early. How did someone live in the idle house next door? You should ask the details, not the thief who steals the dog.

They placed a bench in the corner of the wall and stood on it to look into it.

“Not having a family possession.”

"Two sword boxes, Ai You are the heroes of the world."

"The walking posture is very noble, so I must be a friendly neighbor."

Living at the foot of the imperial city, the women still had some vision. The women put down their guard and soon went home with a few eggs and a bundle of spring bamboo shoots and cabbages.

The woman with big arms and round waist was full of enthusiasm, and looked at the two of them up close while loudly, "You are newly moved here. If you have anything to do in the future, don't be polite."

Gu Chang'an also disguised himself, even his white hair was dyed black by Li Wan. At this time, he looked like a very mediocre young man.

"My surname is Gu." He was at a loss to take the eggs and vegetables stuffed by the woman.

"What is this?" The woman from Fat Dudu looked at Li Wan.

Li Wan smiled lightly and deliberately did not speak.

Gu Changan hesitated for a moment and introduced:

"My wife."

Li Wan raised her eyebrows gently.

"A man and woman are beautiful, and she is made of heaven and earth. She will give birth to a noble son soon..." The women praised her for a few words and left on the pretext.

Li Wan glanced at him, and his bright and restrained eyes could not be hidden. Dan Dan said, "Who is your wife?"

The man smiled without saying a word and sat on the small stool in the courtyard. Li Wan took away a layer of film on his face. The breeze blew across his delicate and beautiful face and brushed a few strands of hair.

Gu Chang'an looked at the noble and elegant empress and joked:

"You will cook after ten fingers are not touched by spring water.

Finally, add one sentence:

"I won't."

Li Wan stood blankly, reviewing the habits she developed in government affairs. She subconsciously bit her fingertips with her beard teeth and stared at Gu Chang'an.

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

"I'll be used to you once." The empress was defeated, took away the basket of eggs and bamboo shoots, and took steps to the kitchen.

Gu Changan smiled and listened to the chickens crowing next door, which was exactly the life he had dreamed of when he was a child.

After a while, a kitchen knife chopped the chopping board and banged.

Gu Changan frowned and said, "Which one can use a kitchen knife for eggs and spring bamboo shoots?"

"Cut bamboo shoots." The crisp voice was filled with a hint of irritability.

"Line up together, just a few horizontal and vertical knifes."

"Don't make a noise, why don't you come?"

Gu Changan immediately shut up.

After struggling for an hour and a half, Li Wan brought two dishes in front of him, "Use it slowly!"

Gu Changan looked at the burnt eggs and the unconscious bamboo shoots, and then looked up at the angry empress.

"Where is the meal?"

"Where is rice?" Li Wan said angrily and handed him a pair of quick pieces.

Gu Changan picked up a quick egg, but he didn't touch his mouth for a long time, and said in a daze:

"I would rather drink wind and sand."

"What did you say?" Li Wan narrowed her eyes.

"I said it smells quite fragrant." Gu Changan put it in his mouth and swallowed it. If he didn't chew it, there would be no smell.

Li Wan nodded with satisfaction, sat on the bench, grabbed a piece of bamboo shoot and tasted it lightly, and quickly changed the topic:

"We eat and drink all the way, and there is only one gold ingot left in my sachet. Chang'an's prices are expensive, so we can't live in vain."

"So?" Gu Chang'an asked.

"You want to support your family, Hukou." Li Wan said for granted.

"What can I do?" Gu Changan was confused and suddenly remembered that Carpenter Qin taught him a few times in his spare time in the city. He was convinced:

"The wood withered!"

Li Wan's eyes turned around and she soon had a profitable idea:

"It's better to have a jade wither. We rent a shop and specialize in women's business, jewelry, etc. The money for women in Chang'an is the best to make."

She did what she said, and she pulled the man up and walked out.

"Face!" Gu Chang'an reminded.

"Oh," Li Wan turned around and went back to the house to get the human skin mask.

"Remember to bring money."

"Don't talk too much." Li Wan said as she stopped, returned to tiptoe, and kissed him on the cheek very gently.

The movements were as quiet as water, and the soft "wave" sound seemed to suppress endless power.

The two of them cleaned up for a while and then walked out of the house holding hands. The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were always open, and it was common for couples to hold hands and hug on the streets, so there was no need to worry about causing criticism.

"Young Master Gu, Mrs. Gu, go out."

News of the new neighbors moving to the empty house spread throughout the alley early in the morning, and neighbors greeted each other with a smile.

Gu Chang'an responded one by one, the people in the alley were light, the sunlight shone across the high wall, and the food was full of tea and food. Several people sat around the alley and chatted and laughed.

An old yellow dog ran out from behind, looking at the two of them, barking.

"Why should we also have a guardian?" Li Bang clinged to his ear and asked in a low voice.

Gu Changan thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid of trouble, so let's forget it."

Li Wan didn't care, and the two strolled to the nearby streets. She pointed and said:

"Lease the shop, contact the jade merchant, buy a cage of hens, five bags of rice, and two skewers of last year's bacon..."

"There are also pastries, I will give them back to the neighbors." Gu Changan added.

"Yes!" Li Wan almost forgot this.

"Is the money enough?"

"It should be similar. Huajue Lane is relatively remote. If it is not in a prosperous area, renting a store is very cheap."
