Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

Covered in dust from his journey, Cheng Yaojin strode back to his mansion with big strides.

As soon as he stepped into the room, he saw a woman walking towards him with a graceful figure. He subconsciously stepped back and said cautiously, "Who are you? Don't rush over!"

When he looked closely, he found it was Hua Da Jiao.

Hua Da Jiao looked radiant. Her skin, which had been a little rough due to wind and sun, was now delicate and smooth. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to have faded a lot, and her cheeks were flushed, making her look several years younger.

With a smug smile on her face, she lightly moved in front of Cheng Yaojin and said, "Humph, Cheng Yaojin, you don't even recognize me?"

Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened as he circled around Hua Da Jiao, his face filled with surprise. "My lady, what...what kind of magic potion did you take? How did you become so...so beautiful?"

Hua Da Jiao grumbled softly and picked up an exquisite box from the dressing table. "Look at you, you're so silly. This is the beauty cream I bought today, the one from Yu Yu. It's so good. Doesn't my skin look much better now?"

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and scratched his head: "My wife is already beautiful, and now she looks like a fairy. It seems that this beauty cream is really a good thing."

Hua Da Jiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're just being sweet. From now on, I'll have to use this beauty cream more often."

Cheng Yaojin nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of amazement at Hua Dajiao's transformation: "I'll buy some resurrection armor to relieve my sweat."

His words left Hua Da Jiao completely confused. She scolded him, "What are you talking about? What's this resurrection armor? That's something you only see on the battlefield. What does it have to do with this beauty cream? Don't mess around."

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head: "Hehe, my lady, I was just saying that this beauty cream is so magical, I also want to try it. Maybe after using it, all my fatigue can be eliminated."

Hua Da Jiao rolled her eyes at him. "You're buying it too? You're a grown man, why would you want this beauty cream? Besides, this thing is really popular right now, everyone is talking about it. The hype is so annoying. I finally bought it, so don't add to the chaos."

Cheng Yaojin disagreed: "My lady, this beauty cream is so amazing, maybe it will be useful for my rough face too. Maybe I can even use this good-looking face to scare off the enemy on the battlefield in the future!"

Cheng Yaojin was resting in his mansion when his sons Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chuliang, Cheng Chubi, Cheng Chucun, Cheng Chuli, Cheng Jun and others ran in from outside. The noise was so loud that it scared Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin frowned and shouted, "Hey! Why are you all rushing in here in such a hurry? What happened? You don't have the presence of mind to calm down. How disgraceful!"

Cheng Chumo hurriedly stepped forward and replied respectfully, "Dad, this is what happened. People are saying that Yuyu's beauty cream is very effective. Mom bought some and is using it. Now she looks so radiant. We thought we should get some more in the house so that the women in the family can use it."

Cheng Chuliang also echoed: "Yes, Dad, now everyone in the streets and alleys is talking about this. It feels so rare. We can't fall behind."

The other sons also nodded and looked at Cheng Yaojin eagerly, waiting for his decision.

Cheng Yaojin was both angry and amused when he heard this. He raised his hand and pretended to hit them: "Humph, you guys, you just worry about these things all day long. Is that beauty cream something you should be thinking about? Get out of here and stop making trouble!"

In the Cheng family's courtyard, Hua Da Jiao was sitting in front of the dressing table, carefully applying the precious beauty cream on her face in front of the mirror, humming a little tune, and feeling particularly happy.

At this time, the Cheng family's little daughter came running in, looking at her mother's radiant appearance, her eyes full of envy. She pulled the corner of Hua Da Jiao's clothes and said coquettishly, "Mom, I want to put on makeup too. Look how beautiful you are now. I want to be beautiful too."

When Hua Da Jiao heard this, she smiled and tapped her daughter's nose: "Oh, my dear daughter, your face is so pretty and tender, you don't need this thing now."

The little girl was adamant and kept begging, shaking her arms with flowery feet: "Mother, please let me apply it. I see that the sisters in the mansion all love to be beautiful, and I want to try it too. Please."

Hua Da Jiao shook her head helplessly and gently scratched her daughter's face. "Okay, okay, I'll put a little on you. But don't be greedy. You're still young, and your skin is naturally moist."

As she spoke, Hua Da Jiao dipped her finger in a little beauty cream and carefully spread it on her daughter's little face. Her movements were very gentle, as if she was treating the most precious treasure in the world.

The little girl closed her eyes, feeling the cool and moist touch on her face, and laughed happily: "Wow, Mom, it feels so comfortable. I will apply it every day in the future."

Hua Da Jiao looked at her daughter lovingly and said with a smile, "You are such a beautiful little girl."

After Hua Dajiao applied beauty cream on her daughter, she took her daughter's hand, and the mother and daughter walked around in the courtyard of the mansion, talking and laughing.

As the daughter walked, she looked up at Hua Da Jiao and asked, "Mom, if I apply this beauty cream, will I become as beautiful as you are now in a while?"

Hua Da Jiao smiled and replied, "Of course, my baby is already pretty, and after applying this good stuff, he will definitely be even more lovable."

They strolled slowly along the path in the courtyard. When they passed the flowers, the daughter broke free from Flowery Foot's hand and ran to pick a small flower. She came back skipping and tucking the flower into her hair, tilting her head and asking, "Mom, do you think I'm beautiful like this?"

Hua Dajiao looked at her daughter's playful and lovely appearance and nodded repeatedly: "Beautiful, very beautiful, my girl is the most beautiful fairy in this mansion."

The breeze blew gently, lifting the corners of their clothes and hair, and the laughter of the mother and daughter echoed in the courtyard. The warm and beautiful scene was like a moving painting.

As we walked, my daughter asked curiously, "Mom, why is this beauty cream so effective? What is it made of?"

Hua Da Jiao gently pinched her daughter's cheek and said with a smile, "I'm not too sure about this, but I know it's the secret recipe of the Yu Yu family. Many ladies have used it and say it's good. When you grow up, maybe you'll know the secret."

My daughter nodded as if she understood, her eyes sparkling with childlike innocence.

She didn't ask any more questions and happily took Hua Da Jiao's hand.

The mother and daughter walked hand in hand in the courtyard, facing the breeze.

She was like a happy little bird, chirping and telling interesting stories, and her laughter echoed in the courtyard, full of warmth.
