Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Jiang Shangxian could see that this guy wanted everyone around him to learn martial arts, including his guards, servants, and friends.

Hey, Zhao Shan looks so weak and gentle, could it be possible that he is also good at martial arts?

She thought so and asked. Cui Bianxu drooped his face and said unhappily, "When he was young, he practiced with me. He fell ill after two days and stayed in bed for three days."

Humph, he was punished by his father to copy the Analects three times. From then on, Zhao Shan could only eat snacks and watch him practice martial arts. He is really useless!

Fortunately, his mother did not punish him for this nephew who lived so far away, otherwise he would have been so angry that he would have died!

Jiang Shangxian secretly took note of this and told Li Xueyan when she came back that being weak has its advantages for men, as it makes them easier to control. But isn't Zhao Shan a little too weak?

She still likes Cui Bianxu, who gives her a sense of security.

Old Madam Xia and the other two were busy as hell. The simple tent they had set up was full of people, and many people were queuing up with big bowls in their hands. When the weather is cold, it is so comfortable to have a bowl of hot mutton ramen early in the morning.

Jiang Wangri went back to his room that day and thought about it for a long time. He finally figured it out. If his sister really got together with Cui Shaoqing, wouldn't he be his brother-in-law? If he wanted to learn martial arts in the future, it would be easy for his brother-in-law to help him, right?

After realizing this, he was no longer envious. When he saw Cui Bianxu, he was very attentive and served him three bowls of ramen filled with mutton, sprinkled with lots of chopped green onions, and even considerately peeled a few cloves of garlic for him.

As soon as Jiang Shangxian saw the garlic, she quickly took it back to him. Just kidding, although this thing tastes good, the taste in the mouth after eating it will not go away until the next day. She didn't want to be like Cui Bianxu, who was like releasing poison gas when he opened his mouth.

Cui Bianxu saw this and thought that Miss Jiang was very thoughtful to consider his preferences. He really didn't like eating raw garlic.

After finishing their breakfast, the two men waved goodbye and rode their horses out of the city. As soon as they left, the originally quiet diners at the mutton ramen stall suddenly became lively. Those who came here to have breakfast were all neighbors from Yong'anfang or from the nearby market.

Seeing Jiang Shangxian having breakfast with a young man, how could they stop their gossipy minds? They all asked Old Madam Xia, "Who is this? Is your mother engaged?"

"Yeah, why didn't you tell us about this happy event?"

"Oh, I saw that young man had an extraordinary aura. When he walked in just now, I didn't dare to say a word."

"Don't even dare to make a sound while eating noodles. With this appearance of a banished immortal, it's no exaggeration to say that he is a prince from some royal family. When did your family find such a son-in-law? Whose family is he from?"

"Don't you even look at the horse and the material it's wearing.

"I think I've seen that man before. He was there when the Jinwu Guards arrested the Lai family!"

"Oh, could he be from the Jinwu Guard? Madam Xia, you are so lucky to have your grandson-in-law in the Jinwu Guard. He has a bright future ahead of him."

Seeing the group's chatter getting more and more animated, and about to get to the part about not forgetting each other when they become rich and powerful, the two younger ones couldn't say a word, so Old Lady Xia quickly spoke up, "It's nothing serious. They just saw my aunt's cooking skills, so they invited her to cook for a day while she was away on a business trip. The pay was quite good, though. My aunt is capable, and her mother's cooking is just barely edible. But she has such a deft hand. Oh, my, whatever she makes tastes better than anyone else's."

"That's true. I had your aunt's cooking on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and I still miss it now. It's a pity that we can't afford to go to Lexianlou." The person who said this was a neighbor from Yong'anfang. He was also there when the meal was held on the second day of the Chinese New Year. When it came to Jiang Shangxian's cooking, he felt he had some say, and he smacked his lips in nostalgia.

"Is it really that delicious? I'm thinking that Madam Xia's mutton ramen is already delicious. Madam Xia is so lucky to have such capable granddaughters and granddaughters..."

Having successfully diverted the topic away from Cui Bianxu, Old Lady Xia chatted and laughed with satisfaction. She thought that it would be difficult to publicize the matter before it was finally finalized, otherwise it would be difficult for her young slave to find a new home.

Now Jiang Shangxian's riding skills have reached the point where she can ride the horse slowly without Cui Bianxu holding the reins. She thinks it's pretty good. There are many people in Chang'an City, and it would be bad if she rides too fast and bumps into someone.

She felt quite good about herself and thought it was quite romantic for the two of them to ride slowly all the way to the farm.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they left the city gate, Cui Bianxu began teaching and asked her to speed up and follow him.

Jiang Shangxian looked at his determined expression, as if he was about to join the Party, and his face that said, "You can do it, believe in yourself!", and smiled in agreement.

Okay, you want to ride a horse? Go ahead! Who are the successors of communism afraid of?

Cui Bianxu can do juggling on a horse, so if something happens, she doesn't believe she can fall!

Thinking of this, Jiang Shangxian sat up straight, held the reins in her left hand with a determined look, relaxed her legs, and swung the whip with her right hand. After a "snap", the expected push on the back did not come immediately. She was stunned, and Cui Bianxu, who was ready to rescue people at any time, was also stunned.

Jiang Shangxian raised his hand again in confusion, preparing to strike again: "Shaoqing, this...ah!"

I was just about to ask if there is something wrong with this horse?

The feeling of being pushed on the back came late, and after a scream, Jiang Shangxian bit her lip and dared not open her mouth. The wind was a problem, and shouting and scaring the horse was even more of a problem. Her foal was probably used to working slowly and lazily every time, and it didn't react when it was hit on the horse's butt. It ran out eagerly when it felt the person on its back was going to hit it again.

Her sharp exclamation startled Cui Bianxu's heart, and he nearly flung the whip he'd brought to his waist. Fortunately, Jiang Shangxian only uttered a single cry. He followed on horseback, observing Jiang Shangxian's condition. His body was slightly stiff, but his posture was correct, and his head wasn't moving.

He knew that he still had to force this man to come out. Look, he had been holding the reins for such a long time, but the effect was not as good as the whip. It turned out that his previous way of training people was correct!

Thinking of this, he felt more refreshed. He shook his head, squeezed his legs together, snorted, and two lines of white mist came out. He immediately ran to the front.
