Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

As soon as the seventh day arrived, she gave Li Xueyan a rich snack. Of course, there were two copies. If Li Xueyan didn't get it, she would definitely make a fuss with her for a long time.

The remaining portion was given to three good disciples, one portion was taken home to eat, and the other three were prepared for Cui Bianxu to take back to honor his future mother-in-law and aunt.

The grand snack business came to an end. Before Jiang Shangxian could breathe a sigh of relief and wait for his reward, a prophecy quietly spread in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City: After three generations of the Tang Dynasty, the female ruler King Wu would replace the Li family and rule the world.

Driven by the gossip-loving Tang people, this news spread throughout Chang'an in a very short time and was known to everyone. At the same time, the historian Li Chunfeng observed the celestial phenomena at night and saw Taibai passing through the sky, which meant that a female ruler would rise and replace His Majesty within 30 years, rule the country, and kill the descendants of the Li Tang royal family.

Jiang Shangxian, who knew history, was shocked. Isn't this too clever?

The brainstorming session started, and Jiang Shangxian began to recall who Li Chunfeng was.

Maybe because watching The Swordsman in the Snow was so powerful, the first thing that came to her mind was 'If Heaven had not given birth to me, Li Chungang, the way of swordsmanship would have been like a long night forever'.

Then he slapped himself hard on the thigh to bring his mind back to the topic that had strayed away again. He thought hard for a long time, and finally remembered it when he walked out of Lexian Building after get off work!

He was the first person in the world to classify winds, the first to discover that comets do not emit light, the first to predict a total solar eclipse, the first to invent an astronomical observatory, the first to write a monograph on the history of meteorology, and the first to predict things up to today. The legendary first Taoist prophecy book, "The Book of Prophecies", was written by him and Yuan Tiangang.

My Nyonya!

This Taoist priest, who was almost a god in history, made such a prophecy. Jiang Shangxian couldn't imagine how Li Shimin would react.

After all, Li Chunfeng's status in feudal superstition can be summed up in four words - his battle record can be checked.

This is the same as Li Shimin's position in dealing with the relationship between father, son and brothers - his military record can be checked.

Li Chunfeng said: No one knows divination better than me.

Trusted by the world.

Li Shimin said: No one in this world knows how to handle the relationship between father and son and brothers better than me.

The whole world will believe it!

Although he knew that Wu Meiniang would be fine in the end, Jiang Shangxian was still worried about her while he was having all sorts of wild thoughts.

Unfortunately, the emperor's family affairs were not something she could easily know. The rumors circulating in the streets were just those. The big thing facing the Jiang family was - they were moving!

In fact, if it weren't for the need to choose an auspicious day, the move could have been done long ago. Unfortunately, the Jiang family members were very consistent in this kind of feudal superstition: looking at the almanac.

The main person in charge of translating the almanac: Jiang Shangxian.

Secondary person in charge: Jiang Wangri.

The brother and sister, one relying on guesswork and the other on gamblers, set the date with great difficulty.

Auspicious for: moving into a new house, cleaning, bathing, burying, offering sacrifices, and breaking ground.

Taboos: getting married, riding a horse, fasting and offering sacrifices, visiting the sick, taking up a new post, and exterminating pests.

Good days, rare good days.

Fortunately, when the new house was bought, the owner sold the furniture together with it. They were going back home and could not take so many things with them. Otherwise, the journey would be so long that the value of these second-hand furniture would not be as much as the travel expenses, which was terrifying.

This is a good deal for the Jiang family. Otherwise, according to Jiang's mother's personality, she would definitely not be willing to buy a new set of furniture and would definitely buy it from here.

Now their lives were much easier. They only had to rent two donkey carts and make a few trips back and forth to move all their belongings over.

When they were moving, many neighbors came to help and watch the fun. Jiang's mother and Old Madam Xia kept smiling, and they kept chatting with everyone, trying their best to look like they were reluctant to leave. "We're just staying there for a while, and we'll move back soon."

"There's no place I'm familiar with over there. It's nothing like our Yong'anfang. I've lived here for years. If it weren't for my children, I wouldn't want to leave even for a single day."

"In the future, if you want to eat mutton noodles, remember to go across the street. We will still set up a stall by the Yong'an Canal."

Some of the neighbors came to watch the fun, but of course there were also those who really didn't want to leave. Jiang's mother had lived here for so many years, and it wasn't for nothing. Naturally, she had a few aunts she could chat with, but it was a pity that Zhou Sanniang never showed up.

Mother Jiang was still a little sad. She stretched her neck and waited for a long time, but in the end, no one came to see her off. After they had gone far away, she quietly complained to Jiang Shangxian, "Look, Zhou Sanniang must be mad at me. Otherwise, why wouldn't she come to see me off today?"

Zhou Sanniang's eldest brother had set out on a business trip a few days ago with a caravan and the money and goods he had raised. Along the way, they had to keep buying and selling, buying and selling, repeating this process until they returned to Chang'an at the end of the year and sold out the last batch of goods, completing a round of business.

Jiang's mother naturally did not invest any money. Zhou Sanniang had looked for her a few times at the beginning, but later she stopped looking for her when she found out that she really did not intend to invest any money. Jiang's mother naturally could not say that all her money had been hidden by her daughter, and now she had to face her palms upwards every day when spending money.

Normally it would have been fine if she didn't donate money, but before she said she was short of money, Cui Bianxu came to give her New Year gifts. There were so many things that the news spread all over Yong'anfang, so Zhou Sanniang naturally knew about it.

Seeing that she was pretending to be poor in front of her, Zhou Sanniang was so angry that she smashed two teacups after returning home, and kept scolding Jiang's mother for pretending to be stupid and foolish, but in fact she was more cunning than anyone else!

Jiang Shangxian didn't even need to say anything about this matter, Madam Xia was already scolding her daughter: "Stop making things difficult for me on such a good day! Our family needs money right now, and you gave it away. How can Nian Nu still get married? You don't want such a good marriage? I think you've lost your mind because of the good life we've had. Our family's life will only get better and better. Stop dreaming about pie in the sky all day long!"

Jiang's mother immediately shrank her neck after being scolded, and dared not say a word. She felt a little wronged. She hadn't said she would invest money, but she was just a little sad. She used to be so good with Zhou Sanniang, but now when she met her, she would only say a few polite words to her. Sigh...

Jiang's mother was a little sad as she felt she had lost her mother's love while losing a friendship.

Fortunately, she soon stopped being sad. There were so many things to do when moving. Although the new house had been cleaned three times in advance, things still had to be packed up and sorted out after being moved in. These were all hard work. Fortunately, Lao Fan still stayed here, and he diligently helped with some heavy work such as fetching water.

Cui Bianxu had originally wanted to take leave to come and help today. How could a man with a serious job take leave just to do such a small thing? Old Madam Xia shook her head and just said that she would invite him over for a moving party after everything was settled.
