If this is written, it is estimated that no matter how good his poems are, others will think that he copied them from other places.

With a frowning face, he slapped his right hand hard, grinning from the pain and complaining to Goldfinger from the bottom of his heart.

This dog's cheating is a pit, and now his brain can understand it, but his paw says he can't. Is there a wool for it?

But in the current situation, doesn't it mean that he has to practice his calligraphy for a few years before becoming an official?

This is not a joke. If you can't write a good handwriting in ancient times, you basically don't have to expect to join the officialdom.

In this era of "handwriting is like a person", even if you don't ask what kind of calligrapher you are, a generous and neat regular script is definitely the basic requirement.

After all, officials had to draw up pens to issue documents and submit reports, even for military generals who seemed extremely rude, they had to draw up pens to write military reports by themselves.

Even if the writing style is not good, but at least one handwriting is neat and will never escape.

Therefore, practicing calligraphy has become a hurdle for Zhang Nuo before entering the officialdom. After all, there is no computer here for Zhang Nuo to show off his keyboard warrior skills.

But after thinking about it carefully, um~ it’s not a big problem. After all, even the copybooks I copied when I was a child are still vivid in my mind, and now I can’t forget them. The big deal is to write him for two hours every day, and then wait until the plug-in is credited. Improving, absolutely forcing the rhythm of everyone in calligraphy!

Thinking of his pride, Zhang Nuo leaned back habitually, but fell to the ground with a snap.

What the hell!

Zhang Nuo lay on the ground, staring at the round stool in front of him like a wooden pier, in a daze for a long time.

Only then did I realize that there are no back chairs or grand master chairs of later generations in these days, let alone sofas. They either sit on their knees, or they are such round wooden blocks.

Thinking about the carpentry skills taught by his grandfather in his mind, and after thinking about it for a while, Zhang Nuo immediately decided that he had to buy two comfortable chairs for himself in the past few days, and then replace all the tables, chairs and benches in the store.

Practice calligraphy and so on, I will talk about it later, I can't live without two comfortable chairs!

Chapter 4 Old Li is here again

Zhang Nuo, who has found his job goal, has swept away the laziness of the previous days, purchasing tools, wooden squares, measuring, and drawing, and he is very busy.

What's more, Zhang Nuo just bought two pieces of money from Lao Li before, and Zhang Nuo specially paid someone to make plain cushions and cushions and put them on his "throne".

Sitting on his "throne", Zhang Nuo once again resumed his previous boring and lazy appearance.

Just when Zhang Nuo was thinking about whether to go to the bookstore to get a few books to read, which can pass the time and increase knowledge, the big client Lao Li who just met a few days ago, Shi Shi with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face Then walked in.

And it wasn't alone, there was a noble lady in a plain skirt following behind her.

Lao Li was probably in a good mood, and greeted him as soon as he came in,

"Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, I'm here again, Lao Li, and I brought my family with me, hurry up and get something to eat!"

When Zhang Nuo saw a big client coming to the door, if he hadn't blocked his ears, he could have grinned to the back of his head, so he hurried forward to greet him.

"Hey, Lao Li, you just brought your sister-in-law out. Come on, I'll show you off today. You sit down first."

Zhang Nuo quickly wiped the dust off the tables and chairs with a half-dry linen cloth, led the two of them to their seats, and hurried to the back kitchen to work.

It is said that old men have the best face in front of women, today Lao Li brought his family out, as long as he eats happily, how much can the reward be?

And looking at the graceful yet kind-looking woman just now, I think she is from a wealthy family, so I have to prepare well.

It must be said that only the prosperous Tang Dynasty had such an open style of men and women. Even the eldest grandson queen, the lord of the harem, was brought out by Li Shimin for the reason of visiting Uncle Zhang's son and tasting delicious food. Eating at one table, if it was placed in other dynasties, don't even think about it.

Zhang Nuo was busy at the back, while Li Shimin was studying the new chair just replaced under his buttocks.

"Guanyin maidservant, look at this chair, I don't know where I got it, the back is leaned on, and people are not so tired when sitting. I have to ask Xiaozhang later, and we will buy some when the time comes."

Empress Changsun didn't pay attention to the chair, but looked at the inscription "Old Zhang is great" on the wall with a smile on her face.

Li Er originally wanted to say a few more words about the chair, but when he looked up and saw the words on the wall, and then looked at Empress Changsun's narrow smiling face, his old face immediately flushed red, and it took him a long time to calm down. said something,

"That's what Lao Zhang asked me to ask for back then. I was only thirteen years old at the time, and I was so begged by Lao Zhang that I couldn't help it, so I wrote it to him!"

Empress Changsun is not in the palace at the moment, and the husband next to her is no longer the emperor wearing a dragon robe. The two of them seem to have returned to the scene when they were newly married in Taiyuan in this market.

Therefore, Empress Changsun also smiled mischievously, wrinkled her nose and said with a smile,

"Husband, I had a lot of dealings with Uncle Zhang back then, and I have seen that picture before!"

Li Shimin blushed immediately, Nima forgot that this was also the person involved back then.

Although Empress Changsun was only thirteen years old when she married Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was already sixteen years old at that time, Lao Zhang was already Li Shimin's personal bodyguard, and he followed him all the time. The queen is naturally familiar with it and cannot be more familiar.

Fortunately, Zhang Nuo's arrival saved Li Shimin's predicament.

Lion head, pan-fried tofu, stir-fried mutton, mutton soup, fried meat with fungus, and a pot full of yam and lamb chop soup, immediately filled the table to the brim.

Zhang Nuo also admired his own craftsmanship. In this era when eating pork was not very popular, it was impossible not to be proud of making such a table of hard dishes with proper meat and vegetables by relying on mutton alone.

Li Shimin and his wife were also overwhelmed by the table full of dishes at the moment, and the smell was enough to seduce people.

What's more, the dishes on this table are not like the ones made by the imperial chefs served in the palace, all kinds of soups are watery and sticky, but those made by Zhang Nuo, each dish looks extremely delicate.

After all, Li Er came here once, and only started to try the dishes one by one after taking the initiative to serve Empress Changsun.

Seeing Zhang Nuo standing aside with a smile on his face, Li Er quickly greeted him,

"Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, don't stand there, come over to have some food together, and we, my wife and I, can also listen to your introduction. I'm ashamed to say that neither of us has seen these meals before!"

Zhang Nuo was also polite, sat down, and began to introduce these delicacies he had carefully prepared one by one.

As he was talking, he suddenly saw Empress Changsun covering her nose with her hands and coughing twice.
