Chapter 10: Not Treating One's Husband as a Man

Zhang Yang looked at the clothes again; the sleeves were fine, but after examining the hem, he said, "The design of this garment is quite avant-garde."

I see that you have quite an appetite

The newly made pajamas hang on the body like a large piece of cloth

Are you saying that your scoundrel of a father is not coming back?

The shopkeeper stepped out and saw Zhang Yang, "Young man, do you really have pulp?"

Lu Zhaolin further remarked: "I have not mastered my craft well."

The shopkeeper glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, said: "How about ten guan of money?"

The new clothes are on, but there are many loose threads at the seams of the garment

Zhang Yang picked up the wooden bucket, "Five guan of money? Then I might as well pour it out."

Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes and saw Li Yue curled up beside him, asleep

After a long time, Yu Shinan wanted to straighten his body

Seeing this, Zhang Yang really wanted to fall down

The drawing you made is indeed detailed, including the height, width, and the slope of the roof; I have never seen such a detailed illustration before

Paper is purchased sheet by sheet

This paper is not edible

Cover her with a light blanket

Let's go out to see the river lanterns on the day of the Ghost Festival

The aged Yu Shinan carefully observed the paper pulp with his hands.

One sleeve is long, and the other sleeve is short

It is rare to hear Li Yue express a desire to go out and move around actively

The shopkeeper approached the master of the residence and bowed, saying, "I have met with the Grand Scholar. Today, someone sold a bucket of pulp to me."

Paper has always been in high demand

Zhang Yang said: "Your practical skills still need improvement"

Zhang Yang walked into the room and said, "Isn't it too loose?"

Pulp is different; a single barrel of pulp can produce thousands of sheets of paper

The Ghost Festival is approaching, and there are many pedestrians on the streets

Returning to his own Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin felt that some people had been rather sinister lately. Cheng Yaojin's son, Cheng Chumo, had been searching for a person named Lu Zhishen, claiming that he wanted to become sworn brothers with Lu Zhishen.

Hearing this, the fellow quickly walked into the store

Fortunately, there is still a considerable amount of pulp in the barrel

Zhang Yang said: "I am really just used for that..."

Previously, Li Yue did not have the habit of taking a nap

The shopkeeper bowed to Yu Shinan and said, "I will certainly do my utmost to find this person"

Lu Zhaolin weakly approached Emperor Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, I drink several pounds of tea every day, and I have not slept well for three days and nights. Your Majesty, to atone for my sins, I truly..."

The shopkeeper helped Yu Shinan sit down again, saying, "You must also take care of your health"

The Imperial Medical Bureau of Chang'an City

Looking into the room, Li Yue was changing her clothes, "This pajamas of yours is not useful at all"

Zhang Yang was styling her hair, and Li Yue had very good hair quality, which felt very pleasant to the touch

Even if a shop wants to buy paper, it can only obtain finished paper

Individuals who cover their faces to sell goods typically offer items of uncertain origin

The Imperial Medical Bureau is filled with soaked tea leaves

Zhang Yang put on his clothes and tried them on. Looking at his sleeves, he said, "These sleeves are quite unique."

Zhang Yang opened the lid of the wooden barrel and said, "Take a look."

Yu Shinan coughed a few times

Due to the lack of proper tools, the paper still shows uneven areas caused by the irregular coagulation of the pulp.

twenty guan of money

Wearing the mask he made himself, Zhang Yang arrived at a stationery store.

The man cautiously asked, "Do you have something to discuss?"

There must always be a source of long-term income at home

After speaking, she took the clothes to be tailored

A night has passed, and as the morning breeze blows, the city of Chang'an regains its usual hustle and bustle.

Only now can it be considered that there is some capital

Where can one find tea leaves after this season

The shopkeeper hurriedly left the residence, his mind constantly recalling the figure of the person selling pulp.

As Zhang Yang turned into a quiet alley, he noticed that someone was following him

Not even the pulp will be shown to you

Zhang Yang, while putting on the clothes handed to him by Li Yue, was secretly astonished that this girl could actually understand.

In addition to his skill in tea frying, Lu Zhao-lin's accomplishments in medicine are also commendable; it is a pity that he has passed away

Zhang Yang had already taken the pulp out early on

It is also hoped that Yu Shinan can retire from the court soon and enjoy his later years in peace

Even a cough seems to exhaust all of Yu Shinan's strength

Zhang Yang is busy drying the paper

The pulp materials are indeed the secret recipes of each family

Li Yue enjoys this moment very much, while Zhang Yang sits quietly without doing anything

The boss called out, and the patrons squeezed over, blocking the person chasing Zhang Yang.

The shopkeeper replied: "The other party came masked, and it is likely they are unwilling to reveal their name. I sent someone to follow them in order to ascertain their residence, but they lost track of them."

Li Yue carefully extended her slender fingers to tear a piece of paper from the wooden board. She observed the light yellow paper and even took a sniff of it

He moved the lounge chair under the eaves of his house and lay down on it, closing his eyes for a nap.

Yu Shinan said, "Keep looking, keep searching..."

Generally, ordinary shops can only access paper from the outside and cannot purchase pulp.

Zhang Yang is busy mixing the pulp and has also added some powdered substances into it

Li Yue quickly removed all the papers from the wooden board and pretended to carry them back into the room

It seemed that she felt herself awaken, and Li Yue murmured a word.

Do not take advantage of the situation, young man

Unbeknownst to her, Li Yue also woke up; she was standing behind, holding a blanket.

After walking on the street for a while and confirming that no one was following him, Zhang Yang finally returned home

The drawings of ancient people did not have so many annotations, nor did they include any dashed lines or three-view projections

The shopkeeper then said, "I have seen quite a bit of pulp, and I am familiar with the quality of the pulp sent from various publishers. However, this particular pulp is the first of its kind that I have encountered; it seems to have been made using a different secret formula"

After finishing the steamed buns and feeling full, Li Yue comfortably sat in the rocking chair with a cup of hot tea in her hands, no longer wanting to move

The paper is very thick

Zhang Yang opened the lid of the wooden barrel and said, "I have some pulp here and would like to ask the shopkeeper if they need it."

Noticing Zhang Yang's gaze, Li Yue glared with her charming eyes

The shopkeeper, "The one selling the pulp is a young man"

Li Shimin looked at these imperial physicians and let out a long sigh

It was not until noon

Zhang Yang accepted the silver ingot, left the bucket and the paper pulp behind, and turned to leave

I styled Li Yue's hair and watched her put on her outerwear

Yu Shinan is already quite old

The shopkeeper is a discerning individual; upon merely observing the color of the liquid in the barrel, one can immediately tell that it is pulp.

As for the origin, the shopkeeper did not wish to know

In the city of Chang'an, the owner of a stationery shop carried a bucket of paper pulp given by Zhang Yang to a residence on Zhuque Street

Zhang Yang has this habit, and Li Yue has also developed this habit

Li Yue took a sip of hot tea and looked on with great interest

Tear off a piece of dried paper from the board

A group of imperial physicians from the Taiyi Bureau is currently somewhat bewildered

Observing Lu Zhaolin's appearance, Li Shimin said softly, "Enough, you have all done your best"

Yu Shinan's murky eyes observed the tiny fibers in the pulp

If you do not want it, I will pour it all out

Oh? Did you really create paper?

Once again, Zhang Yang stirred the pulp until it was uniform, and then he moved a chair over to sit down

Li Yue let out a cold snort. "How foolish do you think I am in your eyes, to the point of even eating paper?"

The light of the candle is dim, making it difficult to discern the master's expression, while the shopkeeper bows his body. "I have been in the business of stationery for so many years, yet this is the first time I have seen such high-quality paper pulp."

Waiting for the sunlight to dry the pulp, the paper will take shape

June is about to pass on m.hetushu.com

Li Yue has a very slender figure

With this silver ingot, one can purchase a piece of land outside

Perhaps this barrel of pulp was stolen by the young man in front of us

Then, with a bang, the door closed.

Until late at night, Zhang Yang was focused on drawing a picture

The boss, being a ranger by nature, saw Zhang Yang walk into the back of the shop without looking back. Noticing someone following closely behind Zhang Yang, he immediately understood what was happening

The boss opened a jar with a beaming smile, generously offering it to the patrons.

Five guan of money is undoubtedly a profit for the shopkeeper

Zhang Yang's design drawing is based on the blueprints from later generations

The owner of the wine shop saw that it was Zhang Yang and immediately went up to greet him

Li Yue, who is not very tall, furrowed her brows and carefully checked each cut she made, comparing it each time.

As night falls, the warm candlelight is lit in the home

Li Yue looked at herself in the mirror and said, "Maybe."

The voice grew increasingly faint as Yu Shinan, leaning on his cane, walked to the bedside and laboriously lay down.

Those who run wine shops often have the widest network among wanderers

At night, Zhang Yang covered the bucket containing the pulp, then covered his mouth and nose and walked out of the house

Lu Zhaolin had dark circles under his eyes, and before him lay scattered tea leaves

After the two finished breakfast, Li Yue continued to busily weave cloth by the spinning wheel

Lu Zhaolin choked back tears and sniffed, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will certainly strive to study the medical classics diligently from now on"

Pulp is laid out in square pieces on the wooden board

Zhang Yang asked the attendant here, "May I inquire if the shopkeeper is available?" as he placed the wooden barrel in front of the store

Li Yue shook her head in discouragement, "I will make some more changes."

The shopkeeper took out a silver ingot and said: "This silver ingot is for you, do not spill it, it would be a great waste of resources"

After speaking, Lu Zhaolin turned to the pillar beside him and said: "I am willing to die by crashing my head against it to express my gratitude to the world and to Your Majesty for your recognition of my talents"

Li Yue carried all the papers back into the room, as if she had found a treasure

Leave a few sheets for use in the restroom

Yu Shinan, with a slightly hoarse voice, opened his mouth and asked, "Who is the kid selling you the pulp?"

The pulp materials have been passed down through generations, with each generation maintaining strict confidentiality and ensuring that the knowledge is never disclosed to outsiders

Seeing Yu Shinan remain silent, the shopkeeper had no choice but to stand aside

Zhang Yang came to his yard to observe the condition of the paper

The drowsiness of noon descends upon me

When Li Yue returned home, she had just finished making a piece of clothing

The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward to assist.

I still cannot manage to stir-fry tea

As Zhang Yang re-entered the crowd, he looked back and realized he had already shaken off his pursuers

Paper is very expensive, and ordinary households cannot afford to use it for an extended period.

Li Xiaogong also obtained a fine sword, having nearly searched through all the blacksmith shops in Chang'an, yet he still could not find a skilled craftsman to forge it.

The next day, at dawn.

Li Yue, feeling dissatisfied, pursed her lips as she looked at the hem of the clothes at Zhang Yang's knees, remarking that it was neither long nor short, "Take it off, and I will alter it again"

As if one could depart from this world at any moment

Zhang Yang does not want to be captured and then confined in a room where he has to make pulp every day

After looking for a while, the shopkeeper hesitated and said: "The quality of this barrel of pulp is not very good. How about this, I will buy this barrel of pulp for five guan, treating it as a favor to a friend. In the future, if you have more pulp, you can sell it to me."

Who would use paper for toilet purposes

The door of the courtyard, upon hearing the innkeeper's words, invited the innkeeper inside

Li Yue returned holding the finished clothes and, upon seeing the design drawing on the board, asked, "What is this?"

Entering the bustling tavern, Zhang Yang squeezed into the crowded throng, removing his black coat as he walked

Holding the clothes, Li Yue said with a sense of accomplishment in small steps: "Why don't you try it on?"

After a while, Li Yue said while holding the clothes: "Try it on again."

The scholar of Hongwen Pavilion, Yu Shinan, walked with somewhat labored steps to the bucket of pulp before him

Recently, the blacksmiths in Chang'an have been too afraid to open their doors for business
