The Great Tang Dynasty's Trans-Dimensional Conference: Little Rhinoceros Arrives
Chapter 433 Mooncakes
After admiring the two little princesses for a while, the old couple's gaze fell on Lin Fan again.
"Hey kid, whose car is that outside? Is it your friend's too?"
Old Lin is a bit of a car enthusiast, and he could recognize the car's logo. He had seen it online before, and it would cost close to a million yuan to buy.
Lin Fan didn't speak, but just shook his head helplessly.
"No? Could it be that you really bought it?"
"Otherwise what? Would anyone lend me their car so easily? Don't worry, I made some money recently, and it was all clean money. You don't need to worry about anything."
"How can I not worry? You've only been gone a short time!" Old Lin muttered.
"That's right. There are so many scams out there these days, so you absolutely mustn't go down those wrong paths! Your dad and I don't expect you to make a lot of money. Besides, your dad and I have already saved up almost all the dowry money for your wedding, and we've also saved up for your house. Your task now is just to find a girlfriend as soon as possible."
Well, we've come full circle. Lin Fan felt a headache coming on. He had originally planned to stay home for a couple more days, but seeing the situation, it was better to make a run for it as soon as possible.
"Mom and Dad, it's almost time, we should go back now."
"No, you're leaving again after only half a day?" Cao Xueqing tightened her embrace around the little princess.
She really wanted to say, "Go if you want, leave the two kids behind," but that was completely unrealistic.
Looking at the two little babies in front of them, Cao Xueqing and Fellow Daoist Lin were reluctant to part with them. After thinking for a while, they finally nodded.
"Alright, alright, let's go back. We've been out all day, their parents must be worried."
"Kid, when are you coming back next time? Two kids... can you bring them along?" Fellow Daoist Lin asked tentatively.
Lin Fan was about to shake his head in refusal, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "I can come back."
"Ah? Really? That's great, that's great." Fellow Daoist Lin and Cao Xueqing were overjoyed.
As the moment of parting approached, the elderly couple had prepared themselves mentally, but to their surprise, the little princess suddenly burst into tears.
"Waaaaah~ Lin Fan, can't we not go back?"
After only a day together, the little guy was also reluctant to part with Cao Xueqing. The main reason was that Cao Xueqing's cooking skills were much better than Lin Fan's.
The little princess knew that after this departure, it would be a very long time before she could eat her grandmother's cooking again.
"Sizi, let's come back and play again next time we have time," Lin Fan said softly.
"No~" The little princess shook her head firmly, then looked at Cao Xueqing and said, "Then Grandma, can you come with us?"
When Cao Xueqing heard the little princess's words, she was momentarily tempted, but she also felt a little reluctant to leave her husband alone at home.
Thinking of this, she shook her head at the little princess: "Xiaobao, you and Fan'er go back first, and Grandma will come to the city to see you when she has time, okay?"
The little princess pouted upon hearing this, and tears welled up in her eyes again, but she quickly held them back.
The little princess wiped her eyes and said in a childish voice, "Okay, Grandma, pinky promise~"
"Okay, okay." Seeing this, Cao Xueqing immediately extended her little finger and hooked it with Xiao Sizi's little finger.
"Pinky promise, for a hundred years, no take-backs."
"Okay, don't change it~"
..........
The Great Tang Taiji Hall.
Today's court assembly had already ended, but Li Shimin sent a message to summon everyone back.
This puzzled many ministers. When everyone returned to the Taiji Hall, they were all drawn to something covered by a red cloth.
"Old Hei, guess what's in there?" Cheng Yaojin nudged Yuchi Gong beside him with his elbow.
Yuchi Gong glanced at him nonchalantly and said, "How would I know?"
"Tch, you old blackie are too stupid. I, Lao Cheng, really don't want to play with you."
"You're smart, do you know what's in there?" Yuchi Gong rolled his eyes at Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin was taken aback, then shook his head: "I don't know."
Yuchi Gong: "*******"
Soon, amidst everyone's waiting, Li Shimin strolled into the main hall. He then waved to Wu She, who was standing to the side, and said, "Distribute them."
Wu She quickly clapped his hands towards the outside of the hall. As a group of eunuchs entered the hall, the court officials were all bewildered, wondering what Li Shimin was up to.
Soon, the red cloth was gently lifted, revealing what was placed inside.
Looking at the neatly stacked colorful boxes below, the ministers exchanged bewildered glances.
After everyone had received their boxes, looking at the exquisite gift boxes in their hands, Changsun Wuji was the first to ask:
"Your Majesty, what is this?"
Recently, more and more strange and unusual things have appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Not only are there newly opened restaurants, but also those two supermarkets, which have now become places that these ministers are vying to visit.
They were very curious about what treasures Li Shimin would send them this time.
"This thing is called a mooncake; it's a type of food."
The Mid-Autumn Festival in the Tang Dynasty had passed for quite some time. A few days ago, when Lin Fan mentioned to Chang Le that he was going home, he also bought her a few boxes of mooncakes to take with her to the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin understood the meaning behind this, and since the mooncakes tasted quite good, he specially asked Lin Fan to order several hundred more boxes to be sent to the Tang Dynasty.
He kept the hundred boxes of slightly higher quality for himself and distributed them as rewards to the ministers.
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin couldn't wait to open the box in his hand.
"Haha, since this food is a gift from His Majesty, then I, Old Cheng, will taste it for you all first!"
He took out a mooncake from the box and examined it for a long time.
Everyone craned their necks to see what this so-called mooncake looked like.
"This thing looks quite exquisite!"
"Nonsense, since it was bestowed by His Majesty, how could it be anything ordinary?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin gave Wu She a wink, and Wu She quickly walked down the steps to Cheng Yaojin's side.
"My lord, let me help you."
Cheng Yaojin handed the mooncake over directly. Wushe took it and simply tore open the opening, revealing the mooncake inside to Cheng Yaojin.
"My lord, please have some."
"Haha, thanks a lot!"
Upon receiving the mooncake, Cheng Yaojin first sniffed it, and a fragrant aroma immediately filled his nose. The next second, he opened his mouth and put the entire mooncake into his mouth.
The ministers standing nearby all watched Cheng Yaojin's reaction with bated breath.
Cheng Yaojin didn't speak, nor could he speak, as his mouth was now completely filled with mooncakes.
