Chapter 269: Small Gathering
The Jia family dined at the banquet outside, and the little maids who came with them were arranged to the back, close to the place where the servants lived, there were many courtyards there, and it was enough to find a larger courtyard and put more than ten or twenty tables.
The old ladies in front of them have a heart of comparison, and the little girls also have this heart, these years, the old farmers and small people outside are not very good, the Jia family is becoming more and more prosperous, and they also have a comparison to talk about, but they don't have the master's subtle and euphemistic ability, and they are as noisy as the vegetable market.
Ping'an is the little guy next to the third master of Rongguo Mansion, listening to this noisy dispute, he couldn't help frowning, it's too undignified, when he was about to endure it, his shoulders sank, he turned his head to look over, and said with a smile,
"Why are you here?"
A tall, thin man pointed out and said, "I have a good place to go, I wonder if you are interested?"
Ping'an was impatient and noisy, it was better to go anywhere than to stay here, how could he not go, nodded, and followed the tall man out of the door.
The two walked out of the courtyard, spared out from the east side of the moon gate, walked back to touch the time of a cup of tea, and came to the back of the courtyard, where there was a small inverted seat, and the tall man led the safe into this inverted seat.
As soon as I entered the house, there was a small kitchen, which was abandoned later, but the pot or something was good, prepare some wine, meat and vegetables, and put some seasonings, it can also be used, there are three or five people in it, there are men and women, the water vapor is heavy, it is not clear for a while, there are three or five dishes on the table, not more abundant than the outside, but it is extraordinarily kind.
When everyone in the house saw the tall man come in, they greeted each other,
"The owner is here, please sit down quickly! Where have you been, why did you come here now, come here, come on, have a glass of wine as an apology!"
The tall man took the glass very happily, took a sip, and then said, "I drank this wine, don't hurt me again." ”
"When did we hurt you, it's a joke!"
"Why didn't you hurt me, what kind of proprietor am I, a serious proprietor sitting at a banquet outside!
"How many people do we have here, just you are from Ning Guofu, you are not the owner, how can anyone else be the owner?"
Si Qi was born tall and plump, and her temperament is completely different from her master, she is the most powerful character, there are many brothers in the family, and she grew up in a pile of men, except for her cousin Pan You'an, I haven't seen her have any shy emotions towards that man.
This will be like this, in the small kitchen, she is a girl's family, and she doesn't see anything uncomfortable.
The tall man said, "I won't fight with you for this anymore, I invited another person, do you know each other?"
The tall man stepped out of the way, and Ping An was exposed, and Si Qi shouted, "Ping An, why are you here?"
Ping'an raised his eyebrows, he was not a recognized student, he immediately found a seat and sat down, found a clean bowl, poured wine, and said, "Just allow you Miss Siqi to come over, why can't you let me come?"
Si Qi snapped, and a chopstick hit his hand to pour wine, and said, "What kind of wine are you drinking, children!"
Ping'an was beaten so much that he almost fell to the ground, and said, "My good sister, you are so much older than me, why do you take care of me!"
A short and fat old man next to Ping'an, with a smile like Maitreya Buddha on his face, is also the oldest person here, and persuaded him,
"Si Qi, the peace is not small, and the masters in front don't need us to serve, just let him drink some!"
Ping'an said, "That's it, it's still Uncle Quan's sensibility, it's no wonder that Second Master Daoyun values Uncle Quan so much!"
Humpty Dumpty, eh, Uncle Quan is Jia Yun, the old man of Yun's second master's family, when he was young, Jia Yun and his old son went, only orphans and widows were left, life was difficult, Uncle Quan still did not give up, fortunately, with the help of Jia Jing and other Jia clans, Jia Yun was also up, and their lives were much better.
Uncle Quan and Si Qi knew each other, but there were still two people who didn't know each other, so Ping An asked the tall man,
"Brother He won't introduce me, who are the other two brothers?"
The tall man's surname is He, he is a small steward in Ningguo's Mansion, he has some skills and abilities in Ningfu, and he is helpful, so he has some close friends, Si Qi, Uncle Quan, and Ping'an are among them, and the other two men also know each other like this.
Brother He pointed to a lean and shrewd man and said,
"This person is the shopkeeper, the most tolerant, his family grows fresh vegetables is more fresh than others, and the joy of the old ladies and gentlemen in the house, has always been the supplier of winter vegetables in our house, the most is a rich and oily, people and atmosphere, if you have any difficulties for a while, just go to find him!"
The shopkeeper arched his hand and said, "Brother He said too much, I'm just a mud leg farmer and a copper stinker who walks the streets and villages, where is there anything capable, but there are still two spare money, if anyone is really in trouble for a while, just come to me." ”
Brother He then pointed to a handsome man and said, "This is our only master here, Jia Ai, Uncle Ai!"
The handsome man waved his hand and said, "What did Brother He say, what kind of master am I, except for the surname Jia, the others, maybe not as many as the few people here, just talk to me as an ordinary person." ”
Shopkeeper Qi flattered, "What else do you need for this, your surname Jia is the greatest ability!"
Uncle Quan also said, "Yes, Uncle Ai is young, I'm afraid I don't remember much, before the old lady rectified the family, the Jia family was no better off than others, thanks to the old lady!"
When Brother He heard this, he saw that he seemed to be quite touched, so he asked, "Uncle Quan seems to have something to say, please tell me!"
Uncle Quan took a sip of wine, looked around, and said,
"You, I'm afraid you haven't suffered, Brother He doesn't need to say it in Ningfu, Ningfu has always been the leader of the Jia family, Brother Ping'an and Sister Si Qi are both born in Rongfu, and they can't be hungry and can't freeze you, don't say it, since your father started your family has had three or five hundred gold, Uncle Ai is young and hasn't experienced it"
Listening to him chatter so slowly, Si Qi couldn't help it, and said, "Uncle Quan, don't talk about this, just say what you have!"
Uncle Quan laughed twice and said, "You young people, you just don't have patience!"
Ping'an drank Si Qi and said, "Don't worry, listen to Uncle Quan's talk about the ancients slowly." ”
