Chapter 145: Catching the Wind and Feasting Wine Strengthens Courage

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang recruited more than 700 soldiers on a trip, Guo Zixing was very happy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info, especially a few of them with a tiger's back and a burly body, let him admire it greatly, he praised Zhu Yuanzhang a few words, considering that Zhu Yuanzhang only had more than 100 people under his command, he temporarily assigned these soldiers recruited by Zhongli to Zhu Yuanzhang's command, and encouraged everyone to follow Zhu Yuanzhang to work hard.

Guo Tianxu's eyes were obscure, and he secretly scolded his father for being confused, Zhu Yuanzhang already had prestige in the army, and it was not easy to cut him into a bare-bones commander, wouldn't it be a resurgence to get these hundreds of people. But he just made Guo Zixing unhappy, and it was really inconvenient to jump out at this time to make irresponsible remarks, so he had to temporarily suppress the jealousy in his heart and force a smile to congratulate the new recruits in the army.

A few days later, after Xu Da and everyone reported to the barracks and settled down, Ma Xiuying held a banquet in the mansion to entertain everyone.

Since hearing that Tang He praised Ma Xiuying to the sky, Xu Da and the others have long been unable to hold back, and they want to see this heroine among women.

They thought that Ma Xiuying was a lady who smiled toothlessly, who would have thought that Ma Xiuying was actually dressed in a military uniform, tied with a ponytail, full of energy, and a pair of big feet walked in a hurry, and when she saw everyone, she generously blessed and said: "All the soldiers come from afar, don't be restrained, just treat this place as your home, eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, don't be disappointed." ”

Only this outfit shortened the distance between everyone with one sentence, and what they were most afraid of was to see that kind of delicate and pretentious little woman, who made people eat and eat badly, and dare not drink, if the men's party could not be enjoyed, it would be boring.

"Xu Da has seen his sister-in-law, and we are all vulgar men, so don't be annoyed by the house. Xu Da stepped forward and bowed in return, secretly looking at Ma Xiuying. I thought to myself: This woman has a kind face, treats me kindly, behaves calmly and generously, no matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like a ruthless character who will tie up my mother, could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang is scolding me? It is possible that this kid has a bad stomach in the past, maybe this time it is also to ask me to join the army, and deliberately said something to scare people.

Ma Xiuying smiled heartily, "You soldiers can fight side by side with your husband, it is really a blessing that my husband cultivated in his last life, and I am afraid that I will not entertain you well and neglect you." Come in, and if you need anything, just give me a command. ”

Everyone entered the mansion, and Ma Xiuying called for a banquet.

All kinds of delicacies were served like water, and the old daughter Hong piled up several large vats in the corner of the wall, so that everyone was full of joy when they saw it. Alcohol is not allowed in the barracks, but this kind of private reception can be an exception. Everyone secretly swallowed their saliva, thinking that they must have a good drink.

Ma Xiuying toasted a glass of wine at each table and retired. Without the female dependents by his side, everyone drank happily.

Xu Dazan said: "It's better to be famous than to meet, I met my sister-in-law today, I was so reasonable, and my eldest brother is so blessed!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, very satisfied. The lady is really face-saving today, and she is very polite.

Zheng Yulin drank too much, his head was not bright, and he exposed Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom in public with a big tongue, "I see that Mrs. Sister-in-law is not the kind of wicked woman who has to kidnap people and force people to change their surnames as the eldest brother said, why should the eldest brother be afraid of Mrs. Sister-in-law?"

"Uh, Zhu Zhen is afraid of guilt?" everyone turned their eyes to Zhu Yuanzhang. Except for Xu Da, Tang and a few particularly good brothers who knew the inside story, everyone else didn't know that Ma Xiuying asked Zhu Yuanzhang to find three big heroes, and even asked Xu Da to join the army by any means.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was flushed, and he wanted to kill Zheng Yulin on the spot, and smiled at everyone embarrassedly: "This kid has drunk too much, don't pay attention to him." How dare my lady order me to do anything, I have the final say in the house. ”

Xu Da Moran: After drinking and spitting out the truth, Zhu Yuanzhang finally told the truth. I'll just say, Ma Xiuying doesn't look like an evil person at all, but Zhu Yuanzhang is still insidious. Since then, I have listed Ma Xiuying and Zhu Yuanzhang as sincere and insidious positive and negative teaching materials in my heart.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was blowing to everyone, "I called her one, she didn't dare two, I told her to kneel, she didn't dare to stand......"

Ma Xiuying gritted her teeth angrily when she heard this, and quietly told Xun Ying to prepare a washboard and put it in the bedroom. Hmph, my mother will let you kneel until dawn tonight!

Everyone didn't believe it, and coaxed: "Mrs. Sister-in-law is as delicate as you say, since Mrs. Sister-in-law listens to you in everything, do you dare to find another woman in front of Mrs. Sister-in-law?"

This man drinks together, and his favorite thing to talk about is women. If they knew that these words would reach Ma Xiuying's ears, it was estimated that a hundred people would not dare to say it, but at this time, everyone was drunk, so why didn't they care so much.

Zhu Yuanzhang was hot-headed, let go out, and shouted: "Let Li Qi'er come over." ”

Li Qi'er rushed into the hall when she heard the sound, bowed to everyone with infinite grace, stood in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and asked softly: "What do you have to tell my uncle?" Originally, there were other servants to do this kind of thing, and Li Qi'er wanted to become Zhu Yuanzhang's woman as soon as possible, so she wandered around Zhu Yuanzhang when she had nothing to do, and was overjoyed when she heard Zhu Yuanzhang's call, and rushed in regardless of etiquette, righteousness and shame.

"I still need to find it, your sister-in-law has already arranged it for me. Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Li Qi'er into his arms, lifted her face, and proudly showed off: "This maid is beautiful, right? ”

In the past few days, Ma Xiuying has been arranging the affairs of her two sisters-in-law and several nephews and nieces, and she has not had time to discuss Li Qi'er's situation with Zhu Yuanzhang in detail. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know the twists and turns, just thinking that since Li Qi'er said that Ma Xiuying agreed, of course he would not live up to Ma Xiuying's good intentions, anyway, Li Qi'er would be his person sooner or later, so he would take advantage of the wine to act recklessly.

Li Qi'er seemed to be frightened by Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden move, she wanted to explain but didn't know how to explain, she looked at everyone, she was at a loss, and simply buried her head in Zhu Yuanzhang's arms, looking like she was picking.

When everyone saw the shy and timid Li Qi'er, they were immediately shocked, and a long list of Ha Lazi flowed out, "Beautiful, beautiful, such a beauty is actually a maid arranged by my sister-in-law for my eldest brother, and my eldest brother is really beautiful and blessed, which makes people envious." ”

A few people even wailed in their hearts: It turns out that the good chaff is reserved for the pig arch, why is such a beautiful woman not her own!

Yuan Xing changed color, and he couldn't believe that Li Qi'er would become Zhu Yuanzhang's woman. In fact, over the years, he has long understood that Li Qi'er's heart is not in him, but Li Qi'er has not married for a day, and he still has a glimmer of hope for a day. At this time, the picture of the two embracing each other deeply pierced his eyes, and he didn't know whether to blame Li Qi'er, Zhu Yuanzhang, Ma Xiuying or himself, and he couldn't dilute the loss in his heart after pouring several sips of wine.

Tang He secretly wondered that Ma Xiuying attached great importance to Zhu Yuanzhang, otherwise he would not have used various means to force Zhu Yuanzhang to marry her, he thought that Ma Xiuying would not let Zhu Yuanzhang take a concubine in the future, but he didn't expect to find a room for Zhu Yuanzhang so soon. But this is someone's housework, and he laughed it off when he saw it.

Li Qi'er's docile appearance pleased Zhu Yuanzhang, he laughed, asked Li Qi'er to feed a skin wine mouth-to-mouth, and then proudly asked her to step back in countless envious, jealous and hateful eyes, and continued to drink with everyone.

Xun Ying hurriedly told Ma Xiuying what happened in the hall, she was even more angry than Ma Xiuying, and angrily scolded Li Qi'er for being shameless and shameless, and the public dared to behave so shamefully.

Ma Xiuying bit her lip and was annoyed. She advised herself over and over again that this was not her previous life, and Zhu Yuanzhang would inevitably have other women, but when she really faced this situation, she was still uncomfortable like a knife. She even wanted to rush to Zhu Yuanzhang and ask him loudly why he was sorry for herself, but in fact she could only hide in the house and cry. Because it is natural for this worldly housewife to arrange other women for her husband, because Zhu Yuanzhang must establish his authority in front of his subordinates...... So she can't and doesn't want to quarrel with Zhu Yuanzhang, even if Li Qi'er's matter is not out of her original intention.

Xun Ying could only verbally scold Li Qi'er for two sentences, she knew that Ma Xiuying had no way to do this kind of thing, she was even more worried about Ma Xiuying's mood, and persuaded: "Although my uncle accepted Li Qi'er, what he cares about most in his heart is you, don't be angry and cheapen others." ”

Ma Xiuying cried for a while and slowly wiped away her tears. A popular joke on the Internet in her previous life suddenly popped up in her mind: "Life is like being raped, if you are powerless to resist, it is better to close your eyes and bear it." In the past, she felt that this bullshit did not make sense, but now she deeply understands the helplessness in it, even if she is unwilling in every way, she can only accept her fate, in this world where men are inferior to women, even Empress Wu Zetian can't change the current secular concept, let alone her. However, it's one thing to figure it out, in the end, I couldn't bear this breath in my heart, so I put out a bowl of black chicken and codonopsis soup for the guests, and added a lot of mustard peppercorns for Xun Ying to serve to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The hall was full of laughter and mixed cups. Xun Yingpi walked in without smiling and said, "Uncle, Mrs. said that she was afraid that you soldiers would drink too much wine and hurt your body, so I asked the slave maid to send a bowl of ginseng soup to all the soldiers to nourish their stomachs and continue to drink again." ”

"Mrs. Sister-in-law is too virtuous. Everyone was flattered, took the soup bowl and drank it all, smacked their lips, and praised: "This soup is fresh but not greasy, it strengthens the stomach and warms the spleen, and it is difficult for my sister-in-law to have a heart." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang also picked up the bowl and slammed it to the end, his mouth and tongue were numb in an instant, there seemed to be a fire burning in his throat, but his eyes were sour and about to drop tears.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's cheeks twitching, everyone couldn't help but sigh, and asked in unison, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

"The soup is a little hot......" Zhu Yuanzhang was embarrassed to say that Ma Xiuying was fixing him, and swallowed this dumb loss with a smile.

"Haha, the eldest brother is not thinking about his sister-in-law's wife. Or you go and accompany your sister-in-law, and we'll eat and drink here by ourselves." The crowd, who did not know the truth, laughed obscenely.

"Drink, drink, I'll accompany you to get drunk and rest!" Zhu Yuanzhang poured three glasses of wine in a row and ate many dishes before his mouth slowly regained consciousness. How could he still have Xuanqi's thoughts, and when he thought that he didn't know what kind of punishment he would receive when he waited, he didn't dare to go back to the room to face Ma Xiuying.
