As the largest restaurant in He County, Tongfu Restaurant is very favored by the dignitaries and nobles in He County. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, in the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, He Zhutou was feasting with a few brothers.
"Master He, I heard that your nephew also took the children's exam this time?"
After a few glasses of wine, a few catchers quickly began to chat.
"What did the little brute mention him, he didn't talk about his studies at all, and he bullied the boys in the private school all day long, and he almost killed a poor boy last time, if I hadn't carried him around, he would have been locked up in prison a long time ago. Don't mention him, I get angry when I mention him! ”
He Zhutou glared, looking very dissatisfied with his nephew, but there was a hint of doting in his eyes.
How could a few catchers not know this, this catcher has no children under his knees, and he loves his nephew very much.
He Ye said with a smile, children, it's normal to be naughty and mischievous. Zhang Heng, this kid is also a big one we have seen since childhood, don't look at him as a fool on weekdays, but with a lot of cleverness, in my opinion, this children's exam does not say the top three, the top ten must have him. When the time comes, the brothers will be counting on Master He to treat you to dinner......"
At this time, an obscene-looking catcher spoke.
He Zhutou knew that the other party was complimenting him, but he still felt very useful when he heard this.
"Okay, just say this to you Lu Dahai, and when the list comes out, we will go to this Tongfu restaurant to drink without getting drunk! This article is ......"
He Zhutou was about to say something more, but the official seal pinned to his body suddenly shook wildly, and it seemed that there was some emergency.
"He Ye, is there a situation?"
The other fast catchers were too low in rank and didn't have official seals yet, so they had to ask.
He Zhutou did not answer, but connected to the official seal through the immortal qi of the literary position and checked the information inside.
Lu Dahai noticed that He Zhutou's face became a little strange, and he couldn't tell what it tasted like.
"What's the matter, Master He, did you say something?"
"I didn't ...... Nothing, keep eating. ”
He Zhutou quickly recovered, and several people didn't ask when they saw that he didn't want to say more.
After eating, He Zhutou called Lu Dahai aside and handed him an envelope.
"Give this to the Li family, and you don't have to ask about the rest."
Although Lu Dahai was very puzzled, he still suppressed his curiosity in his stomach, he knew that there were some things that he couldn't manage with his status.
He Zhutou also took a fancy to Lu Dahai's cleverness, so he handed over the letter to him.
The Li family is located in a mountain villa outside the county seat, and no one in the whole county knows that Lu Dahai soon arrived in front of the Li Mansion.
Lu Dahai originally thought that with the power of the Li family, he estimated that others would not care about it. How do you know that after Lu Dahai handed over the letter to the porter, the other party invited him into the Li Mansion.
Lu Dahai didn't think he had such a big face, the only explanation was the letter, thinking of this, Lu Dahai couldn't help but be a little curious about the content of the letter.
But this thought was quickly suppressed by Lu Dahai, because his attention was soon shocked by the magnificent scene in front of him.
There are all kinds of pavilions, carved railings and jade masonry, and even the servants who come and go are wearing fine silk, so you can imagine how deep the Li family's heritage is.
Lu Dahai followed the person who led the way, walked for half an hour, passed through a large garden, and then came to a secluded courtyard.
"Young Master Cousin, someone from the yamen is here."
The servant who led the way lowered his head slightly, and the etiquette was very thoughtful, and Lu Dahai couldn't help but bow his head under his influence, for fear of doing something wrong.
"Well, got it, let him in."
At this time, a crisp male voice came from the courtyard, although his tone was very flat, but if you listen carefully, you can still feel a kind of arrogance revealed in his bones.
Lu Dahai didn't mind this, he knew his status, and it was already a great honor for him to see him in person.
Thinking of this, Lu Dahai took a deep breath and straightened his body, so as not to lose his courtesy.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lu Dahai's eyes were attracted by the young man sitting on the stone bench reading a book, this young man looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, but he had an outstanding temperament, giving people a feeling that he could not be forced to look at.
"In the sea of Xialu, on the order of He Zhutou, I came to deliver a letter to Li Gongzi."
Lu Dahai retracted his gaze and bowed respectfully.
Although Lu Dahai and Li Kai are both talented scholars, Lu Dahai still doesn't dare to make mistakes.
"Oh? Show me ......."
Li Kai took the letter, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
"This little brute isn't dead yet! Moreover, it has become a ......"
Li Kai slapped the table hard, and the teacup that was placed aside suddenly fell to the ground and turned into countless pieces.
Lu Dahai didn't know why Li Kai was suddenly so angry, so he had to stand quietly aside, not daring to speak.
"Thank you Lu for catching quickly, Young Master Ben still has something to do, so I won't send it to you."
After Li Kai learned that Su Xiaolan had become a saint, he was very unhappy, and he didn't have the leisure to say anything to Lu Dahai, so he waved his hand and let Lu Dahai leave.
How dare Lu Dahai be dissatisfied, and hurriedly leave, but when he went out, the servant who led the way just now still gave Lu Dahai a few taels of silver, which made Lu Dahai sigh.
"The family is different......"
After sending Lu Dahai away, Li Kai also went out with him, and no one knew what he was doing.
In order to help Su Xiaolazy buy things, Zhao Hu deliberately took a day off from Shopkeeper Jia.
But what made Zhao Hu speechless was that although he had been working for several years, Shopkeeper Jia still mercilessly deducted his salary for one day.
According to Su Xiaolazi's meaning, she wanted to hold a beautiful funeral for Su Lian, and Zhao Hu did not save money.
He has also saved a lot of belongings over the years, and the sum of the front and back is almost ten taels of silver, plus the one or two taels of silver given to him by Su Xiaolazi, it is more than enough for the funeral.
Of course, this still can't be compared with big families, you must know that these eleven taels are enough for ordinary people to save money and eat for a year.
In the evening, Zhao Hu came to Su Xiaolazi's house with the guys from the coffin shop, and there were a lot of things on the cart behind, and there were even a lot of chrysanthemums, and Zhao Hu didn't know what Su Xiaolazy was using these chrysanthemums.
In his memory, he had never seen a funeral that needed flowers.
"Little ...... Little mercy, how do you think you should get these things? ”
Zhao Hu subconsciously wanted to be called "little lazy", and after realizing that he was wrong, he immediately changed his words, afraid that others would see what clues.
"Brother Zhao Hu, you have a lot of strength, I'll trouble you later...... My sister put it in the coffin......"
Su Xiaolan said and took a new dress from Zhao Hu's hand, which Su Xiaolan specially prepared for Su Lian.
