Chapter 45: A Hypothetical Luncheon
CHAPTER XLV
Before noon, at the gate of the Song Mansion.
Deng Si'er looked at the many guards in front of him, and involuntarily reached out and touched the dagger pinned to his waist.
What a posture this is! So many guards!
Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing stood outside Song Yuqiu's mansion gate, squinting slightly, all of which had inexplicable meanings.
Unexpectedly, this Song Yuqiu set up so many guards outside the mansion gate!
"Hahaha......" A very hearty laugh came out, and the three of them were all in good spirits and looked up.
I saw Song Yuqiu with a group of servants, as well as his son Song Hao, walking towards them quickly when the door of the mansion was just opened, and the laughter was made by Song Yuqiu, who was still squinting his eyes and smiling kindly.
"Lord Zuo can come to my house as a guest, it's really puffy, please, please! Hurry inside please. ”
After standing in front of the three of them, Song Yuqiu arched his hand slightly and said with a smile.
"Where is it, since I have come to Tuzhou City, how can I not come?"
This way of meeting, even the left idiot can't escape the polite words, but how to listen to it, the left idiot's words seem to have another layer of meaning.
Song Yuqiu didn't seem to hear it, and still looked at Deng Si'er and Chu Jing behind Zuo Idiot with a smile, and said:
"Three, please come inside."
After speaking, he led the three of Zuo Idiot into the Song Mansion with a smile and a smile.
This Song Yuqiu is worthy of being the governor of Tuzhou for so many years, and his mansion looks quite large, and it will take a while to walk from the door to the main hall.
Deng Si'er followed Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing along the way, listening to Song Yuqiu introduce the situation in the house, looking left and right.
In this Song Yuqiu's mansion, there are really not many guards.
Suddenly, Deng Si'er felt as if something was always behind him, staring at him all the time.
He pretended to be curious and turned his head slightly, and the afterglow of his eyes quietly glanced, and when he saw the scene behind him, he immediately turned his head back.
Okay, you Song Hao, you really can't do it. Deng Si'er let out a slight snort from his nose.
It turned out that the one who was secretly staring at Deng Si'er was Song Yuqiu's son, who was also a student at Chongyang Academy, and the villain who was rampant and domineering in the academy and was cleaned up by Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing, Song Hao.
Just when Deng Si'er turned his head just now, he looked at Song Hao viciously. Obviously, Song Hao still holds a grudge against them.
When everyone entered the main hall of the Song Mansion, Song Hao's face put away all the emotions that should not be revealed, normal can no longer be normal, and he has a respectful appearance.
Deng Si'er glanced at Song Hao, and Song Hao actually nodded and smiled at him, which shocked Deng Si'er's heart.
What a two-faced governor's son! Song Yuqiu, an old fox, really adopted a son who was the same as him.
Song Yuqiu was instructing his subordinates to pour tea and wait, beckoning the three of them to sit down. At this time, Song Yuqiu glanced at Deng Si'er and Chu Jing beside Zuo Idiot a few more times, and asked Zuo Idiot with a smile:
"Lord Zuo, I forgot to ask, I wonder if Lord Zuo can tell me, ...... these two are?"
Deng Si'er and Chu Jing both looked at Zuo Idiot when they heard this, and when they saw Zuo Idiot nodding lightly at them, they all stood up again, bowed their hands, and introduced each other:
"I'm just a Jianghu person, my name is not enough to worry about, I have heard of the Tuzhou Governor Gao Feng Liang Festival for a long time, and when I see it today, it really deserves its name." This is what Chu Jing said.
"That's... My name is Deng Si'er, and I came to Tuzhou for the first time and met Governor Song. This is what Deng Si'er said.
Song Yuqiu listened to the two of them introduce themselves differently, but still did not change his smile, and did not mind Chu Jing concealing his name, but said gently:
"Huh...... The two of them are extraordinary at first glance, presumably the friends of Lord Zuo must be extraordinary people. ”
"Governor Song praised it falsely, and it is a blessing that we can see Governor Song." Chu Jing said with a smile.
Deng Si'er also laughed twice with 'hehe'.
The meet and greet session was revealed.
Next, if it weren't for the fact that Deng Si'er and Chu Jing were still sitting in the hall, it would almost become a separate conversation between Zuo Idiot and Song Yuqiu.
Its contents are as follows:
"Lord Zuo, I don't know how Lord Lingzun is doing lately? I also met him when I returned to Beijing last year to report on my work, and he was really powerful. ”
"Where, my father is in good health, thank you Lord Song for your concern."
"Lord Zuo, where is your mother? In the past, when I was still an official in the capital, Neiko was often invited by the eldest princess of Chunyang to go to the house to listen to the play, and her demeanor and demeanor were really unparalleled in the world. ”
"Lord Song has won the prize."
…………….
Deng Si'er listened to it, Song Yuqiu didn't leave the things in the capital back then, and Zuo idiot, you are a 'Lord Zuo', and I am a 'Lord Song', and Deng Si'er is about to fall asleep when he hears it.
So, Deng Si'er began to think wildly.
I heard that Song Yuqiu, the governor of Tuzhou, has been in office for several years, right? Do you remember so clearly what happened when he was an official in the capital?
Since he has never forgotten the matter of being an official in the capital, why did this Song Yuqiu invite himself to come to Tuzhou to be the governor? Isn't it okay to continue to be a celebrity in front of his emperor in the capital?
This left idiot, I usually don't see that I can say a few more words, this is good, this Song Yuqiu can be regarded as greeting your whole family, grinding and chirping, this kind of funless topic is also thanks to people like Zuo idiot, who can talk about it for so long!
Chu Jing can't sit still like Deng Si'er, after all, Chu Jing is old, has been trained in the rivers and lakes for many years, and is calm and unusual.
Chu Jing sat aside with the teacup, quietly listening to the conversation between Song Yuqiu and Zuo Idiot, listening for a while, then opened the teacup and took a sip, with a natural attitude and a very generous attitude.
Song Yuqiu was talking to Zuo Idiot, while silently paying attention to Chu Jing and Deng Si'er, and after observing, he naturally made a conclusion in his heart about the two of them.
finally waited for the conversation between Zuo Idiot and Song Yuqiu to end, and then Song Yuqiu stood up and said to Zuo Idiot and the three of them:
"I've already ordered someone to prepare a meal and delicacies, if you don't dislike it, then please move to the inner hall and have a good time?"
"Lord Song is really polite, in this case, we don't need to be polite, it's better to be respectful." Zuo Idiot bowed slightly and thanked him.
"Hahaha...... Have a good drink? Good...... Jianghu people love to drink, but Lord Song said that he was on the bottom line, presumably Governor Song's wine should be the best! ”
When Chu Jing heard that there was wine, he was very happy and said with a smile.
Deng Si'er looked at the three people who were talking, and thought, really, no one is sincere, what are you pretending! Don't be tired of panicking.
Everyone moved to the dinner table and sat down one after another.
Song Yuqiu sat in the right position, Zuo Idiot sat down next to Song Yuqiu's right hand, and Chu Jing and Deng Si'er also sat down on Zuo Idiot's right hand.
And opposite them, sat Song Yuqiu's son, Song Hao.
Song Yuqiu looked at the table full of dishes, poured a glass of wine for Zuo Idiot, and said with a smile:
"Lord Zuo, this is the most famous osmanthus brew in Tuzhou City, but you have to taste it. You two, you are free. ”
After ten years of drinking, Song Yuqiu began to ask:
"Lord Zuo, I don't know if you came to Tuzhou City this time for fun? Still is...... Business trip? ”
Deng Si'er drank the mellow osmanthus brew, and nodded with satisfaction while chattering.
That's right! That's the point!
