5. Thank you
In the Jingbei Courtyard, Uncle Lang and his uncle were pushing cups and setting them up.
Tong Gu glanced at the red lotus beside him and motioned for her to pour wine, "Brother-in-law, this time it is thanks to your kind words that my father has found this position as the deputy conductor for my brother, and my brother respects you." He held the wine cup high and greeted Feng Yuan courteously.
"Do you and I still talk about your friendship? Now that Zijian has taken the post, he should be more stable in the future, and don't make his father-in-law angry again. ”
Feng Yuan's brother-in-law's surname is Tong Minggu, his words are strong, he treats people sincerely and has a good temperament, and the two have always gotten along very well, so it is inevitable that he will be more serious at this time.
"Hey, brother-in-law, you really wronged your brother. You don't know, my brother's mother-in-law said to my father that my brother was not, and she could say that it was murder and arson. My father attacked his brother indiscriminately, and his brother was only occasionally contradicted. ”
When it comes to his mother-in-law, Tong Gu is full of complaints. With a chopstick roast beef, he became addicted to talking, "Just like the day of Shangyuan, my brother and Zhang Kongzhang went to eat and drink, but Kong Zhang had a dispute with an old man for some reason, and the two of them also started to fight, and the younger brothers went to persuade peace." ”
Speaking of this, he was a little indignant, "Brother also took a few punches, really, who is this recruiting to provoke whom?!" ”
took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, "I had already pulled the two of them apart, but who knew that Kong Zhang took out a dagger and stabbed him while his younger brothers were not paying attention, and the old man died on the spot." Hey, you weren't in Bianjing at the time, this matter was very troublesome, and my brother's grandmother actually told my father that the reason why Kong Zhang committed the murder was because of my brother's help, and the conscience of heaven and earth, what does it have to do with my brother? ”
He sneered, "Zhang Kongzhang is lucky, there are people in his brother's palace who are the right politicians, and he hasn't even passed the court, so he sent some money to the old man's house and settled the matter." What about my brother, I have been beaten by my father for a long time, my father, brother-in-law, do you say that my brother has been moldy for eight lifetimes? Hmph, but my grandmother said that my father would believe everything, and I was evil, brother-in-law, you said that my brother is this."
Tong Gu stopped talking suddenly, his face turned red, and he suddenly remembered that his mother-in-law was not the mother-in-law of the person in front of him?!
"Uh, I'm sorry, my brother really shouldn't say that about his mother-in-law, it's really disrespectful, please forgive my brother-in-law."
Feng Yuan shook his head and said with a light smile: "It's okay, but how can my father-in-law be a person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong?" The deep responsibility of love is not for you to become a talent? ”
Seeing that Tong Gu was a little noncommittal, he secretly thought for a moment, and said: "Let me ask you, in this murder case, my father-in-law has beaten you and punished you?" ”
"Why do you beat your brother? This has nothing to do with his brother, if he beats his brother, his brother and brother will run away from home! Tong Gu clenched his fist anxiously and yelled at his neck.
Feng Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Zijian, don't be impatient, if you think about it, for such a big matter as a life lawsuit, your father-in-law only counted a few words against you, why is this?" ”
Seeing that his brother-in-law was thoughtful, he mentioned, "It can be seen that I don't really blame you, he has a scale in his heart." The father-in-law is in a high position, how can he blindly listen to the words of the queen housewoman? ”
Thinking back to the love of his father since he was a child, and his mother-in-law bullied his father's maintenance when he was a child, Tong Gu's eyes turned red and he said regretfully: "What a blind eye!" ”
Honglian filled the wine, he held the wine cup, and said: "Brother-in-law's words made my brother suddenly brightened, and my brother still complained about his father, but he really deserved to die, thanks to my brother-in-law who knocked on my brother's wooden fish brain, my brother respects you." ”
Feng Yuan reminded him of the way to be an official again, and seeing that it was getting late, and the wine and food were almost gone, he said, "Zijian can have fun?" I'm going home. ”
Tong Gu stopped: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, you usually take care of your brother, but this time you have done your brother a great favor, and my brother wants to give you a thank you gift." ”
Seeing that Feng Yuan was a little puzzled, he didn't sell Guan Zi anymore, "Brother-in-law will rest in my brother's courtyard tonight, and my brother will give you a superb stunner." There is no shortage of brothers-in-law, and there is really no good way for my brother to send. This gift must be accepted by the brother-in-law, otherwise the younger brother will have trouble sleeping. ”
Feng Yuan was a little helpless, "Zijian knows me, I am not keen on women." As he spoke, he stood up, stretched out his hand to smooth the folds on his shirt, and said to his brother-in-law, "I'm tired today, so I'll go home." ”
Seeing that his brother-in-law was leaving, Tong Gu hurriedly got up and grabbed him, "Brother-in-law, listen to my brother." ”
After pressing Feng Yuanqiang down, he said: "Brother knows that you are clean and self-conscious, brother-in-law, rest assured, that girl is Bing Qingyu clean." Just look at it, and if you don't look at it, just look at it. Also, it's not like there's no house for you to live in this house, so what do you have to do when you go back? ”
Unexpectedly, Feng Yuan still insisted on going his own way, and had to get up and go home, "Zijian, your house is so far away from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I will go to the government tomorrow." ”
What can he do if he is late, when he talks about women, his brother-in-law is like a stunned young man, pedantic and stereotypical! Tong Gu was sweating profusely, and he couldn't care about his demeanor at this time, so he shouted at the top of his voice: "Jiaohe and Miss Green Ying come in." ”
His ears were buzzing with that loud voice, and Feng Yuan didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Suddenly, there was a "squeak" sound on the door, and Uncle Lang and Uncle Lang looked towards the door together.
I saw two people coming in, wearing a bright vermilion skirt slightly in front, tall and slender, with a face like a full moon, smiling generously and decently, and being blessed, "Slave Jiaohe, please say hello to the two masters." ”
The latter person is rare, charming and plump, wearing a phoenix tail green skirt, skin like condensed fat, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, and the red agate tassel on the top of the head swaying with the steps.
"Slave and maid Green Warbler, please say hello to the two masters." The pear socket at the corner of his mouth loomed, his voice was a little shy, and he lowered his head after speaking.
Tong Gu applauded this green warbler in his heart, what a charming and moving little lady!
He raised his eyebrows, pointed to the two who were tall and short, thin and fat, and looked at Feng Yuan with an inquiring expression, "Brother-in-law, which one is better?" ”
When the words fell, I found that my brother-in-law was staring straight at the green warbler. He scoffed, is this a look? He was overjoyed, and ignored the jealousy of the person who called Jiaohe, and waved her away.
The brother-in-law didn't shout to go home, and Tong Gu's heart fell to the ground. Seeing the green warbler in a daze, he glanced at the red lotus. Red Lotus understood and pushed her towards Feng Yuan's side. The green warbler was unexpected, and suddenly threw herself into Feng Yuan's arms.
Before coming, Master Tong had already informed her of this person's identity, and she raised her head timidly. The person in front of him is Lord Yu Shi Feng, the right man that Ling'er once talked about.
And the age of standing up, the appearance is dignified. The slightly black face, the thick black sword eyebrows fly obliquely into the sideburns, the nose is like a hanging gall, the lips are tightly pursed, and the contour of the whole face is as hard as a knife and an axe.
Green Ying looked at this person carefully, and sure enough, as Ling'er said, he was indeed a handsome man, but unfortunately he was not smiling, and his eyes were still looking at her with ice Ling Ling, and Green Ying suddenly looked at him, and couldn't help but shudder. Only then did he come back to his senses and saw that he was lying in someone's arms, so he quickly got up and knelt down, "The slave has no intention of offending the adult, and begging the adult to spare his life." ”
"Poof", Tong Gu couldn't help it, patted his thighs and stomped his feet, so happy that he almost didn't smack over, and said with a hippie face: "Spare your life, my brother-in-law is not the prince of Yama, such a beauty is a mouse guts, interesting, interesting, hahaha." ”
They are all officials, and they are still so unceasing, Feng Yuan glared at his brother-in-law warningly. Looking at the green warbler at his feet, he personally helped her up and hugged her by his side.
Under the service of the beauties, several people started to drink again.
Tong Gu was young and shallow, and he was already a little drunk, and he was laughing with Honglian, and the two of them fed wine mouth-to-mouth.
Listening to the sound of kissing and smacking lips from time to time on the other side, the green warbler lowered her eyes shyly. Just as when she was sitting on pins and needles, suddenly a full glass of wine was handed to her mouth, and the candle flame set off the sparkling surface of the wine, and she didn't dare to refuse if she was reluctant in her heart.
The green warbler shook her head like a wave drum and begged for mercy: "Master forgive the sin, the slave and maid really can't eat it, and if you eat it again, you will get drunk." ”
"But the master also fed you like that?" Feng Yuan's face sank, and he nodded Tong Gu with his chin.
The green warbler blushed and honestly ate the wine. She burped, leaned on his arms in a bit of confusion, as if he had been fed a few more glasses of wine, and she was so weak that she could only eat with his hand.
It was late at night, and Honglian helped Tong Gu back to the room.
Looking at the drunken green warbler, Feng Yuan picked her up horizontally, and was led to the guest room by his subordinates.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
At this time, in the Feng Mansion, the incense burner was burning in the main hall, the wife of the family, Feng Tong, was slowly sipping hot tea, and Mama Song walked into the house quickly.
Feng Tong glanced at her lazily and asked, "Nurse, is it the maid in Yuan'er's yard who died?" ”
"Exactly, that girl's name is Xiaocui." Mama Song responded. When she lifted it out, she lifted the quilt and looked at it, hey, hey, there was no good skin on her body. It's really pitiful, even if she uses some ruthless methods on weekdays, she can't help but sigh a little at this time.
Feng Tong waved his hand, quite disapproving, "It's her blessing to be able to serve the young master, just a maidservant, just send some silver." Glancing at the sky, "The master went to have a drink with my brother-in-law, why hasn't he returned at this hour?" ”
"The old slave was about to tell his wife that the old man sent De Mao to his house, saying that he was a little drunk, and he was resting in the eldest young master's courtyard today."
Feng Tongshi frowned, and said unhappily: "What a big young master, a cheap embryo." hangs all day long, and can't even mix with a sesame official. What is out of the concubine is that he can't be on the stage, and he has a virtue with his lowly aunt! I don't understand what good he can get when he is always in the same place as this embryo? Can you help him in officialdom, or can you make money for him? ”
Mama Song looked at her eyes and knew that her wife was waiting for her to echo and cater to her, but the matter next to her was just that, it was about the two extremely noble masters, how dare she say more.
was snorting, but heard Feng Tongshi sigh depressedly, "That's it, it's important to do it first." Nurse, you hurry up and let someone go to her house to send a tael of silver, and the master will do it before he comes back, otherwise he will beat my Yuan'er again. ”
Or? That's too little, right? Mama Song wanted to speak and stopped, "Madam, the old slave has seen that little green old man before, and he doesn't seem to be a good person, so I'm afraid of making trouble."
Feng Tong raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "They dare?!" Feng Mansion is something that these pariahs can offend. When he came, he sent the yamen, and when he entered the Shuntian Mansion, he would be honest. ”
"Yes." Mama Song didn't dare to say anything more, and walked out of the hall worriedly.
