Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Guest
Haoyue was very happy when she heard this, and said, "Haoyue came here to lead the way for Miss." ”
Mother Li smiled: "That's very good, let's lead the way." ”
Haoyue smiled and nodded, turned around and walked forward with the lantern, Li Qingzhao stretched out his hand, signaling for his mother to go first.
Mother Li was not polite, so she walked forward, and Li Qingzhao followed behind Mother Li.
After a short time, the three of them came to the door of a large room and listened to the toast being made to each other.
Li Qingzhao could hear the voices of the people in the room, and only heard Zhang Ruzhou saying: "Today, there is a teacher, and no matter how much Ruzhou suffers, there is nothing left." ”
I heard my father sigh again, and said: "The little girl was young and strayed into his arms Zhao Mingcheng, so that she brewed bitter fruit and was boring, which is really sad and unpleasant." ”
Zhang Ruzhou said, "Hey? With a sigh, he said, "Girl's heart, who can guess for sure?" Miss Li admires Zhao Mingcheng, she must have her own ideas, and now that she knows Zhao Mingcheng's character, it can be regarded as a lost figure, and it is not too late. ”
Later, I heard Zhang Ruzhou say: "Brother Lu, you also come, and I will pay tribute to the teacher again, the teacher will hold a banquet to entertain the two of us today, and we should respect the teacher more." ”
Immediately afterwards, I heard Lu Defu say: "Teacher, Dev can't speak, but he should drink this cup full." ”
Immediately afterwards, the sound of Lu Defu swallowing wine was heard.
Li Qingzhao thought to himself in his heart: "He is worthy of being a military general, he wants to defend the country against the enemy, and he is so bold in drinking, Qingzhao has no wrong friends." ”
Mother Li also heard the conversation between the three people in the room, so she smiled slightly, turned back to Li Qingzhao and said, "Qingzhao, let's go in." ”
Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "Now that they are on the rise, let's go in and just add to the fun." ”
Haoyue then approached the door and said softly, "Master, Madame and Miss are here." ”
"Oh?" Li Gefei in the room obviously didn't expect the mother and daughter to come, so he was a little surprised. But then he laughed again, and said, "Invite Miss Madame in." ”
Zhang Ruzhou raised his wine glass again at this time and said to Li Gefei: "Teacher, Mrs. Miss is here, it is a blessing for Brother Lu and me, come, Ruzhou will toast you again." ”
Li Gefei was very happy and said: "Come on, come on." ”
As he spoke, he raised his wine glass again and drank it with Zhang Ruzhou.
At this time, Li's mother was in front and Li Qingzhao was behind, and the two walked in slowly. When Mother Li saw this meeting, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Let's be drunk." ”
Li Gefei looked at Li's mother's happy appearance, and knew that she comforted Li Qingzhao very well, and then looked at Li Qingzhao's appearance, there were no tears, no haggardness. Li Qingzhao must no longer be sad.
Therefore, Li Gefei was even more happy, and hurriedly laughed: "Exactly, come and have a few drinks with us." ”
Zhang Ruzhou saw Mother Li and Li Qingzhao, hurriedly stretched out his hand, made a "please" posture, and said, "Auntie, Miss Li, please come and sit." ”
Mother Li was very happy when she heard Zhang Ruzhou's words, and thought to herself: "Ruzhou, this kid is really good at talking. ”
So Mother Li hurriedly said: "Okay." ”
beckoning Li Qingzhao to sit down with her, Mother Li looked at these people, then went to see Li Gefei again, and said, "Today is an unusual day, and we have two distinguished guests from Li Mansion." ”
Li Gefei nodded and said, "Exactly, I have been talking to the two sons just now." ”
As he was talking, he heard Zhang Ruzhou say again: "Auntie, Miss Li." ”
Mother Li looked back and saw that Zhang Ruzhou had already picked up the wine glass again, and said: "The younger generation has not been in Taixue Mansion for a long time, not like Brother Lu for a long time, so the days with the teacher are also short, and the days when they come to the Li Mansion are even shorter. I haven't had the opportunity to pay more respect, but today I have the opportunity to give my aunt a drink. ”
Li Qingzhao also put all his attention on the banquet, and he didn't think about other things, and there were only a few people in his mind.
Therefore, Li Qing took care of Zhang Ruzhou and listened to him.
"Slow." Li Qingzhao stopped Zhang Ruzhou and said, "Just now, you called my mother and me at the same time, why did you talk about my mother when you spoke, where is Qingzhao?" ”
Zhang Ruzhou was embarrassed when he was told about it, but he pretended to be calm, and thought to himself: "I said too much, and I went on a business trip." ”
Li Gefei listened to Li Qingzhao's words, and hurriedly sank his face and said to Li Qingzhao: "Hey? Be clear and not rude. ”
Zhang Ruzhou's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said to Li Gefei: "The teacher treats Ruzhou well and helps Ruzhou speak." ”
Smiled at Li Gefei, Zhang Ruzhou turned his face to Li Qingzhao again, and said: "Actually, in fact, Miss Li has a little misunderstanding, Ruzhou is a person respected by Ruzhou in front of her, and she should be toasted one by one, aunt and elder, you should first toast your aunt, and when this glass of wine is toasted, Ruzhou will come to salute Miss You." ”
Li Qingzhao listened, pretended to be enlightened, nodded and smiled: "Then after this cup, is Zhang Gongzi willing to drink more than one cup with Qingzhao?" ”
Zhang Ruzhou said: "Why don't you dare? Being able to drink with talented women in the capital is a great blessing for Ruzhou. Brother Lu will also drink with him, right, Brother Lu? :”
Zhang Ruzhou asked, but Lu Defu was silent. Everyone focused their eyes on Lu Defu, but when they saw that he was eating heartily, they were afraid that they didn't hear Zhang Ruzhou's words at all.
Li Qingzhao and Mother Li couldn't help but laugh when they saw it, and Mother Li thought to herself: "It's worthy of being an honest child." ”
Li Qingzhao also said happily in his heart: "Lu Gongzi doesn't talk about the situation, but he is also sincere. ”
Li Gefei hurriedly said: "Lu Defu, this kid is real, don't worry about him too much." ”
Zhang Ruzhou continued to toast to Li's mother, and the two drank the wine in one gulp.
Zhang Ruzhou filled the cup again, and Li Gefei said with concern: "Zhang Gongzi, you have a wound on your face, don't hurt your body by drinking like this." ”
Zhang Ruzhou said: "Thank you for your concern, but it is an honor for Ruzhou to toast with a talented woman like Miss Li, so Ruzhou will not miss such an opportunity." ”
Li Qingzhao also filled the wine, picked up the wine glass, and said to Zhang Ruzhou: "Okay, Zhang Gongzi, you blocked that punch for Qingzhao today, which is a kindness to Qingzhao, and Qingzhao should respect Zhang Gongzi." ”
Without waiting for Zhang Ruzhou to answer, Li Qingzhao had already drunk all the wine, and Zhang Ruzhou had no choice but to drink it.
Zhang Ruzhou had just finished drinking, but saw that Li Qingzhao had filled the wine again, and toasted a glass of wine with Lu Defu. Lu Defu was busy coping, and the two drank it all.
Zhang Ruzhou looked at Li Qingzhao's appearance, and couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart: "This woman looks very delicate on weekdays, how can she drink so boldly, she looks like a man." ”
Li Qingzhao had another drink with Zhang Ruzhou and another drink with Lu Defu.
Toasted each other a few more glasses back and forth, and gradually Zhang Ruzhou was a little confused, and his face was already red, and at this time Li Qingzhao filled another glass.
Lu Defu was also swaying, and his body began to disobey the call.
Li Gefei hurriedly stopped Li Qingzhao and said, "Little girl, you've drunk enough." ”
Zhang Ruzhou was a little drunk, and said: "This is nothing, I can be promoted by a talented woman and toast with salute several times, and I, Zhang Ruzhou, am also very happy." A beautiful woman is better than a glass of wine, how many books? ”
When Li Qingzhao listened, he felt that Zhang Ruzhou was a little drunk, and began to talk nonsense in his mouth, which meant that he was light.
Therefore, Li Qingzhao's face turned red, and he didn't respect Zhang Ruzhou anymore, he drank the wine himself, and said with a smile: "Have fun today, how about Qingzhao come and play a song?" ”
Li Gefei and Li's mother were also a little surprised, why did Zhang Gongzi say such a thing. However, Zhang Gongzi is a distinguished guest, and it was not his intention to talk nonsense when he was drunk, and besides, he said that his little girl was beautiful, so he didn't say anything.
As soon as Zhang Ruzhou's mind cleared up, he knew that he had just said the wrong thing, so he was a little ashamed and said, "Okay, good." ”
Li Qingzhao lowered his head and turned around, and said to the door: "Haoyue, ask someone to bring my piano." ”
Outside the door, Haoyue answered: "Yes." ”
