Chapter 109: The Dinner Party
For dinner, except for the Cui Wanqing sisters, who used it in their own courtyard, and our master Ran Zhi, who hid in his house and secretly nibbled on roast chicken, the rest basically got together in the main hall to eat.
In addition to Qi Xuanhui and Cui Yongzhong, the two people who must be invited, Cao Mu also invited Mr. Han Ning, Meng Zelang, Shen Chao, Huang Chunguo, Gao Dengshan and Yan Shiba, who is alias Li Yan, to accompany him.
Because of the guest Master Dai, the dinner originally prepared was a little more sumptuous, all of which Cao Sheng personally brought back in the afternoon, fresh chickens, ducks, melons, fruits and vegetables.
In addition, it is naturally indispensable, even a few big herring fish just caught in the Yunjiang River, because of the coincidence of going, but also bought a basket of live river shrimp, although it is not valuable, it is better than the word fresh.
These common vegetables were carefully cooked by Qi Xuanhui's imperial kitchen, adding color and fragrance, which made people have a great appetite and call it delicious!
Mr. Dai is the dual identity of the host and the guest, and this meal is extraordinarily enthusiastic, not only to toast you frequently, but also to tell local anecdotes to increase the atmosphere for everyone.
Driven by such a warm person, Qi Xuanhui and Mr. Han Ning, these old and serious people don't care about it, only Shen Chao and Huang Chunguo, the two younger ones, can't help but raise their glasses frequently.
Thanks to Cao Mu's thoughtfulness, I invited these two cheerful boys, otherwise, this atmosphere would not be so hot.
After drinking for thirty years, Master Dai's restraint was also dissipated a lot by the strength of the wine, and he boldly asked: "I don't know all the masters, son, are you going to go there to play this trip?" ”
"It's not a little old man's mouth, it's really our county town. There are no particularly famous landscapes, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are in the middle of nowhere. ”
"Such an inconspicuous place can actually attract you to come, I can't help but be a little curious."
Cao Mu smiled when he heard this, "Hey, we also came here at random with our temperament, and we really don't care much about the famous and unnamed, but then again, there are inevitably many people in famous places." On the contrary, there are few of you here. It's also a little more enjoyable to play. ”
"But I heard that you can enter the Qinyuan Mountains near Jiangyuan County, and if you want to come to the deep mountains and old forests, there are few people. It must not have been damaged too much. The scenery should be interesting. ”
"If you go a little further. There will definitely be no shortage of beasts, so we thought we would go in and have a look, just in time for hunting. Evacuate, evacuate the muscles and bones"
Before Cao Mu's words were finished, they heard a 'clang', and everyone looked at the voice, but when they saw Master Dai, who was already reddish, his eyes were wide open in horror, and the silver cup in his hand had fallen out of the distance, and the wine in it was scattered all over the ground.
"Qin Yuan"
"Mountain" Master Dai worked very hard and wanted to say the name completely, but after struggling for a long time, he still couldn't say it.
He jerked his foot, stood up, and yelled, "Can't go there!" I can't go! There it is"
"It is clearly the gate of the underworld, but anyone who goes there will have no return!"
His behavior is really weird, not a little excited, his eyes are like copper bells, it's really a little scary.
Even Qi Xuanhui, who was not strange, couldn't help but raise his eyes and glanced at Master Dai, who had a sudden seizure, with a puzzled look.
Shen Chao even subconsciously stood up, for fear that this would be unfavorable to the master, so he raised his feet and wanted to walk to Qi Xuanhui's side, but was pulled by Huang Chunguo.
Huang Chunguo glanced at Liang Dong, who was already protecting his master, and shook his head at Shen Chao, that is the loyal of the good prince, and it is not the turn of the two of them to perform for the time being.
A room of people, whether standing, sitting, eating, or drinking, all looked at Master Dai with puzzled eyes, only Yan Shiba's lips showed a strange smile.
Han Ning frowned, glanced at Qi Xuanhui, and nodded invisibly, only then did he break the deadlock in front of him with a kind speech.
Wen Sheng comforted Master Dai and said: "Master Dai, don't worry, our group is just playing at will, and we don't have a fateful goal, so we don't have to go." ”
"If you can explain why you are so frightened when you hear about that realm, and why you say that this is the gate of the underworld, if it is really a dangerous place for nine deaths, then we can change places."
"But if it's just nonsense, if there is no shadow of the rumors, we are really not brave people, and it doesn't hurt to go and see it."
Wang An, who was serving the wine and food of all the masters, was very eye-catching when he heard Mr. Hanning's words, so he hurriedly served a hot tea to the panicked Master Dai.
This thing can not only suppress the shock but also relieve the hangover, but it is more suitable than drinking again, Wang An is so attentive, in order to calm down this person quickly, and to solve his master's doubts.
Master Dai has always been very active just now, and he is also the one who drinks the most with everyone, not to mention that he is only thirty years, but he has also drunk seventy or eighty percent of the wine.
I just drank to that point of excitement, and under the condition of the strength of the wine, I couldn't control my emotions at all, and I suddenly said that I was spitting.
When the hot tea in his hand was down, the beating heart was a little more settled, but once this person calmed down, Master Dai immediately regretted his mouth.
But the words that are spoken, like the water that has been spilled, have already been spoken, and they can no longer take it back as if it had never happened.
You must know that what he is facing at the moment is not the relatives and friends of Jiangyuan County, but the younger brother of the emperor's favorite minister Ming Anhou, Master Cao San.
As long as you have been to the capital, who can not know that Ming Anhou's favorite is not his own children, but this only younger brother?
And according to Master Dai's old and spicy eyes who have been in business for many years and have read countless people, the handsome and handsome young man in ordinary clothes is afraid that his identity is even more noble.
Didn't you see him sitting upright on the main seat, and Master Cao San was sitting with him?
In front of such a group of people, lying openly, it is really unpleasant for himself, who can not hear the truth and falsehood he said?
If you don't have a word of truth in your mouth, who can afford you?
Master Dai took such pains to tie up with Master Cao San, and it was so easy to get close to others, how could he just like this, completely destroying the foreshadowing in front of him?
He couldn't help but secretly decide: "You might as well tell the truth and take the opportunity to warn them, although talking about those obscure things will cause trouble." ”
"But if they can understand their hard work and form a good karma, it will definitely be of great benefit to the future of the younger son" (to be continued......
