Chapter 158: There is more than enough to live
The living room was brightly lit, and on the chief of the Big Eight Immortals table, there was a young Wang commissioner, and on the main seat sat the master Chen Qinghua, accompanied by the chief Wang Jiagui and several village elders.
Chen Qinghua and Wang Jiagui diligently distributed dishes and persuaded wine, and the accompanying guests flattered, and the guests and hosts were happy for a while.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors on the dishes, and the atmosphere was strong, the servant Ah Fu came in and whispered in Chen Qinghua's ear. Seeing that Chen Qinghua listened more and more, his brows tightened, and he looked at Wang Cheng opening his mouth, as if he had something to say but it was inconvenient to speak, and he seemed in a dilemma.
At this time, a village elder was toasting Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng signaled to pause when he saw this, then turned to Chen Qinghua, and asked with a smile: "Brother Qinghua, what's wrong?" ”
Chen Qinghua smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, it's my uncle Liu Kejun, he brought Liu Daworm out of the ancestral hall, knowing that everyone was eating here, saying that he asked to see the commissioner's ......, and said that he wanted to toast you with two glasses of water and wine to make amends, what do you say this is called, everyone drinks this wine well...... Chen Qinghua said as he stood up and pulled out his chair, "It's okay, everyone continue to drink, I'll go out for a while, just say that the commissioner doesn't have time at this time, let him go back directly." ”
"Yo, this surnamed Liu, don't you know that you don't want to see him at this table? This cheeky is thick enough. The village elder who toasted Wang Cheng was unhappy and teased.
Wang Jiagui glanced at Wang Cheng, pouted and said, "That's right, let him go back, save everyone's fun." ”
Wang Cheng's mind turned: According to common sense, this money has been spent and the disaster has been eliminated, and the people have been received, shouldn't he go back immediately? Knowing that he was not welcomed, he was cheeky and forced to squeeze in...... What's in the picture? It seems that this Second Master Liu is not ......simple, this embarrassment is embarrassing, if he insists on not seeing it, it will inevitably make everyone at the same table suspicious. Moreover, open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. Wang Cheng firmly believes that it is better to let people set up chariots and horses in front of the gong and drum in front of the gong than to let people play some demon moth in secret...... Thinking of this, he smiled lightly:
"Brother Qinghua, according to our rules, at this time, when you come to the banquet, you are generally ready to pay for the ......, since he insists on coming in, let him come in, it's a relative." When Chen Qinghua went out, he turned to the village elder opposite and picked up the bowl again, "This old man, we haven't drunk the wine just now, come, I respect you." I wish you a long and 100 years old. ”
The old man of the village hurriedly picked up the wine bowl and smiled: "The commissioner is not only honest and honest, but also respects the old and loves the young, which is really a rare good official...... This cup of young man wishes you a prosperous future! Come, drink. ”
Wang Jiagui saw a scene in the attic in front of his eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: The official in front of him may be upright, but he may not be honest...... Thinking like this, at this time, I heard the young man opposite laugh and said, "The old gentleman has won the award." Personally, I think that if you don't become the master of the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes ......", Wang Jiagui sighed in his heart and said secretly: This commissioner only said that he was an official and 'was the master of the people', and did not accept the stubble of the village elder's 'incorruptible', but he was a master who did not speak secret words. Alas, if all the officials in this world can be like this, it would be good.
While speaking, Chen Qinghua led a fat man in a silk shirt in, and as soon as the fat man entered the door, he took off his top hat, nodded to everyone, and said hello again and again, and even Ah Fu, who took the top hat for him, also bowed to him.
Wang Cheng felt that Liu Daworm and his father Liu Kejun were like being printed in the same mold, but his father Liu Kejun was more happy, only to see that he kept arching under the light with a fat body, like a bear with clumsy and pleasing movements.
Although the village elders also played haha with this bear, no one left the table to greet him, only Wang Jiagui stood up with a smile, and led him to the table with Chen Qinghua, just about to introduce, I don't want this bear to be big but a self-cooked, first shortened himself, his face was squeezed into several mountain beams, and a pair of bear eyes laughed into two crescents:
"This ...... Presumably it was Mr. Commissioner from Nanjing. Oh, it's really young and promising, young and promising. ”
"Oh, Second Master Liu, right? Second Master Liu has won the award, but the official actually has no ability, and he just relies on a little ancestral shade and is stained with the light of the family...... Hehe, this is early, it's better to come by coincidence, here at the young master of Tsinghua University, Second Master Liu is a distinguished guest, let's take a seat, we have just sat down not long ago. Wang Cheng smiled and stretched out his hand to invite.
"Oh please, please, thank you, thank you. The commissioner is so young and has become so old and skilled, it's really embarrassing......" Liu Kejun complimented again, and Wang Cheng hummed and was polite. Chen Qinghua asked Ah Fu to add a few more dishes to the kitchen, re-lifted the wine jug, and added wine to everyone one by one.
Pouring the wine in front of Liu Kejun, Liu Kejun gently stretched out his hand and held down the wine jug, looked up at Chen Qinghua, and said sincerely: "Qinghua...... Today, the big worm can be regarded as losing my old face, you sit down and rest first, I will sift the wine, and I will make amends to my relatives and friends here. With that, he stood up, patted Chen Qinghua on the shoulder, and then said to everyone: "Mr. Commissioner, all the relatives and friends here, the dog and the big insect are so offended today, I, Liu Kejun, have no way to teach my son, I will punish myself for three cups first, I dare not ask for forgiveness, I just hope that everyone can dissipate their anger!" ”
As he spoke, he poured himself a wine, filled a bowl, and held it to Wang Cheng, "This first cup, thank the commissioner for raising his noble hand." As soon as his neck was dry, he took the bowl and showed it to everyone, and when he carried the pot and poured it, the jade-colored wine flowed out of the mouth of the clay pot and fell into the bowl in a thin line...... A few village elders with white beards muttered to themselves, did the sun come out in the west today? When did the people of the Liu family in Xikou also apologize? It's weird.
Wang Jiagui was confused by Liu Kejun's actions, this Liu Erye is not stupid, he said that he was punished with three cups, but everyone used a rice bowl, this bowl of wine is half a catty, this daughter red is Wang Jiagui's home brew, his own wine is known to his family, the entrance is supple, but the stamina is long, and it is easy for people to drink too much inadvertently. Before... I haven't heard of how good this Second Master Liu is at drinking...... Now that his baby son Liu Daworm has been rescued, the night is not early, the father and son are not in a hurry to go home, he is a father and comes here to make a fool of himself, which is really unpredictable.
The people at the table were silent, as if they acquiesced to Liu Kejun's words, and everyone stared at him and poured himself a drink...... The scene was very awkward for a while.
Chen Qinghua has never had a good impression of this uncle, but now that he sees it, he can't bear it, and wants to say a few words to dissolve the atmosphere, but when he opens his mouth, he finds that he doesn't know what to say?
Wang Cheng was surprised, but he admired Liu Kejun's bachelor's style, and felt that for the sake of two small yellow croakers and a few bundles of silver dollars, it might not be intolerable, and when he poured himself three bowls of dry, he clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Okay, Second Master Liu is a heart-...... No wonder it can support such a big family business...... The official still has a few words of advice, and I hope that Second Master Liu will hear it. ”
His words were hurtful, making people laugh and cry.
After all, he is a fledgling, Liu Kejun feels that he is the chief
