Chapter 104: Plum Blossom Wine Chun
After having lunch at Chu Qian's house, he vaguely coped with Pan's side knocks, and under the welcome of the delicate and delicate Chu'er, Chu Zhi carried a gift box, said goodbye to the gentle and graceful Chu'er, and walked lightly in the direction of the Four Holy Temples.
"Young Master Chu." The old housekeeper of He Mansion showed a smile, and hurriedly avoided to make way: "Come in quickly." ”
"Elder, is the teacher at home?" Slightly arching his hand, Chu Zhi stepped up the steps and walked towards the courtyard, casually presenting the gift.
"Young Master Chu came by coincidence, the bachelor is enjoying the plum blossoms in the backyard with a few friends, and the banquet has only been set up for a short time." The old housekeeper didn't shirk it, and after taking the gift, he said with a smile: "Come with me." ”
"Elder, the teacher is toasting with friends, and I rushed to disturb him, is this appropriate?" Chu Zhen stopped, his expression a little hesitant.
"What's wrong, you know the bachelor's friend." The old housekeeper said with a smile: "It's the Duke Wen and Master Zhao who came here last time." ”
"I'm tired of the elders to report to me." Chu Zhen nodded, after apprenticing, he often went in and out of He Mansion, and it was inevitable that he would meet famous people and nobles who came to visit He She.
"Young Master Chu is still so formal, and he will be reprimanded by the bachelor again later." The old housekeeper said with a smile, led Chu Zhen to the front door of the backyard, and went in to report by himself.
Behind the backyard, a few cold plums are blooming in the wind, the faint fragrance of flowers drifts with the wind, a gust of breeze blows, bringing up the petals on a few plum trees, and the pale red petals are flying leisurely for a while, one after another, which looks incomparably beautiful and elegant.
"There is a plum blossom rain, and the wine is more fragrant." The petals of the flowers fell in the wind to the feast near the plum tree, and occasionally a few pieces fell into the wine cup, and a long-bearded scribe raised his hand with a glass, and drank the wine into his stomach along with the petals, and admired it leisurely.
"Minzhi, good Yaxing." Wen Yanbo, who was dressed in a white Confucian costume, chuckled and said, "Master He, there seems to be an injustice in your family's plum tree, you have to take care of it." ”
There was a burst of laughter at the banquet, and He Shi said with a smile: "People are people who love plums, and they naturally get the love of plum trees, and this kind of thing is not enviable." ”
"Master He is reasonable, then I can be regarded as a person who loves Mei." Zhao Yi said with a smile, raising his glass and smelling the aroma of plum blossom wine, as if he was a little proud.
"Although Hanmei is beautiful, it is ...... for the love lotus." Wen Yanbo was about to chant it, when he suddenly noticed a familiar figure outside the courtyard gate, and couldn't help but smile and said: "The person who is crazy about the lotus is here, how dare I be ugly again." ”
"The Lotus Man?" Everyone at the banquet looked over and found Chu Zhi's standing figure, He Shi smiled and shook his head, and said to the old butler who had never been able to find a chance to speak: "Go and let him in." ”
"Teacher." Seeing the old housekeeper's signal, Chu Zhen slowly walked in and saluted in turn: "Xianggong Wen, Bachelor Zhao ......." ”
"Master He, this disciple of yours is not only an infatuated lotus, but also very infatuated." The long-bearded scribe smiled and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked what the world is." ”
"Although there is some talent, it is a pity that it has not yet become a climate, and you still need to mention more." He Shi was happy in his heart, but he was extremely modest on the surface, and Chu Zhen on the side also knew the opportunity to give a gift.
"It's okay to mention it, but I don't know that he is a person who loves Mei." The bearded scribe said with a smile.
"I didn't even give people a glass of wine, even if I loved it in my heart, I couldn't help it." Zhao Ji chuckled and beckoned Chu Zhen to sit beside him.
"Jing Chun, I've come to see Bachelor Gao." He Shi said lightly.
High Bachelor? Could it be the new governor Gao Ruone, Chu Zhen secretly pondered, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Bachelor Gao, the kid is polite." ”
"How about a drink?" Gao Ruone stroked his beard and nodded, smiled and poured a glass of wine, and deliberately added a few pale red, pink and white plum petals.
"Dare to disobey." Chu Zhi expressed his gratitude, calmly took the wine glass, and without the slightest hesitation, the warm plum blossom wine was swallowed into his stomach.
"How does it taste?" Gao Rena asked with a smile.
"It's fragrant and has an endless aftertaste." Junyi's face flushed with a hint of ruddy, and Chu Zhen replied with a smile.
"Jing Chun, sit down." He Shi chuckled, very satisfied with Chu Zhi's performance, Chu Zhen bowed slightly, and came to sit down beside Zhao Zhi.
"After drinking plum blossom wine, can there be plum blossom words?" Zhao Yi smiled heartily and patted Chu Zhen's shoulder: "Just now, the senior bachelor chanted a few songs proudly, and pressed your teacher down, as a disciple, why do you want the bachelor to fight for breath." ”
"Shuping, I'm afraid it's you who is not convinced." He Shi shook his head and smiled.
"But what Shuping said is also reasonable, and you can't let Minzhi be too proud." Wen Yanbo said with a smile, which means that he believes that Chu Zhen's talent will definitely be able to suppress Ruone.
"Master Yan had a saying, a new song and a glass of wine." Gao Ruone was a little unconvinced, raised his glass and smiled: "I want to emulate it, I don't know if the Chu family Xiaolang can do what I want." ”
"The high bachelor is so arrogant." Zhao Yi glanced at it with a smile, turned his head to Chu Zhen and said, "Jing Chun, you don't want to disappoint Master Gao." ”
Chu Zhen looked at He She, and after seeing him nodding with a smile, he also said with a smile: "Only do your best, I hope to make the senior bachelor happy." ”
Several people at the banquet had smiles on their faces, Wen Yanbo personally poured a glass of wine, ordered someone to put it in front of Chu Qian, and said with a smile: "Then I will judge, how about it?" ”
"There is Lao Wengong." Arching his hand, Chu Zhen drank the wine, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes, chuckled and recited: "......, although the plum is three points white, the snow loses the fragrance of the plum." ”
"It's a wonderful poem." Several people high-fived and praised, no one needed to remind him, Gao Ruone drank a glass of wine, and his face showed a little approval.
"......, when the mountains are full of flowers, she laughs in the bushes." Chu Zhen smiled and served a cup, did not stop at all, and continued to chant.
Gao Ruone naturally had nothing to say, and in the laughter and persuasion of everyone, he drank a cup of Chunjiu again with a smile on his face, and a bad feeling suddenly flashed in his heart.
Facts have proved that Gao Ruone's premonition is not wrong, under the gaze of everyone, Chu Zhi does not seem to have to think at all, and in a moment, he has recited several poems related to plum blossoms in a row, and the first one is a good work, which makes people listen to the appreciation and call it wonderful, and the heart is greatly surprised by Chu Qian's extraordinary talent.
"Stop, kid of the Chu family, you can't continue." After seven or eight glasses of wine, Gao Ruone's face turned red, and he slowly spat out a strong smell of wine, and hurriedly waved his hand and shouted.
"Jing Chun, don't listen to him, keep chanting." Zhao Yi laughed and said: "Unless Master Gao personally admits defeat, you must not stop." ”
"I wonder if the high bachelor is having fun?" Chu Zhen asked with a chuckle.
"Master He's wine is fragrant, how dare I not be happy." Gao Ruone said with a bitter face, as if there was a pun, which caused everyone to laugh.
