Volume 1: Who Have Seen Again, Chapter 260: The Gathering of Storms (2)

Brother Shou casually beat Shen Rui, his heart was depressed a lot, seeing that the garden was imminent, thinking of the mercy of the Xu family, he then threw away the half of the bamboo pole in his hand.

Today is a door-to-door guest, not a door-to-door begging, so throw away this eye-catching thing.

Then he held his head high, his chin raised, and he immediately looked like a little rooster.

Even if Brother Shou is the smallest of the three, this patch-on-patch outfit, with this proud demeanor, is more eye-catching than the tall and burly Gao Wenhu.

Shen Quan, Mao Chi and He Taizhi were sitting in the garden pavilion talking, and when they saw Shen Rui bringing the host and guest, the three of them all got up politely.

Seeing Brother Shou's strange pretend, Shen Quan and Mao Chi were still there, the two were older and had their own city, but He Taizhi's eyes lit up.

Shen Rui had already introduced everyone, everyone had seen each other, and the guests and hosts were seated.

Because Gao Wenhu was older, Shen Rui was mainly Gao Wenhu when he entertained people, and Shen Quan and Mao Chi also greeted Gao Wenhu.

When they knew that he was only thirteen years old this year, Shen Quan and Mao Chi were amazed.

Shen Rui is already taller than a teenager of the same age, and this Gao Wenhu is half a head taller than Shen Rui. Even if you are immature, if you don't know the way, some people believe that you are sixteen or seventeen years old.

One of these two people is mellow, the other is from a slightly humble background, even if they know that Gao Wenhu is just a civilian boy, they don't have contempt. On the contrary, because they are Shen Rui's new friends, the two love the house and Wu, and they are also a little closer to Gao Wenhu.

Although Gao Wenhu has a simple temperament, he knows how to do it, and when he feels the kindness of the two, he dissipates the restraint on his body, revealing his innocent and simple temperament.

In contrast, Brother Shou, who is dressed in strange clothes and has an arrogant look, is extremely unpleasant.

Seeing that Shen Rui looked polite and detached, looking unfamiliar with each other, after Shen Quan and Mao Chi greeted each other, they didn't pay attention to Brother Shou anymore.

Seeing this, Brother Shou secretly glared at Shen Rui, feeling that he was really stingy, and he just said a few words to him casually, as if he had a grudge.

Brother Shou is only in his teens, where can he really see Shen Rui through at a glance and make a sharp comment?

It's just that he treats others like two things, and when he is in a good mood, he is so well-behaved; When you're in a bad mood, no one can be seen.

Unexpectedly, he was talking nonsense, but he told Shen Rui about his hidden temperament.

Although Shen Rui was touched for a while, he didn't hold a grudge, but he felt that Brother Shou, a bear child, kicked his nose in the face, and it was not inferior to him when he was close, so he was still cold, but he could pretend to be a good child.

Even if it is the future son of heaven, he should be trained when he can be trained.

Seeing that everyone was talking around Gao Wenhu and didn't care about himself, Brother Shou felt bored.

He had already noticed that He Taizhi was staring at him fiercely, but because He Taizhi did not show a look of contempt, he ignored it, but now he was full of dissatisfaction, so he asked angrily: "Why are you staring at me all the time?" ”

He Taizhi saw Brother Shou speak, his eyes brightened, he came to him, his eyes were glued to him, and said: "Where did this come from, and now it is popular in the capital to wear this style of clothes?" Speaking of this, he looked down at his feet again: "Oh, there are matching shoes"

As soon as the two spoke, everyone looked at Erxiao.

Brother Shou felt that he had been skinned, his face was hot, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, looking at the banter that flashed in He Taizhi's eyes, he couldn't wait to kick He Taizhi away.

He Taizhi had already turned his head and complained to Shen Rui and the others: "Call me to say, the rules of the academy are too rigid, and there are even requirements on how to dress, so that we can't keep up with the fashion in Beijing......"

Although I don't know why Brother Shou went out to dress like this, looking at his embarrassed appearance, Shen Quan and Mao Chi knew that this dress was by no means popular.

Shen Quan said to He Taizhi angrily: "There is still more than a month to go, and now you don't want to think about how to sharpen your guns in a row, and you still have the heart to think about what clothes are fashionable in Beijing?" Du Yun is close to Zhu Zhechi, and Cousin He can also learn some of Brother Rui's concentration......"

Hearing the mention of studying, He Taizhi hurriedly made a gesture of forgiveness, and said with a bitter face: "Please don't mention reading, I want to vomit when I read, and now my head hurts when I hear it...... Didn't you say that there are new friends from Cousin Rui coming over today, and everyone will follow the light for a day? ”

Gao Wenhu realized it later, and reacted slowly, only when He Taizhi, Shen Quan and others had never seen such a dress, for fear of hurting Brother Shou's heart, he said quietly: "This is a common dress for ordinary people, clothes are easy to break if they are washed too much, and they can be worn for another year if they are sewn patches." It's what I wear at home, and I don't change into patches when I go out......"

He explained it seriously, neither humble nor arrogant, Shen Quan was still there, He Taizhi, the initiator, was inevitably weak-hearted, and said with a smile: "I see, it's because I have seen a short ......."

Shen Rui hadn't seen He Taizhi's expression before, and when he listened to his questioning, he really hadn't seen such clothes.

Only now do I realize that He Taizhi's hometown is the countryside on the outskirts of Beijing, and he has to return to his hometown every year to worship his ancestors.

This kid has itchy skin and deliberately teases Brother Shou.

Shen Rui couldn't help but be secretly worried, so he looked at Brother Shou.

Brother Shou thought He Taizhi was unpleasant, so he pretended to vomit himself, but looking at his headache when he mentioned reading, he felt a little sympathy.

Children love to play with older children, Brother Shou's parents are the elders, and he ranks first among his cousins. Cousins are far away and are easily invisible; Even if there are a few cousins and cousins in the Zhang family, they are all snot babies in his eyes, so he doesn't bother to pay attention to them.

The few people in front of him, except for He Taizhi and his fellow Geng, everyone else is older than him. He didn't feel any estrangement, but paid attention to a few people with great interest.

Shen Rui, the clan brother, is a good-tempered person, a little older than everyone, and he doesn't take care of everyone because he is old, and he takes care of people when he acts and talks.

Mao Chi, this guy, really doesn't look like he is sixteen years old, he is not tall, and he speaks slowly, but he looks like a soft man from the south.

This He Taizhi is "relying on small and selling small", a "third brother" and "cousin", but he is a guy who owes clean up.

When Shen Rui saw Brother Shou, Brother Shou was glaring at He Taizhi's grinding teeth.

Shen Rui saw that although he was annoyed, he had no resentment, so he put down his heart again.

He Taizhi is a daring character, seeing that Shen Rui, Shen Quan and others are implicitly blaming, Brother Shou's little eyes are not good, knowing that he is just presumptuous, he has the heart to resolve it, sitting next to Brother Shou, and whispering: "Fang is my rudeness, I can't help it...... It's just that why are you dressed up like this? ”

Brother Shou couldn't help but be stunned, lowered his head and looked at himself, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?" Where are the horse's feet exposed? ”

He Taizhi glanced at Brother Shou and said with a little smugness: "The whole horse is exposed, and you still need to find the horse's feet?" Although the stitches on this patch are thick, the ones that can be used are Matsue muslin. Such cloth, looking ordinary, is not cheaper than silk. Otherwise, it would not have been a tribute. Although it is said that he is benevolent and cherishes the people's livelihood, and has stopped Songjiang Gongpo, there are many people who use this cloth in the capital and nobles......"

The one who sold this cloth to the capital was the third room of the Shen family.

The three-room is a gift, and the second room is here.

Xu saw that this cloth was used well, so he often sent it to He's house.

Brother Shou was unconvinced: "Isn't it all cloth?" Can you really see the difference at a glance? You are a little boy, and you are not a little lady, why do you still pay attention to the material of your clothes? I can't complain that the third brother said that you are not attentive to study, and this heart is too scattered."

Shen Rui was a few older, and he was originally worried that these two little ones would not get along well, so even if he was talking, he would pay more attention to this end, for fear that these two would quarrel.

I didn't expect these two little heads to get together and mumble, but they looked hot.

In fact, He Taizhi is already annoyed here.

Hitting people does not slap people in the face, and exposing people does not expose shortcomings.

Shen was a long year, and he swept the tail for him again, and he listened to his two sentences; The stinky boy in front of him is yin and yang, and his mouth is really stinky.

It's just that because he is Shen Rui's guest, He Taizhi didn't want to quarrel with him, so he suppressed his unhappiness, and pointed at Shen Rui: "Who pays attention to the material of clothes?" I didn't recognize it earlier, but my cousin didn't like to wear silk clothes, but loved this kind of muslin clothes, and even my mother said that the material was good, and made a few sets for my brother and me...... It's just that I'm not used to wearing it, and I think it's not as cool as silk clothes......"

Brother Shou went to see Shen Rui's clothes, they were indeed cloth clothes, they didn't look ordinary, and they were no different from the clothes of the scholars outside.

He was no longer entangled, but remembered the Xu family's loving and slightly pitiful eyes.

If you don't treat him as a real beggar, then why do you have mercy?

He still didn't know what to do, although the Xu family didn't inquire about Brother Shou's details, but he also had a guess about his origin.

It's just that he is a young son who is unwilling in the noble mansion, at a young age, there is depression between his eyebrows and eyes, and he does not respect his elders when he is in the market.

If there is a child who is loved by his mother, where will this be? Most of them are without their mothers, and they marry after their fathers, so that the little son of Guijie will live so absurdly.

Because of such speculation, the Xu family was pitiful, even if he saw that Brother Shou was not lenient, he had no intention of preventing Shen Rui from making friends.

Brother Shou couldn't think of this, but he didn't think that Xu was cheating, he just wondered.

Before the meal arrived, everyone couldn't sit still, Shen Rui had already prepared the game sign, and said: "There is still some work before eating, let's stubbornly catch Cao Cao, right?" ”

Shen Quan and Mao Chi nodded and said yes, but the rest of the people looked at each other.

"What is the capture of Cao Cao,? How stubborn? Brother Shou asked.

Shen Rui said: "It was originally a popular game in the south, which was fun on the wine table, simple and easy to understand...... I'm not stubborn, but I've heard people mention it, and I think I can be stubborn now......"

The so-called "arresting Cao Cao" has similarities with the "killing game" that was all the rage in later generations, and it is worthy of being the ancestor of the "killing game".

Write the names of "Zhuge Liang", "Cao Cao", "Liu Bei", "Guan Yu", "Zhang Fei", "Zhao Yun", "Ma Chao", "Huang Zhong" and other people written in advance into a brand, put them in a cloth bag or jar, and then everyone grabs one by one.

"Zhuge Liang" issued an order to point a certain general to arrest "Cao Cao".

The named general reported to the table and guessed at the others. If you catch the wrong one, you will be fined a glass of wine; If "Liu Bei" is caught, the punishment will be doubled, and "Liu Bei" will drink a cup with him; Until "Cao Cao" was caught, a game ended.

This is carefully selected by Shen Rui in various common games in the world now.

If it is a smart or board game, Gao Wenhu's brain is not enough; If it is a competitive game, Shen Quan and Mao Chi can't keep up.

This "catching Cao Cao" is simple and easy to understand, and it is easy to use, but it is just right......
