Qing Xuanzi said: "Don't leave at noon, drink with your brothers, after drinking, see if you are still calm or not, the fox's tail is about to be exposed, right?" ”

"I'm afraid you won't make it!" Chen Chong said.

Qu Ping saw that everyone was happy, so he said goodbye first, because he still had a lot of doors to run. Originally, officials did not advocate greeting each other, so as not to form a party for personal gain. Qu Ping took this into consideration, so Li Gang didn't go to pay a special visit, and only invited Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, Wu Jue, Wu Lu brothers, Zhao Li, Zhang Jun, these good brothers and comrades-in-arms who had fought side by side on the battlefield, and originally invited General Zong Ze, but his old man set off for Kaifeng as soon as possible.

Everyone did not hesitate to Qu Ping's invitation, and they all came to Qu Ping's house with gifts with their families and children.

Qu Ping greeted the guests at the door and said: "Everyone gathers together, and it also saves everyone from visiting the New Year, saving time and effort!" ”

The women went to the side to chat, and the men sat together, of course, they couldn't just drink tea and eat melon seeds so boring, and the awkward conversation seemed too formal, and the eight big men sat together, as if they were in a meeting.

"Why don't I teach everyone to play mahjong!" Qu Ping said.

Everyone had never heard of mahjong and was curious.

Qu Ping asked everyone to sit together, called Huang Butler to bring up a pair of mahjong carved from sandalwood, and poured it on the table, Qu Ping said: "This is what I spent two days with everyone in the house, painstakingly carved, let me introduce it to you......"

Qu Ping introduced the understanding of mahjong to you in detail with a three-inch tongue, as well as the way to play, what a dragon, all colors, thirteen, too mysterious.

Qu Ping said: "Let's learn while playing, starting from simple play, first learn to eat, touch, and hu." ”

Qu Ping took Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, and Wu Jue to play around, and Yue Fei, Wu Lan, Zhao Li, and Zhang Jun concentrated on watching and learning behind Qu Ping, and in the end, of course, Qu Ping won the card.

The women heard the happy noise from afar, and they also came around, and it was quite interesting to see.

Liang Hongyu asked Xiao Lu: "Madam, is there this pair of mahjong in your house?" ”

"There's also a deck that's not good-looking, but it's neatly numbered. But I can't fight, I can't teach everyone. Xiao Lu said.

"It's okay, let's fight it too, learn from the adults first!"

A bunch of people were gossiping around, so lively.

Liu Guangshi said: "What you watch is more exciting than what you fight. Watching chess without saying anything, do you understand? ”

Liang Hongyu said: "Your mahjong is like this, we don't want to see you, we are looking at General Qu's." ”

"I'm playing this mahjong badly, it's not thanks to you."

"We've learned to fight on our own, so we don't want to see you!"

The women learned, and sure enough, they went to open up a new table and played in a daze, and when they couldn't hit the place, they ran over to ask Qu Ping for advice. Qu Ping's table everyone also learned roughly, so they took turns to play, and Qu Ping went around to guide card skills.

It's still early for dinner, and everyone is not stupid, they have already entered the door, and Yue Fei has made a clean face under Qu Ping's guidance, but he is too happy.

Qu Ping said: "If you lose, drink an extra glass of wine, I can remember it." ”

Han Shizhong said: "If you don't say it earlier, if you say it earlier, I won't let off the gun!" ”

Wu Jue said: "You have no way out and throw yourself into the net." ”

Qu Ping was happy to see that everyone was happy, like brothers, and he was happy, this was the effect he wanted. Qu Ping observed these generals: Wu Jue was upright but proud of his merits; Wu Lan is resourceful but easy to believe in his words; Liu Guangshi is rude and rational; Han Shizhong is a little modest, but he must look forward to things first; Yue Fei is loyal and brave, upright; Zhang Jun is competitive, strong, and decisive; Zhao Ligang was upright and ashamed of himself.

Han Shizhong said: "General Yue, there is something related to you in my military camp, and I am about to ask you for advice. ”

"Oh? Something to do with me? But it doesn't hurt to say that. Yue Fei said.

"General Yue has been in the limelight recently, the wife of a capital head in our army, I don't know what crazy she is, she cried, made trouble and hanged herself to leave the capital to find General Yue, she said that she was your wife! My beloved wife was so anxious that I told the general about it. The general was worried about this matter, and he didn't know whether to tell General Yue or not. ”

Yue Fei said: "Her surname is Liu?" ”

"Seems to be."

Yue Fei thought for a while and said, "Yue once had a wife who was indeed surnamed Liu. If it was really her, the Liu family abandoned the old mother and the two young sons, and now he is married, if the Liu family returns to Yue repeatedly, it will be against the common morality of women. Although Yue Mou once had no news, he is now willing to pay her 500 yuan, and since then he has broken off the kindness of the former husband and wife. General Han handed it over to her for me, so that she could be as she is now! ”

Wu Jue said: "General Yue's move Wu is very much in favor of this, since the Liu family abandoned the old and young first, and then remarried others, what face do you have to return to General Yue's side now, it's just to see that you are in a high position!" ”

Qu Ping also said: "I also think this is the truth. ”

Seeing that everyone was unanimously in favor, Yue Fei immediately took out five hundred pieces and handed them to Han Shizhong. Han Shizhong shook his head and accepted the money, and he didn't know who he was shaking his head for.

"Haha, are you going to gamble again?" Everyone heard a familiar voice at the door, and when they saw that it was Li Gang, he said, "Li is uninvited, I hope you will forgive me!" ”

Qu Ping and Xiao Lu hurriedly went to greet Li Gang and asked someone to move the stool to serve tea, Qu Ping said, "How can the Prime Minister have time to visit the Humble House?" Qu originally planned to visit your mansion today, but he was afraid that people would gossip about us forming a party for personal gain. ”

"Aren't you just forming a party, and you're not missing me." Li Gang laughed and said, "It's all for the emperor to serve the Great Song Dynasty, isn't it more powerful for everyone to twist into a rope?" ”

"Then it should be Qu Mou's visit to Master Li." Qu Ping said.

"It doesn't matter, haha. The prime minister is just to take a turn, and those officials such as the Sixth Ministry will come to me to nag at night. Li Gang said, "What were you talking about just now, all of you are full of righteous indignation? ”

Qu Ping said: "It doesn't hurt to say that the adults know, but General Yue knew that his original wife abandoned her husband and son and remarried a small capital head under General Han, and General Yue gave 500 yuan to break off this marriage." ”

"That's it, haha, why does the eldest husband have no wife, let alone the dignified general!" Li Gang glanced around at everyone and said, "You all have wives, is General Yue still single?" ”

Yue Fei said curtly: "Yue is still young, not in a hurry, not in a hurry. ”

Li Gang looked at Yue Fei carefully and said, "Well, General Yue is a talent, Kong Wu is powerful, and he is a general, very good!" ”

Qu Ping said: "Do you want to be a matchmaker for Brother Yue?" ”

"Why not?" Li Gang said, "Benxiang has a little niece, who is just eighteen years old after the New Year, exquisite and filial, and her appearance is not bad, I wonder if General Yue has any intentions?" ”

Yue Fei said: "As long as she is willing to follow Yue to endure hardships." ”

Qu Ping said: "The relatives of the prime minister must also be virtuous and virtuous, and I am optimistic on behalf of the people who eat melons!" ”

"But I don't know if she wants to, and if she minds if Yue Mou has a wife and children." Yue Fei said.

Li Gang said: "It is normal for a husband to have three wives and four concubines, and not to mention the words of the parents' order matchmaker, this matter can be decided by the prime minister!" ”

Yue Fei said: "Yue has always advocated monogamy and the equality of men and women. It's better for the adults to ask the young lady before deciding before it's too late. ”

"It's up to you." Li Gang said, "If you are free tomorrow, come to pay New Year's greetings to me, and I will call my niece Li Wa and let you know each other." ”

Yue Fei was a little embarrassed, and Qu Ping said on his behalf: "Cheng, tomorrow I will accompany General Yue to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings." ”

Li Gang said: "Okay, the old man won't bother the generals Yaxing, I still have to go back to greet those guests." Qu Ping and his wife repeatedly left him for dinner before leaving, and Li Gang left politely.

Qu Ping said: "It's a coincidence that Master Li came, and this time he worked hard to tell General Yue about a family affair, which is really gratifying!" ”

Liu Guangshi said: "General Yue has to drink more today!" ”

Zhang Jun said: "General Yue will have major life events tomorrow." ”

"Then do you do it for you?"

“……”

Everyone finished the first day of the new year, and the next day Qu Ping and Xiao Lu took gifts and accompanied Yue Fei to Li Gang's mansion. Li Gang drank too much yesterday, and he was about to get up after three strokes in the day, and when the three of them arrived, Li Gang finished washing.

"General Yue is in such a hurry, he came to the door early in the morning, and the mansion didn't have time to buy vegetables to receive you. Haha, just kidding. "It seems that Li Gang is in a good mood today.

The three of them accompanied Li Gang to have breakfast snacks, and Li Gang asked Li Wa to come out to meet everyone by the way.

Li Wa was really handsome, knowledgeable, and behaved generously and decently, and everyone was very satisfied. Li Wa had long heard her uncle tell Yue Fei's heroic deeds, and seeing that Yue Fei was young and strong, she was willing in every possible way.

So the marriage was quickly decided. Lord Li Gang acted vigorously and resolutely, calculated the yellow calendar, and it happened that the sixth day of the first month was suitable for marriage, and it was agreed that the two newcomers would marry on the sixth day of the first month.

The days are so fast, Li Gang has everything here, there is no need to prepare anything special, anyway, the food is available, and there is no need to buy more. On Yue Fei's side, he had to send someone back to Tangyin to invite his mother and two sons over. I have to decorate the house in the capital again, the niece of the prime minister, that is also a real daughter, although people say that they are not afraid of hardship, in order not to be wronged, she can't look shabby.

When getting married, the newlyweds are not busy, but they are all relatives and friends of the newlyweds. Therefore, in the past few days, Qu Ping and his wife are the busiest, plus they have just gotten married, they have experience, Qu Ping is Yue Fei's sworn brother, and it is their duty.
