Chapter 200: What is Fame?

"Did you hear that? Today, the nephew of Zhang Yuanwai's family in the city has a concubine. "In the city of Yangzhou. A few beggars get together. Extremely bored to talk about the subject.

"Just take a concubine. What's all the fuss. The son of the old man Wang in Shanghui City got married. That's what makes it spectacular. A beggar next to him said disdainfully.

"Go aside. You know what. The man who spoke replied to him with great dissatisfaction. Then he said with a look of yearning. "I went to see it myself early this morning. That scene. I've never seen it that big since I was a child. Then what is the son of the old man Wang's marriage. There was no better way to compare that scene. ”

"I haven't seen the world. You're not like me yet. It's a flower child. Anyway, I had some money back then. But even then. I had never heard that the concubine would make it bigger than the scene when the son of the old man Wang got married. "This beggar looks like he was in the past.

"If you don't believe it, forget it." The man before saw that there were many more people waiting for him to recount the scene. Where is there time to talk to him. "I've been a flower since I was a child. But in this world, it is really people like me who are the most knowledgeable. If it is a family that is married. I can't get into this compound. At most, see if you can see a few pennies in front of the door. Either that, or just wait for the leftovers at the back door. But this team of relatives can't deceive people. It depends on this to know how the marriage of this family is doing. ”

"Hey. I said Little Five. Don't be verbose. Hurry up and talk about it. What the hell is going on. "Someone on the side couldn't wait. Hurriedly urged.

"Then I'll start talking." This little fifth son probably listens to too many storytellers. It also whetted the appetite of other people. Especially the one who raised the bar with Zhang Datou before, and he seemed to know. As a result, he found out and quickly turned his head away. He was satisfied. "If you want to talk about this nephew. That's incredible. He is the new emperor of the court, and he has the title of prince and concubine. ”

"What is the title of the crown prince and the prince." Someone on the side who didn't understand asked.

"I've heard of that." Someone hurriedly offered a treasure next to him. "I heard that this Taifu is Mr. Teaching. Isn't the prince the prince the gentleman who teaches the prince? ”

"No, it won't."

"Impossible."

"How old is this guy. His nephew became a teacher for the prince. ”

"That's it. I heard what the people who taught the prince were all ...... What a bachelor's degree. It's all a gray-haired old guy. ”

"Don't believe you yet. I heard from a bad uncle. This nephew is called Zhang Fan. I heard that it was the first place in last year's imperial examination. It's a champion. Naturally, there is no problem with this knowledge. And I've also heard that he's a three-dollar company. "Mr. in the private school of the little five scholars. Shaking his head, he said. Although he didn't know what this "Lianzhong Sanyuan" meant. But what does the champion represent. He knows.

"Really." Someone next to him immediately asked. After all, they had only heard the word champion in the past. Although I also listen to others now. But it's much more real and exciting.

"Of course. My little five sons never tell lies. Unless the bad man lied to me. But I think what he said was true. Who dares to joke about the champion in this world. Xiao Wuzi said as a matter of course. There was a very complacent look on his face.

"Then which little lady does this champion marry? How about long. Someone else hurriedly asked. Sure enough, this was the topic they were most interested in.

"I heard that it is the sister-in-law of Liu Shan, the eunuch guarding the town in the city." Xiao Wuzi said.

"This eunuch still has a sister." Someone on the side immediately asked.

"Fart." Xiao Wuzi knocked him on the head. Look at him with a look of a fool. "The eunuch has no son. Who stipulates that eunuchs cannot have sisters? ”

I saw everyone's expressions of sudden realization. Xiao Gozi's self-confidence swelled again. Go on. "Today I am waiting in front of Zhang Yuanwai's house. Although I know that this concubine will not sprinkle happy money. But I heard that this Liu Gonggong's sister is called a water spirit. I went to see it. ”

"Did you see that?"

"See. That look, that face. It's even more beautiful than the top brand of the spring moon girl in Nali Spring Temple. Xiao Wuzi said. His eyes were a little out of focus. The brain doesn't know where to go.

"That Chunyue girl, my brother has seen it all. There really are people who are more beautiful than her. Immediately, there were people below who didn't believe it.

"That's nature. In those words. It is...... It's what kind of fish and geese. What a moon shy flower. Xiao Wuzi said proudly.

"Seriously." Someone immediately asked again.

Xiao Wuzi didn't speak. He just nodded his head in affirmation.

"Fart. The women who were married were all covered with red hijabs. Where did you see it? "The big head hears this. It seems that he is a little unconvinced. Immediately fought back.

"yes. Little Five Sons. You're not lying to us. Someone below immediately chimed in.

"You're just farting." Xiao Wuzi seems to have been insulted. Pointing at Zhang Datou. said with an angry face. "It was said that Zhang Yuanwai's nephew married a concubine. Where is the entrance of this concubine who should have a red hijab. ”

Hear him say that. The big head stopped talking. And the person next to him also showed the same expression.

See the expressions of the crowd. Xiao Wuzi's heart is full of joy. It seems to be celebrating another big show of his own. But when he had to say something more. A little Hanako came running up to interrupt him.

"Puppy. I didn't see me telling these people about the marriage of the Zhang family. You little bunny is running around and making trouble. The interrupted little five seemed to be very angry.

"Not really. Little Fifth Brother. "Hanako, who is called a puppy, is running a little out of breath. I can't take a good breath. He hurriedly said. "That Zhang is eating at the outsider's house. I heard that there is meat as well. It seems that there will be money to take later. ”

"Really."

"Puppy. If you dare to lie to me. I'll beat you up later. A man said to the puppy while running. Where do other people still have the kung fu to speak. They all ran in the direction of Zhang's house.

Seeing that the people who were originally for themselves are now gone. Xiao Wuzi has a feeling of abandonment. Even Zhang Datou, who was extremely disdainful of himself before, heard that there was food, meat and money. also ran to Zhang's house immediately. Not even to find someone to laugh at him. But the next moment. Xiao Wuzi reacted. After all, your own face is not important. The important thing is to fill your stomach.

This is what is happening in various places in Yangzhou today. The situation is mostly similar. But they all have a common purpose. That is the gate of the Zhang family.

This matter was also asked by Zhang Fan to do it at the beginning. It is said that even the money was paid by Zhang Fan. Of course. Naturally, the money came from Liu Shan and those other officials. Zhang Yufang didn't quite understand the reason why Zhang Fan did this. If you just want to give. When not. We'll have to wait until this time. He also asked Zhang Fan why. But Zhang Fan didn't tell him. That's why he did it. In fact, I also want to act in a play for Liu Shan.

Now. The banquet in the courtyard of the Zhang family continued. In other words, it is now more than half of the Shen time. And these people are still very good. This dish is really meticulously cooked. It was specially prepared by Zhang Yufang for the first-class chef in Yangzhou City. It cost a lot of silver. But no one ate much. Most of them are caught and poured into their stomachs. This wine Zhang Yufang prepared is also a good product. He just knew it was going to happen. The wine bought is relatively light. If it weren't for the fact that this wine would be really good. There are people below who have long been unwilling. But that's it. There were still people who were drunk and helped to the guest room to rest. And the two big cars of wine prepared by Zhang Yufang are almost bottoming out. But you still have to think about the night. It's not. He also told his son Zhang Yan to buy more.

Zhang's house is very lively inside and outside. But the so-called complementarity is mutually reinforcing. Naturally there are quiet places here. In a relatively remote wing room in the Zhang family's compound. You can still hear some of the bustle outside. But it's already relatively quiet.

In the room. Zhang Fan and Liu Shan sat opposite each other. All there drinking tea. Right. It's not a product. It's just drinking. Although the two of them knew the control just now. Don't drink too much alcohol. But many people still came up to toast. Although some people don't really want to respond. But because of today's special circumstances. Had to laugh and raise a glass to drink. It's not. Now the two of them came here to hide. Sipping on strong tea to dispel the alcohol. Of course. The two of them don't just sit here for tea. Rather, there are many things to talk about.

"Lord Zhang. Wrong. Now I have to call it brother-in-law instead. But somehow. That's really wrong with our family. Let's call it an adult. Liu Shan said this, obviously putting a low posture. Tell Zhang Fan that he can be regarded as his subordinate now. wants to get Zhang Fan's approval.

"What Father-in-law Liu said is. It's not Zhang Fan's hypocrisy. It's not that this brother-in-law can't shout. It's awkward. Zhang Fan also said this with him. In the future, we will call it that in private. ”

"Okay." Liu Shan didn't have anything to worry about. I agreed directly. And then he said. "Lord Zhang is the groom's official today. How not to accompany the guests. Bring our family here. ”

"Father-in-law Liu. We are celebrities and don't talk in secret. Zhang Fan, please come over. What do you want to say. Compared to my father-in-law, I know it very well. Zhang Fan took another sip of tea. The tone is somewhat reasonable. And his eyes were just staring at the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl.

"It's hypocritical for our family." Liu Gong announced the crime. "I heard today. Zhang Yuan externally called Hanako to the city. Presumably this is also what Master Zhang meant. ”

"Not bad." Zhang Fan said indifferently. "I, Zhang Fan, want to climb up by any means. Presumably, this is also what Gonggong Liu wants to see. And this climbs up. In addition to meritorious service, it is also necessary to have the appreciation of His Majesty. If only I could have a good reputation. Doesn't Gonggong Liu think it's better? ”

"Okay." Liu Shan said with a smile. Liu Shan's heart was really happy. The so-called famous. This false name is also fame. A deliberately made reputation is also a good reputation. As long as you can have a good name. Who cares if you made it on purpose or not. And such a Zhang Fan. It was exactly what Liu Shan needed.

"Don't talk about that." Zhang Fan put down the tea bowl in his hand. looked at Liu Shan and said. "Zhang Fan has some serious things to talk to his father-in-law."
