Chapter 105: When the Sword Treats Guests
Not long after, Xue Rengui returned to the broken tile kiln with a piece of pork and a jar of wine.
Seeing the meat in Xue Rengui's hand, Liu Yinhuan didn't feel anything. But seeing the jar of wine in Xue Rengui's hand, Liu Yinhuan showed a look of shock.
During the Tang Dynasty, it was not a problem to buy a few catties of meat for five yuan. What's more, I bought pork that only the inferior would eat.
But the price of this wine is different, Li Bai once said in the poem that the golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, such a classic verse.
Although the description in the poem is exaggerated, it can also be seen how expensive the price of wine is.
A small jar of ordinary rice wine (two catties of wine in a small jar and ten catties in a large jar of wine) costs at least 100 yuan. If you want to buy Li Chengqian's Zhenguan drunkenness, a small jar of wine will have to be consistent.
So Liu Yinhuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Xue Rengui coming back with a small jar of wine. Looking down at Xue Rengui's waist, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Then he asked Xue Rengui in a low voice, "Did you sell your ancestral seven-star sword?" ”
"It's just that I'll store it in the pawnshop first, and when I get the money from hunting, it's not too late to redeem it." Xue Rengui smiled and said to Liu Yinhuan.
After Liu Yinhuan sighed, he didn't say anything more. Reaching out and taking the pork, he began to get busy.
It's just that it's still boiled meat, after all, in this era, there are few people who can eat meat like Li Chengqian.
Although the husband and wife spoke in a low voice, they were still heard by Li Chengqian. This couldn't help but make Li Chengqian look at Xue Rengui even more.
It is just human nature for rich people to treat guests with big fish and meat, but Xue Rengui, a person who does not have enough meals, has to give everything he has to treat guests.
So there is no difference between the two, and today Xue Rengui actually gave the ancestral seven-star knife to the pawnshop in order to entertain Li Chengqian. This kind of courage is not something that everyone has.
And Li Chengqian suddenly thought of the name of the Seven Star Knife, which was the treasure knife of Cao Cao's assassination of Dong during the Three Kingdoms period. Why did it pass into Xue Rengui's hands?
Just when Li Chengqian didn't know why, Xue Rengui had already walked over with a smile. And said to Li Chengqian: "The family is poor and has nothing to entertain the little brother, please don't be surprised." ”
"It's okay, I heard my sister-in-law say just now that Brother Xue became the ancestral seven-star knife. Then I don't know what kind of treasure this seven-star knife is? Li Chengqian waved his hand and said to Xue Rengui.
"This is a treasure knife passed down from generation to generation, and it is said that Cao Cao assassinated Dong during the Three Kingdoms period, and it was this seven-star treasure knife that was used." Xue Rengui opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian.
"I also know something about the Three Kingdoms, and it is said that this seven-star knife fell into Dong Zhuo's hands because Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong."
Later, Dong Zhuo died in Lu Bu's hands, and this seven-star knife naturally went to Lu Bu's hands. I don't know why it fell into the hands of Brother Xue's ancestors? Li Chengqian opened his mouth and asked Xue Rengui.
"The ancestor of my family is the uncle of Wenhou Lu Bu. So this treasure knife naturally fell into the hands of my ancestors. Xue Rengui said after smiling.
(It's purely made up by the dragon soul, don't sit in the right seat.) )
Hearing Xue Rengui's words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but be shocked. didn't expect this Xue Rengui to be the descendant of Lu Bu's daughter, no wonder he used the halberd with such infatuation and innocence.
"I didn't expect that Brother Xue's ancestor turned out to be Wen Hou's son-in-law. It seems that I was disrespectful. Li Chengqian hurriedly got up and wanted to salute Xue Rengui.
was stopped by Xue Rengui, and heard Xue Rengui say with a smile: "That was hundreds of years ago, how can it be worth showing off now?" ”
You are right, even if his ancestor is the emperor of the Han Dynasty. It's not like you're in poverty and you're struggling to get on with three meals. At this time, Liu Yinhuan came over with the dishes and said with a smile.
"Since Brother Xue is a descendant of Wen Hou, how can he be a hunter in this mountain wilderness. Listen to what I said, or hurry up to join the army and make meritorious contributions. Li Chengqian said.
"Didn't I tell my brother just now, now that my family has no savings, how can I join the army now? Besides, my wife is pregnant now. Xue Rengui shook his head and said.
"It just so happens that brother, you persuade him, how many times have I told him, the eldest husband should serve the country, what can he do if he is greedy for his wife and children. It's a pity that he turned a deaf ear. Liu Yinhuan shook his head and said.
"Brother Xue, Sister-in-law Xue is right. Now that Brother Xue is at the right age for his blood, if he continues to delay like this, I am afraid that he will lose his fighting spirit. Li Chengqian nodded and said.
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Xue Rengui couldn't help frowning. But he looked at his wife Liu Yinhuan and shook his head again.
And at this time, Cheng stood up suddenly. pointed at Li Chengqian and said, "I've been putting up with you for a long time, just come in and ask for food and drink." Now I want to let the husband and wife share, what kind of heart are you at ease. ”
Li Chengqian was punished or asked suddenly. For a moment, he stammered and didn't know how to answer.
"Sister, sit down quickly, you are not afraid that he will use family law on you again." Su Wan stretched out her hand and said after pulling the ring.
"Sister, don't you think he's gone too far today? Knowing that Brother Xue was reluctant to be his wife, why didn't he help? Cheng Chuhuan said confidently.
Hearing that Chen Chuhuan was unrelenting, Li Chengqian could only shake his head helplessly. Then Jean Su Wan took out a quill pen and letter paper, and wrote a letter on the spot.
And took out a jade seal from his bosom and pressed it at the place where the letter was signed.
After putting the letter in the envelope, he wrote on the envelope that the eldest grandson Chong had personally opened. Then it was handed over to Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui took the letter and couldn't help but be puzzled. looked at the letter in his hand, and then looked at Li Chengqian in front of him.
Then he said, "I don't know what I mean, brother? ”
Brother Xue took this letter and rushed to Chang'an City with Sister-in-law Xue. Give this letter to Changsun Chong. ”
"And tell him that this letter was written to him by Brother Xue's brother." Li Chengqian said to Xue Rengui with a smile.
Although Li Chengqian did not say his identity. However, Xue Rengui also knows that Cheng Qian's identity is definitely extraordinary.
After all, this eldest grandson Chong is the eldest son of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the emperor's concubine today. How could anyone write to him be a common man?
So he respectfully bowed to Li Chengqian and said: "I Xue Rengui can't repay today's kindness. Please also tell me your name, so that I may know whose favor I have received. ”
"What's the difference between Zhang San and Li Si, as long as Brother Xue remembers that I am your brother, it is enough. You and I will see each other again. Li Chengqian said with a smile.
