The Xu family's mansion was very close to the Songlin Academy, and Zhong Hao and Xu Feng arrived in the blink of an eye after leaving the Songlin Academy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhong Hao seemed to be afraid that a big dog would suddenly jump out, and he was a little trembling, and followed Xu Feng into his house, through the front yard and into the flower hall of the second courtyard.

After Zhong Hao and Xu Feng sat down, Xu Feng asked a little maid to instruct the kitchen to prepare a banquet, and by the way, he went to call Si Ming to cook tea, and asked another maid to call Su Xiaotao to meet Zhong Hao.

Soon, Si Ming and two little maids came from the backyard with a set of tea cooking utensils!

They brought a lot of tea cooking and drinking utensils, such as teapots, tea cups, tea cups, tea washers, and trays, and the red clay stoves, peach wood stoves, Zhengpo willow charcoal, tea cans, tea ladles, tea cans, water buckets, fire buckets, etc. are also readily available.

With the help of the two little maids, Si Ming's hands and feet were very quick to put the delicate peachwood stove shelf on the ground, and then put a small red clay stove containing lit willow charcoal on the stove rack, and then put a Jingyang sand body pot for boiling water on it, which was already filled with freshly drawn well water.

In the following things, Si Ming didn't need the help of the two little maids, and Si Ming would complete the rest of the tea cooking matters himself.

After she put the Jingyang sand body pot, she took a small pu fan and used it a few times at the mouth of the wind stove to make the small blue flame on the willow charcoal in the red clay small furnace vigorous, and then used the pu fan to gently fan it to keep the fire in the stove hot.

After a while, the water in the Jingyang sand body pot began to swell hotly.

Si Ming took the teapot and teacup from the teaset he had just brought, took two teacups, and put them together on a rosewood saucer to prepare.

Si Ming took the teapot, lifted the lid on it, made a tea ladle with a Xiangfei bamboo, took out some Wuyi rock tea inside, put it into the blue and white porcelain teapot, and then poured the boiled water into the blue and white porcelain teapot.

After the hot water soaked through the tea leaves, Si Ming poured the tea water into the bucket on the side, and poured some boiling hot water from the Jingyang sand body pot into the blue and white porcelain teapot to make tea.

After waiting for a while, when the tea was ready, Si Ming poured the tea from the teapot into the teacup, and poured another one for Zhong Hao and Xu Feng.

"Xianggong, Zhong Gongzi, please use tea!"

The movements of the tea are very elegant, with a sense of beauty, and it is very pleasing to the eye!

Zhong Hao took the tea cup presented by the cheese tea, tasted it, and felt that the tea was really well cooked, the tea soup was cool, and the entrance was sweet.

In fact, this tea can no longer be regarded as cooking tea, because it should actually be considered brewed tea! In the past, Xu Feng liked and drank boiled tea, and some of them would also drink brewed tea, but he really hadn't drunk this brewed tea. However, when Xu Feng saw that Zhong Hao liked to drink this tea, he also asked Si Ming to try it, but after drinking it a few times, he liked this light tea.

In fact, when Si Ming was in Cui's Mansion before, he really hadn't cooked this kind of brewed tea. The Cui family is a prestigious family, very ancient, and naturally they all drink boiled tea. However, she is very talented in cooking tea, since Xu Feng asked her to cook tea for the first time, she has mastered the trick of brewing tea after cooking a few times, and it is very good to brew tea.

Zhong Hao couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!" The entrance is sweet, the aftertaste is long, it is really good, and the tea cooked by Si Ming's sister-in-law is really fragrant! ”

Seeing that Zhong Hao had finished drinking a cup of tea, Si Ming poured tea for him and said with a smile: "Zhong Gongzi likes it!" ”

At this time, Su Xiaotao also came to the guest flower hall in the second courtyard from the backyard, Zhong Hao saw that his former neighbor and current third sister-in-law are really plump now, with the style of a young woman, it seems that the life after marriage is still relatively moist.

As soon as she entered the door, Su Xiaotao saw Zhong Hao, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Zhong Dacai, I haven't seen you for a long time!" For this friend of his father-in-law and his former neighborhood, Su Xiaotao always couldn't help but think of the funny things that bullied him before, and he couldn't help but feel very good.

Although Zhong Hao saw Su Xiaotao smiling and looked very kind to himself, Zhong Hao didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly got up and saluted very politely: "The little brother has seen the sister-in-law, hehe, the sister-in-law must not call the little brother what Zhong is a big talent, the little brother can't stand it, just call the little brother the word!" ”

Since before the fight, Zhong Hao was afraid of Su Xiaotao, he had really been beaten by Su Xiaotao before, this Su Xiaotao is good at martial arts. Although Zhong Hao now feels that he is already an official, it is unlikely that Su Xiaotao will be rough with him, but for the sake of safety, he still feels that he should be polite to this Su Xiaotao's sister-in-law.

Otherwise, if you really want to annoy her, she will really beat herself up a few times, and she will also stare dryly, she can't do anything with a woman as a dignified man, right?! Of course, even if you do it, you can't beat it! Therefore, if this annoys this sister-in-law, she will basically be beaten, and it will be in vain.

It is precisely because of this that Zhong Hao felt that Xu Feng asked for his help to persuade Su Xiaotao to accept Qing'er and Yun'er, which completely pushed him into the sea of swords and fires, and it was completely a matter of going to the soup and fire!

Su Xiaotao couldn't help but be even more amused when she saw that Zhong Hao was still very wary of herself, and couldn't help but continue to laugh: "What can't you afford to be, if you are not a talent, how can you be a jinshi, and you can also be a jinshi?" Sister-in-law still thinks it's easy to call Zhong Dacai!"

Zhong Hao was very helpless when he heard Su Xiaotao's obvious ridicule, but he didn't dare to refute it, so he had to laugh and say: "Sister-in-law thinks it's appropriate, just call it whatever you want!" "Zhong Hao is also a character in front of outsiders, and it is rare to be so constrained. Alas, the main reason is that when Su Xiaotao used to be, the shadow left on Zhong Hao was too profound!

After Su Xiaotao sat down on a yellow rosewood circle chair opposite Zhong Hao and Xu Feng, Si Ming immediately stepped forward to put a rosewood saucer and a Junyao celadon tea cup in front of her, poured fragrant tea for her, and then stood quietly beside her.

Su Xiaotao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then smiled at Zhong Hao and said, "I heard that Wenxuan and Miss Fu Er got married?" "Just now, Su Xiaotao said that he called Zhong Hao Zhong a talented man, but he was just joking with him. Zhong Hao is now also an official from Jinshi, and occasionally making a harmless joke can adjust the relationship, but if it is too much, it will be inappropriate. Su Xiaotao is now the eldest woman in the family, and she is very good at dealing with people, and she is very comfortable in dealing with her in this regard.

Zhong Hao heard Su Xiaotao's question, and said with a smile: "Well, yes, before coming to Qingzhou, we got married in Tokyo, and this time I came to Qingzhou to bring my relatives to the province!" ”

Su Xiaotao listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help complaining: "Then why did you come by yourself today, and you didn't bring Ruozhu to play!" I haven't seen her in years, and I miss her. ”

Zhong Hao hurriedly explained: "Another day, the younger brother will definitely let Ruozhu come to visit his sister-in-law, today the younger brother is mainly going to visit Master Xu, I didn't think that there was a little junior brother there, everyone chatted too lively, this time it was noon, so I was pulled by the third brother to my sister-in-law's house, and the younger brother didn't bring any gifts today!" Ruozhu came from Tokyo this time, and gave a gift to his sister-in-law, and the younger brother and Ruozhu came to see his sister-in-law again another day, and by the way, bring the gift she brought to you! ”

Su Xiaotao listened to Zhong Hao's words, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Wenxuan is so polite, why do you need to be so polite here?!" What do we have to do with each other, how can we bring any gifts, you are too out-of-this! ”

Zhong Hao smiled: "It's not a valuable gift, it's just some gouache, rouge and perfume from Tokyo's time-honored "Drunken Jade Fang", which is not worth much!" It's just that Ruozhu thinks that we can't buy these in Qingzhou City, so I brought some for my sister-in-law! ”

Everyone has a love for beauty, especially women! There is no woman who doesn't like these rouge gouaches, it is Su Xiaotao who heard that Fu Ruozhu brought her some gouache, rouge and perfume from Tokyo's time-honored brand "Drunken Jade Fang", and couldn't help but be very happy, and said with a smile at the moment: "Sister Ruozhu is really hearty!" ”

Su Xiaotao chatted with Zhong Hao for a while, asked him some experiences and experiences in the northwest and south to quell the rebellion, and admired Zhong Hao's experience in the past few years.

Soon, the back kitchen of Xu's mansion said that the banquet was ready, and Xu Feng asked the maid to put the wine and food on the table in this flower hall.

Su Xiaotao saw that the banquet was about to start, so she had to say goodbye and go to the backyard, and let Xu Feng accompany Zhong Hao to drink and talk. Although the atmosphere of the Great Song Dynasty was much more civilized than that of the later Ming and Qing dynasties, it was not easy for men and women to sit together. Of course, except for the girls in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, their own profession is to accompany guests.

But Xu Feng opened his mouth to persuade Su Xiaotao to also join the table, saying that Zhong Hao was his brother, and he hadn't seen him for several years, so let's talk about it together, and there was no need to talk so much about courtesy. Besides, Su Xiaotao and Zhong Hao used to be neighbors, and they knew each other earlier than the two of them, Zhong Hao is still the matchmaker of the two of them, and there is nothing inappropriate about joining the table together.

Zhong Hao also sat down with Su Xiaotao, and everyone talked about their feelings after farewell.

Su Xiaotao saw that her father-in-law and Zhong Hao persuaded her like this, so she was naturally embarrassed to leave, so she took advantage of the situation to enter the table together.

The reason why Xu Feng left Su Xiaotao was so that Zhong Hao would persuade her later, so that she could agree to the two little girls he brought from Tokyo, Qing'er and Yun'er, to pass through the door.

Those two little maids haven't let them into the backyard yet, and now they are living with those maids in the front yard, Xu Feng really feels a little sorry for them. If he didn't take advantage of Zhong Hao to persuade Su Xiaotao here, Xu Feng really had a headache about this matter.

As soon as he arrived in Qingzhou yesterday, Xu Feng was originally happily going home, but when he entered the door, Su Xiaotao still gave him face very much, and praised himself for his ability, saying that he was really a Wenqu star who could be a Jinshi, she really married the right person, and she didn't say anything to the two little girls Xu Feng brought back.

But when his father went to Songlin Academy, he and Su Xiaotao returned to the backyard, and as soon as the door was closed, Su Xiaotao's face changed greatly. It's a beating to hold yourself, and you drove the two little girls to the front yard! Alas, Xu Feng has a headache when he thinks about it, and it's all tears when he talks too much!

It is said that the reunion after a long absence is exactly the situation of Xiao Biesheng's newlywed, but Xu Feng didn't even enter Su Xiaotao's door last night. Therefore, Xu Feng was afraid that Su Xiaotao would have another attack this morning, so he had to accompany his father early and help him prune the flower branches.

After Su Xiaotao came in just now, he and Zhong Hao could talk and laugh, but they hadn't talked to Xu Feng, and they were obviously still angry about the two concubines he brought back!

Therefore, Xu Feng took advantage of Zhong Hao to persuade Su Xiaotao to stay and chat and reminisce together, in fact, the main reason was to let Zhong Hao take the opportunity to persuade Su Xiaotao.

Although Xu Feng didn't have much hope for Zhong Hao to persuade Su Xiaotao, it was better to let him try it than to do nothing and try nothing.

After the little maids put the wine and food together, Xu Feng beckoned Zhong Hao to sit down! Immediately, Xu Feng greeted Su Xiaotao with some carelessness.

Although Su Xiaotao was angry with Xu Feng, but in front of outsiders, she still had to save some face for Xu Feng, and when she saw that Xu Feng invited her to the table, she didn't have anything else, and sat down in the seat very elegantly.

After Su Xiaotao sat down, she behaved very decently, chatting with Zhong Hao very warmly, but talking and laughing! Moreover, Su Xiaotao drank a lot of wine, and he and Zhong Hao exchanged cups and staggered plans, but they really drank a few glasses.

It's just that Su Xiaotao is still cold to Xu Feng, she doesn't smile, and she doesn't talk to him!

Zhong Hao is shouldering an important task today, in order to reduce the possibility that Su Xiaotao will turn his face and use force against him later, he chose to say it as good, and he was also very flattering to Su Xiaotao, and really praised Su Xiaotao's generosity, and the way he was in charge, but he was really happy to praise Su Xiaotao.

Seeing that Zhong Hao and Su Xiaotao were already chatting very warmly, Xu Feng felt that the heat was almost over, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhong Hao frequently, signaling him to hurry up and talk about today's topic.

Zhong Hao was helpless when he saw this, although he was a little afraid that Su Xiaotao would beat himself up, but who let himself owe Xu Feng love, he still gritted his teeth and persuaded Su Xiaotao to agree to Xu Feng's matter of taking Qing'er and Yun'er as concubines. When he greeted his relatives that day, people "risked death" to help him break through from the stick of his son-in-law, but he really suffered a lot of beatings that day, and the son-in-law's chanting poems that day were all done by him, and he really contributed a lot to himself, Xu Feng has been talking about this, and he can't help but be righteous, even if he is beaten today, he has to help him intercede, and persuade Su Xiaotao to accept the fact that Xu Feng accepts Qing'er and Yun'er as concubines!

As soon as Su Xiaotao heard Zhong Hao mention this, she was about to go berserk!

Zhong Hao hurriedly said good things desperately, desperately praised Su Xiaotao, praised her generosity, virtuousness, reasonableness, etc., anyway, the good words were all said, which made her feel a little more comfortable and listen to Zhong Hao's persuasion with peace of mind.

Zhong Hao talked about feelings and analyzed the facts, and talked endlessly for a long time!
