Chapter 087: Reception Banquet
"Xiaoyu, I'm so happy to see you back to Guangling again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info During your absence, I can't find a capable person like you to help me solve the problems encountered in my official mansion. When Yuan County Ling learned the news of Lu Xiaoyu's return, he even put down the official business he was busy with and came to visit Lu Xiaoyu.
"Yuan County Order, you're okay. In the past, I was the one who caused you to be a burden, and this time when I come back, you can ask me to help you if you need my help. ”
"Xiaoyu, it's enough to have your words. My old bones are still strong, and I can't die. I've got some tricky business to talk to you about in a moment. Yuan Xianling happily patted Lu Xiaoyu's shoulder.
Yuan Xianling and Han Xin met again, and the two had met in the Qiantang dungeon before, so they could be regarded as old acquaintances. In this way, today's Kaifeng Wuyi brand new gathering, plus Yuan Xianling, Han Xin and Xiao He sat together, eating the steaming hot pot invented by Lu Xiaoyu before, everyone talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very warm.
"By the way, Yuan County Order, I have to thank you."
"Xiaoyu, I haven't done anything for you, what do you want to thank?"
"You married your precious daughter to my fifth brother, how can I not thank you."
It turned out that after listening to Yuan County's explanation, he didn't intend to marry his daughter to Tao Kan before. It's just that Yuan Xianling was arrested and taken to Qiantang before, and the Yuan family had no support, Yuan Xiaohua, the daughter of Yuan Xianling, was forced to helplessly, knowing that Lu Xiaoyu's family had a close relationship with Yuan Xianling, so she came to ask for help. happened to meet Tao Kan, the two were of the same age and fell in love, so Yuan Xiaohua often pretended to talk to Chen Qingyan and Huan'er to secretly have trysts with Tao Kan. The two of them also fell in love for a long time, and later after Yuan Xianling came back, he found the clue, and saw that Tao Kan was also a righteous gentleman, and he did not overstep his courtesy to his daughter, so he pushed the boat down the river to fulfill the two of them.
"By the way, virtuous son-in-law, speaking of my daughter, didn't you let Xiaoyu come back sooner?" Yuan Xianling blamed him.
"Father-in-law, Xiaohua has been busy with Huan'er in the past few days, and there may be some delays, so I'll urge them." Tao Kan lost his previous childishness, and became very calm when he spoke to Yuan Xianling, Lu Xiaoyu saw it in his eyes, and was very relieved, this child has become a parent, and he has grown a lot.
After a while, Tao Kan came back with Yuan Xiaohua and Huan'er. Lu Xiaoyu saw that although Yuan Xiaohua was not as good as Chen Qingyan and Xiong Zhen'er, she also belonged to everyone who was beautiful and wise, and Lu Xiaoyu was happy that Tao Kan could marry such an excellent woman. Yuan Xiaohua and Huan'er saw everyone and were blessed together.
Lu Xiaoyu learned from Yuan Xiaohua that since he had a whim to start a health center last time, he was most interested in these female relatives in the family. Chen Qingyan took the lead and also called on many ingenious city sisters to participate. These women themselves were born very low, some of their ancestors were still slaves, and many of them almost sold themselves to do ***, but Chen Qingyan persuaded them to follow them to learn some massage techniques and make the essential oil mask that Lu Xiaoyu said.
When I first started doing it, the health center was often not welcomed by the people. If they hadn't learned that these health centers were all opened by Lu Xiaoyu, who was famous in Guangling City and thought about the people, they might have made the health center restless. Although the massages and other treatments performed in these health centers were also shocking in ancient times, they were easy to attract criticism from others. But after all, these health centers are serious business, and the more people who go there, and understand it clearly, they gradually have more kindness to it, and no one slanders it anymore. Now, the ladies in Guangling City and even women from other places come to the health center to experience. Yuan Xiaohua proposed to Lu Xiaoyu that in the future, several health centers should be opened in various parts of Nanchu, and Lu Xiaoyu was naturally happy to do it.
"Xiaoyu, you won't come to Guangling this time just to find you Chen Qingyan, there should be more important things to do, right?" Yuan County Ling also knew that Chen Qingyan was sad and left Guangling because of Lu Xiaoyu's marriage with the county lord, and followed her father to a place where she didn't know.
As soon as Chen Qingyan was mentioned, Lu Xiaoyu's just happy mood became lost again.
"Dad, why don't you open the pot and mention the pot, Fourth Brother Lu finally came back and said something happy. I believe that the fourth brother and sister Chen will definitely have lovers and eventually become married. Yuan Xiaohua glared at Yuan Xianling, who was not afraid of heaven and earth on weekdays, saw his daughter glaring at him, knew that he had said the wrong thing, and buried his head.
"It's okay, brother and sister, don't blame Yuan County Ling, I believe that the matter of me, the county lord and Qingyan will definitely have a good ending in the future, I believe that day will come." Lu Xiaoyu took a sip of a glass of spirits and poured another glass.
Li Yisheng was afraid that his fourth brother would get himself drunk, so he hurriedly took his wine glass, "Fourth brother, don't drink it patronizingly, tell us what interesting things happened in Qiantang, and you came back this time, I heard the fifth brother say that you came to buy a lot of cotton, what's going on." ”
Lu Xiaoyu was accosted by Li Yi like this, forgot about the troubles just now, and began to talk about his newly built coin and salt farm in Qiantang. Although Lu Xiaoyu didn't mention King Wu Yue's rebellion, everyone had heard some of Yuan County's order. Lu Xiaoyu made him the general of the Flying Tiger Army again, and he came to Guangling this time to find a few very important raw materials.
Li Da and Zhao Su are good at martial arts, and when they heard Lu Xiaoyu say that they had become generals, they said excitedly: "Since our fourth brother has become a general, how can we, who are brothers, nest in the rear and engage in logistics and supply." Fourth brother, the biggest wish of the brothers is to join the army one day and drive the Yi people in the north out of our Central Plains. You can take us back with you this time. ”
Li Yi also agreed, although he was quite interested in settling accounts and running these things, but whenever he woke up in the middle of the night in the nightmare of being chased and killed by the Khitans, he thought about joining the army to fight against foreign enemies.
At this time, Tao Kan was still hesitating there, glancing at Yuan Xiaohua with his eyes from time to time. Lu Xiaoyu understood his thoughts, "Fifth brother, you just stay in Guangling, there must always be a person in charge here, after all, you are also a person who has already started a family, I don't want to always drag you by my side, otherwise my brother and daughter-in-law will be unhappy." This time, I will bring a few brothers back to the army. ”
"This ......," Tao Kan was embarrassed. At this time, Yuan Xiaohua said: "Fourth brother, you can take Tao Kan to the army together." Good boy is at ease, and I know he's willing to follow you. I don't want to give up on my child's dream because of his personal feelings. ”
Tao Kan looked at Yuan Xiaohua excitedly and affectionately, "Thank you, lady." ”
Yuan Xianling also said: "Yes, a good man is at ease in all directions, I am proud to have such a good son-in-law and such an understanding good daughter!" Hahaha, come, let's raise a glass and drink together. ”
Everyone raised their glasses and drank bitterly, and the pleasant atmosphere lasted until midnight.
