Chapter 67: Make the old man happy
Hearing Yan Ming say about the tables and chairs, Tian Wen couldn't sit still. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he held the table, slowly got up, his face was still calm, and said: "I have long heard of the Yan family's tables and chairs, I want to see how amazing it is." β
Listening to the unceremonious meaning in Tian Wen's words, Tian Fengshi secretly glanced at him. Tian Xi shouted coquettishly: "Dad! β
Then a pair of eyes stared at Yan Ming, for fear that Yan Ming's face would not be able to pass.
Yan Ming bowed slightly, clasped his hands into fists and said: "It's just tables and chairs, there is no half point in magic, and convenience is real." β
Looking at Yan Ming's attitude of neither humility nor arrogance, although Tian Wen's face was unhappy, he had some admiration for this future life in his heart. He has also seen a lot of sons and brothers of this age.
is the descendant of the eunuchs who often come out to fight in Chang'an City, and he has not seen it. One by one, with a buoyant temperament, Tian Wen didn't have to be a little annoying.
Yan Ming's respectfulness and bearing have already won Tian Wen's extra points. He deliberately shook his legs and walked out.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, Yan Ming held Tian Wen's arm as if he was his father, and walked out. It seems to be respectful and respectful, giving Tian Wen enough face.
Tian Lu on the side looked at Yan Ming's appearance, and while Tian Wen didn't pay attention, he quietly stretched out his thumb to Tian Xi and his wife in the back, looking at Yan Ming's face full of smiles.
Tian Lu and Tian Wen have been running a rough paper business together since childhood, and this Tian family is no different from his own home. Tian Xi is like his daughter.
Now seeing that Tian Xi's future husband is so polite, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and his bearing is extraordinary, and he is immediately happy. Without waiting for Tian Wen's instructions, he had quietly sent the little maids around him, and asked the back kitchen to start preparing wine and meat for the banquet of the new aunt.
Tian Feng and Tian Xi also followed closely, wanting to see the appearance of the new gadgets that Tian Xi was talking about when he came backβtables and chairs.
When I came outside, there were five or six frames parked outside Tian's house. Not far away, some people were still pointing fingers, saying that these big cars were extraordinary, and at first glance they were used by officials of the DPRK and China.
Yan Ming couldn't help but secretly thank Han Yan, if he hadn't left these big cars, how could he be so face-saving?
Tian Wen didn't care about this, pointed to a few big cars and said, "What about the one car for my Tian family?" β
Seeing this, Yan Ming held his arm and said with a slight smile: "That's the case, the tables and chairs of these cars for the little nephew include Wei Qihou Douying, as well as the servant and the husband, as well as Ji Di Jigong, Sima Xiangru and Han Yan's son." But they all have to stay behind, but you come first, you picked, I'll assign it, and let the coachman send it directly to the house. β
"What?" Tian Wen shook his hands, his body was no longer trembling, and he finally showed a trace of spirit.
He never dreamed that Yan Ming would put him, the future father-in-law of business, at the forefront. The few people Yan Ming said just now are all officials who are now very famous in Chang'an City.
Not to mention anything else, it is Wei Qihou Dou Ying and Han Yan, one is the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dou of the current dynasty, although the Empress Dowager Dou does not like it, but she is also a relative of the emperor.
Needless to say, Han Yan is the emperor's personal guard Lang official, a young man's life, and an unspeakably expensive role in the future.
Such two people have to wait for him Tian Wen to pick them before they can take the rest of the tables and chairs. This shows that his daughter Tian Xi has a very high status in Yan Ming's heart, and she has risen with the tide.
What Tian Wen is most worried about is that Tian Xi ran to Yan's house without permission, which will make people not pay attention to it and think that the girl is frivolous. Now that a stone in my heart has landed, I finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Then who, that Tian Lu, you hurry up and ask the back to prepare wine and meat. After a day's journey, everyone worked hard. Drink some wine and eat some meat to relieve fatigue. Tian Wen summoned Tian Lu.
Tian Xi whispered in his ear and laughed: "Her Uncle Lu has already arranged it, and when you think about it, everyone will be hungry!" β
Tian Wen was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "It's well arranged, it's well arranged." β
Yan Ming followed behind him, and asked Yan Ping and Yan An to lead people to take off all the linen cloths covered on the six carts, and the six sets of tables and chairs were placed in front of Tian Wen.
Yan Ming pointed to the set of well-built tables and chairs on the first car, and whispered in Tian Wen's ear: "This set is completely built according to the set used by the emperor in Weiyang Palace. Engraved with the dragon, that is the emperor's special thing. The quality is the best, and the workmanship is the most exquisite. β
Tian Wen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and immediately got into the first big car and carefully checked the tables and chairs on the car. Although it is not a precious wood, because the top is polished, the whole table looks majestic and eye-catching.
When I touched the riveting place in the dark with my hand, it was as smooth as a piece of wood, which was really hard workmanship.
Tian Wen sighed twice, got out of the car, and got in front of the second car, but before he got up, he shook his head and walked towards the third car......
In just a moment, he inspected several large cars behind him.
When he came back, Tian Wen was already smiling. He found that Yan Ming didn't lie to him, it was really the tables and chairs prepared for him by the first cart that were the best workmanship and the most materials.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, Tian Wen held Yan Ming's arm this time, pulled him and walked into the house, and said as he walked: "Nephew of the Yan family, you said that you would come, and what tables and chairs would you give, isn't it too expensive!" β
Tian Feng, who was in the back, saw that he was not right-mouthed, and couldn't help but glance at him again.
Yan Ming said with a smile on his face: "My father asked me to send a set of filial piety to you a long time ago." It's just that I wanted to build a set for you to the highest specifications, which delayed the construction period. Speaking of which, the little nephew is still guilty of delay! β
"Haha, what a crime of procrastination. Let's go, let's eat and chat. Tian Wen was in a good mood. This set of tables and chairs made him feel more face-saving.
Yan Ming turned his head and saw that Yan Ping had already instructed people to start unloading the tables and chairs on the first car, and he couldn't help but give Yan Ping a thumbs up in his heart. Yan Ping is a careful person, and most things can be thought of in Yan Ming's heart, which makes Yan Ming feel at ease.
"When it's over, let people send these big cars to your house." Yan Ming said.
"Master Hou, this Chang'an is different from our small village, it is getting late, and the night ban will be implemented. If you send it over at this time, I'm afraid you will violate the night ban! Yan Ping arched his hand and said.
Yan Ming patted his head.
In Maolingtun, it is just a small village, and there is no need for a curfew at all. But this is the imperial capital of Chang'an City, and there must be a curfew. If you rush to the night road recklessly, it is not a crime.
"It's my short-sightedness. That's it, now I'll park here for the night. I'll send it over early tomorrow morning. Ask someone to cover it with linen cloth, and there will be moisture and dew in the morning and evening, and it will not be good if it gets wet. Yan Ming said, Yan Ping agreed.
Tian Wen saw Yan Ming's orderly instructions, and he was even more satisfied with this future uncle.
The two of them entered the hall of the Tian family hand in hand, and there were already many oil lamps in the hands of Xiaowu and others, illuminating the entire hall, although it was not as bright as the electric lights of later generations, but it was much brighter than the lights of the Yan family.
Tian Lu stretched out, and had already placed the prepared wine and meat on the table. Tian Wen and his wife naturally knelt on the main seat, and Yan Ming knelt down on the most distinguished guest seat.
On the table in front of him, there were meat and wine bottles.
Since coming to the Han Dynasty, he hasn't knelt for a long time, and Yan Ming is a little unaccustomed to it. Eat a meal of seventy-seven eighty-eight, absent-mindedly. On the one hand, I also have to deal with Tian Wen's Q&A.
Fortunately, Yan Ming, a person who came through in later generations, after the experience of white wine, red wine, beer and rice wine in later generations, finally drank a lot of wine. Drinking the wine brewed in the Han Dynasty is not very good, and it is light and tasteless.
When Tian Wen was already slightly drunk, Yan Ming did not have a trace of alcohol.
A meal is considered to be half-full, not hungry, and the wine is not drunk. However, this is a checkpoint that men must pass through when they go to their daughter-in-law's house, and few people are satisfied with the first meal at their father-in-law's house.
After the banquet dispersed, Yan Ming returned to the guest room arranged for him, lying on the bed, lying in his clothes, his brain was blank, and his stomach seemed to be blank.
At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door outside.
