Volume 2 Battle of the Yellow Turban Chapter 313 Follow the Temptation
(Cat flutter Chinese) () The old man may have never received such courtesy from the "officers and soldiers" again, and he seemed very unaccustomed to it, so he kept rubbing his hands, and only after a long time did he reply in dialect with a little stammering: "Return...... General, after eating......" After speaking, as if he had done something wrong, he quickly stood up, and then knelt down towards Ling Yan.
Ling Yan couldn't afford this, so he hurriedly said, "Grandpa, get up quickly!" With that, he stood up, trotted to the old man, and helped him up.
The old man seemed to be a little unable to believe his eyes, stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly knelt down again: "General......"
Ling Yan hurriedly picked up the old man, then helped the old man to the opposite side of his own seat, and motioned for the old man to sit down.
The old man looked at a loss and did not dare to sit down.
Ling Yan returned to his seat, then smiled and said, "Old man, it's okay, sit down." ”
After a long time, the old man slowly sat down hesitantly, his eyes always staring at Ling Yan, his eyes were full of nervousness.
Ling Yan also sat down, thinking that if the old man had been so restrained, it would be difficult to talk about business, so he smiled and proposed, "Old man, do you like to drink bars?" They definitely didn't give you wine to drink at the dinner just now, hehe......" After speaking, Ling Yan observed the change in the old man's expression.
The old man smacked his mouth, but didn't say anything.
Ling Yan saw that the old man should indeed like to drink, so he ordered outside the tent: "Come on! Serve the food! After speaking, he looked at the old man again, "Old man, let's eat some more." ”
The old man still looked at Ling Yan in a daze and didn't speak.
In a few moments, food and wine were served.
Ling Yan first poured a full bowl of wine for the old man, then poured a bowl for himself, and then picked up the bowl and said to the old man: "Old man, I'll do it first as respect!" After saying that, he drank it all.
Ling Yan saw that in the story of the Three Kingdoms, those generals liked to drink, so he speculated that ancient people, especially the elderly, must like to drink; And in ancient times, drinking wine was important to toast, so Ling Yan did not hesitate to make a bowl first, wanting to make a good impression on the old man.
However, Ling Yan seemed to be heroic, he drank too violently, choked, and coughed desperately as soon as he put down the bowl.
The old man hurriedly said, "General...... Checkmate...... You okay? ”
Ling Yan's choked tears came out, and he quickly wiped his eyes and smiled: "No...... It's okay, drink fast......"
It may be that Ling Yan's appearance is too funny, and the old man couldn't help but smile slightly: "General...... At a young age, he had such a large amount of alcohol...... It's a rarity. ”
Ling Yan smiled reluctantly: "Old man, don't praise me...... How can I drink...... Ahem, old man, you drank it too, this wine...... It's delicious, ahem......"
The look on the old man's face was no longer as nervous as when he first came, and when he saw that Ling Yan sincerely invited him to drink, he also picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one go.
Ling Yan had already eased up and said with a smile: "Grandpa, how is this wine?" Pretty good, right? ”
The old man's expression perked up and he smiled: "Good wine!" ”
Ling Yan was very happy to see that the old man was a little relaxed, and said busily: "Grandpa, don't just drink, eat vegetables and eat vegetables!" ”
The old man's expression suddenly became a little confused, and his lips trembled a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but he never said it.
Ling Yan saw it, so he smiled and said, "Grandpa, what do you want to say, just say it, it's okay." ”
The old man hesitated for a long time, and then he had the courage to say: "General...... It's not like an official......" After speaking, he swallowed hard, and his somewhat cloudy eyes stared at Ling Yan nervously.
After Ling Yan heard this, he felt that the old man was simple and cute, so he laughed: "Grandpa, your eyesight is so good!" I don't even feel like I'm an official! ”
The old man was stunned, probably not expecting Ling Yan to say this.
Ling Yan laughed self-deprecatingly again: "I also feel that I don't have the ability to be a general. ”
The old man was shocked, and hurriedly said: "General Tianwei, ...... so young"
Ling Yan made a gesture to stop and smiled: "Grandpa, you don't have to be so nervous, I am a junior, and I will never do anything that violates morality." ”
The old man probably heard this statement for the first time, and was stunned for a while.
Ling Yan hurriedly persuaded the old man: "Grandpa, come, let's eat!" It is estimated that in Qianzhai, you can't eat such a good one. ”
The old man looked at the food that looked delicious, and said, "There, the food for us is also very good......
Ling Yan let the old man go again, and the old man moved his chopsticks.
The two of them ate and drank like this for a while, and the old man's demeanor seemed more and more relaxed, and he said more and more.
"General...... You are kind-hearted, and you will definitely ...... Achieve a great career......" After another glass of wine, the old man's face turned red, and he looked at Ling Yan with a smile.
Ling Yan had heard this kind of thing a lot, and now he was used to it. He smiled "hehe": "Grandpa, don't say that, I don't have such a big ambition......"
The old man didn't know if he was a little drunk, or if he really thought that Ling Yan would definitely make a difference in the future, so he sighed: "Alas! The times make heroes! ”
Ling Yan didn't fully understand the meaning of this sentence for a while, but he still smiled and answered: "Grandpa, although the times will create heroes, that hero is definitely not me, hehe......"
The old man smiled: "General, if you are a hero, you will definitely do a lot of things." ”
Ling Yan felt that this old man had a very unfathomable taste, and said with a smile: "Old man, don't call me general, just call me Xiao Yan." ”
Although the old man was a little drunk, he was not drunk to that extent, and when he heard Ling Yan say this, he was greatly surprised: "General...... How is this possible? ”
"There's nothing that can't be done, just call me Xiao Yan, the general general, I don't get used to it." Ling Yan smiled, "By the way, the old man's surname is a big name?" ”
The old man hurriedly said: "The untouchables dare not ...... My name is Liu Shi......"
Ling Yan listened to Liu Shi's tone, very awkward: "Grandpa, you talk to me, don't do that, don't treat me as an official, you are an elder, it should be me who respects you." ”
"Don't you dare!" Liu Shi was very flustered, "As a general, you are naturally superior, as civilians, we should be humble, and we must not mess with moral ......"
Ling Yan knew that the hierarchy of ancient feudal society was very strict, so he had no choice but to say, "Old man, then I have to order...... You call me Xiao Yan......" After speaking, Ling Yan smiled bitterly.
"This ...... This...... How good is that? Liu Shi looked very embarrassed.
Ling Yan was very sympathetic to the old man in front of him, he felt that these people in ancient times were firmly "locked" by the feudal shackles, and it was impossible to change their minds in a short period of time.
In order not to embarrass Liu Shi, Ling Yan had no choice but to say: "Old man, you can call me whatever you want, you can call me a general, it doesn't matter if you call Xiao Yan, I don't care about this...... Grandpa, don't be so restrained, there are not so many courtesies here. ”
Liu Shi looked at Ling Yan stunned for a while, and then said, "General...... You really don't care about the number of courtesies? ”
Ling Yan took a bite of food: "Hmm." ”
Liu Shi didn't know why, sighed, and said again after a while: "General, you are sympathetic to the people, if Juye City is in charge of you, it will be fine......"
Ling Yan hurriedly asked, "Grandpa, what's the matter, isn't that Zuo Colonel good?" "Cat flutter Chinese
