Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has passed late autumn, farewell to the cold winter, and comes to the spring of March in the new year.

I saw that at the foot of Yecheng South Mountain, more than a dozen people were riding horses, holding bows and arrows, shouting hounds, and hunting roe deer, rabbits, and wolverines in the woods. The four people in the lead lined up and walked in a row, it was none other than Gao Huan and others.

The four brothers met today to hunt at the foot of this South Mountain, only to see a cold winter just after the new year, the appearance of the revival of heaven and earth, everywhere peach blossoms, green grass, and gurgling streams. The trees also woke up from the cold wind and snow, sending out new shoots and sprouts.

Gao Huan now knows why the local tyrants in the past and present like hunting, this is a kind of aristocratic sport, a symbol of status, only people with high status or wealth can shout to drive the little guys to run around the mountains with hunting dogs, and Gao Huan is now very fascinated by the activities of those high society, like what kind of poetry is to make wine to the sky, and to have fun with Kabuki in the wine shop, and for example, this hunting activity, Gao Huan is a little fascinated by the gentle township, drunk to death The meaning of wine in the cup. Great ambitions began to depart from him. He felt that he was living happily with his brothers in this way, and there was a lover like Ruyi at home, accompanied by his mother and sister, and this life seemed to be enough.

"Brothers, there is my Zhuangzi in front, let's go there and drink some wine, and let the little guys wash and wash today's prey and eat it, okay?" Sun Teng said to the other three.

"That's very good, and that's what I mean." Sima Ziru agreed: "I heard that you have a batch of fine wine hidden in the village, and you want to take it out and share it with your brothers today." ”

"Haha, the second brother is really cunning, even if my sister-in-law comes to Yecheng in the future, our brothers will have a place to get together and have fun." He Batsheng was also very happy.

Gao Huan is often hunting, and he is also perfect in riding and archery, and he and He Batsheng often compete in martial arts together, and they do not lose half a point in hand-to-hand combat. This kid didn't break his word, he has been pursuing Wang Ling for nearly half a year since last autumn, but the girl is determined, she can drink, sing and dance, but do something else, I'm sorry: no! I didn't let him take advantage of it.

When He Batsheng heard Gao Huan say this, he immediately echoed: "What the third brother said is that the second brother can take Wang Ling to the village and talk about wine, how happy is it?" ”

"Fourth brother, the third brother is joking, making fun of you, do you believe this?" Sun Teng looked at He Batsheng with a sad face, as if he was looking at a fool. "Don't say that I personally invited her, even if a dignitary who is more powerful than me invites her, she will never come here, because she never leaves Yecheng for half a step."

"Hey, why is this woman so strange?" Sima Ziru asked incredulously, interested in this Wang sister. I only thought of them as ordinary kabuki before, and I never knew them in depth. Because there is no need, he Sima Ziru is not He Batsheng, he is a person who has seen the world, the Kabuki in Luoyang City is not as much as the carp crossing the river than this Yecheng, if everyone likes it themselves, and they all like it, I am afraid that they would have died of exhaustion in the gentle township of Luoyang.

"Only the fourth hillbilly, Wang Ling, can be seen by ordinary goods. There is also the third child, who has such a fierce concubine at home, not to mention his appearance, and often bullies him, and he can still be a treasure every day. Sima Ziru often commented on these two people in his heart, and he looked down on their aesthetic vision and taste, and he was an elegant literati and artist.

The group talked and laughed and arrived at Sun Teng's Zhuangzi, only to see a large courtyard with blue tiles and white walls, and there were fertile fields and trees on the side of the Zhuangzi. A big road leads to the east and west, and the two servants in front of the main gate are waiting for Gao Huan and others, and Sun Teng sent the little servant to inform the Zhuangzi of the wine and food that is preparing for the banquet earlier.

"Hahaha, second brother, how much did you embezzle to buy this big manor? I see that your Zhuangzi is at least more than 30 hectares, which is very expensive, right? Gao Huan asked jokingly.

Sima Ziru and He Batsheng looked at Gao Huan strangely, as if Gao Huan was like a nerd. I only heard Sun Teng laugh and said, "Third brother, are you joking?" It's not a problem to buy two or three of such a Zhuangzi with your current status? Nowadays, the world is not peaceful, how expensive can such a Zhuangzi be? ”

Gao Huan looked dazed, he never went home, but when he asked about the family's use, he didn't know where the money he earned went, and he didn't know how to buy property and do business, because he ...... I just walked through, and I've been very busy, busy making a living, busy fighting, busy running for my life, busy enjoying life with Sima Ziru and the three of them, and I haven't thought of this stubble yet.

When I go back, I want to ask my mother, where did she put all my money, and if I want to come back, I will also buy a Zhuangzi to pretend to be a big household. Gao Huan thought to himself.

"Second brother, how much can you collect for a year's rent in this Zhuangzi?" Sima Ziru also asked a little curiously.

"My Zhuangzi is mainly for accumulation, and there are few tenants, so I can earn 10,000 or 20,000 silver a year." Sun Teng is also honest, but there is really no need to hide it, except for Gao Huan, the other two are from big families, and they will definitely not borrow money from him.

After Gao Huan heard this, his mouth opened into an O-shape, and he secretly said in his heart: I am obedient, one Zhuangzi will enter the account for one or two hundred thousand silver a year, no wonder the second brother has lived such a luxurious and erosive life, there is a big house in the city, and there is a Zhuangzi villa outside the city.

Gao Huan made up his mind at the moment, and when he went back, he must also buy a manor house to make money, this property is the same way to make money for thousands of years, where there are people, you need to live and eat, this manor seems to be really good.

The four of them laughed and crossed the courtyard of the courtyard into the main hall. After not waiting for a while, some dishes were placed on the table one after another, such as braised rabbit stewed with bamboo shoots, this slippery and rotten fresh rabbit meat with freshly sprouted bamboo shoots is delicious. There is also wolverine meat stewed in a pot of traditional Chinese medicine tonic ingredients, just open the pot, the house is full of fragrance. There is also roasted roe deer meat, which is sliced and placed on a plate, sprinkled with spices and served, dipped in the condiments, which melts in the mouth and leaves a fragrant mouth.

The four of them couldn't wait to gather around the table to make a drink, and their mouths were full of oil. This tip of China is just like this moment. Gao Huan thought to himself.

Seeing that the sun was gradually setting in the west, the four of them were already eating and drinking in the front hall, full of drunkenness. Gao Huan got up and said, "Brothers, sit less, I'll go and make it convenient." "It's a matter of drinking too much and going to the toilet.

This Sun family manor is no better than the courtyard of the deep mansion over there in the Tianwang Mansion, under the guidance of the little maid, Gao Huan found the toilet for a while, and when he was refreshed, he suddenly heard the sound of a woman playing not far from the courtyard wall. aroused Gao Huan to be very curious, lifted his pants and lay on his toes on the courtyard wall to look out.

I saw that more than a dozen steps away from the courtyard wall, a young girl wearing a green tulle skirt under a poplar tree was swinging, and a red-clothed maid was laughing with the waiter on the side, the two didn't seem to know that Gao Huan was peeping, and the girl didn't know what the maid said. Unexpectedly, his feet slipped, stepped on a rotten tile, and there was a snap, and the two girls followed the sound, only to see Gao Huan staring at herself stunned, and the girl pursed her lips and smiled: "Which demented son, his eyes are shining, like a thief." The maid also echoed casually: "It's just that, like a nerd, stunned." The two sneered.

Gao Huan was very embarrassed, wanted to cross the wall and salute the girl, but felt very reckless, and hurriedly chased out the door along the root of the wall, three steps and two steps to the poplar tree, the two girls had already gone to the swing, Gao Huan looked left and right, very disappointed back to the Zhuangzi, and secretly said in his heart: "This girl is really good-looking, if I can catch her up, how good it is, take it home and be a companion again, wouldn't it be cool to hug left and right." As the so-called fair lady and gentleman, Gao Huan planned to ask Sun Teng about the identity of this girl.

Once a man is bold, they often dare to do it even if they cut off their heads, how many heroes and heroes since ancient times have not been angry at the crown and become red-faced, such as Wu Sangui. Gao Huan only had the figure of the girl in his mind at this time, and he couldn't remember that there was a big vinegar vat and a small Ruyi at home.

Sun Teng also said with a blank face when he heard Gao Huan's question: "Don't hide it from the third brother, I rarely come to this Zhuangzi, and I only come once or twice a year." I really don't know who lives around, so let's call the steward in Zhuangzi to ask for you. ”

Gao Huan was already fascinated at this time, and said repeatedly: "Thank you, second brother." "Imagine the hard single dog life in my previous life, in addition to the life trajectory of two points and one line, life is mostly boring and boring, to borrow a sentence from Song Xiaobao: I live a really dry life! Now that they have crossed over, after going through hardships, these beauties have sprung up one by one like mushrooms after a rain, making Gao Huan's psychology and body a little overwhelmed. wants to bring the psychology of the beauty home as a man, and the author understands Gao Huan's classmates very well.

The person in charge of the Zhuangzi is an old man in his fifties, named Zhao Youcai, who is a shrewd person at first glance, and when he heard Sun Teng ask about the girl, the old man said thoughtfully: "What the official said is not the niece of Li Hanyue, who came to the village to visit relatives the month before last?" ”

"Who is this Li Hanyue?" Sun Teng and Gao Huan asked at the same time, and Gao Huan glanced at Sun Teng embarrassedly.

"Li Hanyue is the governor of Yecheng Terracotta Division, there is a distant relative in this village, came here in the early part of the previous month, said that he came to visit the mountains and rivers, but he didn't stay for a few days and left a few nieces and maids, and he returned to Yecheng again. The old man was talking about his niece. ”

"Who should I be? It turned out to be just a little governor of the Terracotta Division, third brother, you really like that little lady, now go to his house to propose relatives and do things. Sima Ziru also supported Gao Huan. can look at the niece of the governor is also Li Hanyue's creation, forgive him and dare not oppose these celebrities under Er Zhurong.

Gao Huan felt that not only could he not win the girl's confidence, but he was suspected of bullying men and women, he didn't do this when he crossed over, but we are also handsome men, and we are still in the rising period of our careers, so we can't do this.

"That's it, how about the second brother please arrange for me to meet with the relatives of Li Hanyue's family tomorrow, I think you also need to visit in person to get married, and the two sides will see below to find out." Gao Huan is very satisfied with his current situation, and he should not be rejected.

Sun Teng immediately sent someone to inform Li Hanyue's relatives that he would visit tomorrow. That night, the group stayed in Sun Tengzhuang and drank until late at night, Gao Huan thought that he would be able to see the beautiful girl again tomorrow, and he couldn't sleep after a night of excitement.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was polished, Gao Huan got up to freshen up, put on new clothes to dress up, and prepared some rabbits, roe deer and other wild meat he hunted yesterday as gifts.

Sun Teng yawned and was pulled up by Gao Huan, sat on the side with sleepy eyes squinted and said, "Third brother, you are too anxious, it's only morning, and everyone hasn't gotten up yet, so it's not good for us to come to the door like this." ”

"Don't hide it from the second brother, the younger brother didn't sleep all night last night, and I just want to see the woman as soon as possible." Gao Huan is honest, Sun Teng is a little surprised, this He Liuhun is usually calm and resourceful on the battlefield. Why did he lose his temper like He Batsheng when he arrived at the Beauty Pass, like a fool.

finally survived breakfast, and Sun Teng took Gao Huan to visit Li Hanyue's relatives.
