Just as I was contemplating the future, the door creaked open, and a man walked in, listening to the strong wind that he walked, and it was evident that this man was walking steadily, and it must have been a man. And when this man got closer, I couldn't help but look at it, it was indeed a man, very heroic and strong, and his face was resolute and extraordinary. The hair on his head was tied in a coarse cloth strip, and he was also wearing a coarse linen shirt. Although this person's family background is not good, but he exudes a calm temperament, and he is not a vulgar person. When he saw that I was awake, he asked, "How do you feel?" "This is a man with a Shanxi accent.

I said, "It's okay, but I feel a little weak and can't sit up very much." ”

He said, "Listen to your accent, it's from Yandi, right?" ”

His question reminded me that a long time ago, Beijing was the Kyoto of Yan Kingdom, and the accent of Yan people was the Beijing dialect we spoke. Most people in Yandi have short hair, and I spoke Mandarin when I talked to him, so he thought I was from Yandi.

I said, "Sort of, I don't know what your Excellency is called?" ”

He said: "It's just a small name, not enough to worry about; I have already cooked the meal, and I wanted to call you out to eat with you, but since you are so weak, I will bring it for you. ”

I shook my head and said, "No, please give me a hand, I'm not weak enough to be served." ”

He said, "Well, then. ”

Immediately he helped me up, but my body was so weak that even with his support I could barely stand still. When he saw that I was so weak, he said, "You are also a strong man, how can you be so weak, could it be that you have some disease, do you want me to call a doctor for you?" ”

Doctor, please? No kidding, your family is so poor, it's strange that you can afford to be a doctor.

I smiled and said, "No need, it's just that I've been injured in practice recently, so it's good to rest and rest." ”

He nodded and said, "In that case, then lie down, and I'll bring the food." ”

I smiled and said, "The last thing I like as a person is to give in to tribulation, because that makes me feel cowardly, which is what I have always been a human being, and as long as I don't die, I can't go against it." ”

He couldn't help but smile and said, "I can't see that I am also a person with integrity, okay, a certain family will help you." ”

Normally, the words used by ancient people to converse were divided into several situations. In general, the names of friendship between peers are "you" and "I", and "you" and "we" are used when writing letters. Warriors are called "foot" to show respect for each other, and "someone" to express humility to themselves; The scribe addressed each other with respect, the older one as "Gong", the younger one as "Gong", and the one who showed modesty to himself as "Contemptible". In addition, the word of the other person is also a salutation to show respect. Of course, the above is mainly for men. As for women, they are mainly divided into married and unmarried, married can be called "Mrs.", and unmarried can be called "Miss". These are the mainstream titles, while others will have different names in different eras, different regions, different identities, etc.

In other words, the only bad thing in ancient times was these overly complicated etiquette systems, usually if there was a place to address others inadequately, it seemed to be a mistake at the time, and many people with status would even regard such things as an insult and violation to themselves. And people who grow up in this environment will inevitably have their minds distorted and do things that make people seem ridiculous.

As he walked out slowly, I saw a stone table set up in the fenced courtyard outside the house, on which were placed two dishes and a soup, and a pot of wine. I can't help but be a little surprised, I can't see that his family background is not good, his life is quite good, he can make two dishes and one soup, it should not be intentional to entertain me, right?

He helped me sit on the stone bench, and I looked at the dishes in front of me, both meat and vegetarian, and I couldn't help but sigh a little in my heart. Although the thinking of ancient people was relatively pedantic, they were very simple, which is very valuable. I couldn't help but smile and said, "It's really a waste of money." ”

He couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Oh, I think I'm older than you; It doesn't matter, this green vegetable is grown in my own field, this meat is my hunting, and this wine is also brewed by myself. ”

I nodded and said, "I see, then thank you brother." ”

He said, "You're polite, I don't know if you are weak enough to drink?" ”

I said, "It's okay, drinking less should be out of the way." ”

He nodded and said, "Okay, you can drink less." ”

Immediately he poured half a bowl into my bowl, and he poured a full bowl himself, and then he took the bowl and said, "Come, so-and-so." ”

I couldn't help but pick up the bowl and replied, "You're welcome." ”

So, we both drank the wine in our bowls, and when the wine entered my stomach, I suddenly felt some strength in my body. All of a sudden, I thought it was very strange, how could this wine still have the effect of restoring physical strength? I'm going to have to drink a little more.

I couldn't help but smile and say, "This wine is really good, after drinking it, I feel much more comfortable, and I don't seem to be so weak." ”

He said, "In that case, let's drink more." As he spoke, he brought me another full bowl.

I nodded and said, "Okay, I don't know what kind of wine this is, it has the effect of restoring physical strength?" ”

He replied: "Oh, this is an old wine made from deer antler velvet, deer whip and tiger whip, which does have the function of nourishing the body. ”

No wonder, daring is an aphrodisiac wine, seeing that his body is so strong, it is estimated that he usually drinks less.

I nodded, and then asked, "I think you are alone in this family, Ling Zun and Ling Tang are still alive?" ”

He said: "My parents have long since died, and now I am the only one left in the family. ”

I couldn't help but say, "I'm so sorry, I was too abrupt." ”

He smiled and said, "It's okay. Then he raised his glass again and said, "Come, and so-and-so will pay respect." ”

I couldn't help but say: "Brother, please forgive me for saying that wine is not drunk like this, although it seems very arrogant to drink a whole bowl in one sip, but it is really equivalent to wasting fine wine, and it hurts the body, it is really not cost-effective." ”

He couldn't help asking, "I don't know what to think about this wine?" ”

I smiled and said, "Of course, you should take a sip in your mouth to let the aroma of the wine penetrate your taste buds, and when your taste buds feel extremely refreshed, you can swallow it in one gulp, and that feeling is very good." ”

"Oh?" When he heard what I said, he couldn't help but be a little skeptical. I said, "Look, just like me." So I showed him a demonstration and said, "Remember, be sure to hold it in your mouth and let the aroma penetrate your taste buds before you swallow it." ”

"Okay, I'll give it a try." When he saw that the method of tasting wine I said seemed to be very interesting, he planned to give it a try, but when he did it according to my method, he couldn't help but nod his head and say, "Well, what I said is true, this method does have a unique flavor." ”

I smiled and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, the age of the brother is not too young, why haven't you started a family yet?" ”

He sighed and said: "In the early years, my father set a family affair for me, but at that time it was the period when I kept filial piety for my mother, and I wanted to keep filial piety at the end of the period, so I handled the marriage. Now that filial piety has expired, this family business can no longer be fulfilled. ”

I was puzzled: "What, the woman regretted the marriage?" ”

He shook his head and said: "That's not it, it's just because of the draft in the palace the year before last, my wife who didn't pass the door was selected and screened into the palace to serve, and I think I won't have a chance to see each other again in this life." ”

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and said, "This world is really unfair! ”

He sighed and looked a little sad, and then took up the bowl and drank it all. When I saw him like this, I was quite touched in my heart, so I said: "Brother Tai doesn't have to be depressed, it's really not good, just find another one?" ”

He shook his head and said, "My family is surrounded by walls and penniless, and whose girl is willing to follow me to suffer in poverty." ”

I said, "I see that you are also a person with martial arts, why don't you go and find a half-official position?" ”

He couldn't help but sigh again: "I don't know what to do, in today's world, if you want to enter the officialdom to get an errand, you need to pay a certain amount of money, and all ministry positions are clearly marked. ”

I'll go! This is simply a capitalist society, dare to feel that our country has already transitioned from capitalism in ancient times, no wonder the socialist system was directly implemented after liberation.

I couldn't help but sigh and said, "The world is really dark enough in these years, these people in power are really not a thing!" ”

He smiled and shook his head, and said, "Don't talk about this, the dishes are almost cold, hurry up and eat them." ”

I nodded and said, "Okay." ”

At this moment, I can't help but make a plan in my heart, if I can't go back, then I will find something to do in this era, no matter what, at least to help this woman marry a daughter-in-law, and it can be regarded as a favor for him.
