When he came to the bottom of the Cross Street Restaurant, Xiao Xi Nu Wuling shouted: "Stop." The group of drummers suddenly stopped their respective instruments, and the gongs and cymbals still lingered - Wu Ling raised his head and shouted to Zhang Yuan, who was looking down from the window in the restaurant: "Young master, the head of the government test case, the head of the case again!" ”

Zhang Yuan threw a stone in his heart casually, and he didn't know if it would hit the people downstairs, smiled, the more he laughed, the happier he became, and then he laughed, it was not easy, 1,600 Confucian children from Shanyin County participated in the government examination, and only one hundred and twenty people passed, and the head of the case was even more difficult to find, this is considered an unexpected gain of Dou Yao Fu, and it was rare to find the head of the house test without fighting Yao Fu, which he did not expect at all at the beginning - the gongs, drums, cymbals and cymbals were boiling again, blowing and blowing upstairs, Qin Minping was overjoyed: "Virtuous brother, You are the head of the trial case in Shanyin County, and now you are the head of the trial case in Shaoxing Mansion, Shaoxing talents are like clouds, and the virtuous brother can win the championship in such a big mansion, which is really a great talent. ”

Zhang Yuanxin said: "The champion is Xizhang, I am Dongzhang, Brother Qin doesn't know that the Shanyin Zhang family also has the distinction between Dongzhang and Xizhang." He said with a smile: "Brother Cheng Jiyan." "Raise a glass and drink it all.

The owner of the restaurant came, and said hello to Zhang Yuan again and again, and said that these two tables of banquets are regarded as his treats, and he only hopes that Zhang Gongzi will patronize him more in the future, although Zhang Yuan, who has passed the government examination, is still only a child, but the head of the government examination must make up for the students, that is to say, Zhang Yuan is now equal to a student, how can the restaurant owner not stutter - this group of drummers around the banquet is endless, noisy ears, Wu Ling said loudly to Zhang Yuan: "Young master, they are going to welcome the young master back to ask for money." ”

Qin Minping laughed: "Then go back together." "With Zhang Yuan arm down the restaurant, the restaurant owner and the guy sent it together, and a group of drummers surrounded Zhang Yuan and a few people to blow and beat across the cross street, and came to the east of Zhang's house.

A large group of people have been focused in front of the bamboo fence of Zhang Yuan's house, including the Lu Yungu brothers, Zhang Dai, Zhang Cao, Zhang Zhuoru, Zhang Dingyi and other young children of the Zhang family, and even Zhang Dai's father Zhang Yaofang also came to say goodbye.

It was lively, the drummer got a reward of three dollars of silver, kowtowed, this group of drummers has reported four times at Zhang Yuan's house, and the reward is more than one or two silver, and now it is necessary to wait until next year to report the good news when the test comes.

Qin Minping drank a cup of tea at Zhang Yuan's house, and went to meet Zhang Rulin with Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yaofang, Zhang Rulin has no memory of his grandfather Zhang Tianfu's kindness to Qin Minping's ancestors, but his heart is very happy, and what is even happier is that Zhang Yuan really won the first place in the government test, and Shanyin Zhang's family added glory - after Qin Minping met Zhang Rulin, he politely resigned to the banquet, and then said goodbye and went on the road, Zhang Yuan sent Qin Minping and his party of seven people out of the Changxi Gate in the southwest of the county, Qin Minping said: "The virtuous brother doesn't have to send it anymore, this time out of Sichuan was originally full of grief and indignation, and now he can return happily." , all thanks to the virtuous brother, the foolish brother is clumsy, the foolish brother will not say if he is grateful, and he does not dare to say anything to repay, I hope that you and my brother will still see each other. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Come and say that Fang Chang will definitely meet each other." "In the future, against Nurhachi, where can I lack the brave stone pillar white pole soldiers.

Outside the Changxi Gate, Qin Minping led the six native soldiers to stride away, Zhang Yuan and Wuling, Mu Jingyan returned to Dongzhang, and walked to the Bashi Bridge, Zhang Yuan remembered something and said to Wuling: "Xiao Wu, you go to Huiji now to report the good news to Miss Shang, there will be a reward." Wu Ling Xingchong rushed to the boat.

Zhang Yuan returned to the house, but saw that Lu Yungu and Lu Yunpeng brothers were still sitting in the hall, Zhang Yuan knew that Lu Yungu was going to ask about Yicang, and the deed and silver from the last time were still kept in Lu Yungu, Zhang Yuan said that Zhang Rulin, the ancestor of the former clan, had promised to help, and Yicang was named Yang and Yicang, and after he made it clear that Hou County ordered him to choose a site to build a warehouse, Lu Yungu said happily: "This is a great act of kindness, and the virtuous brother of Jie Zi will be blessed to promote this matter." ”

After the Lu Yungu brothers left, Fan Zhen, Zhan Shiyuan, Wu Ting and other five West Zhang Qingke came together, these five people have read to Zhang Yuan, Fan Zhen said that there is a restaurant next to the Guanwang Temple with exquisite wine and food, and he wants to invite Zhang Yuan to the restaurant for a drink of two glasses, to celebrate Zhang Yuan's first place in the government test, Zhang Yuan can't refuse, so he went to the inner courtyard to inform his mother, the mother Lu Shi is very happy today, her son is a child, and he is the head of the case, he should celebrate with friends and friends, so he told his son not to be greedy for a cup, come back early - Wuling has not yet returned from Huiji, Mu Jingyan and the craftsman who built the house in the back garden went to buy wood, Zhang Yuan asked Mu Zhenzhen to go with him, just went out, Zhang Cao came with the Jian servant Nengzhu and the little maid Fu'er, Zhang Cao smiled and said: "I know that Lao Fan and they are going to invite Jie Zi to eat flower wine, haha, how can this be less than my Zhang Yanke." ”

Fan Zhen, Wu Ting and others smiled and said, "Young Master Yanke, go together, go together." ”

At dusk, the group traveled south for about a mile, came to the restaurant called "Baihualou" by the Guanwang Temple, went up to the elegant room on the second floor facing the street, and sat around the mahogany round table. ”

Sister Hua is a girl, Zhang Yuan said: "Third brother, what is Sister Hua, just drink." ”

Zhang Cao asked Fan Zhen and the others: "Which of you is going to have a banquet for Zhang Jiezi today?" ”

Fan Zhen said: "I'll wait for the five of us to invite Master Jiezi." ”

Zhang Cao pouted and said: "It's so troublesome, and five people have to make up money to invite, wait for you to settle the accounts for fear of quarreling, I invited this wine, Sister Hua, I will call, seven people call seven Sister Hua to accompany you, hehe, you just wait for fun." ”

Fan Zhen and the others knew that Zhang Cao was bold, and they didn't want them to pay for it and have to eat flower wine, so what else did they have to say, they all smiled happily, Zhang Yuan smiled, and he didn't make a sound, how to sweep everyone's interest, turned his head and glanced at Mu Zhenzhen behind him, and asked, "Zhenzhen, why don't you go back first?" ”

Mu Zhenzhen's face was a little red, she grew up in Sandai Street, she naturally knew what it meant to be called Sister Hua, and the young master was going to be called Sister Hua, which made her very embarrassed, but she still shook her head, how could she leave the young master here alone, and escort the young master home later-Zhang Cao noticed Mu Zhenzhen at this time, and saw that this fallen girl's dress was shabby, so he said: "Jie Zi, you are really stingy, the maid at home is dressed so shabby, and it is patched, but you yourself are well-dressed, which is too unusual." ”

Mu Zhenzhen was really busy: "My young master made new clothes for the maid, but the maid was reluctant to wear them." "I said that I was in a hurry to go out today, and Mu Zhenzhen didn't have time to change it.

Zhang Cao obviously didn't appreciate the alternative beauty of the ragged old skirt, and said: "Don't be reluctant to wear it, Zhang Jiezi now has silver, didn't so many people send land and silver last time." ”

While talking, the wine and food were put on the table, and the seven flowers and branches, the warbler and the Yanyan's female fish rushed in, Zhang Cao was well-informed, and when he heard the accent, he frowned and said: "Why are they all local private people, are there any Yangzhou sisters and Suzhou sisters?" "The private house, also known as the Tuji, is different from the official record of the Lehu, is not subordinate to the government, does not pay fat and powder money, and is a prostitute privately.

The bartender recognized that this was the famous Zhang Sangongzi, and this bartender was also a good talker, and said: "Yanke Gongzi, where will our Shaoxing girls lose to the girls of Yangzhou and Suzhou, and what Linqing sisters, Yangzhou sisters, Suzhou sisters, and what Zhili Jingbang sisters are, in fact, they are not as interesting as our Shaoxing sisters-"

A sharp-toothed female interface said: "Brother bartender's words are true, especially those sisters of the Beijing Gang in Nanzhili, disguised as Qiao painting, dressed up as a high and tall person, a little human, and was respected by a group of scholars like the queen mother, praised as Guanyin, and able to sing a few words, I thought it was a phoenix and a sound, and praised as a name, but in fact, it was not as good as being famous when we met, and it was just a false identity." ”

Zhang Cao, Zhang Yuan and others laughed when she said this, Zhang Cao looked at this girl and said, "You girl is a little insightful, what is your name?" ”

The girl was a little beautiful, and she was blessed and said: "The slave family is named Wulingchun." ”

The bartender introduced: "Wulingchun is the Oiran in the area of Guanwang Temple, and he can drink good songs, and he can guess the wine order-"

Zhang Yuan and Zhang Cao looked at each other, Zhang Cao laughed and asked Zhang Yuan: "What about Xiao Wu, why didn't he follow?" ”

Zhang Yuan smiled: "I sent him to have something." ”

Zhang Cao said to the female Wu Lingchun: "Great, you are the Oiran, this is my brother Zhang Jiezi, today it is said that the head of the government test case has just been released, the head of the Oiran is the head of the case, Wu Lingchun, you are sitting next to him, and today you want to sing and drink to the fullest." ”

When Wu Lingchun heard Zhang Cao say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Zhang Yuan with affection, and Yingying said: "It turns out that this is the famous Zhang Gongzi, Zhang Gongzi who defeated Yao Heixin, and the head of the county test and the government test. ”

Zhang Cao smiled and said: "Do you see that my brother is tall and handsome, and you want to recommend yourself for a pillow?" ”

Wu Lingchun's eyes flowed, and he glanced at Zhang Yuan and said: "How can the cheap concubine and vulgar powder get into the eyes of Zhang's case." The eyes were quite hot, obviously wanting to climb to the head of this freshly baked government test.

Zhang Yuanxin said: "You are a private man in Guanwangmiao who also wants to pick on me, am I such a casual person." He said lightly: "Sit down, what good songs and rap to listen to." ”

Wu Lingchun saw that Zhang Yuan was lukewarm, knowing that he really couldn't get into his eyes, and he was not discouraged or resentful, so he first toasted everyone present with a glass of wine with the other six notes, and then played the pipa alone, and Wuling Chun began to sing:

"There is a fate where there is a law in appearance and appearance, where there is a fate where there is a relationship between before and after, and where there is a fate where there is a fate where there is money and money. There is a fate for a thousand miles, but there is no fate for the other side. Use all your scheming, but also fate to coincide. ”

Zhang Cao thought that the lyrics of this song were not very windy, so he asked Wu Lingchun to sing a more wave-scratching Wu song, Wu Lingchun smiled and said: "The slave family is worried that the young man in Zhang's case is thin-skinned, and he will annoy the slave family later." ”

Zhang Cao said: "No, no, my brother is a bit of a fake Taoist, pretending to be a young man, but he actually loves to listen to silver lyrics and songs, and he recalls "Golden Vase Plum" backwards, well, you can sing." ”

Zhang Yuan was speechless.
