Chapter 12: The Weeping Willows Dry Up the Sun and the Wind (2)
That Ji Guang went to Xue Li's side and said, "Gong Cao is invited!" ”
Xue Li hurriedly returned the salute, and suddenly remembered: "Could it be a disciple of Huayuanhua in Qian County?" ”
The man smiled and said, "Xue Jun has a good memory, and he can remember it with just one side!" In Xia Wupu, Hua Cheng is the family teacher. ”
Wu Pu, the word Ji Guang, Guangling people. Hua Tuo, the teacher and doctor, often walks around Huaisi and lives in Pengcheng. One night last year, when Mrs. Zuo Shang, the prime minister, was stung by a scorpion when she went to the toilet, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't stop screaming. Hearing that Hua Tuo was in the guest house, he hurriedly sent Xue Li to invite, Hua Tuo ordered someone to burn the soup and soak his hands, and the medicine was eliminated immediately. At that time, it was this Wu Pu who delivered the decoction.
Liu Ai waited for the two of them to finish their politeness, and said with a straight face: "Gentlemen, Ai has confessed first!" Today, it's actually me who is the east, but why do I borrow the name of Rong Jun? I really don't have that face, I'm afraid you won't come! ”
He said this bluntly, and everyone knew that he was cheating, but it was difficult to say anything more.
Liu Ai stretched out his hand to Xue Li to make a gesture of invitation, and introduced: "This young man who is as Xuan as the morning glow, I think as long as he is a native of the country, he must know his name if he has not met. Guys say, yes and no? Xue Jun was just twenty years old, and he was already the most important county official, which was rare in this dynasty. He is also humble and courteous, honest and honest, although he is young, he is my role model and my heartbreak! When Xue Jun's maternal uncle was in Xuzhou, Ai Zeng was taught and benefited a lot! ”
In front of a senior like Liu Ai, how dare Xue Li be arrogant, and said in a panic: "Liu Jun praised it falsely, how dare you be polite!" The people who are at the end of the etiquette are only sparse and thin, and they have little knowledge, and all the gentlemen have learned ten times more than the etiquette, and the etiquette is only stealing from their positions! ”
Liu Aidaxiao said: "Xue Jun is too humble! All of you are Pengcheng talents, and I invite you to come today, one is to have good wine to drink, and the other is to talk about life. There aren't many good days like this for me, how fast! ”
Before his words fell, Zhang Zhao said indifferently: "Brother Liu's words are wrong! How can it be said that all of you here are Pengcheng talents? Are Xue Jun and Wu Jun from Pengcheng? Liu Junshan's reputation for telling lies and lies seems to be true! Besides, when you mention Xue Jun's uncle, and add his humble words, don't you say that Xue Jun's position as a meritorious Cao is not right? ”
As soon as these words came out, Xue Li's face turned red. Zhang Zhao's words are too straightforward, the implication is that you Xue Li is a talent? If you can do good work, don't you just have a good uncle? My uncle is what a certain dynasty calls my father-in-law, and there is no father-in-law in this dynasty.
The atmosphere was very awkward for a while!
Liu Ai was annoyed in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for being cheap, why did he invite Zhang Zibu to be a thorn! Although he didn't care about being ridiculed, he didn't expect Zhang Zhao to ridicule Xue Li, and he couldn't get off the stage!
The son-in-law laughed coquettishly: "Hehe...... Zibu, Zibu! Your mouth is a little poisonous! Brother, what's wrong with you? Speechless, right? ”
Liu Ai pursed his mouth and scolded with a smile: "Xue Jun has benefited Pengcheng for several years, everyone has seen him, I have long regarded him as a Pengcheng person!" Besides, Xue Jun is really talented, and he is not bad for 2,000 stones! ”
Without waiting for others to interject, he hurriedly said, "Zibu! It's not that I'm talking about you, who wants to marry you, every day in front of you, a big face like a creditor, and that donkey eyeballs, you can be regarded as eight lifetimes of mold! In fact, what are you proud of? It's just a good word to deceive people, a serious face to bluff people, that's all! At this point, I'm going to tell you a joke. haha! hahaha......"
Probably thought it was funny, Liu Ai himself raised his head first and hahadaxiao. The son-in-law and the others urged: "Speak quickly! Say it! What is the sale? ”
Liu Aicai stroked the few beards under his chin, and said proudly: "When I studied with Zibu back then, he was just the opposite of now, people actually love to laugh, it is common for him to laugh alone, and his handwriting is also very poor, which is not ordinarily bad!" After reading his words, the same door said, 'I've seen a bad one, but I've never seen such a bad one!' Zibu was not convinced, took out the wooden tablet and rotten paper that he had used to learn calligraphy, and argued: "How about this?" When everyone saw it, it was even worse, and since then it has been nicknamed 'no worst'! When Mr. Bai Hou, the business teacher, heard about this, he scolded: "Words are like human faces, if you can't write well, you will be slapped!" Mr. Bai Hou is worthy of being a university scholar, and after a few years, Zibuzi has really changed for the better, but his face has also been beaten so that he can't laugh! hahaha......"
Everyone also uproared, and the son-in-law said with disdain on his face: "There are such people in the world, ridiculing each other and demolishing the stage, it's really ridiculous!" ”
"Let Renda see a smile!" Unconsciously, Liu Ai had already called Xue Li Renda, and he said in a slightly ridiculous tone: "Renda still doesn't know the origin of this girl, right?" ”
Xue Li looked at it in a blink of an eye, and it happened that the son-in-law was smiling like a flower, and he also looked at him. The two suddenly looked at each other, Xue Li hurriedly turned his head, and saw Liu Ai smiling at him and said, "My sister Liu Yu, the word Rongjun." Listen to my sister, you seem to have met? ”
Sister-in-law is the little maid. Xue Li arched his hand again and again: "Li has eyes like blindness, ashamed!" Ashamed! ”
“haha! I blame me for this, I want to ask you to talk about it, but I am afraid that it will be abrupt, so I hesitate again and again. Ah Mei heard that you were in a hurry, Shang Yi was a hero, so she rushed to get ahead! ”
Everyone said in their hearts, you Liu Ai is abrupt, isn't Liu Yu more abrupt? Xue Li also thought about it, it seems that it is not as expected by the woman, what Liu Ai means by this, I am afraid that it will pave the way for the following.
Zhang Zhao couldn't sit still on the side: "Shuyan, isn't there good wine?" If you don't take it out, I'm leaving! ”
Liu Ai glanced at him, waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to put wine and food on the table, and said angrily: "Look at this monkey's anxious appearance, if you don't see it with your own eyes, who can believe that he is the world-famous Zhang Zibu?" ”
Liu Fei smiled at her brother and said: "Zibu's true temperament and true gentleman, how can he compare with the world's laymen?" ”
As he spoke, the dishes were ready. At that time, the people adopted a separate meal system, that is, each person at the banquet sat at a single table, and unless special attention was given, they all had the same meal. The custom of Pengchengguo is to serve dishes on the left side of the table first, then on the right side of the soup, and zuihou on top.
The dishes are quite rich, there are four kinds of green vegetables such as lotus root, bamboo shoots, sunflower and elm, one serving of fresh tofu, one serving of fish tart, one dish of deer roast, and one fat goose, a plate of onion, ginger and garlic seasoning, and a small plate of dogwood spices.
Liu Ai apologized again: "Helpless! The royal palace has banned music this year, so there is no singing and dancing, and I hope that you will understand. ”
Xue Li, Yan Jian and others all said: "Drinking, light, and what you want, why use dance and music?" ”
Everyone first used some dishes, and then came up with ear cups, wine glasses, spoons, jugs, and other drinking utensils.
