Hearing that Xue Ning'er wanted to hear herself play the guitar, Zhao Yan smiled mysteriously: "Not now, but if Xue Xing wants to hear it, I will live in my house until the New Year, and when it comes to Chinese New Year's Eve, I will use this guitar to play a song for everyone, but this matter Xue Xing, don't tell the second sister first, I will give them a surprise then!" ”

In fact, Zhao Yan is not just to surprise Princess Bao'an, but he has not played the guitar for too long, and his fingering has long been rusty, even if he wants to play at this time, I am afraid that it will only make jokes, so I still take the time to practice in the past few days, so that I will not make a fool of myself.

Xue Ning'er heard that Zhao Yan did not agree to her request, but instead of being angry, she showed a happy expression, because she heard a meaning from Zhao Yan's words, that is, Zhao Yan hoped that she could celebrate the New Year with him.

Speaking of which, Xue Ning'er stayed in the other courtyard mainly to teach Zhao Yingning and them to practice yoga, but now that Zhao Yingning is leaving, Cao Ying and they have also learned yoga, so Xue Ning'er is also thinking about what to do, from the bottom of her heart, she hopes to stay here in Zhao Yan for a few more days, because here she doesn't have to play the piano and sing for the guests with a smile, and she doesn't have to look at her mother's face to live, this feeling of freedom makes her very fascinated, especially when she gets along with Zhao Yan, it always makes her have a sense of novelty, It's just that now she has no reason to stay here, if she doesn't leave, it may cause disgust from others, but Zhao Yan's words today made her feel relieved, and at the same time, she felt a little sweet in her heart.

Zhao Yan excitedly took the guitar back to the study, before he could practice his fingering. Zhao Zongsheng, who said yesterday that he was going to come today, finally came, and Zhao Yingning was also ready to leave, but Zhao Yan had to go out to see him off, and Cao Ying and the others also personally sent Zhao Yingning out of the door, and they all shed tears of reluctance.

In the next few days, Zhao Yan would carry his guitar every day to find a yard where no one was around, and let the little bean sprouts help him guard outside, so as not to be exposed by Cao Ying and them, after all, the New Year is coming soon, and the Chinese New Year's Eve still has to keep the New Year. Then everyone will gather together for the night. Zhao Yan decided to play and sing by herself that day, so that Cao Ying and the others could open their eyes. As for whether they will be able to enjoy the songs of later generations? This is not in Zhao Yan's consideration at all, anyway, they are all a family, as long as they are lively enough.

But what Zhao Yan never expected was that. Just when he was working the guitar. Get ready for a lively and joyous New Year. But he didn't expect that there would be a bunch of troubles coming to the door, and he couldn't get rid of these troubles if he wanted to.

On this day, Zhao Yan had just had breakfast and was about to secretly practice the guitar. But I didn't expect Lao Fu to suddenly come to report, saying that there was a guest visiting, and this guest had to be received by Zhao Yan in person, because the other party was Cao Ying's father, Cao Lu. Zhao Yan was also very strange when he heard this news, it is said that the New Year is almost now, even if he wants to pay New Year's greetings in advance, he and Cao Ying will go to Cao's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, could it be that the other party is here to see Cao Tong?

With doubts in their hearts, Zhao Yan and Cao Ying came to the front hall together, but as soon as they entered the hall, they immediately frightened Zhao Yan and blurted out: "Where did you get so many meatballs?" ”

As soon as Zhao Yan's words fell, he was immediately twisted by Cao Ying beside him, reminding him to pay attention to proportion. In fact, Zhao Yan can't be blamed for this, I saw more than a dozen people standing in the hall at once, and what was even more surprising was that everyone was a big fat man, and they suddenly looked like meatballs.

Compared with Zhao Yan's surprise, Cao Ying seemed extremely enthusiastic, greeting those meatballs while walking, a "third brother" here, a seventh brother over there, anyway, it sounds like Cao Ying's cousins, and they are not very old, most of them are about teenagers, and even a few may not be ten years old, but the round body is too much like meatballs.

finally waited until Zhao Yan and Cao Ying came to the front through Roshan, and finally saw Cao Ying sitting there, only to see Cao Ying immediately stepped forward and asked: "Daddy, why are you free today, and you also brought your cousins and them, could it be that something can't happen?" ”

In fact, with Cao Ying's intelligence, she had already vaguely guessed something, and even Zhao Yan also guessed the purpose of her father-in-law's coming, but neither of them was willing to take over this trouble, so Cao Ying deliberately asked this question, hoping that her father could be considerate of herself and take back the following words.

However, to Cao Ying and Zhao Yan's disappointment, I saw Cao Lu sigh and said: "Don't pretend to be confused, the county lord of the Runan County Wang's family has lived with you for a few months, and now he has lost weight, and he has been taken around by the Runan County King to show off these days, many people are rushing to marry the Runan County Palace, and the daughter of our Cao family is not too fat, but there are too many of these unsuccessful things, one by one they know that they are delicious and lazy, and they can't take care of their old sons and mothers at home, and they will only lose the face of our Cao family outside!" ”

When Cao Lu said at the end, he pointed to the big and small meatballs in the living room is a scolding, and as a result, these people also lowered their heads in shame one by one, don't think that fat people were not discriminated against in ancient times, and a man who is fat can be said to be rich, but fat people like them are about to become a ball, so it is called "obese", it looks a little stupid, and it is easy to be discriminated against when getting along with others.

In addition, the ancient people had higher requirements for their personal image, for example, the Tang Dynasty had certain requirements for the appearance of officials. Although the Song Dynasty relaxed a lot of conditions for the appearance of officials, it was not completely without requirements, like the appearance of the Cao family, there are still some possibilities to be civil officials, but the Cao family is a general, with their physique, if they go to be military attachés, I am afraid it will only cause people to laugh.

Hearing that Zhao Zongsheng took Zhao Yingning to show off outside every day, Zhao Yan and Cao Ying couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly. Speaking of which, Zhao Zongsheng was not less angry before because of his daughter's obesity, but now that Zhao Yingning has lost weight, he naturally wants to show off, which is also human nature, but in this way, it has brought Zhao Yan and them a lot of trouble, such as these people brought by Cao Lu in front of them, how could they say no?

"Father-in-law, losing weight is not an easy task, Cousin Yingning has lived here for a few months, but she has suffered a lot in order to lose weight, these brothers of the Cao family don't know if they can stand it?" Zhao Yan showed a wry smile again at this time, he didn't expect that just after sending away a Zhao Yingning, there would be so many fat people again, could it be that he had to force him to open the world's first weight loss club in Da Song?

"Smack!" As soon as Zhao Yan's words fell, Cao Lu slapped a stack of paperwork on the table, then raised his head and said to Zhao Yan, "Virtuous son-in-law don't worry, these sons and nephews of the family have already signed the life and death certificate before they came, and there are not only their signatures on it, but also the signatures of their parents, so you can use any tricks, even if it is a dead person, you don't have to take half of the responsibility!" ”

I rub! Zhao Yan stared at the stack of life and death on the table with wide eyes, he didn't expect the Cao family to do such a desperate thing in order to make himself agree, but he also knew that the life and death situation was just to block his excuse for refusal, and he didn't really want to let these Cao family children in his living room die.

"Father, if the man's family is fatter, he will be fatter, anyway, our Cao family doesn't have to worry about marrying a wife and having children, why do you have to ask my cousin to suffer from weight loss?" Zhao Yan's mouth was blocked, so Cao Ying had to speak, it was not that she didn't want to help her cousins lose weight, but she thought it was not necessary, after all, men and women are different, even if they are fatter, as long as they have a good family background, they don't have to worry about not being able to marry a wife, which is completely different from Zhao Yingning.

However, Cao Lu heard his daughter's words and sighed and said: "Some time ago, the imperial court was going to Tuntian in the south, and mobilized a lot of box soldiers, just needed a large number of generals, speaking of which, these generals are actually only responsible for managing those box soldiers, and they don't need to go to the battlefield at all, but they are also very suitable for letting the children and nephews in the family mix their backgrounds, so each general reports the young people at home to the court, and our Cao family is no exception, but I gathered my children and nephews together, and nearly half of them are obese, even if such people are reported to the court, I'm afraid it will only attract shame, so in the end, less than twenty people were reported in the family, nearly half less than the Gao family, how do you say that your father and your uncle are not annoyed? ”

Cao Ying heard her father's words, but she smiled secretly in her heart, their Cao family has a large population, and promising young people naturally served in the army early, and those who are still staying at home now are naturally those who have no interest, just eat, drink and have fun every day, so they are naturally easy to gain weight, and they are usually nothing, but this time they suffered a big loss because of the seizure of the position in the southern Tuntian, which made their father and uncle sprinkle their anger on these obese cousins.

It seems that Zhao Shu has begun to transfer personnel for the cultivation of corn and sweet potatoes, and the generals of Tuntian are all people who use generals, although these people have no talent, but they have an advantage, that is, they are loyal enough, as for the management and planning of Tuntian, there are naturally other officials to be responsible.

Seeing that Cao Lu's attitude was so resolute, Zhao Yan and Cao Ying really couldn't refuse, and finally had to reluctantly agree to keep these cousins of the Cao family. But what Zhao Yan never expected was that he opened this opening for the Cao family today, and it would be difficult to block it in the future.

In the next few days, the nobles of Tokyo City came to visit the courtyard one after another, with only one purpose, that is, to send the obese young people at home to the other courtyard, and ask Zhao Yan to help them lose weight, and most of these people are related to each other, making it impossible for Zhao Yan and Cao Ying to refuse, and soon Zhao Yan's front yard of the courtyard became a fat club, Zhao Yan wanted to cry without tears, if he knew this, he should not have agreed to leave Zhao Yingning behind.
