Volume 3 Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains 108 Returning with Joy

Qiu Yizhi saw these dishes, and they were served down without touching the chopsticks, and felt a little pity in his heart, so he said: "Jiugong, I haven't opened a restaurant for a day, and I don't understand the rules." Could it be that all these vegetables were thrown away and fed to the pigs? ”

Jiugong replied with a smile: "Childe is scolding." The people who open the restaurant are not stupid pigs, where are they willing to throw away such good dishes? If you eat it yourself, if you can't eat it, you will make swill to feed the pigs! ”

"Hahaha! I see, I see! Qiu Yizhi laughed loudly, "There is a way that there is knowledge everywhere, even if you open a small restaurant, you can have such a special and such a reason, and the younger generation has a long insight today." ”

He Jiugong said: "Childe is joking with the old decay again." Others don't know, don't I He Jiugong know? He lowered his voice, "The chaos of the king of Lingnan is about to be leveled, and the biggest credit for this is none other than the prince, it depends on how the emperor rewards him, maybe ......."

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly interrupted: "Don't, don't, don't, today we only talk about private affairs, regardless of state affairs, everyone can drink happily!" ”

He Jiugong is an old Jianghu and a very familiar person, hearing Qiu Yizhi say this, he quickly changed his conversation, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Gongzi to invite Li Shao's boat owner over...... Speaking of which, he is equal to my Zhou Daguan, how can I be on an equal footing with him? ”

Qiu Yizhi immediately took over the conversation and said, "This is difficult, or this meal is my first convocation, and Jiugong is responsible for meeting the money?" ”

He Jiugong also joked: "That's not possible, I finally invited so many people over, this favor was given to the son, isn't it too cheap?" ”

Qiu Yizhi and He Jiugong said this in one word, and I said this in one word, while Liu Qing and Zhao Fuyi bowed their heads and drank tea, occasionally saying a sentence or two.

A few people talked for a while, but they heard a hearty laugh from downstairs: "Lord Qiu, this is a rare thing, could it be that the sun is coming out in the west, and Taishang Laojun is also going to recite 'Amitabha'?" ”

Qiu Yizhi heard that it was Lin Shuhan's voice, and hurriedly invited him in, saying, "I thought Mr. Lin was not easy to invite, but I didn't expect to come over so early." Did Cho Sung-hyo also arrive? ”

Uncle Lin was arrogant, raised his eyes and glanced at everyone present, only nodded as a greeting, picked a chair next to Qiu Yizhi and sat down, and said: "Lord Qiu's treat, it is a prosperous era in the country, Lin Mou came to participate in the grand event, how can he be behind?" Zhao Chengxiao is also coming, but his subordinates are now participating in the defense of the 'Qingya Temple', and he has to go to the 'Qingya Temple' to take a look, and he will arrive soon. ”

Qiu Yizhi was just about to answer, but he heard someone downstairs shouting: "Is my brother here?" ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he immediately got up, opened a window, and followed the sound to look downstairs, but saw a young man, a freshly dressed angry horse, who was shouting upstairs with his head upstairs - it was Li Shengjie himself.

Everyone here, except for Lin Shuhan, only heard of Li Shengjie's name, but did not see his face, only knew that there was a young shipowner who was a person who was very important to the emperor today, but I didn't know how he described his appearance, and they all wanted to poke their heads out to see Li Shengjie's demeanor - but they were all calm people and self-respecting identity, so they did not lose their temper.

Qiu Yizhi didn't have such a taboo, and beckoned and said, "It's here, come up, brother Xian." ”

After a while, Li Shengjie walked in.

He grew up in Fusang, Dongying, and was the pearl of the old ship owner Li Zhi, and he didn't know any humble and polite etiquette in the Central Plains, so he only waved to everyone, and then found a seat for himself.

Everyone was a little strange when they saw him with such a big appearance, but they didn't ask on the spot for the sake of Qiu Yizhi's face.

After a while, Zhao Chengxiao also rushed over.

Qiu Yizhi saw that he was late, and deliberately joked: "Brother Zhao is now the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and he is very busy with military affairs. ”

Zhao Chengxiao had some enmity with Qiu Yizhi's uncle Zhao Fuyi, and he had greeted everyone and missed this Zhao Fuyi, so he replied to Qiu Yizhi: "My lord's words are a little mean." I hurried to get there, and although I didn't dare to say fast, I wasn't the last. ”

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a person rise up from under the "garden outside the building", half-twisted his waist in the air, and actually flew in sideways through the open window - such a vigorous and flexible body is rare in the world, and everyone applauded.

Qiu Yizhi looked fixedly, but it was his righteous brother Chi Lianghong. This lieutenant Chi Lianghong is known as the first in the world in martial arts, and it is not surprising that he has such light skills.

So Qiu Yizhi flattered: "Who am I talking about when Brother Zhao is talking about, it turns out to be the eldest brother!" Why don't you go through the door and come in through the window? Now that the security in Jinling City is tight, don't be caught by the soldiers patrolling the city as a snitch! ”

Yu Chi Lianghong tidied up the bow of the silk robe, and said: "I have already said hello to both black and white, and told them to stop these days, now there are no Jiangyang thieves and high-rollers in Jinling, even the beggars are gone, where are there any snitches to steal?" Besides, even if I am seen by the patrolmen, if I want to leave, can they stop me? ”

He said this arrogantly, which made Qiu Yizhi also moved: "Okay! The eldest brother is really courageous! ”

Wei Chi Lianghong said with a smile: "I am ashamed that Brother Meng said that I am 'courageous'." But Brother Xian himself seems to be a little stingy. You see, after inviting so many people to dinner, why did you miss me? ”

How could Qiu Yizhi leak Yu Chi Lianghong, a righteous brother who had experienced life and death with him? He just thinks that now Wei Chi Lianghong is the emperor's personal guard, if he is invited out, in case something happens to happen to the emperor, he can't afford it; Even if nothing happens, the charge of "a foreign minister making friends with a close servant without permission" may not sound good.

Qiu Yizhi had this calculation in his heart, and it was not easy to say it in front of everyone, so he only said: "You see that Brother Zhao is like this now, he is busy on all fours, and the number one guard in the world like the eldest brother, how dare I invite it at will?" ”

Yu Chi Lianghong said with a smile: "Brother stutters smartly, foolish brother can't say anything about you." However, the foolish brother is very narrow-minded, and he only thinks that my brother thinks that my martial artist eats too much, so he refuses to invite. Come, the virtuous brother will be punished with three glasses of wine first! ”

Qiu Yi patted his chest: "What can three glasses of water and wine be tight?" But the elder brother was the last to arriveβ€”and for whatever reasonβ€”the latecomer's three cups of fine wine won't get away with you. ”

Wei Chi Lianghong replied: "It's easy to say! Bring the wine! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he returned to the shopkeeper who was waiting outside the door, and led the people to bring the wine and food to the table.

Qiu Yizhi saw that they were waiting outside the door, afraid that everyone would be heard, so he said, "Are all the food and wine served here?" After you get up, go downstairs, if there's anything, I'll naturally call you. ”

The shopkeeper timidly glanced at Qiu Yizhi, then peeked at He Jiugong, and saw that he was also waving to him, so he retreated and covered the door again.

Qiu Yizhi glimpsed through the crack in the door that there were no guests on the entire second floor, so he was relieved, personally took the cup and wine jug, and poured two glasses of wine himself, and drank three glasses in a row with Wei Chi Lianghong and others.

The amount of Qiu Yi's wine was already mediocre, and after drinking three glasses, his face was flushed, and he poured the wine for everyone present, and waved it at everyone, and said: "Everyone, some of you know each other, some don't know each other, some are intimate, and some have hatred, but everyone can gather together today, all of them are looking at my Qiu Yizhi's face." In fact, how can I have any face? Do it first for respect! With that, he tilted his head and poured a glass of wine into his stomach.

When everyone saw this, they also drank it all.

Let everyone toast and punish each other, the table full of dishes has not yet been moved, everyone present is already three glasses and two stomachs, and several of them are slightly drunk.

Everyone drank freely from noon to unitary hour, and only then did they disperse when they were drunk.

Although Li Shengjie's amount of wine here is not the shallower, he is the most inexperienced, and everyone toasts one by one "young boat owner", he does not refuse to come, but when he moves, he is already drunk and falls asleep on the ground. After sleeping for an hour, Li Shengjie woke up, but at this time, most of the alcohol had dissipated, and he was the most sober one in it.

When he saw that everyone was leaving, he said, "Don't, I didn't drink much, why did they all disperse?" ”

Everyone laughed loudly, half flattering, half joking: "The young shipowner still has a deep amount of wine, I will drink it later, I am afraid that I will die, or go home separately, and talk about it another day." ”

Qiu Yizhi heard this, and also wanted to make a joke, but when he heard the word "go home", he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly walked to Li Shengjie's side, and said in his ear: "Brother Xian, I am drunk today, and I can't discuss any major matters, you have to come to Mr. Lin's 'Bansong Village' tomorrow, I have something to tell you." ”

Li Shengjie was a little suspicious when he heard this, and asked, "Is there any major event that can't be said today?" ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled a little drunkenly: "Don't ask today, you'll know tomorrow." After that, he put one hand on Zhao Chengxiao's shoulder, staggered to the door, and didn't know how to get back to "Bansongzhuang".

Qiu Yizhi's wine was very enjoyable, so it was different from the stuffy wine that poured sorrow, drunk slowly, drunk shallowly, woke up early, and after a good night's sleep, he woke up early the next morning, only feeling refreshed and refreshed, so unhappy.

After a little grooming, Qiu Yizhi pushed the door out, but saw several female relatives outside the door who didn't know what to do.

Wu Ruofei, who was among the female dependents, saw Qiu Yizhi come out, immediately put down the work in his hand, walked up to him, and asked, "What kind of wine did the son drink yesterday?" After my Mr. Lin came back, he lay down and still hasn't gotten up. Mr. is a scholar, unlike Zhao Chengxiao and Wei Chi Lianghong, who practice martial arts, when he goes out to drink, why doesn't Gongzi cover up for him? ”

Qiu Yizhi said with a smile: "When others pour him, of course they have to block the wine for him." But yesterday was different, he was begging for a drink, so how could I stop it? But Miss Wu don't worry, yesterday after the third round of drinking, Mr. Lin was so excited that he wrote a beautiful article on the spot, and he is still in the 'garden building'. Miss Wu hurriedly sent someone over there to get it, this is the world's swan song, and she can't cheapen the people in the restaurant. ”

Qiu Yizhi was talking endlessly, but he saw He'er in the distance carrying a broom and sweeping the fallen leaves in a small pavilion, so he said to Wu Ruofei: "Okay, Miss Wu speaks, I know it in my heart." By the way, it's not convenient for me here, can I bother Miss Wu and invite He'er to come over and talk? ”

Wu Ruofei said angrily: "Childe is really welcome, my anger has not subsided, and he will support me to do something." With that, as soon as she turned around, she whispered a few words to He'er's side, and then pulled her over.
