Zhang Jizhi entered the bedroom after breakfast, a azure robe was neatly stacked on the simple wooden bed, which was carefully washed by his mother yesterday, and other clothes could be beaten with a mallet, and his mother carefully rubbed it out with her hands, in her opinion, this set of clothes was the same as her son, and she was proud.

Seeing that her son was put on a robe, Zhang Zhizhi's mother squatted down and pulled it hard, her son was going to the Hou Mansion today as a guest to greet Mr. New Year, and he needed to dress neatly.

Looking at the heroic son, the old woman didn't dare to think that she also had such a beautiful day, the son followed those famous Confucian scholars in the academy to study, many rich and noble families in Chang'an City did not have this qualification, but their own son, the son of a courtesan, can actually do it, and he can support his family while going to school, which makes many rich businessmen in Nancheng District who used to look down on their sons envious, and the family where the son used to work is even more so. This title used to be used only by eunuchs.

Going to Hou Ye's house as a guest, it is an honor, that is, the gift is lighter, and he weaves a piece of linen, but this linen cloth is woven by himself, it is very densely woven, and the thread is also less, anyone will say that it is a good cloth, but I don't know if Hou Ye's family can take a fancy to it, I used to be a courtesan when I went to a rich and noble house, which one was not wearing silk and satin.

"Son, why don't you bring another snack?" The old woman said to her son worriedly.

Zhang Zhizhi smiled, took his mother's rough hand and said, "Mother, you don't know, the dim sum made by the chef of Mr. is Chang'an, no, the best dim sum in the whole Tang Dynasty, and the student goes to see Mr. with a supplif." This is etiquette, not to show off the magnanimity, and the gentleman is also the most important, if the child takes all the money in the family to buy gifts, he will be looked down upon by the gentleman. The linen you weave is very good, Mr. will like it, and when the child comes back to bring you Yunfu snacks, it is really delicious. “

The old woman smiled and patted her son and said, "How can I go to my husband's house to pay New Year's greetings and even eat and take it, I am not ashamed." “

Zhang Zhizhi looked at the sky, picked up the sackcloth and said as he walked: "This is taught by the seniors, don't be polite when you go to Mr.'s house, I hope they don't fool me again this time." “

As soon as I went out, the carriage stopped at the door of the house. A fat man poked his head out and shouted: "Brother Zhizhi, hurry up, you won't be able to return to Chang'an if it's too late." “

Zhang Zhizhi responded loudly and ran out of the house, and his mother also chased him out, and was a little stunned when he saw this luxurious carriage, the fat man had already jumped down to greet the old woman, and the old woman who was at a loss hurriedly helped the fat man up, but her eyes looked at her son.

"Mother. This is the same classmate I often talk to you about. The child and he have already agreed to go to Yushan together, you go back, the child will go. “

After speaking, he and Lei Tong got into the carriage together, and the groom shouted, and the extravagant carriage rushed out, and soon went out of the gate and turned to Suzaku Street.

The lady of the Hua family, who was holding the soles of her shoes, asked the old woman in wonder: "Mrs. Zhang." It was the one who got into the carriage just now? “

"Yes, he is going to Yushan to pay New Year's greetings to Mr., and his classmates came to pick him up, and he doesn't know how delicious the food at Master Hou's house is, and the two children can't wait. You see they panicked. The old woman's face was full of pride.

It was very fast to go to Yushan with a carriage, and after more than an hour, he arrived at Yunjia Zhuangzi, and Lei Tong gave the groom a few copper plates for him to go to the street to solve his own food, and he carried two huge gift boxes and entered Yunfu with Zhang Jiyi.

The house is already very lively, many seniors have been sitting in the living room drinking tea, waiting for Mr. to come out, the housekeeper and the bookkeeper who registered the gift are waiting at the door of the wing room with a smile, seeing that Lei Tong and Zhang Zhizhi were brought over by the servants, the second housekeeper Lao Zhao stepped forward to salute and thank them for coming to pay New Year's greetings to the Hou Ye.

The gift of the same is not bad, it is a volume of ancient paintings, as long as you look at the galloping posture of the horses on the painting, it is the true handiwork of Zhan Ziqian, Lao Zhao turned out to be in the jewelry and jade business, where can you not see it, carefully roll up the scroll and put it back in the box, and said to Lei Tong: "Shaolangjun has a heart, you know your husband's temper, you will inevitably eat the head of the row if you give such a gift, or put it away quickly, don't be seen by Mr." ”

Lei Tong saw that the housekeeper was resolute, so he had to put away the scroll and hugged another gift box, the housekeeper was happy as soon as he opened it, and saw that it contained a complete set of big-headed mud dolls, which were cute and very festive, and quickly put away the gifts, and put away the gift list.

Lao Zhao took Zhang Zhizhi's linen, rubbed his hand on it for a while, picked up his thumb and said: "Good material, the cloth surface is smooth, there are almost no joints, thick, the whole cloth is soft and soft, the old grandmother has always wanted to find a good linen cloth to make intimate clothes for the two little young masters in the house, even if there is it, Shao Langjun has such a skillful hand at home, it is really rare." ”

After registering the gift list, Zhang Zhizhi went to the courtyard together, and a large circle of Brother He, Brother Yang, Brother Wen, and the like came down to visit, and it was already noon.

Lao Qian had already prepared a banquet, saying that Hou Ye was left in the palace by His Majesty, and he couldn't get out, so he beckoned everyone to drink the banquet, and you and Hou Ye are all close masters and apprentices, don't be surprised, you must eat well, drink well, and make further progress in learning this year.

Everyone knows that Mr. is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and since he was left in the palace, he will naturally not be able to come back for a while, so everyone will have a big meal in Yunfu with a happy heart.

Zhang Zhizhi thought that he was already very ungraceful when eating, but he didn't expect the same next to him to be even more ungraceful, with a pig's trotter on the plate, and he stared at the large piece of meat.

"Xiao Lei, there is no shortage of meat at your house, why are you working so hard?" Zhang Zhizhi stabbed Lei Tong embarrassedly, and Lei Tong said without raising his head: "Can I eat my family's meat?" I couldn't even catch up with the food in the academy, so I went home and asked the cook to make braised pork for me, but what did I end up with? I immediately beat the cook away at home, my father still doesn't believe that the food in the academy will be better than at home, I brought home a braised pork when I was resting, and my Lao Tzu ate it in one go, saying that this is meat, the cook at home is not wronged, you taste, this pig's trotters are authentic. “

After speaking, if no one else next to him, he inserted half a pig's trotter and put it on Zhang Zhizhi's plate, all of them were fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers, many people were acting as adults for the first time to go to other people's homes to see the ceremony, and they were a little restrained at the beginning.

Lao Qian likes to see such a scene the most, Yun Ye will feel distressed when he sees it, but Lao Qian stubbornly believes that the guests eat happily is the biggest face for the host's family, which shows that the reputation of Yunfu cuisine is not falling, holding a wine pot and constantly persuading him to drink, smiling like Maitreya Buddha.

The young man was the opponent of an old fox like Lao Qian when he was drinking, and Lao Qian walked through seven or eight tables, and behind him there were seven or eight empty wine jars, all of which were strong liquor, and after a while, some people were talking nonsense.

After eating a meal for more than an hour, seeing that it was not early, Zhang Zhizhi, who was already obviously drunk, helped Lei Tong out of Yunfu like a dead pig, and carried two bamboo baskets and a scroll of paintings in his hands.

In the bamboo basket is the Yun family's return gift, four exquisite dim sum, and a small cream cake in the middle, Zhang Zhizhi tried hard to support Lei Tong, for fear that this guy would break the bamboo basket, and he was relieved to see the same coachman come up.

It took more than an hour when he came, and when he came home, the groom drove the carriage very fast, because his young master had vomited three or four times, and he shouted at the vomit that it was a pity, and he had the urge to eat it back.

The sky darkened slightly, Zhang Zhizhi was sent to Chang'an by the groom again, and returned the picture to the Lei family in Lei Tong's house, and explained the reason why the Yun Mansion did not accept it, and the Lei master praised the high wind and bright festival of Mr. Academy, and then handed the Yun family's return gift to the Lei master, Lei looked at the five-color ceremony inside, and then looked at the drunk son, and knew that they had a very pleasant life in the Yun Mansion, this is good, this is good, it is good not to look down on the businessmen. Seeing that Zhang Jizhi was also staggering, he ordered the groom to send him back, and invited him to be a guest at home in his spare time.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, the old woman saw that her son still did not come back, and she couldn't help but start worrying that he would be teased by others at the banquet, after all, she had seen such a scene countless times when she was a courtesan, and she was so worried that as long as she heard footsteps outside, she hurriedly opened the door and looked, disappointed countless times.

A carriage stopped at the door of the house, seeing that his swaying son was helped out of the car by the groom, he hurriedly went up to help his son, and saw his son smile happily at her, although he was dizzy from the strong smell of alcohol, but he understood that his son's trip to the Hou Mansion was good, as if he had not been bullied.

Zhang Jiyi, who insisted on himself, fell on his bed, and the heavy sleepiness hit, and he was about to fall asleep, as if he remembered something and struggled to get up, brought the basket from the door, and sent it to his mother and said: "Mother, taste it, Yunfu's dim sum, you will know how delicious he is after you eat it, this is a return gift from Houfu." “

The old woman helped her son to the bed, took off his clothes, fed him some water, wiped his feet with a wet cloth towel, and then covered him with a blanket, looked at the sleeping son and was stunned for a while, then returned to the low table, opened the lid of the bamboo basket, looked at the exquisite dim sum inside, and took a long breath of sweet smell, how many years has such a good smell not smelled?

The finger dug out a small piece of cream and took it in his mouth and couldn't help but moan, is this the taste of heaven? (To be continued......)
