Chapter Thirty-Six: I'm in a hurry

If calculated according to generation, Li Yuan is Li Xiaozong's nephew. However, on the surface, the big family seems to have a strict hierarchy and a clear system, but in fact, it is also a mess inside. When the old lady of the Li family was almost eighty years old, she also took a fourteen-year-old little girl who was like a flower, and two years later, this little girl gave birth to a son. Don't say that others are the old man himself, and he doesn't believe it, so he drips blood to recognize his relatives, if the child is not his, don't say the child, it is the child, and his mother is afraid that he will sink in the river.

It's strange that after dripping blood and recognizing his relatives, this child is really his. The old man was overjoyed and set up a banquet for three days. In addition to proving that the old lady of the Li family is fierce and fierce, this incident can only prove that this family is really fucking chaotic. The old lady is Li Chao's father, that is, the grandfather of Li Yuanshan, the general of the Right Xiaowei, the grandfather of Li Xiaozong, the general of the border city, and the grandfather of Li Yuan.

The old lady of the Li family has lived for more than nineties, and although the teenage child is Li Yuan's grandfather according to his generation, he has no status at all because he is a concubine. The three-day feast was not so much to celebrate his birth as to celebrate the old lady's continued majesty.

But I don't know what Lu Dao is for, the child looks very much like his eldest nephew......

Li Xiaozong is also a concubine, so even if he has a military position from the fifth rank of the general, as long as he returns to the Li family compound, he has no identity.

Li Yuan is Li Chao's grandson, although he is not the grandson of the long house.

The Li family was originally a dominant family in Longxi County, so Li Yuan's dominance was understandable. Xiangcheng Li, looking at the entire Great Sui, is also a big tree.

At the foot of the twilight mountain, Fang Xie specially instructed the big dog to drive the carriage to a place far away from the camp of the Red Sleeve Move, and asked Mu Xiaowaist to go to the Red Sleeve Trick to spend the night. Fang Xie said seriously that this time it was for the heavens, and Mu Xiaoxiao said that this is a new thing, and I can't leave anything, I must stay and take a look.

Mu Xiaoxiao said that he wanted to stay, whether it was Fang Xie or a big dog, no one had a temper.

So Mu Xiaoyin was still sleeping in the carriage, and the big dog reluctantly squatted on the side and planned to skin the hunted roe deer. He seldom does it himself, even though he is a man who does not like meat. Whenever Fang Xie asked him to do it himself, he would always say that a gentleman was far away from cooking, but he would never see the appearance of a gentleman.

He loves meat, but will never cook for himself unless he is forced to.

I don't know if there is any secret hidden behind his meaningless insistence, Fang Xie has tried but found nothing.

So when Fang Xie took Li Yuan, Cui Liushang and the others back to the carriage, the big dog was still looking at a few dead game and worried. There was an iron pot in front of him, and the water in the pot was already boiling, but the pheasant was still on one side, and the two roe deer were still hanging on the branches of the tree on the side.

After Fang Xie came back, he saw this, pretended to be angry, scolded a few words, and then smiled and asked Li Yuan and the others to wait a while, he personally plucked and peeled those wild meats, such a vulgar thing Li Yuan and the others would never interfere, and even watched Fang Xie throw the pheasant into the boiling water with skillful movements, and then threw a roe deer on the ground and peeled it with a sharp blade, everyone's eyes were full of strong disdain and contempt.

A gentleman is far away from cooking, and the children of nobles naturally will not touch such a vulgar and disgusting thing. Even Cui Luoshang felt uncomfortable after watching it for a while, so he simply pulled Li Yuan and others to climb a high slope to watch the night mountain scenery. Li Yuan and Cui Liushang talked and laughed, and gave the short, thin and ugly Liu Yineng a look, this is notorious in Xiangcheng, peeking at a woman taking a bath at the age of five, kicking through the widow's door at the age of nine, and sleeping with all the maids around him at the age of twelve, and sleeping all the women in the Qinglou of Xiangcheng at the age of seventeen, even the guy from the old bustard, immediately turned back, holding a bag of inferior poison from the three gates of the rivers and lakes.

Originally, they planned to cripple Cui Liushang, but now that they suddenly came out to solve this substitute ghost, they naturally became even more unscrupulous, even if they poisoned Cui Liushang, as long as they blamed Fang to explain a story of making money and killing people in the wilderness, those officials in Xiangcheng were arrested quickly and even county orders and county guards, could it be that they would really investigate carefully and offend the Li family and the Liu family?

The Cui family's strength in Xiangcheng was far inferior to that of the Li family and the Liu family, so this matter was not a big deal in the eyes of Li Yuan and Liu Yineng. But the two of them are one sinister and the other vicious, they both think they are smart but they don't forget to think about it at all, the first two admissions of the Martial Arts Academy, Yang Xiuchen, the governor of Hexi Province, recommended them to be from the Li family, why did they change to the Cui family who is just a second-rate family in Longxi this time?

People who are arrogant to the extreme are stupid.

Just two months ago, His Majesty the Emperor promoted Cui Concubine to a noble concubine.

The poison in Liu Yineng's hand was not a good thing at all, it was not a secret boutique made by Sanxiao Hall, it was not the seven-step poison of Ghost Weeping, and it was not the hundred flower poison of that crazy woman in Ling Yan Valley. It's just a bottle of the lower three indiscriminate drugs bought from the hands of the lower three people in the rivers and lakes, and the money can always buy ten bottles.

Inferior quality is inferior quality, and human life is not ambiguous.

The big dog who was sitting on the side boiling water picked the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice for something dirty. Then he felt sorry for himself and said that it was not a good thing to have a good nose, and the smell of this broken poison was so fucking bad.

Liu Yineng pretended to watch Fang Xie skin the roe deer, and then blocked the big dog's view and quietly sprinkled the packet of poison into the iron pot. The water in the pot suddenly crackled a few times, and the big dog couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was really difficult for you to poison such garbage, and then deliberately turned his head to look elsewhere and pretended not to find it.

Such an inferior method is that Fang Xie couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he saw it, and scolded everyone in the eighteenth generation of Liu Yineng's ancestors three times in his heart. But there is absolutely no female relative who greets Liu Yineng, the reason is very simple, Liu Yineng is too ugly, and Fang Xie really has no desire for such a person's maternal line.

The poisoning also requires the two people who were poisoned to pretend to turn a blind eye, and Fang Xie is really anxious for this son-in-law who is powerful in Xiangcheng. This kind of method is also mixed here in Xiangcheng, and it will always be the tail behind Li Yuan's ass. If you meet someone from a real big family in the imperial capital, you will have been played to death by others a long time ago, and you won't even have scum left.

Liu Yineng, who was poisoned, turned around and left, full of pride.

The big dog glanced at the pot of foam and asked, "What should I do?" Isn't this stupid guy who hasn't even seen water boil? The damn water is as greasy as porridge. ”

Fang Xie was helpless, got up and took a wooden scoop to scoop out the foam on the boiling water little by little: "Don't blame people, amateurs are amateurs after all." ”

……

……

Pheasants need boiling water to remove their hair, and roe deer should be washed in water after peeling. So when both of these things touch the water, they are both poisonous. This is the most intolerable thing for big dogs, and I don't know how many Liu Yineng's eight generations of ancestors have been scolded in my heart. He can tolerate anything wasted, but it is difficult for him to accept the waste of meat.

If it weren't for Fang Jie's repeated remarks that when he entered the best restaurant in the imperial capital to eat the best restaurant, the big dog might have immediately gone on strike.

So while rejoicing in meeting a pig-like opponent, Fang Xie also sighed that he had to be careful to beware of pig-like teammates. Oh no, it's a dog-like teammate.

After more than half an hour of suffering, Fang Xie finally prepared the wine and meat to entertain the distinguished guests. When the cooked meat was cut and put on the table, both Li Yuan and Fang Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where's the wine?"

Fang Xie saw that the big dog who went to the carriage to get wine had not returned, so he pretended to be displeased and shouted: "It's so hard to let you get some wine, do you think I give you too much wages?" When I get to Chang'an City, I'll hire a smarter, old and stupid one, and you won't be of any use at all! ”

Li Yuan, Cui Luoshang and others subconsciously looked at the carriage, but saw that the carriage shook violently, and the horses pulling the carriage seemed to be frightened and almost ran forward. Cui Luoshang's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but ask Fang Jie: "Why is your wine hidden in the iron box and locked?" Such a big move to get sake! ”

Fang Xie realized one thing at this time, and couldn't help but pray a few words for the big dog in his heart.

Just then the big dog flipped out of the carriage with a thud and landed on his face.

He struggled to stand up, walked crookedly with two wine sacs, his eyes were dark, the corners of his mouth were swollen in half, and he muttered as he walked, "Take the wine...... You thought it was that easy? ”

Fang Xie hurriedly greeted him, took the wine bag and said with a smile: "This old guy likes to steal my wine to drink, so he hides it a little secretly." ”

The big dog snorted, turned his head and walked to the side of the carriage, sat down against a tree, rubbed the corners of his aching mouth, and scolded in a low voice: "Mu Xiaowaist...... Isn't it just to take two bags of wine from you, as for such a ruthless hand? ”

Fortunately, his voice was very low, and Li Yuan and the others couldn't hear it.

Fang Xie personally filled the wine for Li Yuan, Cui Luoshang and others, and said with a smile: "This servant is hired from the countryside, and he has never seen much of the world, so don't be surprised by the sons." However, this wine is a good wine, and it can only be bought from the border city of Fangu. ”

Cui Luoshang picked up the wine glass and sniffed it, and couldn't help but praise: "The wine is fragrant, it is indeed a good wine." If you don't use supplies, you will know that this wine has been cellared for at least three or five years. ”

Li Yuan is also a good wine, and he couldn't help but pick up the wine glass and taste it.

"It's really good, although it's not as good as our Longtan brew in Xiangcheng, but it's also a rare wine, I can't imagine that such a cold and remote place as Fan Gu can produce such a good wine, it's rare."

"The wine is not bad, and the craftsmanship of the Shang brothers is even better!"

Li Yuan pointed to the barbecue in front of him and praised: "The color is golden, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside." ”

"Taste?"

Fang Xie hurriedly said, "See if it's still to taste?" ”

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, Liu Yineng saw him from the side and hurriedly said: "Brother Shang is the host today, we are the guests, how can there be a reason that the host does not eat the guest and eats first." You eat first, and we'll eat later. ”

Fang Jiefang had already picked up the chopsticks and said seriously: "No, no, it's just because today I am the master, and several sons are guests, how can there be a reason why guests don't eat the master's own food?" I think Li Gongzi is highly respected, and Li Gongzi will move the first chopsticks today, otherwise everyone will let the dishes go cold like this. ”

Li Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "We can only eat so delicious with Cui Gongzi's light, why don't we let Cui Gongzi move the chopsticks first?" ”

Cui Liushang is a real person, thought for a while and said, "Then I'll eat first." ”

"Wait!"

Fang Xie stopped: "Our Great Sui is a country of etiquette, and we can't lose etiquette." In this way, let's talk about their respective ages, who is the oldest and who eats first. ”

Cui Liushang smiled: "That's good! ”

Li Yuan's face turned pale, and he looked at the few people around him, but he was the oldest: "This is not good...... The older ones naturally let the younger ones eat first, which is the virtue advocated by the Great Sui. ”

"That's right!"

Cui Luo Shang said: "Brother Shang, you must be the youngest, and you should eat first." ”

"No, it's better for Li Gongzi to eat first"

"Shang Brothers Eat First"

"Li Gongzi eats first"

"Shang Brothers Eat First"

There was such a dispute, and no one refused to eat first after going back and forth more than a dozen times. At the end of the day, I couldn't think of any words to refuse, but no one would move the chopsticks first.

At this moment, a fragrant wind suddenly wafted over, followed by a red shadow blocking the view. When everyone was stunned, they saw a beautiful woman in a red dress pressing Li Yuan to the ground, pinching Li Yuan's mouth with one hand, and pouring the plate into Li Yuan's mouth with the other hand!

"Fuck! I'm in a hurry! ”

Mu Xiaoxiao scolded and glared at Fang Xie fiercely.
