Chapter 2: Wu Hook (5b)
In a moment, Cui'er took the cooked dishes out of the kitchen and placed them on the table. It's just two meat and two vegetables common to ordinary people, and there are no special tricks. It's just that the aroma is a little stronger, and it hooks people's index fingers. In the seat, Luo Shixin was the most anxious, and he didn't wait for the master's persuasion, so he grabbed out the chopsticks and grabbed a copy first. As soon as the dish was eaten, he frowned, and then, his brows became tighter and tighter, and there was a squeak in his nostrils, and after a while, he finally spit out the dish in his stomach, and at the same time let out a long sigh in his mouth, "Alas, my old Luo is more and more envious of Brother Zhongjian." Why are some people's lives so good! Hurry up and ask your sister-in-law, does she still have sisters? My Lao Luo wants to send a matchmaker to the door to ask for marriage. If you don't rush anything else, just rush these few dishes, and you won't live in vain in this life! β
"you, it's not serious!" Xuzi scolded in a low voice, and put a mouthful of food into his mouth. Qilu people have strong tastes, so just now he was worried that Qin Shubao and the others would not be able to adapt to Ying'er's craftsmanship. At this moment, he was praised by Luo Shixin, and he couldn't help but be a little suspicious. Therefore, this dish is tasted extremely carefully, and I can't wait to distinguish the amount of each spice with the tip of my tongue. As a result, the more you chew, the smoother the taste, and the more you taste it, the more comfortable it is on the tip of the tongue. I couldn't help but sit up straight and put on an extra pair of chopsticks. Before the new dish could be entered, Luo Shixin was heard protesting loudly, "You still talk about me, I still remember to comment." It's better for you to eat all the dishes by yourself, and you don't want to give others a chance to do it at all! β
Qin Shubao, Wu Yulin, and Zhang Jiang all laughed when they heard this, and they all raised funds to eat. Under the first product, I deeply sympathize with Luo Shixin's admiration. It's just that everyone is older than Xuzi, and they can't run their tongues like Luo Shixin's side. So I praised my younger siblings for their ingenuity, and they were able to make such a good dish. Especially Qin Shubao, who was originally a little dissatisfied with Li Xu's acceptance of Shi Erya as a concubine, so he spared no effort to praise people. I can't wait for Xuzi to welcome the eldest woman into the door immediately, so that the concubine will not be favored for a long time and control the inner house.
Xuzi was happy in her heart, and she persuaded her with a wine cup. The guests also raised their lamps to accompani, and their tongues and throats were washed by the wine, and they felt more and more authentic about the food. After a few drinks, at Luo Shixin's strong request, Qi'er came out of the back hall to toast the guests. According to the rules of Qilu, she filled the wine cup in front of everyone, and she also paid a small half of the wine, and then she excused herself from the wine, smiled and retreated, leaving only Cui'er to add a glass to everyone.
"My sister-in-law seems to have lived with us for many years!" Seeing that Ying'er was acting so decently, Luo Shixin put down the wine cup and praised it.
"I know that you are all Qilu heroes, so she learned some of them on the spot!" Xuzi smiled modestly, and it was difficult to hide the happiness on her face.
"That's how rare it is. I know where we come from, so we can learn so much like the locals. For this kind of thinking that knows how to think about others, Zhong Jian should also be content! Qin Shubao also put down the wine cup and said as a passerby.
"That's natural, think about me Li Xu He De how can I have to be so favored by God!" Xuzi nodded, feeling something. He has missed one good woman after another, but there are always unexpected creations waiting in life. When the time is ripe, the part that belongs to you comes just right, not sooner or later.
Speaking of which, he was a little grateful for God's favor. Whether it is Shi Erya or Qian'er, they can be very considerate for him. Although it is inevitable that the three of them will have some stumbles when they get along in the future, this blessing of all people is a great honor for Xuzi.
Cui'er, who was waiting on the side, heard her uncle speak frankly, and her heart was happy, and she picked up the wine jar and filled the pottery cup in front of Xuzi. As soon as he turned around, he heard that Luo Shixin had already turned his wine cup sideways, and asked with a smile: "This sister, you met Brother Zhongjian today, are you satisfied?" β
The dowry girl of any big family, nine times out of ten, is the concubine of her own uncle, so the behavior and appearance of the master's husband is often related to the happiness of her life. Luo Shixin was a joke without concealment, and he didn't think about it so deeply at all. But Cui'er's face was flushed, and he couldn't bear to turn around and run away, but the wine jar in his hand trembled and trembled, and almost poured all the wine in the jar into Luo Shixin's cuffs.
"I wanted to sigh at my sister-in-law's mouth, why did you ......?" Luo Shixin deliberately narrowed his eyes and wanted to continue messing around. was kicked under the table by Qin Shubao, and had to swallow the second half of the sentence back into his stomach.
"The slave is rude, please punish the master!" Cui'er realized that she had made trouble, put down the wine jar, stepped aside, and bowed her head to plead guilty.
"Okay, okay, it's Brother Luo's own arm dangling back and forth, what's wrong with you." Qin Shubao suppressed Luo Shixin, turned his head and smiled comfortingly.
On this occasion, Li Xu naturally would not blame his family. smiled and waved his hand, comforting: "He is full of tongues and deserves to be punished." Go and serve Madame, and I'll call you again if there's something to do!" β
Cui'er fled into the back hall as if she had been pardoned. Listening to the footsteps going away, Luo Shixin relentlessly asked everyone for justice, "Look at it, I got married, and even the girl who accompanied me was protected." The ancients said that brothers are like siblings, and wives are like clothes. When I get to Zhong Jian, I think I'm afraid I'm going to have to turn it upside down! β
"General Luo said easily, when will you tear a few pieces of your own clothes and show them to everyone!" Zhang Jiang held the wine cup and interjected.
Everyone laughed again, enough trouble, Wu Yulin looked around, and reminded in a low voice: "From my brother and sister, we can't treat others slowly." Although this house is not small, it is a little too dilapidated. It's better for everyone to go out for a while and find a new yard for Zhong Jian. lest the younger siblings' families will see it in the future and blame us for being rude. β
Although Xuzi has never told everyone about the origin of Ying'er, with Wu Yulin's many years of experience in officialdom, he can't see that he is noble. Sensei said that this rare cooking skills and down-to-earth and generous manners, even the beautiful maid who served the wine just now is not something that ordinary people can take. So he put himself in Xuzi's shoes, hoping to help create some external conditions to make this karma more satisfying.
"Yes, using this house as a new house is indeed a grievance for my younger siblings. This matter is wrapped up in a few of us, and Zhong Jian will accompany his younger siblings at home later, and a few of us will go around, and when we see a suitable house, we will set up a next one. The things that should be purchased inside are also neatly purchased, and it doesn't cost a lot of money anyway. After a slight sigh, Qin Shubao nodded in agreement.
"That's not going to work, how can I let a few brothers break the bank. Besides, we won't be able to stay here for long, and when the army slows down, we will soon march to Wagang! Seeing that everyone was talking and was about to put it into practice, Xuzi hurriedly spoke out to stop it.
He was not a very picky person about life, and besides, this time the army came to exterminate the Wagang bandits, not for enjoyment. According to the original plan, this army of soldiers and horses could not stay in Yuanwu for a few days. In order to rest for a few days, he paid for a large mansion, even if he didn't want to spend half a penny himself, he felt that this move was too extravagant.
was about to say something else, but he heard Qin Shubao explain with a smile: "Zhong Jian probably doesn't know yet, I'm afraid we will have to live in this original martial city for a month." General Zhang received another holy decree, and the imperial court sent an additional army of soldiers and horses to cooperate, asking everyone to join forces and jointly attack Wagang. This place of mentorship is in Yuanwu, so let's just rest here for a while! β
"Rest the troops, the Wagang army has just been frustrated by us, don't take advantage of the situation at this time and wait for reinforcements here, won't it give the enemy a chance to breathe in vain?" After listening to Qin Shubao's words, Luo Shixin immediately jumped up and protested loudly.
"When the imperial court issued the holy decree, how did we know that we had defeated the Wagang army!" Qin Shubao shrugged his shoulders and replied. He was also very dissatisfied with the will of the imperial court. The new soldiers and horses were led by Liu Changgong and Xiao Huaijing, both of whom did not know the soldiers, and at this time they ran to help, not so much to cooperate with the bandits, but to feel that this battle had a head, and they wanted to get a piece of the victory results.
"It's okay, the soldiers from the eastern capital, at least the armor equipment is better than our county soldiers!" Wu Yulin groaned for a while, and he already understood the key point, and smiled to relieve everyone.
"I'm afraid that they will be active when they grab the credit, but they will not let out half of the materials and equipment in their hands!" Luo Shixin sat back on the stool and said stupidly. Raising the wine cup and taking a big sip of himself, he continued to ask, "What about Master Zhang, is he just going to let those bastards in the court rub it?" β
"Although Lord Zhang has the name of Doctor Guanglu, after all, he is not in the court, and he can't let the emperor know the truth in the army!" Wu Yulin thought about it and argued for Zhang Xutuo.
"Even if Lord Zhang is in the court, His Majesty will not hear his advice at this moment. According to the messenger of the decree, now the eastern capital is the king of Yue, and the emperor has already toured north a month ago, and he will not return until the end of the year! Qin Shubao sighed and said again.
"What?" This time it was Li Xu's turn to jump up, ignoring the surprise on everyone's faces, and eagerly asked, "Brother Shubao, when did this happen." Can you elaborate on that? β
"Lord Zhang and I are in the nursery to meet the holy decree. It was five days ago, and it was the same Gonggong Wen who sent the message, and he said that His Majesty had gone north to join the Turkic Alliance, and he had been gone for seven or eight days. What's wrong, does Zhong Jian think there's something wrong? Qin Shubao glanced at Li Xu, not knowing why the other party was suddenly so nervous.
"Oh my God!" Xuzi, like Luo Shixin, slumped back into his seat. Yang Guang has been gone for more than ten days, and it is impossible to chase him back no matter what. He was going to make an alliance with the Turks, but he didn't know what his heart was thinking, and his Turkic brother was sharpening his knife at the moment.
"A big fat sheep sent to the door!" The cruel laughter of the Turkic wolf rode sounded in his heart, and cold sweat on Xuzi's forehead was dripping down.
Alcoholic note: According to the official history, Yang Guang toured the north that year and was trapped in Yanmen Pass.
