Chapter Seventy-Four: Cooking Wine (3)
She saw that Xie Yan was too anxious to drink, thought for a while, and suggested with a smile: "Even if you have snacks to drink, you will be drunk, so why don't we each take turns to say one...... Gonzo, if the other two people find it enjoyable, they will each have a drink, on the contrary, if one of the other two people does not like to listen, the person who said will punish himself with a drink, how about it? ”
She wanted to say that everyone came to gossip, but in ancient times, gossip was really Qimen Five Elements Gossip, not what it means now.
Xie Ying thought it was very interesting, and hurriedly said: "I'll talk first, I'll talk first." She thought for a while, blinked her eyes, and said mysteriously: "Do you know, I heard that the crown prince appointed by our emperor is a fool, and he doesn't even distinguish between spring and autumn, cold and summer." ”
Hagi Niang heard about this for the first time, and couldn't help but be very surprised, and consciously drank a glass. I just think that this wine is sweet and sweet, mellow and long, very delicious, no pungent wine taste, just like a fruity drink.
Xie Yan said: "When did this become an old news, and you still dare to show it off." ”
Xie Ying was unconvinced and said: "You haven't heard of Sister Hagi, can't you be sympathetic to your sister?" She glared at her brother angrily, but honestly drank her own cup.
It's the next person's turn to speak.
Hagi Niang, the person who proposed it, was lively herself, but she couldn't think of anything interesting for a while, so she could only look at Xie Yan with expectant eyes.
Xie Yan thought hard for a while, and finally remembered one thing: "Wang Guobao and Wang Gong, the two clans of the Taiyuan Wang family, although they are relatives, hate each other, and the most interesting thing is that the younger sisters of these two people, one is married to the emperor and the other is married to the king of Langya. But the relationship between the two of them is more indifferent than that of passers-by who are not related by blood. It is said that Wang Guobao also threatened that he and Wang Gong would not share the sky. ”
Hagi Niang asked in surprise: "Is Sima Daozi, the king of Langya?" His wife and clan are all from the Taiyuan Wang clan like the emperor...... Why did these two turn against each other? ”
Xie Yan said lightly: "Wang Gong is the elder brother of Queen Wang Fahui, so he is naturally more favored by the emperor than the cousin of the little Princess Langya. ”
This was said very vaguely, but Hagi Niang understood, she sighed, raised her glass and drank the wine in the glass.
Xie Ying felt very bored, she complained: "We are chatting, why did my brother bring about the affairs of the court, and it is also the affairs of the Wang family!" No, no, brother, drink a drink by himself. ”
Xie Yan had no choice but to punish himself.
It's Hagi's turn.
Hagi Niang has been thinking about it since just now, why did she propose to play this game, obviously she doesn't leave home and has poor knowledge, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot.
Xie Ying was clamoring to hear her, Xie Yan also looked at her expectantly, she had no choice but to say nonsense: "There is a place called Dunhuang in the Western Regions, where there is an endless desert, where there is almost no grass, and only a special plant called cactus can survive in the sand." In that place in Dunhuang, there are nine hours of day that are daytime, and only three hours are night. There is a mountain made of sand there, called Mingsha Mountain, this mountain is very warm during the day, it is very comfortable to walk on it, but at night the wind is loud, very eerie and terrifying, and some people even get lost in it and freeze to death. There is an oasis near Mingsha Mountain, called Crescent Spring, which is an endless pool of sweet springs, shaped like a crescent moon, and there are all kinds of beautiful flowers and plants growing around the spring, and it is said that on the day of the full moon, you can also see fairies bathing and playing in the spring water. ”
Xie Ying listened leisurely: "There is such a strange place in this world, I have heard of it in the Western Regions, but I have never heard of these strange things. Sister, how do you know? Have you been there? ”
"Of course." Hagi Niang said proudly, at this time she suddenly reacted, and hurriedly added: "Of course I haven't been there, I also read it from a book." ”
Xie Yan also sighed very much: "Dunhuang does have its place, in Liangguo, where it is said that Buddhism is prevalent, many monks in the Central Plains have dug grottoes there to worship Buddha statues, I also want to see that place." ”
Both of his brother and sister drank a glass each, Hagi Niang didn't expect that she would pass the test so easily, and she was very happy.
At this time, I only heard some applause, and it turned out that Xie Yan, the father of Xie Ying's brother and sister, Xie An, also heard the wind and stood outside the door for a while.
Hagi Niang hurriedly stayed and saluted, respectfully greeting the big man.
Xie An is the most casual person, and he praised bluntly: "This girl has extraordinary vision, I don't know which lady she is?" ”
The happiest person was Xie Ying, she hurriedly coquettishly said: "Father, this is the eldest daughter-in-law of Danyang Zangfu, and she is my best friend." As he spoke, he glanced at Xie Yan proudly, meaning, it's not your turn to speak, hahaha.
Xie An sighed: "It's ridiculous that I boast of being well-read, but I'm not as good as a boudoir woman, I'm really ashamed." ”
Hagi Niang was not modest or presumptuous, she replied calmly: "Xie Xiang, you are wrong. ”
Xie Ying was startled, and was about to remind her to speak more leisurely, only to hear Hagi Niang continue: "You already have the world in mind, why do you stick to a border town that you don't know?" She said this very naturally, and she was not complacent because of Xie An's praise as the prime minister of the dynasty, nor did she flatter and flatter the high-ranking officials and nobles.
Xie Yan looked at the faint moonlight shrouded around her, and only felt very peaceful and happy in her heart.
Xie An nodded and praised: "Exactly, it's me who is stupid." ”
He stopped talking, but took a slow walk in the moonlight.
Xie Ying hurriedly said to Hagi Niang: "Sister, you are so bold, I will sweat for you." ”
Hagi Niang laughed at her: "Don't you know what kind of character your own father is?" How could Xie Xiang be dissatisfied because of people's words, you also underestimated your father too much. ”
Xie Ying said angrily: "I don't care about you yet. ”
It was already late, Haginiang got up to say goodbye, Xie Yan sent her into the carriage with good manners, and it was rare that she didn't move her hands and feet.
Hagi Niang said goodbye to him with a wicked smile: "Lang Jun respects the virtuous and virtuous people today, and the slave loves him deeply, and I hope that Lang Jun will always be this day, and the slave will be very peaceful." ”
Xie Yan also smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." He rolled over and got into the carriage.
Hagi Niang was shocked and hurriedly said: "I'll just go back by myself, why are you coming up?" ”
Xie Yan laughed heartily, hugged her into his arms, and said, "It's so late, you don't go out with Caitang, how can I rest assured that you can go back by yourself?" Besides, since my sister-in-law said that she 'loves me deeply', how can I be indifferent? ”
Hagi Niang regretted it very much, she shouldn't have spoken so quickly, but she couldn't speak at this time.
