Chapter 326: Going to the Banquet (II)

Walking into the Wang family compound, the four people saw a different scene from the outside, under their feet is a road paved with stone bricks that have been polished and carefully spliced, the road in the front yard can be said to be wide and flat, and a large number of trees and bonsai are planted on both sides of the road, the people who design these landscapes are very exquisite at a glance, and the tall trees are selected, and the buildings in front and on both sides are tall ** , whether the tiles on it or the red paint on the pillars on the outside of the corridor, are all brand new, and the entire front yard is integrated, giving people a sense of atmosphere, and also showing the prestige of the Wang family, which makes people can't help but admire: it is really worthy of being the mansion of the county lord of Jianghai County.

"Wow, this new home is so beautiful, it's getting bigger. Bai Xiaomo took Wang Yuan's hand and looked around curiously, feeling very strange.

"Yes, seeing that the house is really wide, such a large courtyard has been built in such a short time. Wang Yuan also felt that the new Wang family compound was different.

"Yes, yes, this is still good, the previous Wang family compound always gave people a gloomy feeling. Dongfang Qingru said bluntly.

"Really?" Wang Yuan heard this and said with a wry smile: "Maybe it's because that family doesn't have any human feelings." ”

As soon as she thinks of the warmth and warmth of the people she has seen in that Wang family compound, and everyone who will do anything for the sake of power, Wang Yuan will show a solemn expression and a painful meeting.

When the three girls were admiring the Wang family compound, Xu Qiming was looking around aimlessly, the freshness of the three girls had not declined, and Xu Qiming was not in a hurry to see Wang Yun, so he looked around.

Although none of them had seen what the Ren family's county lord's mansion looked like (Xu Qiming had been there but hadn't seen it carefully), they all had the feeling that this county lord's mansion must be much stronger than the county lord's mansion that was destroyed in the melee before.

Then at this moment, he glanced around in his eyes, his pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had found something unusual, so he quickly turned his head to look at the corner of the corridor on the third floor of the building on the right, and he saw a man in white standing proudly there, looking from afar, like a white crane flowing and handsome.

What he saw was no one else, it was the man who had caused him a heavy blow in front of him! The person he would never forget in his life, Bai Shaoyu!

"It's him, why is he here?" Xu Qiming wondered in his heart, Bai Shaoyu was Bai Yuexi's guard, Bai Yuexi should be in Longhai Bai's house at this time, but why was Bai Shaoyu here?

"Hahaha, Qiming, you can let your father wait. Just when Xu Qiming was about to rush up and take a look, Wang Yun's laughter came, and he saw Wang Yun striding out of the main hall of the pavilion in front of him.

"Meet my father. Although he still calls Wang Yun his father-in-law at home on weekdays, it is because he has to take into account the thoughts and distinctions of the family, but in front of Wang Yun, in order not to be divided, Xu Qiming naturally called him his father-in-law, and did not care about Bai Shaoyu anymore, Xu Qiming stepped forward and bowed his hand to Wang Yun.

"Meet my father. "Meet Daddy!" Wang Yuan and Bai Xiaomo also stepped forward, bowed slightly, and greeted Wang Yun.

Dongfang Qingru didn't know what to call Wang Yun, so she had to learn from Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan to call her father.

"Hahaha, they're all here, not bad, let's all come in" Wang Yun was very happy, and his two daughters pulled Xu Qiming to the main hall.

Wang Yun's enthusiasm made Xu Qiming a little embarrassed, so he had to follow him, before leaving, he looked up at the place just now, and found that Bai Shaoyu had disappeared at some point, but at this time, he didn't have time to think about it, so he had to take care of the things in front of him first.

And just after Xu Qiming left, Bai Shaoyu, who was hiding at the staircase, showed his figure again, staring at Xu Qiming who was following Wang Yun and Bai Xiaomo beside him, his face was expressionless, but in his eyes, there was a trace of struggle...

"Qiming, let's not get drunk today. "Walking into the main hall, the feast is ready, small tables are prepared on both sides of the main hall, and in the middle is a stove with cigarettes wafting out, and the whole room is spotlessly cleaned.

This is the place where Wang Yun invited Xu Qiming, and the tables on both sides are the dining tables.

Xu Qiming understands that this is a unique way of dining as an official, and the rules of ordinary people and outside restaurants are different from the rules of eating together, according to the official system, the banquet on formal occasions is held in the main hall, with the host in the center, the guest on the right, and the Hakka family on the left.

Xu Qiming, as the county magistrate of the Western District, logically wants to entertain guests like this, but he is not so particular, they all eat together, he thinks that such an atmosphere is good, even if it is the time when the lord of the country comes, he does this.

is also because he was just a small Lizheng at that time, and the lord of the country came to visit suddenly, Xu Qiming did not have too much time to prepare, if it was next time, it is estimated that Xu Qiming would have to act in accordance with the official etiquette rules.

Xu Qiming took the opportunity to look around, on both sides of the main seat in the middle of the wall, there were bookshelves of the height of people, which were full of all kinds of books, including the books that Wang Yun usually reads, and there are also some records of Wang Yun's handling of government affairs, there is a wooden carving hanging on the wall directly above the main seat, and there is a green plant nearby, next to the bookshelf on the far left, there is a thicker and more huge shelf, which is full of bells, on the opposite side of the bell frame, there is a landscape painting on the wall, and the floor is cleaned and can even reflect the light from the window, reflecting a blurred image, and the whole main hall gives people a sense of rigor in terms of layout and style。

"Father, this is our gift to you. At this time, Wang Yuan took out the crystal handicraft she had just bought from the storage ring and handed it to Wang Yun: "My daughter doesn't often come to see her father, please forgive me." ”

"It's all a family, and we give gifts, so take them back. Wang Yun also has a good face, so naturally he will not accept Wang Yuan's gift, but after some persuasion, Wang Yun finally accepted the gift given to him by his eldest daughter and son-in-law.

"Come, Qiming, please be seated. Wang Yun ordered someone to take the gift to his room, and then pulled Xu Qiming to the first incense case on the right side, asked him to sit down, and then arranged for Wang Yuan and Dongfang Qingru to sit on the right side in turn.

"Xiaomo, don't you want to be daddy. At this time, Wang Yun looked at Bai Xiaomo, who was still standing beside him, squatted down, and touched Bai Xiaomo's head lovingly.

"Well, I want to!" Bai Xiaomo said, giving Wang Yun a big hug: "Daddy, my sister and I miss you very much." ”

"Hahaha, Xiaomo is so good. Wang Yun looked at his little daughter, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and hugged her up: "Come, sit with Daddy." ”

After that, he hugged Bai Xiaomo and walked to the main seat and knelt down. Bai Xiaomo sat obediently beside Wang Yun, looking at Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan from time to time, smiling, looking very cute.

"Daddy, eat sugar. Bai Xiaomo took out a milk candy from his pocket, tore open the wrapped oil paper, and said in a tone full of children: "This is what Sister Qingru took me to buy, it's sweet, Daddy should eat a piece too." ”

"Well, thank you Xiaomo..."Wang Yun smiled, ate the milk candy handed by Bai Xiaomo, and immediately nodded: "It's so sweet." ”

"Hey, it's delicious. Bai Xiaomo asked softly.

"Well, it's delicious, it's very sweet, it's mainly because Xiaomo feeds his father personally, so it's even more delicious. Wang Yun gave a thumbs up and inadvertently praised Bai Xiaomo, making Bai Xiaomo a little shy.

"Father, there are still two tables on the left, I don't know who hasn't come yet?" Wang Yuan looked at the father and daughter on the main seat so close, and couldn't help but smile, looked at the vacant seat opposite, and asked.

"Ah, it's your brother and your fourth uncle, they'll be there soon. Wang Yun replied.

"I see. Wang Yuan nodded, thinking back that he hadn't seen his family for a long time.

"Qiming, don't be restrained, this time is a small banquet for the family, and my father also misses you so he sent someone to invite you. Wang Yun looked at Xu Qiming, who was a little restrained, and said with a smile.

"It's a great honor to have my father in mind. Xu Qiming hurriedly said, "I don't know if the ancestor is okay recently?"

"The ancestor has been cultivating in Longyun Mountain recently, he is all right, and from time to time he and Wang Zhong and Wang Yi also often come here to take a look, by the way, you still talked to me about you last time, you have the kung fu to go and see his old man's house." Wang Yun stroked the short hair on his chin and said.

"I will definitely go to see the ancestor when I have time. Xu Qiming nodded, of course he had a lot of respect for his master.

Just as they were chatting, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, accompanied by the arrival of the eldest young master and the fourth master of the waiter, a middle-aged man in a gray robe and a young man in white, about twenty years old, with a slightly frivolous expression entered the main hall.

"See the head of the family (father)!" the two saluted Wang Yun.

Needless to say, the middle-aged man is Wang Yun's fourth brother Wang Peng, the only one who survived Wang Yun's brothers in the big melee, Wang Peng and Wang Yun have a very good relationship, and the current Wang Peng is also very popular with Wang Yun, as for the young man in his twenties, he is naturally Wang Yun's eldest son, Xu Qiming's eldest brother Wang Jie.

"Excuse me, take a seat. Wang Yun nodded, pointed to the seat on the left, and the two of them lifted their long clothes and knelt on the cushion placed next to the table.

Xu Qiming looked at Wang Jie, who was sitting opposite, still looking like a hanger, but obviously he had restrained a lot, the two looked at each other, and they quickly moved away, and they didn't deal with each other.

It's no wonder that Xu Qiming was the one who beat him up at the beginning, how can he talk well when they meet now, despite this, Xu Qiming still adjusted his mentality, and nodded slightly to Wang Jie the next time he looked at each other, as a greeting.

Wang Jie saw that Xu Qiming was polite to him, and Wang Yun was above the hall again, so he had no choice but to nod and return the salute.

"Okay, now that we're all here, come on, let's serve the food. Wang Yun looked at everyone present, and then summoned the waiter on the side and said.

The waiters had to be ordered to retreat, and soon, plates of delicious dishes that stimulated the taste buds were served on the table in front of everyone in turn, and Xu Qiming's table also had an extra pot of wine and a wine bottle, which seemed to be specially prepared by Wang Yun for himself.

"Qiming, there is only Weng's son-in-law in the banquet today, and there is no official position, please. Wang Yun poured a glass of wine into his wine bottle, raised his hands, and said to Xu Qiming.

"Okay, you are not the county lord of Jianghai County, and I am not the county commander of the Western District, I am just your son, please. Xu Qiming also raised the wine bottle full of fine wine and said.

The two of them saluted, then drank it all, and at the same time showed each other the empty wine glasses, to show that there was not a single thing left after drinking.

The banquet began, everyone was chatting, basically Wang Yun was leading, Xu Qiming and others were answering.

After the wine was almost drunk and everyone's fun was provoked, Wang Yun's eyes rolled around, raised the wine glass in his hand, and said something in Bai Xiaomo's ear at the same time, Bai Xiaomo nodded, indicating that he knew, and then stood aside, at this time Wang Yun said: "Come, Qiming, let's have another glass, Xiaomo, go and pour wine for Qiming." ”

"Yes. Bai Xiaomo said obediently, and then trotted down from the main seat and walked in front of Xu Qiming: "Brother Qiming, I'll pour you wine." ”

After that, a pair of white little hands picked up the wine jug on the side and gently poured wine into the wine bottle in front of Xu Qiming.

"This..."Xu Qiming was a little confused, not knowing what Wang Yun was going to do.

After a glass of wine, Wang Yun's face flushed slightly and said, "Qiming, I want to discuss something with you for my father." ”

"What's the matter? If my father has something to say, he will definitely be able to do what he can do in the future. Xu Qiming had long expected that Wang Yun might have something to do when he invited him, and he was a little mentally prepared, so he said.
