Chapter 108: Spoiling (1)
The next day, it was Xie Shi's birthday.
The house was full of joy, but Xie Shi was not happy.
Although he said that it would be good to keep a low profile, Guo had already instructed him to make it more lively. In addition, Xie Yan deliberately drove out of the birthday celebration, and there was no reason to press it.
Tianjin is still not awake, Xie Shi really doesn't worry about her. It wasn't until the birthday banquet began that he went out and appeared at the birthday banquet in a bad mood, and from beginning to end, he was absent-minded.
He is like this, Xie Yan is like this, and Liu Yu is even more so.
Xie Yan saluted and pushed Liu Yu. Due to the scene, Liu Yu had to raise his glass and stand up.
"I salute Xie Jungong for a cup, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan."
In the back eight words, he bit extremely hard, and others couldn't hear the problem, but Xie Yan quietly clenched a glass of wine, and a layer of fine sweat broke out on his nervous back.
He said the congratulatory message so openly, but secretly stabbed Xie Shi for his advanced age. Although the voice was very strange, Xie Shi just raised the wine glass and drank it very face-savingly.
Xie Shi's heart was not at the birthday banquet, what Liu Yu said, he didn't listen carefully at all, he just regarded him as a junior like Xie Yan, and after putting down the wine glass, he glanced at the servants behind him.
The servant quickly handed Liu Yu a piece of mutton fat white jade and jade as a gift in return.
Liu Yu sneered in his heart, but he still took it, bowed to Xie Shi, and sat down again.
Xie Yan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
In contrast, the ladies at the other table looked happy. Because there was a foreign man, there was a curtain in the middle.
Guo Shi took the lead in standing up and also persuaded Xie Shi to drink.
After her, it was Xie Daoyun, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, and then the two concubines of the Chen family and the Xu family.
Xie Shi rewarded his eldest niece with a set of excellent study treasures, but he didn't say anything about Guo and the two concubines.
The three wives and concubines already have different hearts, and they are all a little unhappy at this time. Especially Guo's family, she worked hard, but she didn't even get a word of comfort, and she felt more and more that her husband was seduced by a little slut.
Xie Daoyun, who was sitting opposite, couldn't get used to her not being a housewife, so he glanced at her, but he couldn't help it because of the occasion.
At that moment, someone rushed up from outside.
"Grandpa Jun, someone from outside is here, saying that he came to celebrate his birthday on the order of His Royal Highness Langxi, and the person has already come in."
Everyone present was stunned.
Outside, Wang Guobaolang's voice was already heard, "Xie Jungong, Wang brought Bo Lite to ask you for a glass of wine, I don't know if it's abrupt?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the others stepped in.
He was wearing a winter robe with dark bamboo patterns, a ribbon at his waist, and black boots on his feet, and he came in with a cold wind from outside, and the temperature in the house dropped a lot in an instant.
All eyes were on him.
Xie Shi narrowed his eyes and didn't answer yet.
Xie Yan said secretly: It's coming......
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Wang Guobao raised his eyebrows slightly, turned around and glanced at the person behind him.
Zhang He, who came with him, was his confidant, and immediately took the gift in.
Wang Guobao followed him slowly, seemingly calm, but his eyes swept towards the curtain.
There was a woman sitting behind the curtain, and his actions were really inappropriate. His gaze didn't linger for long, and then he swept back, as if he had been swept inadvertently.
It's obviously rude, but it makes people can't catch the fault.
Xie Yan, who had been staring at him vigilantly like this, was annoyed, his fist clenched, and his bones and arms clicked.
Xie Shi glanced at him faintly, and finally spoke, "Come on, pour wine for this Lord Wang who came from afar." As he spoke, he added a pair of chopsticks.
Wang Guobao happily sat down and happened to sit opposite Liu Yu.
As soon as he sat down, he felt a murderous aura coming from the opposite side, and raised his eyes to see Liu Yu's face clearly, and he was stunned at first, as if he was familiar.
"Who is this?"
Without waiting for Xie Yan to summon him, Liu Yu had already gritted his teeth and spoke, "Under Liu Yu, it's just a nobody." ”
Liu Yu? Liu Yu!
Wang Guobao's eyes widened, and he looked sideways at Zhang He beside him, and Zhang He nodded imperceptibly. When he looked at Liu Yu again, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Interesting, interesting, really interesting, this trip was not in vain.
He didn't forget that this person was the man who had visited the church in Guixiangyuan Tianjin, and Liu Yu had already understood that it was the person in front of him who took Tianjin away that day.
As the saying goes, enemies are very red when they meet.
Liu Yu's murderous aura was as sharp as a man.
The atmosphere condensed at this moment, and the whole room was quiet, and the ladies behind the curtain also noticed that something was wrong, and they almost didn't dare to come out.
This change finally pulled Xie Shi's mind back from the stunned Tianjin.
At the end, he was used to seeing big scenes, knowing that the other party must have bad intentions when he came to the door, but Xie Shi calmed down and raised his wine glass.
"Lord Wang came from afar, and Xie did it first as a respect."
Wang Guobao retracted his gaze, also raised his wine glass, and said with a smile: "How dare you, it should be Wang to thank the prince of the county." ”
As soon as he drank it all, as soon as the wine glass was put down, Xie Yan stood up, "Today is a family banquet, since Lord Wang is here, then he will not get drunk and not return." Come on, full! ”
Before Wang Guobao came, he knew that this night's birthday banquet would inevitably become a Hongmen banquet, and he was prepared to be filled with a cup, so he took Zhang He with him. There was no postponement at this time, but he glanced at Zhang He intentionally or unintentionally, and in Liu Yu's murderous gaze, he got up and clinked glasses with Xie Yan.
Of course, Zhang He would not be idle, and while he was wary of the table, he looked towards the curtain again. The person who practiced martial arts, his eyes were like torches, and the four figures behind the curtain clearly fell into his eyes.
They came this time, on the surface to congratulate their birthdays, but in fact, they were investigating Tianjin's situation in Xie Mansion. Before I came, I had found out who was in this house, and naturally I also found out that Tianjin was bitten by a poisonous snake.
As Xie Yan thought, they all decided that it was man-made.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Guobao's face was slightly red, vaguely drunk, and he raised his glass again, still smiling, "Xie Jungong's new beauty, why didn't he come out to toast?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room condensed again.
Xie Shi endured this point, and also let out a trace of anger.
Wang Guobao continued as if he didn't know: "It's not a secret, Wang came this time, but he brought the words of His Royal Highness Langxie...... I wonder if I can let Wang meet? ”
Sure enough, it was full of disgust.
The impatience in Xie Shi's eyes flashed away, but his tone was very calm, "It's unfortunate that the concubine went out to play a few days ago and was bitten by an evil animal, so it was inconvenient to come out to greet guests." If the evil king of Lang has anything to say, Lord Wang might as well say it directly. ”
Wang Guobao pretended to be surprised, "There is such a thing? “
No one in the room answered.
Wang Guobao didn't feel embarrassed, and shook his head with the intention of drinking, "His Royal Highness Lang Xie knows that she is playing badly, and he wants Wang to warn her to serve Xie Jungong wholeheartedly." After suffering a loss, he knew that he would have a restrained mind, and there must be no need for Wang to make another move. ”
Xie Shi let out a "heh" and sneered.
Liu Yu always had a gloomy face, but he was secretly thinking about whether to take advantage of tonight to let this person come and go.
Thinking like this, Xie Yan stood up again, slapped his big hand on his shoulder, and pressed it again.
"Come on, come on, Lord Wang, don't just say that you don't drink, you won't return if you don't get drunk, you won't return if you don't get drunk!"
"Good! Just thank General Xie, if you don't get drunk, you won't return! ”
