Afterward.

Something big is wrong. Afterword.

Looking at the exquisiteness, Yu Qi was full of joy and entered the table. Because tonight is a family gathering, there has been no barrier between men and women, who knows that the eldest master invited a few generals and friends who walked on the official level. The old lady and others came down from the attic, near the banquet hall, and only a domestic servant came to report: the old man said that it was originally a family banquet, and now the people invited are close friends, so there is no need to see outside, and tonight's banquet is still treated as a family banquet, and there is no need to set up a screen, nor a separate banquet.

When Cao and Zhuang Hu heard this, they were dissatisfied in their hearts, Cao felt that Dongfu was doing things casually, while Zhuang Hu felt that he didn't give orders, and the people would not take the initiative to handle it, and this kind of thing is not a joke in Sifu now? After all, the two of them assisted in tonight's banquet, and they should have been advised, but who expected that the incident of Zhuang Pu Yage would disturb their minds, and they forgot to arrange the banquet thoroughly.

Fortunately, the old lady didn't blame, and said: "In this case, it is cheaper, and it saves you from going through the hall to serve food and soup." ”

At that time, the old lady pointed to the two pregnant aunts to sit on her left and right, and asked the girls to join her, and at the same time called Huiyuan, the wives accompanied the guests to one table, and the aunts accompanied the other ladies brought by the guests, and it was another table.

The three brothers Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Wei originally let the children of the guests accompany them, but because the old men had something to discuss, they let Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Yu go to accompany the host and guest table.

As soon as it was settled, Zhuang Hu signaled and clapped his hands to pass the soup. When Yu Qi saw Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Pu unhappy, she thought of Mr. Kwan and Ah Yu of Accord, and waited for the soup for a while, she was inexplicably anxious, and finally couldn't help but take advantage of the convenience to get up and go out. That's why Yu Qi spoke to Sanxi outside, and happened to meet the story of Linglong.

Now, Yu Qi has been reset.

When I came in, I heard Zhuang Pu say to the old man at the table: "Each has its own future, and the master doesn't have to worry about my plans." That year, I went to Shudi, but I felt deeply, I was in the distant countryside of Zhuqi's children, and it was really a good future to look at it. They don't have to work hard for the country, they don't have to go to the battlefield to defend against the enemy, they carry cages and fight birds to drink tea every day, and they are also at ease every day. Anyone is willing to get such a future. But I think that the life of life is counted day and night, the length is measured, and the peace and luxury are not worth it. ”

A host and guest smiled and bowed to the eldest master Zhuang Xi and the third master Zhuang Qin: "The second son is really ambitious, there is no need to say that his talent is very new!" I don't want to refer to Lu Guan, or follow the eldest lord or under the command of Lord Li, I think it's appropriate. ”

The corners of Zhuang Pu's mouth raised slightly, revealing a little disdain.

Zhuang Qin saw his son's smiling face, was very displeased, stared at him and coughed, and then said: "Lord Yuan and your eldest master wear the same sleeve robe, and it is an excellent point to be able to talk to you." It's so disrespectful for you to say so many things instead of thanking you. ”

Therefore, Zhuang Qin poured himself full wine and saluted the lobbyist.

Zhuang Pu raised his wine glass with a lazy gesture and saluted slightly. When the wine glass was released, another guest at the banquet asked Zhuang Pu with a smile: "Why doesn't the second young master want to serve as an official?" ”

Zhuang Pu smiled: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that the future I got from my family relationship is more or less foundational, and if I have a good foundation, I don't have the brainpower to keep it, so I squander it arbitrarily." I think it would be very different if I could make a career out of my own business. For example, my second master and second uncle, business business, is not the way he walked out alone, no one in our house has been in business for generations, and I admire the second uncle very much. ”

Lord Yuan smiled politely: "So, the second son wants to do business!" Ambition does not estimate the high and low, does not depreciate inside and outside. Where there is a will, there is a way, and there is a responsibility to promote the world. Zhuang Mansion will add a business world. ”

Zhuang Xi, Zhuang Qin, and Zhuang Lu hugged their fists again and again.

Subsequently, Master Zhuang Xi was puzzled and said: "Pu'er, I heard that you don't want to be an official, it has something to do with Shudi. I don't know what you saw and heard in Shu that year, which made you have such thoughts. ”

Zhuang Pu listened to the uncle's words, his heart was shocked, and his eyes suddenly became confused. As for what I saw and heard in Shu that year, I just said the truth, that Shu is rich, it can be described as the land of fish and rice, and the granary of the world, not as the wives think that Shu is "wild". The raiders with titles in the upper banners are pampered and free every day, and there are worse ones, that is, they do all kinds of evil. In the local area, the reputation of the raiders sent by the court and abroad is extremely bad. He was angry with his family that year, invited a few friends to go south to play, drove all the way to Shudi, and traveled to the Three Gorges into Kuimen, which can be described as a blissful trip. Who would have thought that there was also a murder in Shudi, and he almost took his life, if it wasn't for Mr. Guan and others to save him, Zhuang Pu would no longer be in the world at this moment. Naturally, Zhuang Pu now inherits the grace of dripping water, and the spring reciprocates, which is the reason. He had previously introduced to the old lady and others, saying that he was not very familiar with Mr. Guan, and he actually didn't dare to tell what happened in Shudi.

Seeing that Zhuang Pu's eyes were confused and silent, the guests were slightly embarrassed, and raised their glasses to several masters of the Zhuang Mansion.

Later, Lord Yuan said to Zhuang Yu: "I heard that the third prince of the house not only does a good job, but also knows natural theory. With such talent, I suggest that you should not neglect this entrance examination. How young does this have to be? The Queen Mother's 60th birthday, the proposed Enke will take the exam! It's only once in a hundred years! Just now, the second son said the foundation, yes, we just have the foundation, and we have literary talent, isn't it the icing on the cake? Don't be afraid of criticism! ”

Zhuang Qin felt that the guests praised his two sons too much, so he smiled and said: "The dog is rude, and the adults still praise him like this!" Besides, the Queen Mother's 60th birthday is in the year after tomorrow! It is rumored that Enke will take the exam, and there may be variables. If there is a great opportunity, you can love our lord more, he is also a very literate person. ”

Because of the mention of Uncle Zhuang, everyone moved their eyes to his face.

At this moment, Zhuang Ji was holding peanuts, shaking his head and eating a little wine, as if he didn't hear it, and the guests next to him pushed a cup and I helped the cup, and drank happily.

Seeing the kind words of the adults, Zhuang Jue sighed slightly, hooked his head to look at the wine in the cup, and poured half a word.

When the old men were refilling the cup, Judge came in from outside, panicked, and thought of the other end of the women's table, because he passed by the old man's table, it was not good to be ashamed, so he stopped and gave his hand to Zhuang Xi and others.

Zhuang Xi was Chaste's father-in-law, and when he saw his panicked appearance, he said strangely: "Shide, why don't you come in and sit?" I said, "Why don't I see you?" ”

Chaste smiled: "Father-in-law, there is a bit of a rush outside, so I put it aside for a while." I'm ......" gesture to Zhuang Hu and Cao's side, meaning to go over and speak.

But Zhuang Xi waved his hand again and again: "What's so anxious that you can get back and forth." There are other people in the house! Come on, come on, you also come to accompany a few uncles to have a drink. ”

Zhuang Xi beckoned to Chaste, but Chaste hesitated in every possible way, but it was difficult to refuse, so he passed.

Zhuang Lu knew that Juste was handling the affairs of the Accord, and seeing him so flustered, something must have happened.

Zhuang Lu took a bite of the wine glass worriedly, and looked sideways at Zhuang Hu and Cao's side slightly.

And the Cao family was also eating happily with the guests, Zhuang Hu looked at this side interestingly, but it was not easy to get up.

Justified had a few glasses of wine. Zhuang Xi asked him: "You don't have to go, you stay with you, it's just right!" ”

Justher didn't dare to disobey, only smiled and nodded.

At this time, it was already dark, and the wine was not over. Everybody is drunk.

At the right time, Zhuang Jue quietly got off the table and sat down at the old lady's table. When they got there, the old lady and others asked Zhuang Yu what the old men were talking about.

Zhuang Jue said: "Speaking of the queen mother's birthday in the year after the queen, there will be any Enke examination, and the lord's distinguished guests recommend me and the second brother to take the exam, and also recommend the eldest brother to go." ”

The old lady asked, "I think it's very good." So why don't you have more drinks with your guests? Thank you. Your lord is also walking in officialdom, why is there no news? I haven't heard of it either, so it can be seen that his heart is not as hot as outsiders. ”

Zhuang Jue pouted, and turned his head to look at Yu Qi.

Yu Qi raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Zhuang Yu.

While the old lady persuaded the drinking guests, Zhuang Ying accosted Yu Qi: "Sister, the Chinese New Year's Eve program mentioned in the afternoon, I will definitely be with you." You don't want me. ”

Yu Qi whispered: "Don't talk drunk!" ”

Zhuang Ji bit his lip and calmed down, but the old lady was afraid that he would get drunk after eating, so she hurriedly asked the girl to serve him soup. When the girl came over with the soup, Yu Qi turned her head sideways and whispered to him: "Later, you go and tell the second brother, I asked Miss Yi to invite Mr. Yao, and let Mr. Yao pick up Mr. Guan and Miss Yu." Eat and drink with peace of mind, and don't talk nonsense to make people unhappy. ”

Zhuang Ying was stunned after hearing this, and just knocked over the soup bowl brought by the girl.

After the old lady and the others were concerned, the county lord came over and said, "This kid has been shining after eating, and his clothes are dirty. Why don't you go back and change it yet! After a while, it got cold in my body. ”

The old lady responded: "Yes, yes." He also told the girl to prepare the lights and send Zhuang Ying back.

When Zhuang Jue heard Yu Qi speak, he was first shocked, then excited, and when he went out again, he nodded and smiled fiercely at Yu Qi to express his gratitude. Passing by Zhuang Pu's side, his fingers gently slid over his back and ripped off his braids.

Zhuang Pu turned his head to look at Zhuang Jue's blinking expression, knowing that he meant something.

When Zhuang Jue came out of the banquet hall, Zhuang Pu took the excuse to leave the table and hurriedly followed Zhuang Jue.

Seeing Zhuang Pu coming, Zhuang Jue took the lantern from the girl's hand and said to them, "Go back!" I'll go back by myself! ”

The girls are afraid of punishment and don't follow.

Zhuang Pu smiled: "With me!" Go back and wait! ”

In the end, Zhuang Pu made three or five rhetorical words, Enwei hooked up, and the girls blushed and hid their faces. Over, Zhuang Jue told Zhuang Pu what Yu had just said.

When Zhuang Pu heard this, he sighed: "I didn't expect Sister Qi to be such a person. ”

Zhuang Ying smiled: "Brother, what kind of person did you always think your sister was?" You are always cold and indifferent in the day, and you don't like to take care of others. Look, this time Sister Qi can help you by herself! ”

Zhuang Pu smiled and nodded.

Zhuang Jue said: "It just so happens that we should rush back now to see Mr. and Sister Ayu." My brother also did his best. ”

The brothers said as they hurried to Xifu.

Before leaving the East Mansion, a few people ran outside the path, carrying lanterns and swaying to this side. When I got closer, it was Si'er leading Wang Wu and Cai Tong.

Seeing this, Zhuang Pu stepped forward and grabbed Wang Wu with one hand and Cai Tong with the other, and said hatefully: "Little Wang Ba Lamb, you have no shadow when you have an accident today, what are you doing now?" ”

Wang Wu said with a hippie smile: "Master, isn't this just here to tell you?" ”

Zhuang Pu kicked Wang Wu and said, "What do you say?" Get out of here! ”

The rich boy trembled and said, "Master, spare us!" The wife and the eldest girl are much more ruthless than you, if we don't run, will we see you sometimes? Not to mention that I'm going to report back to you now. ”

Zhuang Pu said strangely: "What kind of letter?" ”

Cai Tong said: "The people of Accord are gone!" ”

After Zhuang Pu heard this, he was overjoyed, let go of the wealth boy, and went to pull up Wang Wu and pat the slush on his body for him.

Zhuang Ying couldn't help but be happy and said, "Brother! Then he asked the rich boy, "How soon or later will you find out what you don't see?" ”

Caitong scratched his head and thought, Wang Wukou was about to respond: "The eldest aunt told us to go over and see, we went and saw that the lights in the house were still on, but no one came in or out." I thought that the people who were waiting in it were not satisfied because they said they were going to get rid of my husband. Later, we felt that something was wrong, so we went to take a look, but we saw the servants lying in the house, and Mr. and Miss Ayu were gone. The eldest aunt said, let's go over and watch, what can we help, reach out and send them out later. I didn't expect this...... So...... We've got to go talk to my aunt. ”

After Zhuang Pu listened, he kicked Wang Wu again.

Wangwu fell to the ground, unable to stand up in pain.

Zhuang Pu said: "Eat things inside and outside!" Who's your grandfather? Hurry up and let the eldest aunt call you away! You have the courage to let your aunt be your master! Sensei came to see me with this face! Bastard! ”

Wang Wu hurriedly turned around and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy, and the rich boy also knelt down.

The two of them roughly said, "If we don't listen, the wife and the eldest girl will hand us over to the wife, and then we won't be able to serve the master." The eldest aunt said that if such a thing happens, we still have to hand it over to the yamen and ask about the crime, and then the government will excuse us, and we will be killed in the end. Master, we don't want to die! ”

Zhuang Pu chirped: "Let your mother's fart!" You don't steal, you don't touch, you don't burn, you don't kill or rob, whoever cuts off your head! Sling the bull! I don't want to see you guys anymore, get out! ! ”

Si'er on the side was afraid of making a big fuss, so he only promised to come over and persuade him, and said to Zhuang Pu: "Second master, don't be angry. How dare the two of them be disrespectful to you, they are just cowardly. Why should you be angry with them! ”

Zhuang Pu snorted, didn't take Si'er, and kicked down Wang Wu again: "Get out and beg for your life!" ”

He didn't care anymore, took Zhuang Yu's hand, and went straight back to Xifu.

On this side, Si'er still led Wang Wu and Caitong to the East Mansion to inform his eldest aunt Chaste. Because, Wang Wu and Caitong still saw a scene that they didn't tell Zhuang Pu, that is, they found that there was no one in Accord, chased after the back door, and saw a few masked black-clothed people dragging Ayu into the carriage not far from the door, presumably Mr. Guan was also in the carriage.

Naturally, what Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Yu thought of was that Yu Yang was looking for Mr. Yao, if they guessed correctly, if Mr. Guan and Ayu were missing, Mr. Yao must have taken them!

The two brothers hurried to Accord, and sure enough, as Wang Wucai Tong and the two said, Mr. and Ayu were no longer there, but the house was strange, and the maid who was serving Ayu was staggering in the house.

If Mr. Yao comes to pick up people, he can't hurt people, right?

The two brothers were full of doubts, and they worked together to help the servants get on the kang, and poured cold tea on their faces to make them wake up.

After the girl-in-law woke up, she hummed and sighed, and told Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Yu: "I heard a lot of footsteps, and I fainted in front of me." I don't know what knocked me on the head. In a daze, I saw someone carrying Mr. Guan away......"

Zhuang Ying shook his head and muttered silently: "Isn't it Mr. Yao?" No, you can't! Don't pay attention! ”
