Chapter Eighty-Six: Dignitaries
Hua Juzi was right-hearted, and everyone saw that Aunt Taishou was also interested in him. Only Li Xun was provoked in person, and he had to force his temper to not attack, and he was so uncomfortable.
"Since this basin has the meaning of all-encompassing, and the nobles cherish talents, I naturally feel that the two should be one, so putting this basin upside down here, doesn't it mean that there are always some omissions in the sight of the nobles." Hua Ji saw that the old thing was not hindered, so he continued to talk nonsense here, "So I broke this pot, which is to open a world to the nobles, and let this light come in, no matter the pearl of rice, the end of the autumn, let the nobles see it clearly." ”
Everyone watched in amazement as Hua Juzi finished saying this, they had just seen his behavior, and they had forgotten his identity, thinking that he was a strong seed with some backbone. But listening to him righteously and strictly pull two unrelated things together, everyone came back to their senses, he is also a gangster in the wine field, how can there be any integrity that is not afraid of the powerful.
He was serious, and Aunt Taishou was also quite useful, and he even laughed: "What Mr. Hua said is quite reasonable. So this pot broke the top, and I found a talent like Mr. ”
After reviewing the past, he said "reward" to Zhixia, but Zhixia replied: "Miss, we didn't bring a lot of gold and silver with us, so I'll go back and get it." ”
Wen stopped her, and said directly to Hua Ji: "I came out in a hurry, so I won't reward it at the moment." Listening to the words of the gentleman, sure enough, there is talent in the chest and abdomen, I also have good wine that is not lost, and there are books, if the gentleman does not give up, it can be used by the gentleman. ”
When Hua Ji heard this, he didn't hide his pride at all, and hurriedly said something like "I am willing to drive for Mrs. Liu", and I should do it.
In this less than a moment, people like Hua Ji have jumped from homeless drunkards to the servants of Aunt Taishou and even doormen, and everyone has a little bit of a bad taste in their hearts, and some of them are shrewd and hurriedly congratulate them.
Then, Hua Ji was led by Zhixia to sit down not far from the old man, and then he was polite with everyone, and then drank a round of wine, that Hua Ji kept touting the old man, what "cherish talents" and "be kind and charitable", plus the deeds such as retaking Tongcheng, the old man was full of joy.
At this time, Li Xun's role had ended, and he was relaxed, but after all, he restrained his nature, and his face was always calm, so he simply drank by himself.
Everyone looked at it, originally wanted to get back some face for this Li Langjun, but when he found it, he put his face aside, and at this time, it made people feel that he was more out of favor and downcast.
Wen ignored him, and simply said in accordance with Hua Ji's praise: "Mr. Hua is right, I have just made some repairs without losing my home, and I am short of manpower at this time. ”
"What kind of manpower is the eldest lady missing?" Hua Ji asked, his title changed three times in a while, and he didn't care what others thought of him.
"The house is full of good wine, but no one comes to drink it. Delicacies are also available, and no one uses them. Wen said with a smile.
Hua Ji laughed and said, "This is not easy to do, all the dignitaries present in Tongcheng are my Tongcheng, can you still make the eldest lady bother?" ”
Everyone originally saw Hua Ji's situation, and they had already begun to think about it in their hearts, but they didn't expect that this kid was quite familiar with current affairs and sold his favor to them so quickly, so they each called "Mr. Hua", and also said to Wen Gu: "I will definitely find someone who can be used for Aunt Taishou."
What's more, in order to show sincerity, he even simply asked his aunt to send someone to his house at any time to pick up, and when he chose neutrality, he took the deed and took it away.
Now that this statement has been made, of course, I will not shirk it, but just respond to it.
However, although Zheng Tong was also at the banquet, he only talked to others, completely ignoring the excitement here.
Originally, he also thought this matter was ridiculous, but from the moment Hua Ji took the seat and touted something like "cherishing talents", he felt that this matter was unusual.
After Fang Yi finished a few words, he finally realized that this little lady was obviously looking for a servant and slave, maybe the people in the city would spread some rumors about her, but in fact, she was soliciting doormen.
openly recruiting talents in the midst of the war, but it was a taboo for the Southern Chu court.
Therefore, ordinary women avoid this kind of gossip about Li Langjun and Aunt Taishou, but she can just cover up this kind of gossip.
It's just that Zheng Tong still has two things that he can't think of, First, people like Hua Ji don't say that they are all over the city, but it's not difficult to find them carefully, why do you want to make such a big fuss? Second, this little lady who is not even twenty years old can really have such thoughts? Or is it Liu's idea? But Liu Zhu's courage is probably not as big as this little lady.
Zheng Tongyi was gossiping with the people around him, and at the same time thinking about these things in his heart. It wasn't until Wen Gu came up to him and called him that he reacted.
"What does Master Zheng think?" Wen Gu just stood in front of his table and said with a smile.
Zheng Tong hurriedly got up, his movements were still a little trembling, sighed, and said, "I'm old, I'm dizzy, and it's even more unclear if I drink a little wine." ”
Wen Gu smiled: "That's why I came over to ask Master Zheng again." ”
Zheng Tong really didn't hear what they said, so he had to say, "Please speak."
"You all allow me to go to each house to pick some people, and they should help me warm up the new house, I don't know what Master Zheng thinks?"
Zheng Tong thought to himself, this little lady doesn't know if she is really thick-skinned, or if she has performed like this, how can she find someone to ask for a gift in person. And it's not about things, it's about people.
It's not that Zheng Tong is distressed. His Zheng family has domestic servants and slaves, and like other families, even if his aunt doesn't say it, he wants to find an opportunity to send it.
It's just that this matter was brought up by Aunt Taishou herself, and it doesn't make sense to think about it.
How can you put other people's eyes and ears in your own house?
Zheng Tong thought like this in his heart, but hurriedly responded: "Mrs. Liu has instructions, we are naturally willing to be adults, if they can be selected to be an errand in Liu's mansion, it will also be a great blessing for them." ”
Wen was even happier to see that he should respond, and hurriedly said to the people around him: "Master Zheng has also responded, then it will be boring for me to shirk." I see that everyone is eating and drinking to their heart's content, so why don't we go and pick people now. ”
"Now?" Zheng Tong didn't expect her to say this, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"Is it inconvenient for Master Zheng?" Wen asked.
Zheng Tong couldn't think of any prevarication at this time: "It's not inconvenient......"
"That's fine, let's go to Master Zheng's mansion first."
After reviewing the past, Zhixia stepped forward to invite him, and the family members naturally followed. Zheng Tong had no choice but to leave the table.
