Chapter 51: A guest at my father-in-law's house
Lu Jinfu was taken aback and asked, "My lord, Lord Xie is your future father-in-law?" ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Almost, it's half an old man!" ”
Lu Jinfu swallowed his saliva, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "I remember that I was carrying a five-pound big grass carp and holding a good daughter on the altar. Speaking of wine, I myself especially recommend the daughter of Drunken Xianju to adults, the aroma of the wine can float to four miles away after opening, and the taste is good, and the stamina is enough! It's just a little more expensive! ”
Wang asked: "Brother Lu is a good drinker?" ”
Lu Jinfu said: "I'm a rough person, reckless and impulsive, and that's just this little hobby." ”
Wang asked: "I think Brother Lu is just rude on the outside, but he is a delicate person on the inside. If it weren't for Brother Lu to take care of me today, I wouldn't have been able to successfully complete the work assigned to me by Lord Liu. ”
Lu Jinfu scratched his head, glanced at Wang Qian, and then laughed and said, "My lord really exalts me so much!" Delicacy has nothing to do with me at all. ”
Wang Zhen asked again: "Brother Lu, if the other party is a rich and noble family and only takes wine to the door, will the souvenir be too light?" ”
Lu Jinfu said with a difficult face: "Lord Hui, this subordinate is not clear, so it's not good to talk nonsense." ”
Wang Zhen returned to Jianwei Mansion and came to Liu Yi's study, where Wang Zhen presented all the relevant documents and returned Liu Yi's small seal.
Liu Yi checked the paperwork and said, "You did a good job!" Your public study is next door, and you have a smart mind to help me deal with the criminal affairs first. I have ordered the pending criminal cases in this house to be moved to your room, and you should start with the old cases and see if you can find new clues from them. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask the Gong Cao of the house. ”
Wang Zhen bowed his head and saluted, "Okay, my lord!" ”
Liu Yan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you go and see your room!" ”
Wang Zhen hesitated for a moment and asked, "My lord, I don't know if I can't ask you a personal question?" ”
Liu Yi suddenly became interested and said, "You ask!" ”
Wang asked: "If the future father-in-law of the adult invites the adult to his home, what kind of souvenir will the adult bring?" ”
Liu Yi smiled and said, "So you want to go to the future father-in-law's house?" You don't have to be too nervous, you can buy what he likes and do what he likes; If you don't know, just bring something with you, not empty-handed! ”
Wang Zhen thanked Liu Yi and returned to the room, thinking while flipping through the case file. After getting off work, Wang Zhen hurried home to change into civilian clothes and rode to the Drunken Immortal Residence. The drunken immortal residence is not far from Wang Zhen's home, and it is also a stop by Wuyi Lane. Zuixianju is a winery that only sells wine and does not serve dine-in drinks. Wang Zhen parked his horse and walked inside. Drunken Immortal Residence has a good business, and at the moment the two guys are greeting five or six guests, and they are very busy.
Seeing Wang Qian, the shopkeeper personally greeted him and asked with a smile: "Guest officer, I am the shopkeeper of the shop, what do you need?" ”
Wang Zhen felt strange, the shopkeepers of other shops were middle-aged greasy men with oily heads and fat ears and big bellies, but the shopkeepers of Drunken Xianju were sturdy men in their thirties.
Wang Zhen looked at the shopkeeper and felt rude, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The shopkeeper is sorry, I'm distracted!" Please give me two good daughters on the altar of red. ”
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "The guest officer doesn't know, my daughter is our signboard here, and a jar costs five taels of silver." ”
The king's quality is staggering, in terms of the price at that time, five taels of silver and a jar of wine are indeed expensive. Wang Zhen said while taking out the silver: "Shopkeeper, this wine is so expensive!" ”
The shopkeeper took the silver tael and said with a smile: "The guest officer knows that it is worth the money after drinking it." ”
Wang Zhen said: "Since the shopkeeper is so respectful, I really want to taste it." ”
When the shopkeeper personally went to the inner room to bring out two jars of wine, Wang Zhen was sure that he was a practitioner. Wang Zhen secretly laughed: I watched a criminal lawsuit for an afternoon today, and I got rid of the occupational disease. Who stipulates that Lian Jiazi can't be a shopkeeper, now it's a troubled time, and it's really hard to mix without any self-defense skills.
Wang Zhen took the wine and thanked the shopkeeper, tied the two jars of wine and hung them on horseback, beat the horse and went to Wuyi Lane. When he arrived at Xie's Manor, after the report, Wang Zhen was brought into an inner hall with two jars of wine.
Xie An and Xie Daoyun were already sitting upright on the cushions and waiting. Xie Daoyun saw that Wang Zhen was a little funny carrying two jars of wine, and couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering. Wang Zhen also felt like a delivery person, so he had to smile awkwardly at her. Xie An didn't have these careful thoughts, and warmly beckoned Wang Zhen to step forward.
Wang Zhen stepped forward and put down the two jars of wine, and said: "Wang Zhen is shallow, lonely and unheard, and he really can't think of any souvenirs, so he bought two jars of wine casually, and I hope that the adults will not dislike it." ”
Xie An smiled: "Baume and Mercier is good wine." Wang, your gift is very elegant! ”
Wang Zhen was a little embarrassed and said, "Where! Where! Thank you for rounding the field for me! ”
Xie An ordered the servant to put away the wine, and beckoned the king to take a seat, saying: "There are few people today, so I will have a banquet in this small room, and the place is smaller and more atmospheric."
Wang Zhen saw that Xie Daoyun was already happy when he saw Xie Daoyun sitting opposite, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes! The place is smaller, sit closer, and the atmosphere is more harmonious! ”
Xie Daoyun looked at him with a smile.
Xie An asked, "Wang Qian, how long have you been working under Lord Liu?" ”
Wang Zhen turned to Xie An and said, "Back to my lord's words, counting today, it is two days." ”
Xie An asked, "What official position do you hold?" ”
Wang asked: "Fu Peng." ”
Xie An said: "Lord Liu asked you to be the governor of Jianwei Mansion from the beginning, and I appreciate you very much!" ”
Wang Zhen explained: "I only did it today, and I was a martial artist yesterday. ”
Xie An felt funny and asked with a smile, "Huh?" What the hell is going on? ”
Wang Zhen said: "My lord, it is like this! I met Lord Liu in Happy Square, and was later brought back to Jianwei Mansion by Lord Liu to be a military official. Yesterday, I made some efforts to arrest Fang Lu, and I was unusually promoted to Fu Peng by Lord Liu. ”
Xie An said in surprise: "I'll just say how Lord Liu caught someone so quickly, it turns out that Fang Lu was captured by you!" Lord Liu is really unique and has the ability to recognize people! ”
Wang Zhen nodded in agreement: "Yes, thanks to Lord Liu for giving me the opportunity!" ”
Xie Daoyun listened to the conversation between the two with a smile on the side, looking at her future husband with appreciation.
Xie An said in a rather approving tone: "Work hard, being a subordinate official in the yamen is a good way, not only to be familiar with government affairs, but also to train yourself, which will be of great help to your future career." Xie Yuannu and Xie Lang, whom you saw last time, are now also subordinate officials in other yamen. ”
Wang Zhen nodded and said, "Thank you for your teachings!" ”
Xie An asked, "Who are you Zhang Xuan?" After he was busy with your marriage, he ordered the matchmaker and the housekeeper to send a bride price and ask for Daoyun's Geng post yesterday, not only with dedication, but also with generosity. ”
