Chapter 61: Beauty is invited
Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng are world friends, both relatives of the Marquis of Qingyuan's hometown, and they came to the capital early in order to beat the bow race. did not live in the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, but found a small inn to live with. On weekdays, I come to Tang Mansion to talk and drink. Now there is no place to go for the Chinese New Year, and I come to Tang Tong from time to time, mainly because Tang Tong is single and bold, and sometimes he lives in Tang Tong's mansion when he is late, and there is no difference between him and his own house without worry.
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the two came to the Tang Mansion by appointment, and when they were chatting happily, Lao Jing came to report that Miss Lan Er had visited. Tang Tong couldn't help laughing, "Now our brother has something to do!", the two knew that Miss Lan Er was a person, and she would never have good words, she would definitely be domineering, and the happy gathering between the brothers would be disrupted.
Yang Weibiao half-jokingly teased, "It's not my business with Brother Zhang, Brother Tang, you have to be careful!", Zhang Yicheng couldn't help laughing out loud as soon as these words came out.
When Tang Tong came out to the door of the living room, Lan Tingmei shouted from afar: "Tang Qian's New Year is auspicious!", saying that hugging his fists is a salute, and there is no trace of femininity at all.
Tang Tong also saluted: "Happy New Year!" You see! As soon as Miss Lan came, she didn't see the sun for a long time, and the sun was immediately in the sky.", at this time, Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng followed, and hurriedly congratulated Lan Tingmei.
Lan Tingmei was moved, "I thought that the head of the Hou of Qingyuan and his gang was Chen Dingxian, but it seems that he is going to be replaced!" The two of them said yes?", and went straight to the three of them.
Tang Tong hurriedly corrected, "Miss Lan Er laughed, the two brothers also came to congratulate, just arrived a little early. It has nothing to do with Chen Shao.", then stretched out his hand, "Please inside!", and welcomed Lan Tingmei into the living room.
Tang Tong wanted to invite Lan Tingmei to sit, Lan Tingmei just looked around, and after a while, she suddenly spoke, "I have something to tell Tang Qian!"
Tang Tong immediately stopped, "I have no personal affairs with Miss Lan Er, you can come and listen.", Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng had no intention of leaving, and stopped when they heard Tang Tong say this. Although Lan Tingmei was reluctant, if she insisted on driving them away, nothing would become something, so she had to acquiesce to the two of them.
"I don't know if Tang Qian has time, can you accompany me to do something?", Lan Tingmei cut into the topic.
Tang Tong looked at Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng, so it was difficult, "If there are guests, do you want to change the day.".
Lan Tingmei didn't take the two of them seriously, walked straight to the two, and said sharply: "You can't always bother your friends, isn't it time to leave.", I heard that Miss Lan Er can't afford to provoke her, who doesn't hide away.
Zhang Yicheng pretended to have just understood, "I just want to leave, so I won't bother!", said and dragged Yang Weibiao, signaling to leave quickly. Yang Weibiao didn't mean to leave, and said with a smile: "Since it's an errand, it's better to have multiple helpers, why don't you take the two of us?"
Without waiting for Lan Tingmei to answer, Tang Tong said briskly: "Okay! That way, you don't lose hospitality."
Lan Tingmei also felt that it was a proper way, and nodded a little reluctantly, "You can only go with one person, you two can discuss it.", Zhang Yicheng has already married, and he doesn't want to get involved in the private affairs of his children, so he left first.
The three of them walked on foot and entered the inner city from Chongwu Gate. Walking all the way along Xizhi Street, even Yang Weibiao felt that he was going to the whole banquet. After entering the full banquet, Lan Tingmei didn't want Xiao Er to lead the way, and went upstairs to a small private room.
Lan Tingmei said to the two, "You wait first!", said that she opened the door first, and then immediately closed the door, but no one inside saw it at all, Tang Tong and Yang Weibiao had to wait on the side.
Tang Tong didn't focus too much, calmly didn't speak to Yang Weibiao, and waited patiently. At this time, the door opened, Lan Tingmei did not come out, and it was Jianchun who came out.
Jian Chun saluted Tang Tong, "Mr. Tang Qian! See you again.".
Tang Tong was not surprised, speculating that it should be summer and autumn inside, how could there be no note." Hello Miss Jianchun! ”.
"You can only go in alone.", and then said to Yang Weibiao: "You and I are staying here!"
Jian Chun found that Yang Weibiao was wrong, and it turned out that Jian Chun's beauty made Yang Weibiao stunned all of a sudden, and looked at himself with a blank eye. Jian Chun knew why, but he didn't expect that this person didn't have half of Tang Tong's concentration, and he was very angry and shouted: "Did you hear it!" Otherwise, get out of here!".
Yang Weibiao immediately woke up, he didn't see it on the first day of junior high school, but it was so beautiful at close range today, and he lost his temper for a while. Confused, he replied, "It's me who was rude!" Ashamed!", he looked at Tang Tong embarrassedly, and his face couldn't help but turn red.
Tang Tong smiled at Jianchun very elegantly, and said apologetically: "Miss Jianchun, don't see outside, although my brother is a little rude, but he doesn't have bad intentions, don't worry!", said and pushed the door open and went in, and closed the door again.
As Tang Tong guessed, there were only two people, Lan Tingmei and Xia Xunqiu, and four dishes were ordered on the table. Lan Tingmei was still sitting, Xia Xunqiu stood up and saluted, "Lord Tang! It's a presumptuous occasion to call you here for the New Year's Day, please take a seat!".
Tang Tong waved his hands very politely, "Miss Xia is polite!" If I had known that you had invited me, I would have come early.".
As soon as Lan Tingmei heard Tang Tong's words, she became angry, and immediately reproached: "If I invited you, you won't come?".
Tang Tong responded very tactfully, "Then I'll go to the Yunyang Marquis Mansion first and wait for you in advance, and come together.", this was flattery, which made Lan Tingmei have nothing to say, and it also made Xia Xunqiu understand Tang Tong's sophistication, and his face changed very quickly.
Returning to the topic, Tang Tong asked with interest: "Miss Xia invites you to more than just eat!".
Really smart people speak unreservedly, to fit the summer and autumn and character. Stretched out his hand again and said quietly: "Lord Tang, please take a seat!" Don't be in a hurry for a while.", the cultivation is not generally high, compared to Lan Tingmei, it is really a heaven and an underground.
Tang Tong felt something all of a sudden, and couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart, maybe it was because the two of them were too polarized. Tang Tong sat down slowly, and after Xia Xunqiu sat down, "It's not necessary to say something like thanks, it's my mistake that caused trouble to Miss Xia.".
Xia Xunqiu smiled elegantly and said with relief: "Lord Tang is really careful, in addition to thanking, I want to ask for advice again, I don't know if I can teach again?", Xia Xunqiu's eyes were staring at Tang Tong, without any distractions.
This made Tang Tong a little uneasy, and said a little apologetically: "Don't dare! In fact, I'm also a layman in terms of feelings, sometimes it seems like a good idea, but I will also do bad things with good intentions, and I dare not make a mistake, please forgive me!".
Tang Tong blocked the topic in one bite, which surprised Xia Xunqiu and Lan Tingmei. Lan Tingmei couldn't help but stand up, "We kindly invite you, just like this, what kind of intentions are you!".
Tang Tong did not hesitate, and replied very quickly, "I am already poor in donkey skills, and I have no prevarication.".
Xia Xunqiu knew that Lan Tingmei was an acute child, and knew that Tang Tong would not say it lightly. He pushed her and motioned for Lan Tingmei to sit down. turned to Tang Tong and said: "Then let's start the banquet first, and don't talk about this trouble.".
Lan Tingmei didn't understand Xia Xunqiu's intentions, and she lost her temper, "What to eat, we don't just invite him to eat.", said that she poured a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp, a heroine among women, it seems that she is really angry.
Tang Tong also poured a glass of wine, and it was also dry. slapped the wine glass on the table very heavily, and said in a long and heavy voice: "Marriage is the order of the parents, especially the persistence of King Yu, I can't do anything.".
This is Tang Tong's sincere words, and it is also very clear. Even if Lan Tingmei was willful, how could Xia Xunqiu not understand, and sighed, "Lord Tang is right, how can the royal family be offended, it is difficult for me to be Lord Tang.", the words were full of sadness, like a lost deer, with nowhere to confide in infinite sadness, and tears overflowed in his eyes in an instant.
Not only did Tang Tong see it, but Lan Tingmei couldn't help but pat Xia Xunqiu with her hand and comforted: "There will always be a way!" Isn't there still me?", the relationship between the two is extraordinary, and only Lan Tingmei can heal the wounds in Xia Xunqiu's heart.
Xia Xunqiu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to Lan Tingmei with a smile: "It's okay!" It's me who is too fragile, just wait! Although that smile comes from the heart, it can't hide the infinite sadness in my heart, and it looks even more worrying.
Lan Tingmei was even more worried, the corners of her eyes turned red, and she immediately covered them with her hands. Xia Xunqiu saw it, sobbed and said, "I'm just better, and you're here. We all have to be strong!".
Maybe she had never experienced such a scene, Lan Tingmei hugged Xia Xunqiu and whimpered, originally to comfort each other, not wanting both of them to be caught in it, so that the scene got out of control. The two of them also burst into tears, and they almost cried.
At this time, Tang Tong couldn't help it, and said loudly: "It's really a woman's heart, you don't have to care about anyone, just rely on your own heart!", stood up as he spoke, with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.
The first to ask was Lan Tingmei, who asked sharply, "What do you mean?".
Tang Tong was also anxious at this time, and the words came out of his mouth all of a sudden, "Raw rice is cooked and cooked, who can help me!".
Lan Tingmei and Xia Xunqiu were stunned when they heard it, is this something that can be done? looked at Tang Tong with a blank eye, and thought carefully, isn't this a way, the two looked at each other, and they were both wandering.
Tang Tong explained: "There is no road ahead, only to hit forward hard. The simplest way is also the most effective, you have to think clearly!", his eyes were full of anticipation.
Lan Tingmei agrees with this kind of directness, but it is Xia Shunqiu who suffers, so it is naturally difficult to express her position. Seeing that Xia Xunqiu was also puzzled, he also moved randomly and scolded: "What the hell did you come up with!" It's not a good bird at first glance!".
Tang Tong seemed to understand, and he also talked about the topic, "I am also in a hurry to go to the doctor, whether it is in a blink of mind, I said the wrong thing, I'm sorry!"...
Xia Xunqiu did not object, nor did he acquiesce. just said lightly, "It's not to blame Tang Qian, I forced it, sit down!", regardless of whether Tang Tong sat down or not, he took a glass of wine and took a sip.
Lan Tingmei glared at Tang Tong, and also raised her wine glass and said to Xia Xunqiu, "Sister Xia! Just if he didn't say, let's think of another way", Xia Xunqiu still didn't squeak.
