Chapter 152: Whispering in the middle of the night
The dinner was very lively, because in addition to the Chinese New Year, there were more people today. Today is not suitable for a table in the front hall and a table in the back hall like during the New Year, but it is indeed a little inconvenient for everyone to sit and eat together.
In the end, I coincidentally remembered the bead curtain I saw when I went to Liu's house, and said that large families use bead curtains to separate men and women.
Xiao Feng thought so, but he never thought that he was a big family, let alone that his family would need this thing, so he didn't prepare at all.
In the end, An Qingyue, who was the most familiar on the street, found a passing catcher and asked him to buy a few in the shop that sold bead curtains, of course, the money was from Xiao Feng.
The dinner was set up in the back hall because it was closer to the large kitchen. Five beaded curtains are lined up, plus a screen, to divide the room into translucent and opaque parts.
Men and women don't see each other, but they can toast each other through the beaded curtain, which is very interesting. An Qingyue originally refused to sit at the women's table, and the reason was very reasonable: she showed her face on the street all day long, are you still afraid of men looking at it?
But Xiao Feng whispered, and she obediently ran to the woman's table, and the posture of running over was a little different.
"Do you want Zhang Wuxin to think that you are a tough female catcher or a beautiful girl?" Zhang Wuxin didn't feel it, but just looked at his sister's back with concern.
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Feng noticed.
"Is my junior sister injured in her waist and leg while practicing? Why do you look at the waist and legs when you run, and you still twist around? Xiao Feng almost sprayed Zhang Wuxin in the face with a sip of wine.
Qi Jiguang looked a little worried, seeing that everyone was happy, he didn't say anything, but Xiao Feng noticed it.
"What's wrong with you? If you have something to say, there are no outsiders. In addition to the Qi family's master and servant and Zhang Wuxin, there was only Wang Tuiguan, because Dad Lan insisted on guarding the door, on the grounds that Qi An was old.
Xiao Feng's words made Wang Tuiguan's heart hot, although he thought he was Xiao Feng's own person, but whether Xiao Feng really recognized him or not, he was not sure, and now he was finally down-to-earth.
"Brother Xiao, I went to see Brother Hu the day before yesterday, and he said that he had already made a break and asked to go to Taiyuan. But Banzai has been unwell for the past few days, and he hasn't had a court meeting yet. And the rumors from the cabinet seem to want to transfer Brother Hu to the coast. Xiao Feng picked up a piece of beef and chewed it slowly, and no one at the table dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing him.
On the contrary, the woman's table didn't know the situation and was still very happy. Xiao Feng remembered that Hu Zongxian had indeed achieved fame in the coastal areas, but the result of the word test was to let him go to Taiyuan, and there must be some problems here.
Xiao Feng has a lot of trust in Cangjie Tianshu, and can gain a foothold in this era, in addition to his own wisdom, he almost has to rely on word measurement, he doesn't believe in Tianshu, who else can he trust?
"You tell Hu Zongxian and ask him to re-submit a letter, just say that he asked me to test the words, and I told him to go to Taiyuan to share the country's worries." Qi Jiguang was taken aback, with Xiao Feng's current identity, it was okay to make friends with ordinary officials, but Hu Zongxian was the inspector of the imperial history with the right to take over.
This official position is said to be a civilian official, but if something happens to the main general, he can take over the local military power, so he can be regarded as half a military general.
What's more, the Xuanda Line is the front line, and it is so close to the capital, so Qiu Luan and Hu Zongxian are the border generals who belong to the defense line of the capital.
It has always been a taboo for the minister of the inner court to make friends with the border generals in private! What's more, if you communicate in private, the emperor will trust you, and it won't be good.
You said it blatantly, didn't it make the emperor embarrassed?
"Brother Xiao, is this appropriate?"
"You just tell Hu Zongxian like that, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, just do it." At this time, Wangcai rushed in from the door and rushed to Qi Jiguang's legs.
Wangcai is the only guy in Xiao Mansion other than Xiao Feng who can run around in the front and back halls. Because Zhang Wuxin is dedicated to practicing martial arts and is generally interested in dogs, in the front yard, the closest person to it is Qi Jiguang.
Qi Jiguang likes dogs, is very indulgent to Wangcai, and strongly recommends that everyone leave a small flap door in their house to facilitate Wangcai's entry and exit.
Because there is a Jinyi guard outside the Xiao Mansion, and there is Zhang Wuxin inside, there is no need to worry about security, not to mention the small door that Wangcai needs, it is impossible for an individual to pass through, so Xiao Feng did not object.
Wangcai is obviously older now than when he first came, and it is estimated that he has entered puberty, and anyone who catches it is a harassment.
Now, after taking the meat and bones thrown down by Qi Jiguang in one bite, after thinking about it, he still couldn't restrain his impulse, kept Qi Jiguang's legs, and began to exercise.
Qi Jiguang scolded with a smile and kicked this little dot away with a gentle kick. Wangcai rolled on the ground in disappointment, eager to try at Xiao Feng's legs.
Xiao Feng glared at Wangcai, he usually didn't interact much with Wangcai, and Wangcai was still afraid of him, so he whimpered and retreated.
Look at Zhang Wuxin, obviously can't be provoked, Qi An, who is older than the bones in his mouth, Wangcai ran to the woman's territory with the bones in his mouth and passed the bead curtain.
Then there were screams and laughter on the side of the bead curtain, mixed with Zhang Yunqing's annoyed reprimand.
"Wangcai, you're so ashamed!" Wang Yingxiang gasped and laughed while gently kicking Wangcai with her foot.
"Sister Yunqing, my family used to have dogs, but I have never seen such a scoundrel as Wangcai, did you teach it?" Zhang Yunqing was a little panicked by this sudden soul torture, for fear that Xiao Feng next door would believe it when he heard it.
"Nonsense, how could I ...... Well, when Wangcai is at home, he follows my father......" In a joyful laughter, dinner was over, An Qingyue pulled Zhang Wuxin and said a few words, and then took Zhang Wuxin away.
Zhang Wuxin shouted to Xiao Feng before leaving: "Don't leave the door for me." Xiao Feng nodded, with Zhang Wuxin's light skills, he really looked down on him a little bit.
He can rush to the three-meter-high wall with a single run, which is even better than the parkour masters Xiao Feng has seen in his later life.
Of course, the premise is that the secret sentinels of Jinyiwei all know Zhang Wuxin, otherwise I am afraid that when he is halfway through the run, dozens of hidden weapons will fly out from various dark corners.
Then Lao Wang also said goodbye, called his daughter, and asked her to go home with him. Qiaoqiao hurriedly ran out and declared: "Sister Yingxiang is drunk, she can't take the car, she will vomit." Lao Wang frowned, looking like he didn't trust Qiaoqiao very much.
"How much alcohol did she drink, how could she be drunk?" Qiaoqiao gestured with her hand to a huge bowl.
"So much!" Lao Wang was shocked: "Won't it?" How could she have that much to drink? Zhang Yunqing's voice came from inside.
"Yingxiang, wake up, wake up, you're just drinking a bowl of mash fish soup, won't you?" Then came Wang Yingxiang's confused voice.
"No, dizziness, nausea, I can't move, I'm going to vomit when I move." Then a very small voice that gritted his teeth could only be heard by Zhang Wuxin, who had deep internal strength.
"Sister Yunqing, you dare to be nosy, I will strangle you in the bed at night." Although Lao Wang was very suspicious, he couldn't be sure if his daughter had really drunk too much, so he could only stand in place awkwardly, or Qiao Niang came out and made a final decision.
"Yingxiang can stay for two days if she wants to, and it doesn't matter if the three little sisters live together." Wang Tuiguan knew that all the guarantees made by his daughter at home had failed, but he couldn't settle accounts with his daughter at this time, so he had to say goodbye to Xiao Feng with a wry smile.
When she returned home, she was naturally complained by her mother again, and Wang Tuiguan comforted her with a wry smile.
"Our daughter's thoughts, we both know it, and it's not impossible to stop it, but my daughter's temper is actually quite stubborn, and it's difficult to change what she recognizes."
"But the daughter of the dignified six-rank Shuntianfu pusher, does she really want to be a concubine for others?" The lady of the Wang family was very melancholy.
Wang Tuiguan's wry smile was even more helpless.
"If it's really a concubine, I can accept it. I'm afraid that Xiao Feng is hanging like this, and my daughter is so infatuated, I'm afraid that it will be consumed so inexplicably, which is really unacceptable to me. The lady of the Wang family bit her lip and came up with an idea.
"Master, no matter what you say, you are also a six-rank pusher, although our family is much worse than Xiao Gongzi's family, but he has a life-saving grace for you, and he is not an ordinary friend. Can you make this matter clear and let Xiao Gongzi give him a name? Wang Tuiguan was silent for a long time, and finally straightened his waist.
"I was going to play for him, but I didn't plan to bring you with me. Since Xiang'er is so persistent, I'll find an opportunity to make it clear to Master Xiao. If he really doesn't have this heart, then no matter how infatuated Xiang'er is, we have to cut off this thought for her. If you want to come, Lord Xiao will definitely help! The lady of the Wang family was overjoyed, and she looked at her husband much more majestic than usual.
Women look at men like this, not only to see your appearance and figure, but also to see whether you are responsible, whether you are worth relying on.
The lady of the Wang family dimmed the oil lamp very darkly, then took off her coat and put it on the chair at the head of the bed.
"Master, this is my newly bought belly pocket for the New Year, do you think it looks good?" Wang Tuiguan has spent Chinese New Year's Eve at Xiao Feng's house since he came out of prison.
After returning home, the daughter ran around, and the intimacy with the lady was sneaky, when did you have this kind of unscrupulous two-person world?
Seeing that his wife was still charming under the swaying lights, the pink belly pocket brought out the girlish shyness, and she deliberately covered half of her side with a quilt, looming.
Wang Tuiguan jumped forward, farther than Zhang Wu's heartbeat.
"It's good-looking, you're right, I'll do whatever you ask me to do!" At this time, Xiao Feng was in his room, his eyes were red and he was approaching Qiao Niang, his face was full of crazy desire, and he was even more eager than Lao Wang.
Qiao Niang's whole body trembled, trying to calm herself.
"Master, don't make a sound, I'll do whatever you ask me to do."
