Volume I, Chapter 144. The Qian Mansion solemnly welcomed the distinguished guests and the county to chat and relieve their defenses

In the Qian Mansion in Xiaolin Town, the subordinates were busy going in and out of the gate of the Qian Mansion, constantly busy. The housekeeper of the Qian Mansion on the side was shouting: "Today, the magistrate of Xinyang County is coming to visit us, and they will all work hard for me, the doors and walls must be wiped clean for me, and the ground must be cleaned spotlessly." ”

Qian Bufei walked out of the door, and when the housekeeper saw Qian Bufei, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master, you are dressed so stylishly!" It's going to be good right away. You go into the room and rest, and I'll let you know when you're done. ”

Qian Bufei was wearing a hat on his head, wearing a dark long robe, dressed very formally, looking at it, the courtyard that had been wiped as new as new, nodded with satisfaction, and asked, "How are the others prepared?" ”

The housekeeper said, "It's all ready, and a red blanket will be laid here in a while." There will be musicians on both sides of the red carpet, and you will stand at the gate to greet you in person. ”

"Good!"

A little guy ran over from a distance, bowed and said, "Master, the little one just saw that Jiang Zhixian has arrived at the entrance of the town, and it won't take two moments to get to our house." ”

Qian Bufei waved his hand and said, "Okay! Chamberlain! Let those who should go in go in, and those who should come out come out, and get ready to welcome your guests. ”

When the steward received the order, he immediately went into action. The cleaning staff were sent away, leaving only a few people to spread out the red carpet, and the musicians stood on both sides of the red carpet step by step. From a distance, he saw that the three people were riding horses and slowly walking towards this Qian Mansion, this housekeeper was naturally a person with eight faces, although he had not seen Jiang Zhixian, and the other three were all wearing civilian clothes, but the housekeeper saw at a glance that these three people were extraordinary, not like ordinary people, so he waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry up, blow up!" When the musicians on both sides heard this, they picked up the instruments in their hands and began to play.

A loud voice came, and Jiang Hong asked, "Uncle, what are you doing knocking at the door of the Qian Mansion?" ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Ah Hong, of course the money clerk used to greet us?" ”

Zhu Shuo smiled disdainfully and said, "I guess it's not the first time he's done this." ”

Jiang Zhixian reminded: "After a while, after we go in, we will all pay attention and act according to our plan." Jiang Hong and Zhu Shuo nodded. The three of them rode to the red carpet at the entrance of the Qian Mansion, got up and dismounted, Qian Bufei immediately strode over, saluted Jiang Zhixian and said, "Cao Min Qian Fei, meet Master Jiang." ”

Jiang Zhixian smiled slightly: "Outside of the Qian staff, the official just came here to visit my golden leaf niece, and I am really flattered by your grand welcome." ”

Qian Bufei said: "What did Lord Jiang say, you are the magistrate of our Xinyang County, how dare you slack off when you come to the cold house this year." ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Okay, don't be polite." I am not here to be a guest with you today, but I have come to see my niece, and if she is well, I will be relieved. ”

Qian Bufei said: "Master Jiang, just rest assured, everything is fine with Jin Ye here." ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Don't shout that Lord Jiang is long and short, since Jin Ye is my niece, she is now married to you, you call me uncle with her, and I am not taking advantage of you." ”

Qian Bufei was overjoyed and said, "This is very good, uncle, the younger son-in-law has offended a lot before, don't be surprised." ”

Jiang Zhixian nodded inadvertently and said, "I didn't know that you were Jin Ye's husband, if this relationship is in it, I naturally want to save you some face." Forget it, don't mention it, you should have seen these two too, this is my nephew Jiang Hong, this is my master Zhu said. Jiang Zhixian pointed to the two people behind him. Zhu said that he bowed to Qian Bufei and made a salute, while Jiang Hong had a swaggering attitude and said, "Qian Bufei, we meet again." ”

Qian Bufei knew that Jiang Hong was a simple-minded person, and he didn't want to worry about him, so he said with a smile: "Brother Jiang Hongxian, we also had a lot of misunderstandings before, don't take it to heart." ”

Jiang Hong snorted coldly and said, "Look at my mood." As he spoke, he strode into the gate of the Qian Mansion. The others were very puzzled when they saw Jiang Hong's behavior like this, and felt that this person was very rude. Sure enough, Jiang Zhixian reprimanded: "Jiang Hong! What the hell do you want! ”

Jiang Hong said with an innocent face: "Did I do anything?" ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Today, at the invitation of your sister Jin Ye, I came here to pay a visit, why are you so rude!" ”

Jiang Hong said: "Uncle, let's come to see Sister Jin Ye, not his husband, I just need to be polite to Sister Jin Ye." ”

"You!" Jiang Zhixian was trembling by Jiang Hong's anger! Seeing this, Qian Bufei hurriedly persuaded: "Uncle, don't be angry, I know that Brother Jiang Hongxian is still a little resentful of me. The so-called smile and hatred, when we have dinner for a while, I will have two drinks with him and make amends to him. ”

Jiang Zhixian said ashamedly: "This child's father has handed him over to me since he was a child, and I have also doted on him a little, so I have developed such an obedient and domineering character, don't be surprised." ”

Qian Bufei said: "Uncle, where do you say, we are all a family." Get on board. ”

Zhu said that he was holding three horses at the same time and asked, "It's okay to put this horse at the door of the Qian Mansion." ”

Qian Bu had to say proudly: "You can let the horse go at my door, don't dare to say anything else, here, no one dares to touch the things of my Qian Mansion!" ”

Zhu said: "Good! So he tied the three horses to the door of the Qian Mansion. Jiang Zhixian and Zhu said that they walked into the Qian Mansion together with Qian Bufei, and in the spacious front hall of the Qian Mansion, Jiang Hong was already sitting on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed, and said impatiently: "We are here, and no one will serve tea." ”

Jiang Zhixian's face was ugly, and he said, "Ah Hong! Put your legs down! What does it look like! Jiang Hong looked at Jiang Zhixian, put down his legs with a very reluctant expression, and sat on the chair.

Qian Bufei hurriedly ordered to his subordinates: "You guys, hurry up and serve tea to the guests." Ask for good tea! After speaking, he respectfully invited Jiang Zhixian to sit on the upper seat in the front hall. Jiang Zhixian didn't shirk either, and sat on the chair on the upper seat as a matter of course, and said, "What about my golden leaf niece?" ”

Qian Bufei said: "I know that Uncle you are coming, Jin Ye is dressed up in the room in the backyard, just for a while." ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Well, that's good." How long has this niece of mine been married to you? ”

Qian Bufei said: "It's been three years since I went back to my uncle." ”

Jiang Zhixian was surprised: "Three years? Do you have an heir? ”

Qian Bufei showed an embarrassed expression on his face, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Jiang Zhixian's face changed slightly, and he said: "Although I know that my niece is your side room, no one has said that the side room cannot give birth to children." Could it be that you don't like my niece and don't want to have children with her? ”

Qian Bufei waved his hand again and again and said, "No, no." ”

Jiang Hong teased on the side: "That's your wife in the main room won't let me." ”

Qian Bufei sighed lightly: "It's not." The problem is not with the gold leaf, but with me. ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Oh? What is the reason for that? ”

Qian Bufei said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I used to find someone to show me." Say that I am, although the branches are full of flowers without pollen, if they are green, they need to be inherited. ”

Jiang Zhixian stroked his beard and said, "That's it." Then you have to find a child from a good family. ”

Qian Bufei said: "I have been looking for so many years, but there is no suitable one. ”

Jiang Hong looked at Zhu Shuo with a puzzled expression and asked, "Master Zhu, what do they mean?" ”

Zhu said on the side: "Brother Jiang, you, you should read more." ”

Jiang Hong said: "If you don't say it, you won't say it, I don't want to know yet." When is it time to eat? I'm hungry! ”

Seeing Jiang Hong's shouting, Jiang Zhixian said, "What are you anxious about, your cousin Jinye hasn't come yet." Then he chatted with Qian Feifei again. Chatting and chatting, Qian Fei found that it was quite speculative to be able to chat with this Jiang Zhixian, and even had a feeling of hating to see each other late. After a while, Jin Ye came out of the backyard and looked at Jiang Zhixian and Qian Bufei chatting, Jin Ye didn't know what Jiang Zhixian was planning, so he didn't bother, just walked over slowly. Jiang Hong and Zhu said that after seeing Jin Ye, they nodded, and Jiang Hong said to Jin Ye as if he saw a savior: "Sister Jin Ye, you are here!" ”

Jiang Hong's voice naturally called Jiang Zhixian and Qian Buyu, who were having a good conversation. Jiang Zhixian turned around and looked at Jin Ye and said, "Jin Ye niece, you are here." ”

Jin Ye saluted very respectfully and said, "Uncle Jiang, my niece is late, I hope my uncle won't be surprised." ”

Jiang Zhixian laughed and said: "It is the nature of a woman's family to love beauty, and your careful dressing up is also to give face to my uncle, how can my uncle blame you." ”

Jiang Hong said: "Uncle, since Sister Jin Ye is here, let's eat!" ”

Jiang Zhixian said angrily: "You know how to eat!" ”

Qian Bufei said: "Okay, then let's have a banquet!" The housekeeper was already on standby not far away, and when he heard Qian Bufei's order, he immediately arranged for someone to set up the tables and chairs, and put a few plates of hors d'oeuvres and snacks, Jiang Zhixian, Jiang Hong, Zhu Shuo, Jin Ye and Qian Bufei all sat on the table.
