Xu Ling went back to tell his father-in-law about this, Gu Litian said: "Zhao Zhen is smart when he is a child, his whole family provides him with education, and they all have expectations for him. Their family is cautious, so if they don't associate with us, you can go and entertain other guests. ”

Xu Ling nodded, the old man's thoughts are similar to his, there are indeed some Zhao family members in the original book who are very cautious about Zhao Zhen's reputation, even if there is a lot of trouble in the family, they must hide it and not let people outside see the jokes.

In order to pave the way for Zhao Zhen's career.

Thinking about it like this, the Zhao family is still forbearing.

But this also fulfilled Xu Ling's thoughts, he didn't like the original heroine Gu Yao, and he didn't have the intention of having more dealings with such people, people on both sides went their own way, and the well water did not interfere with the river water, which was good.

Turning his head, Xu Ling put this matter in his mind and went to the courtyard to entertain the guests.

The tables and chairs in the courtyard are borrowed from all the families in the village, who comes to eat and bring their own benches, help the old and the young, some families come to two or three, but it is not in vain, some people bring gift money, some can't take out gift money to take things, in short, they will not come empty-handed.

There are also people who simply come to help early, washing and chopping vegetables, and Xu Ling is not at a loss for this meal.

Xu Ling set up a table outside the courtyard of the new house, placed pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and invited Fan Shiqing to sit here.

"What is a cat? What is that called? Which cat again? The old man listened to these strange names, his mind was full of question marks, and he couldn't write for a while.

Xu Ling was guarding beside him, just taking the opportunity to combine the person's name and face accordingly.

The man smiled innocently and said embarrassedly: "I haven't read a book, how do I know what a cat is called?" My father gave it to me, saying that when my mother gave birth to me, there was a cat barking outside. ”

Fan Shiqing smiled dumbly, "That's what a cat is." As he spoke, he wrote three black letters on a blank piece of paper.

He told the cat to poke his head and look: "It turns out that my name is written like this, you are really good readers!" ”

Don't look at the more than 100 households in Lianhuawanzi, the literacy rate is estimated to be less than 3 percent, and many people are illiterate and have little opportunity to contact readers.

Now I saw Fan Shiqing sitting at the door keeping accounts, being able to write, and recognizing people's names, and they all came over to see it curiously.

Old man Fan patiently told them the origin of their names.

"Your name is the bench, and you are the bench you sit on."

"Your name is Erya? How do you call a man Erya? Oh... It turned out to be a duck's duck, your eldest brother's name is Big Duck? You also have a younger brother named Three Ducks? ”

Xu Ling held back a serious smile on the side.

Sometimes when he heard people call each other names, he automatically made up the beautiful words in his brain, but he didn't expect the real name to be so funny.

Once again, I'm glad that the original owner's father who died early is really good at naming names.

Gu Litian also came here to stand and watch for a while, Xu Ling saw his father-in-law, and asked curiously: "Dad, how did you come up with the name of the eldest brother?" ”

Gu Litian didn't even think about it: "The beams that build the house!" ”

Xu Ling snorted, immediately thought of Gu Yu, and asked with a bad premonition in his heart, "What about my daughter-in-law?" ”

"Stool!"

Xu Ling: "......" might as well not ask.

However, the name of the eldest girl is also arbitrary, the original owner is not particular, this name is okay when the child's nickname is okay, and you have to consider it carefully when you name it.

At this moment, Li Dayuan's voice suddenly sounded: "Brother Ling! The guest you asked me to pick up has been received! ”

Xu Ling hurriedly looked over, only to see that Li Dayuan was followed by two people, one was Sun Baoyao who he had invited, and the other he didn't know.

The man had high cheekbones, a face like a red door, a tall figure, a yellow horsewhip in his hand, and a government hunting suit on his body.

As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere suddenly tightened, and everyone's voices became quieter, and Gu Litian walked behind Xu Ling, also a little nervous.

Sun Baoyao hurriedly laughed loudly and said: "Brother Xu, your housewarming banquet is really lively, this is my master, I just happened to have nothing to do today, so I begged for a bowl of wine with me, you won't blame you, right?" ”

"Haha, Brother Sun's master, I should also call Uncle if I am cheeky, I only hate that I didn't come to the door to invite in person, where do I dare to blame?" Xu Ling stepped forward and saluted the red-faced man, "Dare to ask your uncle's surname?" Please also come inside for a cup of hot tea. ”

The red-faced man is also a good-natured man, pulled Xu Ling to get up, and said with a bold smile: "I'm just hungry for wine, I heard Baoyao say that your house has a housewarming banquet, this is a little bit of my caution, you have to accept it!" ”

The red-faced man's name is Yang Tao, he is a particular person, the people in the village only pay ten cents for a salute, and as soon as he makes a move, it is sixty cents, Xu Ling hurriedly asked Fan Shiqing to record it in the account, and invited him and Sun Baoyao to enter the house and sit on the upper seat.

Xu Lingyuan thought that Sun Baoyao would come alone today, and specially reserved a place for him, but he didn't expect Sun Baoyao to bring his master.

Entering the courtyard, Sun Baoyao explained to the people in the village: "I am a friend of Brother Xu Lingxu, I came from afar to drink a glass of wine, everyone eats and drinks well, don't be afraid!" ”

The people in the village saw Xu Ling and Sun Baoyao hooking shoulders and walking very closely, and slowly put their minds at ease.

"Xu Ling, this bastard, when did he hook up with the yacha?"

"Shhhh He is also called a bastard, he is very capable! ”

"Also, his brain is brighter than ours, I saw it when I stole chickens and dogs in the past."

"What do you see? Think your chickens have been stolen less? ”

Everyone talked and laughed in private, and their hearts were a little complicated, Xu Ling, who was originally looked down upon, how long has it been, how can it be a little unrecognizable?

Xu Ling invited Yang Tao and Sun Baoyao to take a seat, and poured two bowls of hot tea first, "Brother Sun, Uncle Yang, it's really hard for you to run and warm up." ”

Sun Baoyao said with a smile: "Master and I came on horseback, just so that we don't get drunk today, which wine did you buy?" Don't let us down! ”

At this time, Gu Daliang came over with a jar of wine and put it on the table, there was still a little dirt outside the wine jar, and Yang Tao's eyes lit up suddenly, "This is my daughter red?" ”

Gu Daliang said with a smile: "Your guest is really a good eye, the rice wine buried by my sister when she was born has been eighteen years now. ”

Xu Ling was stunned, how could he not know that there was such a thing?

"Brother Xu, you still have such good wine at home, it's really worth our trip!"

Sun Baoyao is an alcoholic head, he will be as happy as anything, he doesn't wait for the food to come up, and asks his master to open the wine stopper, and the two take turns sniffing the wine and sighing.

The daughter red, which was not used when the original owner and Gu Zhen got married, happened to be used to entertain distinguished guests today.

"Let's go!" With a shout, people made way for the people who served the vegetables, pork skin jelly, sour lotus root slices, fried lotus root, mutton and cabbage soup......

One dish after another was delivered to the table, staggered and smiling, so lively.
