Chapter Forty-Eight: So Social

Da Kui saw that Luo Shicheng was gone, so he asked directly: "What have you found out?" Yang Xiaohu and Tian Feng both shook their heads, and Da Kui smiled: "It seems that I made the right move today." After a pause, he said to the two, "In this way, you still need to..." Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Da Kui immediately stopped. Tian Feng put away the documents drawn by Luo Shicheng on the table and put them in his arms, and walked into the inner room with the four treasures of the study.

The person who came stopped outside the door and said: "My lord, the yamen has prepared a sedan chair to invite the adults to the banquet." Da Kui also felt that Liang Youcai's people should almost arrive, so he said to Tian Feng: "You are guarding the inn, waiting for the news of Panbu, Xiaohu will come with me." Yang Xiaohu opened the door, and the two of them went out of the door one after the other, and went downstairs and out of the inn.

Outside the door of the inn, there is a small blue silk sedan chair, two sedan chair drivers, and four officials standing on the left and right of the sedan chair. Da Kui didn't care either, thinking that this sedan chair must be Liang Youcai's own. Da Kui got into the sedan chair, and Yang Xiaohu followed closely and went all the way to the west.

After a short time, I arrived at a mansion, and the small sedan car kept going straight to the main entrance, and someone had already opened the door in front of the door to wait. After entering the door and walking for a while, the sedan chair stopped in a small garden courtyard. Da Kui got off the sedan chair, looked around, and couldn't help but exclaim: 'This small courtyard is really beautiful'. I saw that the rockery was flowing and the trees were green, and there was still a small pond next to the rockery. There must have been fish in the pond, because there was a golden cat by the pond that was crawling and staring closely at the water.

Da Kui was watching around, and there was a hearty laugh behind him, and Da Kui hurriedly turned around to watch. I saw three people walking towards me, and the first one looked like he was about the same age, wearing a slanted blue satin robe with a jade belt around his waist, and his figure was slightly rich and very good. When he was far away, he arched his hand and said: "Oh, Lord Zhang has come from afar and worked hard." Da Kui smiled and bowed back: "Wowhaha, Lord Liang is troublesome for no reason. The two sang and harmonized, and they also fought neatly.

When Lord Liang saw that Da Kui was like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, he invited Da Kui with one hand and pulled Da Kui's left arm with the other and said, "Xia Guan has prepared a little thin wine to wash the dust for your lord, please." Da Kui took Lord Liang's arm and said, "What a disturbance, Lord Liang Haihan, hahahaha." ”

The two of them held hands and walked to the living room.

The banquet had already been set up in the hall, and there were already three people in fancy clothes who didn't know their identities standing in the door. Entering the hall, Da Kui and Liang Youcai sat down separately, and Liang Youcai beckoned everyone to sit down. Then Liang Youcai personally filled Da Kui with a glass of wine, and then introduced the three who came to accompany him one by one, who were nothing more than the rich gentry of Shunyuan.

"Let's raise a glass together and wash the dust for Lord Zhang. Liang Youcai raised his glass first, and the rest of the people also raised their glasses accordingly. Da Kui also raised his glass and said: "This official has come to your place for the first time, and there is a lot of trouble. It even made Lord Liang break the bill, and the official punished himself with a cup first. As he spoke, he drank a glass of wine himself. Everyone here was stunned, but they all had a drink with them.

Da Kui put down his wine glass and said, "Hey, when this official came, I was reminded by Lord Wang Fu. Otherwise, I really don't know that although Lord Liang is only a city mansion, he has a great background behind it. Liang Youcai's face was full of smugness when he heard this: "Lord Zhang and my uncle are acquainted?" Da Kui laughed: "It's not just familiar, I regard Lord Wang Fu as an elder." Yang Xiaohu behind Da Kui wanted to laugh, but he tried to hold back and didn't dare to squeak.

Liang Youcai was overjoyed when he heard it: "Hahahaha, it turned out to be my own person, come on, come on, little brother will give another cup to the adult." Saying that, he took the wine jug and poured the wine again, Da Kui stretched out his hand and stopped: "Just ask your subordinates to do these little things, why not Brother Laoxian...?"

Yes, Lord Liang has changed to a virtuous brother. Liang Youcai hurriedly said: "To show sincerity to distinguished guests, you have to toast three cups in a row." Da Kui couldn't help but say: "It turns out that Lord Liang regards Zhang as an outsider, so it's okay not to eat this meal." After saying that, he got up to leave, Liang Youcai hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed it: "Brother misunderstood..." "It's good now, after less than three glasses of wine, I will be called a brother.

Hearing this, Da Kui looked at Liang Youcai coldly and said, "You and my brother still want to be so polite, isn't it a joke for outsiders to see it?" he said and pointed to the other three people present. Liang Youcai hurriedly handed the wine jug to the maid behind him, and accompanied him: "It's all the fault of the younger brother, don't blame the brother, sit down quickly." Da Kui pretended to be angry and sat down.

Next, the two of them pushed the cup and changed the glass, and they were very happy, and the wine was over three rounds and the dishes were five flavors. Liang Youcai asked, "What is the matter with my brother's long way?" Da Kui was stunned when he heard this, but then said nonsense: "Lord Wang learned that the virtuous brother got a treasure, and he sent the official to see if it was true or not. Da Kui thought to himself, Liang Youcai is greedy for money, and he must have a treasure in his hand, and he will cheat him.

Liang Youcai was shocked, he had only been a month since he got the baby, how could his uncle know? Da Kui saw his expression and knew that he was blindfolded, so he picked up the wine glass and took a slow sip.

Liang Youcai asked tentatively for the sake of safety: "What happened to Ah Hua in my uncle's mansion now?"

"Ah Hua?" Da Kui was taken aback, but then he thought that since he was called Ah Hua, his identity was not very noble. couldn't help pretending to be angry and said, "Bullshit, Ah Hua." As he spoke, he slapped the table. Liang Youcai believed it when he saw this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Brother, don't be angry, although that Ah Hua is a dog, it is my little aunt's baby." ”

Da Kui was secretly lucky in his heart, but he pretended to say on his face: "That dog thing, when you see me, bite me, this official can't wait to cook it." Liang Youcai couldn't help but think: "Since this Lord Zhang can enter his uncle's inner room, he must be his uncle's henchman." At that moment, he raised his glass and said, "Come on, brother, drink this cup to the full!" Don't spoil the atmosphere of you and my brother for some trivial things. ”

Da Kui picked up the wine glass and drank another glass with Liang Youcai, and the two just put down the wine glass. The three gentlemen who sat with them came to toast again, doing their best to flatter. Da Kui knows the amount of alcohol he drinks, and if he drinks it like this, he will probably be carried back. At the moment, he said in an official tone: "This official is chatting with my virtuous brother, why do you need to bother?"

When Liang Youcai heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand to the other three and said, "You can go back first, and we will discuss it another day if there is something." The three gentlemen got up and took their leave. Liang Youcai said: "The elder brother is tired of the saddle horse, and the younger brother has prepared a small gift for the elder brother to relieve his fatigue." As he spoke, he clapped his hands three times in a row, and two maids came out of the back hall, both holding trays. The tray was covered with red silk, but I didn't know what it contained.

Liang Youcai got up with a smile and walked over to the two maids, and reached out to remove two pieces of red silk. Da Kui's eyes couldn't help but straighten, and on those two trays were a plate of gold ingots and a plate of silver ingots.
