Text Chapter 65 The Flower Family
Chapter 65: The Flower Family
There are by no means a few people with the surname Hua in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but there are only two kinds of Hua families.
One is the flower family in Sanssouci City, and the other is the flower family outside Sanssouci City.
Jiangbei Huajia, it is one of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes, and it is also the only one of the rivers and lakes that extends its hand to the imperial court.
Sanssouci City is the Sanssouci City of the Hua family, because the city lord of Sanssouci City is the head of the Hua family.
The circumference of the city wall is about 70 miles, covering an area of about 12,600 acres, and it is a large city with a population of one million.
The Hua family occupies such a place, and after decades of savings, its power has developed to a very terrifying point.
If you want to rank all the families in the rivers and lakes and the imperial court, the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty must be the first, and even if the Jiangbei Hua family can't rank second, it will never fall out of the top five.
Since the head of the Hua family took control of Sanssouci City, after decades of wind and rain, the Hua family has always been standing, but more and more prosperous, and in recent years, a large number of young masters have appeared.
It's been a long time since the people of the Hua family have seen the head of the family so happy!
Everyone in Sanssouci City knows that the head of the Hua family is a Confucian who is rich and rich.
If you want to achieve such an achievement, your own self-cultivation will naturally not be bad. So he has great respect for anyone, whether it is a down-and-out beggar or a prince and dignitary, and he will not be rude to anyone.
On this day, the head of the Hua family not only took out the peach blossom brew that had been treasured at home for a hundred years, but even the big people who had discussed the discussion together today were sent away by the head of the Hua family.
But he was full of joy, cooked himself, and cooked a few home-cooked dishes.
The head of the Hua family is a person who pays attention to the quality of life, and there are many things he is proud of in his life, one of which is to learn a cooking skill that is unparalleled in the world. His exquisite cooking skills are by no means inferior to those of the palace chefs.
And he did it just to entertain the three young men.
A gray-haired old man poured a glass of wine for each of the three young men sitting in front of him, and he raised his white jade glass with a smile on his face.
"Please!"
"Please!" She Xiaofeng also smiled.
"Please!"
Lin Xuan and Shen Xingzhi naturally followed suit.
She Xiaofeng took a sip of the wine, only to feel that the wine tasted mellow, extremely spicy in the throat, as if a fire was burning in the throat, and after tasting it carefully, he felt that the aftertaste was long.
A flush quickly appeared on his face, and then he praised it loudly: "Sure enough, it's a good wine!
"This pot of peach blossom brewing has a history of a hundred years, and I bought it from others at a great cost!" A hint of pride flashed in the old man's eyes, and he twisted his beard and smiled: "Even I am reluctant to drink this wine, but I know that you are a good winemaker, of course I have to take it out for you to taste one or two." ”
"In that case, I can't afford to waste it. Anyway, it's your heart, I have to have a few more drinks!"
She Xiaofeng said, drank all the wine in the cup, and then poured a full cup and drank it all.
"Ahem!"
He couldn't help coughing lightly, then gently wiped his lips with his shirt, he laughed, and his originally nervous expression relaxed a lot: "You don't stop me? This wine is so strong, aren't you afraid that I will drink too much?"
The old man stroked his beard and smiled, and he took the initiative to pour a full cup for She Xiaofeng.
"A few years ago, when we were fighting wine, how many glasses did you drink before you collapsed?
"You didn't drink too much back then, let alone now......"
She Xiaofeng and the old head of the Hua family are old friends, and the two have a good relationship, so he is so interested in She Xiaofeng.
She Xiaofeng has all kinds of friends, he has friends all over the world, but there are not many old friends who are really deep, and this old man is obviously one of them.
She Xiaofeng is a very infectious person, he is optimistic and will never despair no matter what time he is. Many people will never forget him once they see him.
Nine out of nine people in the world would refuse to be friends with someone like him.
The old man drank wine and glanced up at Lin Xuan.
His eyes condensed slightly, his face became solemn, and then he asked softly: "You are Lin Xuan, who won the title of Great Zhou Genius?" When I saw you today, the old man found that you were much younger than the rumors. ”
Lin Xuan drank a glass of wine, he shook his head lightly, and then replied lightly: "Don't dare to be!"
"It's that they exalt me too much, it's all some unpopular skills, not enough to worry about!"
The old man's face was complicated, and he smiled bitterly: "The old man has read books all his life, and he has never made such exquisite poems as you. If this is still the ability to enter the stream, then wouldn't the old decay live in vain?"
The head of the Hua family said this purely by humility, he has made a lot of good sentences in his life, and he can be regarded as a famous Confucian. Lin Xuan was completely opportunistic, but in fact, he didn't have a backache when he stood and talked.
The old man glanced at Lin Xuan and said with emotion on his face: "I have loved plums all my life, so I sent someone to plant plum trees all over the city in Sanssouci City." Can you ...... Write a poem about May?"
Lin Xuan bowed his head, his expression was calm, and he said softly: "There is no need!"
He pondered for a long time, and then said slowly.
"The crowd shook off the solitary beauty and occupied the small garden. The shadow is sparse and the water is shallow, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon.
The frost bird wants to steal the eye first, and the pink butterfly knows how to break the soul. Fortunately, there is a slight chant that can be reciprocated, and there is no need for a sandalwood board to be honored. ”
Hearing this, the old man frowned.
It's not that he underestimated Lin Xuan, it's actually that the speed at which he writes lyrics is terrifying. But three breaths, and then the mouth becomes a poem.
I heard that he wrote poems in Yangzhou City in one step and wrote lyrics in one step......
What a spectacular scene......
The poems he just wrote, although not masterpieces, are extremely subtle and high-class poems.
Unconscionable!
Unconscionable!
Lin Xuan glanced at the old man and saw that he frowned slightly, so he shook his head and asked, "Now that you hear the poem I composed, do you feel very disappointed?"
The old man took a deep breath, the shock and doubt in his eyes had not yet dissipated, and he said softly: "I am always a little surprised in my heart, why do you write poems so fast, and the poems you make are all exquisite......
Lin Xuan took a sip of wine, lowered his head, and his eyes flickered a few times.
A wisp of banter floated in his heart, and then he said softly: "Sparse and faint, asking who Ah is is comparable to the color of innocence." Laughing and killing Dongjun is vain, how much Zhu Zhu is in vain. The snow is gentle, the waterside is bright, and it does not borrow spring work. The bones are fragrant and tender, and they are very different from each other.
Taste the treasure and remember the cold light, the window people sleep up, and the jade is lightly picked. Wandering in the end of the world, it is still the standard of the year. Thousands of miles of wind and smoke, a stream of frost and moon, I am not afraid of deceiving him. It's better to go back, Langyuan has a personal memory. ”
Lin Xuan glanced at the old man with a smile, saw that his face was full of shock, and his eyes were full of disbelief, and then he spoke again: "By the broken bridge outside the post, there is no owner in the lonely opening." It was already dusk and I was alone, and it was even more windy and rainy.
has no intention of fighting for spring, and a group of people are jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. ”
"You!you!you!"
The face of the head of the Hua family changed greatly, his breathing was slightly short, and his mind was buzzing constantly.
"Bang!"
The glass in his hand fell to the ground with a soft thud, and he didn't notice it.
His whole body was like a thunderbolt, and the whole person stood up and exclaimed.
"It can't ......"
"How is this possible......"
He had never felt like the world was falling apart like today in his life, and what he saw in front of him was beyond his imagination and subverted his mind.
The old man was distracted, he pointed at Lin Xuan, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
Lin Xuan saw that the other party doubted him, so he simply made a big fuss.
I have to say, this old man's frightened appearance looks funny!
......
After a long time, the old man calmed down, looked at Lin Xuan's smiling face, and sighed again: "There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky!
"Fang Cai is the old man sitting in the well and watching the sky......" He picked up a glass of wine, looked embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "Lin Gongzi is full of wealth, very people can imagine, the old man punished himself with three cups!"
He raised his glass and drank it all. Then he took up the jar and filled two empty glasses.
"!"
He took a deep breath and quickly finished two glasses of peach blossom wine.
The old man stared at Lin Xuan for a long time, his eyes full of amazement and shock.
Seeing this, She Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask, "Why do you keep staring at him, you won't be in love with him?"
The head of the Hua family glanced at She Xiaofeng with a smile on his face, and said quietly: "Compared to him, I like you more!"
"Poof!"
She Xiaofeng squirted out the wine in his mouth and replied in a low voice, "Why do you have to make such a joke?"
The old man shook his head, his expression looked serious, and he said slowly: "I have a granddaughter, who is as beautiful as a flower, why don't you marry him?"
She Xiaofeng was embarrassed, and he replied curtly: "I obviously regard you as a friend, but you want to be my elder?"
"You......" The old man shook his head helplessly: "You are not too young, why are you not married?"
"If you marry my granddaughter, I will be very happy!"
She Xiaofeng took a sip of the wine in the glass and chuckled: "Why don't you invite her out first?"
The old man nodded and left with a smile.
The other side.
Seeing that the old man was gone, Shen Xingzhi couldn't help but turn his head to look at She Xiaofeng, and he asked puzzledly, "Why don't you tell the truth? Wouldn't it be better for us to tell him the purpose of this trip directly?"
She Xiaofeng glanced at the back of the old man leaving with a complicated face, he lowered his head and sighed: "He is my friend after all, how can I treat him like this?"
"He's getting old, and his days are numbered...... Wouldn't it be cruel for me to tell the truth!"
Shen Xingzhi shook his head and said, "At least you should tell him about it......"
"The power of the Divine Sword Villa is not weaker than that of the Hua family, if they find out that their young owner is being calculated by the Hua family, they will never let the Hua family go easily!"
"When that time comes...... It's the hardest situation to choose!"
She Xiaofeng was silent for a long time, and after a while, he nodded and shook his head again.
It was a tricky question, and no matter what he chose, his old friend's heart would not be good.
Taking 10,000 steps back, this is his own family's family affair after all.
I'm not qualified to meddle at all!
If he had spoken out about it, he would have lost that friend.
If he doesn't say it, it will hurt him.
She Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and knocked on the eaves of the table, he sighed, his brows furrowed: "He treats me as a friend, how can I harm him?"
He exhaled deeply, dispelling the distractions in his mind, and raised his glass to drink.
The wine is mellow and delicious. After entering the throat, it warms up the body and is very refreshing.
"Come ......"
"Drinking ......"
