Volume 12 Chapter 6 - The New Year I
"Congratulations to Bixia, congratulations to Bixia!"
"Congratulations princess!"
"Congratulations to the pony!"
All kinds of congratulatory voices were like a tide, Hong Yu had to thank the surroundings again and again, and the old man Hong Shengri was full of red faces, and he also hahadaxiao responded to the people around him who came up to pat and congratulate. The old man didn't pay attention, and the eldest grandson disappeared for a long time.
Mei Qianwu was dressed up quite alike, like a shy little daughter-in-law, with her head down and blushing, and was teased by the sisters around her. Zuihou stomped his foot and turned around and ran away.
In the midst of the bustle, the master and servant of Rongqinghe disappeared silently.
The second prince just maintained the proper etiquette, and left with Gao Chenghong after congratulating his little sister. Only He Chong acted as if nothing had happened, he didn't mean to be hit from beginning to end, and he calmly participated in all the subsequent processes. When everyone began to pour wine into Hong Yu, he also went up to toast!
In the process of pouring wine, the ancient Golem totem is very cheerful, this is the imperial wine, not much worse than the ice spring flow, Hong Yu drank for a while, all the wine was sent into the Tianquan Cave, and the primeval Golem totem screamed with joy.
The younger generation was originally envious, jealous and hateful to Hong Yu, so they naturally tried every means to put him down, but they didn't expect Hong Yu to refuse, these people began to shout fiercely, and then they coerced one by one, and gradually Hong Yu drank all the people around him away.
Emperor Wuzong was a little distressed, and whispered to Gonggong Dai: "You go and take care of those little guys, it's almost enough, if you drink it like this, all my tribute wine will be drunk by them." ”
Father-in-law Dai took the order to go, in fact, the people who are still around Hong Yu now are completely desperate to save face, Father-in-law Dai came to command, and they finally found an excuse and evacuated one after another.
By this time, the banquet had already ended, and everyone first sent Bixia and the queen away, and then each left the palace under the guidance of the eunuch.
Hong Shengri knew that at this time he remembered: "Hong Yu, where is your eldest brother?"
Hong Yu pretended to be stupid: "Huh? How do I know, I've been drinking." ”
Hong Shengri shouted: "Hong Lie!"
No response.
Over there, Song Mojin's face changed slightly, because his daughter was gone. But Song Mo didn't dare to shout loudly, and searched around with his wife.
The officials gradually left most of the people, and there were not many people left, but no two people had been found. Both families felt that something was wrong, and among the officials who stayed, there were also some people with a heart, who saw everything in their eyes, although they didn't need to say anything, but they all understood what was going on.
There have always been rumors between Hong Lie and Song Youran, but it was only later that Song Mojin repeatedly covered it up, and the "rumors" gradually subsided. And now, the two of them disappeared together, what did they do?
"Grandpa, I'm here. Hong Lie suddenly ran from the side, his face was a little red, and Song Youran appeared together. She followed behind Hong Lie without speaking, and returned to Song Mojin with her head down.
Song Mojin's cold face had turned iron-blue, and he turned around and left without saying a word. Mrs. Song sighed secretly, and pulled her daughter's hand in distress and followed.
Song Youran turned around and Hong Lie looked at each other from afar, both of them with resolute faces.
Although nothing "exciting" happened, those who did good things were already able to make up for themselves. Well, at the beginning of the new year, this "scandal" between the Hong family and the Song family will be the focus of heated discussions in Wudu City.
Hong Shengri's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he glared at Hong Lie fiercely: "Go back with me!"
The three of them left the imperial city silently along the way, and Hong Yu was a little unconvinced: "Grandpa, there is a great happy event, why are you so unhappy." ”
Hong Shengri didn't know that behind this matter was the second child's bad idea, and after thinking about it, he had a straight face, but it was unfair to the second child, and his expression finally eased a little, and he was already out of the imperial city at this time.
The news of the competition has already come out, and Hong Shen Hongyin and other accompanying generals all stepped forward to congratulate with a smile: "Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master!
Hong Yu smiled and dealt with a few words, anyway, the competition to recruit relatives is fake, but those benefits are real, and he is still very happy with the huge harvest tonight.
got into his carriage, Hong Shengri said: "Second child, Princess Qianwu is Bixia's most beloved daughter, my old man will say ugly things in front first, if you dare to be sorry for Your Highness, I can't spare you!"
Hong Yu looked at his grandfather's copper bell-like eyes, and there was a trace of helplessness in his heart. The agreement with Mei Qianwu, he hesitated to tell his grandfather. Well, if you think about it, forget it, grandpa may not believe it - it's true that few people believe this kind of thing.
He had no choice but to nod like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, grandpa, I understand." ”
He is so well-behaved, and he can also see that there will be a storm waiting for the eldest brother next, although he said that he would fight the tiger brothers, but in this case, he did not have the consciousness of sharing hardships with the eldest brother and being scolded by his grandfather.
Hong Shengri nodded with satisfaction, feeling that this grandson was becoming more and more satisfied. The old man stared at him, but the next words made Hong Yu run up like a burning ass.
"Your eighteen martial artists, I think it's better to move out first, after all, you are now a person with a marriage contract, it's not good for Her Royal Highness the princess to know, I'm thinking about your happiness......"
"How's that going to work!" Hong Yu refused without thinking about it, young master, I am about to take down Zhuang Han's three watery Xiaoluo I-, you drive them away at this time, the sea of blood is deep!
Hong Shengri glared, and Hong Yu hurriedly explained: "Your Highness has a good relationship with them, and if you drive them away, Your Highness will be really unhappy." "Where will Hong Shengri believe him?" Really?" Hong Yu put up his qualifications, stared at his chest, and was confident: "Do you know Your Highness or do I understand?"
Hong Shengri thought about it, it seemed to make sense, but he felt that he couldn't be fooled by his grandson so easily, and planned to go back and ask the eldest prince about it, if the eldest prince showed a little dissatisfaction, he would transfer the eighteen martial artists away.
Putting this matter aside first, Hong Shengri glared at Hong Lie fiercely. Hong Lie seemed to have sensed something, suddenly raised his head, this time met his grandfather's gaze without fear, and said calmly: "Grandpa, you can scold me as much as you want, but I really thought about it this time, no matter how you object, I will be with Youran." We've missed it once, it's a miracle that God was able to give us a second chance, and I don't think we'll have a third chance. I don't care what you think of Grandpa, what Song Mojin thinks, what other people in Wudu think, this time, I am only fighting for my own happiness and happiness, and I am very happy to be with Youran!"
Hong Shengri didn't even want to slap him: "I'll beat you to death, you stupid fool! What do you think your grandfather thinks of you when I oppose it? Fart! I'll tell you, I don't have any opinion about the two of you." If you kid have the ability, you can marry Song Youran back as a flat wife, and be angry with that bastard with Song Leng's face, grandpa, it's too late for me to be happy!"
Hong Yu looked at it for a while, and couldn't help condemning it in his heart: The patriarchal style of feudal autocracy!
Hong Lie originally thought that his sincere words, how could his grandfather be touched, but he didn't expect to directly usher in a big-eared scraper.
After Hong Shengri slapped him, he sat down again and said angrily: "But have you ever thought about how difficult this is? I know better than you all what kind of person Song Lengyan is! It is almost impossible for you kid to marry his daughter. ”
Hong Lie was stubborn: "I just work hard, I don't care about the result." ”
"Phew, my grandson of Hong Shengri, since I let go of my hands and feet to chase a girl, I can't catch up, where will my Hong family's face go?"
Hong Lie was aggrieved: "You only care about your own face......"
Hong Yu slapped him on the back of the head: "My eldest brother, how did the sow die?"
Hong Lie was depressed, even if he was beaten by his grandfather, he would be beaten by his younger brother: "Huh?"
"Stupid!" Hong Yu scolded: "Grandpa has said it, our Hong family can't afford to lose this person, so we will definitely find a way to help you chase Song Youran!"
Hong Lie was stunned for a moment, looked at his grandfather, Hong Shengri was still angry: "I am only responsible for leveling Song Mojin! If he interferes indiscriminately, I will definitely not be able to spare him." But I can't control anything else. In addition to Song Mojin's father, Song Youran also has seven aunts and eight aunts, and they definitely don't want the daughter of the Song family to marry the son of the Hong family!"
Hong Lie was ecstatic, and pounced on him and hugged Hong Shengri fiercely: "Grandpa Xiexie!"
Hong Yu was on the side, afraid that the world would not be chaotic: "Kiss it!"
Hong Lie kissed his grandfather's old face, Hong Shengri was disgusted: "Get out of me!"
"Haha!"
Because the night of Chinese New Year's Eve is spent in the palace, the next day's Spring Festival is particularly important. In the honorable area of Wudu City, the lanterns are colorful. Everyone in Xungui District participated in the palace feast on Chinese New Year's Eve, and today is really their own New Year.
Inside and outside Hong's house, red silk is hung, and palace lamps are dotted on the door and branches. Beaming inside and out.
Hong Yu slept lazily, and when he got up, Zhuang Han had already taken the eighteen martial artists to arrange them in the small courtyard for a long time. After Hong Yu washed, ate breakfast, sat at the door of the house and watched the eighteen young and beautiful girls fluttering all over the yard like butterflies, chirping like a flock of larks, and a sense of happiness came spontaneously.
Hong Xi walked in from the outside, holding two account books: "Young master, the year-end rewards of various industries have been reported by the shopkeepers, you can make a decision." ”
