4. Drinking

Xue Pan's wine is not good, although drunk will not beat people and scold people, but drunk crazy, talking nonsense, and jumping is indispensable, Xue Wang is also afraid that Xue Pan is still young, if he is drunk is not good for his body, so he is very dissatisfied Xue Pan invited guests to eat under his nose, she often asks Yang Zhi and Wang Mama to remind Xue Pan to drink less, Yang Zhi so today he took Xue Wang's order arrow to give orders, Zhen'er smiled, "What I drank today is wine, this is not Huiquan wine, sweet and refreshing, I won't get drunk," Seeing Yang Zhi frowning, he hurriedly explained, "Mrs. Ling'er, who dares to disrespect, sister, please rest assured, I will definitely persuade the uncle." ”

"It's good that you know, these days are May Day, in case any distinguished guests come to the door temporarily, it is rude for the uncle to get drunk, you should also pay attention to it, have you prepared a sobering soup?"

"It's ready, it's fresh crucian carp, soup made with sour bamboo shoots."

"That's the best," Yang Zhi instructed Zhen'er, "the cake has been sent in, you can go and talk back." ”

Zhen'er strode up the steps, entered the vermilion gate, here is a very spacious courtyard, the blue waves ripple under the cross-shaped white marble long bridge, the pond water is as green as jade, flawless and transparent, there are green trees and red flowers hanging into the water on both sides, the petals fall in bursts, there are colorful gold scales shaking their heads in the blue water, in the middle of the cross-shaped long bridge, is a boxy two-storey pavilion, a group of people sit on the pavilion and talk and laugh. He walked up the steps, only to see Ma Yu holding a glass wine glass, leaning on the railing, putting the wine in the wind, reading a long fu, the rest of the people some drank by themselves, some listened attentively, and some were holding the dishes with chopsticks.

In fact, many people didn't know what the hell Ma Yu was talking about, so Tong Shu yawned very unceremoniously, "Brother Ma, there are not many scholars here, who can understand if you take out this Han Fu?" Hurry up and have a drink. ”

Zhen Baoyu said with a smile, "Han Fu is the grandest, today's banquet for Brother Wenlong is naturally suitable for reading Han Fu, Brother Antu really doesn't understand!" Punish yourself first! ”

Everyone coaxed, only Xue Pan smiled silently, wearing a purple and gold crown, wearing a crane, holding a glass cup in his hand, the wine in it was as red as blood, this was his second year to the Dayue Dynasty, although not much time had passed, but in just a few months, Xue Pan seemed to have completely changed a person, from the original short and fat figure, suddenly it seemed like a willow tree, draw up, through exercise to learn martial arts and horseback archery, Xue Pan almost overnight, from short and fat to tall and thin, The originally round face has become thinner, revealing a pointed chin, it seems that because of the slimming, the original small eyes have also become sword eyebrows and starry eyes, which are completely different from the previous children's appearance, and others don't think so, but Xue Wang's family is very distressed, and has been complaining that the cook at home is not delicious, which makes Xue Pan hungry and lose so much weight in vain.

In short, Xue Pan finally got rid of the white and chubby boy he painted in the past.

The big guy made a fuss for a while, and asked Xue Pan to preside over justice, Xue Pan smiled slightly, "The big guys are all good brothers in their own homes, why bother with these, those who can work hard, those who like to read poetry, those who like to drink wine, and those who like to eat vegetables are good, if you like to sing, although I don't have a singer here, but I have all the teeth and flutes, and you can sing." ”

Everyone laughed and said, "Brother Wenlong is the most open-minded, we people can't usually play together, so we can only mix here with Brother Wenlong." ”

The little guys took the food again, Zhen Baoyu was extremely happy today, pulled Ma Yu, and told the little guys in a stack of voices, take the pen and ink, the two of them wanted to write poems, Tong Shu saw that the big guy was happy at this time, so he leaned into Xue Pan's ear, "Brother Wenlong's last order has already been a little eyebrow." ”

"How?" Xue Pan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it easy to do?" ”

"It's easy to do, but it's not easy to do," Tong Shu said, "There are many people here, speaking of which are gentry from the countryside, but the relationship is not nothing, if you do it rashly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do." ”

Xue Pan shook his head, "Naturally, you can't mess around, whether you have a background or not, I asked Brother Antu to inquire, it's not that you have to prepare for chaos, if it is, I don't need to wait until today." ”

It seems that Xue Pan is dissatisfied with his own methods, Tong Shu's heart suddenly bursts, and then he smiled, "Naturally, I don't dare to do things that violate the law, and I still have to take care of everything by Brother Wenlong." ”

Xue Pan nodded, "It's the best, it's not good to cause trouble, the mountain land handed over to me by the Jinling Mansion is tasteless, it's a pity to abandon it, I still have to come up with ideas to use these things." ”

Tong Shu was a little unimpressed with Xue Pan, but still nodded yes, "What Brother Wenlong said is very true, it's better to be cautious." ”

Zhen Baoyu waved his pen, obviously very satisfied with today's poems, and asked Xue Pan to come to appreciate it, Xue Pan has studied cultural lessons for a long time, although poetry is still not good, but poetry is quite good, he originally had his own aesthetics, he is quite innovative, a few comments, let Zhen Baoyu smile, "Hey, Brother Wenlong is such a wonderful person, but he has been trapped at home, it's really not good, according to my brother's meaning," Zhen Baoyu proposed, "Now that you have been filial, please come out and get together with the big guy." ”

"This is natural," Xue Pan said with a smile, "There is no reason to hide at home all the time." ”

The big guys are all the children of the officials, and when it comes to it, it is inevitable to talk about the dynamics of the local officialdom in Jinling, "I heard," Zhao Mingfan said, "Our Jinling Mansion will be transferred at the end of the term, and the position of this mansion will be vacant again." ”

"Really?" Ma Yuqi said, "I heard before that I would be promoted on the spot and promoted to the political envoy of Jinling." ”

"I'm afraid it won't work, Jinling Province is a big province, and the political envoy is by no means an ordinary person can serve as a political envoy, not to mention that the big mansion has jumped from the prefect to the political envoy, which is a rare thing in the country." Tong Shu analyzed, "If I don't stay in office, I think I will transfer to other positions, no matter what, I will always be promoted." ”

"That's a good thing, but we're not necessarily a good thing," Zhao Mingfan is doing business with the imperial court and the government, and is more concerned about this dynamic, "But the new mansion doesn't know where it came from?" I don't know what kind of temperament it is? ”

The big guy said this and looked at Zhen Baoyu again, Zhen Baoyu suddenly didn't know, and looked at Xue Pan's folding fan with something to do, Xue Pan smiled slightly, "Brother Baoyu is a fairy, you don't have to trouble him with these mundane things." ”
