"You brewed it?" Zhou Tingyu's father and son both looked at Luo Xin with wide eyes, their faces full of disbelief.

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded with a smile and said no more.

Half-loud, Zhou Tingyu looked at Luo Xin with a sigh and said, "Xin'er, this gift is just right for the prefect." You can have this mind, and your father-in-law will not worry about your career. ”

After the words fell, he turned his gaze to Zhou Yudao: "Follow Xin'er and learn a little, don't just read and make your brain stupid." ”

Zhou Yu said with a helpless look on his face: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Zhou Tingyu glared at Zhou Yu with hatred: "Do you know that this gift-giving is also a science?" With Xin'er now being a disciple of Lu Weng, if he gives a heavy gift to the prefect, he will not only be despised by the prefect, but also spurned by Shilin. If the gift is too light, it will be blamed by the prefect, but it is better not to go, and the gain outweighs the loss.

And now Xin'er just sent a jar of wine, and this gift can be said to be very light, very light. It's like an old friend visiting a friend, or a junior visiting an elder. Naturally, it will not be spurned by Shilin, but this jar of wine has the temper of the prefect. Because the prefect is good wine, good spirits. Although Xin'er only sent such a small jar of wine, this jar of wine is the best among the spirits, and it is not seen on the market at all.

In this way, in response to the saying that scarcity is precious, this jar of wine is a very ordinary and cheap gift for people who are not good at spirits, but for the prefect, it is the most precious gift. ”

"Father-in-law, do you think it's feasible for me to send this jar of wine?" Luo Xin looked at Zhou Tingyu and asked.

"It's doable, it's totally doable. Giving a gift in this way not only does not lose the spirit of a scholar, but is an elegant thing. But ......" Zhou Tingyu paused for a moment and said with a serious expression:

"I'm afraid that after the prefect drinks your wine, he will ask you for it again."

Luo Xin spread his hands and said: "This wine is just an old Taoist I met when I was in the wilderness, and I can talk to him." It was the old Tao who gave me an altar, and now I don't know where the old Tao went. ”

"Hahaha......" Zhou Tingyu raised his hand and nodded Luo Xin, laughing loudly.

"Don't talk about this wine." Zhou Tingyu admonished.

"The child understands!" Zhou Yu nodded, then turned to Luo Xin and said, "However, you can't just give me an altar, right?" ”

"What's giving you an altar?" Zhou Tingyu glared and said, "This is Xin'er's filial piety to his father." ”

"Look at it!" Zhou Yu said: "This is not my share at all. ”

Luo Xin smiled and said: "I will brew some more in my spare time, and our own family will always have to drink." ”

"Hahaha......" The three of them laughed heartily.

In the evening.

Luo Xin came to Sun's Mansion with a small jar of wine, and before he arrived at the door of Sun's Mansion, he saw more than a dozen sedan cars in front of Sun's Mansion, presumably all of them were people visiting Sun's Mansion. Luo Xin walked straight to the gate. In order to wait for the family of the Sun Mansion at the door, he took out Sun Jixian's name thorn and handed it over. When that family member saw Sun Jixian's famous thorn, his originally arrogant expression instantly became humble.

In the era of the Ming Dynasty, the people who can visit not with their own name thorn, but with the name thorn of the main family, are definitely not simple people. Either a person of higher status than the Lord's family, or a descendant of a person of higher status than the Lord's family. No matter what kind of person he is, a domestic slave like him can offend.

humbly welcomed Luo Xin into the gatehouse, asked Luo Xin to wait, and then hurriedly ran towards the house. Luo Xin walked into the gatehouse and saw that this was the gatehouse of the prefect's house, which was very wide. There were more than a dozen people sitting inside at this time. Some are still wearing official robes, and with a sweep of their eyes, they can be seen from their respective temperaments that some are officials. Some are wealthy businessmen.

While Luo Xin quickly looked at them, they were also looking at Luo Xin. These people are wondering in their hearts how can a little scholar be qualified to meet the prefect? And the talisman maker Ding still looks very humble, could it be that this little scholar has an amazing background?

Luo Xin didn't want to talk to these people at this time, so he walked to a corner and sat down away from everyone. Therefore, although everyone was curious about Luo Xin, they did not rashly talk to Luo Xin.

Besides, the family came to the living room in a hurry, and Sun Jixian was entertaining an official at this time. The family came to Sun Jixian lightly. Both hands placed the thorn on the table in front of Sun Jixian. As soon as Sun Jixian saw that it was his famous thorn, his expression moved slightly.

As the prefect, he didn't send out many famous thorns, and the images of a few people quickly flashed in his mind. The official sitting down also glanced at the famous thorn quickly, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. Then he said with a sense of humor:

"My lord, the lower official will leave."

Sun Jixian stood up and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Fu Chengxian, this Dao test will tire you." ”

"This is the honor of the lower officials."

"Hehe......" Sun Jixian sent the other party to the door of the living room with his arm, and the two sides said goodbye, knowing that the official's back disappeared, Sun Jixian asked:

"Who is it?"

"Master Hui, he is a teenage scholar."

Sun Jixian's mind immediately appeared Luo Xin's appearance, and a smile appeared on his face and said:

"It's him, bring him in."

"Yes, sir!"

The family left in a hurry, and Sun Jixian stood at the door with his hands in his hands, with a trace of curiosity in his eyes, and said secretly in his heart:

"What is he here for? The government exam is about to begin, is it because he is afraid that he will be embarrassed by his teacher? Coming here for a walk? I wonder if he'll come empty-handed, or if he'll be a heavy gift to me? ”

There was a hint of inquiry in Sun Jixian's eyes, and at this time, a man in a wide robe walked on the path on the side, with a big head, although he was wearing a Confucian shirt, he had a heroic temperament. Strode towards Sun Jixian.

"Jixian, where did you get so many guests? Hurry up and send them all away. ”

"Fushan, you still have this temperament." Sun Jixian smiled and said: "You came just in time, a little friend will come in a while, how about you come to see this little friend?" ”

"Little friend? What kind of little friend? The man approached with interest.

"It's a prodigy in our Jinyang."

The two of them walked into the living room while talking and laughing, and sat down as guests. Fushan jokingly abused: "There are a lot of prodigies in the north, but there is no one who can really grow up in the end." ”

"Hehe......" Sun Jixian laughed awkwardly twice, but this is also a fact, and he has nothing to refute.

Luo Xin followed the family member on the bluestone road leading to the living room, and there was a person walking on the opposite side, but it was the official who had just left from Sun Jixian's living room, his eyes fell on Luo Xin's body, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.
