Chapter Six Family Banquet Poetry Cocktail Party III
Chapter 6 Poetry and Drinking Reception at Xu Mansion’s Family Banquet (3)——
Seeing that there was already some noise at the door of the Xu Mansion, the two servants seemed to be unable to control the situation. One of them was about to turn around and walk back into the mansion, but at this time, something strange happened.
I saw three people coming from behind Zhengyao and others, and all three people had cold eyes and domineering looks. Needless to say, these three people were the three generations of the Yan family, Yan Song, Yan Shifan and Yan Hao. Look at the three people
The posture seems to be a bad one.
"Who is here? Do you have an invitation?" Again, the servant once again used the same words he had said to Zhengyao and others before, and stopped Yan Song and the others.
"You bastard! You don't even know us! I don't think you're a nurse anymore!"
As he spoke, Yan Shifan slapped the servant on the face. The servant didn't even come back to his senses, and a five-fingerprint appeared on his face.
"You..." The servant felt like he was on the verge of tears and wanted to retaliate, but when he saw Yan Shifan staring at him with such a cold and wanton eye, he was speechless.
"You kid, remember it! This is the current chief minister of the cabinet, Mr. Yan Songyan, the Minister of Civil Affairs! And I am Yan Shifan, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry! Next time, you should have a longer memory and see clearly when someone is asking a question! Otherwise,
Good luck to you! Hao'er, let's go!" With that said, Yan Shifan waved his hand to Yan Hao behind him to follow, but Yan Song in front of him didn't pay attention to this at all and had already entered the Xu Mansion.
Seeing Yan Shifan entering the gate, the servant who was beaten realized what he was doing, covered his face with his hands, and thought to himself: It is true that fame is not as good as seeing it, this Yan Shifan is indeed too bully!
And just when Yan Hao had just stepped through the door, he saw him turning back to Zheng Yao and smiling contemptuously. Then he put his mouth to another servant's ear and whispered: "These are Shuzhou Guild Hall."
We are poor scholars with no money and no power, but don’t let them come in and cause trouble!”
After saying that, Yan Hao made a contemptuous gesture to Zheng Yao again, turned around and shouted: "Dad, wait for me." Then he followed him.
After hearing what Yan Hao said, the servant was startled. After pondering for a moment, the servant suddenly withdrew his right foot that was about to enter the door, then turned around and walked to Zheng Yao.
Although Zheng Yao didn't know what Yan Hao said in that servant's ear, he was certain that Yan Hao never said anything nice. And from the actions and demeanor of the servant just now, it could be concluded that Zheng Yao was not imagining it out of thin air.
.
"Didn't I ask you to call Mr. Xu to come out for a confrontation? What? Are you afraid that Mr. Xu will punish you later, so you decided to let us in now?" Wu Dan looked at the servant with a smile on his face and said, he naturally did not consider it.
Yan Hao said something. He just noticed that another servant was beaten. Maybe the servant in front of him was afraid and let him and others in?
Of course, this was just Wu Dan's unilateral idea, which was naturally far different from that of the servant. After hearing what Wu Dan said, the servant couldn't help but laugh, and the disdain on his face seemed to be enough to kill a mosquito.
.
"Why are you laughing?" Wu Dan was puzzled and continued to ask.
"Haha! What a joke! We adults are so busy inside right now, how can we have time to greet you? How can he be the old man you want to see just because you say you want to see him? Although I don't know how you got the invitation, maybe it was Xu.
Your Excellency, only if you think there is a talent among you that you can appreciate, let him come here to have a look, but don’t just
This alone represents how impressive your Shuzhou Guild Hall is! Don’t forget, your Shuzhou Guild Hall hasn’t even won a single prize in these talent competitions. Useless and poor scholars like you, simply
Go home and farm, don't be embarrassed here! If you want to go in, go in, if not, you can leave now!"
When the servant said the four words "Shuzhou Guild Hall", his face was full of contempt. It was not difficult to judge from this how bad the Shuzhou Guild Hall was in the capital. Even a servant looked down on it. You know, these two
Has anyone obtained meritorious status from the Shuzhou Guild Hall in 2016?
"What did you say? Are you saying it again?" Zhengyao's eyes widened immediately and he stared at the servant. There was a cold light in his eyes, as if it was enough to extinguish an oil lamp, making the arrogant servant
The servant trembled slightly.
When the disciples of the Shuzhou Guild Hall on the side heard that the servant had insulted them, they suddenly became angry and couldn't help but rush forward one after another, shouting continuously.
For some people, you can torture them, ravage them, and despise them, but you must not insult them. A person can have no money or power, but he cannot lose his dignity. This is the case with Zhengyao. As long as this servant dares to say another word, he will be guaranteed to be honest.
Yao would hit him with one punch.
The waiter didn't expect Zhengyao to react like this, and he didn't expect that the people in the Shuzhou Guild Hall would shout like crazy, attracting a crowd of people to watch. At this time, the waiter had no choice but to dare to say another word.
He could already vaguely sense that the cold light in Zhengyao's eyes was about to shine at him, and he might be in danger of being beaten at any time.
"What's the fuss about? This is the Xu Mansion, not the vegetable market!" Just as Zhengyao was glaring at the servant and preparing to attack, while others including Yuan Haiyun, Liu Yan, and Zhang Cheng were shouting, he suddenly came from behind.
Come one by one
The middle-aged man in brocade clothes and plumes was full of righteousness. He wore a dragon-patterned sword around his waist. At a glance, he knew he was from the Jin Yiwei. However, his voice was like a bell, and he was quite majestic, which made the two servants beside him shout.
There was a moment of trepidation.
"Lu... Mr. Lu, it's... nothing, just... just a little misunderstanding, just a small misunderstanding!" The servant who was beaten by Yan Song before immediately stepped forward to talk to him, as if he was afraid of offending Mr. Lu.
When Zheng Yao saw this Mr. Lu, he immediately felt that this person was definitely an unusual person, and that he must have a close relationship with Xu Jie. You must know that the two servants did not even know Yan Song, but they only knew Mr. Lu in front of him, and this Lu
Even if an adult can speak so loudly when he comes to the Xu Mansion, there must be something wrong in it.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, why are you standing at the door? We're here for a poetry reception, not a denunciation meeting!" After saying that, Mr. Lu led his group and walked in.
At this time, Zhengyao already understood that Mr. Lu intended to let his group follow him, so Zhengyao immediately told everyone to follow him.
But at this moment, he saw Liu Yan standing motionless. Zhengyao didn't know why, so he immediately turned around, walked up to Liu Yan and said, "Second brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted all of a sudden?
"
Zheng Yao's observation skills are naturally very strong, and he can tell the clues at a glance. Ever since Mr. Lu walked by, Liu Yan suddenly became a little silent. This was something Liu Yan had never done before.
Intuition told Zhengyao that there must be something between Liu Yan and this Mr. Lu.
"Third brother, I think I won't go in. I suddenly feel a little unwell. Just go in!" Liu Yan said with some reluctance. After saying that, he turned around and wanted to back out.
The more this happened, the more Zhengyao understood that Liu Yan must have something on his mind. At this time, Yuan Haiyun also came over and immediately stepped forward and said: "Come, I will take your pulse and see where you are feeling uncomfortable, so that I can prescribe the right medicine!"
After getting along with Zhengyao for a long time, Yuan Haiyun naturally learned some sense of observation. Zhang Cheng was the only one who seemed to only know what he said. In fact, he also noticed something wrong with Liu Yan, but he didn't consider it before Zhengyao.
He was so thoughtful. So he stepped forward to deliberately dispel Liu Yan's idea of retreating by taking his pulse.
Liu Yan didn't know what Zhengyao and Yuan Haiyun were thinking, but he really didn't want to go in at the moment. But for a while, he couldn't explain the cause and effect of the matter.
However, Wu Dan came more directly. When everyone went in without being blocked by the servants, they saw Zhengyao and three others still standing at the door, so they immediately walked over, grabbed Liu Yan, and walked directly to Xu Mansion.
go.
Zhengyao and Yuan Haiyun each looked at each other and smiled. Wu Dan's method worked, and Liu Yan could not tolerate the slightest refusal.
When Zhengyao and Yuan Haiyun entered the door, Zhengyao couldn't help but look at the servant on the left again. This seemed to be a warning. Zhengyao was naturally very dissatisfied with what this servant did. And Yuan Haiyun was even more naughty.
He made a face at the servant, his childish look almost making Zhengyao laugh and hit him on the ground.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw an iron button rolling towards his feet. Zhengyao felt that the iron button seemed familiar, so he immediately bent down to pick it up, took it into his hands and started to squeeze it.
After looking at it for a long time, he didn't remember where the button was. Zhengyao was about to walk in without thinking. But at this time, he saw Mr. Lu bending down and holding the dragon-patterned sword in his hand, looking for something in the grass.
of.
"Master Lu, I wonder if you are looking for this iron button?"
When Zheng Yao saw this, he immediately remembered that when Mr. Lu just passed by him, he saw an iron button on the jade belt around his waist. Now Mr. Lu is looking for something in the grass. Apparently this
An iron button belongs to the people of Mainland China.
Mr. Lu looked up and felt a sudden burst of joy. He grabbed the iron button, pressed it on the jade belt around his waist, and buttoned it again. Suddenly the button was hanging firmly on the jade belt.
"That's right! Thank you, little brother! Without this iron button, my jade belt would have made a fool of itself today!" Mr. Lu looked at Zhengyao and said with great gratitude.
When Zhengyao heard this, he couldn't help but smile. It seems that these officials are all desperate to save face and suffer. For just a button to make them so nervous is too exaggerated. Of course, this is because Zhengyao is not in the officialdom.
The reason for this confusion is that the etiquette and etiquette today are still very different from those in ancient times, so it is not surprising that Zheng Yao reflected on this.
"Haha, Mr. Lu is joking. Mr. Lu deliberately rescued us just now, and we haven't had time to thank him yet!" Zhengyao naturally understood that if Mr. Lu hadn't come over with a group of people just now, he would have scolded him a few more times.
He and his disciples from Shuzhou Guild Hall were still refused outside the gate and could not enter at all.
After listening to what Zhengyao said, Mr. Lu smiled happily and said: "Little brother, you misunderstood! I don't want to save you, but I don't want someone to think that I didn't let him in on purpose.
