Chapter 98 Night Invitation
Ouyang Mansion.
Under the light, Tan's pretty brows were tightly knitted into the Chinese character "Sichuan" and she didn't speak for a long time.
Aunt Zhao thought for a long time and then spoke softly, "Madam, please don't be angry. The eldest lady also has good intentions..."
Bang, Mrs. Tan slapped her hand on the table, and the anger she had been holding back finally came out, "How can she be so kind? She almost burned down the kitchen! I no longer expect her to do anything to make me feel comfortable.
, but why can't she let me calm down for a while? She got into trouble and didn't come out to admit her mistake. She actually hid in that bastard's house. Does she still take me seriously? Does she know what she is?
What’s your last name?”
Aunt Zhao felt helpless. That bastard was also named Ouyang. In terms of status, he should be the most noble among the children in the house. But what could she say? She could only blame outsiders for the trouble.
, "Don't you know what the temperament of your own eldest sister is? She is the easiest to be encouraged. If it weren't for the addition of someone who loves to mess around in the kitchen, the eldest lady wouldn't be seduced like this."
That's right! At this time, Mrs. Tan had forgotten that the man's food had saved her son's future. Instead, she blamed her daughter's recklessness on her, "It's really annoying! A wild girl from the country has no rules at all.
But I can’t drive him away, and I still don’t know how long I will keep that bastard, and even occupy Zhuang’er’s new house!”
The old and new grudges made Mr. Tan furious.
Aunt Zhao thought for a moment and realized that it was hard to offend Ouyang Kang directly, but Sister Mu was not afraid. She was nothing more than a country girl. How much could the young master protect her?
So he came up with a plan, "Madam, there is no need to worry. Since that girl is an outsider, just find a way to make her unable to stay."
But how to find the fault?
Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "Let me do this."
Just as he was about to ask more questions, he suddenly heard the boy responsible for monitoring Ouyang Kang reporting, "General Gongsun of the Water Dragon Team has sent someone to invite the eldest young master and Sister Mu out."
Tan was stunned, "Why did he come to invite the young master?"
The boy couldn't explain why. "He said he was not allowed to take anyone with him. He sent two soldiers to pick him up."
The shadow in Tan's heart became heavier again.
Compared with the fact that his daughter almost burned down the kitchen, Ouyang Kang's behavior is more worthy of vigilance. He had only been in the capital for a few days, so how could he have colluded with Gongsun Hong? Did they invite him out so late? Did they have something to hide before?
The more Tan thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and he inevitably went to Ouyang Jin to apply eye drops.
"Don't you think it's strange that the fire broke out that day? Why did Gongsun Hong come when the fire started? And the previous fire couldn't be extinguished no matter how hard it was put out. But as soon as the people from the Water Dragon Team came, the fire was extinguished. Will this happen?
meeting……"
She deliberately kept it secret, thinking that Ouyang Jin should think negatively about Ouyang Kang and Gongsun Hong. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Jin thought about it, but came to a completely different opinion than her.
"It seems that this time around Zhuang'er's banquet, I should also leave a post for Duke Ding's Mansion."
Seeing him starting to scheme again, Mr. Tan was speechless. How could he think of how to curry favor with the powerful?
Turning around, she went to find Ouyang Zhuang again, "I'm afraid your brother should not be underestimated."
Ouyang Zhuang is different from his father, "Mom, if I really have a capable eldest brother, don't you think this is a good thing? His biological mother is no longer here, and you are his legitimate mother. Treat him before he gets married.
It's better, won't it be a help in the future? Anyway, I have passed the exam now, and I have a promising future. If my eldest brother can also find a future, won't he help me in the future?"
There was no need to be polite to Mrs. Tan and her biological son, and they immediately started scolding, "Why are you so naive? It's like rice in the same pot. If you let him fill it, won't you be short of it? This family is the product of my hard work.
I have saved up, why should I let this family fortune go to waste for an outsider?"
Ouyang Zhuang was also a little unhappy, "Mom, I know you have been planning carefully for this family over the years and have put a lot of thought into it, but if there is no father, how can you save the family business by yourself? The eldest brother is my father's son.
, he should also have a share."
Tan was so angry that he was almost speechless, "Okay. I won't tell you anything else. I'll just tell you that your eldest brother just invited Gongsun Hong. You should know his family, right? You have been in the capital for so many years, is there anything you can do?
Establish a relationship with that family? But your good brother has only been here a few days, how can he be invited to be a guest? You have seen how our family has treated him over the years. Do you think if you
After being treated like this, how can you calmly support your brother? Think about it for yourself!"
Tan left angrily, but Ouyang Zhuang's heart was still disturbed by her words.
Yes, if he were put in Ouyang Kang's situation, left in the countryside and neglected for so many years, and finally had a chance to turn around, would he generously forgive his brother who was separated from him?
The people in the Ouyang family don't know that they are actually thinking about things in a complicated way. If anyone is willing to ask Miss Ouyang who has already hid in her room, she will definitely tell them in a carefree manner,
"General Gongsun wanted to ask Sister Mu to cook. My eldest brother was worried, so he went with him."
The truth of the matter is this.
It was still the small courtyard of the Water Dragon Team, and it was still the kitchen of the Water Dragon Team. Nianfu rolled up his sleeves again and started to barbecue with resignation.
"I'm sorry to trouble you so late." A young man who was as tall as Gongsun Hong, but much more honest and serious than him explained to Ouyang Kang with a smile, "I really couldn't find a good place to eat out, so I just made it last minute.
I came here on my own initiative. If you don't mind, brother, please come over and have a drink."
What do you and I have to drink? Ouyang Kang secretly rolled his eyes angrily, thinking that Gongsun Hong was so anxious to ask Nianfu to cook for something important, but he didn't expect that it was just a drink with a few friends.
He was about to say that he would not join in the fun, but Nianfu agreed on his behalf, "Okay, but our eldest young master is not very good at drinking, so you are not allowed to bully him. If you dare to bully him, I will do it very hard."
I’ll give you the barbecue to eat!”
The young man smiled and said, "I don't dare. Brother Ouyang, please."
Ouyang Kang still wanted to refuse, but he received the signal in Nianfu's eyes. Many friends, many paths, don't be pretentious, go for it!
In the past, Ouyang Kang might not have taken it seriously, but Ouyang, who had suffered many setbacks in the capital, learned a lot. After thinking about it, he calmed down and went out with others.
"I don't know what your surname is, how do you call me?"
The young man smiled cheerfully and said, "My surname is Duan. I am the seventh eldest in the family. You can just call me Duan Qi. Gongsun is the youngest among us. As for that one, you can just call him Gongzi."
Ouyang Kang was not stupid. He knew that this person didn't want to tell the truth, so he didn't ask around. But someone who could make a prodigal like Gongsun Hong call him "gongzi" must not be an ordinary person, right?
Little Chef Mu also thought the same way, so she had to roast the meat well today, and maybe she could get a bigger reward, which would be just the start-up capital. With a great dream in mind, Little Chef Mu started working hard.
The crescent moon is curved and the stars are faint.
There were no lights in the yard, and it was difficult to see everyone's appearance. This was best, because Ouyang Kang didn't have to worry about his face being stared at all the time.
It's just that although he came, he couldn't get in the conversation because the young master and Gongsun Hong and Duan Qi kept talking about their marches and wars in the past. However, since Young Master Ouyang was willing to come, he naturally put down his dignity and started to talk seriously.
Listening to them talk is quite enjoyable.
"I'm late, so I'll drink a bottle of wine as a punishment!" Suddenly another young man came over, wearing a high crown, sandals, and fluttering sleeves, dressed as a Taoist priest. At this time, he happened to be stepping on the moon, and he seemed to be a Taoist master.
style.
Seeing that there was not enough space, Ouyang Kang hurriedly stood up to give way, and asked the soldier to add a stool and sit down next to him.
It was dark at night, so the man didn't pay much attention to Ouyang Kang. He stepped forward, slapped the wine jar away, and started sifting the wine.
Duan Qi took a deep breath and said, "It's really good wine. Could it be from Xiao Du's house in Tongji Fang? But his house doesn't sell wine at dusk. Where did you get it?"
"You have a really sharp nose. If they don't sell it anymore, why don't I buy it in advance and keep it?"
As Ouyang Kang got closer, he noticed a little red paper on the mouth of the altar. However, his eyes flashed and he didn't say much.
On the contrary, the young master smiled and said, "Stop pretending. A whole jar of wine like this is probably stolen from someone as a gift to your father, right?"
The Taoist priest smiled and said, "You are a young master after all, and you really have a good eye. But I took such a big risk to steal it, so please don't make any noise after drinking it, otherwise if I get slapped later, I will have to come find you!"
The young master smiled and shook his head, "It's not that I have good eyesight. I just saw that Mr. Ouyang had a different expression, so I deceived you, but I didn't expect it to be true."
Ouyang Kang didn't expect the topic to suddenly fall on him. In his hurry, Shengzhi pointed to the mouth of the altar and started laughing, "It's not that I have good eyesight. I just saw the red confetti here looked different, so I was a little surprised."
Everyone was silent and suddenly burst into laughter.
"He Laoliu, He Laoliu, you still claim to have a clever plan and a perfect plan. You have left such a big flaw, and you have the nerve to take advantage of it?"
He Liu touched his nose and said, "I didn't expect that Pindao's great reputation would be ruined by this piece of paper today. Carelessness, really carelessness! Come on, Mr. Ouyang, since this piece of paper is the only one who expresses his grievances to you, then please do it on his behalf.
Drink this drink!”
Ouyang Kang took it with a smile and took a sip, but he didn't expect that the wine smelled bland, but it was extremely spicy in his mouth. When he was about to spray it, he felt rude and had to endure the burning.
But as soon as I swallowed it, I tasted the sweet and pure aftertaste of the wine. I couldn't help but praise, "It's really a good wine!"
He Liutiao raised his thumb and praised, "This wine has a nickname, it's spicy enough to kill you. Most people who drink it for the first time will squirt it directly. I can't tell that you are soft and weak, but you are strong in your bones. Where are you?
House's?"
