Yan Jiting, where the Yu family lives, is located in the northeast of Shilingting Pavilion where the children of the Xiang family live. It is about the same distance from Shilingting Pavilion to Shilingting Town. However, the administrative division of Yan Jiting in this era belongs to Ling County, Dongjun, and Shilingting Pavilion where the children of the Xiang family live belongs to Xiaxiang County, Sishui County. When they go to Yan Jiting, they not only have to leave the county, but also have to leave the county. Sometimes they are checked by the officials of Dongjun, which is quite troublesome. Therefore, among the surrounding pavilions, the Xiang family's children of Yan Jiting have visited the least. Xiang Kang, who had just traveled through time, has never been to Yan Jiting in person.

This situation is destined to change. After carefully understanding the specific situation of the famous wealthy family of Yanjiting from the Xiang family, he repeatedly considered the feasibility of the matter. On the way home, Xiang Kang made up his mind and decided to visit the Yu family at Yanjiting the next day. He relied on his own words to repair the relationship between the Xiang family and the Yu family, so that the Yu family, who had tried to curry favor with the Xiang family but was rejected, revere the Xiang family as guests of honor, and give himself a good place to eat and drink frequently. The knight-style atmosphere in this era is prevalent, and it is not too embarrassing to go to the wealthy family to eat and drink.

Unfortunately, Xiang Kang made up his mind, but the Xiang family's children changed their minds one after another, including Xiang Ta who first encouraged his uncles to make friends with the Yu family, shook his head, and instead advised Xiang Kang, the uncle of the tribe, not to think about it or go to Yanjiting to make trouble. It was just a trivial matter to have a waste of face, and the Yu family made the Yu family laugh at him. No one of the children of the Xiang family could stand it.

In the end, Xiang Kang had no choice but to say: "Then that's it. Brother, you go to Yanjiting with me. When you get there, you find a place to play by yourself. I will visit the Yu family alone. If it is done, you can go in and see Mr. Yu again. If it is not done, I will go home with you and not lose your face. I will do this, right?"

Xiang Kang said this to this point, and of course the children of the Xiang family couldn't insist on refusing. They agreed one after another with the same thoughts that they were wandering around. The next morning, after having a simple breakfast, he went out with Xiang Kang, heading east and north, and successfully arrived at Yanjiting on the banks of the Diqiu River, and soon found the Yu family's residence.

The closer they were to the Yu family's house, the more uneasy the Xiang family's children felt. However, Xiang Kang was calm and calm. When he could see the Yu family's gate, he said to the Xiang family's children: "Dear brothers, okay, go and play with you. I'll visit Mr. Yu. In a while, the people from the Yu family will invite you in as guests."

The children of the Xiang family nodded one after another, but Xiang Zhuang asked with great concern: "Xiang Kang, do you really want to go alone? What if the people from the Yu family don't see you?"

"Don't worry, I'm sure." Xiang Kang said confidently: "You just go and play, just wait for a while to drink, eat meat and be a guest."

It would be strange if Xiang Zhuang dared to rest for no reason. After looking around at the Xiang family's children, Xiang Zhuang suddenly pointed to Xiang, who was a generation younger than him, and ordered: "Xiang Zhi, you go with Xiang Kang. If there is any situation, come out to find us immediately."

"Why do you want me to go?" Xiang Ta was displeased and said, "What if the Yu family doesn't see us? You have been hiding far away, so where can I put my face?"

"Stop talking nonsense, this idea is the first one you think of. Who will you go if you don't?" Xiang Zhuang forced him: "Go quickly. If the Xiang family dares to bully you, you can come to us immediately to report the news, and we will come to them immediately to settle the accounts."

Xiang Kang was still extremely reluctant, but Xiang Kang had already strode towards the Yu family's gate. Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Han and other uncles pushed Xiang Tao and pushed each other. Xiang Tao had no choice but to swallow his anger and chase Xiang Kang and walked side by side, talking all the way to vent his dissatisfaction. Xiang Kang ignored it, but just strode forward with the eyes of the Xiang family's children, walked straight to the Yu family's door, bowed to the old servant of the Yu family who was guarding the door, and said loudly: "I'm sorry to report to the noble owner, Duke Yu, who is the descendant of Xiang Yan, Duke Xiang, Xiang Kang, a descendant of Xiang Yan, the former general of Chu, and Xiang Tao, come to visit."

"Therefore, the descendant of Xiang Yan, the general of Chu?" The old servant guarding the gate was a little stunned when he heard this and asked back: "Who Xiang Yan, the Duke Xiang Yan?"

"Zhu Zi, don't even know my tall father (great-grandfather)? Are you still...?"

Xiang Ta, who was extremely proud of his family background, was displeased when he heard this, and was about to have an attack. Xiang Kang quickly stopped him and said, "It was the Xiang Yangong who defeated the Qin general Li Xin fifteen years ago in Chengfu. He also had a Chu accent and was not young. He had never heard of his name, right?"

It was Xiang Kang who mentioned the last big victory before the fall of Chu State. The old servant of the Yu family, who was over fifty years old, came back to his senses and remembered Xiang Yan, a famous general of Chu State who was once deeply loved by the people of Chu State. The old servant did not hesitate and hurriedly said, "The two young men wait a moment, and the younger one will go in and report to the master."

After saying that, the old servant really quickly walked into the door and reported to Mr. Yu. Xiang Kang said to Xiang: "Xiang, keep calm. We are guests. We cannot forget the courtesy of the host and guest. Let others laugh at our Xiang family as a famous family, but not the etiquette of the famous family."

Xiang Kang was so angry that Xiang did not dare to disobey her reprimand. He quickly agreed honestly, lowered his voice and said, "But Uncle Ji, will Gong Yu see us?"

"See you, of course." Xiang Kang was still confident and said, "But we came too suddenly after all. If I guessed correctly, we would have to wait for a while before we could see people."

After being exposed by Xiang Kang, he waited for about twenty minutes in front of the Yu family. When Xiang Kang grabbed Xiang Ji, who wanted to leave for the third time, the old servant who had gone to report before led a young man in a deep dress and introduced Xiang Kang and Xiang Ji: "Two young masters, this is Yu Zhi, the young master of my family."

Xiang Kang looked at the young man named Yu Zhi carefully. Seeing that he was in his early twenties, he looked quite handsome, but his expression was filled with unconcealed pride. He deliberately did not rush to speak or salute, and waited for his actions to take action. However, Xiang Kang certainly could not be too scrupled at this time. He could only take the initiative to salute Yu and said, "I have met Mr. Yu in the next step. This is my nephew Xiang."

After glanced at the patch on the sleeve of Xiang Kang's deep clothes, Yu Zhi returned the gift casually, and said with a smile: "Young Master Xiang, why are you here to visit your father?"

"An important thing." Xiang Kangbin replied politely, saying, "But it is of great importance, so he can only discuss face-to-face with Lingzun. He also asked his son to report to Mr. Yu on his behalf and ask Mr. Yu to meet him in person."

"Young Master, forgive me for your sins. My father is plagued by mundane affairs and cannot meet guests." Yu Zhi smiled even more hypocritical and said, "If it is convenient for you, please tell me directly. If it is inconvenient for you, please..."

Yu Zhi deliberately did not finish the words of expelling guests indirectly, and deliberately dragged the tail sound very long, and the smile on his face was full of mockery and contempt. Xiang Ta was furious when he saw it, and subconsciously clenched his fists. Xiang Kang grabbed him, and then smiled and said, "The villagers all say that Mr. Yu has good education. Now it seems that it is better to be famous than to meet, which is a big disappointment."

"What do you mean?" Yu Zhi changed his face.

"What does it mean?" Xiang Kang smiled and said, "Brother Yu, you should have read some books? I must know that the title of Prince was extremely noble during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Only the children of princes and nobles could claim the word "Prince". Although this title is already a bit widely used, it is not something that ordinary people can take on. Brother Yu, you have a little family fortune, but you are just a commoner. I respectfully call you "Prince", but you are just polite, but you accept it calmly, and you refuse to say a humble word. You are arrogant and arrogant, and you have surpassed this point. Isn't it true that Mr. Yu's family education is unknown?"

"this……."

Yu Zhi was a little speechless, but Xiang Ta next to him was very happy and immediately said, "Uncle Ji is right. A little civilian dares to recognize himself as a prince and grandson. He doesn't know that the world is high."

"And," Xiang Kang said in a big way: "Although our Xiang family is poor now, it is a famous general of the Chu State. After condescending to visit your Yu family. Even if Mr. Yu is troubled by something and cannot meet, Brother Yu, you should politely invite us into the house and explain the reason in person. But Brother Yu, you don't invite us into the door, and you are unwilling to treat us with courtesy. You just ask us what we want. Is this way of treating guests the style of your Yu family?"

"When my eldest father went to pay homage to your uncle, your uncle was like this to our eldest father!" Yu Zhi was so angry that he mentioned the past, and said angrily: "If you want to be rude, it is the Xiang family that is rude first!"

"I have heard of what happened back then." Xiang Kang said without blinking his eyelids, "But don't forget that I was only three or four years old at that time. Brother Yu, you were only seven or eight years old at the time. Do we, the old things that happened to our elders more than ten years ago, should we juniors remember them in our hearts?"

"Besides, we all learned from the story of that year through oral communication that when Brother Yu, your eldest father, Duke Yu, came to our Xiang family and was rejected, who could know if my two uncles were really troubled and could not leave to meet Duke Yu, causing Duke Yu to misunderstand that he thought that our Xiang family was arrogant? Brother Yu, can you be sure of this?"

Yu Zhi was speechless, and Xiang Kangze smiled and bowed again, saying, "Brother Yu, one thing goes back to another. When Lian Po and Lin Xiangru misunderstand each other, we should not talk about those unhappy old things. I am visiting my nephew today. There are indeed important matters that I want to discuss with Lingzun Yu in person. I hope Brother Yu will report to Yu quickly, so as not to lose the courtesy of treating guests, insult Yu Gong's reputation, and violate filial piety."

It is against filial piety if my father did not invite him to come forward to meet the Xiang family. This logic is too complicated. Yu Zhi, a native of Qin and Han dynasties, really didn't know how to refute it for a while. He could only be on the spot and didn't know how to deal with it. Fortunately, a cough came from behind the door in time, and then a middle-aged man wearing a deep white dress and a scarf walked out with a smile and scolded Yu Zhi: "Zhi'er, Mr. Xiang is right. You are a little rude. Please apologize to the two Mr. Xiang."

After scolding Xiang Zhi, the middle-aged man turned to Xiang Kang and Xiang Da, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile: "In Xiayu, I have seen two young masters Xiang. They forgive me for their crimes. They have just had something to do and failed to go out to greet the marquis in time. They can only let the dog son do their jobs for him. They never thought that the dog son was rude and had been negligent to the two young masters. I hope they will forgive me even if they don't want them to do it."

"Mr. Yu said it, we are taking the liberty." Xiang Kang returned the favor and said with a smile: "I came to visit the door rashly, and I went out to greet him in person, and I was surprised by my nephew."

"If it weren't for your ancestors' sake, would you think I would come out to greet you, a little boy?" Yu Jian complained in his stomach, but his smile was still kind, and he quickly invited him: "Young Master Xiang is really good at speaking. Please come in. Let me ask someone to arrange a small wine. Please ask the two young masters to attend the table first, and then listen to your elders' advice."

"Is there really a drink? This trip is not in vain!"

When Xiang Ta heard this, he quickly saluted Xiang Kang and thanked him in a decent manner. At the invitation of Yu Jian, he swaggered into the Yu family with Xiang Kang. Although Yu Zhi looked extremely ugly, he did not dare to disobey his father's decision. He could only swallow his anger and followed the last door. He quietly spitted at Xiang Kang and Xiang Da's back, and cursed in a slight voice: "Bah! A deprived child!"

Xiang Kang and Xiang entered the door, but as soon as their front feet entered, a string of heads appeared behind a house in the distance, and said softly: "I've gone in, have you really been in? Or have you been invited? If I had known that I could really go in, we should have gone with Xiang Kang!"
