Chapter 48 Nine Chapters Jade (Additional update for all readers!)(1/2)
The pot of tea on the windowsill has already been brewed, and the temperature is just right at this time.
Chu Yuzhi went to pick it up and flipped over five tea cups, all of which were half full. With a turn of his hand, the five cups of tea fell lightly into the right place.
This seat today.
Zuo Guangshu spoke very little.
As the host, Qu Shunhua entertained the guests enthusiastically, and as the host and guest, Jiang Wang also cooperated very well.
Chu Yuzhi, on the other hand, acted quite sincerely, neither hiding his affection for Ye Lan'er nor praising Jiang Wang.
However, his expression was very measured, neither arrogant nor too flattering, and always maintained a distance that would not offend anyone.
As for Yelan'er...
Jiang Wang didn't understand much and wasn't curious.
Perhaps after he also achieves the Divine Presence, he will become curious about Ye Lan'er and wonder about her strength in the Divine Presence.
While a few people were chatting, Qu Shunhua suddenly asked again: "I heard from Guangshu that Brother Jiang asked if the banquet here can be packed?"
Jiang Wang was greatly embarrassed.
He mentioned it casually to Zuo Guangshu earlier that he just habitually stocked up delicious food for An An.
Knowing that today's banquet was hosted by Duke Huai, how could he have the nerve to say "package"?
What made him even more angry was that Huangliangtai, which he came to at the same time as Zuo Guangshu, never left his sight. When did this kid tell Qu Shunhua?
Why are you saying everything?
"I asked Guangshu so much before because I was a little ignorant and didn't know where Huangliang Terrace was." Jiang Wang was a little embarrassed, but said sincerely: "I also wanted to bring some to my friends to try!"
"No problem, leave this matter to me." Qu Shunhua said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, when will you leave Chu, I will help you prepare."
Jiang Wang refused deliberately. If it were him, he would not accept the favor in vain.
But thinking about the beauty of this place today...
How can An An not be allowed to taste the beauty in this world?
When the words came to his lips, they became: "Then I would be disrespectful."
"Brother Jiang doesn't treat me as an outsider, that's my blessing." Qu Shunhua smiled in his eyes and asked: "We are going to have a seat anyway. How many people does Brother Jiang want?"
How many more people can be served?
Jiang Wang was overjoyed and immediately said: "For two, for two!"
Then he thought that Lingxiao Pavilion was the territory of a certain person named Ye after all, and he still had to take care of his face, otherwise, would he be irritated again when we meet next time?
After thinking about this, he said: "Let's share it with three people."
Then I thought about how senior Ah Chou, the Zongzong Divine Beast, has a bad temper, so he should give him some face. As the saying goes, don’t worry about the scarcity but the inequality. If you invite the Pavilion Master but not the Zongzhen Divine Beast, will it happen?
What if you want to make him angry? What if An An gets into trouble?
So he said: "For four people. Yes, four people."
He is counting things one at a time, so if someone who is not familiar with him sees him, they will inevitably think that he is trying to get more than he wants and is greedy.
Qu Shunhua felt that Brother Jiang was really sweet-tempered, straightforward and cute, and chuckled: "Then it should be for five people. I guess Brother Jiang forgot to include himself."
What a good girl!
It goes so well with Guangshu!
Jiang Wang was very touched and stood up directly: "What can I say? My dear sister-in-law, I'll give you a toast with tea instead of wine!"
"Brother Jiang, don't call me that, we haven't reached that stage yet." Qu Shunhua refused, with shame on his face, but he stood up and raised his glass.
He also reached out and pushed Zuo Guangshu: "Brother Jiang has stood up, can you still sit down?"
Zuo Guangshu's ears were red, but he still stood up holding the tea cup.
This scene is very much like a newlywed couple serving tea to their elders.
Jiang Wang struck while the iron was hot: "I'm determined to call you my sister-in-law! I don't recognize anyone except you!"
Of course Ye Lan'er knew what Qu Shunhua was thinking, and he smiled when he heard this: "I heard this!"
Chu Yuzhi laughed even more and said: "I should bear witness to this statement!"
It's a banquet, and the guests and hosts in my building are enjoying themselves.
…
…
The actual meal didn't take much time, but it took a few hours to chat and drink a few bottles of wine after the meal.
Jiang Wang talked about his experiences traveling around the world, and Qu Shunhua talked about the legends of Chu. Everyone laughed and left the table.
The carriage left Huangliang Terrace, seemingly taking away the eager atmosphere.
In the carriage, Jiang Wang held Zuo Guangshu's hand and said drunkenly: "Guangshu, please listen to my brother's advice. This Shunhua is a good girl, you must not let her go."
Zuo Guangshu twitched his hand in disgust, but failed to do so: "Isn't it just a meal? Why should it be more than this! Let go of your hand first."
"How are you talking! Are you the one who wants to have a meal? Of course the banquet in Huangliangtai is really good..." Jiang Wang squeezed his hands tighter: "But brother Wei has seen Shunhua's quality.
!She’s good! Very nice!”
Zuo Guangshu stepped back to avoid the spitting star: "Of course I know she is very good."
"I know, what next?" Jiang Wang sighed worriedly: "Guangshu, you should marry her sooner!"
Zuo Guangshu was silent for a moment and said: "If you haven't accomplished your career, how can you start a family?"
Jiang Wang rolled his eyes and was very dissatisfied: "You two princes, the top dignitaries of Chu, what more achievements do you want?"
Zuo Guangshu said in a low voice: "That is the Zuo family's achievement, not mine."
"Guangshu." Jiang Wang was just threatening, but changed his tone to Huairou, and said sincerely: "I am a brother for your own good. Life is long and short. The pursuers of such a good girl are like crucian carp crossing the river.
, I don’t know how many people in the world are thinking about it! If you don’t take advantage of it now, I’m afraid you’ll regret it later!”
"I took good care of it." Zuo Guangshu said unconvinced: "Every time she comes back to look for me, I accompany her. I often go to look for her when I have time. Whenever I go somewhere, I never forget it.
Her gift."
Jiang Wang suffocated for a moment and then said: "I'm talking about certainty! Do you understand certainty?"
He looked sideways and said in an old-fashioned way: "Young people today are uncertain. The world is changing so fast, and it is common for people to break up after an engagement. How can you say that you are committed to the marriage? If you want to truly get married, you have to
Only when the identity of husband and wife is established can we be sure of it. Do you understand?"
Zuo Guangshu thought for a while and asked, "Do you understand it well?"
Lord Jiang was speechless for a moment.
"Unlucky boy!" He flicked Zuo Guangshu's hand away: "If you don't listen to big brother, you will suffer a loss in front of you. Just wait until you regret it!"
"I didn't listen." Zuo Guangshu felt aggrieved: "But I'm only sixteen years old, will I get married at sixteen?"
Lord Jiang hummed: "Sixteen is not too early. You have ambitions but not your youth, do you understand?"
"Brother Jiang, how old are you?" Zuo Guangshu asked.
The carriage drove down the long street.
Sauvignon Blanc sings in the sheath.
After three breaths, Jiang Wang decided to forget this topic completely.
"Speaking of which..." He was no longer drunk at this time and said thoughtfully: "Just now Qu Shunhua said that he was going to see Zen Master Yue... do you know who he is?"
Brother Jiang didn't say anything about getting married soon, Zuo Guangshu was happy and relaxed, and casually said: "Yue Tiannu, sister of the Qu family invited me to help with the mountain and sea realm."
Yuetiannu? This name is quite strange...
"How strong is this person?" Jiang Wang asked seriously: "Do you know what he is good at and what he is not good at?"
"The strength should not be bad, the peak of Wailou Realm..." Zuo Guangshu paused here, and said with some suspicion: "What do you want to do?"
"Analyze your opponent." Jiang Wang said matter-of-factly: "Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle!"
Zuo Guangshu was shocked.
Who are these people?
Just now, I was urging Qu Shunhua and I to get married quickly, but why did we become rivals again in the blink of an eye?
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Wang stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Zuo Guangshu: "Aren't we not married yet? Then we are still two families. In the mountains and seas, we compete fairly! Tell me, what is Yuetiannu's background?
?”
Zuo Guangshu was stunned for a moment, but he still said obediently: "He is a disciple of Xiyue Temple."
"Xiyue Temple?"
"The great clan of the Northern Territory, the friendship established by the Qu family in the early years. Does Brother Jiang know about it?"
"Oh, not very familiar."
