"I see. I' ve heard of the lin family before. They say that they' re great benefactors. Last winter, they even saved more than a thousand victims. "
"Yes, the lin family. He treated the victims so well, let alone his own family. "
"Well, let's have a good drink today. "
Old Mr. Zhou smiled and let them say whatever they wanted. Finally, he said," you can' t even leave today. You' ve come to my place. If you don' t eat, drink, and go back, let the original brothers know that you' re not poking me in the back." "
As he spoke, he called out to the servant outside the door," ah qing, go to the lin family. Just tell my in-laws to help me prepare a table of food, good wine must not be stingy, bring me two jars. I'm gonna take care of the boys today, get drunk. "
"Yes, my lord. "
Ah qing happily ran away.a few of the officers looked at each other, and one of them said," brother, we drink. We still have business to do. Shangguan told us to see how the two of them were doing. You know, they're kind of ... Shangguan's afraid to be sloppy. "
"Oh, what are you talking about? You're all brothers. Who doesn't know what's important? I came here because of this, how could I not have done my best! Come on, let's go take a look and come back for a drink. "
Father zhou deserved to be forthright. He led them out of the house and soon arrived in front of the yao family's father and son's room.
The room has open windows, and you can see them all at once.
Old Mr. Yao leaned on the bed and read a book. Yao changming was sitting at the table and writing something. The father and son were very quiet. Her clothes were clean and tidy, and her complexion looked good, but it was much better than when she had just been sent over.
A few of the officers were a little surprised. After returning to the house, they asked a few questions. Father zhou stood up and looked at the lack of people outside. He whispered," I' m not hiding from you, brothers. I only have a daughter and married to the lin family. Son - in - law is a scholar, next year will be a big test, but the lack of a good gentleman guidance. As you know, those two are the best men in the world. So, my son - in - law would occasionally come over and ask for advice, and the two of them did their best.
If you say so, I can't slow them down. My son - in - law is honest, and every time he comes to get something for me, they have a share. Therefore, they looked much better than before.
Shangguan guan was also in a difficult position. He did not know how to treat the two of them, so it would be easy to take the blame if things didn't go well. I thought that if something happened to them, no one would have a hard time, so ah, just take care of it, and we'll see what happens in the future. "
The few officials didn' t expect father zhou to be so honest.
Therefore, they all answered," brother zhou, don' t worry. You go to this secluded place without any oil or water. If you don't make it convenient for your son-in-law, it's really boring. "
"That's right, these two people are great yue's heroes, but ... Hey, let's not talk so much. In short, elder brother zhou was a thoughtful man, so he would definitely have good news in the future. "
"Yes, shangguan's place. We' ll tell the truth when we get back. Shangguan was most relieved that you could come over and take care of the two of them. "
Father zhou happily cupped his hands with the others." Oh my, then I' ll thank the brothers." "
As he spoke, ah qing had already brought a carriage back.
Father zhou stood in front of the window and asked loudly," why are you back so soon? "
Ah qing ran to the window with a grin and replied," master, the old master of the lin family has said that it was not easy for the officials to come here and not to eat cold food. So, I asked the little man to bring a lot of ingredients along with the two kitchen maids. There were still a few boxes of snacks in the car and a basket of fruits. Grandpa lin said that he would let the officials eat the food to cushion their stomachs first. It would not be easy to get drunk after drinking. "
While they were talking, two maidservants in green robes had already jumped out of the carriage. They were twelve or thirteen years old and had delicate features. Their hands and feet were nimble as they moved things down from the carriage.
The snack box, the fruit basket, the water basin with the live fish, the pork ribs with the rope tied, and even two live chickens, a big basket of various vegetables ...
Very soon, a few of the officers served some snacks with tea. The fragrance of the rice cake was soft, and they all relaxed their eyebrows.
"Brother zhou, this place is so comfortable. I want to stay and work together. "
"Well, then, someone will drink with me in the future. "
Father zhou did not refuse to come, but caused a few officials to laugh," no, there is no oil water here, I still have to praise money to marry a wife." "
As he spoke and laughed, the sky slowly darkened. Soon, chu dong and shen kang also escorted the prisoners back from the stone field.
The prisoners were locked into the house, and chu dong and shen kang came to pay their respects. Everyone was in the same position. Although they weren' t familiar with each other, they couldn' t hold back any more common topics.
The two maids sent by the lin family were very agile.
Ah qing quickly set the table, and the dishes were served one after another.
Chicken stewed mushroom, sweet and sour pork ribs, garlic minced meat, cabbage, braised fish ...
Four cool four hot eight dishes, plus two good bottles of wine, so rich, so that the officers couldn't help but smile.
Everyone sat around, drinking, eating, and laughing without any scruples.
Father zhou poured a glass of wine for everyone and asked casually," what kind of background did you send this time? Are you like those two?" What am I gonna do about it? "
The officers all waved their hands. One of them smiled strangely and said in a low voice," brother zhou, don' t worry. This guy is a fool." It was said that he had been greedy for money from the disaster relief in the south. He was going to chop his head off, but his family saved his life and sent him to us to mine. He had money in his hand, and he was waiting for his family to find a way to forgive him. In fact, it was good enough to live. There was no way she could go out. Our shangguan took advantage of him and sent him to you. You don't have to worry about what other people do to him. "
"Well, then I see. If he is wise, find him a light job. "
Father zhou clinked glasses with the crowd and took a sip of wine. Another man added," brother, don' t say yes easily. You have to squeeze him for some oil." This man might have thought that he had a good day ahead of him. He had a haughty temper. If it weren't for the money, we wouldn't have waited on him. "
"That's right, he's still putting on airs. Let's not talk about whether or not he's going to make a name for himself in the future, but he's going to be in our hands right now. One of the officers patted chu dong and shen kang on the shoulder and smiled. "
"Alright, thank you for reminding me. Don' t worry, our stone field is broken and small, but it's still considered a copper mine territory. I don't care if he's a dragon or a tiger. Chu dong thanked him with a wine bowl in his hand.
Sure enough, several officers were delighted, one after another took the wine bowl, shouting," good brother, temper, I like, come, do a!" "
The wine was served in a dry bowl, and a meal of wine was not finished until the third day.
