After the meal, Liu Zhongxiu washed his hands and rinsed his mouth under the service of the maid, and said to the four people on the table: "You are leaving for Beijing tomorrow, I have asked Master Huang to find a bodyguard and send the servants in the mansion to take you back, so that you Keep you safe on the road."
The four stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your hospitality during this time."
Liu Zhongxiu put down the Sipa in his hand and looked at Brother Rui, and said with a smile: "Brother Rui is my nephew, and you call him brothers and sisters, the relationship is not normal, so you can be regarded as my nephew when you think about it. When you were in the capital, your father had some friendship with me in private, so it was only right to take care of you."
"Second Uncle don't need to be self-effacing. If we don't have you entertaining us with good wine and food when we come to Suzhou this time, we are afraid that we will live on the streets and sleep in the open."
"Stinky boy, you are talking nonsense again, stay back and let your grandfather beat you so hard that you can't get out of bed."
Liu Jiarui laughed and joked, "Second Uncle, when you return to Beijing, I am afraid that your grandfather will reprimand you more than me."
As soon as this remark came out, Liu Zhongxiu said sadly: "I haven't seen your grandfather for ten years? I don't know if he is in good health or not?"
"Don't worry, Erbo, the portrait of grandfather that my nephew brought to you when he came here was painted by the most famous landscape master in the capital. I have secretly peeked at it twice, and the person in the painting already has seven or eight grandfathers. If you don¡¯t believe me, you will know when you return to Beijing in the spring of next year, and your grandfather is in good health, punching, drinking, and cursing every day, not bad, not bad.¡±
Liu Zhongxiu was tongue-tied: This brat doesn't know how much face your grandfather will save in front of outsiders.
Seeing this, the other three people lowered their heads one after another, pretending not to hear.
However, Liu Jiarui did not hesitate, and continued: "Second Uncle, I was with my grandfather when I was young, and he always told me embarrassing things about you when you were young, and every time I heard it, I couldn't help but laugh out loud."
The three of them wanted to go out immediately, Ziyuan was afraid that he would make a habit of talking non-stop again, so he didn't see if the person in front of him was someone he could joke about? Thinking of Shibo's fox-like cunning thoughts, he couldn't help but sweat deeply for him.
"Ahem" Liu Zhongxiu blushed, fearing that he might say something shocking to the world, he hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Rui, have you packed your bags yet?"
"Second Uncle, you don't need to worry about it. I have a servant to clean it up for me. Second Uncle, is there anything else my nephew would like to ask for your help?"
"What's the matter?"
"May I bother you to write a letter to my grandfather?"
"At the beginning of the month, I just sent a letter home to your grandfather, and everything that should be explained has been stated in the letter. I also said that you will leave for Beijing tomorrow. You don't know anything about my side. If your grandfather asks you, answer truthfully. That's right."
Liu Jiarui rubbed his head and flattered him: "Second Uncle, to tell you the truth, my grandfather has always disciplined me very strictly. If I return to Beijing this time and find out that I have not learned civil and military skills, I am afraid that he will swing a big knife to kill me, so" His eyes looked at him pitifully.
"But you want me to write a letter home praising you?"
"Second uncle is worthy of being Zhuge among men, and he is very clever."
Brother Yi snorted coldly by the side. Fortunately, he followed his parents as a foreigner back then, otherwise he would have looked so cynical if he stayed in the capital.
Liu Zhongxiu smiled wryly: He was also very afraid of his father's posture of using a big sword, so he patted his shoulder and said with sympathy: "This matter is on the second uncle."
Liu Jiarui got the guarantee, and the corners of his mouth grinned so much that his big white teeth could be seen.
At this moment, the maids came in one after another, lowered their heads and quietly removed the food on the table, and there was a maid on the wife's side who removed the screen placed between them. place.
Liu Zhongxiu glanced at Liu Yatou from time to time, and saw that she lowered her head and fiddled with the suet white jade bracelet on her wrist, as if she liked that bracelet very much.
However, the wife has been paying attention to Mei'er's expression, today she is very abnormal, not as lively and talkative as before, but a little reserved, secretly laughing, she is a big girl, she is shy and at a loss with a foreigner.
Brother Yi was sitting beside him, but his eyes sometimes glanced at the third sister and sometimes at Cao Jiguang. After all, before dinner, the third sister looked at him with a terrified expression. The two of them seemed to have some secrets, so they couldn't help spying on the two of them. clues.
Wei Tingmao raised his head and happened to meet Liu Xiangwan's eyes, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, but that smile was very permeating in Liu Xiangwan's eyes.
Only Song Tianming waved his fan and looked like a glamorous young master, looking at this person and that person from time to time, with a smile on his mouth all the time, but he didn't know what he was laughing at, as if all kinds of things in the world were in his eyes. The actor on the stage, and he is the one watching the opera sitting opposite.
half an hournbsp;The fourth sister, the fifth sister and the seventh sister had already walked back, only the third sister dragged her to stand here half a cup of tea with her paternal majesty who wanted to eavesdrop but was afraid.
In the end, the third sister was still no match for the curious Xiaosi in her heart, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet: "You go back first."
Guessing what she would say, Liu Xiangwan nodded with a smile.
At this time, it was already nightfall, and Zhaoyin lit a lantern in front of her, and said: "Girl, walk slowly, and be careful on the road under your feet."
"Well, you should also be careful." Liu Xiangwan said worriedly when she saw her looking back at her while lighting the lantern.
The two master and servant walked to the corner, and saw a black shadow swaying back and forth not far away. Zhaoyin was so frightened that he tightly held the lantern stick in his hand. Liu Xiangwan couldn't help but tighten his expression. Extinguish, but here is a corner, they have never walked the night road at this time, especially at this moment, the moon is dark and the wind is high, the wind is rustling, the master and servant are so frightened that they can't help but tremble.
