Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

Chapter 78 A pleasant conversation with politeness and conflict [Thank you readers for your support!

"Congratulations on your promotion, brother." Sheng Hong approached Xu Minghua with a smile.

"Thank you, cousin! How is your aunt's health lately?" Xu Minghua asked.

"My mother is in good health. Thank you for your concern, brother."

"Okay, okay, please come inside, please come inside."

Sheng Hong and several nephews of the Xu family nodded, and under the guidance of the servants, they came to the Men's Guest House.

Entering the courtyard, Sheng Hong looked around and saw mostly military attachés.

Everyone was slightly startled when they saw Sheng Hong dressed in the casual attire of a civil servant. Sheng Hong did not think he was a superior civil servant and looked down on others. Instead, he held his hands in a gesture like his colleagues.

Yuan Bingkai, the Duke of Earl Zhongqin in the crowd, turned his head and walked over with a smile on his face.

"Man Shanda?"

Sheng Hong's eyes turned sharply and he found the information corresponding to this distinguished noble: "Sir Yuan?"

"We met once before, but I didn't expect to meet again. Congratulations to Mr. Shanda for winning the award from the Ministry of Officials. This time, I can't wait to go to Beijing."

"Uncle, thank you, thank you."

When the other nobles heard this, they also knew that this was a civil servant with a prosperous career, so they naturally raised their hands and saluted.

As he spoke, Yuan Bingkai waved not far away, and two young men walked over.

"This is my eldest son, Yuan Wenchun."

"I've met Shanda people."

"This is my Erlang, Yuan Wenshao."

"I've met Shanda people."

"Okay, Erlang and his uncle came to the Xu family that day."

"Sheng Shanda has a good memory."

The steward of the Xu family announced that they could sit down, and the distinguished military officers in the courtyard were carefully arranged at their respective tables.

When the female steward saw that Sheng Hong was chatting well with Uncle Yuan, she naturally arranged for them to get together.

Sheng Hong has been an official for many years and is already extremely smooth. He chatted with several military attachés at the table, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

This was very helpful to several military attachés who had experienced being disliked by civilian officials. They pushed cups and changed cups on the table, which was very harmonious.

As the host and hostess, Xu Minghua took his son and Sun took his daughter to toast the male and female guests to thank them.

When toasting,

Xu Zaijing watched Shanshanda and Uncle Yuan chatting happily.

It sounds like I want to go to Fanlou to discuss official culture and hard life after the end.

After all, one was abused by his concubine when he was a child, and the other's family was in dire straits when he was a child.

They all suffered hardship.

Ms. Sun was on the female guests' side, holding a drink of fruit juice and chatting and laughing with the female guests at the banquet.

The eldest lady of the Viscount Xie family also saw her daughter again after a long time.

Looking at Miss Xie Er, she still likes to laugh as much as she did at her parents’ home, and there is no gloomy look in her eyes.

After asking the maid from the Xie family who came as a dowry, she felt relieved when she heard that Mrs. Sun had not kept anyone in Zaiduan's room, and that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious.

He even went to Mrs. Wu's table to propose a glass of fruit wine and praise Mrs. Wu.

the other side,

The four eldest ladies of the Huyan family and the eldest ladies of Ruyanghou sat at the same table. After all, they were related by marriage.

Previously, thanks to the influence of Mrs. Jinghaihou, they (the Bao family's wives) were used to making sarcastic remarks about the third, fourth and fifth houses, but this time they obviously received the advice.

After all, Xu Minghua is now Mrs. Huyan’s natal nephew and the immediate boss of the Bao family. Who knows if Mrs. Pan will be offended if she offends her.

These ladies have thought clearly.

It would be fine if the Xu family was a lucky family with no foundation like the Fuchang Hou Rong family. This kind of family has few children to support its wealth.

For an upper-level army such as the Tianwu Army, it is not easy to change the commander of the first army.

but!

Not the Xu family!

Whether it is the hometown of Daizhou or the Sun family, Zhu family, Cao family in Bianjing, the Xie family who are already married, and the Gu family who are about to get married, there are many children who want to join the army.

There are also nobles and nobles out there who want to gain connections.

You can't do it, the Xu family is full of people.

So when they saw Mrs. Sun coming over, all the ladies from the Huyan family and the Bao family stood up one after another, with smiles on their faces.

Naturally, Ms. Sun would not be too harsh on one another or say anything sarcastic. After all, there was no big grudge or hatred. She just looked at each other and smiled at Mrs. Pan before leaving.

After turning around a few tables, Ms. Sun came to the table where her parents-in-law and sisters-in-law were.

My aunt Xu, Zhu Qinghu's mother, was also at the table, asking her natal sister-in-law to take care of her.

The ladies smiled and said a few words, which made the two girls Pingmei and Anmei blush with embarrassment.

After Mrs. Sun checked that Mrs. Xu was okay, Mrs. Sun walked to the next table.

In the courtyard, the most important table is the table where Lady Wu and Lady Bai are.

Now Bai's habit of giving heavy gifts no matter what the banquet is, has opened up a situation among the noble officials and family members of Bianjing. Coupled with Gu Yan's success,

Gu Tingyu and Gu Tingye had a good reputation for being filial, but they were no longer the daughters of merchants who first came to Bianjing.

Also on the table were the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the British father-in-law, Mrs. Zheng (Zheng Jun's wife), and others. They all came from noble and powerful families.

Before, Mrs. Sun was still a marginal figure in such gatherings, but she couldn't resist her husband's promotion, and the people she would marry in the future also looked after her well. At the same time, she had a good son, so she became the imperial wife of the third rank.

Everyone laughed and chatted for a while, then went about their business, eating, sipping tea, listening to music and most importantly gossiping.

The male guests were quite harmonious. A few military attaches wanted to drink with Sheng Hong, but Sheng Hong didn't hold them and drank a few drinks happily.

When Sheng Hong finished drinking and went to change clothes, he saw Gu Yankai cupping his hands towards Xu Minghua and actually leaving early.

‘There must be something urgent,’ Sheng Hong thought.

yard.

The servant from Duke Qi's mansion accompanied Qi Heng here, and they were accompanied by two strong-looking young men in their twenties.

This is Princess Pingning's decision to learn from every experience and arrange for people to protect Qi Heng.

Buwei saw Qingyun, and his heart was full of gratitude and closeness. Rongxian said that it was Qingyun who took action to protect Qi Heng, and Buwei saved him from being hit.

If Qi Heng was frightened or had skin injuries, he, as a servant, would not be able to spare a beating.

Not wanting to be affectionate, he called Brother Qingyun.

Qingyun nodded.

Gu Tingyu was talking to Zheng Xiao about why Bai Gaoguo couldn't defeat Da Zhou, and he was very clear-cut.

Qi Heng saluted and called:

"Uncle Yu, Uncle Ye, Brother Xiao, Brother Zhang, Brother Jing."

Everyone looked at this polite little brother and nodded.

At this time,

Next to Gu Tingyu, his servant Youqing said a few words in his ear:

"Sir, the Marquis has left, saying there is something urgent."

"I know, let's go."

"Yes, sir."

After everyone dispersed and went to their seats to eat, Gu Tingye took Qi Heng and others to continue playing chess and cards.

Xu Zaijing came to Gu Tingyu,

"Brother Yu, what's wrong?" Xu Zaijing asked.

Looking at Xu Zaijing's young but somewhat mature eyes, Gu Tingyu shook his head and said:

"Nothing. Father has something to do and left early."

"Brother Yu, what are your chances for Qiu Wei this year?"

"You are sure to pass the exam. Your ranking depends on the questions at that time."

Gu Tingyu also asked Xu Zaijing some questions to be tested in the county examination.

While the two were talking, Qingcao came over in a panic. Seeing Gu Tingyu beside him, he hesitated to speak.

Xu Zaijing said: "Brother Yu is not an outsider. Qingcao, you have something to say."

Qingcao was about to kneel on the ground suddenly, but Xu Zaijing quickly held him up with quick eyes and hands. He didn't want the people around him to notice.

Qingcao whispered: "Young Master, Sister Qingzhi was stopped by a young master and he touched her."

After saying that, she glanced at Gu Tingyu, who narrowed his eyes and said:

"Is it related to my family?"

Qingcao said:

"Yes, it's Uncle Yang of the Hou Mansion."

"Let's go, I'll go with you."

While talking, Xu Zaijing and Gu Tingyu were led by Qingcao to a side courtyard of the Hou Mansion.

A low and depressed voice came from the house in the side courtyard:

"Kneel down!"

"Snapped!"

clear slap sound

"A little maid dares to blow up at me, little whore!"

Looking at the trays and wine bottles scattered on the ground, Xu Zaijing ordered Qingcao:

"Pack these and go stay in the corridor."

After saying that, he entered the courtyard.

Gu Tingyu, who was behind, told Qingyun and Youqing to keep an eye on the courtyard door and followed them in.

Outside the courtyard house

Gu Tingyang's boy at the door smiled fawningly and was about to say something when he was punched in the stomach by Qingyun and fell to the ground.

In the side courtyard house.

Gu Tingyang looked at the maid he dragged in. She was very pretty for her young age, especially her beautiful eyes.

But this maid didn't scream like her own, which was a little less fun.

"The master of the You family will marry into my Ningyuan Marquis Mansion this year. We have plenty of opportunities to get close, but now we are just getting to know each other."

As he said that, he slapped him again with his backhand.

"I said, kneel down."

Gu Tingyang saw a look of surprise on the maid's face. Before he could figure out what was going on, he felt himself falling backwards.

An arm wrapped around his neck like a python, and then slowly tightened.

He wanted to turn around, but he couldn't move his head at all, and he only felt a sharp pain in his hair.

I wanted to call my boy, but no sound came out.

Slowly, he felt death approaching.

The maid who had just been slapped in front of him without kneeling down knelt down.

He couldn't see clearly or hear what she was saying, but no matter what, she was kneeling down to beg for mercy for him.

He is from Ningyuan Hou Mansion, who dares to kill him?

But the arms under his neck were still tightening,

"Giggle." Gu Tingyang was weakly patting the arm under his neck.

"My lord, my lord, please let go. If our distinguished guest dies, the Hou Mansion will be in big trouble."

Xu Zaijing glanced at Qing Zhi and said nothing.

Gu Tingyu came to the side,

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath and patted Xu Zaijing's shoulder.

"Brother Jing, I'll handle it. There's no need to be sued for life."

After a few breaths, Xu Zaijing said:

"Is he so unruly in your Gu family?"

As he spoke, Xu Zaijing looked at Gu Tingyu.

Gu Tingyu said with a straight face:

"He is also a direct descendant of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion. No one can escape his involvement if anything happens. With his father protecting him, it is naturally the same in the manor, but he will not be so presumptuous in the future."

Xu Zaijing loosened his arms and said:

"I believe in you, Brother Yu."

At this time, Gu Tingyang rolled his eyes, his tongue slightly stuck out, and he began to lose control of his urine and feces. He collapsed on the ground like a dead fish, having already fainted.

"Youqing, come in."

I discussed it with the editor and put it on the shelves on Friday.

After being put on the shelves, there was a wave of updates.

The first update is 10,000, and we will see how many can be written later, and we will definitely send them all out.
