Rise From the Humble

This time, Zhu Pingan asked the greasy fat man to change to a restaurant, Zhuangyuanlou, and order a replica of the Deer Ming Banquet.

There was nothing Zhu Pingan could do about the standard deer-crowing banquet. It wasn't that he couldn't bear the money, but that he couldn't buy it even if he had money. Last time, when Zhu Ping'an won the election, he had a deer-crowing banquet, which included fifty-eight hot and cold dishes, desserts, soups, and many of the dishes could not be made on the spot and needed to be prepared several days in advance, which was even the most time-consuming. That dish called "Honey Pickled Chicken" took as long as a hundred days. Therefore, Zhu Ping'an could only treat the greasy fat man to a replica of the deer's roaring banquet.

It is a replica of the Deer Ming Banquet, with as many as eighteen dishes, including venison, carp, turtle and other dishes that symbolize high school.

The greasy fat man was like a glutton at first, and he ate heartily. But after the tea time, the fat man suddenly felt lost, as if something sad in his heart had been triggered, he put down his chopsticks and sighed.

"Brother Hu, but the food and wine are not to your taste?" Zhu Ping'an asked with concern when he saw the greasy fat man's sudden loss.

"No, no, it's just a matter of emotion."

The greasy fat man sighed, thinking of the sad things, and then looking at the dazzling array of food on the table, he suddenly felt that it didn't taste good.

"I wonder if I can be of any use to you. As long as Brother Hu opens his mouth, I will definitely not refuse."

Zhu Pingan asked.

"Alas, this is my personal battle, no one else can do it." The greasy fat man sighed.

"Oh?" Zhu Pingan looked at the greasy fat man.

"Alas, I have been in school for decades and have taken several provincial examinations, but I have never been able to taste the Deer Ming Banquet. When I taste this banquet today, I can't help but be filled with emotion."

When the greasy fat man said this, he couldn't help but become emotional. He raised his head at a forty-five degree angle and the corners of his eyes were slightly moist.

Zhu Ping'an looked at the emotional fat man and couldn't help but sympathize. According to historical records, you will have to take the provincial examination several times, but the result will not change. Sun Shan will still be in front and you will be behind. If history does not change, you will remain a scholar in this life and will have no chance of having an authentic deer-crowing banquet.

"The Deer Ming Banquet is nothing. My young master has even eaten the Qionglin Banquet." Liu Dadao couldn't help but say with pride after hearing the greasy fat man's words.

The Luming Banquet is a celebration banquet for new candidates, while the Qionglin Banquet is more upscale and is a celebration banquet for new scholars.

Liu Dadao has followed Zhu Pingan for so long and has gained a lot of experience. He still knows these two kinds of banquets.

"Huh? Your young master has even eaten the Qionglin Banquet? You are so young." After hearing Liu Dadao's words, the greasy fat man couldn't help being shocked and his face changed drastically. However, after a few seconds, the greasy fat man smiled again and tapped the table with his chopsticks. After eating the food, he twitched his lips and said to Liu Dadao, "Yes, yes, a family like yours has eaten many such Luming Banquets and Qionglin Banquets."

The greasy fat man thought that the Qionglin Banquet that Liu Dadao was talking about was the Qionglin Banquet that was modeled after the standard Qionglin Banquet in a restaurant, just like today's Deer Ming Banquet, so he calmed down from his surprise.

For a family like yours, let alone the Qionglin Banquet, even if you eat the Qionglin Banquet every time, you won’t be surprised if you are a fat person.

At the beginning, Fatty Fatty thought Liu Dadao was talking about the authentic Qionglin Banquet, so Fatty Fatty was shocked at first. What did you say? ! Has your young master ever had the Qionglin Banquet? ! Your young master is so young and doesn't even have a weak title, so he not only won the imperial examination, but also won the Jinshi? !

How is it possible? It has been a hundred years since the Ming Dynasty was founded. Those who have won the imperial examination before they are young are all quite young. Those who can be admitted into the imperial examination before they are young are even rarer and can be counted on one finger. Oh, by the way, last year when Enke was in charge, it was only in the hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty that there was such a champion who won the first prize in less than a year. What was that called? Zhu Anlai

There's no way your young master could be him, right? !

hehe! How can it be! There is no such coincidence in the world. If it is such a coincidence, I will really turn back and act like a watchdog.

Alas, speaking of the top scholar, I actually took the exam together with him. It was the provincial exam the year before last. I also participated in it at that time. But unfortunately, he became famous in one battle and became a blockbuster. He became the youngest in Nanzhili. Juren enjoyed the authentic deer-crowing banquet, but he himself, who had lost his reputation, stayed in the inn, eating leftovers and listening to others in the inn praising the young man.

"I swear that I will have an authentic deer-crowing feast!" The greasy fat man swore fiercely, and then turned his grief into strength, and made a healthy meal of the food on the table.

"I believe Brother Hu." Zhu Pingan nodded and encouraged.

"I believe in your vision." The greasy fat man stretched out his hand and tore off a bad leg, feeling like he was praising Zhu Pingan.

"You said you were fat and you were out of breath." Liu Dadao couldn't help but twitch his lips after hearing the greasy fat man's words.

"Why, believe it or not, in the next provincial examination, I will be one of the candidates to show you." The greasy fat man stuffed the leg into his mouth and said to Liu Dadao, setting a flag for himself.

"I don't believe it." Liu Dadao was very embarrassed.

"You! Humph! Just remember what I said today. Next time I will win a prize and show it to you. At that time, I tasted the authentic Deer Ming Feast. I will tell you the taste of the Deer Ming Feast dishes in detail. .”

The greasy fat man raised the flag high and waved it twice vigorously.

Zhu Ping'an saw the greasy fat man raise the flag twice in a row, and couldn't help but want to cover his eyes, unable to bear to look directly.

Generally speaking, people who raise the flag will often be slapped in the face. As for the fate of the greasy fat man, Zhu Ping'an already knew it, so he couldn't bear to watch it.

"Ha!" Liu Dadao roared.

"What, you don't believe it?!" The greasy fat man glared at Liu Dadao and said firmly, "I didn't tell you! In the last provincial examination, I was voted first in the first examination!"

"You, the first place in the first test?!" Liu Dadao was surprised and looked at the greasy fat man, full of suspicion.

Zhu Pingan was not surprised or suspicious at all. Because this is true, this experience has also been recorded in history.

"No joke, first place in the first test, guaranteed!" The greasy fat man raised his head, his eyes slightly nostalgic.

"What's the result?" Liu Dadao looked at the greasy fat man again.

"Ahem, my pearl was flawless and dazzling, but the brilliance was too bright and blinded the eyes of those who admired the pearl."

The greasy fat man coughed.

"What do you mean? Can you speak human language?!" Liu Dadao couldn't understand the greasy fat man's words and glared.

"Ahem, the examiner is blind, illiterate, and unable to appreciate my beautiful article. I failed the exam and my reputation has been ruined." The greasy fat man coughed awkwardly and said with a slight blush.

"You've all failed the exam, so what can you say?" Liu Dadao understood and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

The greasy fat man's face turned red.
