Chapter 6: A Small Banquet in the Red Chamber

Although the situation was bad, Mrs. Xu did not forget to have fun in the midst of suffering, and there was still a smile on her face. "That's all, that's all. Let the girls spend the night first, and go to bed early. When I get up early tomorrow, I can go to the consul to get it." After finishing the sentence, I heard the sound of horseshoes outside.

This is the first day of coming, and it is so late, who will come?Let's go out and see together.Sure enough, I saw four or five carriages coming towards the small red building.The car is a good car, and the horse is also a good horse, which shows that the identity of the people inside is extraordinary.Mrs. Xu stretched her neck and said uncertainly, "Maybe it's Mr. Ma?" She took the two of me out and waited.

After a while, the first carriage stopped in front of the door.When the curtain moved, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi got out of the car and asked, "Are you two Miss Jin and Miss Gu?" We agreed, and the Tsing Yi saluted with a smile, "That's right. You two are so lucky, all the masters are coming to see you today. Hurry up and greet you!" While speaking, the carriages and horses behind also arrived, and several masters came down one by one, and upon closer inspection, they turned out to be the few masters from yesterday .

I stared blankly at them, in a hurry, not knowing how to react.Mrs. Xu shouted anxiously from behind, "Miss, how many masters have you met, why don't you hurry up and say hello?"

I just stepped forward to salute.Mrs. Xu said, and I followed suit: "Ask for the greetings of Master Guo, the greetings of Second Master, and the greetings of Third Master." The man holding the horse's head, "Third Master" is the bearded man with a particularly beautiful beard...

He bowed his head and asked one by one, and finally walked in front of another person.Pearl spoke quickly, and inadvertently grabbed Mrs. Xu's lead, and said, "Ask fourth master how well."

The masters suddenly burst out laughing.Mrs. Xu hurriedly said: "Miss, don't talk nonsense! This is our Mr. Lin." Pearl had no choice but to blushing and whispered to Mrs. Lin and me again: "Greetings to Mr. Lin." After greeting one by one, drum Gathering up the courage to raise my head slightly, I saw "Mr. Lin" looking at me with a smile.His eyes were exactly the same as yesterday.

When he was nervous, he unconsciously lowered his head again.

When the third master saw him, he said, "Miss Jin lowered her head again, but what was she thinking?" The second master laughed and said, "I guess I think of Mr. Wei." Turning around, he said to the person next to him, "Others What? Why not yet?" I immediately blushed like a pearl.Just as he didn't know what to say, there was a sound of a horse on the way, and Mr. Wei came riding on his four hooves on the snow.The second master smiled and said, "This is the real Mr. Wei."

He yelled at Mr. Wei, "Fourth, fourth, the two girls are thinking about you."

I was so ashamed that I lowered my head even more.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly changed the topic, and invited the men into the courtyard.After we were seated, we were supposed to serve tea.There was no hot water in the house.Mrs. Xu got up to burn it.Everyone looked at each other for a while, and the second master bowed to stop him and said, "Don't tell me you have to work hard?" He waved his hand and called the Tsing Yi just now, and ordered, "Go and order someone to make tea."

The man promised to go, Mrs. Xu thought for a while, and said with a smile: "There is no need to work for the second master's people. I just remembered, we didn't prepare tea here." The uncle stayed for a while with a straight face. , said: "Didn't you agree to invite Mr. Lin to drink? How did you come to this ghost place? There is no water, no tea! What are you talking about!"

Without waiting for the masters to reply, Mr. Lin smiled and said, "Master Guo, don't blame them. Originally, everyone said they wanted to go to Liejin Garden. I refused, and I must come to see Miss Jin. Everyone came with me. "The masters all looked at me.

Immediately, my face burned unbelievably again, and I felt uncomfortable all over.I just don't understand why my charm can become so huge all of a sudden.

There should be no shortage of girls in this house, right?

"Both girls were invited from Suzhou. Why did you wrong these two? Quickly count what's missing in the house, and I'll let someone pick it up and bring it here." Mr. Lin ordered Mrs. Xu, his eyes were Still looking at me.Needless to say, the eldest lady was overjoyed when she heard the young master's order, and immediately went out to find someone to explain.This is great, Pearl and I are suddenly more isolated and helpless, left among the gentlemen, even more at a loss.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Master Guo coughed, "Can you two sing?"

Pearl and I haven't spoken yet, and everyone has already burst into laughter.The second master said: "Master Guo asked about operas. This is the first time I have ever encountered a problem." Master Guo said: "Is there a distinction between high and low in listening to operas? Anyone who speaks can listen to me. My dancer A rough man with a big knife, can't he listen?"

"I can listen, I can listen!" Several masters said one after another.

The third master smiled and said, "Then let's sing about Zhang Junrui's Lovesickness, Dreaming of Yingying in the Caoqiao Store."

Several laughed even harder.

One said, "Let's sing "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix."

One said: "Let's sing "Lianxiang Companion"."

Master Guo refused to laugh at all, "I just can't listen to such a tone. What? I knew I wouldn't be here." The third master then stopped laughing and said, "Brother, I was just joking. Why do you take it seriously? As the saying goes, The ruler is long and the inch is short. Ten fingers stick out, but they are not evenly aligned. When riding a horse to fight, the general is naturally invincible. As for the popular drama, singing and dancing, "turning to look at Mr. Lin, " But you still want to stay with us and ask Mr. Lin for more advice." Mr. Lin waved his hand, "It's just a matter of listening and watching."

I thought it was not good to be motionless like a puppet, so I blurted out: "Then sing "Lianxiang Companion"."

After finishing speaking, I remembered the drama inside.

Jianyun said: "We need to be different from ordinary alliances. Ordinary alliances are only for this life, and we want to be in it for the afterlife." Yuhua said: "How about being a compatriot and sister in the next life?" Jianyun said: "Not good, can it be Can we both be women in the next life?" Yuhua said, "How about being sisters in this life and brothers in the next life?" Jian Yun still refused: "You and I will be husband and wife in the next life!"

Then I knew I was very wrong.Just now, it was just a man's joke, but if I really sang it, it's me and Pearl who are embarrassed.Sure enough, Young Master Lin stared at me and said with a smile, "I never thought you two would be so deeply in love. Well, let's sing."

Pearl and I looked at each other again and again, with so many people watching, we couldn't open our mouths.

After being stunned for a while, Master Guo suddenly said, "Can you sing Yiyang Bangzi?"

The masters laughed again.Mr. Guo was annoyed: "I'm a rough person! I can't understand the babbling and emphasizing! You still want to hold down the bull's head and force water to make me suffer such foreign crimes!" The third master laughed and said, "That's what you say. Wrong. Now that you and I have won the world, it's time to be happy. Why did you come here and suffer from foreign crimes instead?"

When the second master heard this, he laughed even harder, "This is not a foreign crime. It was a foreign crime to cut off the bell last time." Mr. Lin also smiled: "I have never heard of this joke. Tell me quickly. Listen." The third master said: "Young master, you don't know yet. A few days ago, His Highness specially rewarded the self-ringing bell that was a tribute from the West and gave it to Lord Guo. Who knows, the self-ringing bell is also a bully. When it was in the hands of Guo Ye, it turned out It stopped ringing. Master Guo took the big knife and unloaded the bell. It was only later that I found out that the bell was very precious. It made him feel bad for several days. Tell me, is it funny?" He said deliberately Do not laugh.

Those present were already laughing together.Master Guo said: "Don't look down on rough people. I didn't cut them all the way from the northeast. How can you enjoy them here?"

The second master said: "You can't say that. Our highness has been strong since he was a child. He won the champion of martial arts at the age of 17. At the age of 20, he rescued the old man from tens of thousands of soldiers. He is brave and mighty. But the words are also good. Poetry and prose are good, and they can play the flute, and they can play the flute, which is even more elegant. Usually in Puli, if the female disciples sing something wrong, they have to be careful to ask for advice. It can be seen that there are still people who are all-round in civil and military affairs."

Master Guo said: "Don't talk about it. How many people in the world can be like His Highness? I have been instigated by you people these days, and I have listened to the drama for several days! It's really uncomfortable. I won't come again. If I can play the long knife and the piccolo well, wouldn’t it be enough for His Royal Highness to have only me, Guo Zhuangtu? What else do you need?” Mr. Lin smiled and said: “Nowadays, if you look like a prince, there is one by your side. But you forgot. All eyes were on the silent Young Master Wei, and they all agreed to praise Young Master Wei.

After a while, someone at the side quietly signaled that tea was coming.Mrs. Xu motioned Pearl and me to come forward and serve tea.Several masters picked it up one by one, and each drank.Master Guo is a rough man, holding a small white porcelain teacup, he is awkward and ridiculous.When it was time to drink it, there was a gurgling sound, just like Zhu Bajie was eating ginseng fruit, pouring all of it down his throat.I didn't taste the slightest tea flavor, and the tea cup had already bottomed out.
