The two chatted a few words before General Guo and his son came.
Bai Shan glanced at Man Bao, and the two turned around and stood up, looking at the door with smiles.
General Guo brought Guo Zhao in with the same smile, and when he came in, he clasped his fists and said hello to everyone. After seeing each one, he came to Zhou Man first, and he said with a smile on his face: "This is the Zhou imperial doctor, I have admired him for a long time. , we have heard the name of Zhou Taiyi's miraculous doctor in the Western Regions."
Man Bao immediately said that this was an exaggeration and should not be praised by General Guo. After speaking, he praised Guo Zhao behind him, "General Guo is well-deserved of his reputation. It really is a tiger father without dogs."
Guo Zhao: ... I always feel that my seniority is inexplicably inferior.
Not only Guo Zhao, but General Guo also felt this way, and he always felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at his colleagues who were younger than his son, so he smiled and skipped the matter, and then turned to greet Mr. Zhuang.
General Guo was the last to see General Meng, but unlike Zhou Man and the others, he seemed much closer to General Meng, and even reached out and patted him on the shoulder vigorously to show his appreciation.
Man Bao's eyes could not help but fall on his abdomen, showing sympathy.
Little General Meng responded to the praise without changing his face, and when he looked up to meet their gazes, his stomach, which had only felt a slight pain, suddenly felt very painful.
General Guo laughed and sat back on his seat, then looked at the young men brought by Zhou Man, and asked, "I haven't been back to Beijing for many years, and I don't even recognize my nephew from the Liu family, who is it? "
Liu Huan had no choice but to stand up and salute: "General Guo, I'm right here."
"What's your name, General Guo? You should call me Uncle." General Guo laughed and patted the couch beside him, and said with a smile, "Come on, our nephew and uncle have not seen each other for many years. I never expected to be in a place like the Western Regions." See you, hurry up and come to uncle, our uncle and nephew will talk affectionately."
Man Bao's eyes widened, and Liu Huan also looked like he had been struck by lightning. How do we answer this
In the silence, Mr. Zhuang gave the children a sneaky look to bring them back to their senses, then he raised his head and said to General Guo with a smile, "I made General Guo laugh, this child is young and innocent, and he is a little excited and disrespectful when he meets the General for the first time. How dare I let him sit beside the general when he is like this? Liu Huan, don't you hurry up and accuse the general?"
Liu Huan came back to his senses, and immediately bent down to confess his crime.
General Guo then looked at Mr. Zhuang, and said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Zhuang, a grandson who can still manage his plan while walking in Honglu Temple?"
Hubu Shangshu also has the reputation of "Jianxiang", which is really a good name, but for some reason, there is a taste of irony when it comes out of General Guo's mouth.
Mr. Zhuang's complexion remained unchanged, and he explained with a smile: "Thanks to Liu Shangshu for not giving up, I will be Liu Huan's husband for a few days. I will take him out this time, and I just want to take him out to gain insights."
Teacher and father, Mr. Zhuang has this status, he can really be Liu Huan's master, even in the eyes of the world who don't know the depth of their relationship, he is more legitimate than his cousin General Guo.
General Guo really smiled, and stopped worrying about this point, Guo Zhao also made a timely relief, "Father, it's time for the banquet."
General Guo smiled and asked the steward to serve food and wine, and of course, beauties too!
Rows of beautiful maids came in one after another carrying wine and dishes, with graceful postures, and every move was as beautiful as a dance, Man Bao and the others stared dumbfounded again.
Man Bao, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, who thought they had seen enough in the palace, once again felt that they were country bumpkins, and their knowledge was far from enough.
Even Yin Huan and Liu Huan were watching.
On the other hand, Zhou Liru looked up at them and then stared at their clothes, thinking that their clothes were so beautiful.
She felt that she had little experience, so this kind of thing should be normal. Maybe big families like to serve wine and food like this
Man Bao also recovered from their graceful movements and stared at the wine poured into her glass. The wine was clear and smelled very fragrant, but no matter how fragrant it was, it could not conceal the fact that it was baijiu.
Moreover, it should be made by Zhongyuan, and it smells a little familiar, so judging from her experience, it must be very bitter, and she doesn't want to drink it.
Bai Shan also doesn't like drinking, he always feels that people who drink have a bad smell, so he didn't move, and planned to drink it when he needed to toast and drink.
Looking at the food and wine on the table, the friends couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, they had a good meal this afternoon, and it lasted long enough. They are not hungry at the moment, otherwise they would eat this idea when they come to the banquet hungry That's too bad.
But the other guests didn't think so. After taking a sip of wine, someone praised: "This is a bar in Yicheng? Good wine."
General Guo smiled complacently and said: "Yes, it is the wine from Yicheng. This is the general's collection. If there is no distinguished guest coming today, I would not be willing to take it out. Come, Mr. Zhou, cousin, let me offer you a toast , it is fate to meet thousands of miles away, we all have fate."
Man Bao and Liu Huan raised their glasses and didn't even dare to say that they didn't dare. Seeing that he drank the wine with his head up, they could only drink up the wine in the glass.
Then they had to turn around and offer a glass of wine to General Guo.
Well, two cups are enough.
Nie Canjun, who was sitting behind them, drank with great relish, and couldn't help but exchanged with Wei Xingren, "This is the best Yicheng wine, and it's rare even in the capital. I didn't expect Gaochang to be so far away. drank."
Wei Xingren saw that the general beside him seemed unhappy, so he reminded Nie Canjun in a low voice, "Nie Canjun, now he is not called Gaochang, but Xizhou."
Nie Canjun also caught a glimpse of the cold face of the person next to him, sneered in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Yes, it is Xizhou."
Mr. Zhuang, who was sitting in front of them, was moved in his heart, and looked down at the wine in his glass.
"It's boring to eat wine, let them come up and dance."
As soon as Man Bao and the others looked up, they saw another group of beautiful little girls coming in from the outside, and then the music sounded, and they danced to the music. Eyes, there is no way, who makes him the most handsome
Bai Erlang and Liu Huan also got a lot of winks, even Man Bao got two, but Yin or didn't get any.
After counting carefully, Man Bao felt very strange, "Why is no one seducing Yin He?"
Bai Shan: ...
Yin or on the side: ...
Bai Shan turned his head to look at Yin He, and finally burst out laughing, "Probably because he is whiter than them?"
Everyone stared at him.
Yin or glanced at them, but ignored them.
General Guo has been in touch with several people. After drinking a pot of wine, he turned his head and saw them whispering, and looked at the dancers in the lobby from time to time. He was even happier, "Why, my nephews like it? Simple, come on. people-"
