Guo Shao had never seen Li Yu before, and was surprised to see a man in the hall of Chen's mansion. He had a special look in his eyes, was handsome, very young, and had a sparse beard.
You are the world-famous General Guo. The man stood tall and bowed, his posture was very elegant and proper, and it was obvious at first glance that he was not an ordinary person.
Guo Shao clasped his fists in return and said in confusion: It is me.
Aunt Sun on the side hurriedly said: I didn't have time to introduce him, this is the sixth son of the Southern Tang Kingdom, my wife's cousin's husband, General Guo has never seen him in the court
The man said: My name is Li Yu.
Guo Shao suddenly realized what was going on. He looked embarrassed and said hurriedly: I have heard of your name for a long time.
No, no, General Guo's achievements in both civil and military affairs are well known to me. I am fortunate to meet him today. It is a great honor for me. Li Yu spoke eloquently and smoothly.
Guo Shao glanced at Aunt Sun and asked: "Mrs. Chen said there is a new dance.
Aunt Sun smiled but said nothing. Li Yu hurriedly said: Please sit down. My wife has choreographed a new dance to liven up the atmosphere.
Guo Shao suddenly realized and couldn't help but look at Li Yu. If he guessed correctly, then Guo Shao guessed everything. He sighed slightly in his heart and said casually: I have heard that your wife Zhou Ehuang is the most talented in the world. Today I can watch her dance. I am flattered.
Li Yu had a calm expression, showing no humiliation. Guo Shao was also helpless, as he really didn't force him to do so.
At this time, a group of women in white came in one after another, carrying food boxes and filling the table with dishes and wine. Li Yu clapped his hands twice, and immediately saw several musicians in plain clothes and buns coming up, holding string and bamboo instruments and kneeling by the wall. A carpet was also laid on the hall.
Everything seemed to be ready, but Zhou Xian still didn't come in.
Guo Shao was on pins and needles. He had never coveted Zhou Xianzhi's beauty before, but he still felt a little guilty in front of Li Yu. His strength was not false, but he was a legitimate title. Guo Shao was not completely without a sense of right and wrong. He knew what was right and what was wrong; it was just that sometimes he did something he did knowingly.
But Guo Shao was still able to sit still. It seemed that he had become more courageous over the years. He could be calm in front of other people's husbands. He was indeed quite nervous.
I am just a warrior, and I don't really understand the elegance of singing and dancing. Guo Shao said this casually to hide his inner emotions.
At this time, a woman in white was pouring wine. Jingniang knelt down and took Guo Shao's wine cup without any hesitation, sniffed it carefully, and took a sip and put it in her mouth. Li Yu watched and smiled at Guo Shao: I admire you. General Guo is surrounded by talented people.
Excuse me, Guo Shao said with a smile.
The two of them talked back and forth, seemingly with endless things to say. But none of them were useful. What Guo Shao said had nothing to do with what he was thinking; I guess Li Yu was about the same. Thinking of the time with Zuo You, Li Chuyun and his sworn brothers, and comparing it to this hypocritical social interaction, the difference was really huge.
I offer a toast to General Guo, Li Yu said. The two chatted and drank together, just like good friends.
After a long while, Li Yu uttered an "ah", put down the wine cup, and clapped his hands vigorously several times.
Guo Shao cautiously reminded: "I am a man you have never met. If your wife feels it is inappropriate, forget it. Ask the dancer from Mrs. Chen's house to play and sing a few songs to liven up the atmosphere. Anyway, I can't understand or see it, just for fun."
General Guo, please wait a moment. I will be back soon. Li Yu clasped his fists and said.
Guo Shao took the opportunity to ask Aunt Sun next to him: Where is Madam Chen? Aunt Sun said: Madam is not convenient to come out to meet, she said she didn't know what to say. Since the Sixth Young Master wanted to make friends, General Guo should give Madam a face and drink a few glasses of wine with him to deal with it.
Guo Shao pondered for a moment, and felt that it would not be a good idea to just leave like that, so he had to bite the bullet and continue sitting there.
Not long after, Li Yu came out again, bowing and saying as he walked: I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, General Guo.
No, no. Guo Shao pointed to the seat opposite and said, "Sixth Master, please take a seat. Let's have our wine."
At this moment, Guo Shao turned his head and saw a graceful figure appear at the door. He was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened. He was indeed not pretending, and it was not the first time he had seen Zhou Ehuang, but seeing her dressed in a dancing costume again, he could not help but feel amazed.
The transparent shawl and belt are very elegant, but they don't cover the tight clothes inside. The high chest is more prominent because of the soft and slender waist. The waist is like a willow, and it twists gracefully with the steps of walking. The amplitude is small but the style is very strong. The hips and thighs are even more attractive, especially the outline of the legs, which are slender and tight, with just the right fat and thin, like beautiful lines carefully carved. It is a beautiful figure that you can never get enough of even if you look at it ten thousand times.
She is as pure, white and elegant as Chang'e, but she has a sexy and elegant temperament and charming style that makes people's blood boil. She is not like a creature on earth. It makes people admire her but can't help the temptation.
Guo Shao was stunned for a long while, and suddenly noticed Li Yu's gaze. He quickly collected his thoughts, turned around and said: "Your Madam is indeed an elegant person. I'm sorry for being rude."
Li Yu couldn't hide the pain in his eyes, as if he had been stabbed. But he still pretended to be calm and composed. Guo Shao also felt that he had gone too far, and said apologetically: I am really ashamed to see this.
It’s okay, it’s okay, Li Yu said seriously, my husband and I admire General Guo’s reputation with all our hearts, and we are honored to make friends with him today, and we are very happy.
Zhou Xian stepped forward gracefully, bowed deeply, her cheeks slightly red, and said quietly: I am here to meet General Guo.
Madam, you are so polite. Guo Shao hurriedly made a gesture to support her. For a moment, he felt very sympathetic and respectful towards her. He couldn't help but say that Madam was like a plum blossom.
Zhou Xian looked down and asked softly: Why is the plum blossom compared to
Guo Shaodao: Blooming in the bitter cold and snow, but standing proudly and strong
Zhou Xian said: This is the first time I met General Guo, and you don’t know me well. You are too kind to me. I feel unworthy of your praise. But I would like to thank General Guo for his kind words. I am sorry to show my humility.
Guo Shao clasped his fists and said: How dare I watch Madam's dance with a clear mind
Zhou Xian took a small step back, and suddenly the sound of stringed instruments and orchestras slowly rang out. Guo Shao hurriedly picked up the wine and said to Li Yu: Please.
In an instant, Zhou Xian danced to the melody of the piano. Her snow-white feet were extremely nimble and her body was as light as a fairy. Guo Shao glanced at the beams to confirm that there were no thin ropes supporting her, but she really felt that she was so light that she could fly. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was all an illusion caused by the dance steps and movements. In fact, she was using force under her feet every moment.
Unexpectedly, Li Yu frowned and said: What happened today? The dancing was messy and the performance was far from good.
Guo Shao was stunned: I didn’t realize that, but I thought the madam’s skills were very superb.
