Chapter 96 Family Banquet Hearts
"Wei Shao, it's great to be the son-in-law of your Wei family. Not only do you have a beautiful lady, but you also have Mount Tai to rely on!"
"It's a pity that all the women in your family are married now, so we have no chance!"
"When will you introduce some of your brothers-in-law to teach us how to choose a mate? Hahaha!"
Wei Jin's youngest son, Wei Shao, who was studying at Taixue, returned to the neighborhood where he was sitting with a heavy heart.
Recalling the situation in Taixue just now, his face became ugly for a while.
It is said that Wei Shao's family has a good academic background and is well-educated. The family is powerful. Several brothers, brothers-in-law, and even clan brothers are all well-connected and well-connected. It is obvious that he has a bright future. In the past, he was also in Taixue.
Quite well-connected.
But in recent days, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.
"Master, you don't have to be as knowledgeable as them!" Wei Hui, the scholar who went to study with Wei Shao, looked at his master's face and comforted him, "Those people just now, especially Liu Yong and Gao Jin, are the most
I am friendly with Xin Li and Dai Kan. Those two people were beaten by my uncle before, but later it was proved that they were framed. Their reputations were ruined. They hate my uncle so much. What kind words can they say about their friends?"
"Even so, there may be no reason for the groundless rumors. My brother-in-law's reputation in the past has suddenly changed so much. I don't believe it if he could be as popular as he is today without anyone's help. Besides,
My sister also told me that my father was a little partial and added two new guests to the Dingxianghou Mansion." Wei Shao shook his head, feeling more and more depressed. He had no expectations for the family banquet in the evening.
.
This is also normal. Anyone who is ridiculed by his classmates for their relatives' bad points in school and doesn't know how to refute will inevitably feel very upset.
Such emotions, when he arrived at home, he did not fully recover, and it seemed out of place with the slightly lively atmosphere in the main hall——
"Xiu Xian, I have read your previous article. It is very enlightening."
As soon as Wei Shao walked in, he heard his eldest brother Wei Fangzheng praising his brother-in-law Wang Xiuxian. The former also held an article in his hand. The ink on it was clear and it could be seen that it had just been written.
Turning his head again, he saw the desk and pen, ink, paper and inkstone not far away, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Brother-in-law Xiu Xian is the closest to my family. They both come from the same scholarly family. They are both good at learning, not knives.
sword."
The little book boy behind him reminded: "Sir, when the master and the Marquis arrive, you must not say such things!" After saying this, he raised his sleeves and wiped his forehead.
Wei Shao nodded.
"What's wrong?" Wang Xiuxian looked over, "What's on my mind, brother? I see you look unhappy."
Wei Shao sighed and simply said: "They are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning."
At this time, someone came outside to announce that the Lord was coming.
Seeing Wei Jin walking in, Wei Fang, Wei Xing, Wang Xiuxian and Wei Shao all stood up and saluted.
"Tian Wen is here, just in time. It's almost time to call the female family members. There is no distinction between the front and back halls, so they all eat here." Wei Jin ordered with a smile, and then said to Wei Shao, "
It just so happens that your brother and brother-in-law are here today, so they can test your academic performance."
"Not everyone can test me." Wei Shao muttered.
"What did you say?" Wei Jin asked.
Wei Shao immediately lowered his head, indicating that he didn't say anything.
Wei Jin didn't pursue it. He was in a good mood at the moment. He was chatting and laughing with Li Huai and asked his son, son-in-law and nephew to sit on both sides.
Outside, with the sound of warblers and swallows, Wei Lian, Wei Ruxi, Wei Xiang'er, and several female relatives from the clan came over, and they all came to see the ceremony.
Then, Wei Jin's wife was invited over, and after another round of conversation, many low tables were brought up.
Li Huai looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there are so many rules in this rich family, and there are so many steps to have a dinner together.
While he was muttering, the servants brought the exquisite delicacies, Wei Jin gave another speech, and then the couple sat down at the table. Of course, there were also singles like Wei Shao, who knelt down behind a low table and
Followed by his little book boy.
Then came the various conversations among the female relatives——
"Sister, we had made an appointment before to enjoy the flowers together. However, my husband had just been transferred back and was re-employed in the government office. The family was not well settled. I couldn't get away, so I broke my promise."
"It's nothing. My Qi Lang often comes to the palace recently to discuss military and state affairs with the general. Your husband has been transferred here. Which yamen he is at now? I'll ask Qi Lang to say a few words. This will save you all the trouble."
"Thank you very much, sister. It's just that my husband relies on his own ability. He even wrote an article recently..."
…
Li Huai just listened to a few words and realized something was wrong.
I originally wrote this book about male videos, right? That’s right? It must be, right? Why, when I think about it now, does it feel a little wrong?
He was doubtful in his heart, but then he thought about it. The things he had been in contact with recently were all matters related to the vassal town. There was about to be a rebellion. No matter how he thought about it, it was all the tactics of the war for hegemony! Moreover, as a nobleman, his family also had
There is a vassal town waiting to be inherited, a proper tycoon, and at the end of the day, a feudal official. This pattern is definitely no problem, and it is only temporary for now!
"After all, the female channel I wrote was not this way at all!"
Looking at my father-in-law, he still looked as usual, chatting and laughing, and couldn't help but nod. It seemed that the current situation was reserved for bureaucratic family banquets, and he was a bit strange.
With this thought, he felt relieved again. He turned around and saw Wang Xiuxian not far away, looking embarrassed and whispering to his wife.
Man, it’s so difficult!
He was still thinking when suddenly Wei Xiang'er raised her voice: "Why did I act so foolishly?" Her eyes shifted from Wang Xiuxian and swept over Deng En and Wei Ruxi, "You are now, after all,
I also rely on myself. I don’t think that some people, in addition to the grace of their ancestors, can only rely on the help of their in-laws. As a result, they have also gained a lot of momentum and fame, making some people get carried away. I watched it with my eyes, but of course I felt unhappy.
Comfortable!" After saying this, he glared at Wei Ruxi.
Wang Xiuxian said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense!"
Li Huai couldn't help but shake his head, feeling dissatisfied. This was a slap in the face, so he just wanted to express it, because his father-in-law had already taken action.
"Presumptuous!" Wei Jin put down the wine glass, "Today is a time of joy, but you are talking nonsense here, saying things you heard from outside and taking them as true. You are really ignorant! Xiu Xian, my daughter,
If you don’t make progress, I’ll cause you trouble!”
"Taishan's words are serious!" Wang Xiuxian stood up quickly, sweating on his forehead, "Xiang'er was also confused for a while. I will talk to her when I get back!" Then he lowered his head and winked at his wife.
Wei Xiang'er just snorted coldly, and then said: "That's right!" She looked at Li Huai, "Master Hou, if you are really capable, why not write an article today? My husband just wrote an article..."
Li Huai chuckled, looked at Wei Ruxi who was full of anger, and then said lightly to Wei Xiang'er: "If you ask me to write, I will write it for you? Where do I get all the time? You think too highly of yourself.
!My manuscripts have been praised by officials, praised by great scholars, and even Mount Tai can’t put them down. Who do you think you are? Dare to call me out? Could it be that you have forgotten my past reputation?”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Wei Fang, Wei Xing and Wei Shao all changed, Wang Xiuxian's face became gloomy, and Wei Shao stood up with excitement.
Wow!
Wei Jin threw his hands to the ground!
Chapter completed!
