Chapter one hundred and seventy-eight

Xu Huan quickly returned to the upper room. While he was wandering around, there was a fifty-year-old scholar in a long gown. When Xu Huan came in, he smiled and held his hands in greeting.

Seeing Xu Huan come in, Guo Sheng stood up. Hu Panshi hurriedly moved Guo Sheng to the top of the main table, but Guo Sheng gave way to Xu Huan first.

Xu Huan sat down at the second seat, Guo Sheng took the main seat, and Hu Panshi accompanied Guo Sheng on the right. Next to him was Mr. Kong, who was in his fifties. Half of the first dozen or so people who came in were seated.

On the main table, half were divided on the other four Eight Immortals tables, and sat together with the second group of people who came in.

Dong Laosan picked up the big pot and asked Xu Huan first, "Does Mr. Xu drink hot wine, or just drink it cold?"

"Heat a pot and add some shredded ginger and rock sugar." Guo Sheng answered for Xu Huan.

Dong Laosan immediately picked up another smaller silver pot, holding the pot in one hand. He first poured the wine for Guo Sheng, and then poured the hot ginger shredded rock sugar rice wine in the small pot for Xu Huan.

After a round of wine was poured, Guo Sheng stood up, and Hu Panshi immediately shouted: "Stop talking! Listen to my brother's lecture!"

Xu Huan just stood up with the wine glass in hand. When he heard the words "Listen to my brother's instructions," Le's hand shook and the wine spilled into his hand.

"Panshi's brother is my brother. Do it!" Guo Sheng's instructions were concise and clear.

"It's done!" Hu Panshi roared again, and everyone in the house and courtyard said in unison: "It's done!"

Xu Huan's ears were buzzing for a while.

"Brother, let me toast you." Hu Panshi filled the glass with wine and raised it in front of Guo Sheng. Guo Sheng raised his glass, touched it with Hu Panshi, and drank it all in one gulp.

Hu Panshi grinned and immediately poured a glass of wine in front of Xu Huan, "Mr. Xu, I respect you, you are not simple."

"Brother Panshi, thank you very much." Xu Huan quickly raised his cup.

After Hu Panshi's round of toasts, the atmosphere quickly rose. Starting from Yu Datou, they came over one by one to toast Guo Sheng, and then to Xu Huan. How could Xu Huan have that amount? If he drank Hu Panshi's cup, he would avoid fighting with high cards.

Damn, he wanted to see the fun and open his eyes, but he didn't want to have him fall under the table and get drunk as soon as the banquet started.

The wine was half drunk, and the house and courtyard were bustling with activity.

Yu Datou stood between the two tables, spitting and quarreling with Dong Lao San, "...Lao San, let me tell you, do you drink this wine? If you don't accept it, let's take a walk in the yard a few times!"

"How many glasses of wine have you had, and you're starting to get angry? If you can, go and see the boss." Dong Laosan wouldn't let him go at all.

"I'm not drunk, why am I looking for the boss? I can't beat him, let's go for a walk." Yu Datou is really not drunk.

"I'm not drunk, so I won't go with you. Don't go back and forth. The boss often says, our boss's boss is a scholar, and he pays attention to both civil and military skills. Can you recite that article?" Dong Laosan is very good at it.

Change the topic.

Yu Datou immediately looked around and talked about it, "Drinking and drinking... I tell you, Lao San, I think it's better to study and not study. Just like us, we have the most enjoyable life, so what about being an official?"

Comparing one or two products with us? There is no way to compare!"

Yu Datou said as he walked between Hu Panshi and Guo Sheng, "Boss, don't you think so? I'm a shitty official, kowtowing when I see people. How good we are, even when we meet the emperor, we don't have to kowtow.

Just like that, we are 10,000 times better than that first-grade official! Right, boss?"

Xu Huan was surprised to hear that he didn't need to kowtow when he saw the emperor?

Guo Sheng's eyes widened and he slapped Yu Datou on the shoulder, "You don't need to kowtow when you see the emperor? Where are you talking?"

Mr. Kong, who was sitting under Hu Panshi, turned his head left and right with a smile on his face, "I'm anxious inside and I'm anxious inside." He was about to stand up and run away, but was grabbed by the half-drunk Yu Datou.

"This is what sir said! Serious words! Sir, tell us the boss of our boss, what are you talking about? What are the gifts? We don't need to kowtow when we meet the emperor. Did I tell you, sir? I

I just love hearing this!”

"This is what Mr. Kong said." Hu Panshi looked at the panic on Mr. Kong's face and became suspicious. He grabbed him in front of Guo Sheng and laughed: "Brother, didn't you tell me to study?

It's best for everyone to read some books. I don't dare to judge Mr. Kong. This Mr. Kong was invited at the beginning of last year. He is very knowledgeable. Everyone likes him very much. How can you say that?

Wait? Mr. Kong, please talk to my brother."

"Just kidding." Mr. Kong was being grabbed by Hu Panshi, and his sleeve was pulled by Yu Datou. He couldn't take it off, so he had to smile and deal with Guo Sheng.

"I haven't introduced it to Mr. Kong yet, have I? My brother was born as a scholar. Later, he didn't want to take the exam. If my brother had been willing to take the exam, he would have been the number one scholar a long time ago." Hu Panshi curled the corner of his mouth downwards, as proud as the number one scholar.

The hat was now on his head.

Xu Huan took a sip of wine and took a sip.

Guo Sheng glanced sideways at Hu Panshi, and Mr. Phong Kong cupped his hand, "I'm not very talented, but my brother Xu, who came from a juren background and worked as a clerk, is not very talented in terms of knowledge, but Brother Xu can compete with Mr.

Talk about one or two."

Mr. Kong's face turned even paler and he couldn't even laugh. "Um, this is not a good time... I'm in a hurry..."

Next to him, Dong Laosan had already noticed that something was wrong. He took a step forward and pressed Mr. Kong on his shoulder. He crossed Mr. Kong's shoulder and smiled with Guo Sheng: "I remember clearly what you said, saying that you are not polite to common people, sir."

These are the words of a saint.

This means: What is polite or disrespectful has nothing to do with us common people. It is all the business of officials. Common people like us will not pay attention to the emperor when we see him, let alone kneel or kowtow.

.

Is that what sir said? Everyone really likes to hear this sentence, and the boss also likes to hear it, right boss?"

Mr. Kong's face suddenly turned pale and his eyes evaded, "It's just a joke, just a joke, just a joke..."

Xu Huan stared at Mr. Kong, pointed at him, but could not speak.

Guo Sheng immediately became sullen, pointed his finger at Mr. Kong, but stared at Hu Panshi and asked, "Did he really say that? You really like to hear it?"

Hu Panshi immediately shrank down a little, "That's what I said. I don't like it, but I just think it's pretty good..."

"Looking at you like this, it doesn't seem like you really don't know what it means to be polite to common people. You... are just misleading people's children. You are going to waste people's lives! Boss Hu, don't you give me enough?" Xu Huanneng

I said something and was very angry.

"We can't give you enough money. In the month since you came to us, your husband has gained three pounds!" Yu Datou immediately answered.
