I’m The King Chapter 45: :Birthday
The two He Lanxiong sisters disappeared into the wind and snow, but they left Gao Yuan with a message that worried him. It's probably true, it seems that I have to have a good talk with Uncle Lu. So what if we just talk? With the three melons and two dates in Fufeng County, how can they stop the Donghu people's cavalry, even if these Donghu people are now It's gone, but it's not something the hundreds of soldiers in Fufeng County can hold back. It's okay to say that the hundreds of soldiers are getting better, but when he thinks of what they were like before, Gao Yuan doesn't hold back to the other two teams. I am a little more confident. Although my uncle has already paid Zheng Xiaoyang's team after my persuasion, Zheng Xiaoyang is not himself.
I have to hurry up and tell Uncle Lu that it would be best to send another army from the county. It seems that I have to go back today.
While eating lunch, Gao Yuan was still thinking about this matter. He was a little worried.
After dinner, Gao Yuan was about to go back, but someone from the city came first. Big birthday, I have specially sent my housekeeper to send invitations, I really have face.
After accepting the wedding post, I promised myself that I would definitely pick it up, and I just happened to be looking for my uncle. On this occasion, my uncle must definitely go. This matter is not just the matter of the county lieutenant, the county magistrate is the first to bear the brunt , when the time comes, we will discuss this matter with them.
After Butler Wu left, Gao Yuan was not in a hurry to leave. The wedding banquet was at night, and he didn't sleep well last night. This time is just a good time to catch up on sleep.
Gao Yuan is not in a hurry, but Sun Xiao is in a hurry.
"Bingcao, why are you still asleep?" Sun Xiao couldn't help asking anxiously when he entered the door and saw Gao Yuan lying on the bed with his eyes glazed over.
"Sun Xiao, what's the matter?" Gao Yuan squinted his eyes and asked, after he hadn't slept all night.
"Bingcao, County Magistrate Wu specially sent his butler to send you posts, you really have face."
"Yeah, Sun Xiao, I have something to say!"
"Bingcao, County Magistrate Wu's 50th birthday, you have to go to a wedding banquet?"
"Yes, Sun Xiao, do you want to go too?"
"No, no, no!" Sun Xiao waved his hands again and again, "I'm a dog and can't get on the table, I can't go. I want to say, Bing Cao, you can't go empty-handed, you have to prepare some gifts anyway? Otherwise, you can It’s a little rude. If County Magistrate Wu is unhappy, it’s easy for us to wear small shoes.”
"Bring a gift?" Gao Yuan thought for a while, and it seemed that County Magistrate Wu didn't lack anything. He was much richer than himself, and I still owe him a thousand guan. Ling may not be appreciated, and there must be more people giving gifts by then, how can we, a poor soldier, compare to those people, but it is better not to take anything, it will look different!"
"It's different like this?" Sun Xiao said earnestly: "Bingcao, it's his business whether he likes it or not, but it's our business whether to give it or not. It's not a question of the weight of the gift, but an attitude It's a question of respect for the county magistrate!"
Gao Yuan sat up with a hoot, "Sun Xiao, I didn't realize that you were so familiar with the world before!"
"Bingcao, I'm afraid that the county magistrate will make things difficult for us. It really won't work. When Tian Cheng comes back, you ask him to pay some money from the public account. Isn't it somewhat polite?" Sun Xiao spread his hands. /
"Which one won't work!" Gao Yuan said, "All money has a place to go. Tian Cheng calculated it with me a few days ago, and we don't have a budget for giving gifts."
"This is considered to be given by our whole team. Everyone pooled it together. The salary was paid not long ago, and everyone didn't have a chance to go out to spend the money. They should all be in their hands. One cent for each will be a lot. !" Sun Xiao came up with an idea.
Gao Yuan was annoyed all of a sudden, and looked at Sun Xiao sideways, "Sun Xiao, I found that you are quite energetic, by the way, do you still have the strength now?"
Sun Xiao raised his chest, "Bingcao said before that strength is a slave, use it again and again, Sun Xiao has strength."
"Very good, don't you have strength? Aren't you going to give a gift to County Magistrate Wu? I've decided to give it to County Magistrate Wu."
"That's great!" Sun Xiao smiled and said, "I'll prepare for what Bing Cao wants to send."
Gao Yuan sneered and said: "When we were climbing Nanshan Mountain a few days ago, I saw a forest of cold plums on the mountain. I will go to Nanshan, pick the best plum blossoms for me, and I will send them to him.”
Ah! Sun Xiao is stunned.
"Go quickly, this is a military order!" Gao Yuan patted Kang Yan and said loudly.
"Yes, the villain obeys the order!" Sun Xiao straightened up, clenched his left hand and hit his right chest, turned around, and strode out.
"It's not bad to send a bunch of plum blossoms!" Gao Yuannian survived Sun Xiaoyuan's passing figure, turned over, and fell asleep soundly.
When Cao Tiancheng came back, it was almost dark. He walked into Gao Yuan's room and saw Gao Yuan holding a bunch of plum blossoms and was about to go out. He couldn't help being very surprised, "Bing Cao, where are you going?"
Gao Yuan raised the plum blossom in his hand, "Oh, County Magistrate Wu's 50th birthday, please invite me over for a drink. By the way, He Lanxiong's affairs are all over?"
Cao Tiancheng pointed behind him, a dozen soldiers driving hundreds of sheep were marching forward.
"Bingcao, go to the birthday banquet, what are you doing with a few plum blossoms?"
"This is my birthday gift to County Magistrate Wu." After finishing the sentence, Cao Tiancheng, who was stunned and stunned, went to the stable to lead the horse, turned on his back and rode away.
"Sun Xiao, Sun Xiao!" Cao Tiancheng rushed into the barracks angrily, "Bing Cao took a few plum blossoms as a birthday present. In the future, there will be some small shoes to wear, why don't you dissuade them?"
Sun Xiao lazily hid on the bunk, "I persuaded him, and now there is a bunch of plum blossoms. Originally, our soldiers were going to go empty-handed, but after I persuaded him a few more words, he became annoyed and forced I went to Nanshan to pick plum blossoms. In this snowy day, I was frozen to death, and the road was slippery, so I fell several times.”
The two smiled wryly at each other. When they met a maverick boss, they really couldn't laugh or cry, so they could only secretly worry in their hearts.
As a local representative of Fufeng County, the Wu family is not only the richest man, but also the county magistrate who has been re-elected for many years. His family's mansion is naturally the first in Fufeng. The Zhu family is too strong. Their family occupies almost half of one of the streets in Fufeng County. This is just their residence. In addition, most of his family's business is in the farm outside the city. If you count all these, The land occupied by his family is even more astonishing.
Because Gao Yuan's wine recipe tied him together with Wu Kai and Pao Hong, the relationship between Lu Hong and Wu Kai is very good now. Wu Kai's 50th birthday, Lu Hong brought gifts early Come to congratulate him, Wu Kai had just personally welcomed him in, He Zhu came with a dozen servants carrying five or six boxes all the way through the snow, Huo Zhu, as the postal supervisor of Fufeng, Wu Kai naturally got it out of emotion and reason. Go out to greet them in person. The two were intimate at the door for a long time. Before the polite words were finished, there was already the sound of horseshoes at the end of the street, and a tall horse appeared in everyone's sight.
At the gate of the Wu Mansion at this time, besides the servants of the two mansions, there were many other guests. As soon as Gao Yuan appeared on the stage, he immediately won the attention of everyone. This horse. Fufeng people have never seen horses before, but it is because they know horses and understand horses that they are even more surprised, because the horse under Gao Yuan's crotch is a serious war horse, and it is among the horses. In Fufeng, it is very difficult for Dayan people to own such good war horses. Good horses are either in the hands of Huns or Donghu people, and it is generally impossible for them to sell good horses to Dayan people. .Even Lu Hong has only one horse that is too old to walk.
Gao Yuan gave Lu Hong a horse, but Lu Hong couldn't bear to ride it. He planned to present such a good horse when he was going to give the prefect Zhang Shouyue a new year gift. He rode over on a horse, it was nothing more than a horse, especially since he was holding a bouquet of plum blossoms in full bloom in his hand, but it was as eye-catching as it could be.
Huo Zhu couldn't help but feel happy when he saw it. Wu Kai is the number one person in Fufeng County, and he is the most face-saving person. Gao Yuan came here like this, so he has no reason to be angry. It's because of Wu Kai. In the future, I can unite with Wu Kai to take care of this bastard. This guy has caused me to lose a lot of money. Some time ago, he forced Huo Tianliang to write an IOU. As a result, Sun Xiao, a soldier, was separated from each other. Wudi blocked He Tianliang on the street to press for debts, which made him quite embarrassing as the postmaster. But Sun Xiao was just a piece of hob meat, he would not eat hard and soft, and he was Lu Hong's subordinate, so he really was There was no way to take him, and in the end, he had to spend money to avoid disaster, and he was only done if he gave him money, but because of this, Huo Zhuke hated Gao Yuan even more. If Sun Xiao didn't have his backing, how could Sun Xiao have such courage.
Huo Zhu, who was waiting to see Wu Kai's rebuttal, was furious, and then he was dumbfounded. When he saw Gao Yuan approaching, Wu Kai cupped his fists and said apology to him, and went down the steps himself. You know, Even if it was Huo Zhulai, Wu Kai just walked out the door, but did not go down the steps.
Gao Yuan dismounted from his horse, with a pleasant smile, and greeted Wu Kai with a deep bow, "Master Wu, I wish you a long life like Nanshan, happiness like the East China Sea, every year you have today, every year you have today! This is picked by the humble staff from Nanshan. Congratulate Master Wu with a bunch of plum blossoms!" Gao Yuan shamelessly took Sun Xiao's hard work for himself.
Wu Kai didn't think that this bouquet of plum blossoms was Gao Yuan's congratulatory gift. He laughed and scolded Gao Yuan for being stingy in his heart, but thinking that he still owed him a thousand pennies, he felt relieved. This guy is a poor man. In this weather, Going to Nanshan to pick a bunch of plums in person is a good idea.
Stretching out his hand to take the plum blossoms, "My nephew has a heart. Come and make a good vase immediately, raise this bunch of plum blossoms, and put them in the hall!" Wu Kai said loudly.
Huo Zhu sneered at the side: "Gao Yuan, County Magistrate Wu's 50th birthday is such a festive day, it's fine if you don't come, but you come so casually, doesn't it mean you don't take County Magistrate Wu seriously? "
Gao Yuan was taken aback, before he had time to answer, Wu Kai smiled and said: "Master Huo, you have misunderstood nephew Gao Xian, the bouquet of plums that my nephew gave today has a lot of meaning and meaning Deep meaning!"
I didn't expect Wu Kai to explain to Gao Yuan, Huo Zhu was annoyed, and he felt embarrassed. Originally, when he said this, everyone would go downhill, so that's all, but he just broke the casserole and asked the end, " Oh, I really haven't seen the deep meaning of this, can Mr. Wu clear up my doubts?" He really wanted to see Gao Yuan make a fool of himself.
Wu Kaiben just said that casually, but he didn't expect that Huo Zhu would hit a snake with a stick, and even **** himself. Well, I frowned, and thanks to his reading a lot, he came up with an excuse in a blink of an eye.
"Master Huo, you don't know this. A plum blossom has five petals, and the five-petal plum blossom represents the five blessings ~IndoMTL.com~ for happiness, luck, longevity, smoothness, and peace. The saying of "Four Virtues" is that birth is Yuan, flowering is enjoyment, childbearing is benefit, and maturity is chastity. Nephew Gao Xian is really knowledgeable. On my fiftieth birthday, I presented plum blossoms to celebrate my birthday. The old man is very happy and happy. .”
Hearing Wu Kai's words, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel ashamed. His knowledge is not broad, but thin. Thanks to the county magistrate Wu, he came here at his fingertips. Zhu, this means nothing more than that Huo Zhu didn't even know this, and he really read in vain.
