Chapter 36 The Thirty-fourth Round

It was just six o'clock in the afternoon, Yanxi could not urge the cook, so he set the table in the dining room.Because Feng Ju had to be perfunctory in front of her parents, she came as soon as the time came.Hesun made an appointment with a few people early today, and booked a room in the theater. After dinner, he was going to listen to the play.As for Fengju, there is another small mansion, and she is thinking about the loneliness of the new lady spending the holidays alone.Today's family dinner is so early, which is exactly what I want.So during the banquet, everyone didn't have any suggestions, just joking around.Mei Li said: "Seventh Brother, why don't you take me to the opera?" Yanxi said: "Tonight, nine out of ten are plays like Chang'e Flying to the Moon, haven't you gotten tired of watching that kind of play?" "Mei Li said: "Then, let's go watch a movie." Yanxi said: "Isn't it possible? It's too late." Mei Li said: "It's only past seven o'clock, why is it too late?" Yanxi pointed at Feng Ju Said: "Go to elder brother, he said in the afternoon that we are going to watch a movie tonight." Feng Ju said with a smile: "You are talking nonsense! When did I say that I will watch a movie tonight?" Mrs. Jin Said: "You just invite her to watch a movie, it's nothing. I see you are pushing and resisting like this." Liu Shouhua laughed and said: "I'll treat her here. If you want to go, you can join as you like." Seeing Liu Shouhua relieved of the siege, he was very happy as if he had received an amnesty.After Xi dispersed, everyone sneaked away, and Peng Zhenzao sneaked into Yanxi's room to wait.Yanxi came and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's already past eight o'clock." Pengzhen said: "There are not many roads, let's go, so as not to startle the snake." Yanxi said: "Of course, it's best I'll go first, you'll come later, don't go together." Peng Zhen laughed and said, "You're a guilty conscience, don't you allow us to walk together?" So they put on their hats and walked out of the gate without saying a word.The second Liu who treated the guests was a close confidant of Jin Quan's, named Baoshan.He turned out to be a poor man, but he was single-handedly promoted by Jin Quan, and now he has a family property of 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.He rented a house outside the Jin family's residence, Wuyi Lane.Now the tax office works as an idler, and he only goes to the office for one or two hours a day, and the rest sits idle at home.In addition, do some small letters with Jin Quan.Because he often went to and from the golden house, he got very close with a group of buddies and had a very good relationship.Brothers have any private gatherings, they are all held at Liu's house.The Liu family's house is very exquisite, and he employs a few good servants and two good cooks to serve the guests, which is easy to satisfy.This time Hua Yuxian's treat was originally his envoy, and of course it was at his home.Apart from Pengzhen's two brothers, the invited guests included Yufen's brother Wang Youchun, Fengju's friends Zhao Mengyuan and Li Shouhe, and Yanxi's classmates Kong Xueni and Meng Jizu.As soon as Peng Zhen entered the gate, everyone burst into laughter.Wang Youchun first smiled and said: "I guess you still have an hour to come. Unexpectedly, this is here. It's really rare." It turns out that Wang Youchun is Pengzhen's brother-in-law, but he is quite cooperative when playing outside. He is in front of Yufen , not only kept secrets, but also spoke extremely well of Peng Zhen, so Peng Zhen did not hide anything from Youchun when he was out touting opera singers or visiting alleys.What's more, those who travel with each other have the same news, and there is nothing to hide.Peng Zhen smiled and said: "Today we are talking about special invitations, trying to advance the meal at home by two hours. Where is Yuxian?" Liu Baoshan said: "Because of her stomachache, she asked for leave temporarily and planned to invite someone Act as a representative." Peng Zhen smiled and said, "It's up to you?" Liu Baoshan said, "Don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet. What she meant was that she wanted Wang Jinyu to be her representative, but Jinyu also refused. She said she was not feeling well, so she refused to come. As far as I can see, neither of them has any serious illness, and there are other reasons why they couldn't come." Peng Zhen said, "What's the reason?" Liu Baoshan said, "Yuxian didn't have a stomachache. Is it? I don’t think it’s painful, but it’s about to have a baby.” Seeing him say this, Peng Zhen squinted his eyes and raised his voice, already understanding.Yin said: "If Jin Yu doesn't come, is he also adding a child at home?" Liu Baoshan said: "Probably so? Guess, what should these two children be born with?" Meng Jizu said: "What is the surname?" Naturally, the surname is Jin." As soon as this sentence was finished, the embroidered screen on the right moved, and two young girls in long clothes came out, one was Hua Yuxian and the other was Wang Jinyu.Hua Yuxian pointed to Meng Jizu and said, "How much should I be punished?" Meng Jizu smiled and said, "Why should I be punished?" "Even if I'm wrong, I'm not the only one who said this." Hua Yuxian turned around, raised her eyelids at Liu Baoshan, puffed her cheeks, and said, "Hmph! Second Master Liu will also have to be punished." Liu Baoshan tilted his head, looked at Hua Yuxian's face, and said with a smile: "Boss Hua, do you really want to punish me? Don't let me say good things." Hua Yuxian said: "Just choose the good ones and say, What are you afraid of?" Liu Baoshan said with a smile: "Come on! It's not just a matter of saying it, why just mention him?" Hua Yuxian pulled his sleeve, kept jumping his feet, and said: "You say you Say it, you have to say it!" Peng Zhen frowned and said, "Come on, let's talk politely for a while, don't make too much noise." Hua Yuxian said: "Who will make a scene first? Now, Tell me!" Peng Zhen took her hand, pulled her to sit on a sofa chair, patted the side with his hand, and smiled at Wang Jinyu: "You sit down too." Wang Jinyu and Peng Zhen Nodding his head, he said with a smile, "Qianqiantuo, thank you for sitting down." He also sat down next to Pengzhen.Wang Youchun jumped up on the chair, and said: "What are you talking about? I'll be with him alone. Jinyu, should we get along well, can we make it?" Wang Jinyu said with a smile: "If it's good, then it should be good, what's the matter?" If so, immediately sit with Wang Youchun.Kong Xueni shook his head and said: "The benefits are all for your buddies, so others don't get any share?" Hua Yuxian said: "There are two of us, one of you wants to get a bit of fragrance, and the other also needs to get a little bit of fragrance, so what should we do? Just separate us. That's it again, I have a better relationship with the third master, and I should stay with him more." When he said that, he squinted at Peng Zhen and said with a smile: "Third master, What do you say?" Peng Zhen laughed and said, "Let's be honest, there are several widows here, the more you tease them, the more anxious they become." Meng Jizu said: "What are you anxious about? When the third brother didn't come, we

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and it was late at night, Yanxi took the white lotus back to the middle of the yard to watch the moon.I saw that the moon was already to the west of the top of the pagoda tree, the blue sky was faint, and there was no cloud at all.In addition to the moon wheel, there is a moon halo, which is like a big circle tied with colorful silk. The moon is already very bright, but when it is set off by the colorful moon halo, it is dazzling.I even called out a few times.When everyone heard it, they all flocked to the yard to watch.Yanxi said: "It's a pity that the yard is too small and there is no water, otherwise, the moonlight will be more beautiful than the moon." Meng Jizu laughed and said: "Seventh brother's book has made great progress. It is extraordinary, and it is as big as before. It's different." Yanxi said with a smile, "It's been a three-day farewell to Shibai, and I've seen him with admiration." Liu Baoshan said, "I seem to have heard that Qi Ye has made a very knowledgeable girlfriend now, and probably his knowledge has improved now. Is it all taught by that lady?" Yanxi only smiled when she heard that, but remembered something in her heart.Tonight, Qingqiu watched the moon alone at home, she was extremely calm, no matter what, I should go to see her tonight.But by this time, it was already late at night, even if I went to find her, she would fall asleep.The moon tomorrow night must be pretty good, let's go find her tomorrow.But I didn't make a face-to-face meeting tonight, I'm afraid I will be offended.Thinking of this, I feel listless.Feeling unhappy, he put off Bai Lianhua and said to Peng Zhen: "We have all come out, it seems that we should let someone go home first, I'll go back first." Peng Zhen also felt that the brothers were all outside, Something is wrong, and I agree with him.He took this opportunity and went home first.
