After Wenren Yunjian and his family of four stood up, Liu Mingzhi straightened his clothes and gave Wenren Yunjian and Chu Youhe a fist with a smile.
"My younger brother Liu Mingzhi, I have met my elder brother and my sister-in-law, so I am polite."
Liu Mingzhi knew very well the principle of reciprocity. Wenren Yunjian and his wife were his wife's eldest brother and sister-in-law.
As the eldest brother and sister-in-law, they have already given themselves gifts.
As the brother-in-law of the couple, how could he not return the favor?
When Wenren Yunjian saw Liu Mingzhi actually saluting his wife, his expression instantly became awkward, and he watched Liu Mingzhi wave his hand repeatedly.
"Don't dare, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Chu Youhe stood beside her husband at a loss, looking at Liu Mingzhi nervously. Although he didn't say anything, he waved his hand hurriedly.
"Thank you, brother, thank you, sister-in-law."
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Wenren Yun Shu walked gently to Liu Mingzhi's side, smiled sweetly at her elder brother, and gave her a blessing.
"My little sister heard about Yun Shu, she has met her eldest brother, and she has met her eldest sister-in-law."
"Little sister, please forgive me."
"Little sister, no gifts, no gifts."
Compared with the awkward appearance when they faced Young Master Liu, Wenren Yunjian and his wife looked much more obedient when they faced Wenren Yunshu, the younger sister.
For the couple, Liu Mingzhi, the king of a country, is in front of the emperor.
The pressure on my heart is not small.
"Thank you, brother, thank you, sister-in-law."
Wenren Yunshu thanked him with a smile and stood up straight with an elegant manner.
Wenren Yunjian breathed a sigh of relief, turned sideways and waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, little sister, let's stop standing and sit down inside."
Liu Mingzhi casually looked at the decoration in the main hall, smiled lightly and walked towards the chair next to him.
"Brother, sister-in-law, please sit down too."
"Okay, okay, sit down here, sit down right here."
Wenren Yunshu followed her husband silently, looking at her eldest brother and sister-in-law with slightly nervous expressions, and shook her head helplessly with a pretty face.
She could naturally see how reserved her eldest brother and sister-in-law were now.
Obviously, the identity of his husband brought pressure to the couple.
Not that big.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
After Wenren Yunjian and his wife saw Liu Mingzhi sitting down, they were about to sit down when they heard the greeting from their younger sister Wenren Yunshu, and subconsciously stopped trying to take a seat.
"Ah? Little sister?"
"Little sister, what, what's wrong?"
Wenren Yunshu sighed helplessly with her pretty face, and walked lightly in front of Wenren Yunjian, Chu Youhe and his wife.
Under the confused gazes of the couple, Wenren Yunshu raised his slender hands and put them on their shoulders, and pushed them to sit on the chairs one after another.
"Brother, sister-in-law, why are you so nervous?
Have you two forgotten what my little sister told you two this morning?
Didn't I already tell you? Husband, he rarely cares about these red tapes.
You can call him by his first name, or call him brother-in-law.
There’s no need to be so formal,”
Wenren Yunjian, Chu Youhe and his wife looked at each other silently, looked at Wenren Yunshu with troubled eyes and shook his head gently.
"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten."
"Little sister, my sister-in-law has not forgotten it either. She remembers every word you said.
But, but. "
While Chu Youhe's red lips were slightly parted as she spoke, she secretly glanced at Liu Mingzhi, who was sitting diagonally opposite.
“However, my sister-in-law can’t help but feel nervous.
After all, brother-in-law, brother-in-law is His Majesty the Emperor. "
Wenren Yunshu was about to say something, but Liu Mingzhi spoke first.
"Shu'er."
"Hey, husband."
"You should also sit down first."
"Yes, I know."
Wenren Yunshu heard her husband's words, turned around, walked to Liu Mingzhi and sat down on the chair.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
"His Majesty."
"Brother, sister-in-law.
You are Shu'er's eldest brother and sister-in-law, and you are also my Liu Mingzhi's eldest brother and sister-in-law.
We are all a family, and every one of you is your Majesty, and every one of you is your Majesty.
Brother, I feel really uncomfortable hearing this.
As Shu'er said just now, I really don't care much about these red tapes.
Brother, sister-in-law, if you are not used to calling me by my name, just call me brother-in-law.
There are not so many rules among a family. "
Wenren Yunjian frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, then looked at Liu Mingzhi and nodded with difficulty.
"This! Then! Then my eldest brother will have the guts to call you brother-in-law."
"Hey, that's right!"
Seeing Young Master Liu's cheerful reaction, Wenren Yunshu's nervousness gradually eased a bit.
"lady."
Chu Youhe took a deep breath, looked at Liu Mingzhi pretending to be calm, and lightly opened her red lips and said, "Sister...brother-in-law."
"Sister-in-law."
Liu Mingzhi responded with a chuckle and turned his attention to Wenren Changqing and Wenren Qingyue next to him.
"Evergreen, clear moon."
"The grassroots are here."
"The grassroots are here."
"Hehehe, Changqing, Qingyue, both of your parents call me uncle and brother-in-law. Do you still call yourself a commoner?"
Wenren Changqing and Wenren Qingyue looked at each other and scratched their earlobes with their fingers.
"Uncle, my nephew is here."
"Uncle, my niece is here."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask: "Changqing, Qingyue, which one of you is older? Are you brother and sister? Or brother and sister?"
"Back to uncle, my nephew is my elder brother, and Qingyue is my nephew's sister."
"Well, they are siblings. How old are you two siblings?"
"Back to uncle, my nephew is twenty-five this year."
"To answer my uncle's question, Qingyue is now eighteen years old."
"Okay! Okay! Okay! One is in his prime, the other is in his prime.
It’s a great time of life!
You two brothers and sisters, stop standing and sit down. "
"Thank you, uncle."
Wenren Changqing and Wenren Qingyue, brother and sister, thanked each other in unison, walked to the lower seats next to their parents and sat down.
Liu Mingzhi scanned the hall for a week, looked at Wenren Yunjian and asked, "Where are the eldest brother, old man, father-in-law, mother-in-law and the others?"
Wenren Yunjian heard Young Master Liu's inquiry and hurriedly explained: "Brother-in-law, grandpa and father went out half a day ago. They said they had some things to deal with and they would be back soon.
As for my mother, she took the maids to prepare lunch.
Judging by the time, it won't be long before they come back. "
"What, mother-in-law went to prepare lunch?"
Liu Mingzhi asked in question and turned to look outside the main hall, as if he was observing the sky outside.
"Is it too early to prepare lunch at this time?"
Wenren Yunshu stood up and picked up the teapot and walked towards his eldest brother and sister-in-law.
While pouring tea for Wenren Yunjian, Chu Youhe and his wife glanced at their husbands with pretty faces.
"Husband, you have the nerve to say that if grandpa and you guys hadn't drunk too much yesterday and didn't get up for breakfast, my mother wouldn't have gone to prepare lunch so early."
Liu Mingzhi laughed bitterly as he listened to Wenren Yunshu's coquettish words.
"Uh! So that's it."
"Brother, sister-in-law, please have tea."
"Okay, thank you, little sister."
"Thank you, little sister."
"Husband, you also have tea."
"Thank you for your hard work, ma'am."
Just as Wenren Yunshu was about to pour tea for his nephew, Wenren Changqing stood up quickly and took the teapot from his aunt's hand.
"Auntie, the child will do it by himself, the child will do it by himself."
"Silly boy, why are you being polite to your aunt?
Don’t forget, when you were a child, you ran around naked behind your aunt every day! "
Wenren Changqing's face was embarrassed, and he laughed awkwardly.
Wenren Yunshu looked at his nephew's embarrassed expression, smiled and raised his slender hands to rub his nephew's head a few times.
"You brat, when you grow up, you are ashamed now.
By the way, I was so busy this morning that my aunt forgot to ask you, Yun Jian, are you married? "
Wenren Changqing nodded hurriedly, looked at Wenren Yun and said calmly: "Auntie, my child is already in his mid-twenties this year, how can he not get married?
When the child was seventeen, he already had a family and started a business. The daughter is already seven years old this year, and the son should be five years old. . "
Wenren Yunshu's pretty face was stunned. After she realized what she was doing, she asked in surprise, "What? You're already married? Even the eldest child is seven years old?"
"Yes, the child is already married, and the children under his knees are already quite old."
"Then why didn't you bring your wife and children with you when you came home this time?
You brat, why didn't you tell your aunt about this in the morning? "
Wenren Changqing glanced at his father and mother, and smiled hesitantly.
"What's wrong? Why don't you say anything? Just say what you want to say."
"Auntie, our family received a letter from grandpa and learned that you and your uncle came back with your little cousin.
Grandpa described the identity of his uncle in detail in the letter. We were afraid that it would be rude if the whole family came over...
then……
Aunt, you..."
Wenren Yunshu looked at his nephew who was stumbling when he spoke, and already understood what he wanted to express.
Wenren Yunshu tapped his nephew's forehead lightly with his finger, and shook his head with an angry look on his pretty face.
"Oh, you guys."
"Shu'er."
"Hey, husband?"
Liu Mingzhi put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Wenren Changqing with a smile.
"Shu'er, let alone Changqing, my husband can still stay at home for about two days.
The eldest brother and his family live in the north of the city. Just ask Changqing to bring his family back to see him in the afternoon. "
"Okay, I know."
Wenren Yunshu responded to her husband's words and reached out to pick up the teapot that her nephew had placed on the table.
"Drink your tea."
"Yes, yes, thank you, aunt."
"Qingyue."
"aunt?"
"You drink tea too."
"Thank you, aunt."
"By the way, Qingyue, have you left the cabinet now?"
Wenren Qingyue blushed and shook her head hurriedly.
"Auntie, Qingyue hasn't left the cabinet yet!"
"Do you have someone you like?"
"Aunt~"
Wenren Yunshu saw the shy expression on his niece Wenren Qingyue's pretty face, and realized that it was inappropriate for him to ask this question in front of so many people.
"Auntie is wrong, auntie is wrong, auntie doesn't ask anymore."
Wenren Yunshu pursed her red lips with a slight smile, returned to her original position with the tea party and sat down.
Just as Wen Ren Yunshu sat down, the words of the old man Wen Ren Zheng were heard outside the hall.
"Boy, the old man is back."
As soon as Wen Renzheng finished speaking, the father and son walked into the hall.
"The boy has met the old man and his father-in-law."
"I've met grandpa, I've met dad."
"Greetings to great grandpa, hello to grandpa."
"No gifts, no gifts."
"Thank you, old man, thank you father-in-law..."
Everyone exchanged greetings with each other, and sat in the hall chatting and laughing about household matters and interesting anecdotes.
Perhaps it was because yesterday's reception banquet was such that the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, the invisible barrier between Liu Mingzhi and his father-in-law Wen Renxuanhe was unconsciously reduced.
The topics of chat among each other gradually increased.
Gradually many topics were discussed together.
It's not like yesterday when we first met, when we looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
About half an hour later, Liu Yulan led a group of maids carrying trays into the main hall with smiles on their faces.
"Master, master, you are back."
"came back."
"The matter is settled, madam. Is the meal ready?"
"Everyone is ready, please take your seats."
"Taoer, Luer."
"My slave is here."
"Hurry up and put the food and wine on the table Yiyi."
"Slave, I obey."
"Old man, old man, Mingzhi, Jian'er...Shu'er, please take a seat and have a meal."
After everyone sat down, Wen Renxuanhe looked at his wife Liu Yulan with a slight frown.
"Madam, why did you prepare these bottles of wine?
There are so many good drinkers, what can they do with just a few jugs of wine? "
"Master, Master, Mingzhi, you just had a drink yesterday, and I am here for your health..."
Before Liu Yulan finished speaking, Wen Renxuanhe looked at the housekeeper standing aside.
"Old Tao."
"The old slave is here."
"You take Tao'er and the others to the wine cellar to get some wine, and get drunk with the Ten Altar Immortals first."
"Yes, I obey my orders."
When Liu Yulan heard her master's words, she looked helplessly at Wen Renzheng.
"Old man."
Wen Renzheng happily stroked his beard and cast his gaze on Young Master Liu.
"Boy?"
Liu Mingzhi touched his nose with a strange expression and glanced at Wenren Yunshu, who was sitting next to him.
"Both the old man and the young man are fine."
Wenren Yunshu heard her husband's words, glanced at her mother, and rolled her eyes helplessly with a pretty face.
"Mom, let's just concentrate on eating with my sister-in-law."
Liu Yulan looked at Liu Mingzhi and the others, and nodded with a wry smile.
"Come on, just be happy."
After a while of tea, Old Tao led several maids to place a jar of wine next to the table.
"Master, the wine is here."
"Okay, Lao Tao,"
"The old slave is here."
"You go and do your own business first."
"Yes, I will resign, old slave."
"Slave, please leave."
"Mingzhi, Jian'er."
"Father-in-law."
"father."
"Unfortunately, you two brothers didn't have a drink together yesterday.
Today is the right time, so you two brothers should have a few drinks. "
"Get drunk and then you'll rest."
"It's just what you want."
A drinking party with a close friend and a thousand glasses of wine started again amidst laughter and laughter.
Wenren Yunshu picked up a pair of chopsticks and put it on Young Master Liu's plate, then touched her husband's arm with her elbow in a subtle way.
"Husband, drink less."
"Madam, don't worry, I am responsible for my husband."
Time flew by like a flash, and when the sun was just setting, several people at the wine table were already drunk and blurry.
Wen Renxuan and the master even slumped on their chairs and became drunk and unconscious.
Wenren Yunshu looked at Mr. Liu who was swaying around in his chair, almost unsteady, and snorted with an angry look on his pretty face.
"Mom, I'll leave this to you. I'll help this drunkard back to rest first."
Liu Yulan glanced at the old man and Wenren Yunjian, who were still holding wine glasses to drink with each other, and waved her hands with a frown.
"Go, go, don't forget to wipe Mingzhi's body with warm water."
"Shu'er knows."
"What... what are you doing? This young master... I haven't had enough to drink yet."
"Yes, yes, you are huge. Let's go back and continue drinking."
"Lan'er."
"My slave is here."
"Put it up."
"ah?"
"Ah what, set it up."
"Yes, yes, slave, I obey."
Two days later.
Outside the gate of Wenren Mansion.
Liu Mingzhi tied the wine bag around his waist, looked at the people standing outside the house, and hugged his fist with a sad expression.
"Old man, father-in-law, mother-in-law, eldest brother...
You can stay, there is no need to send me away again. "
Everyone sighed with emotion and waved to Young Master Liu.
"Bon Voyage."
"Shu'er."
"Husband?"
"Whenever you want to return to the capital, send a letter to your husband Ying Falcon in advance, and I will send someone to protect you secretly."
"Yeah, I understand. Husband, you must pay more attention to your health on the road.
Autumn nights are cool, so be sure to wear more clothes when you are on the road. "
"Okay, my husband knows."
"text."
"Daddy?"
"You brat, you must be obedient and don't cause trouble for your grandparents.
Otherwise, your father will not be able to spare you when you return to Beijing. "
Liu Zhengwen looked at his father's serious expression and nodded hurriedly.
"Daddy, the kid knows."
"Evergreen, clear moon."
"Uncle?"
"Uncle?"
"If you want to come to the capital, just tell your aunt and let her take you there."
"Thank you, uncle."
"Everyone, take care, Liu Mingzhi goes first."
"I won't send you far."
Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the horse's reins and clamped heavily on the horse's belly.
"drive!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone with different expressions.
Liu Mingzhi jumped on his horse, whipped his whip, and rode away.
At the north gate of Chengzhou, Liu Mingzhi waved his whip heavily after riding his horse out of the city gate.
"drive."
At Liu Mingzhi's order, Fengxing, a horse with blood that traveled thousands of miles a day and eight hundred miles a night, started galloping down the official road with all four hooves.
On the official road about a mile away from the city gate, Liu Mingzhi was galloping towards him.
A graceful figure wearing a gauze bamboo hat and a medicine basket on his back walked towards the city gate, facing Mr. Liu.
After casually glancing at the figure walking alone on the official road, Young Master Liu waved the riding crop in his hand again.
"drive!"
The breeze stirred up when Liu Mingzhi was galloping, passed by the figure.
He directly rolled up the gauze under the bamboo hat of the person next to him.
The moment he passed by, Liu Mingzhi glanced at others out of habit.
Just this glimpse.
Young Master Liu's face suddenly turned sideways, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his whole person felt like he was struck by thunder.
"Hush!"
"Hush!"
Xilulu... Xilulu...
The neighing sound of Fengxing Xilulu echoed on the official road, causing the passerby to look back subconsciously.
In an instant.
The wind seems to have stopped!
