The Bai Song Dynasty was so kind that it was hard to refuse official assignments.
Before night falls, we return to the Sanyuan Restaurant we visited at noon.
This time there were six more government servants, and a group of people filled the table.
This restaurant's food and wine didn't hold much favor in Bai Song's heart, but it was coveted by the government officials.
Although the restaurant is small, it is also high-end in Mang County.
The wine and food are expensive, and it mainly caters to vendors and tourists traveling through Mang County.
Very few local people can show their faces here.
Even the yamen rarely drink and eat meat here. Seeing a table of wine and food served, the yamen no longer restrained themselves. He raised his glass and said to Bai Song: "Young Master Bai is so young, but he is so cheerful. It is really rare. More It is a pity that he has so many talents and has submitted himself to the Lin family as a son-in-law. After drinking this glass of wine, we will become brothers in the future. Old Xing, I am only a few years older than Mr. Bai, so I will shamelessly call him Bai Xiandi."
Bai Song didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. He carefully looked at the stubble on the Yatou's face and wrinkles on his forehead, and thought to himself, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as growing a few years older, right?"
Bai Song was thinking in his mind, but Mian'er happily raised his hand, drank the turbid wine in the cup in one gulp, and then made an unbearable gesture, which made the officials laugh.
"Brother Bai Xian, your drinking capacity is far behind compared to your medical skills."
Bai Song grimaced and explained in a low voice: "It's not because of my drinking capacity, but in fact this wine is poor and difficult to drink."
Lao Xing didn't take it seriously after hearing this: "Brother Bai Xian, what you said is biased. If the wine in Sanyuan Restaurant is difficult to drink, don't you know what kind of wine in the world can be tasted?"
"This wine is turbid, with many miscellaneous flavors, and the wine taste is too strong, which irritates the throat. Real wine should be crystal clear, full of aroma, spicy and stimulating, but the aftertaste is full of fragrance. Good wine must avoid the turbidity caused by grains. , take the essence of the grains, remove the turbidity, and leave the fragrance. With just one cup, this building can be filled with the smell of wine, and just the smell of it can make people intoxicated."
"Hahaha..." The officials laughed. Although they had no words to refute, they already showed their disbelief in their hearts.
"Xing Captou, it's useless to talk too much today. I will make my own wine someday. I will bring a pot and ask Xing Captou to taste it and see if what I say is true or false."
The words were paused for the time being, and then Bai Rou poured wine for everyone on the side, her mouth full of sweet words of gratitude.
The rest of the officials were indifferent, but Liu Dabao was distracted, and his eyes did not move when he looked at Bai Rou.
Among these officials, Liu Dabao is the youngest, and he is the only one who is not yet married.
The minds of everyone at the table were like mirrors, and they knew exactly what this kid was thinking.
It's just that Liu Dabao had asked before, but he refused Bai Song firmly.
Now, even though the brothers are trying to bring things together, they don't know how to speak.
Xing Captou looked at it, sighed, and patted Liu Dabao on the shoulder: "Hey, I have to work hard in the future and do something big, so that I can impress the little girl from the Bai family."
Xing Captou's voice was loud enough that both Bai Song and Bai Rou could understand it.
Bai Song frowned slightly and did not answer.
Bai Rou glanced at her brother and thought about Liu Dabao's heroic protection earlier.
Xiao Nizi thought for a while, not knowing what to say, and finally whispered to Xing Captou: "Brother said, Bai Rou is still young and cannot consider marriage before she is twenty."
Bai Rou is not a daughter of a wealthy family, so she doesn't feel too shy when talking about marriage.
When Xing Captou heard this, he just thought it was Bai Song's excuse. How could a girl get married in her twenties?
He immediately smiled bitterly and looked at Liu Dabao.
Liu Dabao's eyes were a little disappointed, and he smiled naively: "Boss, you are still young, and you have no idea of marrying for the time being. Let's talk about it in two years... in two years..."
While the people at the table were discussing, Bai Song was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.
Bai Song turned around and saw an old man with a kind face and a kind face. He was estimated to be in his seventies. His face was full of wrinkles and his body was slightly thin.
He was wearing a low-key gray jacket without any embroidery, but it was wrapped with a jade-inlaid belt, which made it look even more noble.
There was a gourd hanging from the belt, the lid was open, and the aroma of wine wafted out from inside.
When Bai Song saw the old man, he didn't say anything yet. However, after Xing Bao looked him up and down, he asked softly: "Old man, your face is tight."
"Replying to the Master Chai, I have just moved here and live in the corner of the street across from Sanyuan Restaurant."
Captain Xing nodded: "Oh, so it's you who bought a house on Zhengyang Street? I heard about it today, but I haven't had time to visit yet."
The old man smiled and handed over his hands: "I will ask you to take good care of me in the future."
"It's easy to talk about."
The old man turned his attention to Bai Song again: "Little brother, I heard you say before that you can make the truly good wine you described?"
Bai Song looked the old man up and down, then nodded: "That's right."
"Hiss..." the old man smacked his lips, "I wonder if I can let me have a taste?"
"Of course it's no problem."
The old man's face was full of joy, but Bai Song immediately changed his tone.
“But the brewing hasn’t started yet!”
The old man's joy gradually faded and he shook his head: "What a pity."
The old man obviously didn't believe it, and an official couldn't help but said: "Old man, I'm afraid you don't know what Brother Bai is capable of. That epidemic..."
"Ahem..." Xing Captou coughed dryly and planned his words.
Everyone here knows that Bai Song is an expert in mixing fairy water.
Although he didn't know the reason, Brother Bai didn't want to reveal his identity. Naturally, he didn't want anyone to know about it.
The men shut up and ate their food with a dry smile.
The old man also returned to his seat and concentrated on drinking, looking intoxicated.
At this moment, another official came upstairs and whispered a few words in Xing Baotou's ear with a serious expression.
Xing Baotou's face gradually darkened.
After the officer finished speaking, he was about to leave. Bai Song stood up and said, "Brother, have a glass of wine before leaving..."
"Mr. Bai, there is still something going on in the yamen, so drink slowly."
After that, he left in a hurry.
At this time, Capt. Xing stepped forward and said, "Brother Bai Xian, the person behind the scenes has been asked. But...it's probably hard for us brothers to help Brother Bai Xian."
"Who is it?"
"Young master of the Lin family, Lin Xun."
"Lin Xun?"
Bai Song didn't have much impression of this person, but one night he was arrested by his servants. It seemed that it was Lin Xun who wanted to enforce the family law.
"Buying a murderer to kill someone is such a crime, and Capt. Xing can't handle it?"
Capt. Xing smiled bitterly: "If it had been someone else, I, Old Xing, would have taken my brothers to arrest the person right away. If it were the young master of the Lin family, things would be difficult to handle. In Mang County, the Lin family should not be offended the most. Speaking of us, even Magistrate Chai County would not rush to convict the young master of the Lin family. All counties and ethnic groups in Youzhou are united with each other, and they are deeply rooted in Youzhou..."
"Understood." Bai Song interrupted softly, "If Capt. Xing touches the young master of the Lin family, not only will Capt. Xing's job be guaranteed, but the jobs of his brothers will also be in danger."
Xing Baotou looked embarrassed and sighed: "Brother Bai Xian, if the young master of the Lin family really wants to deal with you, you should be more careful in the Lin family."
"I have my own plan for this matter, so I don't have to worry about it."
It was Lin Xun who gave the secret instructions!
Bai Song didn't expect it.
Since he knew that someone was causing trouble for him, Bai Song would not pretend that nothing happened.
This kid must find a way to cure him.
…
When Bai Song returns home tonight, he will put his sister to bed first.
Then he sneaked to the door of Xiang'er's room.
Xiang'er was about to go to bed when she heard someone knocking on the door. She opened a crack in the door to look around, but Bai Song pushed it open and slipped in directly.
"you……"
"Shh... Xiang'er, you must help me this time."
"What's going on? Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
"No, it's about my life and my sister's life."
"Life!" Lin Xiang'er suddenly became nervous.
"Your brother Lin Xun is trying to kill me today!"
"How is it possible? Lin Xun has been studying at home these days, how could he pay for murder..."
"Xiang'er, you don't believe me?"
"No..." Seeing that Bai Song was serious and a little scared, Lin Xiang'er also frowned, "It's just..."
"If you don't believe it, go and confront him tomorrow and see how he responds."
Lin Xun is a well-known dandy in Mang County, with a very bad reputation.
It has always been Lin Tingzheng's heartache.
In Lin Tingzheng's lineage, in addition to Lin Xiang'er and Lin Xun, there is also Lin Xun's sister Lin Zhi.
There is only one son, Lin Xun, and the Lin family's fortune will only be passed on to him in the future.
But Lin Xun didn't know how to make progress since he was a child, and he was always fond of having fun.
He is still young and has little influence on the Lin family.
If this continues, it will affect the reputation of the Lin family over time.
Lin Tingzheng hopes that after this year's review, Lin Xun can stand out among the young members of the family and win some reputation for the Lin family.
Therefore, a teacher from Luoyang was specially invited to teach Lin Xun.
Now that the New Year's Eve is coming, Lin Xun himself is feeling the pressure.
I haven't wandered out for half a month, and I honestly started learning poetry at home.
Lin Xiang'er thought about it for a long time, but she didn't know whether it was true or not.
So he nodded: "Okay, I will go and confront him early tomorrow morning. If he really dares to do such evil, I will report it to dad."
"That way, I feel relieved."
Bai Song patted his chest, looking overly frightened.
Lin Xiang'er looked at him and didn't speak for a long time. It wasn't until her face turned slightly red that she asked in a low voice: "You...when will you leave?"
"Xiang'er, I almost died outside, are you so cruel that you want to drive me away?"
"..." Lin Xiang'er's face turned red, "You... you just found a reason to hang on..."
"Xiang'er... people are afraid!"
Bai Song burst into tears and stared pitifully into Xiao Xiang'er's eyes. At this moment, he was the little wife who needed protection.
"Lin Xun is your brother. He has been afraid of you since he was a child. Only with you around can he dare to deal with me."
Lin Xiang'er looked troubled, looking at Xiao Cui who was sleeping next door, and then at her own bed, her voice gradually lowered: "It can't be like that day..."
Bai Song chuckled: "Don't worry, sir, I will behave myself."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiang'er, he took off his clothes and got into the quilt.
Lin Xiang'er frowned and complained in a low voice: "I just said that I would wait for a while, why is it like this tonight? You are really a liar!"
After all, people are just like last night, delicately undressing and taking off their belts, and then getting into the quilt delicately.
Tonight, Bai Songweihou hurriedly took the beauty into his arms, carefully took out a silver needle, and gently pierced it somewhere in the back of Xiang'er's head.
