At the end of the seventh year of Zhenghe, at the dinner party in the Hero Building, the hero Hei Fenghu Niugao met his fate.
A poem about a full moon by a white turtle impressed his brother-in-law Zhu Fu. Cao Cao took advantage of the situation and said: "Brother Zhu Fu, these are all brothers here. There is no need to see others. Ask your sister. If she doesn't like Niu Gao, I will advise you." Now that this guy is done, if she also has this intention, wouldn’t it be a marriage sent by God?”
Zhu Fushen thought so and stood up and said, "Brother is right. I will call my sister to ask."
Cao Cao said: "Wait a minute, let these brothers here, there are some who don't know their rank, joking and making noises, her daughter has a tender face, isn't she shy? You and I will only take Niu Gao and go alone to see her."
Zhu Fu said happily: "Brother is the one who knows everything. My girl is helping in the kitchen."
Cao Cao stood up and helped Niu Gao and said, "As my brother, I will take you on a blind date. If the full moon girl doesn't like you, I'm a man and don't be angry, Luo Su."
Niu Gao patted his chest and said, "Brother looks down on people so much, how can I not be able to walk around after seeing a woman?"
Cao Cao looked at him suspiciously and believed him, and the three of them went downstairs together.
The kitchen of the Hero Building is a separate two-story building behind the building. It is connected to the main building by a corridor. All kinds of ingredients are stored on the second floor. Most of the first floor is a kitchen, and the smaller half is divided into rooms for cooks and waiters. Waiting for residence.
The three of them entered the back kitchen, where several chefs were in charge of dozens of stoves, frying and cooking, and were busy non-stop.
There is a long table next to it. The dishes and dishes are the same as those upstairs. A broad figure stands in front of the table with one leg on the stool. He does not use chopsticks and only uses his hands to chew.
When Niu Gao saw him, he couldn't walk anymore and was just in a daze.
Cao Cao laughed and said: "She is a bold woman."
Zhu Fu couldn't help but feel ashamed when he saw that his girl was like a beauty. He explained in a low voice: "There are few people today. She has been busy in the kitchen all day. She must be very tired and hungry."
Cao Cao waved his hand and smiled: "It doesn't matter, it's a blessing to be able to eat."
Niu Gao heard this and said happily: "Being able to eat means that you are in good health, and you can also run a household. It is really rare."
Cao Cao wondered: "How do you know how to manage a household?"
Niu Gao watched intently: "Brother, why don't you just point your finger at her without seeing her take a bite? You don't want to waste a drop of oil. How can you run a household?"
Cao Cao was shocked: "Brother, I have always underestimated you, but your eyesight is really extraordinary."
Zhu Fu's face turned red and he said angrily: "Man Yue! I just care about eating! I don't even care who is coming."
Zhu Manyue turned around - there is a saying, this woman's skin is as white as frost and snow, and rare tenderness, and trembles like jelly. If a child sees it, he will definitely want to take a sip. . Looking at the facial features, the willow eyebrows and slender eyes can be considered delicate.
It's just that the plate on his face is a bit too big, especially now that his mouth is bulging and stuffed with food. It looks like a squirrel with a big plate on his face that is getting ready to go home for the winter. It looks at everyone in shock with its eyes, which is quite silly and cute.
Zhu Fu said: "This is my brother Wu Zhi, why don't you come over and pay your respects?"
Seeing that the woman was about to speak, Cao Cao was so frightened that he quickly said: "Don't be too busy talking. Don't get stuck. You can talk slowly after eating."
But he saw Zhu Manyue raised her face and swallowed, and the full food suddenly disappeared. She was blessed and said with a sweet smile: "Brother from the Wu family, have a good New Year."
"Happy New Year, happy New Year!" Lao Cao responded quickly, took out a small gold ingot from his sleeve, and handed it to Zhu Fu: "Take it to your sister. How can I not receive a greeting gift when my brother calls me?"
Zhu Manyue suddenly smiled like a big lotus, jumped forward, and snatched the ingot from Zhu Fu's hand: "Thank you, Brother Wu, now I don't have to look at my brother's face when I buy snacks."
Niu Gao smiled brightly and interjected: "Sister, do you also like snacks? There is a Zhangjia shop on West Street. The Qingzhou Mi Sandao is authentic. Have you tried it?"
Zhu Manyue glanced at him and said proudly: "Of course I have, but the most delicious thing in Zhang's shop is the sugar melon, the second is the wedding cake, and the third is the jujube cake, his jujube cake." Oh..." Before he could finish his words, a glistening drop of saliva fell from the corner of his lips. He quickly reached out to wipe it away, his face turned red.
Niu Gaohan smiled and said: "Is it so delicious? It's a pity that I have only eaten Mi Sandao."
Zhu Manyue tossed the small gold in her hand and said boldly: "Poor thing, since you are also my brother, I will buy it for you when the new year comes."
Niu Gao was overjoyed and said quickly: "How can you tell a girl to waste her money? As a brother, of course I have money, so I bought whatever the girl wanted to eat."
Zhu Manyue's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she said happily: "Are you willing to buy even if I want to eat? You are a much more generous person than my brother. I usually ask him for money to buy fruit, but I spend all my time and often refuse to give him. .”
Zhu Fu frowned and said, "You don't know the heart of a good person when you say this. The girl's family is too rich, how can she still get married?"
Zhu Manyue snorted, raised her face and said, "Who wants to get married? Even if I want to marry, I want to marry someone who is willing to give me food and eat with me."
After hearing this, Niu Gao clapped his chest vigorously and exclaimed: "Isn't it a coincidence? I also swore at the beginning that I only need to find a woman who loves to eat and can eat."
Zhu Manyue said "Ah" and looked at Niu Gao. As soon as their eyes touched, both of them blushed and turned their heads.
Cao Cao smiled and said: "Let's go, it's New Year's Eve. The masters are working hard on their own. Brother Zhu Fu will accompany me to see them."
The two of them walked towards the chefs. When the chefs saw the big boss, they hurriedly saluted. Cao Cao stopped him and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to celebrate the New Year, so there is no need to be polite." He took out his silver and rewarded each of them with a few rewards. On both days, the chefs were all glowing and thanked them one after another.
Cao Cao encouraged him a few words, pulled Zhu Fu, and left the kitchen through another door. Before going out, he faintly heard Zhu Manyue saying: "This eight-treasure duck is Master Zhang's secret. You came here by chance. This I'll give you a duck leg..."
The eighth year of Zhenghe, that is, 1118, arrived as scheduled.
When he got up early on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Cao Cao said to Hu Sanniang and Pan Jinlian: "Brothers from Erlongshan, I want to go and take a look."
Hu Sanniang puffed up her belly and snorted coldly: "Of course the brothers from Erlongshan want to see you, but the beauty from Qingzhou also wants to accompany you?"
Cao Cao looked confused and said: "Which beauty?"
He frowned and thought hard for a moment, then suddenly slapped his leg and said, "Ah! You said Master Li, if my wife hadn't mentioned her, my husband would have almost forgotten about her."
Hu Sanniang and Pan Jinlian suddenly melted and fell down laughing. Hu Sanniang pushed him and said: "You will please me in front of the two of us, so go ahead. My uncle's injury is not getting better either."
Cao Cao said with a smile: "He has the granddaughter of Mr. Zong to accompany him. I'm afraid he would like to go slower."
After some intimacy between the couple, they packed up and left the house. They asked three brothers, Xu Guanzhong, Shi Wengong and Su Ding, to accompany them. Lu Junyi also asked to go with them, so they added Lu Junyi and Yan Qing, six people and six horses, and headed straight for Go to Qingzhou.
Cao Cao and others changed their horses and rode at great speed through the remaining snow, covering a distance of five hundred miles. In only two days, by nightfall on the fifth day of the lunar month, the six of them had arrived in Qingzhou.
The house that Cao Cao built in Qingzhou was not small. When they heard that Cao Cao had arrived, Li Shishi, Wu Song, and Zong Yun'er all came to the door to greet him.
Li Shishi and Wu Song were naturally in high spirits, but Zong Yun'er had a complicated look on his face. He hesitated for a long time and called out the word "big brother" in a low voice. Cao Cao quickly agreed and looked at Wu Song. The older brother laughed loudly, and so did the brothers. With a red face and a grin, he was just happy.
Master Li hurriedly set up a banquet to welcome the wind. During the banquet, Cao Cao introduced everyone to each other without exchanging pleasantries. After hearing Lu Junyi mention a fierce battle with Wu Song and admitting that it was "hard to get a good deal" under Wu Song, Shi Wengong and Su They must all be surprised.
And when Wu Song heard that Shi Wengong and Lu Junyi had fought against Lily, and only lost one move due to the weakness of their horses, he also looked at him differently.
When they heard that Wu Song's injury was actually caused by Zong Yuner, Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong were both shocked. When they looked at Zong Yuner again, they couldn't help but feel in awe.
Cao Cao asked about Wu Song's injury, and Wu Song said happily: "Originally, it would be difficult to recover from such a penetrating injury for more than half a year. Fortunately, Liang Shanbo invited a great doctor named An Daoquan to go to Dengzhou to replace Song. Gongming Healing Gold Seal passed by Qingzhou a year ago, saw my injury, and prescribed some medicine, saying that it would take at most two months to recover."
Cao Cao then felt relieved and had a drink with everyone. When it was time to leave, he took Wu Song to the stable and immediately unloaded a large baggage for him and gave him some careful instructions.
When they returned to Master Li's room, Master Li had changed his clothes, looked at Cao Cao tenderly, and said calmly: "Lang Jun went on an expedition and fought hard. I heard that during the dinner just now, Master Li was worried. Fortunately, he came back unharmed."
Cao Cao smiled, put a baggage on the table, and untied it. There was a box inside. He opened it easily, and saw the treasure flow. Fang said softly: "Although there were some twists and turns, this expedition went smoothly and we gained a lot." I have looked carefully at the treasures, but this box of treasures is of the best quality. I specially left it for you. It can be used to make jewelry or to decorate your clothes. It can be used well and should be kept well."
Master Li looked at the treasures carefully and put them aside one by one. With an emotional expression on his face, he put his arms around Cao Cao and said, "How can all the priceless treasures compare to the lover in front of me?"
Both of them are of extremely high level, and they have a wonderful way of getting along with each other that is difficult for others to achieve.
As soon as the candlelight dimmed, the room was filled with spring light, and the fish and dragons danced all night, so there is no need to mention it.
On the other side, in Zong Yuner's room.
Zong Yun'er opened the door, looked at the sky first, and said slightly angrily: "It's so late, what are you doing in my room all of a sudden?"
Wu Song came in, put the baggage Cao Cao gave him on the table, opened it, and followed his brother's instructions, stammering: "I told my brother before that if you get something rare, be sure to leave the best one for me. , I have been taking care of you these days...You may need these things to make jewelry or decorate your clothes, so please keep them well."
After saying that, he opened the box and saw that the treasures were shining brilliantly, and none of them were extremely valuable. He was stunned for a moment: My brother is such a big deal, no wonder the women of Zhao Guan's family are willing to risk their lives to follow him.
Although Zong Yun'er came from an official position, her grandfather was incorruptible. How had he ever seen such wealth? Although she was shocked, she couldn't help but be moved. She was too embarrassed to take a closer look, so she just lowered her head and said, "Who am I? How can I collect so many treasures?"
According to Wu Song's nature, he would have inevitably said some nonsense at this moment, "We are all good brothers, just take it if I give it to you, why is it so unpleasant?" Fortunately, he has an older brother to proof it. At this moment, he was so blessed that he said sincerely: "Treasure No matter how good it is, it's nothing more than an external possession. Wu Er's life belongs to a girl, and it's just jewelry, so why can't I accept it?"
Zong Yun'er turned around and tried her best to suppress the urge to throw herself into his arms. She covered her heart with both hands and stammered: "Since you said that, then I have no choice but to accept it first. Okay, okay, it’s late at night, Brother Wu, please, please come back.”
"Okay, you should have a good rest early...sister." Wu Song boldly called out to her, turned around and walked away. After walking for more than ten steps, he suddenly jumped up, turned somersaults, and ran towards his residence.
Youfen teaches: Love is always easy to lose, young people should not waste their youth. Gold and white jade are not expensive enough, in exchange for the smile and anger of a beautiful woman.
