After a lot of busy work with Yue'er in the courtyard, they finally settled Mei Jingjing and comforted Yue'er.
After explaining to Liu Qiang a few times again and asking Liu Qiang to look after the home and nursery, he changed into a more simple outfit and walked towards the Fuman Building where the party was held tonight.
As the saying goes, Buddha relies on gold and people rely on clothes.
After Xu Yunyan changed into a simpler outfit, no one could connect him with a high-ranking official.
At most, he is a child of an ordinary family.
As soon as Xu Yunyan walked out of the gate, several guards were about to follow. They had good intentions, but Xu Yunyan waved his hand to stop them.
"You don't need to follow me. I'm going out to attend a banquet, and I have to ask a few people to keep watch here. I'm a little worried if I'm not here. Please."
As Xu Yunyan said this, the soldiers did not feel unhappy about not being able to have a big meal. Instead, they nodded with fists clasped.
"Don't worry, General, I'll see to it properly."
Xu Yunyan looked at them and couldn't help but smile, and took out a silver lump again and threw it to them.
"These Qian brothers will just buy something good for one night, and I won't take you to have a big meal. I feel a little sorry, so I can only let you find a way to eat on your own."
"General, look at what you said. You have already given us so much money. Why are you doing this? General, please take it back quickly. We don't dare to take any more money from the general."
The little boss quickly stepped forward and handed the silver in his hand to Xu Yunyan, but Xu Yunyan shook his head.
"You're worrying too much. Since you have this affection, just accept it. By the way, you still don't know what your brother's name is?"
Xu Yunyan changed the topic again and asked the name of the soldier guarding his gate in front of him, and the soldier hurriedly said to Xu Yunyan.
"Little Zhang Liang, these are Ding Xiu, Ding Shen, Ding Yang and Ding Xing."
After Zhang Liang said this, Xu Yunyan laughed.
"Are you four brothers?"
"General, the four of us are brothers."
"No wonder the name can be combined into one sentence, cultivating one's moral character."
After Xu Yunyan said this, he said weakly again.
"It's just that you and the others are brothers. Why do you look a little different?"
Xu Yunyan's words seemed half-joking, but the people he mentioned were extremely depressed here.
"General, we used to stutter more and stutter less, which made us look different in height, short, fat, and thin."
Xu Yunyan watched them talk about his miserable childhood, and couldn't help but ask them.
"Have all your brothers gotten married? I wonder how your family is doing?"
When Xu Yunyan asked, these people who should be old enough to take over your hands shook their heads hastily.
The scene fell silent again. Zhang Liang said helplessly here, "Except for the eldest Ding Xiu who is married, the remaining three brothers have not yet been married. They also became soldiers in order to earn a living. In the past, the older generation of soldiers Too many died on the battlefield, so I had no choice but to replace four of them."
Zhang Liang's words made Xu Yunyan feel a little depressed, "They are all heroes who are loyal to the country, but their lives are so difficult. Only one of them is married, and the others are not yet married."
But don't worry, as long as I'm here I can't arrange your marriage for you, but I can prepare enough money for you. "
When Xu Yunyan said this, these people hurriedly knelt down in front of Xu Yunyan.
"Thank you for your kindness, General. I'll be sure to survive until I die."
Xu Yunyan was overjoyed when he heard these people speaking words of loyalty.
"Okay, okay, I feel relieved after you said this. Then you have to accept this money. For no other reason than for your future wives, you also have to have some wifely money, right?"
Xu Yunyan laughed and walked forward after leaving these joking words. After he left, the four Ding brothers and Zhang Liang behind him did look at each other.
"In the future, we must keep the general in peace no matter what. Although we may not need to take action in many cases, anyone who wants to target the general must first step on our corpses."
Dressed in ordinary people's clothes, he was walking on the streets of Qiongzhou City like an ordinary person.
As evening approaches, many people in Qiongzhou, who have worked hard all day, have returned to their homes, have eaten or are cooking.
Those who had nothing to do gathered in groups in front of their homes to discuss some matters or chatted from all over the world.
Looking at their smiling faces, Xu Yunyan was very happy.
After walking and walking, we soon arrived at the gate of Fuman Building in Qiongzhou City where Xu Yunyan had decided to hold a cocktail party tonight.
Just looking at the corner outside Fuman Building, where several young figures squatted with a broken bowl, I couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.
He quickly walked up to them, and these children, who were holding broken bowls and waiting for charity from others, raised their heads and looked at a man in ordinary clothes, and their originally hopeful eyes dimmed again.
Although he lowered his head, he still stared at his bowl without leaving.
Xu Yunyan looked at them and couldn't help but ask.
"How old are you and where are your parents? Why are you begging here?"
After Xu Yunyan said these words, these children ignored him.
Seeing this, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but shook his head, took out a few copper coins from his arms and put them in their bowls.
"Let's go over there and buy some food."
After saying this, Xu Yunyan sighed and continued walking towards the main entrance of Fuman Building.
And his scene was also seen by some people at the door of Fumanlou, and they were pointing at him.
However, Xu Yunyan did not say anything about this, and the children behind him were like blind puppets. They neither thanked Xu Yunyan nor collected the copper coins in the bowl, but just let the coins sit in the bowl.
Even if Xu Yunyan did such a trivial good deed, when he walked to the door of Fumanlou and wanted to go in, he was stopped by the waiter at the door of Fumanlou.
"Go, what are you doing? You are dressed like this and you dare to enter Fuman Building. Do you think anyone can enter Fuman Building if they want to? Don't think that just because you gave those children a few coins, you think I I will let you into Fuman Tower."
Xu Yunyan looked at him and was very curious, "Isn't this Fumanlou holding a cocktail party tonight? Why can't I go in?"
Xu Yunyan wanted to go in, but the child refused to let him go.
"You are quite well informed. Where did this ignorant man come from? Are you able to attend the cultural gathering held here? Let me tell you, this is a cultural gathering held by the Imperial Envoy. If you want to go in, eat and drink. Don’t look in the mirror, what do you look like?”
Listening to the waiter using a local accent to blame himself, Xu Yunyan spoke to him in an easy-going manner.
"Doesn't my northern accent still indicate my identity?"
“What does a Northland accent indicate about one’s identity?
As soon as I heard that the imperial envoy from the North had come to hold a cocktail party here, all the prominent people in Qiongzhou City and the businessmen from the North rushed over.
But where did you come from, and you still want to pretend to be someone with status and status? Even if I had status and status, I wouldn't wear clothes like yours. "
Xu Yunyan became amused when he heard this.
"It's interesting, it's really interesting. I didn't expect that you would still look down on others here. If I had known this, I wouldn't have chosen your Fuman Building for the banquet. It really makes me angry!"
Xu Yunyan was very irritable when he saw the doorman here, but before Xu Yunyan could argue with them much, before the doorman could get angry, several more people came to the door.
This was none other than the Qiongzhou governor and several of his deputies dressed in casual clothes. When this person arrived, although he was also dressed in simple civilian clothes, the waiter in the shop hurriedly greeted him.
"Master Governor, Master Sima, Master Changshi, you are here, please come in quickly."
However, these three people did not come in immediately. Instead, they fisted Xu Yunyan, who was standing there without moving.
"General Li, I didn't expect you to come first. Please go first."
This suddenly frightened the doorman.
"This man is a general? And he was asked to be invited by the governor. Is this a higher official than the governor? Is this the imperial envoy?"
Thinking of this, the waiter in the shop was instantly frightened. He looked at Xu Yunyan tremblingly, but Xu Yunyan didn't say anything to him. He just walked up and passed him and patted his shoulder.
"Be kinder to people in the future and don't drive others away casually. Maybe you can't afford to offend him because of his status."
After leaving these words, he walked into the hall in style.
