It was almost noon, and the food in the house had to be prepared for a while. Coupled with Li Shimin's "surprise attack", everyone in the Kong family secretly started to move...
In a small courtyard of Kong Mansion, Kong Lingyue was sitting in front of the window, laughing and joking with the little sisters next to her from time to time.
Kong Lingyue's maid Xiaoyu walked in from the door with sparrow steps.
He smiled and announced: "Miss, Mr. Tang is here today..."
Kong Lingyue was suddenly startled when she heard this and had not yet reacted.
The sister next to her quickly joked in a quirky way: "Oh? Sister Lingyue, it's Mr. Tang you've been thinking about day and night, here you are, why don't you go and see him?"
Fang Zhiyao's words made Kong Lingyue's little face suddenly turn a bright red, and then she hit her best friend with her jade hand angrily.
She blushed but whispered softly: "What do you think about day and night? You girl, don't talk nonsense..."
Fang Zhiyao gave a playful smile, like a swallow's voice, blinked her smart eyes, and then continued: "Sister Lingyue doesn't want him, so why do you collect all the poems of this Tang Gongzi who fishes for the snow in the cold river alone?" Have you written it again?"
On the side, the book desk is covered with rice paper, each of which is written with graceful and elegant calligraphy, and the contents are all poems written by Tang Sufan at the Qinghe Garden Poetry Meeting that day~
There are more than ten poems, and there are quite a few sentences. The signatures and names are all written by Tang Sufan~
Kong Lingyue blushed slightly: "I just think Mr. Tang's poems are good, so I would like to write them in my spare time... I just want to practice calligraphy..."
Fang Zhiyao smiled strangely, naturally she didn't believe it, stood up with her little hands behind her back, walked to the desk, picked up a piece of rice paper, and looked at it carefully.
Then he puffed up his little mouth, like a naughty flying swallow, and said slowly and interestingly: "When will the bright moon come? I asked the blue sky with my wine, I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky... I hope that we can share the beauty of the moon together for a long time." ………”
Then he said playfully: "What amazing poems! No wonder the reputation of this little poetry fairy has spread so quickly in the past two days. My father can't even write such poems! With such literary talent, no wonder Sister Lingyue I miss you so much, it turns out that a talented man matches a beautiful woman~"
Kong Lingyue was even more embarrassed by what her sister said, and she scolded in a whisper: "Zhiyao, if you keep talking nonsense, I... will ignore you~"
Seeing Kong Lingyue turned her head away, her face almost turning red, Fang Zhiyao stopped teasing and quickly came closer to ask. Kong Lingyue asked nicely.
"Sister Lingyue, what does Tang Sufan look like? It's a pity that I didn't go that day. I heard that this little poetry fairy is very handsome."
Kong Lingyue blushed slightly and was speechless for a moment. She, her sister, gossiped better than anyone else...
If I praise Mr. Tang’s appearance, I’m afraid this girl will talk nonsense even more~
Seeing that her young lady was a little embarrassed and couldn't speak, Xiaoyu on the side also helped and said: "Ms. Fang, Mr. Tang is indeed handsome~ and he is gentle and elegant, and his talents are extraordinary~"
"No wonder~"
After hearing this, Fang Zhiyao blinked playfully, and then quickly pulled Kong Lingyue: "Let's go, Sister Lingyue, take me to see what the little Shixian looks like?"
Kong Lingyue quickly took Fang Zhiyao's little hand, which was full of interest, and stopped her.
"You girl, my grandfather and the others are talking to some elders. We were too rude in the past..."
"I just took a look secretly~ We sisters have all heard of Tang Xiaoshixian's name~ But sister Lingyue, you know him and you didn't tell us, huh~"
Kong Lingyue could only explain in a gentle voice: "Then we can wait until my grandfather meets the guests before we go, or should we wait a little while?"
So Fang Zhiyao had no choice but to give up temporarily with a pout.
"Okay, okay, let's go see it later~"
Kong Lingyue saw the girl's unwilling expression and couldn't help but smile: "Girl, you have been out of shape all day, so be careful that you won't be able to get married in the future~"
After hearing this, Fang Zhiyao shook her little head like a rattle.
"Hey, who wants to get married? What's so good about those men? If I don't marry, I won't marry. The same goes for my father. He spends the whole day telling me which family has the best children of high-ranking officials, but they are all boring."
Kong Lingyue knew that although her little sister was a generation older than herself, her character was still like that of a little girl who had never experienced anything in the world.
"Isn't your father also doing it for your own good? Chang'an is not that simple. The fate of our women cannot be decided by ourselves..."
Fang Zhiyao held Kong Lingyue's hand and said softly: "Hey, sister Lingyue, I really envy you. Your old man is so kind to you~"
……………………
In the back courtyard of the Kong Mansion, Kong Yingda and Li Shimin pretended to chat for a few words, except for the initial words, what were their names and identities~
Seeing that these old men did not dislike Lao Li's status as a businessman, Tang Sufan didn't have to worry anymore...
Fortunately, Lao Li is up to par and can talk about anything without stage fright~
However, if Kong Yingda and others found out about this, they would probably complain with dark faces.
dislike! Do you dare to dislike it?
A few people chatted for a few rounds, and then the servants came over to inform them that the food and wine were ready in the main hall.
Several people went directly to the main hall of Kong Mansion.
When they arrived at the main hall, Kong Yingda said with a smile: "Tang Xiaolang, I'm sorry, most of us old men are from poor backgrounds, so we don't have that much attention to detail when we gather together. I didn't expect that Li Dong's family would also come today. Please bear with me... …”
Indeed, among these five people, except Wang Ji, the other four, even though Tang Jian was the grandson of Tang Yong, Zuopu She of the Northern Qi Dynasty, all had their families fall into decline and lived in poverty.
When Tang Sufan saw it, it turned out to be like this...
Before the Tang Dynasty, the meal sharing system was always used. As the old saying goes, "one person has one outstanding person", but in the Tang Dynasty, although the meal sharing system still existed, it was only for high-ranking families who paid attention to etiquette, or they had to pay attention to it during banquets.
Ordinary people do not share food in their homes.
The culture of sharing meals at the same table also emerged in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but each had its own particular emphasis.
Kong Yingda was not worried about Li Shimin, because Li Shimin was not particular about this aspect, and sometimes even ate at the same table with his confidant Hu Gu in private to enhance their relationship.
Tang Sufan smiled and joked: "Mr. Kong was joking, eating like this makes us feel intimate. I don't like to share food. I can't even touch the glasses when I drink. What's the point~"
Tang Jian listened and said happily: "Hahahaha, that's right, drinking like this will be more enjoyable~ Come on, come on, everyone, take a seat, I've been craving for Tang Boy's wine for two days~"
"Mr. Tang, I have brought two jars of wine for each of you today."
A few people took their seats, and Tang Jian was so happy that he raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Oh? So that wine is for us, not for Lao Kong alone~ Haha, it's so good!"
Although Li Shimin was smiling on the side, his heart was bleeding, you piece of shit! Give away several jars of wine! That’s all money!
This prodigal!
And you also give them as gifts, even if I want them, you won’t give them to me. Is that ridiculous?
No, I have to find this guy to trick him later, even if he uses the name of Guanyin Maid~
