So, Zhu Xiuyuan waved and sent dozens of bottles of Zhenjiu and Jade wine.

"Hiss..." Li Jiye took a sip of Zhenjiu, took a breath, and praised: "It is indeed the best wine in the world. It is indeed strong enough. It is even more powerful than the sorghum wine of Liangguo..."

On the other side, two sisters, Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu, joined forces to give Li Qingnu "Amway" jade wine.

Because the alcohol content of jade wine is not high, but it is very fragrant and very mellow, which is very suitable for women's taste.

"It's really good!" Li Qingnu took a small sip of the jade wine, a smile bloomed on his oval face, and his expression was very serious. While praising, he took small sips of the wine.

"Senior brother, how did you come up with the idea of ​​brewing these two kinds of wine?" Li Qingnu took a sip of wine and began to ask Zhu Xiuyuan about his "mental journey" in making wine.

So, in this flower hall, Zhu Xiuyuan explained to them why he thought of making wine? Why he made these two kinds of wine, etc.

Dong Shuzhen was very active and added that she had also participated in the wine-making process, such as choosing the name of the wine.

She and Zhu Xiuyuan formed a "husband and wife partner" to explain together, which actually complemented each other.

"Oh, by the way, senior brother, junior sister, and Shuyu, I came to Chen State this time and prepared gifts for you all!" After listening to Zhu Xiuyuan's "mental journey" about brewing wine, Li Qingnu finally remembered this matter.

After giving the order, dozens of large wooden boxes were soon carried into the flower hall.

Li Qingnu was very happy and greeted Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu. The three women plus some maids and maids were unpacking the boxes there with great interest, and they felt like they would be unpacking express packages in later generations.

Zhu Xiuyuan, Li Jiye, Dong Cheng and others were watching and chatting about their affairs.

"This is the cantaloupe, raisins, and stuffed grapes sent as tribute from the Western Regions..."

"This is also Hetian jade, mutton-fat jade, amber, agate..."

"These are the colored glaze products I selected from Hu merchants in the Western Regions, small items with Western characteristics, benzoin, wool textiles and leather goods..."

The girls were in high spirits and gathered around one big wooden box after another, as if they were not tired.

As Li Qingnu explained, she took out items one after another, which were either tributes from the Western Regions to the Liang Kingdom or rare items she purchased from Hu merchants in the Western Regions.

Dong Shuzhen, Dong Shuyu, and the four maids of spring, summer, autumn, and winter who were helping there screamed in surprise from time to time.

Especially Dong Shuzhen, her two big eyes were round and round, and the rare objects were full of the characteristics of the Western Regions. Such things were rare in Chen State.

"Finally, there are two extremely precious medicinal materials!" Li Qingnu suddenly became mysterious, "This is Tianshan Snow Lotus and this is Cistanche deserticola! These two medicinal materials were obtained after I begged my father for a long time. They are very precious!"

"Brother Li, Your Highness the Princess, this thing is precious. There is no effort to collect it. I don't dare to collect it..." Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hands repeatedly.

"Brother Zhu, it's rare for us brothers and sisters to come here once. It's just a small gift and disrespectful. Please don't refuse!"

After declining for a while, Zhu Xiuyuan finally accepted.

The cantaloupe, raisins, stuffed grapes, etc. are foods that cannot be stored for a long time, so everyone should divide them and eat them, and then chat and laugh, which is quite happy.

Unknowingly, the time has reached noon.

So everyone sat around a table in the flower hall and had a very sumptuous meal.

After the meal, everyone rested for a while, and Zhu Xiuyuan took Li Jiye to wander around the mansion, answering his various questions.

It’s almost like a master and a disciple!

As for Li Qingnu, she was completely mixed up with Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu. The three girls were chattering and running around, and Zhu Xiuyuan didn't even know what they were doing.

However, Dong Shuyu, who had always been taciturn, became a lot more lively, which was an unexpected surprise.

At some point, Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye were walking and chatting when they came to a pavilion.

Li Qingnu and the three Dong sisters were also among them. They seemed to be studying some poems.

Three girls gather together, Dong Shuzhen is lively and cute, Dong Shuyu is graceful and gentle, and Li Qingnu is amiable. Each of the three girls has their own characteristics.

But it's no surprise that they are all top-notch beauties.

When they came together, they saw fluttering skirts, slanted hair, jade beads shaking, and snow-like skin, crystal clear as jade. It turned out to be a rare "three beauties"... The surrounding light was like

It's all a lot brighter.

Zhu Xiuyuan approached, but the three women didn't realize it. He overheard something... Zhu Xiuyuan was a little stunned, because what they were studying were actually the ten love poems he had written to Dong Shuzhen.

Because that time at Huamanlou, Kou Wanwan behaved like a monster and held a poetry meeting. Zhu Xiuyuan participated in it and wrote a poem. The result was that Dong Shuzhen was dissatisfied. Later, Zhu Xiuyuan promised that after returning, he would write ten better poems for her.

's poetry.

Unexpectedly, after Li Qingnu arrived, Dong Shuzhen took out all of them and studied them with Dong Shuyu, Li Qingnu and the others...

Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye approached, and he seemed to hear that they seemed to have different opinions on certain descriptions in the poem, and they were trying to convince each other and couldn't argue.

"Madam, Shuyu, and Her Royal Highness the Princess, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me!"

Zhu Xiuyuan walked forward enthusiastically, ready to answer questions for the three women.

After all, he is the "author" of these ten poems. Whatever he says, it makes sense.

However, when the three girls saw Zhu Xiuyuan approaching, their conversation stopped and they all looked at him in horror.

Then, the three women screamed "Ah", holding poem manuscripts in their hands, taking small steps, holding up their skirts, and fled the pavilion in a panic!

In the blink of an eye, the three women ran away without a trace.

Only Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye were left, looking at each other in the pavilion.

Afterwards, Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye took a leisurely stroll while answering questions. Occasionally, they saw the three girls Dong Shuzhen, Dong Shuyu and Li Qingnu. They were playing shuttlecock for a while, swinging for a while, and sitting down to do it quietly for a while.

embroidery……

The day passed quickly in leisurely time.

Brother and sister Li Jiye and Li Qingnu had dinner at Uncle Jiangcheng's house and then set off to rush back to the inn where they were staying.

The capital is naturally no better than Jiangzhou, so they cannot live in the uncle's mansion.

It was always inconvenient to have so many pairs of eyes staring at them, so Li Jiye and Li Qingnu still had to go back to the inn where they were staying to rest.

A night of silence.

On the second day, Zhu Xiuyuan's mission was still to compensate Li Jiye and Li Qingnu for playing together.

This time, they came to the Qinhuai River and rented a large cruise boat. While rafting on the river, they sat on the bow of the boat to enjoy the scenery, drink and chat, which was completely comfortable.

However, Dong Shuyu did not go on this trip.

Because "Dong Yulou" was about to open, she still had some final preparations to do and couldn't spare any time.

Only Dong Shuzhen accompanied Li Qingnu.

Unknowingly, it was approaching noon. After having lunch in a restaurant by the Qinhuai River, everyone ended their tour and drove back home.

Don't you know that just as everyone walked to the gate of Jiangcheng's uncle's house, the gatekeeper suddenly came over with a smile, cupped his hands and said: "Master, madam, prince, princess, good news, great news!"

"What good news?"

"Sir, your and your wife's master, that is, the old beggar, is here. He is currently in the flower hall of the main house, and the great master is entertaining!"

"What! Master, the old man is here?!"

After being stunned for a moment, everyone was overjoyed and hurried to the flower hall of the main house to see the old beggar.

At this time, both Li Jiye and Li Qingnu were here, and everyone's master appeared again. This was really an unexpected surprise!

This old beggar is not only the master of Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuzhen, but also the master of Li Jiye and Li Qingnu. It is for this reason that Li Qingnu calls Zhu Xiuyuan "senior brother".

I think back when they were in Jiangzhou, it was precisely because of this relationship that the relationship between Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Jiye developed so rapidly.

This is one aspect.

In addition, for Zhu Xiuyuan, the sudden appearance of the old beggar had other benefits.

Yan Dashan's skills are still a little behind, and he should be able to improve them.

Well, my wife Dong Shuzhen’s skills can also be improved a bit...

As for him, Zhu Xiuyuan remembered that when he was chasing the two fighting women in Huamanlou, he had imagined that if he was very skilled, he could catch the two disobedient women and spank them on the table together...

…

Hehe, now is your chance!

Everyone had different thoughts, but they were all ecstatic at the sudden appearance of the old beggar, and they all rushed to the flower hall of the main house.

At this time, in the flower hall.

The huge round table was already filled with a large table of new dishes, and there were also several jars of pure wine and jade wine.

The old beggar has white hair and white beard, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and he is dressed in ragged clothes. Although he is dressed as a beggar, he is slightly stout.

At this moment, the old beggar was sitting at the big round table, holding a roast goose in his left hand, and holding a whole wine jar in his right hand. He took a bite from the left and a bite from the right, devouring it hungrily, and was very busy.

On the other side, Dong Cheng sat with them, but Dong Cheng couldn't get in the middle of the conversation because the old beggar was too busy.

He ate in a hurry, like a starving ghost reincarnated into a whirlwind.

The muscles on Dong Cheng's face could be seen trembling.

"Master!"

"Master!"

Suddenly, two women screamed in the flower hall, namely Dong Shuzhen and Li Qingnu.
