Chapter 572 Of course I care!(1/2)

I don't know how long Lin Yexing's family has been preparing for this big event. Just for the banquet, they invited chefs from several of the largest restaurants in the county to handle it.

There are eight people at a table, and there are eight meat and eight vegetables. Everything is flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water. Some of the ingredients are hard to see in the market, such as a kind of fish called Sancaiwei, which only has feet.

It is long and has three colors of tail. It has delicious meat and few spines. It is extremely difficult to catch. Professional fishermen may not be able to catch one in a day. Each fish is worth more than five taels of silver. Every table has one of these fish.

The dishes alone for this table cost more than twenty taels of silver, plus a jar of sapphire wine worth ten taels of silver.

Someone mentioned in the chat that a banquet like this at Lin Yexing's house would last for five days, so you can imagine how much money it would cost.

And in the past few days, whenever a beggar or passerby passes by, he can get food if he says congratulations...

Weddings, funerals, major life events, cost too much money. Of course, this depends on the family's conditions. As far as the Lin family is concerned, such a wedding is not going to break the bones.

His family is so willing to take care of things. Yunjing guesses that another reason is the Shen family. The Shen family has a great reputation in the north. It can be said that their daughter is married. If she doesn't look good, how will the other party see it?

It's hard to talk about things like human relations and sophistication. Many people just want to earn face. This is a family matter, and it's hard for outsiders to say anything about it.

After the banquet started, Yunjing and the others had a great time eating, drinking, and changing glasses, especially since friends who had been friends for many years finally got together. It was easy to reminisce about the past while chatting, and then they talked to each other about the embarrassing things that happened in the past, and who was married to the husband for what reason.

Punished, who was grabbed when he was a child, who fought with someone and was pushed to the ground and rubbed...

Memories of youth always make people extremely happy, but also a little sad. Time flies by so fast. In the blink of an eye, you have grown up, started a family and started a career, and you can never go back to the beginning.

The ones who have the most embarrassing stories are Wang Bolin and Zhou Jintai. Who made them "celebrities" in school? Zhou Jintai is greedy and dares to eat anything. He has been sent to the hospital countless times and is still alive today.

It’s really not easy. As for Wang Bolin, he went to check out the list out of curiosity. From then on, he got out of hand. There were so many students in the school, and Wang Bolin was the most junior uncle. Some of them are out-of-print collections. I don’t know how many people have contributed to their youth.

Sleepless nights.

Yunjing was also one of the focuses of discussion, but it was all relatively positive. Who made him so good at the beginning? Moreover, many of the childhood toys invented by Yunjing were also talked about. Some people still treasure them. They were all from the original

Precious memories from childhood.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, when the atmosphere was getting thicker, Lin Yexing, the real protagonist, came to ban alcohol. He was accompanied by two maids who were dedicated to serving and pouring wine, and he also brought three people who looked like wine masters to help block the drinking.

There was nothing he could do about it. If he didn't do this, there would be hundreds of people coming to his house, and Lin Yexing would have to lie down if each person couldn't reach half a glass of wine.

There must be particularities in who needs to drink in person and who should have others drink on their behalf. Yunjing and his colleagues, Lin Yexing, toasted in person.

"Brother Shou Xin, please drink this cup to the full. I apologize for the poor hospitality, please." Lin Yexing picked up the wine glass and said to Yun Jing with a slightly red face.

Yunjing stood up and said: "Brother Qingzhu, you are polite, don't worry about us, you are busy with your business, congratulations again, please"

After having a drink together, Lin Yexing apologized, then went to toast Wang Bolin and the others. After the table, he apologized again and went elsewhere.

Getting married is a great joy, but only those who have been married know how sad those days are. They are busy greeting guests and don't even have time to sleep peacefully. This is still a lot of things for a wealthy family like Lin Yexing.

There are servants taking care of it, well, having said that, it is difficult for poor families to feed and clothe themselves, so they probably don’t have such troubles.

As long as you can't afford a wife, you don't have to suffer the fatigue of the first few days of marriage...

After Lin Yexing finished his toast and went elsewhere, Yunjing also apologized to his tablemates, then got up and went to toast some people. It wasn't that he wanted to overshadow the guests, but it was just that on such occasions, some familiar people and elders always wanted to fight.

Those who greeted me, such as the county magistrate, some of my teachers and classmates in the same year.

Yunjing went to toast the county magistrate first. In fact, it didn't matter if he didn't go, but etiquette still had to be observed. When Yunjing was admitted to Tongsheng, the county magistrate was considered his teacher after the thank-you banquet, so it was only right to toast him.

of.

There is no need for everyone to toast, and very few toast alone. Occasionally, a glass of wine is enough for one table. After this circle, Yunjing drank ten or twenty glasses, and it started to drizzle.

Humanity is sophistication, but in fact it means nothing. No one will say anything if you don’t act like this. What’s great is that you are just a little aloof and unsociable...

How many people can truly be humane?

Zhou Jintai, Wang Bolin and the others were also carried around to toast like Yunjing. One of them wanted to drink in the county, and the other was still studying hard. If we don't seize this opportunity to get to know a few more people, so many years of studying will be wasted.

Read in vain.

After a lot of work, they sat together again, and the next step was to eat, drink, and get along peacefully.

When we were having dinner, a stage was set up next to the yard, and there was a troupe singing music to entertain us. It was a very famous local troupe, and there were several actors who were invited by the Lin family.

Zhou Jintai concentrated on the food and his mouth was full of oil. He just liked this one.

Wang Bolin was already tipsy. He held the wine glass and patted Yun Jing's shoulder. He pursed his lips toward the stage and said, "A Jing, look over there. What do you think of the girl singing the ditty now? She has a good figure, especially

It's that voice, gentle, soft, hissing, it makes my heart itch to hear it, if her voice makes that kind of sound, she will die."

After looking at the girl on the stage, she was probably around fifteen or sixteen years old. She was pretty, like Xiaojiabiyu, and had a very distinctive voice.

Yunjing was speechless and secretly thought that Wang Bolin was hopeless. Three sentences cannot be separated from women. The little lecher at the beginning has become an old lecher.

"Linzi, don't you have an idea? Can you please take it easy? I heard that you already have five concubines at home. You are still young, and your body is so well-conditioned that you don't think about your future?" Yunjing looked at him and said tangledly.

Wang Bolin shrugged and said, "But this is my hobby. I make money just for my own happiness. Besides, I'm not the kind of person who refuses to admit his debt when he lifts his pants. I have married all those girls who have followed me."

"I'm too lazy to tell you about this kind of thing. You, even if you don't like it, I wouldn't be surprised if you die on a woman's belly one day." Yun Jing shook his head and said.

Wang Bolin said indifferently: "How can I? I still take good care of my waist. By the way, A Jing, you said I would redeem the body of the girl singing on the stage and take it home. Do you think there is a chance?"

"Don't ask me about this kind of thing, you can figure it out yourself." Yunjing didn't want to talk to him.

Wang Bolin suddenly felt bored. He looked at the stage and didn't know what he was thinking about. With a hobby like his, once he gets his mind set on it, he can't let it go until he tries it. It's not necessarily that he has to achieve a certain goal. The process is also a different kind of thing.

Such a life experience.

This is just a personal hobby, it has nothing to do with good or evil. If someone does something evil because of his personal hobby, Yunjing will not treat such a person even if they have been with him for many years. Fortunately, Wang Bolin still has a bottom line, and there is no such thing as having to do anything.

Ruined thoughts.

Suddenly thinking of something, Yunjing asked Zhou Jintai, who was dealing with a roast suckling pig: "Fat man, how is the business of those pills you made back then?"

Zhou Jintai was greedy at first and tried to make alchemy by himself for a period of time. He actually came up with a prescription for aphrodisiac. Later he said that he would use it to make a fortune. Yun Jing still doesn't know what happened now, so he asked this question.

Zhou Jintai was not interested in women. Hearing this, he raised his head and said, "Ah Jing, why do you care about this? Come to think of it, that thing is very popular and often sold out. In terms of business, Lin Zi and I are partners. He

Anyway, I can get at least ten thousand taels of silver every month."

Good guy, you were messing around and you got a gold mine out of it.

However, this is a fact. There is no shortage of market for aphrodisiac drugs. Not to mention other things, once a certain animal is labeled as aphrodisiac, its price will skyrocket and it will be eaten as a protected animal.

"What's up, Ah Jing, do you need it? Tell me how much you want. I always have it. It's free of charge and I'll give it to you." Wang Bolin said directly back.

Yunjing looked at him sideways and said, "Why do you think I need that kind of thing?"

"Don't you need it?" Wang Bolin looked at Yun Jing with a half-smile.

With eyes wide open, Yunjing said, "Do I need it?"

"Who knows, I heard a few days ago that a certain guy had a pale face and dark circles under his eyes. He walked with his hands on his waist. Young man, you should be more restrained when you have a beautiful concubine in your arms." Wang Bolin said in a strange tone.

The corner of his mouth twitched, Yun Jing narrowed his eyes and said, "Who did you listen to, Lin Zi?"

At this time, Yunjing felt that he wanted to kill him or something!

No, how did the news about being squeezed by Bai Zhi get out a few days ago? Isn't this too ridiculous? Is there a mole around?

"I'm Cao? Is this really happening?" Wang Bolin immediately became interested, and he even broke out the catchphrase he learned from Yun Jing.

Yunjing: "..."

In terms of feelings, this guy was 'framing up', and then he got it wrong.

"I don't know what you are talking about," Yunjing curled his lips and said, refusing to admit it to death.

Wang Bolin said reluctantly: "No, there's definitely something going on. A Jing, just tell me..."

What does it mean to harm a friend? This is it. When you find out that your friend is doing something embarrassing, you won’t let him go and you want to get to the bottom of it.

Zhou Jintai scoffed at this. He was not interested in anything related to women. Women would only affect the speed of his eating.

While we were eating, drinking, chatting and spanking, the sky turned dark, the red lanterns were lit, and the entire Lin Mansion fell into a lively and cheerful atmosphere.

Lin Yexing finished his work and came over to Yunjing's table. He was about the same age and had been friends for many years. Then he suffered a disaster. Yunjing and others congratulated and toasted him one by one. Good guy, he almost threw up.

, everyone stipulated that no method should be used to relieve a hangover. Who could resist this? In the end, Lin Yexing begged for mercy.

Su Xiaoye on the other side felt very bored. Although she got along well with the people at the same table, she just found it boring, especially when a few married ladies occasionally said some dirty jokes that she couldn't understand at all.

As the owner of this place, Lin Xingyu occasionally greeted guests, but most of them stayed with Su Xiaoye, always observing her every move. Seeing that Su Xiaoye was bored, she asked: "Miss Su, are you tired?"

"I'm a little sleepy." Su Xiaoye simply followed her words and pretended to yawn. There was nothing she could do about it. The people present were either ladies from famous families or from well-educated families, and again they were ladies from wealthy families. The topic she was talking about was completely different.

Can't blend in.

Hearing this, Lin Xingyu smiled and said: "In that case, why not go and rest first? I have already arranged a place for you."

"Wouldn't this be bad?" Su Xiaoye looked at the others and said, even though she didn't understand the so-called etiquette very well, she also knew that it would be bad to leave before everyone left the table.

Unexpectedly, everyone present expressed their understanding and said that if Su Xiaoye was tired, he could go to rest and don't worry about them. The reason for this was that they were not familiar with each other. Besides, Su Xiaoye was Yun Jing's fiancée. Who would look at her face?

Ah, if Yunjing is offended and unhappy, the whole family will suffer!

Although Yun Jing is now a commoner, his master is a powerful feudal official. As Yun Jing's fiancée, who dares to offend Su Xiaoye?

"It's okay, you see, everyone understands, Miss Su, come with me, I will take you there myself." Lin Xingyu stood up and said with a smile, not afraid that Su Xiaoye had made arrangements and she felt inexplicably uneasy...

Then Su Xiaoye stopped worrying so much and left with Lin Xingyu.

Although Su Xiaoye didn't understand many things at all, she also understood that she couldn't live with Yunjing when she was a guest in another house. And as she grew up, she also understood that she couldn't live together in another place. However, she always felt empty and uncomfortable in a place she was unfamiliar with.

When going to the residence, Su Xiaoye asked: "Miss Lin, where is Brother Jing?"
