The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 230 Chapter 210

When the two returned home, Duan Yanqing and Liu Caihua hurried over after seeing each other. Duan Yanqing took Duan Changsheng's hand and asked, "Changsheng? How is this matter going? Tell daddy quickly."

Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Father, what is there to talk about? Ah Hua's brother said that he had to wait for his parents to come before discussing the marriage."

"Then how long will it take for his parents to arrive? Daddy and I can't wait."

"Then who knows? I've never been out, so who knows how far Yangzhou is from us?"

Duan Yanqing looked at Duan Wuji.

"Wuji, do you know how far Yangzhou is from us?"

Duan Wuji also shook his head.

"Father, I've never been to Yangzhou Mansion, and I don't know exactly how far it is, but it's far enough anyway, I guess it will take ten or twenty days.

Dad, don't worry, as the saying goes: go to the banquet soon, and in-laws later, why are you so anxious about this matter?

Ten days and 20 days, isn't it coming in the blink of an eye? "

"Well, you are talking about such a gift, there is no other way, then we have to wait.

Well, just in time, while I'm free these two days, I'm going to buy some things from that Duanjiaji, and I happen to hold a few banquets for everyone, so as to strengthen our family's style. "

When Liu Caihua heard this, she hurriedly said to Duan Yanqing: "Master, when do you think I will take the two children to their grandma's house?"

"Hey, head of the family, why are you in a hurry, no matter how anxious you are, you have to wait for Wuji's celebration wine to talk about it.

Damn it, don't you think so? "

"What did I say? Dad, you can arrange it. I will listen to you. Are you the head of the family?"

"I am the head of the family? I think the head of the family is just a showman. Don't we discuss all important matters as a family?"

At this moment, the iron ox rode a horse and broke in suddenly. The iron ox came to the yard and got off the horse. First, he ran over to greet Duan Wuji's parents.

"Little nephew Duan Tieniu pays his respects to uncle and aunt, everything is going well recently?"

"Tie Niu, get up quickly, what's the matter?"

"Back to my uncle and aunt, my parents plan to hold a grand banquet tomorrow to celebrate our successful business and earn a lot of money.

Secondly, to congratulate me for successfully becoming the head of the banner this time. Our family has been ordinary people for many years. Where has anyone become an official?

I was able to become the flag leader this time, isn't it all because of my brother's glory.I know this better than anyone else, don't follow my brother, want to be an official?Go dreaming.

Uncle and aunt, hurry up tomorrow morning, your family will have to go there!I'm not happy if I miss any of you. "

Well, this Tieniu can talk quite well today, and Xiaozui can't stop talking.

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Okay, Tieniu and his family were left behind this time, it's really unexpected!

Well, well then, Tieniu, our family will definitely be there tomorrow morning, uncle, let me celebrate for you. "

Tie Niu grinned.

"Uncle, if your family doesn't leave people, why do you think our family is celebrating?

Let's make it clear, uncle, our family is holding a banquet this time to thank your family!Without the hard work and help of your family, would our family be where we are today?
That's impossible, right?
This is called drinking water without forgetting the well digger! "

Duan Yanqing laughed after hearing this: "Tie Niu, aren't you pretty good at talking? That's fine, don't leave today, go there after dinner here tonight."

Tie Niu shook his head with a smile.

"Oh, uncle, that can't be done! You old man doesn't know, I'm busy today, I have to go door-to-door to notify, it won't work if there are no families.

Uncle, please be busy, I won't bother you here today, there are still a few I haven't notified yet.

Then I will go back first. "

After finishing speaking, the Iron Bull got on his horse and went back immediately.

Duan Yanqing looked at Tie Niu's back and said to the family: "Look at what a good boy this Tie Niu is! In the future, this child will definitely achieve great things and live a long life. From now on, you and this child should walk around more, listen clearly. ?"

Duan Changsheng responded with a smile.

"Yes, Daddy. I remember, baby."

Duan Yanqing looked at Duan Changsheng and said: "Come tomorrow, bring some money and buy some things by the way, our house will have a banquet the day after tomorrow, so our house will be lively."

Duan Changsheng nodded.

"Father, I know. Don't worry about this matter. It's up to me."

In the morning of the next day, Duan Yanqing led Duan Changsheng and Duan Wuji to put on new clothes and left early. They walked into Tie Niu's house to have a look, ho!I saw that Tie Niu's house was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the people coming and going were very lively.

Duan Wuji smiled and said to his father: "Father, look, this scene is even more lively than that of marrying a married woman. I really didn't expect it!"

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "How do you know? Marriage is called a small Dengke, and becoming an official is a big Dengke.

There are four happy events in life, sweet rains after a long drought, old acquaintances in a foreign land, wedding night in the bridal chamber, and the time of being named on the gold list.

Do you know why this gold list is nominated last?Because it is the most important, you can become an official if you get a title on the gold list. It can be seen that this is a major change in life!

Wuji, your kid has also passed the exam now, dad congratulates you. "

Duan Wuji grimaced upon hearing this.

"Daddy, why didn't I feel that?"

"Didn't you feel it? You will gradually realize it in the future."

When Tie Niu's father saw Duan Yanqing and his two sons coming, he quickly ran over with Tie Niu's mother.

"Brother, you are here, sit down quickly, come on, come on, sit down and drink tea first."

Well, let's not mention the enthusiasm of this Tieniu's parents.

Not long ago, Duan Yingchun brought their family over, and the yard became lively immediately.

Duan Wuji saw it, ho!There were quite a lot of people from the third grandfather's house, almost all men, women and children came here, and there were about twenty people.

Duan Changqing, Duan Changhong, and Duan Changhao were also sitting among the crowd.

Then four or five groups of people came, and each group had four or five fewer people and more than a dozen people.

When Tieniu's father saw that everyone had arrived, he immediately cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, please be quiet, let me say a few words today.

All the people present are either relatives of my family, good friends of my family, or my family members.

I invited everyone here today, not for other reasons. My boy Niu Tie has been successful in the past two years, and he has earned a lot of money with his brother in the past two years.

As for me, first of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my elder brother's family. Without their help, there would be nothing in our family.

Going out this time, my son Tieniu has finally become an official, and got a fourth-rank banner chief. This official is said to be a county magistrate who is still an official. Today I invite everyone to celebrate.

Everyone must eat and drink enough, no one is polite.

Come, let's set up the table immediately. "

The waiters in the restaurant who had been waiting by the side of the yard heard this and acted immediately. In a short while, eight tables of banquets were set up.

Duan Wuji looked at it, hey, isn't this feast quite sumptuous, there are many kinds of chicken, duck and fish, such as red stuffed elbow, yellow stuffed chicken, steamed carp, oily prawns, fried fungus with meat, steamed meatballs and so on.

The three members of Duan Yanqing's family and Tieniu's family sat at the same table, Duan Wuji didn't care about other things, just picked up the chopsticks and ate like crazy, Tieniu was up to him today, let's see who eats faster between the two.

Duan Yanqing was speechless for a while, hey, these two snacks are still in high spirits today, the more they eat, the more they enjoy themselves.

After the meal was almost finished, the waiter in the restaurant turned the tables again, and when he was full, Duan Yanqing stood up and walked to Duan Yingchun and said, "Second Uncle, bring someone to my house the day after tomorrow. My house is the day after tomorrow. Treat me too."

Duan Yingchun laughed when he heard this.

"Yanqing, it's time for your family to treat you, who doesn't know that Wuji made a lot of money from this horse sale!

To be honest, Second Uncle, I have long wanted to eat you. "

Duan Yanqing smiled.

"Isn't that hard to say? Second uncle. I'll send invitations to your house tomorrow afternoon."

"Hey, what invitation do you want to send? Just let us know, can't we just know? It's okay, it's okay, don't bother with that."

Duan Yanqingniu turned around and said to Tieniu's family: "Your family must also go there."

"Okay, okay, that's for sure."
