Chapter 694
"Oh, are you sore?!" Wei Jingyao got up and walked over, pointed at Tang Heng and said, "Tang Heng, my cousin is older than you and me, so you can call me Big Brother from now on."

"This..." Tang Heng looked at Shao Juncong with a hesitant smile.

Shao Juncong smiled indifferently: "It counts as I am one year older, as long as Young General Tang doesn't think I take advantage of you."

"Where can it be! Tang Heng can't ask for it." Tang Heng smiled and cupped his fists at Shao Juncong, and called happily: "Brother."

The three of them laughed heartily, Wei Jingyao turned around and said, "Sit down, why do you have to stand up and talk. Tang Heng, try this tea, I think it tastes better than those tribute teas, and I don't know about this tea. Where did my master get such fragrant tea?"

"Really? It must be a good thing that can be praised so much by the son of the world." Tang Heng took the fragrant tea from the boy with a smile, opened the tureen and smelled it, and said with a smile: "Well, it's quite fragrant—— But it can't be compared to His Majesty's tribute tea, right?" After speaking, he took a big sip, and Fang frowned again, "This tea cup is too small, it's not enough to drink! Hey, boy, have another bowl."

Wei Jingyao watched Tang Heng tasting tea like a cow chewing peonies, so he shook his head helplessly, and told the boy, "Change a big bowl for Major General Tang."

The little boy in charge of the tea hurriedly agreed and turned around. After a while, he really took an ice-cracked kiln covered bowl and handed it to Tang Heng. Tang Heng took it with a smile and looked at the blue-glazed ice on the tea cup. Crack smiled and said, "This tea bowl is not bad."

Wei Jingyao turned his head and asked Shao Juncong: "Brother, do you want to change the bowl too?"

"I don't need it anymore." Shao Juncong shook his head. Although he led the army on the frontier, he was at most half a rough man. Chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and hops are things to play with and lose one's mind. It's all for women to learn, but boys and girls never touch them since they were young.That's why Tang Heng likes to use a big bowl for drinking tea. If you talk to him about leading soldiers and fighting, he can tell you that you won't be sleepy for three days and three nights, but if you talk about tea ceremony with him, he can fall asleep in just a moment.

Shao Juncong thought to himself that if he hadn't looked at the bumpkins pitifully and wanted him to open his eyes to know what is delicious in the world, he wouldn't invite people here.

Before serving, there are four pastries as usual: hibiscus cake, gold silk cake, mung bean cake, lotus leaf cake.

Shao Juncong looked at the delicate hibiscus cake on the plate, raised his hand and said, "Come on, have a taste. It tastes pretty good."

"Really?" Wei Jingyao picked up the emerald lotus leaf cake and asked: "This style is fresh, how does it taste?" After taking a small bite, he couldn't help but admire: "Oh! It's delicious .”

"Delicious?" Seeing Wei Jingyao's intoxicated appearance, Tang Heng reached out and took a handful of lotus leaf cakes, put them in his mouth, chewed them randomly, and swallowed them. He sighed, "It's delicious." , squeezed another one and threw it into his mouth.

Looking at Tang Heng's appearance, Shao Juncong couldn't help laughing when he thought of how stupid he was when he ate Yan Wenzhen's cake for the first time.

"Slow down!" Wei Jingyao looked at the neatly stacked eight lotus leaf cakes on the plate, six of which went into Tang Heng's stomach, and couldn't help but persuade, "Eating too fast is not good for your health."

"No wonder! I've been eating like this since I was a child. See how healthy I am? The messy rules taught by your old masters are all to restrain you nobles. If it's like this on the battlefield, ten lives are not enough to lose .” Tang Heng ate and talked at the same time, without any delay.

Shao Juncong calmly took two pieces of mung bean cake, threw one into his mouth and pinched the other in his hand: "There will be more delicious ones later, so you'd better keep some in your stomach."

"Didn't you pack that plate?" Tang Heng put another piece of golden pastry into his mouth, and immediately nodded in satisfaction, "This is still delicious! I like salty snacks! Hey, ask them Do you have two boxes for me when you leave?"

"It's really hard to say." Shao Juncong shook his head and said.

"Isn't it?" Tang Heng looked at Shao Juncong in surprise, thinking that this person doesn't seem like the kind of exaggerated person!Isn't it just two boxes of snacks?It's not two boxes of gold, so why are you so stingy?

"Yes." Shao Juncong nodded, indicating that he was not lying.

"Hmph." Tang Heng sneered softly, expressing his complete disbelief.

After a while, the dishes came up one by one: a whole stewed goose, served with stewed peanuts, stewed chicken feet and other four small dishes of stewed meat, Tang Heng couldn't help but feel uncomfortable: "How about it? eat?"

Shao Juncong also picked up his chopsticks and greeted Wei Jingyao: "Come on, let's start."

So the three of them took their chopsticks and started to attack their favorite food.

In the kitchen, Yan Wenzhen, who had finally finished her work, watched the dishes being put into the food box, sighed, chopped the kitchen knife in her hand on the cutting board, and turned to wash her hands.

"Girl, are you exhausted? Have a sip of tea." Cardamom handed a cup of tea from the side.

Yan Wenzhen threw the snow-white towel into the copper basin, took a sip of tea from another hand, and Fang asked, "Have the people from Huanyuexuan left?"

Cardamom shook her head lightly, with a helpless expression on her face.

Yan Wenzhen put the teacup aside, raised his hand, tore off the Baotou and threw it into Cardamom's arms, saying, "Tell the wet nurse and Brother Chenghe to deal with it carefully, I'll go back to my room first."

"Girl!" Dou Kou hurriedly reminded, "Little General Shao is also here tonight, and one of his friends said he wanted two boxes of snacks to take away."

Yan Wenzhen said nonchalantly: "It's not a big deal, just let Third Martial Uncle take care of it. General Shao is a military commander, and his friends are all bold people. If there is something, just pretend to be a jar for them. Anyway. They have never treated us badly in terms of money."

"Okay, servant girl knows." Dou Kou hurriedly agreed, and stepped forward to take off the apron on Yan Wenzhen's body.

Yan Wenzhen took another sip of the half cup of tea that he had just drank, and Fang greeted Xu Xichen. As soon as he left the kitchen door, he was stopped by Xu Chenghe who came in a hurry. "Girl! Girl! It's not good. Young General Tang met Master Shao. For some reason, the two of them didn't finish their sentence. Then Young General Tang raised his arm and slapped Master Shao. What do you mean... "

"Who is Young General Tang?" Yan Wenzhen asked puzzled.

"Young General Tang is the guest that Young General Shao invited tonight. Oh, by the way, Young General Shao invited two guests tonight. One is Young General Tang Heng, and the other, although young, is extravagant." It's compelling, I can't guess the origin of this master."

"Why did they fight?" Cardamom asked anxiously.

"How do I know? According to the boys, they started arguing in the clean room. It seems that Master Shao accidentally urinated on General Tang's boots. He admitted his mistake and cursed at him. General Tang gave him a punch... ..." Xu Chenghe stomped his feet anxiously, "Oh, anyway, this matter can't be resolved now! Girl, why don't we report it to the officials first, and let Jingzhao Prefecture Yin handle this matter, how about it?"
