"Eat and drink well? What kind of bullshit is this? How could I say such embarrassing words? Eat and drink well, so why don't we send him on the road next time!"

"Lu Zijing, Lu Zijing, where's your usual carefree look? Why do you start to panic at such a time? This is not your character!"

"Didn't the person on the other side just look at you with sharper eyes, stare back!!!"

Howling secretly in his heart, Lu Su took two deep breaths suddenly, and then gradually calmed down the fear in his heart.

Although I don't want to admit it, this is the same as the gap between a child and an adult. No matter how reckless he is in forming gangs, in front of "adults", he is still a teenager, a bit lethargic. Do not open hands and feet.

Not to mention that when he appeared here today, he must know the identity of the person in front of him. He came here with the mentality of looking for a job, which made Lu Su feel even more pressure.

I saw a pair of big hands gradually clenched, and then gradually loosened.

Accompanied by the sound of heavy breathing, after Lu Su went back and forth several times, he finally felt calmer.

"Hehe, sir, come and sit here."

Trying to maintain his persona as a scholar, Lu Su smiled faintly, and then said to Zhang Yan.

It's just that his side has calmed down. Zhang Yan looked at his "angry" and even muscled appearance, but he couldn't calm down for a long time, and even subconsciously took two steps away from the other party.

……

"Ah? Eat and drink... You won't want Bangbang to send me away with two punches, what kind of Qin and Han funeral service..."

"And you talk when you talk, talk when you chat, don't be impatient! You clenched your fists and panted heavily, aren't you a bit too aggressive?

His eyebrows twitched twice, Zhang Yan waited for a while, and after seeing that the other party had no attack intentions, he thanked him in a low voice, and sat down near the table beside him.

"Thank you... thank you."

After sipping the breakfast on the table, Zhang Yan glanced around, and then turned his gaze back to the man on the opposite side.

To be honest, he felt something was wrong just now.Whether it was the behavior of the other party arranging breakfast for him today, or the attitude of the strong man opposite him, Zhang Yan felt a little weird.

If you have to say it, it is probably too stiff and too deliberate.

Although the other party's act of inviting him to have breakfast seems very casual, this large table of scones, porridge, pickles and other things is definitely not a common meal for a farmer. If the other party did not deliberately prepare it, then he There must be 1 unbelievers.

Not to mention that a boiled egg was thoughtfully put in his bowl just now.

This is an egg!

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, one egg could be exchanged for at least three or four pieces of five baht coins.Although this amount of money does not seem to be much, it can buy a bucket of grain no matter what, which is enough for a farming family to eat for a day or even a few days.

In this era when food is more expensive than life, not all chicken farmers are willing to eat such a luxury, so the other party is either not an ordinary farmer at all, or this meal is specially prepared for themselves.

After going through the hard struggle with the environment last night, Zhang Yan was quite sure that the other party's identity was nothing more than an ordinary old farmer.There is no doubt that today's breakfast was deliberately prepared by the other party...

Then why would the other party prepare such a thing for a guest staying overnight?

You know, stories like those in TV dramas that kill chickens and cattle for passers-by who meet by chance can only appear in TV dramas.The other party treats me so special, and today the young man is hemming and hawing to me...

Zhang Yan suddenly had an immature guess in his heart.

Chapter 23 Lu Zijing

"If there is no accident, we will set off in a while..."

……

"Well, sir, you are going to Zhouzhou. I heard from my second uncle. Zhoulai is not far from Zhongli, and it doesn't take long to walk there."

I don't know if it was Zhang Yan's illusion, but after the strong man sighed, his whole demeanor changed, becoming more free and easy, and much more natural than before.

"Well, go to the state to do something."

"Why, why don't you tell me?"

"Why don't I just leave some gold and silver for you. Thinking about it, at this time, there are few problems that gold and silver can't solve."

Sitting in front of the strong man and pursing his lips, Zhang Yan saw that the other party still didn't speak, and thought it was just that the man was too shy to tell him directly, so he simply made up his mind and planned to leave some money for the other party directly. Kind of, it can be regarded as helping the other party.

No matter what problems this farmer encountered, in his eyes, as long as it could be solved with money, it was not a problem at all.

It just so happened that he stayed at someone's house for the night, so it's not too much to leave some of his own money for the other party.

Thinking like this, Zhang Yan touched from his bosom and took out a small golden pancake.

He pinched his hands vigorously, frowned, and with the strength of his body, he directly grabbed a small piece of the gold cake from the top, which weighed about three or four taels, and placed it in front of the strong man.

As the gold cake made a light slap when it came into contact with the table, Zhang Yan didn't feel anything at all. On the contrary, when the strong man saw it, he seemed a little unbelievable, and some wanted to laugh, but some couldn't.

……

"Hey, look at your appearance, you obviously have something to say, but you don't say it, you look at me so awkwardly..."

"That's all, why don't you take the money, it's about three or four thousand dollars, even if it's not much, it's definitely not a problem to help you solve your urgent needs."

Gently waving his hand at the strong man, Zhang Yan planned to get up and leave.

Since the other party doesn't speak, there's no need for him to procrastinate, he might as well leave here earlier, anyway, he still has some business to do.

But Zhang Yan didn't expect that the man who was still hesitating in front of him just now couldn't help laughing when he saw him take out a piece of gold cake, and then reached out and grabbed his sleeve, It is not at all like the look just now, but the expression of eyebrows and eyes in every move is a bit like that of Pei Yuanshao's gang of warriors under him.

It was also from this time that the other party's previous sense of separation, which clearly had a war-crazy face but pretended to be gentle, finally disappeared completely.

……

"Sir, this money is unnecessary..."

Smiling and waving like Zhang Yan, Lu Su held the small piece of gold cake, neither smiling nor not smiling, and after a long while, he stuffed the gold cake back into Zhang Yan's hand.

It's just that Zhang Yan frowned when he saw this, and he was somewhat resistant to the other party's behavior.

"What are you doing, I should give you this money, you just use it."

……

"No, no, I... I'm actually not short of this little money."

A little awkwardly smirked in front of Zhang Yan, Lu Su thought for a while, and then rejected the other party's kindness again.

It's just that he forgot that he is still a child of a peasant family in Zhang Yan's eyes, so his rejection of the other party in this way is nothing but an expression of embarrassment in Zhang Yan's view.

……

"Look at you, what are you doing!"

"Don't think too much about it. Although it's a lot of money, it's all that matters to me. You just treat it as the money I give you for food and lodging. You can feel at ease with it, and I'm happy to do so."

"Otherwise, why don't you think it's too little?"

Forcibly stuffing that bit of gold back to Lu Su, Zhang Yan thought that the other party wanted something from him at the moment, so he acted very straightforwardly.

On the other hand, on Lu Su's side, after holding the gold in a daze for a long time, he sighed and collected the money, and looked at Zhang Yan with something different in his expression.

"Well, you... all these years, my Lu family has always been the only one who helps others. This is the first time that I have been helped."

"You are a bit interesting, that's fine, I will keep the money for the second uncle."

"It's just that you don't think too much, sir. Although I have something to do with you, it's not that I have encountered any trouble. It's just that I heard my second uncle say that a big man went north and passed by Zhongli last night. That's why I rushed over from Xiapi overnight. .”

……

"Come from Xiapi County, isn't that the boundary of Xuzhou?"

"Wait, let's say that, the old farmer and you..."

"No, Xiapi? The Lu family?"

……

After hearing the strong man's explanation, Zhang Yan couldn't help being taken aback.

Originally, he thought that the other party was just the old man's nephew, so he preconceived and misunderstood the other party's identity and purpose of coming.

Looking back now, this brawny man was indeed a little listless, and the dark circles on his face were also obvious, obviously he had just stayed up all night.

Then, not long after, he suddenly realized a problem.That is, since this person came from the north overnight, he must not be a child of an ordinary family.

It takes a whole night to ride a horse from Xiapi to Zhongli. In this era, even if it is not a big family, it must be a powerful landlord.

The landlord of Xiapi, the other party said that his surname is Lu...

Zhang Yan suddenly found a somewhat familiar name from the depths of his mind.

This person might be one of the series of scribes he wanted to recruit when he made a plan to go north to help Tao Qian pacify Xuzhou.

……

"Lu... Zijing?"

Thinking about the man with some uncertainty, he asked a question. It wasn't that Zhang Yan was slow, but the impression of "Lu Zijing" in his mind was quite different from the burly man in front of him who was so burly that he didn't look like a human. It was because they had nothing in common, which made him never think in that direction.

Seeing him call out his name, Lu Su also froze in front of him, and then the "job application speech" he had prepared was stuck in his throat, not knowing how to speak.

If it is said that the most embarrassing scene for a job seeker, it is undoubtedly that the person who sent his resume happens to know himself or has heard of his reputation.

He didn't know why Zhang Yan knew him, let alone what kind of fixed image he was in the eyes of the other party.

……

"Uh, yes... it's right here."

"I am Lu Zijing from Xiapilu's family."

"Speaking of which, sir, do you actually recognize me?"

Lu Su hesitated and asked Zhang Yan.
