There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Ju Shou's words were extremely fair, but it was not pleasant to Yuan Shang's ears.

Could this bastard be the same guy as Yuan Tan?What are you messing up!

Although Yuan Shao was angry at Yuan Tan for not being up to date, he was still his son after all, and he also hoped that what Pang Ji said was wrong, so he sent a large number of Hebei spies to Pengcheng to inquire about it according to Ju Shou's suggestion.

……

Now that it was New Year's Eve, the pottery merchant really obeyed the foreword and invited Yuan Tan into the mansion to celebrate the New Year with his clansmen.

The pottery merchant first introduced Yuan Tan to Tao Qian and Wang Yun who came back from the Taoist temple outside the city, then introduced him to his family members, and coaxed the little Tao Ji, who was learning to speak, to call him Uncle Yuan Tan.

Of course, Tao Ji didn't know how to bark at all, but just sprayed "Aba Aba" on Yuan Tan's face.

The family spent the New Year's Eve happily and harmoniously. Yuan Tan was very moved by the enthusiasm and kindness of the Tao family.

So sweet.

During the dinner, the potter specially invited Yuan Tan to taste a new popular staple food.

It is said that this thing was invented by Zhang Ji, the medical officer under his command, and improved by the potter himself - it is called Crescent Chaos, and it can also be called dumplings.

Yuan Tan put a dumpling in his mouth with some hesitation, and chewed, the light in his eyes couldn't help but shine brightly.

"Is it delicious? Brother?" The potter said with a smile.

"Delicious! Delicious! The southeast land not only has beautiful mountains and rivers, outstanding people, but also has such a unique taste in the world! My brother is really lucky to be born in a land of beautiful mountains and rivers. It is much better than us in the bitter cold in the north." .” Yuan Tan kept nodding his head in praise while eating.

The pottery merchant chuckled, and said: "That's natural, brother, do you know that there is a saying in our side, it's delicious but not dumplings, and it's fun—but sister-in-law."

When Yuan Tan first heard this, he laughed silly, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't be happier.

It was because the pottery merchant called him "brother" one by one, which made his brain glow green.

While the family banquet was being happily held, Pei Guang, who was on duty on New Year's Eve, came to report to the potter.

The potter put down his chopsticks and walked out of the hall with him.

"Teacher, there have been a lot of Hebei people from other places in the city recently. I think it should be the secret work of Hebei, but there are so many people, it is a bit unusual."

The potter raised his eyebrows slightly, pondered for a while, and suddenly became happy.

"It seems that these people should all come here for Yuan Tan... Hehe, sure enough, it was right to let Pang Ji go back first. This old boy belongs to Yuan Shang's family, and there is nothing good to say from him!"

Pei Guang suddenly said: "It turns out that the Taifu made a plan to befriend Yuan Tan a long time ago!"

Tao Shang said: "In this way, my plan has come to fruition! Order me down, no one is allowed to do anything about the details of Hebei...Let the school affairs government find a way to spread the news that I invited Yuan Tan to Tao's house to celebrate the New Year. It would be best. Do some more plumping touches."

Pei Guang didn't understand, so he wondered: "Teacher, what is plump modification?"

"Pig!" The potter patted Pei Guang's head and said angrily, "Do you understand the rumors? Will you lie?"

Pei Guang shook his head very sincerely: "Adhering to my father's training since childhood, I will not lie."

The pottery merchant took a deep breath and said helplessly, "Pei Guang, in this troubled world, it's because you followed me! If you are a kind person like you, if you are placed in the society, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as Pei Guang. , then you may have to change your name."

"Then what should the subordinate be called?"

"Change it to Pei Qingguang, or Pei Guangguang."

Pei Guang: "..."

"Can't do such a simple thing? Let people use the reason that Yuan Tan and I celebrate the New Year together today to spread some rumors, such as Yuan Tan worshiping my father as a godfather, and marrying Wang Yun as a brother with a different surname." ... Rumors like this, understand?"

Pei Guang suddenly realized, but said: "Teacher, but if Yuan Tan becomes brothers with Wang Situ, wouldn't you have to follow him down the next generation? When you see Yuan Shao later, don't you have to call him Grandpa?"

Pottery: "..."

Chapter 492 The Lobbying Duo

After the Chinese New Year, the pottery merchant sent someone to send Yuan Tan back to Hebei according to his previous promise.

On the day Yuan Tan left Pengcheng, the pottery merchant led all the civil and military personnel from Xuzhou out of the city to see him off in person. The scene was very grand.

It was not just a simple farewell, Yuan Tan was accompanied by gifts, gold leaf, brocade and fruits carefully prepared by the potters.

Extremely enthusiastic, except for life and death friends, most people never have such treatment.

On the day of parting, the potter was in tears all the time.

Reluctantly saying goodbye to Yuan Tan, he told his escorts: "My elder brother likes to eat tangerines grown in the southeast of our country. I will prepare some for him to use on the road. You should be careful and serve him along the way. Remind your elder brother more." Eat every day, don't let things rot."

The escort under his command hurriedly took orders.

"There are also pottery and bronze wares that my brother likes our Xuzhou specialty the most. I have also prepared a lot. When I go back, my brother will think about things and think about others. Maybe he will think of my little brother. You take care of them along the way and don't break them."

Yuan Tan felt a little sad when he heard the ceramic merchant's thoughtful arrangement... Brother, what more can I ask for.

The potter continued to order the escort and said: "There are also my brother's favorite dumplings, and you always remind him to eat some."

Yuan Tan was sweating profusely on his forehead when he heard this.

This is really not like to eat!

Just don't like to play with your sister-in-law!

"And my brother's favorite..."

Yuan Tan raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his brow, and said in a low voice, "Brother Tao...how about I don't leave?"

The pottery merchant hastily changed his words: "It's brother Meng Lang! The younger brother is just deeply in love and can't bear to part with his elder brother. I hope that my elder brother will not blame me! Sigh, you will have to say goodbye after sending you thousands of miles away. Get out of here... hurry up and get on the road."

Yuan Tan took the potter's hand, shook it hard, and said in a hoarse voice, "Brother Tao, take care!"

"Brother, take care."

After Yuan Tan set off, the potter kept watching his chariot disappear, and stayed where he was for a long time.

Zhao Yun stood behind the potter all the time, and couldn't help being a little curious when he saw this, he said, "Third brother, Yuan Tan has already left, what are you still doing here? You can't even see the figure clearly."

The pottery merchant chuckled and said, "Don't worry, let the bullet fly for a while."

Zhao Yun has only heard Ziyue in his life, but he really doesn't know what a bullet is.

While continuing to watch the direction where Yuan Tan disappeared, the pottery merchant explained to Zhao Yun: "This play, you have to do enough, it's not enough to let Yuan Jun's spies go back and report to Yuan Shao... Divorce is something that sometimes happens. , it’s so simple and pure, it doesn’t need to be profound, as long as it comes from the heart.”
