Three Kingdoms Guo Jia's growth diary

In the hall, a luxurious banquet is laid out, and wine statues and Zuji (cutting boards for meat) are displayed.

Before the food was served, the general sat around in a circle, drinking and punching.

Dian Wei also joined them, and soon, led by Zhao Yun, became one with a group of generals.Guo Jia thought of his uncle and Zhao Ang who was still in Dongjun and couldn't leave his post without authorization, so his thin lips pursed slightly.It will usher in a new year of old relatives and old friends, north and south, east and west, and cherish the people around you.

The civil servants are serving the wine order, sitting in twos and threes, resting on the tea bowls, guessing what is covered under the bowl.It turned out that they were playing the game of Shefu. Shefu is called the ancestor of the drinking order. The game is relatively difficult, and most people can't play it well. It was once lost in later generations.

Guo Jia didn't see Cao Cao, he might be soaking in some hot spring pool in the backyard.

There was an unexpected acquaintance sitting at the table, Hu Zhao, a famous scholar from Yingchuan.Behind Hu Zhao stood a young man in plain clothes, about thirteen or fourteen years old, his face was a bit cold and a bit arrogant.

As soon as Guo Jia entered the table, Hu Zhao immediately teased him: "Feng Xiao is the last one to come, so he should be punished." After speaking, Hu Zhao, Xi Yi and other fellow villagers rushed up, and poured him a glass of wine.

Xun Yu watched quietly from the side, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

Under Hu Zhao's signal, the young man behind him stepped forward, bowed to Guo Jia, and reported himself as Sima Yi in Hanoi.

Guo Jia immediately remembered the classic description about Sima Yi in Romance: There is an eagle watching a wolf Gu Zhixiang.

However, the young man in front of him was ordinary-looking, and there was nothing special about him, only his eyes were extremely sharp. When he looked at people, he looked like an eagle staring at its prey.However, this guy's head can really be rotated 180 degrees, and he can look directly behind without turning around?

With sharp eyes, Sima Yi looked at the distinguished scribe from head to toe, and from bottom to top, and asked in the voice of a male duck unique to teenagers in the voice-changing period: "Your Excellency is Guo Fengxiao, the number one talented scholar in Yingchuan?"

Guo Jia put away the smile on his lips, and said seriously: "It is true that he is the number one in Yingchuan, but he is not the number one talented person, but the number one prodigal son in Yingchuan. The title of Jia is hard-won, you must not remember it wrong "It's really a young man who has never been beaten by life. Can such an arrogant word as "number one" be randomly assigned to others?There are so many talents in Yingchuan, you are cheating me.

Sima Yi: "..."

The crowd burst into laughter.

Hu Zhao raised his glass to invite him to drink with Guo Jia across the food table.

Cheng Yu laughed and said, "Didn't Kong Ming (Hu Zhao's word) want to get Feng Xiao drunk so that he would lose to your proud disciple?"

Hu Zhao slightly raised his chin proudly, "Shoot, only Feng Xiao hasn't shot yet."

It turned out that in this shooting game, Hu Zhao was the commanding officer, and it was Sima Yi's turn to cover something with a copper bowl. The crowd was full of wise men, but no one guessed it right, and they all shot empty.

Xi Yan stuffed Guo Jia with three copper coins: "Guo Banxian, our fame for the rest of our life depends entirely on you."

Guo Jia glanced at him lightly, and asked unhurriedly, "If you guess right, what's the prize?"

Hu Zhao: "Three manuscripts, let Zhao write anything."

Hu Zhao's calligraphy is also unique in the world, and he is called "Hu Zhong" together with Zhong Yao, the originator of regular script.There is a saying in later generations: Hu Feizhong is thin, each is good at his own beauty.

Can write anything?Guo Jia: Brother Kong Ming, believe it or not, let you copy a copy of "Historical Records"?It's just a manuscript.

He concentrated his attention on divination, and the divination showed that the things inside were green, and it might be a personal item made of jade, which was related to riding and shooting.

Guo Jia pondered for a while, and said firmly: "Yingying emerald jade, the boy Peiwei."

"Peiwei" is the wrench worn on the hand.

Sima Yi revealed a look of astonishment, and stretched out his hand to uncover the bowl. Underneath was an emerald green jade wrench.Guo Jia guessed quite accurately and won the lottery.

When Hu Zhao came to Yanzhou this time, he brought a blood book with him. All the officials in Yingchuan County who survived the war bit their index fingers and wrote their names on white silk, entrusting Hu Zhao to meet Cao Cao and ask Cao Cao After the beginning of spring, the envoy dispatched troops as soon as possible to wipe out the rebellious soldiers and bandits in Yingchuan, so as to restore stability in his hometown.

However, according to Cao Cao's mind, he would definitely want to attack Xuzhou first, so he deliberately avoided and did not meet Hu Zhao.

Hu Zhao chatted with some fellow villagers and drank a few more glasses. Seeing that Cao Cao never came, he actually wept in public at the banquet.

Guo Jia had an intuition: This is a scheming uncle's tear strategy, and if he uses it occasionally, it still has some effect.

In a short while, Cao Cao appeared in the chief seat of the banquet in an official uniform.

Hu Zhao opened the blood book with tears in his eyes, knelt down to express his feelings, and his words were sincere, and everyone who heard it was moved.

Who doesn't want peace and stability in their hometown?Guo Jia and Xun Yu looked at each other, then looked away, carefully observing the subtle changes in Cao Cao's face.It is estimated that Cao Cao soaked in the hot spring. He had just washed his hair, and before he had time to dry it, he tied his hair and wore a crown, and his hair was still dripping.

It is easy to get a headache like this. Thinking of the historical records, Cao Cao often has a headache.Guo Jia walked up to Xi Zhicai, pulled out his sweat towel, handed it to Cao Cao, and motioned for the lord to wipe his hair.And successfully harvested Xi Zhicai's rolling eyes, and Cao Cao's bewildered moment, then nodded and smiled.

Hu Zhao: "Cao Shijun nods, which means he agrees."

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he put his right hand on the hilt of his sword, and asked solemnly, "What did I promise you?" Cao Cao has seen many celebrities, and this is the first time he has learned about the scoundrels among celebrities.

An uneasy hostility permeated the surroundings, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent, so Guo Jia's soft hiss was particularly eye-catching.

Cao Cao let go of the hilt of his sword, and his face softened slightly: "Feng Xiao, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

Guo Jia frowned slightly: I have nothing to say, Sima Yi pinched me!It hurts!

He adjusted his mood and said in a warm voice, "Although Xuzhou is rich and prosperous, it is only a state. Since ancient times, there have been many strange people in Ruying. If Yingchuan is stabilized first, and wise men and capable people are loyal to assist, why worry about the world being uncertain?"

Cao Cao stared at Guo Jia until his heart was shaking, and suddenly he clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, let's put down the bandits in Yingchuan first." In this way, these Yingchuan think tanks under his command should not have second thoughts, right?

After the banquet, the steward of Cao Cao's mansion arranged accommodation for everyone.

The hot spring vacation plan lasted for three days. On the first day, everyone stayed in the villa one after another, and held a collective banquet during the time.From the second day onwards, you are free to relax.

Cao Cao's servant was in charge of leading the way: "Mr. Guo, you are staying here. The master said that you are good at drinking, so he specially prepared high-quality silver charcoal, so that the charcoal basin does not produce smoke, and it is best for warming wine."

Guo Jia glanced at the painted lacquer plate beside it, the double wine set, a pot of hot tea, and five small snacks assembled into a plum blossom shape.Thank you without humility.

I have to say that Liu Dai really enjoys it. The villa he built is cheaper than Cao Cao’s. It covers a wide area, with well-arranged houses, a flock of geese, several vegetable fields, and a large plum grove.

It may be because it is warmer beside the hot spring. The plum tree is already in bud, and it can be seen that it is a red plum with double petals.

The open-air hot spring soup pool built by the mountain allows you to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms while taking a bath.There are also stone tables beside the soup pool, where food and sundries can be placed.Yashe is just a dozen steps away, so you can take a nap in it, or linger for a few days.

After a while, the waiter came to deliver the supper. He first saluted and asked the number of people. Dian Wei said there were two people.Then a servant brought two food tables, and the maid shuttled back and forth, ordering two servings of wine and food, each with eight dishes: sauced donkey meat, distiller's lees fish, sweet-scented osmanthus duck, sesame seed pancakes, honey peach sticks, pickled oranges...

At this season, there are no fresh vegetables on the market. Most of these things are prepared according to the recipes released by the Guo Mansion. Wei opened his mouth to eat alone.

After all the servants and maids left, Guo Jia picked up the fire chopsticks and poked a hole in the charcoal basin, made a hole, took out a few sweet potatoes from the portable space, and put them in the charcoal ashes to simmer.

Guo Jia shared his foodie experience: "This thing has been simmered for an hour, and it is fragrant and noodle-like."

"Put it down quickly, sir, and let me do it. Don't do this kind of rough work." Dian Wei happily snatched the fire chopsticks, lowered his head and picked the ashes, and buried the potato under it.

The son with delicate skin and tender meat actually likes to think about recipes, and often prepares food for the guards. Didn't you say that "a gentleman stays away from the kitchen", and the sons of the gentry never interfere with the work of these common people?However, Mr. Guo's small dishes are sometimes delicious, and sometimes they taste so weird that people can't swallow them.

Today's simmered sweet potato, is it really fragrant and noodle, or...

Dian Wei was thinking about it when suddenly a fan hit him lightly on the head.He turned his head and smiled warmly at Guo Jia: "Mr. Dian, take a bath here, and you can take the food and utensils as you like, without being restricted. Jia is going to visit friends, if anyone asks, just tell the truth."

As dusk fell, Guo Jia walked into the dense mist alone, walked slowly for dozens of steps, and probably reached the open space between two courtyards. This place is relatively open, there is basically no water vapor, and the vision is relatively clear. In the mist in the distance, a corner of the elegant light purple dress fluttered in the wind and disappeared. Guo Jia stepped forward quickly. It was Du Heng, Xun Yu's maid.

"Mr. Guo, please, the maidservant will lead the way for you."

"It's work."

Xun Yu has a slight obsession with cleanliness, so Cao Cao specially left him a secluded soup pool.

In the leisurely afternoon, an early-blooming winter plum, with bright red branches reflecting the winter scenery wrapped in silver, is extraordinarily enchanting.

On the incense table is a bronze stove with green sparrows, burning ambergris cakes.

Guo Jia untied the light coat, handed it to the maid, casually picked up the tea bowl on the desk, took a sip, and drank half of the bowl in one gulp if it wasn't too hot.Then he met Xun Yu who was hesitant to speak, only to find that Xun Yu was pouring tea for him.

What he drank just now was Xun Yu's tea.

After refreshments, Xun Yu went to soak in the hot spring pool.Accompanied by the sound of gurgling spring water, the long black hair and jade-colored skin appear and disappear in the mist.

Guo Jia took off his shoes and socks, stood barefoot by the edge of the soup pool, and tested the water temperature with his feet.The heat of the hot spring is fumigated, and there is white snow two feet away, and it doesn't feel cold.
