Time Traveling: The Man and Wife Heads the House

The wine was drunk until after You o'clock in the evening, and finally the guests and hosts broke up happily.

Zeng Yu was so drunk that his eyes were hazy, he held the hands of Gu Xihe and Zhang Chi, and said vaguely and reluctantly, "You two brothers, it's been a hard journey all the way here. Have a good rest at night, and my brother will take you to enjoy the flowers tomorrow." .”

Although Zhang Chi drank a lot of wine, he was sober, with the same smile on his face, "Brother Zeng's kindness is appreciated, Xihe will have an exam in two days, Xihe and I still won't go."

"Brother Zhang, you have to give me face!" Zeng Yu said with a big tongue, "Brother Gu's literary talents, we all know, there is no need to review at all! It's settled, I will pick you up tomorrow! A gentleman, four horses Difficult to chase!"

Among the other people, Chen Chun was the one who drank the most. His face had turned from red to white at this time, and he was not much drunk.

Gu Xihe handed Lu Zixiu who was drunk to him, and repeatedly asked, "Brother Chen must send Zixiu to the inn safely."

Chen Chun readily agreed.

Lu Zixiu's drinking capacity is actually not small, but seeing Gu Xihe and Zhang Chi depressed together, he got drunk before he knew it.

Wang Ji drank the least, his face was flushed, but his eyes were clear, Wang Zhe had a bewildered smile on his face, his slender eyes blinked, blinked again, and then fell on his brother, "Brother, Let's go home! I don't want to take the exam! I can't pass it anyway."

Wang Ji had a big head, and apologized to everyone, and helped him go.

Everyone left, Zhang Chi took Gu Xihe's hand and walked to the inn where he was temporarily staying.

With the spring breeze blowing and the moonlight dim, Zhang Chi looked sideways at Gu Xihe's gentle face, and couldn't help but clenched his hand tightly.

He hoped that after tonight, Lu Zixiu would be able to retreat in spite of the difficulties, and stop trying to think of his family, Gu Xihe.

The two walked slowly without talking, just looking at each other and smiling slightly were worth a thousand words.

After traveling on the road for more than ten days, they were finally able to lie down in a clean and comfortable inn and have a good sleep. Zhang Chi and Gu Xihe had a rare sleep in.

By the time they finished washing and had breakfast, it was almost Mao o'clock.

"Brother Chi, Zixiu and Brother Zeng said yesterday that they are going to enjoy the peach blossoms today, are you going?"

Zhang Chi deliberately retreated, "Do you think it's appropriate for me to go?"

"Why is it inappropriate? Your performance was better than mine last night. Brother Chi, I didn't expect you to have read so many poems."

Zhang Chi smiled and whispered in his ear: "When you're not at home, all I can do is read to pass the time."

Gu Xihe blushed slightly, but did not question his words.There are indeed many collections of poetry in his family. It is not surprising that Zhang Chi can read and remember a few poems after reading those books.

"Brother Chi, will you go with me? I want you to go with me. "

Gu Xihe softened his voice, Zhang Chi accepted it very much, but acted reluctantly, "As long as you don't find it difficult, of course I am willing to accompany you."

Gu Xihe smiled, "Of course it's not difficult."

Zhang Chi immediately opened the luggage happily, and found clothes for the two of them to change into.

The weather had warmed up, so Zhang Chi dressed Gu Xihe in a white robe and a light green trimmed vest, making him look elegant and refined.And Zhang Chi himself was wearing a light blue robe, standing together with Gu Xihe, very harmonious.

When Zhang Chi saw the eyes of Zeng Yu, Lu Zixiu and others looking at Gu Xihe, he regretted it again, and didn't want them to look at it!

Zeng Yu circled around Gu Xihe, looked back and forth carefully, and sighed, "Brother Gu, after you got married, how many girls' hearts have you broken! Look at this... tsk tsk tsk, I If you have a daughter, let her marry you."

Zhang Chi became dissatisfied, pulled Gu Xihe to his side, put his arms around his shoulders, and deliberately said: "You are late, Xihe is already mine, and I will never allow him to take a concubine."

Zeng Yu laughed loudly, "Brother Gu, your Zhangchi is really interesting!"

"Of course, the daughter-in-law I chose myself! How could it be so bad?"

After hearing Gu Xihe's words, Zhang Chi was elated, with a bright smile on his face, and pulled Gu Xihe out the door.

Lu Zixiu looked at Gu Xihe who was smiling slightly beside Zhang Chi, feeling sore in his heart.He didn't expect that Gu Xihe, who was always serious and introverted, would speak like this, and his whole person became extremely lively.He always persuaded himself to give up, but seeing Gu Xihe who was so lively and charming, how could he be willing to let go?

The weather is beautiful, cloudless, sunny and warm.A group of people sat in a carriage and went busily to the flower viewing place.

They followed Zeng Yu to the meeting place, only to realize that there are many students here today, including Chen Chun, Wang Ji, Wang Zhe whom they met yesterday, and Song Lian who Zhang Chi disliked the most.

Song Lian was wearing a white robe, waving a folding fan in his hand, shaking his head, talking and laughing with some students.

Seeing him, Lu Zixiu frowned slightly, and asked Zeng Yu in a low voice, "Why is he here?"

To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of Song Lian either.

Zeng Yu also saw Song Lian, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I didn't know he would come too, maybe he was invited by Hu Yard."

Gu Xihe didn't see Song Lian at first, but now he noticed Song Lian after listening to Zeng Yu and Lu Zixiu's words.

Seeing Zeng Yu's apologetic expression, he hurriedly said, "Brother Zeng, how can I be so stingy? I won't take small things to heart."

Seeing that Zhang Chi and Gu Xihe looked normal, talking and laughing, Zeng Yu didn't look like a fake.Seeing that the two of them had such big hearts, Zeng Yu secretly admired them and decided that these two friends, he made up his mind!

The so-called Peach Blossom Spring is a large area of ​​peach trees planted by Hu Xiaojin, a wealthy family in Su County. At this time, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, so he invited many students to drink and enjoy the flowers.Of course, Hu Xiaojin's original intention was to establish a good relationship with the students, to win over a few outstanding people, maybe one of them will be able to go to high school, and then he can also gain some fame along with him.

Hu Xiaojin is in his 40s, with a medium build and a little fat.A Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes reveal a shrewd light, but it is well hidden in a hearty smile.

Standing beside him was a slender young man with a long face and fair skin. His eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Hu Xiaojin's, but much more delicate than him.

Sure enough, Hu Xiaojin introduced to all the students that this was his youngest son, Hu Jia.

Zhang Chi could see that although this Hu Jia smiled politely, there was actually a bit of arrogance and disdain in his bones.

As soon as Song Lian saw Hu Jia, his eyes straightened, and his appearance became more and more wretched.When I got close to others, I didn't know what to say.

Zhang Chi sneered, dragged Gu Xihe to the back of the crowd.

He held Gu Xihe's hand tightly, and whispered: "Xihe, don't go alone, you must come with me."

The peach forest is so big that you can't see the edge at a glance. At this time, the flowers are in full bloom, like a sea of ​​pink.

What's more, there are small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, although they are artificially carved, they have a bit of natural elegance.

Zhang Chi likes water, so he took Gu Xihe's hand and walked along the water.Looking up, there are peach blossoms floating on the crystal clear river.

"There are flowers, water, and beauties," Zhang Chi sighed, "Such a beautiful scenery is really like a dream."

Gu Xihe glanced at him and said with a smile, "Which beauty is Brother Chi talking about?"

"Beauty! Of course..."

Just when Zhang Chi was about to say "It's you", he saw Hu Jia in a blink of an eye, standing on a big white boulder by the river with fluttering white clothes, and he pointed, "It's him."

Hu Jia glared at Zhang Chi suddenly, his eyebrows were raised up, obviously angry.

Gu Xihe covered his mouth and laughed, squinting at him to see what he would do.

Zhang Chi looked calm, smiled at Hu Jia, turned his head to look at Gu Xihe, and said seriously: "Xihe, beauty, ordinary people only think it is a metaphor for a beautiful woman, but it is wrong. The beauty I am talking about is Refers to people with good moral character. You have read so many books, have you not heard Mencius said, "Enriching good faith and making it true is for beauty"?"

Gu Xihe clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Brother Chi, I'm here to teach you."

The corners of Zhang Chi's mouth turned up slightly, and when he looked at Hu Jia again, his face had softened, but his gaze was still not so polite.

He clasped his fists and bowed in salute, "So it's Mr. Hu, Zhang Chi is taking the liberty."

Hu Jia looked at Zhang Chi the same way, then looked at Gu Xihe, and after sizing him up, said: "You are wrong, your husband is the beauty."

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, with a hint of sarcasm.

This little guy is still a vengeful person!

Zhang Chi shook Gu Xihe's hand, nodded and said, "Young Master Hu has no problem with his aesthetics. My husband is indeed a beauty, but you must always be humble, right? You can't say that. Thank you very much. Praise."

"... "

Hu Jia rolled his eyes, Gu Xihe is indeed good-looking, is Zhang Chi here to show off, or to compare his beauty with him?

He snorted coldly and ignored people.

Gu Xihe held back his laughter, pulled Zhang Chi to take two quick steps, and said in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Zhang Chi deliberately pretended to be puzzled, "I'm not talking nonsense, I'm just telling the truth. In my eyes, you are the most beautiful."

"you…"

Gu Xihe's face turned red again.

Zhang Chi had a sudden whim and sang, "You are the most beautiful in my heart, every smile makes me intoxicated..."

Hu Jia looked at the backs of Zhang Chi and Gu Xihe, and at the hands they held tightly, suddenly felt a little bit envious.When will there be such a person, who will hold my hand, turn a corner and praise my beauty.

Zhang Chi and Gu Xihe passed by the pavilions by the river, and they saw that there were brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, tea and snacks, and there were dedicated people serving them.

Zhang Chi was puzzled, and when he passed another bamboo pavilion, he stepped forward and asked the servants in the pavilion what they were doing.The servant told him that every student who comes here must leave a poem about peach blossoms.Zhang Chi saw that there were indeed several people standing beside the stone table in the pavilion, and one of them was lowering his head and splashing ink.

Zhang Chi and Gu Xihe didn't know each other standing in the pavilion, so they didn't bother them.Gu Xihe wanted to see what poems were written, so he and Zhang Chi walked in gently.

There are already several sets of characters hanging around the gazebo, some in regular lower case script, some in chic cursive script, all of which are poems written in the name of peach blossoms.Zhang Chi didn't quite understand, so he could only let Gu Xihe read slowly.

After hearing a few cheers, Gu Xihe and Zhang Chi turned their heads to look, and the person who wrote the poem just raised his head, and it turned out to be Song Lian.

After finishing his poem, he stood up straight, put down his pen triumphantly, and clasped his fists around, "Song has made a fool of himself."

A student picked up the words on the table and read aloud: "The peach blossoms bloom in spring, and the flowers fade in summer. Don't waste time looking at the flowers. If you waste time, you can't pick them. Good poems, good poems!"

When Zhang Chi heard this, he burst into a "puchi" laugh.

Song Lian glared at him, and Zhang Chi said hastily, "I'm not laughing at your poem, but just remembered a joke."

Song Lian snorted coldly, "Hmph! I'm afraid you can't read all the words for a pair of children? It's really insulting to gentlemen to go to a place where literati and refined scholars gather!"

After hearing Song Lian's words, several men looked at Zhang Chi together, and they were all puzzled in their hearts. This man is Shuang'er, not like it!How can Shuang'er grow so tall and straight?

They looked at Gu Xihe again, wow!Such a slender and delicate person, this is a pair, right?There were lewd lights in the eyes of the two men.

People really flock together, and Song Lian's friends are not good people!Zhang Chi wanted to goug out their eyes!But he still remembered that today he came to enjoy the flowers, and he didn't want to spoil Gu Xihe's mood, so he pulled Gu Xihe's hand, turned around and left.

Song Lian took a step forward and called out, "Gu Xihe, I heard that you are quick-witted and able to compose poetry in seven steps. How about letting us see it today?"

The others gasped when they heard Gu Xihe's name. It turned out that he was Gu Xihe, the second son of the Gu family, and the proud disciple of Mr. Lu of Yunshan Academy.I didn't expect him to be such a beautiful person!

Listening to their whispered discussions, Zhang Chi couldn't suppress his anger, and said with a sneer, "Why does my family Xihe want to show you? Do you know that he costs ten taels of silver to write a picture, and fifty taels to write a poem?" Money? If you can afford it, I will ask Xihe to write it to you right away."

Everyone's eyes widened, "What? It's so expensive?"

Zhang Chi raised his chin, "Of course. My family loves calligraphy and painting, how can I write casually?"

Song Lian snorted coldly, "Cut! Who would believe it? Only a fool would buy a picture of ten taels of silver, right?"

"Xihe, when did your words become worth ten taels of silver? Then I bought it for 30 taels, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Who is so familiar with Xi and Ming?

Zhang Chi looked at the person who came, and saw that the person was only in his 20s, wearing a blue robe, wearing a scarf on his head, and a jade pendant hanging from his waist, with a smile in his eyes, looking surprised.

Gu Xihe's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to salute, "Senior Brother Yang, you're here too? Didn't you go to Tongzhou?"

He turned around and introduced to Zhang Chi: "Brother Chi, this is my senior brother, Yang Shuyou, a Jinshi of Enke last year, and the county magistrate of Tongzhou."

He introduced to Yang Shuyou again, "Brother, this is my wife, Zhang Chi."

Zhang Chi's vigilance was erected in his heart, one Lu Zixiu is not counted, here is another senior brother?I want to see if he is interested in my family Xihe.

Yang Shuyou felt Zhang Chi's vigilance, and seeing him holding Gu Xihe's hand, he knew in his heart that this little guy was very nervous about Xihe.Before he heard that Gu Xihe was married, he wondered what kind of person could be worthy of him?Seeing Zhang Chi at this time, I suddenly felt that this should be such a person.
