Chapter 368 Can Be a Statue in a Temple

Qi Jing was already in a festive atmosphere, with lights and festoons everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The tofu restaurant is no exception. It is still busy at night, preparing for the tofu to be served on the big day tomorrow. It will be provided free of charge for three days starting tomorrow. The amount of free supply must be large, and those civilians who can't usually afford it will probably be crowded.

"Actually, there are many places that will provide free food tomorrow. As far as I know, a large number of noodle cakes are being produced in the palace, and they will be distributed at the charity point tomorrow. Also, there will be a shed at the Yuwang Mansion to provide free food tomorrow." , A lot of rich and powerful families have to respond. As long as you don’t lose your face, the people in the entire capital can basically eat and drink for nothing these days.”

Shopkeeper Gao said while pouring wine for Yuan Gang.

He didn't go home today, and planned to live here for a few days. It must be very busy these days. The two of them were talking about how much free tofu would be supplied, while watching the busy people in the backyard.

Yuan Gang: "The amount should be a little more."

Shopkeeper Gao sighed and said, "Boss, I understand your kindness, but I'm afraid that kindness will do bad things! You think, most of the people who can come to eat for free are poor people, and some people will save it if they can't finish it. I wish I could get some more and save them so that I can eat them later. People in the government will be busy tomorrow and won’t send someone to guard our tofu, and we can’t figure out who has received and who hasn’t. With so many people in the capital, who Can you finish it?"

"Boss, our tofu is not like noodles and pancakes. It can't be kept for a long time, and it's very easy to deteriorate, so we can't open the supply, we must control the amount, otherwise if a lot of people eat it later, it will be a happy day. This is going to make a big splash! If people don’t accept our kindness, the signboard of our tofu shop will also be smashed.”

"Boss, to put it bluntly, the current situation has changed. In the past, the general remained neutral. Everyone wanted to win him over. At least no one wanted to offend the general. No one dared to touch us because of the general's house. It won't be so in the future. Some people are worried that they won't be able to make a fuss, and small things can be turned into big things. Do you think the higher-ups will deal with it according to the law or take the lead in breaking the law? I'm afraid that even the third young master will have to deal with it in this capital in the future. Restrain yourself, the General's Mansion has told us to be careful."

Yuan Gang thought for a while, then nodded slightly: "Treasurer Gao is reasonable, let's do as you say! By the way, is the business of hiring a restaurant to reward everyone tomorrow done?"

Shopkeeper Gao said with a smile: "Okay, okay, everything is done, the boss doesn't have to worry, just go to the general's mansion for a wedding, I'll watch over here."

Yuan Gang said calmly: "I won't go to the wedding at the General's Mansion, and it's the same to accompany everyone here."

Shopkeeper Gao said: "Not everyone is qualified to drink the wedding wine. Those who can go represent status and status. No matter how many big families in the capital want to go, they can only watch. When the time comes, there will be a crowd The staff are either rich or noble, and not everyone has the opportunity to show their face. The general's sons are all friends with the master, and they are all worthy of the master's brothers. When the time comes, let everyone see how the master's face in the capital will be in the future. That's it. Butler Zha personally told me to invite you to a wedding banquet. You can't be ungrateful for this kind of face and kindness."

Yuan Gang: "Because the people who go there are either rich or expensive, that's not the place I should go. It's the same when I am here to help the third young master entertain the people below."

What kind of restaurant is here, I just don't want to drink any wedding wine, and I'm worried that people from Hao Qingqing's side will recognize it.

Shopkeeper Gao just asked, "Third Young Master's friendship with you, his big marriage, is it appropriate for you not to go? It's unreasonable both emotionally and rationally!"

"..." Yuan Gang was silent, and then asked again, "What does it mean to ask Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian to come and drink with me by name?"

Shopkeeper Gao smiled wryly: "Boss, how many times have you asked me, I really don't know, I also wonder about this, but this is what Housekeeper Cha said..."

Among the white clouds, at midnight, the main entrance, which was almost never closed day and night, was closed with a "buzz".

The eldest princess is getting married, and from now on, all the places where filth and evil people are sheltering in the capital will be closed for three days.

Su Zhao and Qin Mian, who were standing upstairs, watched the colorful lights go out in the hall, and watched the girls leave with smiles on their faces, only some people left to clean.

The two also turned around and disappeared in the depths of the corridor. When they reached the backyard, Su Zhao looked up at the starry sky, and suddenly asked, "You said you sent someone to track down Jin Chi in Qingshan County, can you find where Niu Youdao is?"

Qin Mian smiled wryly, "Qingshan County is involved in public and military affairs. I don't know how many golden wings are flying around. Who knows which one is connected with the cattle. If you want to track them down, how many large birds have to be sent? That's a big fanfare. , It’s hard not to be discovered, it’s of no use. Besides, Niu Youdao may have returned to Qingshan County.”

That's what Su Zhao said, and Niu Youdao ran away from under his nose just like that, he just couldn't swallow it.

"Boss, it's been quiet for the past few days anyway, do you want someone to invite An Taiping to come over and accompany you?" Qin Mian asked teasingly.

Su Zhao's cheeks were slightly hot, and he gave her a white look...

The next day, General Huyan's mansion was extremely lively, and the eldest princess entered the door of Huyan's house.

Yuan Gang led the two missing arms and legs and did not show up until the lights came on and the wedding banquet began, and the three found a corner to sit down.

Yuan Gang didn't want to mix with those who were either rich or noble. At his request, Huyan's family seemed to understand him and arranged him in a relatively remote courtyard.

Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian, who are missing arms and legs, are also happy. They really feel that this place is not for them, and they both think it is better to hide in the corner.

When the courtyard here was filled up one after another, they found that they were all wearing battle armor. Only then did the three know that the people drinking wedding wine in this courtyard were all officers of the Valiant Cavalry Army.

The three Yuan Gang who were not wearing battle armor were more eye-catching.

"Who is that red face and those two old men without arms and legs?"

"Big red face wasn't red before, it's the owner of the tofu restaurant, and the one missing arms and legs is the street sweeper outside the tofu restaurant."

"What's the matter? Even the door sweeper of the tofu shop came here?"

"Hey! Why do you care so much? It's so obvious that it can be included. There must be a reason."

After the eating and drinking started, a group of military men gradually let go, and the scene became noisy, pushing and changing cups and drinking.

Yuan Gang, Yuan Dahu, and Gu Younian ate in the corner in a low-key manner.

"The general is here."

There were several sounds at the scene, and everyone put down their wine glasses, and some quickly put on their helmets. There was a clatter of battle armor, and everyone basically stood up.

Accompanied by several attendants, Huyan Wuhen arrived, his calm and prestige eyes swept across the crowd.

"Congratulations, General, Congratulations, General!"

All the people faced each other and cupped their hands, congratulating loudly, one after another.

Huyan Wuhen raised his hand, the scene immediately became still, he pressed his palm down, and all the generals sat down again, all sitting upright and motionless.

The aura of prohibition caused Yuan Gang, who was looking around, to tremble slightly.

Zha Hu pouted his lips towards Yuan Gang, and whispered something into Huyan Wuhen's ear.

From Huyan Wuhen's eyes, people also came over, to Yuan Gang's table, to Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian's, which made them very nervous.

Huyan Wuhen stretched out his hand to the side, and immediately someone put the cup of wine in his hand.

"You two are older than me and joined the army earlier than me. I am very happy that you two can come to drink wedding wine. I will present you a bowl first!" Huyan Wuhen gestured with both hands holding the bowl.

what's the situation? All the generals looked at this side in unison, each one in shock.

Not to mention the others, Yuan Gang was equally astonished, not knowing what was going on.

Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian hurriedly stood up, not daring to speak.

"I'll do it first as a respect!" Huyan Wuhen raised his head and drank it dry in one gulp, and showed the bottom of the drained bowl to the two of them.

The two quickly took the wine bowls, stammered congratulations to the general, and then quickly drank it down. Yuan Dahu drank too fast, choked and coughed repeatedly.

Huyan Wuhen's eyes fell on Yuan Gang's face again, and asked, "Why are you blushing?"

"Practice." Yuan Gang said the truth.

"It can be used as a statue in a temple." Huyan Wuhen taunted, then ignored it, turned around, ordered another bowl of wine, and looked around at everyone serving bowls.

Everyone stood up with drinks.

"You are all brothers who have lived and died with me, and I will not beat around the bush with you. The third son of my family should stop fooling around, and soon he will be thrown into the cavalry army for beatings. Some people understand the reason, while others don't. In a word, anyone who is polite to him will harm him. Also, today everyone is here for a wedding ceremony, and there are no military rules, but you can drink to your heart's content, please!" The last sonorous and forceful sound, Huyan Wuhen once again acted first as a respect.

Everyone immediately drank together.

After putting down the wine cup, Huyan Wuhen strode away. When walking through the crowd, he kept his eyes fixed and said in a melodious tone: "People are in the hall, they can't help themselves, and there are some guests on the scene outside, so it's not easy to offend them." , I have no choice but to neglect my brother. If you have enough food and drink, I won’t accompany you. Don’t drink like crazy after drinking, and go back honestly!” The big sleeve waved.

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison and watched him leave.

Next, Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian became everyone's focus, asking each other who it was that allowed the general to come and toast alone.

Now no one dares to underestimate the two of them anymore, the generals at the same table couldn't help but ask each other: "It turns out that the two of you are also from the army. I don't know which team they belong to?"

Yuan Dahu and Gu Younian didn't want to mention it, but they were caught and questioned one after another, and it was not easy to lie, so they finally came up with three words, Heifengqi!

As a result, Yuan Gang found that the eyes of the generals looking at the two of them changed, and they were all in awe!

After the end, a bunch of people came to toast!

The wine made the two old men cry, and they were completely drunk, and they didn't know how they got back.

A few days later, I figured out what was going on with the 'Black Wind Rider', and the two old men were taken out of the city by Yuan Gang to help train the group of people in the tofu restaurant...
