Three Kingdoms

The Huang Family Yin Yuan was far ahead. Fei Qian could already see a group of people standing at the entrance of the village, and Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang Family, was at the head of them.

Fei Qian quickly dismounted, threw the reins to the guard at the side, then hurriedly took a few steps forward and prostrated himself before Huang Chengyan.

Huang Chengyan laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He quickly helped Fei Qian up with his own hands. After looking him up and down, he said loudly: "My wonderful son-in-law is back home now. I am really overjoyed! I have specially organized a small banquet. , please appreciate it!"

Huangjiayin Courtyard, perhaps because of the frequent visits of craftsmen, is said to be a courtyard, but in fact it is more like a relatively open Wubao. The center is a courtyard with towering walls surrounded by mountains and rivers, and there are also some households around it, half of which Most of them are craftsmen, and some are servants working in the surrounding areas.

Therefore, when these craftsmen and servants heard what Huang Chengyan said, they all cheered in unison, gathered around, and followed Huang Chengyan and Fei Qian inside.

The eight hundred cavalrymen brought by Fei Qian did not need Huang Chengyan to give any more instructions. Huang Xu naturally took them to the workshop behind the Yinyuan.

That area is often used by the Huang family for research on various tools and equipment, so it is actually quite large and is suitable for camping.

People in the Huang family took the initiative to help, fetching pots and pans, fetching benches, setting up stoves, setting up tents, and building stables. Basically, they all picked up the work that they could help with. Everyone was willing to help. He was smiling, as if he was preparing for a grand holiday celebration.

Before Fei sneaked in, he glanced at the backyard wall and found that a little head had shrunk back. He suddenly felt that the pressure during this period seemed to be relieved a lot.

Huang Chengyan held Fei Qian's arm and walked towards the courtyard hall. Naturally, some of the core members of the Huang family also followed Huang Chengyan and Fei Qian and walked in.

In the hall, some refreshments have already been arranged. The banquet is the highlight. No matter how important it is, there is no reason for Fei Qian to dismount and participate directly without washing and bathing. Therefore, this hall is only used as a short party. , the purpose is to let everyone know about Fei Qian's current situation.

When Huang Chengyan chose Fei Qian as his son-in-law, some people expressed some slight incomprehension and expressed some of their own judgments about Fei Qian. With their many years of experience, these people made various accurate and precise decisions for Fei Qian. An affirmative conclusion, I feel that even if he is a disciple of Pang Degong, even if he leaves Jingzhou, he cannot change his fate as a branch of the Fei family, and he cannot change his climate. In other words, these superficial things are all illusions and illusions. , are all unrealistic things...

Anyway, it was because he ate more salt that he made a lot of comments both publicly and privately.

But now, these people put bright smiles on their faces, and talked about how much they thought Fei Qian was a young talent at that time, and how much they supported Huang Chengyan's choice at the time...

Among them are Huang Chengyan's clan brothers, Huang Gao and Huang Mengxuan, the one who laughs most cheerfully now.

Fei Qian still vaguely remembered that at the wedding, when he was toasting to the elders, he was nagged by him for a long time...

As for what he said, it was nothing more than that. Regardless of later generations or the Han Dynasty, there are always some people who inexplicably have a sense of superiority, or are very good at finding a sense of superiority.

Like someone standing on a high altar, raising his proud head, emphasizing that Fei Qian has this or that shortcoming, and that he is not good enough in this or that aspect, and firstly, looking at In terms of face, Huang Chengyan, secondly, wanted to encourage young people, and finally stretched out his hand with compassion, as if giving alms. I think these words of mine are high on you, otherwise I would not even bother to say these words...

Fortunately, Fei Qian had been in the workplace of later generations, so he always smiled, listened quietly, and had good etiquette from beginning to end, so Huang Gao didn't find anything wrong.

Of course, Huang Gao didn't just go out of his way to find trouble with Fei Qian, whom he had never met before. The main reason was that he felt that Huang Yueying could have married someone better, or someone who was more in line with his standards, such as Pang Tong...

But I didn't expect Huang Chengyan to settle on Fei Qian.

Therefore, for Huang Tong, who rarely interacts with the Huang family's craftsmen, in his eyes, there is no way out for the Huang family to take the craftsman's path. Only studying the classics is orthodox, because the craftsmen always give people a hand. , there is never any chance to stand alone and gain the title of feudal lord.

Concepts like Huang Tong are still very mainstream now, so Huang Tong has also gained a certain say in the Huang family, representing the voices of some Huang family insiders who are interested in entering the political arena of economics.

Huang Chengyan clapped his hands gently, and everyone immediately fell silent.

Huang Chengyan smiled, looked around, and then said slowly: "My Miannan Huang family, although not famous in the world, has a long history of virtue and is well known to Jingxiang. Now, with the favor of the emperor, I have added a crown and tassel to my family. Fortunately, this is the celebration of the Huang family! Only by plowing and harvesting in spring can we have harvests in autumn. Only by accumulating thick and thin hair can we have our own ribbons. Those who are behind in advancement need to guard against impatience and impetuosity, and be strict in their minds. They do not seek brocades and silks, but strive to advance in their studies. We don’t seek dragon liver and phoenix marrow, but we seek to cultivate our moral character. If we do this, we will not make people laugh at us, and we can also enhance the reputation of my Huang family!”

These words were often said by Huang Gao, a representative of Confucian classics, but today Huang Chengyan felt that what he said seemed to be very good.

A group of young people in the hall quickly stood up and said yes. A group of young men from the Huang family, all of whom looked envious, took advantage of the opportunity to salute and glanced at Fei Qian, which made Fei Qian dumbfounded.

At first glance, it seems that there are not many young men from the Huang family. There are seven or eight in the hall, but they don't seem to have left many names in history...

Huang Chengyan nodded, said a few more words, and finally laughed and said: "Today is a banquet to celebrate the official appointment. You may as well let go of your restraints and drink to your heart's content!"

Everyone responded one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Generally speaking, banquets like Fei Qian's, which are held for promotions and nobility, do not specifically limit the time. It is held from morning to night, and it is normal for it to take three to five days. Guests can come at any time, sit down and start eating at any time. At the same time, as for the dishes, due to the uncertainty of the time, most of them are cold chicken, fish and other cold dishes, and you can add more as you like. Of course, if the guest does not like cold food and wants to eat some barbecue, braised pancakes The chef will also cook hot dishes such as this immediately, striving to ensure that all guests can return home with a high degree of enjoyment.

Because the banquet is relatively long, except for the very beginning, when Fei Qian, as the main person, must attend, the rest of the time is usually organized by other members of the Huang family. Of course, when some important guests arrive, Fei Qian still You need to come out and receive it in person. After all, this is a feast shared by Huang and Fei Qian.

Of course, although there is no distinction between the upper and lower classes of the nobles like in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there are still banquets inside and outside. The children of the nobles are all in the courtyard, and the higher-level figures come to the palace, while the ordinary villagers can only Being able to sit close to the wall of the Huang Family Yin Yuan is enough to go back and brag for a while...

Guo Jia asked: Who is more beautiful, me or Zhou Gongjin of Soochow?

…

Xun Yu was indifferent: I am beautiful.

…

Xun Yu's record is about his appearance, Zhou Yu is about his appearance, but Guo Jia has no record...
