The promotion banquet in Li's residence was scheduled for twenty days later.It's already February at this time, even though Kyoto is located in the north, it can't resist the exuberant spring.In the past few days, even the snow on the mountain tops around Kyoto has begun to melt, the willow trees have sprouted, and various small wildflowers are blooming along the path.Except for the occasional cool breeze pouring into the neck, which makes people shiver unconsciously, the weather is really warmer.

Mrs. Li made a special trip to the big temple outside the city to find the temple to pray for, and coincidentally, it happened to be the day when Li Heng took a bath.After deciding on a date, Mrs. Li was looking forward to sending out a post, wishing that the day of the banquet would be the moment she opened her eyes.During the waiting period, Xie Xuan got along more and more harmoniously with the people in Li's residence, and Mrs. Li almost regarded him as her own child and didn't talk about it; one day when Li Heng came back early, he found Xie Xuan in the study Looking at the young and mature Xie Xuan, I feel that this kid's insight is far superior to that of his peers, so he made a decision to check Xie Xuan's articles every day and discuss with him.In Li Heng's heart, Xie Xuan is the dusty night pearl, and he happened to be the craftsman who accidentally picked up the treasure, carefully wiped it, made it shine, and became famous all over the world.For some reason, Li Heng felt a strong premonition that he would have to rely on Xie Xuan in the future.

In the eager anticipation of everyone, it finally arrived on February [-]th.

According to the rules of Zhuangyuan Building for banquets, the chef moved into Li's residence two days ago, and on the [-]th morning, the people in Li's residence tasted the special breakfast noodles cooked by the master, fried buns with dried shrimps.At this time Li Zhiyuan was changing into the new clothes that he sent a few days ago, with two small buns on his hair, and two pearls on the buns, which looked more playful.

While Li Zhiyuan kept stuffing fried buns into his mouth, Xie Xuan stepped into the dining room.

"Brother...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu." Li Zhiyuan finally swallowed the pan-fried bun whole, "I wanted to wait for you, but you came late." Li Zhiyuan didn't care When I went to Xie Xuan, I secretly ate first, and I didn't know what to do.

Xie Xuan entered the door and said "Morning" to Mrs. Li, and teasingly pulled Li Zhiyuan's small tug, and then sat down beside him. "I just discussed yesterday's article with Uncle Li. How is it? Is it delicious?"

Li Zhiyuan didn't speak, what answered him was a fat face stuffed with buns.The atmosphere in the house is getting better and better, and the rules are less. Xie Xuan looked at Li Zhiyuan's steamed bun face, and couldn't help but feel a bit of teasing in his heart. Before he could react, he had already pinched Li Zhiyuan's fat face, holding back Li Zhiyuan almost bit him, and then let go with a smile.

Although the banquet was held in the evening, officials and wives brought their children over just after noon.Among them, as long-term enemies, the two sisters-in-law of Lin Chi's family were the first to come. It was almost when the Li family had just finished their lunch that they heard the news.

Mrs. Li let Li Heng enter the room to rest, and went to deal with the two distinguished guests by herself. "Sister-in-law never said that she would come so early, but has she ever used the meal? My sister just ran out, and it was all made by the chef of the Zhuangyuan Building. If my sister doesn't mind, I'll ask them to make some again, so I can give my sister a fresh taste. "

Mrs. Lin said this to Mrs. Li when Lin Chi was promoted a few days ago. At that time, she was not as tough as Mrs. Li because of her relationship. Lin Chi missed the chance of promotion; Heng left the capital by himself, leaving a lot of business behind, and took a good opportunity to let her family husband pick up the leak.In this way, when Lin Chi was promoted, she personally sent invitations to Mrs. Li, showing off.

Sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, Mrs. Lin Chi's face became a bit ugly, she endured it forcefully, and said, "Don't bother my sister, my sister has been at home. My sister didn't come out to fight in the last year A few hands, today, my sister wants to play a few hands with my younger sister, so I came earlier."

"Sister, don't worry, since I'm here, my sister will definitely play a few games with my sister today, but now I'm missing one, I'm afraid I'll have to wait a little longer, Mrs. Ninghou said that I will arrive early today, please take the children with me Move to the backyard, have two cups of tea, and when Madam arrives, the game can begin." Madam Li smiled at Yan Yan, her eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.She and Mrs. Lin Chi were both from a scholarly family, and her father's official position was higher, but later, when the court changed, he retired to protect Mingzhe.When I first married Li Heng Xuxian, I was ridiculed all the time. After my father stepped down, ladies from all walks of life and the wives of your family even distanced themselves from her. Only Mrs. Ninghou treated her sincerely, and she was naturally I can't swallow this breath.

Mrs. Lin naturally knew that she had always been on good terms with Mrs. Ninghou, and when it came to this, she stopped entangled and the group went back to the backyard.

During the chat between the women, time flies by, but when there are two cups of tea, there are more guests in Li's house, and there are also many more children.Those who can be brought to Li's residence are mostly boys, and everyone knows each other, so they follow Li Zhiyuan to the backyard without hesitation.

In the backyard, Xie Xuan was sitting in the small pavilion on the pond, holding a copy of "Zuo Zhuan" in his hand and resting it on his head. Compared with the dozen or so children in front of him who were playing bamboo horses and Cuju, he looked out of place.And he himself didn't want to appear in the backyard at all, Xie Xuan was willing to hide in the study and have a tryst with the biographers.If I hadn't made an appointment with Li Zhiyuan a few days ago, I would have been helping him all the time. Lin Hengzhi and Lin Hengyuan came early again today. I was afraid that the little monkey would be bullied again without him watching. He would never show up.After all, at his current age, mixing with children is more like an old mother with children.

Li Zhiyuan is indeed not a worry-free person, he just changed into new clothes in the morning, and when he first got on his body, he looked like a little beast that had just finished grooming, holding his proud head up, so that others could only look at him but not touch them.Now I am riding bamboo horses, playing tops, and kicking cuju among the children. I am so happy. I took off my vest and threw it to someone.Tired from playing, he ran to Xie Xuan, blushed, and said, "Brother, I'm thirsty." Xie Xuan then offered him a cup of warm tea and fed it to him.

Children drink water quickly, and within a short time, a pot of tea will bottom out.Everyone around went to Mrs. Li's place, seeing Li Zhiyuan dancing happily, Xie Xuan put the book on the pavilion and got up to heat the water by himself, fearing that he might not be in time for Li Zhiyuan to drink.

The Li residence is not big, and Xie Xuan left quickly. It took only a quarter of an hour to go back and forth, but when he came back, he saw a few children wrestling together from a distance. He walked two steps quickly, and after another look, he saw Lin Hengyuan Grabbing Li Zhiyuan's collar, Li Zhiyuan and Lin Hengyuan were much different in height. At this time, he was grabbed by both hands, and his feet were in the air, while Lin Hengzhi was about to punch him up.

The action was always faster than expected, Xie Xuan had no time to react, and instinctively smashed the water bottle in his hand to Lin Hengzhi's feet.
