The major general is at the top, the bamboo horse is at the bottom

The weather is getting colder and colder.Wu Kan huddled in the room all day long, wishing he could curl himself up into a small ball, as if he could resist the cold wind in this way.The days are just such an ordinary stroll, and it is already the end of December in a blink of an eye.

He remembered that when he was studying abroad, those people attached great importance to the festival at the end of December, but he did not accept such cultural influence, so he didn't care much about it. For him, only the Chinese New Year is the real farewell to the old Welcome.

It's just that today I received an invitation letter from Shuai's mansion, hoping that he will attend the banquet of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new in the new year.

The moment he received the invitation, Wu Kan was actually shocked, because as far as he knew, Zhang Zhounan had always hated this kind of culture, so why did he suddenly start to learn the festivals of foreigners?

It seems that there are many people who have the same idea as him, because Huang Yuancen ran over to look for Wu Kan that afternoon.The words were also full of disbelief, "Xiqing, do you know what's going on?"

This was beyond Wu Kan's expectation. He frowned and asked, "Hasn't Zhang Zhounan done this before?"

Huang Yuancen looked at Wu Kan's greatly changed room. It seems that Wu Kan has been tossing around for a while these days, and the current room style is more Western-style. It's not that it doesn't match the Wu family's house, but there is such a Chinese-style building. A room still seemed a bit weird, he suppressed the discomfort rising in his heart, sat on the soft chair and replied: "How could it be done."

"You said that he didn't do it in the past few years, but he picked it at this juncture this year. The commander-in-chief passed away not long ago, so if you hold a big banquet like this, don't you want others to poke your spine?"

Wu Kan sat up straight after hearing the words, and asked again: "You said he hasn't done anything in the past few years? Only this year?"

Huang Yuancen took a sip of his tea, as if wondering why Wu Kan wanted to confirm this question again, so he repeated it again strangely, "Yes, only this year."

Wu Kan lowered his head thoughtfully after hearing the words and continued to read.

But who is Huang Yuancen? The two of them have already obtained a tacit understanding during the long time of getting along. When he saw Wu Kan's expression, he knew that it was his own thinking.He quickly stood up and approached, and asked, "Xiqing, tell me the truth, do you know something?"

Wu Kan's hand flipping the book was taken aback for a moment, he looked up at Huang Yuancen's face who was approaching suddenly, his familiar eyes were full of pleading, he said, "Why do you have time to come to me today?"

"Didn't I miss you?" Huang Yuancen laughed.

Wu Kan didn't speak, and continued to stare at him expressionlessly.

Sure enough, after a while Huang Yuancen couldn't hold it anymore, and said: "Okay, I said, don't look at me like this. I was panicking... It wasn't Zhang Zhounan who made such a sudden move to make everyone Are you feeling very uneasy, you became famous because of that banquet a while ago, and I have a good relationship with you, so you have become the target of public criticism, and you want me to inquire about the news."

Wu Kan still didn't speak, Huang Yuancen felt terrified when he looked at him, and continued: "I know that because of that scene... no, because that Gu Zhiyuan got angry with you a while ago, but I'm also worried about you. .”

"I don't understand either. You said that at a time like this, everyone should be in danger. As a result, a group of people are still gossiping and paying endlessly."

Wu Kan listened, and when he heard Huang Yuancen start complaining, the corners of his mouth twitched, feeling that his friend's talk hadn't changed.Although Huang Yuancen said he was talking to himself, he was paying attention to Wu Kan's movements all the time. Seeing him like this, he knew that Wu Kan's attitude was loose.So he hurriedly climbed up the pole, and said with a shy face, "You think so, Xiqing?"

"Yes yes yes." Wu Kan had nothing to do with Huang Yuancen's thick skin.I had no choice but to respond, "But you are asking the wrong person, of course I don't know why Zhang Zhounan suddenly held this banquet."

"That's right, I already knew you didn't know." Huang Yuancen showed such an expression, "They still asked me to ask. So my purpose is actually to find you~ Don't be angry with me, Xiqing. "

Wu Kan closed the book and said, "I'm not angry with you, I know you're doing it for my own good, and I'm not that ignorant."

Huang Yuancen curiously took the book and flipped through it. When he opened it, he found that it was all in English. His eyes turned dark when he looked at it, "You can understand what this is, Xiqing.... You really don't know what to do... ...don't know me well!"

Wu Kan glanced over, and Huang Yuancen really stopped.

He snatched the book from Huang Yuancen, "What do you know, this is a book I brought back from abroad. It also contains my translation."

In fact, he was a little guilty at this time, because he always felt that he had found some reasons why Zhang Zhounan held this banquet, but that reason was too shocking, causing a storm in his heart, but he could only suppress it secretly.Continue to joke with Huang Yuancen.

The book was turned to his translator, and the first sentence was——

You are like the night, with solitude and stars.

Zhang Zhounan no longer remembers the last time he rested.Nowadays, Wa Kingdom's actions are getting more and more out of bounds, like knowing that the three northeastern provinces have changed their leaders and made a deliberate temptation.He knew he couldn't show his cowardice, so he kept fighting back forcefully.But it can't continue to be consumed like this, he has been so busy with this matter for a while.

It wasn't until I looked up that I realized that the new year was quietly approaching.He rubbed his eyes, and asked the adjutant next to him, "Is the Western New Year coming soon?"

"Yes, young commander." The adjutant bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"..." Zhang Zhounan was silent for a while, then continued, "Have we not held a banquet for a long time?"

"Yes, young commander." The adjutant faintly felt that he had guessed Zhang Zhounan's purpose, so he began to persuade him, "Young general, now is really not the time to hold a banquet. The general died not long ago...now everyone is staring at Zhang Zhounan. What about you, holding a banquet now, isn't it a joke...?"

Zhang Zhounan clicked his tongue, leaned back, and fell on the back of the chair, saying: "Those little bastards, haven't they enough for me to feed them recently? Are you still staring at me?"

The adjutant lowered his head, not daring to speak any more.So Zhang Zhounan said: "That's the deal, you can post for me when the time comes, and invite the younger generation...everyone you can invite. Make it bigger. And remember to make the room warmer Son. Do you remember clearly?"

The adjutant didn't dare to answer any more, and only whispered, "Yes."
