Chapter 155
Zhang Twelve is very happy today.

Because he received the first invitation letter after coming to Datang, although he didn't really want to go...

But does this mean that his current status has improved a lot?He is no longer the book boy who only used Lu Yuner's light to attend the poetry meeting...

This invitation letter was sent by Wang Chengen, the magistrate of Liangzhou, inviting everyone to attend the birthday banquet of Mrs. Wang—that is, Wang Ba and Wang Yunshi's mother.

Originally, his relationship with Wang Ba was very bad, although Wang Ba kindly visited him last time when he escaped from "Yaoshan Four Eagles" - but who knows if it's true or not?

And ever since she pissed off Wang Yunshi once at the poetry meeting, this woman seems to be full of hostility towards him. There are only two of them in a family of four, and both of them were offended. Is it really okay for him to go to the birthday banquet? ?
But don't make any mistakes, if he fights with Wang Ba's family again, it will be a big deal - one person singles out the prefect's family of four, it sounds very stupid...

Zhang Twelve doesn't want to be famous anymore, and he is famous in this way...

Zhang Twelve raised his concerns, meaning that it would be fine to let Chen Qiaoxi and Lu Fujing go, and he should not join in the fun.

But the two women didn't even have time to think, and directly rejected him.

Because in the eyes of the two of them, this is the magistrate showing his favor to him. If he doesn't go, wouldn't it be a shame for him, how can he hang around in Liangzhou in the future?

Besides, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Those who can receive this invitation letter are all famous people in Liangzhou City. How many people are eager to go but have no chance. Wouldn't it be too stupid for him not to go?

But Zhang Twelve curled his lips disapprovingly, thinking that I have been in charge of the Lu Family Restaurant for so long, and I have not established relationships with other merchants. Isn't it so good?

But these are not what he cares about the most, what he cares about most is Wang Ba!

Hearing this, the two girls even gave him a disdainful glance. With his personality, would he still be afraid of Wang Ba?Every time I meet Wang Ba, isn't it always Wang Ba who gets hurt?
Moreover, at worst, he would just hide when he sees Wang Ba. During the birthday banquet, Wang Ba, as the host, will definitely be very busy and disciplined, so he doesn't have much time to care about him...

When Zhang Twelve heard that the matter had come to this point, he seemed to have no reason not to go, so he had to accept his fate. In fact, what he worried most in his heart was Wang Yunshi, whom he had pissed off, because when he saw her last time, her face was so pale. not so good……

Never underestimate the means of an angry woman, Zhang Twelve thinks so...

…………

Of course, the birthday banquet was held at the magistrate's mansion, and it was the first time for Zhang Twelve to come here. You don't need to look at the height of the mansion walls or the size of the mansion gate. Just look at the two big stone lions outside the gate, and you will know that the magistrate's mansion is better than Guo Shou's. In the future, life will not be nourished at 01:30...

After getting off the carriage, Chen Qiaoxi whispered to him who the people in front were and so on. He heard that the names were all famous people, or civil and military officials in the city. Zhang Twelve saw one from a distance. A man with the appearance of a butler stood at the door, greeted every guest with a smile, checked their invitation letters, accepted the congratulatory gifts one by one, and registered them in the register.

Chen Qiaoxi also asked Lu San to move the ten altars of spirits out of the carriage, and Zhang Twelve felt a pain in the flesh...

You know, although spirits are five taels of silver per catty, the customers who can drink spirits every time are the customers who spend the most in the restaurant, so the actual price of a catty of spirits is much higher than five taels of silver, so ten The price of a catty of spirits is more than one hundred taels, and it is still in a state of price but no market. Even if the average person has money, they may not be able to buy it...

Although Zhang Twelve has never met Wang Zhifu, but he only sees his pair of children - he can't like it no matter what, and he will give such a big gift as soon as he makes a move. Zhang Twelve is not such a generous person...

According to Zhang Twelve's own thinking, he is reluctant to give money, so it is better to write a birthday poem with his own hand, which is full of sincerity and unconventional. The most important thing is that poetry is the most important thing for him. Ah, my mind is full, but I have nowhere to display my worries...

Hearing his idea, the two women agreed very much, which means, we give wine, you give poetry—it is also possible!
Zhang Twelve quit after listening to it, gave away all the spirits, and asked labor and capital to send poems, a loss-making business, quit!
So this congratulatory gift is naturally only these ten altars of spirits...

The man who looked like a butler naturally knew Chen Qiaoxi and Lu Fujing, he greeted with a smile: "Miss Chen, Miss Lu, welcome!"

Chen Qiaoxi handed over her and Lu Fujing's invitation letter, turned her head and smiled at Zhang Twelve, and then dragged Lu Fujing in.

Zhang Twelve also passed the invitation letter in a decent manner, but he couldn't just go in like Chen Qiaoxi, but asked Lu San to bring the spirits over.

If they don't bring congratulatory gifts, people will still think that they come to eat and drink for nothing!

The people around looked at the ten white round altars and immediately started discussing them.

One must know that in Liangzhou City, those who can get an invitation from the magistrate are either rich or noble, and this opportunity is not easy to come by. Who hasn't tried his best to send a special gift to win the favor of the magistrate?
Sending money was too vulgar, and it was inconvenient to send it face to face, so in addition to precious calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, gold and silver jewelry, the gifts they chose also included some antiques.

But look at the appearance and texture of these white jars - don't they look like some kind of antiques?This face-to-face young man is too out of tune, why does he look down on the magistrate too much for sending such rags over here?
A group of people looked at Zhang Twelve with weird eyes...

One can only blame Zhang Twelve for being too low-key at ordinary times. People in Liangzhou City only hear his name but don't see him, so they think so.

But the housekeeper is different. Although he has never met Zhang Twelve, he can recognize the words on the invitation letter, and there are no ordinary people who can get the invitation letter, let alone Zhang Shi who has been in the limelight in Liangzhou City recently. two.

"Master Zhang, just put the congratulatory gift here, please come inside!"

Nodding to the housekeeper, Zhang Twelve had just raised his legs to enter the door when he heard the housekeeper say to the bookkeeper: "The Lu family gave ten catties of spirits!"

As soon as these words came out, the people who were talking about Zhang Twelve just now were dumbfounded: What?This is hard liquor?Ten catties?
Needless to say the preciousness of this spirit, they all know it very well, but they don't know who that young man is, how can he send ten catties of spirit instead of the Lu family?
Suddenly, the name of the person who was in the limelight in Liangzhou recently appeared in their minds: Could this be that person?
