Chapter 457: Deep Origin
"Your Honor and Mrs. Sister-in-law are also welcome."
After the man surnamed Liu finished speaking, he put the box on the table.
The man surnamed Duan on the side also hurriedly offered gifts.
However, Long Bing'er was blushed by this sentence of Mrs. Sister-in-law.
She... she is not a wife.
These people are talking so nonsense!
Long Binger, who was sitting next to Xu Qing, immediately slapped the table, and an obvious crack appeared on the table, and then Long Binger blushed and said coldly: "Get out! Don't let me see you!"
Young people surnamed Liu and young people surnamed Duan were angry when they saw the nobleman's wife, so they didn't dare to speak nonsense immediately. He just said hastily: "Don't be angry, nobleman, calm down, villain, get out now, get out now..."
Having offended the nobleman, they didn't dare to stay in the Huang's house any longer, and ran out of the Huang's house, fearing that the nobleman would anger them after seeing them in the Huang's house.
But until now they still don't understand why the nobleman's wife is so angry.
They didn't do anything out of the ordinary...
Xu Qing looked at the two people who ran out here, then looked at Long Binger who was full of embarrassment, and sighed: "You scared them all out of Huang's house, they ran away now, It will take time to catch them back later if we do something about it."
Long Bing'er snorted: "I don't care, that's your business, who made them talk nonsense?"
Saying that, Long Bing'er turned her head and ignored Xu Qing, but the blush on her face did not go away for a long time.
Soon, an old man Huang, dressed in festive clothes, holding a cane and supported by his concubine, came out of the room slowly.
Mr. Huang first cupped his hands with difficulty and said: "Today, you all came to attend the old man's birthday banquet in the midst of your busy schedule. I thank you here."
The surrounding guests all cupped their hands and said: "I wish Patriarch Huang a long life!"
After the old man returned the gift, he was supported by his concubine and walked to Xu Qing's side, cupped his hands again and said: "I have seen the nobleman, and the nobleman's visit to the humble house today really makes the Huang family shine!"
When the surrounding guests saw this scene, their eyes suddenly showed surprise, and there was a lot of discussion for a while:
"Who is this guy? He actually made Mr. Huang salute himself?"
"I'm afraid the background is not small!"
"The Huang family can be like this, could it be that they are from the capital?"
"I remembered, isn't that the person who fought with Steward Huang and County Magistrate Wang on the main street of Yi County two days ago? The Huang family is so respectful?"
...
Xu Qing looked at Mr. Huang standing in front of the table and said, "I don't like politeness, please sit down."
"Hey, yes." Mr. Huang agreed and sat next to Xu Qing.
Seeing Long Binger sitting next to Xu Qing, Mr. Huang smiled and flattered him, "Your Majesty and Your Madam are really good-looking, they are really a match made in heaven."
Ma'am, it's a respectful title, so that Mr. Huang, who is in his sixtieth year, can be called like this. What are the identities of these people?
And looking at the seating, Mr. Huang, who is today's birthday star, has never sat in the honorable seat, and the young man sitting above the honorable seat.
When Long Binger heard this, she was already ashamed and annoyed, but when she heard these words again, she almost kicked the old man away.
Xu Qing quickly corrected: "No, we are just friends, my wife is pregnant and has not come out this time."
"Hmph!" Long Binger, who was at the side, heard Xu Qing's words, turned her face away and snorted dissatisfiedly.
When Mr. Huang heard what Xu Qing said, he quickly apologized and said: "This old man made a mistake, please calm down the two noblemen, and please calm down the anger of the two noblemen."
Xu Qing looked at Mr. Huang and asked suddenly: "I heard that Xu Chen and the Huang family have a good personal relationship?"
Mr. Huang said: "Returning to the nobleman, brother Xu Chen has indeed helped the Huang family, the Liu family and the Duan family a lot during this time. Speaking of which, the Huang family has been grateful for the nobleman's kindness since then. In the future, the Huang family will I will try my best to repay you for your kindness in nurturing the Huang family."
Xu Qing glanced at Mr. Huang in surprise. This old man, he only asked a question here, as if he had brought the whole family to rely on him.
Invisibly, the distance between the two has been shortened.
Xu Qing smiled and asked: "I like to listen to stories. I don't know what happened between the Huang family and Xu Chen, so that Mr. Huang is full of praise for Xu Chen. Mr. Huang may tell me the details. I'm curious." Very good!"
"It just so happens that today coincides with the old man's birthday banquet, presumably the guests in the mansion are also very curious about the reason."
Mr. Huang said: "Since this is the case, the old man must be respectful rather than obedient."
After speaking, Mr. Huang started to tell the story from the beginning.
Speaking of which, Xu Chen met through the second son of the eldest son of the Huang family, and was later recognized by the eldest son of the Huang family. In addition, Xu Chen also knew etiquette and could speak, so the two chatted very speculatively.
Not long after, the two reached their first cooperation, and the cooperation was perfect.
Until later, there was a second and third time, and even the cooperation of the other two.
In this way, it is familiar.
Xu Qing listened carefully. In his opinion, this is not a story, it is clearly a confession!
Since it is inconvenient to say some things in public, whenever it is mentioned here, it will be replaced by cooperation.
Although Mr. Huang did not specify what kind of cooperation it was, these stories were enough for Xu Qing.
Xu Qing was also surprised, Mr. Huang had a really good memory, regardless of his age, he could remember so many things.
After Xu Qing finished listening, he looked at Mr. Huang and said with a smile, "It seems that the Huang family and Xu Chen really have a deep connection."
Xu Qing didn't hide his own voice, the surrounding guests could hear it.
Mr. Huang smiled and said: "Yes, the Huang family and Brother Xu Chen do have a deep relationship. It is a great honor for the Huang family to meet a nobleman through Brother Xu Chen."
Xu Qing nodded and said: "Master Huang must not know that although my family is quite powerful in the capital, the control over the local area is still too weak. It is rare to meet a talkative person like Patriarch Huang in Fengzhou. I don't know Patriarch Huang Are you interested in working with me?"
When Mr. Huang heard this, his dizzy old eyes suddenly lit up: "The Huang family can't wait for it!"
At this moment, Xu Chen, who was sitting on the other side of Xu Qing, said, "By the way, Master Huang, a month and a half ago, Master Huang asked Xu to help the Huang family wipe out the people who have been entrenched in the south of Fengzhou and have been fighting with the Huang family for a long time." The opposing Rivers and Lakes faction, the Black Tiger Gang, promised Xu Mou ten thousand taels of silver, but he didn’t get paid after the fact, did Master Huang forget it?”
Xu Qing heard Xu Chen's words, looked at the head of the Huang family and said, "Is there such a thing? I don't like to cooperate with people who don't believe what they say."
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Mr. Huang hurriedly said: "It's a misunderstanding! At that time, brother Xu Chen was in a hurry to leave, so he delayed. My Huang family didn't mean to be insincere at all. I will pay the reward right away."
As he spoke, Mr. Huang called his servants and said, "Quickly prepare your pen and ink!"
Soon, the servant brought up the pen and ink, and Mr. Huang immediately wrote a letter with a brush, and then took out his private seal from his cuff and stamped it, saying:
"Brother Xu Chen, I'm really sorry, the cash at the old man's birthday banquet is almost used up today, and the rest of the money is in the bank run by the Huang family. You go to the bank of the Huang family with the letter from the old man. Brother Xu Chen will definitely be paid exactly what he deserves."
