Zhangjia biscuits shop

The days passed day by day. For the young master of the Su Mansion, this year's twelfth lunar month has been extremely long. He is used to the busy life in the biscuit shop. Now that he is free, he feels that something is missing. Staying in the mansion He was uncomfortable at all, as if his arms and legs didn't belong to him anymore. It would be okay to look for Bai Xingjian on weekdays, but now Ye Tianxiang is more strict in guarding him, and he doesn't want Su Qi's depression to affect Bai Xingjian. To keep it simple, I just threatened and lured Su Qi not to visit too often, but Baililan was happy to see the jokes of Dali Siqing, so naturally he would not make Su Qi happy.

So Su Qi returned to his old debauchery style. He was drunk every day in Yanliu Township, West Street, and he couldn't think about it. Even the housekeeper couldn't help hesitating to persuade, "Master, you'd better... continue to eat sesame seed cakes..." Even if you are malnourished, it's better than humiliating yourself like this every day. This new year is approaching, if the master of the Su family sees , How could he not have peeled off Su Qi's skin!

Su Qi hugged Jiu Ji from left to right, and tasted all kinds of Hujiu, Baijiu, Vegetarian, and Meat wines. Hearing what the butler said, he just rolled his eyes lazily, and said, "Why don't I go? They drove me away. ..." The butler was taken aback, but before he understood the meaning, he saw his young master lying in the arms of Jiu Ji who was closest to him, crying unconsciously, and kept cursing, "Zhang Ergou, you bastard!" Heartless, I don't owe you anything, young master, you don't want me..."

The housekeeper's face was dark, and the beauties around her were even more confused, unable to understand what it meant.

One of them hesitated to guess, "Could it be that Young Master Su was dumped by a girl?" The other threw a handkerchief over, "How can it be, I'm afraid the guy at the biscuit shop didn't know Young Master Su's identity and bullied our Young Master Su!"

Su Qi was sobbing in the soft arms, thinking what do you know, people just kicked me out because they knew my identity!

Alas, the history books say that in the winter of Yixin's 12th year, when the new year was approaching, Dali Temple Minister was in despair. He spent the longest and most difficult half month of his life until his parents visited the Dali Temple Minister in person on New Year's Eve. Mansion, the young and old of the Su family had a reunion dinner together.

Because his parents are coming, Su Qi naturally has to act like he is, he will not go out on the 27th and [-]th of the twelfth lunar month. The servants are preparing for the New Year's Eve party.

The Su family is actually not a thriving population. The former Prime Minister Su Qiaomo only has two sons and two daughters, not to mention Su Ying who has been missing for many years. Among the other children, the eldest son Su Jing has only one son Su Qi, and the second son Su He has a pair of dragons and phoenixes. Daughter Su Hui has two sons, so there are three generations in total. There are only nine or ten people in the real Su family, and the rest are daughters-in-law and son-in-law with different surnames.Usually everyone lives separately, but on New Year's Eve, they take turns to go to the family to get together. This year, it's Su Qi's turn to sit in the house.

Because of such a grand festival, Su Qi naturally did not dare to be negligent. He hadn't thought about the current state of Zhang's biscuit shop for several days. It's just that sometimes in the middle of the night when his mind was finally free, he would suddenly remember Zhang Dabing and Zhang Yuanchen came alone.Just thinking about it, I just shook my head, trying to figure out what else to prepare for the reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve this year: whether my aunt’s children’s lucky money is prepared, whether my grandfather’s favorite boxwood cup has daily snow water Zhuan, did the grandmother's memorial tablet come from the old home...

In fact, he is not responsible for these matters, but now Su Qi feels aggrieved, and would rather put in some effort to take care of it by himself, so as to forget about that heartless Zhang Yuanchen.

Finally, on New Year's Eve, the housekeeper thumped his old waist and finally got through it, while directing the servants to welcome the carriages and horses in front of the door.

All of the Su family were well-dressed and suave. Su Qi was dressed low-key, with a red burqa over a white gown. He stood at the entrance of the mansion to welcome guests. Compared with a group of Su family peacocks, he was almost drowned in gold and jade. Color hit.

Su Jing and his wife hadn't seen their son for several months, and even with their uncles and aunts, they were a family, so they didn't feel restrained. When they were all there, they all sat in the front hall together, and the men and women talked together. Everyday.

Mother Su looked at her son with pity in her heart, and she knew that his son had lost weight in the past two months, his chin was pointed, and his face was not looking very good, so she pulled her son over and pinched his handsome face, saying distressedly : "Why, lost so much weight? Could it be this reunion dinner?"

Su Qi smiled and said it was all right.

Su's mother was obviously worried. No matter how old her son was, she frowned and said, "Don't hide it from mother. Why can't mother not see that you have something on your mind? Don't say you are so old this year." When you grow up, but you don't have a family yet, there are no caring maids in the house, if you have someone in your heart, you can hurry up, if you don't, you have to take care of yourself."

Su Qi was taken to heart by these words, his nose was a little sore, he thought that he hadn't heard such caring words for a long time, afraid of losing his composure, he just hummed and changed the topic.

Unexpectedly, Su Jing came over suddenly, looked at his son, and said, "Look at you, I heard that you didn't go to court a few months ago on vacation, is it true?"

Su Qi could only nod.

Su Jing snorted, "You kid is at ease in your own mansion, but you never thought of your parents, who never told us what happened. We finally got together this time, why don't you explain to me? "

Su Qi's face was a bit perplexed, if he said that his legs and feet were broken, his parents would have to check them, he must not be deceived, but if he was telling the truth, how could he reassure his parents?He hesitated for a while.

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Su Jing's expression sank three points, and she was about to continue to make trouble, but was stopped by Su's mother, and said softly, "Don't force your son when it's the Chinese New Year, he knows it well when he's such an adult. Not to mention, it must make sense.”

Su Jing was so persuaded by his wife, so she had no choice but to sigh, and said, "Zixuan, you are also 26, and you will be 27 after the new year. I don't care if you marry a wife, but you live longer every year." It’s been over, what’s this called? I’ve heard a little bit about your story. It’s said that you were on vacation when you were unfortunately dropped from your job and broke your leg. Only the emperor is willing to reconcile you, if you want me to believe it, it is absolutely impossible, but since you don't want to tell the truth, then that's fine, just deal with it yourself." After that, I didn't mention it, and went to Su Hui Look at the nephew.

The Su family's reunion dinner was naturally lively and lively, and the people's voices were festive. The butler, who was so busy that his back was sore and his legs hurt, also forgot his fatigue at this time, and happily ordered the servant to serve the food quickly.

Only Su Qi was persuaded by his parents so much that he couldn't feel at ease eating a good meal. When he raised his eyes, he saw two conspicuous empty seats in front of the big round table, one was the grandmother's spirit card, and the other was the empty seat of little aunt Su Ying. Every year on New Year's Eve, there are two places that must be reserved on the dinner table. For a while, I think of Zhang Dabing and his son in the dilapidated shack, and I don't care about the uncles and aunts recommending the young ladies of various families to him, so I am always restless.

Su's mother looked at it and poked Su Jing with her elbow. Su Jing coughed and said in a low voice, "Forget it, Qi'er has always been stubborn. If he is like this, let him go." Su's mother nodded and gave Su the chess bowl. A fish with chopsticks passed by without saying anything.

The Su family ate lively until midnight, including supper and tea tasting. They were very lively in the Su residence. They didn't say goodbye in twos or two until the middle of the night, or settled down directly in the guest room of the Su residence.Su Qi originally thought that his parents would definitely stay, but Su Jing just looked at him seriously, and finally left with Su's mother.Su Qi immediately understood in his heart that it was his father who wanted to take care of his own affairs, so he welcomed his father and mother to the carriage outside the door, told him to be careful on the road, and watched the carriage leave gratefully.

After sending off the guests, Su Qi went back to his own courtyard alone. He drank a lot of wine at the reunion dinner, but now the cold wind blew away a lot of the alcohol, feeling empty in his stomach, with severe pain in his head, and not sleepy.

He raised his head and looked around, and suddenly ran back to the kitchen to steal two bottles of wine, and climbed up the ladder to the roof of his bedroom with ease, sat on the tile, and began to drink alone facing the night.

The ladder leading to the roof was built by himself, because Su Qi's bedroom is directly east of Su Mansion, and from the roof, one can see the lights of the West Market in the distance. Drinking here all night, but now it has become a heartbroken place, he laughed at himself, and took a big gulp of wine from the mouth of the wine bottle.

When he was half drunk, Su Qi suddenly heard the sound of tiles churning, and he didn't forget to frown even when he was dizzy. Seeing a large black shadow in front of him, he didn't react, and couldn't help but shudder all of a sudden.

Zhang Yuanchen stood in front of him with a blank expression on his face.

It took Su Qi a long time to recognize him, and he thought that he had seen a ghost. It is rare for a Bodhisattva to think of this person when he is so spiritual, and he appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but reach out and touch, yo, It's still hot, and it looks like a real person.Then he grinned foolishly and shouted, "Cousin is late, the Su family's reunion dinner has already been eaten..."
