Although Cao Yun had no plans to visit Wazi today, the house could not open the stove on the first night, and everyone had to go to the tavern outside for dinner.

When the official house went out, there was a small river. The embankments were made of bluestone on both sides of the river, and weeping willows were planted along the river. It was very clean. Li Yanqing took his family to walk along the river slowly. He pointed to a courtyard opposite the river and smiled: "It is Qujiang Music House, a school that specializes in music learning. There are about a hundred students, many of which are the daughters of eunuchs. Jiaojiao and Baoniang can go and study."

Jiaojiao couldn't help but pout and muttered in a low voice, "I just jumped out of the fire pit in the capital and pushed me into the tiger's mouth again, so I won't do it!"

Cao Yun heard her muttering and couldn't help but feel angry and funny, "Jiaojiao, I promised my father that you must continue studying in Jingzhao. Whether you are studying at home or outside, you can do whatever you want, but you can't let you herd sheep!"

Cao Jiaojiao didn't say anything, Baoyan pulled her hand, shook her smile and said, "Sister Jiaojiao, can we study together and raise birds together?"

Hearing the latter sentence, a smile suddenly appeared on Jiaojiao's face, "There must be a shop selling birds in the tile shop. Let's go and have a look!"

After walking about two hundred steps along the river, everyone reached the southwest entrance of Qujiang Tizi. Qujiang Tizi ranked second among the five tiles in Jingzhao. The entire tiles cover an area of ​​about two hundred acres. Looking down from a high altitude, the tiles are in a shape of a font, consisting of two parts inside and outside, with eight doors outside. The main entrance is in the north and the southwest entrance is a place for selling flowers, birds, fish and insects. There are not many people and are relatively quiet.

Cao Jiaojiao was hungry and didn't care about going to see the birds for the time being, but she had already found a way to take her baby girl to buy birds when she went home.

After passing through the flower market, the noisy and lively atmosphere immediately rushed towards us. Both sides were filled with shops of all sizes, with people coming and going on the streets, and there were endless streams. At this time, more than a dozen personal soldiers ran forward and stopped pedestrians on both sides. Li Yanqing took his family into the Qujiang Villa Tavern opposite.

The tavern was very big, and the lobby was full of guests, but they did not have to enter the lobby, but walked the stairs next to them and went directly to an Ya Room on the second floor. Two charcoal basins were ordered in Ya Room, making the room warm as spring. They were seven people, plus two wet ladies holding children, a total of nine. The soldiers were dining in the hall, while the rest of the maids were each given 500 cents to go out to eat outside by themselves.

Li Yanqing smiled and waved his hand, "I have ordered the wine and food, and I will deliver it soon. Everyone can sit there!"

Everyone took off their hats and cloaks and sat down at the big table. Two wet girls were holding their children and sitting at the edge. Two maids came in and poured them hot tea. After waiting for a while, three bartenders walked in with large food cages, and delivered dishes like flowing water. Several pots of wine were also delivered.

"Da Shuniang, I want to drink too!" Jiaojiao couldn't help but scream when she saw that her sister had no share of her wine glass.

Cao Yun glared at her, "What kind of wine are you drinking, just drink tea. Look at how well your mother is, she doesn't say anything, you just have a lot of opinions!"

"Bao Niang is a child, of course she can't drink, but she's already grown up and can drink a drink." Jiaojiao added, "During the Chinese New Year, the old man also allowed me to drink a drink."

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Yunniang, today's wine is sweet rice wine. She and Baoniang can drink some of it, it's okay."

After her husband spoke, Cao Yun handed her a wine glass, "Okay! Don't drink too much, just one glass."

Cao Jiaojiao cheered and quickly poured a glass of wine for herself and Baoniang.

At this time, Li Yanqing stood up and said, "Today we have a drink for our family reunion!"

"Cheers!" Everyone cheered and drank together.

Cao Jiaojiao drank the wine in one gulp, but while the eldest sister was unprepared, she secretly poured a glass of wine for herself. She found that her brother-in-law was watching her pour wine. Jiaojiao blushed and she quickly made a face with a smile.

At this time, Zhang Ying's voice came from outside the door, "Tongzhi and his family are having a meal, so it is not convenient for outsiders to disturb you!"

"I am not an outsider, but also a colleague of Li Tongzhi. I came to toast him with a glass of wine. How could I keep people from thousands of miles away?"

This seemed to be the voice of the prefect Yang Xuzhou. Li Yanqing was stunned. He picked up the wine glass and stood up and walked out. He opened the door and saw Yang Xuzhou and two officials standing outside the door with wine.

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "How come the prefect Yang is here?"

Yang Xuzhou seemed to have drunk a few more drinks and his face was flushed. He yelled: "This restaurant is run by my brother-in-law. Come and support it. I just heard from the yamen runners that he saw Li Tongzhi and his family, so he came over to say hello!"

"So that's it, come on! I'll respect Magistrate Yang for a cup, and I'll do it first!"

Li Yanqing raised his glass and drank it all, shook the wine glass. Yang Xuzhou also drank the wine in the glass, and asked again with a smile: "Why don't your brother and sister come out to meet me?"

Li Yanqing was immediately displeased. How did he speak? Can you see other people's wife and daughter casually in such an occasion?

Zhang Ying beside him snorted heavily and clenched his fists. Li Yanqing quickly winked Zhang Ying, and smiled at the two officials behind Yang Xuzhou, saying, "Wu Shenjun and Zhang Zhubu are here to toast too!"

The two officials quickly raised their glasses and said, "We are here to pay tribute to Tongzhi!"

"You're welcome, I've caused trouble for both of you in the past few months."

At this time, Yang Xuzhou staggered into the room, "I'll go and give a glass of wine to my brother and sister!"

Zhang Ying was furious and grabbed Yang Xuzhou's neck, dragged him out, and pushed him out a few steps away.

Yang Xuzhou was also angry, "Li Tongzhi, what's wrong with your subordinate? He provoked me repeatedly and thought I had no temper?"

Li Yanqing said coldly: "Master Yang, you are a little drunk today, go and have a rest first!"

He winked at the two officials next to him. The two officials secretly scolded Yang Xuzhou for being rude after drinking, and quickly stepped forward, one left and one right to set up Yang Xuzhou, "Tongzhi, Master Yang drank a few more drinks today, and he was a little confused. Please don't blame him!"

Li Yanqing nodded with a smile, "Take Magistrate Yang to have a good rest!"

"Who said I'm drunk too much, Li Tongzhi, I haven't had a drink with my younger brother and sister yet!"

The two officials wanted to take off their socks and block the prefect's stinky mouth. They dragged him into another room with force.

Li Yanqing snorted coldly, turned around and patted Zhang Ying on the shoulder, "Go down to have a meal! There is no need here for the time being."

"Go to arrange two brothers to come up!"

Zhang Ying quickly walked down, and Li Yanqing returned to his desk and sat down. Cao Yun asked with a smile: "What's going on outside?"

"Grandpa Yang, Jingzhao, has drunk too much wine and has come here to talk nonsense. I have asked other officials to drag him away."

"Will your husband offend him if he speaks to him like this?"

Li Yanqing shook his head and said disdainfully: "It's not that I offended him, but that he offended me, look at it! He will definitely come to apologize to me tomorrow morning."

Sisi smiled and said, "It seems that the husband is quite powerful in Jingzhao Mansion!"

Li Yanqing smiled and waved his hand, "The official power in Jingzhao is just average. If you really say it, you were very powerful when you were in Jiayu County. It is a perfect saying, and it is nostalgic!"

Everyone laughed out loud, Cao Yun pointed at her husband and sighed: "You! You are so unpromising. You even miss the days of the eighth-rank sesame official."

Everyone talked about interesting things in Jiayu County again, and the atmosphere began to become lively. Everyone drank a few more glasses of wine. Jiaojiao and Baoniang were already full. The two discussed going to buy birds. Li Yanqing quickly called two personal soldiers to accompany them.

At this time, Hu Qing'er brought a glass of wine to Li Yanqing, smiled and said, "I'll give you a glass of wine to my brother."

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Your glass of wine is not delicious, tell me! What do you want to do?"

"Brother, you promised during the last Northern Expedition. I was so bored at home!"

"How are your flying stones and flying knives practicing?"

"I have been practicing hard and I have never dared to leave for a day."

Cao Yun next to him smiled and said, "Qing'er said it well. She is really working hard and hasn't had a day off. Please give her a chance!"

Li Yanqing thought for a while and said, "In a few days, there will be a competition in the army, and you can also participate. If everyone recognizes you, then you can join the army as a general!"

"Really?" Qing'er asked in surprise.

Li Yanqing nodded and smiled, "You'd better show me your skills now."

Qing'er picked up two wine glasses casually and swung them into the air. A sharp and sharp dagger came out of his hand, penetrated the two wine glasses in the air, and nailed them firmly to the wooden pillar more than ten steps away.
