Chapter 5 The Birth of the Four Treasures (1)(2/2)

"Why exactly?"

"Why?" The butcher shop owner snorted coldly, "Haven't you heard? The Shi family, the largest noble family in Ruyin, gave birth to a young son. It was the day when seven-color clouds appeared in the sky last month. The Shi family had a little boy.

Lord, I am very happy. His family was originally very grand, and the child came with a seven-color cloud, so he was

They think it is a once-in-a-lifetime sign. Therefore, the Shi family will have a big celebration. Tomorrow is the full moon, and all the prominent people in Ruyin County will go to celebrate. I heard that there are still people coming from Luoyang. The Shi family has prepared for this in advance.

The hotels, butcher shops, vegetable markets, and fruit markets in the city have all been taken over by the Shi family, and no takeout is allowed for three days."

Shu An first heard that the young master of the Shi family was also born on the day when seven-colored clouds appeared in the sky, and that he was born on the same day as his son, the daughter of the Han family. He was very surprised, but after hearing what the butcher shop owner said behind him, he was very angry.

Said: "Is it only allowed for his family to eat meat and not other families?"

The shopkeeper of the butcher shop said: "This family is a well-known noble family. It has always looked down on the poor family and never interacted with the common people from the poor family. On that day, all the noble families in Ruyin will come to his house. As for whether the people from the poor family can eat wine and meat."

, they don’t have time to take care of it.”

Shu An is no stranger to the Shi family. This is the largest family in Ruyin. It has been a public minister for many generations. The owner Shi Hui inherited his father's title - Guangwu Township Marquis. He also holds the position of a powerful general and has several relatives.

He served in Luoyang, the capital. Of course, in the Jin Dynasty, these miscellaneous generals

All over the country, those who are named generals do not necessarily lead troops to charge on the battlefield. Some are just a false title. Even civil servants are given the title of such-and-such general, and the same is true for local officials. If a certain prefect is not given the title

The title of general is very shameless among their circle of friends.

The Shi family has extensive land, and one of the fields is right next to the Shu family and the Han family. However, from planting to harvesting, there are dedicated people to take care of it, and the owner of the Shi family never cares about it.

Although Shu An was angry, he had no choice but to return home and explain the matter to his father.

Dr. Shu heard that it was the Shi family. He thought about it and asked, "Is the owner of the Shi family called Shi Hui?"

"Yes, otherwise, which one else?"

"It's easy if it's his family." Dr. Shu smiled confidently, "Well, I'll write a letter and you take it to Shi's house tomorrow and give it to Shi Hui, asking him to give you some food and wine when you come back.

The family, Roshan Wine Sea, shouldn’t care about us at all.”

Shu An was puzzled: "Just write a letter... and it will work?"

"Of course, when I was in Taixue, this Shi Hui was my student."

"He is from a wealthy noble family, but he looks down upon us, a common people from a humble family. Scholars and common people don't intermarry or socialize with each other. I go to beg him, but if he doesn't agree, won't he look down upon us even more?"

"Hey, what's so shameful about this? We just bought some food and wine from his family, and it's not like we didn't give him money. I've been teaching him for several years, but I don't have any face at all. Besides, let him have a wedding with a wealthy family.

Are we allowed to hold a happy event for our poor family? As for the vegetables, we have them in the garden, we just share some wine and meat with his family."

Shu An got up very early the next day, and arrived at the door of Shi's house just after midnight. He explained his purpose to the gatekeeper and handed over a letter. When the gatekeeper went in to report, he only heard the person in charge inside say: "Send out those poor people."

People, what kind of food and wine do you want to eat?"

Shu An was so angry outside that he gritted his teeth.

Then the doorman said, "He said he had a letter for the head of the family."

This sentence really worked. After a while, the servant came out, carrying a small jar of wine, about four or five kilograms of meat, and said with a smile: "My master said, please go back and say hello to your father for my master. When you have time, my master

I will definitely pay a visit to Dr. Shu. You can take these meat and wine back first."

Shu An looked at it and said, "How can such a small amount be enough..."

The doorman said: "How can you, a poor family, need a lot? I have had too many guests in the past two days, so the amount is very large. If it wasn't for Dr. Shu, I wouldn't be able to give you even this."

Shu An didn't want to accept it, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to explain it when he went back, so he threw the money to the man in anger and went home with wine and meat.

After returning, he distributed some of the food and wine to Han Ning's family, and the two families reluctantly hosted the Full Moon Wine.
