Lu and Zhang were shocked when they heard this. You are a role model for learning. Isn't it even more powerful than you, Li Shaodian? They immediately looked at Xie Li with admiration.
Due to his unknown family background, Xie Li was rarely looked up to by others. Seeing the admiration in the eyes of these two noble gentlemen, he felt indescribably flattered in his heart.
Xie Fu continued: "My cousin has a dignified character and has always been a role model for me to learn from."
Hearing this, Lu and Zhang couldn't help laughing. Xie Fu was really dignified, but he was also really sultry, especially after drinking.
Learned.
When Xie Li saw the two young masters laughing, he guessed that Fu must have a bad record. He wanted to explain in his mind that Nai He had just met the two young masters and was unfamiliar with them. In addition, they were friends of Fu and not his friends, so it was difficult to speak.
Xie Fu said: "Why are you two laughing? My cousin and I grew up together and have been close brothers. I know the character of my cousin better than anyone else."
The two of them looked at Xie Fu, "We don't know what kind of person your cousin is, but we are getting to know you better and better, brother Xie. We didn't expect that you have such a coquettish side in your heart."
When Xie Fu and Lu Zhang talked about the gift of thanks, they praised it to the sky, but they were embarrassed to praise the gift.
His words were full of respect and kindness.
Xie Li was moved in his heart. No matter whether he is rich or poor, Fu is my brother and my brother by blood. This can never be changed.
Lu and Zhang also heard this, and felt amused in their hearts. "Thank you, brother, for your respectful words. How dare we be disrespectful? If we are disrespectful, we will treat you as nothing."
At the moment, he took the initiative to chat in front of the thank you gift, and his closeness was obvious.
Thank you, have you ever been so flattered by someone, let alone a well-known and first-class young man? I suddenly felt that I was proud and proud.
Xie Fu smiled secretly when he saw it, Brother Lu, Brother Zhang, you two are going to do something, Xie Fu took note of it.
After getting acquainted with each other, Xie Fu got to the point: "Brother was named a high school Jinshi on the gold list this time. I heard that Mr. Lu, the governor, cherishes talents and cherishes them. He did not hesitate to turn down the recommendation of famous scholars from Chang'an and came to Suzhou to join Mr. Lu, hoping to work under Mr. Lu.
Express your ambitions.”
Xie Li blushed after hearing this. He came to Suzhou only after settling for the next best thing, but Fu said this, and it was fair to him.
He looked at Xie Fu gently and said, "Well, Fu has made great progress."
When Lu Wenlin heard this, he responded on behalf of his father: "Okay."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "But my brother has visited Mr. Lu several times, but he has never met him."
Lu Wenlin knew clearly in his heart that his father was busy with official duties, and countless people came to see him every day, and not all the idle people would meet him. He said something nice: "My father is busy with official duties every day, and he is not in the house most of the time. Brother Ge Zhi didn't meet him."
It’s also normal.”
"Well, it's better to choose a different day than to hit it. I'll personally guide Brother Ge Zhi to make amends for the bad reception."
Xie Li was stunned for a moment, and Mr. Lu personally led the way to introduce him! It was a sure thing to meet Mr. Lu. Mr. Fu was not in vain, he was so loyal.
Xie Fu cupped his hands and said, "Brother Lu, thank you very much."
Lu Wenlin snorted: "We are being polite to each other. This is no longer the case. If you sincerely thank me, you must accompany me to the Suzhou Flower Selection in a few days. You must not refuse."
Xie Fu responded readily: "Okay!"
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said, "Miss Tantai won't be unhappy."
Xie Fu also became arrogant: "A woman cannot tolerate her gesticulating."
Zhang Lingxiao laughed and said meaningfully: "Only a man as domineering as Brother Xie can control the famous Mrs. Xiaohe."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, don't be subtle in what you say."
Zhang Lingxiao pretended to be puzzled and asked Lu Wenlin: "Brother Lu, did I say something wrong?"
Lu Wenlin smiled and said: "Even if you are right, in front of Brother Xie, I have to say that you are wrong."
After chatting, Lu Wenlin walked up to Xie Li and said, "Brother Ge Zhi, please, I will lead the way."
Xie Li stood up in shock: "Now?"
Lu Wenlin nodded: "Maybe my father is free today."
He thanked him and said, "I have no preparation today. Let me go back and change my clothes first."
Lu Wenlin smiled and said: "No need, my father never pays attention to these things."
Xie Fu said: "No, how can I be rude when meeting Mr. Lu for the first time? Our Xie family has always been a family of etiquette. It is Mr. Lu's business not to pay attention to these things, but we cannot be rude to others."
"Brother, you have a similar figure to me. Come with me to pick out some clothes and change into them."
"good."
Xie Li looked very anxious, and kept up with Xie Fu. Suddenly something occurred to him, and he was afraid that Lu Wenlin would just leave, so he turned around and said, "Master Lu, please wait a moment."
Lu Wenlin smiled: "Brother Ge Zhi, take your time, I have nothing to do today anyway."
After leaving the hall, Xie Li asked: "Fu, how come you know someone like Mr. Lu?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "The two of them are what you usually call brother, pig friends and dog friends."
Xie Li looked embarrassed. He wished he could get to know more of such pig and dog friends.
From Chang'an to Suzhou, he encountered obstacles at every turn, and his thoughts gradually changed. If he didn't have connections, no matter how upright and talented he was, it would be useless.
Human relations and being gregarious are also very important. Looking at Fu Hun's success, I have to learn from him in this aspect.
Thinking of this, he said: "Fu, brother, my thoughts may have been a little extreme in the past, and there is no need to strictly abide by the rules in life. But there is one thing that I hope you can keep in mind, and that is to have a clear conscience."
With a clear conscience, Xie Fu responded: "Please remember your brother's teachings."
Xie Li smiled bitterly: "Now that you are more famous than my brother, I am not qualified to teach you. I just hope that you will not be too proud and can abide by your duties."
Xie Fu pointed forward: "As long as I have my brother shining in front of me, I will never go astray."
Xie Li was deeply relieved and said softly: "Fu, grandpa actually misses you very much. Although he has never mentioned it, I can see it. I hope you don't blame him."
Xie Fu's heart trembled, and he was immediately poked at the softest part of his heart, and his eyes almost turned red. He is a person who values family ties the most.
He replied: "No! Never! I understand his difficulties. The Xie family is like a shaky old tree. He pressed his old body against the old tree to protect our two brothers.
The bird grows.”
Xie Li said with a guilty conscience: "Fu, grandpa is a little partial to me, but you have to understand that I am the eldest son, and the responsibility for revitalizing the Xie family falls on my brother. Grandpa just wants you to be more relaxed, and he feels guilty for you.
At the same time, it is also a special favor for you."
"Brother, there's no need to say it, I understand everything."
"It's been two years since you left home. Grandpa is getting older. It's time to go home and see him."
Xie Fu's heart suddenly trembled, he stopped, then lowered his head and said softly: "I have been expelled from the clan, in what capacity will I return?"
Xie Li smiled calmly: "Take Miss Tantai back with you. Grandpa also has a place to go. Besides, when you get married to Miss Tantai, can you miss out on his biological grandfather?"
