As a native of Sioux City, Sun Lan naturally took care of things like hosting banquets.
Soon, he got it done.
He booked the best restaurant in Sioux City and invited many government officials who had been familiar with Niu Yuanping.
We also invited the newly appointed Lord Yin Huang Shao to attend the banquet, where he sat with Hong Bingzhong, Zhang Bucheng, Yan Molun, Li Chunting, Qi Lucui, many third-level demon slayers, Meng Qing, Zhong Ayue and Niu Yuan.
on a table.
Sun Lan, Kan Xingming, Hu Dafeng and Du Songsheng accompanied each other at the last seat, serving tea and water.
The atmosphere is quite lively.
"Not long after Huang Xin took office, there were a lot of things in the yamen, so he never had time to have a drink with all the demon slayers. Today I just have this opportunity, so I can get drunk with you all before resting!"
As the governor, Huang Shao first picked up the wine glass and said a few polite words in public.
All the demon slayers also raised their glasses in response.
Although the governor can only control the common people and not the demon slayers in the Demon Suppression Department, the officials in these local cities are the financial backers of the demon slayers.
Once the demon slayers eliminate evil spirits and ghosts in the city, they can obtain gold and silver rewards from these officials.
Therefore, even though they were not under Huang Shao's jurisdiction, Hong Bingzhong and others still had to be polite to him.
After the governor Huang Shao finished drinking a glass, he filled another glass and said to Meng Qing and Zhong Ayue, "The arrival of the two of you has really made our Su City Pengpi shine!"
Then, he spoke again, "It would be even better if you two could stay and guard Su City!"
After hearing this, Meng Qing smiled slightly and said, "We actually have a mission. We came to Su City this time specifically to bring Niu Yuanping back to the Demon Town Division to discuss merit and reward him."
After hearing this, Huang Shao looked at Niu Yuanping, who was sitting silently aside, and said, "I have also heard of the name of little brother Niu Yuanping! He has repeatedly made great contributions in many demon-slaying incidents!"
Niu Yuanping responded with a smile: "It is the good cooperation of other colleagues and adults, not my own contribution."
Huang Shao laughed and said, "Brother Yuanping is so humble..."
Then he looked around at all the demon slayers and said, "It is because of you that we in Su City can enjoy peace!... Come, let me toast you all again!"
After saying this, he drank it all in one gulp.
Niu Yuanping and other demon-slayers drank a glass of wine with Man.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
People's topics are becoming wider and wider.
Some government servants came over one after another to toast and chat with him, and they also made a special effort to talk to Niu Yuanping.
Meng Guang, the catcher, said to Niu Yuanping, "Brother... I used to be blind to the mountains... I have offended so many things, but I hope Haihan..."
He Erliang, the Yamen Chai, also said with an equally apologetic look, "Yes... I said a lot of things to you that I shouldn't have said to you before, brother... I'm really embarrassed..."
When Niu Yuanping heard this, he just smiled lightly.
In this world, there are always more icings on the cake and less help in times of need.
Once you gain power, many people will come over to clean your shoes and ride on your horse.
Niu Yuanping understands some truths and knows them all in his heart.
The most important thing is to be able to see clearly which ones are real and which ones are fake.
Besides, he really doesn't have to worry about these people now.
He smiled and said to them, "What happened in the past is in the past. After drinking this glass of wine, we all become good brothers."
Meng Guang and He Erliang were moved by these words and burst into laughter.
At this moment, Sun Lan also came to join in the fun, saying: "There are a lot of us Yuanping brothers! ... They are top-notch men! ... We are really lucky to get to know Yuanping brothers!"
"That's right!"
"That's a good thing to say..."
Everyone, please speak to me.
This way.
Hu Dafeng, Kan Xingming and Du Songsheng also came over to drink and chat with Niu Yuanping.
The atmosphere is also more lively.
Unconsciously.
All the demon slayers seem to have forgotten that there are still so many doubts about Niu Yuanping that cannot be explained clearly...
When the wine was drunk to the fullest, Sun Lan and Niu Yuanping hooked up.
Both of them were showing signs of drunkenness.
Sun Lan stared at Niu Yuanping.
"Brother!...I know there are many people who still don't trust you! I think you are full of doubts...but...no matter what, I will believe you!"
When he said these words, the faces of Hong Bingzhong, Zhang Bucheng and others changed slightly.
They really didn't expect that Sun Lan would be so impulsive and talk out of control after being drunk...
He actually pierced the window paper...
In fact, it would be better to pierce it.
Anyway, everyone already knows it.
Those who hide and tuck will fall into the inferior category!
Don't even say it...
When Niu Yuanping heard what he said, he was quite moved.
Niu Yuanping also stared at Sun Lan and said sincerely: "Thank you!..."
You really didn’t see the wrong person!
Although Sun Lan is a bit arrogant, he is not too bad.
Being able to say what he just said is enough to show that he is an honest person!
So, I couldn't help but say a few words from my heart to him.
"My biggest achievement in Sioux City! It should be to settle the differences with you! Be worthy of a brother!"
With that said, Niu Yuanping filled a glass of wine for him and handed it to him.
"Let's have another drink!"
Sun Lan took the glass of wine.
Staring at Niu Yuanping's face for a long time, he said, "I admit that since I met you, I have never won... but I am just not convinced! Sooner or later, I will be able to catch up with you!"
Niu Yuanping smiled and said, "I believe there will be a day. Let's work hard to become stronger together."
Then, the two clinked glasses and drank the wine in one gulp.
This scene was witnessed by Li Chunting, Hong Bingzhong, Zhang Bucheng, Yan Molun and Qi Lucui.
They were quickly infected by this atmosphere and emotion.
yes.
Why hide it?
Even if there are doubts and suspicions, so what?
Just follow this atmosphere at this moment and pour out your heart!
Let’s leave everything to the future.
Li Chunting picked up the wine glass and walked towards Niu Yuanping, "Brother! The first time I saw you, I thought you were different! ... You are smart and capable! I very much hope that I can have the opportunity to work with you again!"
Niu Yuanping responded calmly, "There will be a chance."
That's it, let's have a drink with him.
At this time, Hong Bingzhong also came over.
"Brother Yuanping is a smart and smart man! He will definitely be able to resolve many misunderstandings in the future! The future is bright and bright!..."
When he said this, Hong Bingzhong gestured to the other third-level demon-slayers and said, "We have been working with Brother Yuanping for so long... Why don't we toast him with a drink together."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Bucheng smiled at Niu Yuanping and picked up his wine glass.
Although Yan Molun was taciturn, he nodded and raised his glass in his hand.
Qi Lucui stood up.
He came closer and filled a glass of wine for himself.
She stared at Niu Yuanping and said, "I hope you will have the opportunity to come back to Su City and fill Lao Zhu's vacancy! ... We need you!"
Niu Yuanping looked at them.
There was a hint of warmth in my heart.
Although they have doubts about themselves.
But after being together for so long, we can naturally tell that there is a lot of true feelings in everyone's words at this moment.
He raised the wine cup in his hand and paid respect to Hong Bingzhong, Li Chunting, Zhang Bucheng, Qi Lucui, Yan Molun, as well as Sun Lan, Hu Dafeng, Kan Xingming and Du Songsheng beside him.
"Thousands of words are all in this wine! Let's drink this cup to the full!"
