Chapter 375: When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are cheap, they will be invincible
Chapter 375: When the water is clear, there are no fish; when people are humble, they are invincible
"Is eating cakes also called a question?" Yi Xiaotian asked... "This move is quite damaging!"
"Hey... Damn? You can't leave as soon as possible..." Xu You got up and raised his hands, holding his stomach, as if I am so damaged, what can you do to me. "The surname is Yi, the surname is Yi.
Guo, let me tell you the truth, if you can’t pass this test, no one in Yecheng will dare to go against my Xu You or my Xu family because of you! Otherwise, huh..."
Cold words...
What Xu You said is true...
What kind of temperament did Xu You have? Xun Yu's evaluation of him was "greedy but unruly", and Yecheng's evaluation of him was "bad conduct", "bullying others with power", "domineering..."
As the saying goes, it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. In the entire Ye City, no matter whether it is a wealthy family or a child from a poor family, no one can offend this villain because of other people's affairs!
Huh... Yi Xiaotian breathed lightly and said to Guo Jia. "Brother Guo, I have heard a sentence before, but I have never had such a deep understanding. Now it is completely clear..."
"What are you talking about? When Brother Yi said this, I, Guo Jia, got curious." Guo Jia replied with a smile, seemingly not caring about Xu You's cold words.
"Well..." Yi Xiaotian shook his head, then opened his voice and said loudly. "It's called - when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when the people are humble, they will be invincible!"
…
Huo… When the water is clear, there will be no fish; when people are humble, they will be invincible!
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Zhen Mansion burst out laughing. Everyone was laughing and pointing in the direction of Xu You and Xu Yuan. It seemed that the word "cheap" could not be more suitable to describe him. It was very good.
How appropriate!
"You...you..." Xu You was about to curse, but Zhen Yan stopped him... "Mr. Xu, please be patient. Let them try this last question..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Zhen Mansion fell silent again, a silence that could be heard by a needle drop...
Everyone looked at Yi Xiaotian and Guo Jia with their eyes. They wanted to know if there was any way to eat these thousands of big cakes within two sticks of incense...
"Brother Guo? I have long heard that this Hebei cake is very fragrant, but I have never tasted it. I don't think we are in for a treat today." Yi Xiaotian smiled slightly...
"Yes, it's my first time to taste it too!" Guo Jia also smiled slightly. At this point, he was relieved...
It is true that he also wants to marry the second young lady of the Zhen family, but rather than embarrass Brother Yi, he would rather give up this marriage.
Of course, Guo Jia is thinking about giving up, but Yi Xiaotian is determined to win, and he still has a trump card.
After all, there is one person in this matter, and as long as he takes action, there will definitely be room for change. As for his name - Mr. Hao.
No matter how awesome Xu You is? He can't compare to Brother Hidden, the number one counselor in Cao's camp. Even if Brother Guo can't marry the second lady of the Zhen family today, Yi Xiaotian will still have to ask Brother Hidden for help!
"Brother Guo, don't be afraid of being late for a good meal. It's only one or two days away!"
Yi Xiaotian sat down calmly, picked up a piece of big cake and started eating it.
Not to mention, this test question is unreliable. The taste of Zhenfu pancake is really good. It can even compare with Shandong pancake. If it can be rolled with some scallions and dipped in a little sweet noodle sauce, Yi Xiaotian feels
He can eat three big ones!
"Brother Yi..." Guo Jia also sat down and took one. "It's good to try your best. I, Guo Jia, have always seen clearly... There is a saying that there is no grass in the world, so why should you fall in love with a flower unrequitedly?
Brother Yi feels sorry for working so hard. He didn’t prepare sumptuous dishes, so I lent him this cake to entertain him, so that he could fill his stomach!"
Hahaha…
Guo Jia seems very open-minded...
However, the meaning of their conversation seemed to be that they were admitting defeat.
After all, thousands of cakes in two hours? Who can finish them all?
at this time…
"Brother Yi, Brother Guo, how can you eat cake without me?" Zhen Yao patted his chest, walked over on his own initiative, picked up a big cake and ate it...
"Sir, Luo'er happens to be hungry too?" Zhen Luo quickly walked to Yi Xiaotian's side, blinked her big eyes, and asked curiously. "I don't know if this cake in our Zhen Mansion is suitable for Mr.
What’s the taste?”
Well…
Yi Xiaotian was just about to answer.
"Sister Luo'er, there are us..." The eldest daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Jiang, the third daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Dao, and the fourth daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Rong, all walked down...
Not only did each of them pick up a piece of bread, but even their servants and maids also picked up the bread and started eating it!
All of a sudden, the lively wedding at the Zhen family in Nuoda turned into a gourmet party.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and eating with gusto.
…
However, it seems that the number of dozens of people is still too small for thousands of cakes.
"Hahahaha..." Xu You laughed out loud. He looked at Yi Xiaotian and at the scene of a group of people in the Zhen Mansion eating cakes. He grinned with a hint of ridicule.
"Eat, keep eating, I'll see how you can eat all these thousands of cakes..." Xu You pointed at Yi Xiaotian and laughed... along with it, sharp and rampant laughter filled the whole courtyard.
But at this moment.
"Mr. Yi, you are not interesting enough..." A low and thick voice came...
Well…
Yi Xiaotian went to look for fame, but the person who came was not Dian Wei from the ancient evil? Who else could it be?
But he saw Dian Wei quickly rushing into the middle. He looked around, scanning everyone, and his eyes seemed to linger on Xu Yi's face deliberately for a moment.
Then Dian Wei frowned, as if blaming Yi Xiaotian. "Mr. Yi, there is not enough food in Yecheng. Our Hu Ben army has not had enough to eat for dozens of days. You have so many thousands of cakes here, why don't you say hello?"
What about a shout? Hahaha...I, Dianwei, can’t wait.”
While speaking, Dian Wei waved his hand...
But I saw that hundreds of tiger soldiers rushed in quickly one by one, and everyone was not polite. They picked up the big cake and started to eat it.
The Tigers and Benjun are already big and strong, and even though the cake is huge, in their mouths, it takes several mouthfuls...
Even for fear of wasting it, each of them picked up the crumbs that fell on the plate and stuffed them into their mouths, looking extremely satisfied.
"delicious…"
While stuffing the cake into his mouth, Dian Wei reached out and patted Yi Xiaotian's shoulder. "Mr. Yi, you can't take this good thing for yourself... We all fought hard together in Guanzhong, and then there is this
When it comes to eating, Mr. Yi, you must first think of me, Dianwei, and our brothers in the Huben Army..."
Ah...this...
Suddenly, Yi Xiaotian felt a little hypoxic. Everything was fine. Why is Dian Wei here? The Tiger Ben Army is also here?
Could it be that during this period, when food was in short supply and there was not enough to eat, Dian Wei and Hu Ben's army came looking for them after smelling the aroma of cakes?
This is…too…too…too…what a coincidence!
Yi Xiaotian was particularly shocked...
But at this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded outside the door of Guo Mansion.
Then "Dedede..." they neighed in unison, like countless war horses stopping.
Tap tap tap... followed closely by the sound of footsteps, some rapid but orderly footsteps.
Next... the knights stood in front of the Zhen Mansion one by one...
"Who is Mr. Yi?"
The leader was a young general in his twenties. His tone was gentle and his attitude was very humble.
Well…
"Who am I?" Yi Xiaotian was a little confused. He didn't recognize this... young general!
"I've met Mr. Yi." The young general bowed his hands. "Xia Houen, the deputy commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, was originally ordered to deliver a treasure, but I heard that Mr. Yi had big cakes to eat here, so he specifically asked Mr. Yi to give some.
, when the brothers heard that it was Hebei pancake, they were so greedy that they couldn’t stop..."
Speaking of this, Xia Houen paused for a moment, then pointed to Cao Jun behind him. "These thousand tiger and leopard cavalry warriors have not had enough to eat in several days! They are looking forward to the stars and the moon, and they are looking forward to this reward from Mr. Yi.
Just a meal..."
Um...this...
Yi Xiaotian wanted to say something, but found that his throat was even tighter... He was speechless for a moment and could not speak.
Hahaha…
Guo Jia laughed heartily and said, "Come, please come inside. They are all friends of Brother Yi. You are welcome. Nothing else. As for this big cake, our Zhen Mansion can have as much as we want!"
Huh... In an instant, more than a thousand tiger and leopard knights poured into the pavilion!
The entire Zhen Mansion was full of people... tigers and leopards, each holding three or five large cakes in their hands, munching away as if they hadn't eaten in three days!
Yi Xiaotian was greedy looking at it. He wanted to take another piece to chew carefully, but found that... it was gone. Fifty trays of cakes? All of them were taken away...
I go…
Yi Xiaotian scratched his head, could this be the so-called light of the righteous path shining on the earth?
Then he raised his head and looked at Xu You, Xu Yuan, Zhen Yan...
These three people were all ashen-faced!
Their dejected looks were like soft-shelled turtles boiling in a warm soup pot—dead or alive!
