Chapter 106 Drunk
Red Lady pulled the two curious little kids onto the carriage. The little kids loved their own carriage and wished they could live in it.
Mingzai, who was standing by, was tugging at the corner of his patched clothes and looking at the man with envy.
"Mingzi, do you want to go up and take a look?"
Shen Jinan half-knelt down with a smile and looked at Mingzi.
"I, I can't do it, Aunt Shen, my clothes are dirty."
Mingzi lowered his head and looked at his tattered cloth shoes, and suddenly felt inferior.
Unexpectedly, the next moment Sui Sui Huan Huan popped up and said, "Ming Zai! Come in and play!"
"Go, Mingzai." Shen Jinan took Mingzai's little hand and carried Mingzai into the carriage.
Mingzi's eyes lit up, and he happily played with Suisui and Huanhuan in the carriage.
Gu Yanqing and others who heard the sound went out to see what was going on. When Yue Buwei saw the carriage, he showed an exaggerated expression.
“Wow, Miss Shen, you can even afford a carriage, so you don’t have to pick herbs anymore.”
Yue Buwei touched his gray head and joked with a smile.
"How dare you, Old Monster Yue? My sister owns the carriage because of her ability. If you dare not work, I will break your arm."
When Hongniang heard this, she immediately became unhappy and raised her fist to threaten Yue Buwei.
Yue Buwei hid behind Duan Ya with his head in his hands, and stuck out his tongue at Hong Niangzi.
"My wife."
Gu Yanqing walked up and called Shen Jinan, then looked at the carriage, smiled and put his arms around Shen Jinan's slender waist.
"My wife is very capable now, and I am almost a gigolo. What should I do?"
I felt his gentle embrace, and heard his deep and magnetic voice in my ears, coupled with this teasing tone.
Shen Jinan's face turned red uncontrollably.
"If I, Shen Jinan, have the ability to make Chief Minister Gu eat soft rice, then, that is my good fortune."
Her face flushed as she spoke with confidence, as if she wanted to support Gu Yanqing.
Gu Yanqing's heart was moved by her cute appearance.
Lady Hong couldn't stand the flirting between the two, so she clasped her hands and glanced at Gu Yanqing with a forced smile, then smiled and pulled Shen Jinan away.
"Sister, I haven't eaten your cooking properly these past few days. You have to show me your cooking skills today."
Shen Jinan agreed with a smile, turned around, rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen. Gu Yanqing naturally followed him relentlessly.
One of them cooked while the other burned firewood. Although they didn't say a word, they had a very good understanding of each other.
An hour later, various dishes were served on the big round table. This round table was newly bought by Shen Jinan in the past few days. As more people came to the family, the square table could no longer accommodate them.
Everyone sat in a circle with Shen Jinan as the center.
"System, is my medicinal wine ready?" Shen Jinan asked the system in his heart.
The system's familiar yet cold voice rang out, "Replying to the host, it's brewed."
Hearing this, Shen Jinan was secretly happy. It was indeed an upgraded system with such high efficiency.
"Everyone eat first, I'll go get something from the kitchen."
Shen Jinan greeted everyone, then turned and went into the kitchen. While no one was looking, he took out a liter of medicinal wine from the system and poured it into the pottery jar that the waiter had given him.
Duan Ya was eating happily at the table when a gust of wind came, bringing with it an extremely strong aroma of wine mixed with a special medicinal scent.
"There's wine!" Duan Ya slammed his chopsticks and stood up excitedly.
"Nothing can be hidden from Brother Broken Tooth's nose." Shen Jinan walked over with a smile, holding a pottery jar.
“Girl Shen, what is this?”
Yue Buwei also became curious when he smelled the medicinal aroma in the wine.
"This is the medicinal wine I brewed. Everyone, come and try it and see how good my brewing skills are, my first time brewing."
Shen Jinan picked up the pottery jar and poured it into five large bowls. The crystal clear liquid slid from the mouth of the jar into the bottom of the bowl. Broken Tooth couldn't help swallowing.
"Brother Duan Ya, please try it first." Shen Jinan fulfilled his promise and handed the medicinal wine to Duan Ya first, and then distributed it to everyone.
Sui Sui Huan Huan and Ming Zai were young, so naturally they couldn’t taste a single bite.
“Mom, I want to drink too!” Huanhuan raised her chubby little arms and acted coquettishly towards Shen Jinan.
Gu Yanqing grabbed the dumpling and showed a serious look, "Children can't drink alcohol."
"Okay." Huanhuan pouted and sat back in her seat to eat with Sui Sui and Ming Zai.
“Good wine!”
Broken Tooth drank it all in one gulp, and then praised loudly, smacking his lips to savor the taste, "Chen girl, as soon as you drink this wine, your whole body is warm, and there is a medicinal fragrance. I don't feel dizzy after drinking it, it's amazing!"
Hearing Broken Tooth's high evaluation, the others also started to taste it. Even though Shen Jinan didn't drink alcohol, he also took a few sips.
The wine has a fragrant aroma as soon as you take a sip, and a mellow taste without being turbid. When you drink it, you will feel your whole body warming up.
There were delicious food and good wine, and everyone enjoyed the meal to their heart's content.
Although Gu Yanqing was still weak, this wine was good for nourishing the body, so Shen Jinan also allowed him to drink a few more sips.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yanqing's alcohol tolerance was not good. His cheeks began to turn red after just a few sips. Shen Jinan was afraid that he would feel unwell after getting drunk, so he quickly took away his wine bowl and helped him to go to the room to rest.
"Madam, well, madam, don't leave."
Gu Yanqing was half lying on the bed, the corners of her narrow eyes were red, and her slender fingers were hooked around Shen Jinan's sleeves.
He looked as if he had been bullied.
Shen Jinan hurried back, “Okay, okay, I won’t leave, my husband, I’m here.”
Seeing her turn around, Gu Yanqing smiled, hugged Shen Jinan's slender waist, and buried his head in her arms.
"Jin'an, I like you, you can only be my wife."
These words exploded in Shen Jinan's ears like a thunder. Who would have thought that Gu Yanqing, who usually looked old-fashioned and boring, could say such words.
"You, you, you, my husband, please take a good rest. I'll get a basin of water to wipe your face."
Shen Jinan wanted to find an excuse to push Gu Yanqing away, fearing that he would say something that would shock her again.
As a result, the drunk Gu Yanqing not only talked nonsense, but also had a frighteningly strong grip and refused to let Shen Jinan go.
Shen Jinan had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed and touched Gu Yanqing's hot forehead, "My dear husband, I will make you some sobering soup, okay?"
Hearing this, Gu Yanqing raised her flushed face, her starry eyes sparkled, and her voice softened a little.
"Well, my wife treats me the best."
He now looks like a big plush dog, waiting for his owner's caress.
Chen Jinan resisted the urge to rub his head, slowly removed his big hand, and moved towards the door under Gu Yan's clear and bright gaze.
After finally opening the door, Shen Jinan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, Hong Niangzi was standing at the door.
Hong Niangzi folded her hands and glanced meaningfully at Shen Jinan's loose bun, looking as if she understood.
"You're out so soon, girl?"
