If he didn't have a couple of drinks on such a nice day, the alcohol bugs in their stomachs would probably protest against him.
"Since today is a good day, I will go home and fetch a jar of wine so that we can have some fun together."
When his wine was mentioned, Gu Tianhua became even happier and just told him to go quickly.
Xie Qingwan smiled helplessly and asked someone to prepare a carriage for him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Lingze arrived at the door, Zhao Chengmo came over on horseback.
He dismounted from his horse and handed a bundle behind him to Gu Lingze.
Gu Lingze knew what it was without opening it. He could tell through the cloth that it was in the shape of a wine jar.
"How do you know I want this?" Even though he and Zhao Chengmo have been together for quite some time, he was still a little surprised.
Zhao Chengmo raised his hand and scratched his nose, "You and I are in tune with each other."
Gu Lingze's ears turned red. Zhao Chengmo was becoming more and more skilled at saying this kind of thing. But who cares? He just liked to hear it.
He cleared his throat and said, "I haven't congratulated this lord yet, but he has already become the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard."
Zhao Chengmo knew that Gu Lingze was joking, so he raised his hand and pinched his red earlobe, laughing lowly a few times.
This smile was not a big deal, but unexpectedly it made Gu Lingze stunned.
The scar on Zhao Chengmo's face can no longer be seen unless you look carefully.
The angular face exuded a stern look, with slanted sword-like eyebrows, dark and deep eyes, a straight nose, and lips of moderate thickness that were revealing a dazzling smile.
He has a standard figure with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. Even when he is wearing military court robes, one can vaguely see the outline of his muscles.
"What should I do?" Gu Lingze uttered three words in a daze.
Zhao Chengmo looked at him with some confusion, "What should I do?"
"I think I might regret 'wiping your face' a little."
Zhao Chengmo was stunned, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood what he meant.
He took Gu Lingze's hand and placed it on his face, "This face is yours, you can do whatever you want with it."
"Ahem." Qian Bo, who was standing next to the carriage, cleared his throat, "Young Master, General Zhao, please go in first and talk."
After hearing this, Gu Lingze pursed his lips a little embarrassedly. Zhao Chengmo handed the hemp rope to the gatekeeper and walked in taking Gu Lingze's hand.
The wine jar that Zhao Chengmo brought was empty, and all the wine was in his secret realm.
As usual, the other party was covering for him, and he "smuggled" the wine out of the room.
The wine taken out this time was no longer medicinal wine with medicinal effects, but real pure wine. If they wanted to drink, they could drink to their heart's content. Fortunately, the four of them were restrained and not alcoholics.
Around noon, Xie Xiru and Old Madam Xie came with Han Xiaoran. When all the dishes were served, everyone sat down at the table.
Zhao Chengmo broke the mud seal on the wine jar, and a strong aroma of wine spread out. Gu Feirui rubbed his hands anxiously and stretched his neck to look around.
Seeing this, Xie Xiru pointed at him and scolded him with a smile: "This little monkey, no matter how old he is, he will always jump up and down like this."
As usual, except for the four people who used bowls, everyone else used wine cups. Han Xiaoran touched his belly and said depressedly: "When you are born, Dad will definitely come to your cousin's house every day to ask for wine."
Everyone laughed when they heard this. They thought he was going to be a father but he was still so childish.
"This wine is called Hantanxiang. It is more fragrant, mellow and stronger than the wine I brewed before. If you can't handle the alcohol, you'd better just take a sip."
When the four wine lovers heard this, their eyes lit up, especially Gu Feirui, who kept telling him to hurry up.
After pouring the wine, Xie Xiru raised his glass and said, "Grandfather wishes you three a prosperous and bright future."
Xie Xiru was talking about three people, which naturally included Zhao Chengmo.
Gu Lingze looked at him, and Zhao Chengmo couldn't help but feel his throat tighten.
Everyone raised their glasses and toasted for today's good fortune.
Gu Lingze knew the strength of the wine, so he only took a sip. Gu Feirui drank the whole bowl in one breath, grinning in excitement.
"Ha." Gu Tianhua also let out a long sigh, "What a great wine!"
Zhao Chengmo and Gu Xiuyi also nodded, feeling equally happy.
Old Madam Xie and Xie Qingwan, on the other hand, felt that the wine was too strong and spicy, and that Bamboo Leaf Green was milder.
The four of them drank one bowl each and ended up getting drunk. Gu Feirui was still clamoring to have a duel, which made the others laugh and cry.
When Zhao Chengmo got drunk, he held Gu Lingze's hand and refused to let go, still with a cold face. If it weren't for his misty eyes, Gu Lingze really couldn't tell whether he was really drunk or not.
"Mom, you go back and take care of Dad. I'll stay here with Cheng Mo."
Xie Qingwan nodded, "Mom asked the kitchen to make some soup. If Chengmo wakes up, let him drink some."
"Okay, got it."
After Xie Qingwan went back, Gu Lingze looked at Zhao Chengmo lying on the bed and felt a little sleepy. He had eaten too much, and if he dozed off on the edge of the bed, he would always have bloating.
He simply pulled back the quilt and lay down in it since he was still dressed anyway.
When Zhao Chengmo opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was Gu Lingze's face.
Maybe she slept too hot, and her usually fair cheeks were slightly tinged with pink.
The hands of the two people holding together were already sweaty, but Zhao Chengmo was still reluctant to let go. He just looked at Gu Lingze's face quietly.
Zhao Chengmo hopes that time can stop at this moment, so that he can always look at his sweetheart quietly.
Perhaps feeling his gaze, Gu Lingze's eyelashes trembled slightly and she opened her eyes.
"You're awake." Gu Lingze's voice was still a little hoarse after just waking up.
"Um."
"Let's get up then."
Gu Lingze was about to stand up when Zhao Chengmo grabbed him into his arms again.
"But I'm still a little sleepy. Stay with me for a while."
The two of them were breathing heavily and the atmosphere was charming. Gu Lingze felt that the quilt on his body was too hot to cover himself.
"Lingze! Is Zhao Chengmo awake yet?" Gu Feirui's loud voice and the banging on the door would probably wake him up no matter how deep his sleep was.
When it comes to spoiling the fun, General Gu is probably the first one.
Zhao Chengmo sighed helplessly. Gu Lingze almost laughed out loud when he heard his sigh.
"You're awake. Go ahead and we'll go to the front hall right away."
"Then hurry up!"
After they cleaned up and washed up, they went to the front hall. Xie Qingwan asked the kitchen to cook soup, and everyone drank a bowl.
Gu Lingze put down the soup bowl, and when everyone had finished drinking, he said, "Dad, Mom, I have something to discuss with you."
Seeing his serious expression, Xie Qingwan asked the servants to clear the soup bowls and leave.
Qian Bo was about to retreat as well, but Gu Lingze stopped him.
Qian Bo is like a relative to the Gu family, and there is nothing to be on guard against.
After everyone went out, Gu Lingze pasted talismans on the doors and windows. If anyone approached to eavesdrop, he would be the first to know.
