Seeing how pitiful and unlucky he looked, everyone burst into laughter.
Shopkeeper Wang continued to stir up trouble, "We've already drunk the wine, so why not drink it to our heart's content? Come on, fill up your glasses!" As he said this, he moved closer to Zeng Zhui and started to persuade him to drink.
Hu Xu also drank a few more cups with them, and finally said to Xu Jiang: "Zhu Chun has come all the way here, thanks to the host. This cup is for you."
Xu Jiang glanced at Lou Yunchun, and seeing that he was normal, she clinked glasses with Hu Xu and said, "We're all friends, no need to be polite."
Hu Xu smiled, drank the wine, then poured another glass and toasted Lou Yunchun.
Lou Yunchun raised his glass and clinked it with his.
The two of them didn't say a word, but they were already talking from the bottom of their hearts.
The wine is gone, the cups and plates are clean, and it's time to go home.
Shopkeeper Wang helped Zeng Zhui onto his donkey and said worriedly, "Why don't you stay with me today? You're so drunk, and if you fall down somewhere along the way, you might freeze to death in this cold weather."
"Pfft, pfft, pfft!" Zeng Zhui's spit sprayed on Shopkeeper Wang's face. "You have nothing nice to say. I'm sober."
Shopkeeper Wang wiped his face and said helplessly, "I'd better find someone to take you back."
It was he who got him drunk.
Hu Xu's legs felt a little weak, but his mind was still clear, and his home was not far away, so he said goodbye to everyone and walked back slowly.
Xu Jiang watched him go away, sighing slightly in her heart, and then her palm felt warm, and someone held it.
She turned around and saw that Lou Yunchun's eyes were a little straight, and she couldn't help laughing. It seemed that he was drunk again.
"Boss, I'm leaving too." Lin Hongchu's face was flushed, but she was not drunk yet.
Xu Jiang warned, "Be careful on the road."
"knew."
Seeing her turn the corner with light footsteps, Xu Jiang pulled Lou Yunchun into the house to sit down, and then made him a cup of hangover tea.
Lou Yunchun sat there in a daze. Xu Jiang spread out paper and ground ink, recording the debate between the few people today one by one. When she recorded Lou Yunchun's remarks, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
Lou Yunchun's words were indeed clever, and if Hu Xu had examined them in detail, he might have been able to refute them. However, both of them were true gentlemen who knew when to stop and left room for each other.
Only Zeng Zhui is a fool.
Thinking that Du Hui's house must be in chaos at this time, she almost laughed.
After recording the speeches of several people, Xu Jiang read them carefully again and felt that all the talented people of the time were gathered on these few thin pages.
Suddenly, a chest pressed against her from behind, and then her shoulders sank.
Lou Yunchun buried his face in her neck and asked slowly, "Do you like it?"
"What?"
"plum bossom."
"like."
Lou Yunchun sighed softly, "As long as you like it."
Xu Jiang said, "I don't just like plum blossoms."
Lou Yunchun's breathing tightened slightly as he heard her say, "I also like your literary theory."
He was a little disappointed, so he hugged her tightly.
Xu Jiang was almost strangled by him, and quickly patted his hand and said, "I like you the most."
The hand on her waist loosened slightly, and Lou Yunchun whispered in her ear, "Say it again."
Xu Jiang felt a little embarrassed, but she still said to him again: "I like you the most, I like Zhaoyue, I like Yuenu."
"No moon slaves."
Xu Jiang chuckled, "Okay, no moon slave."
Yue Nu came in from the backyard, tail wagging, and was about to climb into Xu Jiang's arms when Lou Yunchun grabbed her by the neck and pulled her aside. She climbed back again, but before she could sit still, she was carried away again. This happened several times before she got angry, bit Lou Yunchun, and ran back to the backyard.
After a while, the donkey's dissatisfied braying was heard from the backyard again.
Xu Jiang was at a loss for words, "Why are you competing with a cat?"
Lou Yunchun dragged her away from the table, and the two of them sat down together by the bookshelf beside the stove. As soon as Xu Jiang settled down, Lou Yunchun fell on her legs, wrapped his arms around her waist, and buried his face in her arms.
"Are you sleepy?"
"Um."
"Then get some sleep."
Lou Yunchun didn't say anything for a long time. Xu Jiang thought he was asleep, so she bent down and kissed him on the ear.
"I like it too." Lou Yunchun suddenly whispered.
Xu Jiang knew what he was talking about, but still asked, "What do you like?"
"you."
Xu Jiang smiled and whispered in his ear, "I understand."
Then she felt her waist being hugged tighter. When she looked at Lou Yunchun again, she couldn't see his face. He was buried in her arms, with only one blood-red ear exposed.
Ilal finally came to pick up the painting.
Xu Jiang was a little surprised to see the wound on his face.
"What's going on?"
"I got into a fight with someone."
Yilale looked unhappy, and Xu Jiang was a little worried. "But what trouble did you encounter?"
Yilaer waved his hand and said, "It's just that we ran into that Zhou guy again from last time and we couldn't help but get into a fight. He brought people with him this time, so he got the short end of the stick." Seeing Xu Jiang's concern, he added, "Don't worry, Madam Xu. It's okay. It's better for him to vent his anger. Otherwise, it's not a good thing to keep holding it in and causing trouble for Wazi."
"I'm afraid he'll get a taste of his success this time and come back often."
"I'm not afraid," Yilale said surprisingly. "I'm planning to leave the capital, so I came here today to say goodbye to you."
"Leave?" Xu Jiang asked anxiously, "This matter is not unsolvable, why would you want to leave?"
Ilale shook his head and said, "I want to leave, not because of this."
Xu Jiang asked him to sit down and talk in detail.
"Recently, a group of Hu merchants arrived from Suiye City. After unloading their goods in the capital, they will head to Furong City. I want to go with them to Furong City to visit Wuluolan and Mo Ming, and then do some business with them." Yilale was rarely melancholic. "Since Wuluolan left, the capital feels so gray and dull. It's boring to stay here."
