Chapter 049: The Truth Comes Out After Drinking
Seeing them come back, Ying Zhilin urged, "Go wash your hands and have dinner. Xiaohai, go help grandma over."
Upon hearing this, Granny Wu stood up with the help of her crutches: "No need for Xiao Hai's help, I can walk by myself."
Wen Yan hurried over, hugged Fifth Grandma's arm and shook it, "Grandma, you see, we have food and meat tonight, all we need is a little wine. Please be kind to me and give us a jar of wine!"
"You are so naughty!" Grandma Wu patted Wen Yan's hand, "Go pick it yourself, they are all in their original places."
"Alright!" Wen Yan cheered, "We'll have wine tonight. Sister Chi Fei, my grandmother has some decades-old wine that's guaranteed to keep you coming back for more."
Wen Yan settled the Fifth Mother-in-law and was about to go get some wine. Ying Zhilin stopped her, "Let me go, you stay with the guests."
After a while, Ying Zhilin brought a jar of wine.
After opening it, the rich fragrance filled the whole yard.
Wen Yan rushed to distribute wine to everyone.
Ying Zhilin cut off the tenderest lamb loin and gave half to Wen Yan and half to Grandma Wu.
Meng Chifei immediately protested: "Hey, I'm the guest, why don't I get a portion of the best meat? Do you know how to treat guests?"
Wen Yan poured the wine to her mouth.
As soon as the wine entered his mouth, Meng Chifei no longer cared about the mutton.
Her eyes widened: "It tastes good! This wine tastes good!"
Fine wine and delicious food, reunion with close friends after a long separation.
There were no rules in the deep courtyard anymore, and Wen Yan and Meng Chifei kept drinking and chatting. In just half an hour, their cheeks were flushed from drinking.
"Brother said that you should go to sleep when you are drunk. Yanyan, let's go back to the room and sleep." Meng Chifei stood up shakily and picked up Wen Yan.
Holding her waist, they stumbled and supported each other as they walked towards the room.
Ying Zhilin was afraid that the two would fall or get hurt, so he followed behind to protect them.
Meng Chifei glanced back suddenly, then leaned over to Wen Yan's ear and said loudly, "Yan Yan, someone is following us. It's a dark night with strong winds, and he's either robbing us of our money or our women. Wait for me to break his legs."
Meng Chifei started rolling up his sleeves as he spoke.
"No, no, if you kill him with one punch, you'll go to jail. Let me deal with him!"
Wen Yan said, turning around and pointing at Ying Zhilin, "Don't think you can do bad things just because you're pretty. My sister is incredibly strong and can beat you until you scream."
Meng Chifei glanced back at Ying Zhilin and covered his mouth with his hands while laughing: "He is really good-looking, but I don't know if he has a good figure or strong muscles, hehe..."
"It's guaranteed to be firm. I just checked it this morning, and the chest is really firm and feels great to the touch. Hehe..."
The two women talked dirty and staggered back to the room.
Ying Zhilin recalled the scene of applying the medicine in the morning, and his cheeks felt slightly hot.
He put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly: "They are drunk and talking nonsense..."
No one thought much about it.
His explanation only made it more obvious.
The night deepens.
The Ying family courtyard also fell into silence.
Wen Yan, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly sat up.
She looked around.
I found Meng Chifei lying next to me.
He rubbed his dizzy head and sat on the bed for a while.
She suddenly opened the small drawer on the kang cabinet, took out two medicine bottles, and staggered towards the study.
The light was still on in the study.
"Ying Zhilin." Wen Yan knocked on the door, speaking incoherently, "Ying Zhilin, are you asleep? Open the door quickly."
Footsteps were soon heard in the house.
The door opened from the inside.
Wen Yan was seen standing outside the door with messy hair, flushed cheeks and a dazed look in her eyes.
She was staggering, and the intoxicating smell of alcohol was still emanating from her body.
Ying Zhilin reached out to help her: "Are you thirsty and want some water?"
"I'm not thirsty, so I won't drink." Wen Yan shook her head and raised the two bottles in her hand and shook them. "You haven't taken your medicine tonight yet. I'll bring it to you."
Ying Zhilin's eyes softened, and he reached out to take the medicine bottle: "You came here just for this? It doesn't matter if I skip a meal."
"How can that be? If you skip a meal, you will suffer for one more day. An obedient patient must take medicine on time. How can you let a medicine boy like me worry about it! If I met a patient like you when I was on an expedition with my husband before, I would have cursed you!" Wen Yan stuffed a medicine bottle into her arms.
He uncorked the other bottle, poured out a pill, and handed it to Ying Zhilin's mouth, saying fiercely, "Eat it quickly."
Ying Zhilin frowned slightly. What husband? What extrovert?
He thought to himself and reached out to take the pill: "Thank you very much, I can do it myself."
"It's just some medicine, why are you so troublesome?" Wen Yan stuffed the medicine directly into his mouth and pinched his chin to lift it up.
Gurgle...
The pill slid smoothly into his stomach.
Wen Yan changed the bottle and started to rub the ointment: "You are quick, quickly untie your clothes."
Ying Zhilin took two steps back and said, "No need. I can apply the ointment myself."
"You talk too much." Wen Yan stepped into the room and pressed forward.
She used her wrist to push Ying Zhilin back into the house.
Until Ying Zhilin crashed into the desk and had no way to retreat.
Wen Yan pressed his shoulders and he fell onto the huge desk.
"Lie down and don't move, or I'll hit you." Wen Yan's cheeks were flushed as she said scary words, her hands already pulling open his collar.
The palm print on his chest had subsided and turned from red to purple.
Wen Yan nodded with satisfaction: "The army specializes in treating injuries from falls, and the medicine is indeed well-deserved."
She placed both hands on Ying Zhilin's chest and began massaging it. "Huh... it was so easy to massage this morning, but why is it so sluggish at night? I can hardly move it at all."
Wen Yan did not check the reason why the massage was not effective, but instead increased the strength.
Ying Zhilin groaned in pain, and his face turned from red to white.
Wen Yan: "It's just some ointment. Be a real man, just bear with it and it will pass."
After the massage, Wen Yan felt as if he had accomplished something great.
She reset his collar and patted his chest again: "The medicine has been applied. You should rest early. Don't get tired if you are injured."
Wen Yan left contentedly.
Ying Zhilin: “…”
So, she came here specially just to apply medicine to herself?
What were you expecting just now?
And what does the husband she just mentioned, sending him away, mean?
Before marrying me, had she been married to someone else?
Who is that person?
Why separate?
But Wen Yan is only sixteen years old, how can she have time to get married and then divorced?
There is no wall that is completely airtight.
If she gets married, there will definitely be no rumors.
Is this drunken nonsense?
But they say the truth comes out when drunk...
In the past, he only thought that Wen Yan had lofty ambitions and was different from ordinary women.
I just discovered today that there are so many mysteries surrounding her!
Suppressing his troubled thoughts, he propped himself up and sat up, rubbing a layer of medicinal and smooth paste on his collar.
He smiled bitterly.
The ointment that Wen Yan had just dug out was all over his collar.
That's why it's so difficult to push forward.
If he didn't have such good self-control, he would have cried out in pain.
