The servants of the Peng family ran over and carried the young generals back. Of course, Peng Silang didn't need to be carried; he only needed to be supported.
As he left, he smugly told Huo Yanyu, "I'm not so easily defeated. You fat girl, you think you can make a fool of me? No way!"
Huo Junhao: "...Who is she pretending to be her brother with? Her real brother is right here!"
Peng Silang grinned: "Yes, the real big brother! I'll drink with you next time!"
After saying that, he winked at Huo Yanyu, and then was helped away.
Huo Yanyu was filled with complicated emotions. Could it be that this guy has taken a liking to her? Now that he's not fat anymore, he can come out and flirt with young girls? Humph!
Gu Si tugged at Huo Yanyu: "Silly girl, it seems like Brother Peng is especially fond of you!"
Gu Nian laughed and said, "Sisi, when those boys like a girl, they like to compete for her. Peng Silang has his eye on our silly boy."
Huo Yanyu calmly replied, "Tch, my uncle said he won't hire any young men who join the army."
Gu Si fell into deep thought.
Is that so?
The eldest sister likes Brother Peng and teases him when she's not training.
There was no bullying between Second Sister and Second Brother Xue!
There's absolutely no question of bullying between Third Sister and Brother Yuan; their relationship is overflowing with love!
How can bullying someone be considered liking someone?
Gu Si felt that Gu Nian was wrong, because Huo Shentong often bullied and made fun of her, so it couldn't be said that Huo Shentong liked her, right? Huo Shentong was just too smart, and she was a bit stupid, so she was ridiculed. How could that be considered liking?
No one noticed Gu Si's little scheme. They didn't know that this little sister, who used to just agree with whatever her family said, had now learned to think for herself, knew how to refute, and even used herself as an example to refute.
Gu Xin was worried that Lu Zheng was drunk and wanted to take him home, but Gu Nian stopped her.
Gu Xin: "Sister, let's take Yuanyuan and Meng back! They've drunk so much!"
Gu Nian looked at Lu Zheng and said with a forced smile, "A Yuan, are you going to take us home? If we get back late, my dad will scold us."
Lu Zheng quickly shook his head: "No. Xin Xin, I'm fine, you guys go back first! I'll come find you tomorrow!"
Gu Nian then smiled. That's more like it!
This person might normally be able to control their thoughts, but now that they've been drinking, who knows?
In the eyes of the ancients, Gu Xin was almost fourteen, an age when she could get married. But in their eyes, Xin Xin was still a student. At this time, they absolutely could not let the two of them get too close, lest Lu Zheng do something to Xin Xin.
Seeing that Lu Zheng was alright, and remembering that her father could indeed be a scolder, Gu Xin reluctantly said goodbye.
Huo Junhao then realized that today wasn't his day off! If his sisters didn't get scolded when they got back, he would definitely get scolded, and not only that, he might not even get his monthly salary!
The group parted ways at the entrance.
The Gu family rode in a carriage, while Lu Zheng and Meng Meng walked.
Meng Meng had a great time drinking today and still wanted more. He grinned at Lu Zheng and said, "Next time, when Lao Xue comes, let's invite the Peng brothers for drinks again! That would be great!"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Sure! I'll treat you next time!"
Then Meng Meng started talking about the taste of the wine he had just drunk, praising Gu Shouxin's wine, even though he had drunk it before.
Lu Zheng listened to him with a smile on his lips, occasionally responding, and the atmosphere was harmonious as they walked all the way home.
