Chapter 226 Banquet! Drunk!
To celebrate the few of them graduating from high school, the banquet was held directly in the large field in front of the Qin family's gate.
The tables were brought from home by each household and were filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat. The women were busy pouring steaming soup from the big pot.
Qin Qingyuan supported the clan leader and sat at the top of the table, followed by the important elders of the family, and finally him, his younger brother Qin Qingyun, and his brother-in-law Gu Jinghuai.
Even Zhang Xiucai, the elder, was invited to take a seat. He was very excited and proud.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the atmosphere became more and more lively.
The villagers took turns to come forward to toast. The old man whispered a few words in the ear of the clan leader, who then told them to just have a few sips so as not to drink too much and delay tomorrow's business.
The villagers naturally understood. They came to toast just to have fun, not to get the three of them drunk.
When everyone saw them taking a small taste, they quickly tried to stop them, fearing that they would get drunk and be punished by the village head.
But when the three of them drank the wine they toasted, they felt happy.
Everyone was drinking happily. From today on, Qinjia Village will hold a buffet banquet for ten consecutive days to entertain the villagers and guests who come to celebrate.
The clan leader and the village head had already discussed this money, and the clan would pay for it. In the past two years, the people of Qinjia Village had made a lot of money by following Qin Zhizhi.
As the night deepened, some villagers lit lanterns. The large field in front of the Qin family's house was brightly lit and filled with laughter and joy.
Qin Zhizhi looked at the sincere smiling faces of the people in Qinjia Village and suddenly understood the meaning of returning home in glory.
When Ning Xuan, Gu Jinghuai and Ning Xuan were returning from the field, Ning Xuan was a little drunk, and Ning Ning carefully supported him.
"You can't hold your liquor, but you accept everything. Tomorrow you'll have a headache, and you'll see who to cry to."
Ning Ning's face was full of heartache. She saw with her own eyes that the villagers came to toast her, and her second brother drank it all without refusing any of it.
"Don't worry, sister Ning'er. I'll make some hangover soup when I get home. Be happy today. You see, your second brother isn't the only one who's drunk."
Qin Zhizhi knew that Ning Ning was worried about Ning Xuan, so she quickly spoke to comfort her.
"Thank you, Sister Zhizhi. I shouldn't have wasted your hangover soup by letting him drink so much."
Ning Ning was not angry that her second brother drank, but that he drank it all every time.
"Don't stop me, I can still drink."
Gu Shi was so drunk that his mother really wanted to leave him here without helping him.
It was not only Ning Xuan who accepted everyone who came, but also Gu Shi who came to Qinjia Village for the first time. The villagers were warm and sincere, and there was no reason to refuse any glass of wine.
"Husband, you and your second brother should help mother support father."
Qin Zhizhi had to lean on her mother-in-law when taking care of the child. She was afraid that her mother-in-law would be tired, so she called Gu Jinghuai and Gu Jingshu for help.
But Gu Shi was not happy.
"Don't even think about separating my wife and me. Go away, bad guys. I need my wife to support me."
It was the first time Qin Zhizhi saw a father-in-law like this and she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Gu's mother's face was flushed, but luckily it was night and no one could see it.
Mother Gu felt that she had never been so embarrassed before, and in front of her children.
Ning Ning suddenly felt that although her second brother was drunk, he was still quite well behaved, much better than Gu Shi.
Qin Qingyun was helping Ning Ning support Ning Xuan. He couldn't bear to see the little girl unhappy, so he decided to watch over Ning Xuan for the next few days.
To prevent him from getting drunk again and making Ning Ning worry about him.
"Brother Qingyun, are you okay?" Ning Ning saw Qin Qingyun drank a lot of wine in the evening, and she was a little worried that Qin Qingyun was also drunk.
"Ning'er, I'm fine, don't worry!" Although Qin Qingyun had drunk some wine, he was not drunk.
Qin Qingyuan also drank a lot today. He and Gu Yunfei walked at the back.
Taking advantage of the night, Qin Qingyuan quietly took Gu Yunfei's hand.
Gu Yunfei looked forward first, and was relieved when she found that no one was looking in her direction.
When Qin Qingyuan held her hand, Gu Yunfei felt like her heart was about to jump out. Fortunately, it was night and Qin Qingyuan could not see her blushing face.
Gu Yunfei's palms were sweating from nervousness, and Qin Qingyuan placed his thumb on her palm, trying to wipe the sweat away.
Gu Yunfei felt Qin Qingyuan's actions and her face turned even redder.
Qin Qingyuan knew she was shy, so he whispered in her ear, "Princess, the Emperor has granted us marriage."
The reason why Qin Qingyuan dared to be so blatant was that he relied on the fact that the emperor had already granted him and Gu Yunfei a marriage.
Gu Yunfei nodded gently, but still couldn't control her excitement.
After all, this was the first time in her life that she was pulled by a man like this, and in this environment, the person in front might turn back at any time.
Gu Yunfei wanted to pull her hand back, but Qin Qingyuan held it even tighter.
"Princess, I feel a little dizzy!" Qin Qingyuan leaned towards Gu Yunfei again.
Gu Yunfei thought Qin Qingyuan was drunk, and did not reject his approach, so she spoke gently.
"I'll hold you up for a bit. You'll feel better after you get home and drink some hangover soup."
"Well, I will listen to the princess."
Qin Qingyuan was so well-behaved that Gu Yunfei felt so soft-hearted.
Qin Qingyuan learned this trick from Gu Jinghuai. He could gain more by showing weakness and making himself look pitiful.
Gu Jinghuai is such a opinionated person, but he is more obedient than a cat in front of Qin Zhizhi.
Since I married my younger sister, I have never had a quarrel with her, and the relationship between the couple is getting better day by day.
Qin Qingyuan has always envied his sister and Gu Jinghuai, and also regards Gu Jinghuai as his goal.
Now he was just afraid that what he gave Gu Yunfei was not enough or good enough.
The group soon arrived at Gu's house. Qin Zhizhi and Gu Jinghuai first sent Gu Shi to Gu's mother's room.
Ning Ning and Qin Qingyun helped Ning Xuan to the guest room. Qin Zhizhi had arranged their accommodation.
Mrs. Qin had already arranged for someone to prepare the hangover soup. Seeing the few people coming back, she hurried to the kitchen to serve it to them.
Qin Qingyun helped Ning Xuan lie down on the bed and said to Ning Ning.
"You stay and take care of your second brother. I'll go get the sobering soup." Qin Qingyun said and went straight to the kitchen.
I met Gu Jinghuai in the kitchen who came to serve sobering soup.
"Second brother, please bring a bowl to eldest brother as well."
Gu Jinghuai felt that although Qin Qingyuan was not drunk, he had drunk a lot. Drinking a bowl of sobering soup would make him feel more comfortable when he woke up tomorrow.
"Jing Huai, just take good care of Uncle Gu. I'll take care of Brother Ning."
Gu Jinghuai nodded and reminded him, "Remember to drink a bowl too."
"I'm fine, no need to drink!"
Qin Qingyun felt that he was in good condition and did not need to drink sobering soup at all.
"Little girls don't like the taste!"
After Gu Jinghuai finished speaking, he took the sobering soup and left, leaving Qin Qingyun standing there for a long time to react.
After feeding Ning Xuan the sobering soup, Qin Qingyun called Ning Xuan's Xiao Si to help clean Ning Xuan's face and give him a simple wash.
Then he said to Ning Ning, "Ning'er, take care of my second brother first. I'll be back soon."
After leaving Gu's house, Qin Qingyun quickly returned to Qin's house, took a simple shower, and made sure that the smell of alcohol on him was gone before hurriedly returning to Gu's house.
