Chapter 344 Going Out for a Drink
Li Bixi was worried when she found out that Cheng Yunshuo had taken away the tea she had made.
She hurriedly sent people to look for Cheng Yunshuo, and when she learned that he had left the house, she became even more anxious.
As time passed, she could only comfort herself in her heart that Cheng Yunshuo did not notice anything unusual and just wanted to take the tea to drink in the barracks.
That night, Cheng Yunshuo did not return home.
Qingfeng told Lu Lingyun that Cheng Yunshuo went to find the Du brothers outside to drink, and after drinking too much, he stayed at the Du family's house.
After hearing this, Lu Lingyun responded.
Over the years, Cheng Yunshuo has been in contact with the Du brothers. After Du Ruo started to practice Buddhism with untied hair, it did not affect their relationship.
Even better than before.
Whenever they encountered major problems, Cheng Yunshuo would help them.
In the past few years, with the help of Cheng Yunshuo, the two brothers have become married and have wives.
When Lu Lingyun heard that Cheng Yunshuo was going to have a drink with them, she didn't notice anything different.
"Yun Shuo, what's wrong with you today? You're drinking so much."
Outside the tavern, Du Yang looked at Cheng Yunshuo who was drinking in a depressed mood and asked.
Cheng Yunshuo shook his head and forced a smile, "Nothing."
"You can fool others but you can't fool your brothers!"
"Yes! And there is nothing we can't talk about!"
The two brothers Du Yang and Du Tai talked about it.
Over the years, they have been helped by Cheng Yunshuo, so Cheng Yunshuo is closer than a real brother!
Originally, when their sister Du Ruo went to the temple to practice with her hair untied for unknown reasons, they were worried that Cheng Yunshuo would be unhappy and get mad at the Du family later. However, they didn't expect that Cheng Yunshuo's attitude towards them didn't change at all, and it was even better.
Whenever they encountered problems, they would ask Cheng Yunshuo for help. Cheng Yunshuo would not even blink and would do his best to help them, even more attentive than when Du Ruo was around.
"Is Aruo okay now?" Cheng Yunshuo asked under their questioning.
"Aru is doing very well. I went to see her last month and she is the same as before."
"Speaking of which, I still have to thank Young Madam. Although Aruo has been practicing in the temple for more than six years, Young Madam has provided her with all her food, clothing and other expenses during these six years. She has not been wronged in the slightest!"
Cheng Yunshuo's brows relaxed slightly when he heard what they said.
He didn't know whether it was because Lu Lingyun did everything behind his back and didn't give him any worries, or because Du Ruo didn't lack for food and clothing.
At this time, Du Tai held up the wine bowl and said, "Counting the days, Aruo will be out soon! She said she would mourn for her aunt for seven years. Now it's June, so she should be out in a few months."
Cheng Yunshuo, who was sitting next to him, had his eyes light up at this moment, "Aru, she's coming out."
"Yes!" Du Yang responded, "Yun Shuo, you have been wronged these years. Aruo is also a stubborn girl, she is thoughtless and has no rules. When she comes out this time, we will definitely educate her for you!"
"That's right, how could she be so willful? She said she wanted to observe mourning and then ran away. It's a pity that she married you. If it were someone else, they would have divorced her!"
Du Yang and Du Tai observed Cheng Yunshuo's expression as they talked, and when they saw that he fell silent again, they began to speak well of Du Ruo again.
"Yun Shuo, don't bother with that girl. When she comes out, we will teach her a lesson for you and then personally send her back to the mansion for you."
"Yes, Aruo's temper must have changed over the years. She is not the same as before. Give her another chance."
Du Yang and Du Tai were afraid that Cheng Yunshuo would no longer want Du Ruo. Their good sister was really lucky to marry Cheng Yunshuo, even if she was to be his concubine.
With her bad temper and her previous behavior, if it were someone else, she would probably have divorced and returned to her parents' home.
They didn't know what happened between the two of them, but from their perspective, Cheng Yunshuo was already a very good person.
Cheng Yunshuo has a high status, a good family background, is rich and powerful, and is also a righteous man. What could Du Ruo be dissatisfied with!
He had several concubines in his backyard, but these days, every powerful man had three wives and four concubines. Besides, she was just a concubine, not married to him as his principal wife, so how could she be so angry?
But it was precisely because of this that they were worried that Cheng Yunshuo would divorce Du Ruo and send her back to her parents' home.
As they were talking, Cheng Yunshuo fell silent again. He drank from his wine in big gulps and didn't respond to any of them. This really confused the brothers Du Yang and Du Tai.
Before long, Cheng Yunshuo was drunk.
"Yun Shuo, you are drunk, shall we take you home?" Du Yang said.
Hearing that he had to go back, the drunk Cheng Yunshuo immediately sobered up a bit and shouted, "I'm not going back!"
"Where are you going if you don't go back?"
"I'm not going back anyway!" Cheng Yunshuo was like a drunkard, resisting utterly, "I'm not going back, I'm not going back!"
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to go back, then come to our house." Du Yang looked at Du Tai, and the two of them mixed Cheng Yunshuo up together. After mixing him up, he said to Qingfeng, "Qingfeng, go back and tell him that your young master is staying at my house tonight."
"yes."
Qingfeng ran back swiftly.
Here, Du Yang and Du Tai carried Cheng Yunshuo towards their home. As soon as they walked out of the tavern, they ran into an old monk.
Cheng Yunshuo was drunk, and Du Yang and Du Tai were not much stronger, their steps were unsteady, and with this collision, they both took a step back, and Cheng Yunshuo, who was held in the middle, was thrown towards the old monk by the two of them.
The old monk was skinny and thin, with white hair and beard, but he looked like an old rookie. He caught Cheng Yunshuo steadily with one move.
Cheng Yunshuo, who was drunk, opened his eyes dazedly. He looked at the old monk in front of him, "You, who are you?"
"My Buddhist name is Yuanqing, Amitabha."
"What do you mean by round? What do you mean by clear?... I think your head is quite round..." Cheng Yunshuo's eyes were dull, and he stared at the other person's bald head with a silly smile.
Du Yang and Du Tai: "......"
"Yun Shuo, that's a master." Du Yang and Du Tai came to their senses. They hurried over and helped Cheng Yun Shuo over.
"What master? Who is the master? I don't want a master. I don't want anything. I don't want anyone." Cheng Yunshuo spoke in a daze.
"Yun Shuo, you've drunk too much." Du Yang and Du Tai lifted him up again. They looked at the old monk apologetically and said, "Master, I'm sorry."
“It’s okay, Amitabha.” The old monk chanted some Buddhist words with one hand and made way for them.
Du Yang and Du Tai carried Cheng Yunshuo back, and Cheng Yunshuo kept muttering to himself along the way.
"I'm not going back."
"No one asked you to go back!"
"She is not herself anymore. They will never come back. They don't want me anymore."
"What a mess! Who are you talking about?"
