He Jinshu looked at Chen Zhen's smug expression and did not answer his question. Instead, he said, "Let's go. It's time to go to the next table."
After hearing this, Chen Zhen pulled He Jinshu to the next table.
After a round of toasts, the banquet was almost coming to an end.
He Jinshu followed Chen Zhen back to his seat. Because he was drinking fruit wine and Chen Zhen gave him a small cup, he was not drunk, but his face was a little hot.
The last dish of the banquet was sour soup meatballs. When Mother Shen saw the two of them coming back, she gave each of them a bowl of soup so that they could relieve the taste of alcohol.
After finishing a bowl of soup, Shen Chen and He Jinshu didn't wait for the last fruit plate to be served. They just said something to Shen's mother and took He Jinshu home first.
Ah Shu's face was too red, he had to take him back to sober him up.
"Ah Shu, are you really not drunk?" Chen Chen asked He Jinshu as he walked forward.
He Jinshu shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not drunk, just a little hot."
When Chen Zhen heard this, he said, "Then let's go home first. I'll cool you down when we get home."
He Jinshu nodded and said yes.
After arriving home, Chen Zhen asked He Jinshu to cook in the main room, while he went to the kitchen and soon came out with a piece of cotton cloth and a basin of crushed ice.
"Ah Shu, take this and apply it on your face to cool down." Chen Chen handed the ice cubes wrapped in cotton cloth to He Jinshu and said.
He Jinshu asked in surprise, "Where did you get the ice?"
"I made it myself." Shen Zhen said proudly.
After saying that, he said, "You apply the paste here, I'll make you a glass of ice juice." After saying this, without waiting for He Jinshu to respond, he turned around and went to the kitchen.
Not long after, Chen Zhen brought out a pot of iced juice, and the two of them sat in the main room and drank the juice together.
After He Jinshu drank a glass of ice juice, the heat on his face subsided a lot and his skin was not as red.
Seeing that he had finished drinking, Chen Zhen poured him another cup. He Jinshu looked at the light yellow juice in the cup and asked Chen Zhen, "What fruit is this made of?"
"Loquats picked from the mountains." Chen Chen replied, "How are they? Are they delicious?"
He Jinshu nodded and said, "It tastes quite good." He had never seen this kind of fruit in his life.
"In July, there will be a lot of ripe fruits in the mountains. When you have a holiday, I will take you to the mountains to pick some fruits."
"How do you know so many fruits?"
Chen Zhen thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. Isn't it normal to know these fruits?"
This is really not normal at all, He Jinshu thought to himself, take the loquat for example, not to mention that he has never seen it, but probably people in the surrounding villages have rarely seen it. And even if they have seen it, even if they know it is edible, they certainly don’t know the name of this fruit.
But he didn't discuss this topic with Chen Zhen anymore.
After a while, all the people from the Shen family came back from the threshing ground.
After Shen's mother sat down in the main hall, she asked Chen Zhen, "Are you going to stay here tonight?"
When a married man returns to his parents' home, if he and his brother-in-law stay at his parents' home for one night, it represents closeness, indicating that the mother-in-law is very satisfied with the son-in-law, and that the son-in-law is very close to his parents-in-law.
Chen Chen shook his head and said, "No, Ah Shu has to go to school tomorrow, and we still have to go home and pack our things."
After hearing this, Mother Shen did not try to persuade him to stay. She just said, "Then take a sheep back with you when you leave. Go back and replenish your body."
"No, there's no place to put the sheep. If we want to eat mutton, we can just buy it ourselves." Chen Chen refused.
But this time, Mother Shen did not obey Shen Zhen's wishes. Instead, she turned to He Jinshu and said, "Jinshu, bring a sheep back from home. You have worked hard in studying, so you should eat more mutton to nourish your body."
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why do you insist on us taking mutton back?" Chen Chen asked a little puzzled.
Mother Shen rolled her eyes at him and didn't answer him, her eyes still looking at He Jinshu.
He Jinshu didn't understand why Mother Shen insisted that they take the mutton back, but seeing that Mother Shen was so persistent, he couldn't refuse, so he agreed.
Seeing that Chen Zhen was about to retort, he persuaded her, "It's okay. We won't put it in the carriage. We can just tie it to the side with a rope and let it follow the carriage."
After hearing this, Chen Zhen compromised and said, "Okay then."
Seeing this, Mother Shen nodded in satisfaction, and then instructed the two of them, "Kill it and eat it when you get back, understand?"
Chen Zhen nodded perfunctorily to show that he understood, but at the same time he was thinking in his heart that eating mutton in such a hot day would not cause him to get a nosebleed due to inflammation.
After sitting at home for a while, Chen Chen and He Jinshu said goodbye to everyone in the Shen family, and then returned to Wujia Village with a sheep.
After greeting Grandma He when they got home, He Jinshu asked Chen Chen, "Brother Chen, where did you put the books I bought yesterday?"
"It's on the cabinet on the left side of the main hall." Chen Chen said as he led the sheep to the backyard.
Upon hearing this, He Jinshu went to the main room and saw a pile of books he bought yesterday on the cabinet.
So he took the book to the study and closed the door.
After sitting down at the desk, He Jinshu took out the two booklets that were sandwiched between the imperial examination books. He first listened to the movement outside the door, and found no sign of Chen Chen coming, so he opened a booklet and started reading.
There are two booklets, one is a novel-like reading material, which tells the story of a rich young man who picked up a poor boy on the roadside. It has fewer plots and pictures, and mostly contains colorful content.
The other booklet is of an instructional nature, containing various postures and pictures, and can also teach you various techniques, and more.....
He Jinshu opened the first book. The open words and love words inside made He Jinshu blush. He suppressed his shame and continued to read.
After reading a lot of exaggerated descriptions, he finally found the answer he wanted.
"After three quarters of an hour of lovemaking, the young man finally... calmed his breath, and then the two began a new round of sex. That night, they tirelessly made love six or seven times, and finally, as daylight was about to break, they fell into a deep sleep in each other's arms."
Three quarters of an hour? Once? He Jinshu just looked at the number on the booklet, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
Thinking about it, the two times combined took less than a quarter of an hour, and in an instant his face turned blue and red, his expression kept changing, and the expression on his face was very interesting.
Then I remembered that Chen Zhen said it would take at least half an hour, so half an hour is equal to three-quarters of an hour?
Then I remembered Chen Zhen saying he was too fast and had premature ejaculation. So premature ejaculation meant a short duration? Did it mean he was not good enough?
Thinking of this, He Jinshu's face became even gloomier, and he clenched the booklet in his hand tightly, crumpling it.
