Xiao Yan, quick-witted, sprang up and snatched a wine jug from Si Yi's hand, tilting his head back and pouring it into his mouth.
"Too slow, drink faster." Gu Linchao noticed that he was putting on a good show, but his actual drinking movements were very slow.
Physician Lin said that one must drink this wine quickly and in large quantities to get drunk.
Just as Si Yi was about to step forward, Xiao Yan quickened his pace.
Before long, Xiao Yan finished the entire pot of wine, and with a loose grip, the empty pot rolled to the ground.
He lay back on the ground again, and before the drunkenness took hold, he said worriedly, "After I fall asleep, you must take me back to the manor."
Gu Linchao said, "Where did you just come from? If you get drunk later, you can just go back there."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was horrified and quickly got up. "No way! I'm so handsome, it's too dangerous for me to go there while I'm asleep. Those women are all like wolves and tigers, they'll take advantage of me while I'm asleep! No way, you can't be so immoral... hiccup!" As he spoke, he let out a loud burp.
Gu Linchao gave him a meaningful look but didn't say anything.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan scrambled out of the room.
No, he had to get back to the manor before he fell asleep.
However, he forgot that running like that would only hasten the onset of the alcohol's effects.
He had just run outside the door when he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Before he lost consciousness, a thought flashed through his mind: Heaven is going to destroy me.
Si Yi asked Gu Linchao for instructions, "Should we throw the Duke of Jingguo into a brothel?"
"Send him back to his residence," Gu Linchao said calmly.
He was just trying to scare Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan is always carefree and irresponsible, acting without any regard for consequences. Last time, he even invited Wen Nong Nong to drink, causing her to fall into a coma for three days and three nights. He won't learn his lesson until he teaches him a lesson.
The next day.
Having nothing else to do, Wen Nongnong returned to the Wen residence.
She wanted to ask Wen Tingyun how the plans were going.
Unfortunately, none of the men in the Wen family were there when she arrived.
But now that we've returned to the Wen residence, we must pay our respects to Old Madam Wen.
Madam Xu and Lu Yingying accompanied her to Fu'an Hall.
"That Madam Chen has been here for a while now, she's still with your grandmother," Madam Xu suddenly said on the way there.
Wen Nongnong had no idea who Madam Chen was and was completely confused.
Lu Yingying squeezed her fingers and reminded her, "Mrs. Chen loves to visit other people's homes and talk about everyday matters."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong immediately understood. It seemed that this so-called Madam Chen was a gossip.
"I understand." She nodded.
When the three entered Fu'an Hall, Madam Chen was indeed still there. She was talking to Old Madam Wen about something, and she was startled when she saw the three of them come in.
"What's wrong with Madam Chen? She seemed quite startled when she saw us coming," Madam Xu said with a smile.
Madam Chen looked somewhat embarrassed. "Look at what you're saying, Madam. I was just very surprised to see the Regent's Consort." After saying that, she immediately stood up and bowed to Wen Nongnong. "Greetings, Your Highness."
“Madam Chen, there’s no need for such formalities.” Wen Nongnong raised her hand slightly, then asked curiously, “What did you and my grandmother talk about just now? I saw that she seemed very happy. Could you tell us so we can have a laugh too?”
Madam Chen smiled and glanced at Old Madam Wen.
Wen Nongnong saw this and smiled slightly. She stepped forward and bowed to Old Madam Wen, saying, "Grandmother."
