Chapter 293 Drunk
Qi Rui sniffed the wine in the glass. The aroma was so strong that he couldn't help but want to taste it.
After taking a sip, the taste is indeed as Lord Xue said, 'fragrant from the nine regions, one branch stands out, lingering fragrance, sweet in the mouth', so it can be called a good wine.
The food on the table...is also delicious.
Contracting out the canteen is a good thing.
When Qi Rui looked up, he saw Qi Xu eating with big mouthfuls of food, his cheeks bulging and oil dripping from the corners of his mouth. He did not have the demeanor of a nobleman from Kyoto at all. It was obvious how much he had been eating in Lianglin Village recently.
Qi Rui took a deep breath and suddenly felt that he was not as good at enjoying life as this kid.
He is always running around busy with official duties and never has a moment to rest, while this kid eats delicious food and drinks spicy drinks every day and has someone to accompany him when he goes out to play.
It's really annoying to compare people to each other!
Since the wine in front of him tasted good, he couldn't help but drink two more glasses.
“Try this sweet and sour fish and mushrooms, it’s super delicious.”
Qi Xu seemed to see his second brother's dissatisfaction, and picked up some food for him in a servile manner.
But Qi Rui ignored him and refused to eat whatever he picked up.
Just stubborn!
Qi Xu didn't want to pluck the tiger's mouth, so he just ate his own meal honestly. He shouldn't be too close to his second brother.
Uncle Zhou and Second Uncle don’t know about their relationship yet.
After Qi Xu had eaten, he ran into the house and helped look after Zhou Mingxiu.
Seeing his brother's free and easy back, Qi Rui felt that he had been too awkward just now. After all, he couldn't bear to waste such delicious food, so he ate it all without leaving any.
Since the previous dynasty, there has been a custom of men and women sitting at different seats.
Although the Zhou family received rewards and ran some business, they were still rural people after all.
If this whole table of food was placed in a county restaurant, it would be considered a sumptuous feast.
I don’t know if the Zhou family is trying to save face by putting all the good things outside. I don’t know what the old lady and the little girl in the house eat?
Could it be the wild vegetable as rumored? If so, they would be committing a great sin.
After all, Lord Xue and County Magistrate Niu were older than Qi Rui, so when they saw good wine, they would inevitably drink more. So they pulled each other to drink one cup after another.
Qi Rui left the table on the pretext of going to the toilet.
I strolled around the backyard to get some fresh air, then walked to the kitchen door and looked inside.
He had good eyesight. Even though the food on the table had been mostly eaten and its original appearance could no longer be seen, he could still tell that it was similar to the table he had just been on.
It seems that the Zhou family is more powerful than I thought. I was just overthinking it.
When Old Mrs. Zhou saw the figure at the door and then looked into the young man's misty eyes, she knew that the man was drunk.
"Master is drunk. Xiao Shen and Xiao Qi, you two should help him go to the house to rest. I will go and make some sobering soup."
Qi Xu looked over and saw that his second brother was indeed a little drunk. He didn't expect that the wine brewed by San Ya was so strong!
As far as he could remember, his second brother's alcohol tolerance was pretty good.
He and Shen Yang quickly waved their hands to support Qi Rui, one on each shoulder.
Qi Rui felt that the two men were trying to catch him. He exerted his strength and the two men spun in the air with his strength, and then fell on their butts.
"That's fucking bullshit! Second... Damn it!"
Only Qi Xu dared to curse, and he almost let himself be fooled.
Everyone who was drinking in the yard was frightened by this sudden change and quickly stood up and gathered around.
Qi Rui shook his head, feeling dizzy. He might be really drunk.
He didn't drink too much, just one, two, three, four... ninety cups.
"Hurry, hurry, hold on, hold on!"
Fortunately, Rufeng reacted quickly enough and propped Qi Rui's body up.
"My lord, you are drunk. Go to the bed in the room and sleep for a while." Old Mrs. Zhou suggested again.
Even if there is a huge task, you can't do it while drunk. You can only take a break.
Rufeng was also anxious. Looking at Qi Rui on his shoulder, his brows were furrowed.
Seeing the bedroom in front of him, he carried the person in directly.
The squirrel eating nuts at the door was startled and jumped onto the beam with its big tail erect.
When Zhou Mingshu saw someone enter her room, he quickly put down the steamed bun in his hand and ran over.
She had to tidy up the things on the bed anyway. After all, it was a girl's boudoir, and there were always some things that men shouldn't see.
When everyone saw that they went to San Ya's room, no one said anything.
They are a country family and don't have so many requirements.
Old Mrs. Zhou quickly brought over a teapot and asked Rufeng to feed Qi Rui a few cups.
In the past, when the sons in my family got drunk and felt uncomfortable, they would drink more tea so that they could vomit out the alcohol in their stomachs.
"Daya, go add some water to the pot. I'll make some hangover soup later."
Zhou Mingqin nodded and left. When the people in the room saw Qi Rui lying down obediently, they pushed him to go out for a drink.
Lord Xue and Magistrate Niu's cheeks looked a little red, but they were in good spirits.
"Old Niu, General Qi can't drink much. He's not even as good as you, haha."
"Yes, young people are still young, but we are old and our drinking capacity has also improved."
"That's true. Although this wine is good, we should not drink too much. There is still a long way to go, a long way to go~"
"I think so too. Eat more food and drink less alcohol."
Fortunately, the two people braked in time, otherwise Old Mrs. Zhou would have stolen the wine jar.
She tugged at Boss Zhou's sleeve and asked her sons to drink less.
Then he went into the kitchen to make some sobering soup, and everyone would drink some later.
Seeing that Lord Qi was relatively well behaved even though he was drunk, Zhou Mingshu felt relieved and continued to eat.
"Saya, that adult won't vomit on your bed, right?" Zhou Mingqi leaned over and whispered in Zhou Mingshu's ear.
"I shouldn't, I think he's sleeping soundly." In fact, she was unsure. If he really vomited, there would be nothing she could do. She would just have to change beds.
After lunch, Lord Xue and County Magistrate Niu took a short rest and then took a carriage to the construction site. This was the most important reason for their trip today.
Rufeng and others stayed behind and waited for Lord Qi to wake up from his drunkenness before returning directly to the city. The two of them were enough at the construction site.
Seeing that everyone had left, Boss Zhou and his companions went back to their rooms to rest.
They had a great time drinking today and they all felt a little dizzy.
There were still some duck feathers in the small yard that had not been cleaned up. When Uncle Liu Qing and a few others saw the adults leaving, they put on their aprons and hurried to clean them up.
After everyone returned to their seats, Zhou Mingshu carried the basin to the river.
Some snails had already come out of the river, and she wanted to pick some to add to the dish for her family.
Not long after, Zhou Minghua and Hu Zi also came running over.
"Third sister, I have fed Hu Zi."
"Oh, what did you feed it with?"
"Bones. Lots of bones."
Hu Zi is growing very fast. He is now twice as big as when he first came, but his belly is still round and the "baby fat" has not completely gone away.
