Red House Shoufu

Chapter 265 Drunkenness
Qian Mo's family married into the Qian family and gave birth to two sons and a daughter. The two sons were educated by their parents to enroll as teenagers. Today, both parties are officials in other places.

The official position may not be obvious, but the reputation is excellent.The only daughter also married into a poor family. It is said that the son-in-law failed several times in the test, and Jinke did not participate in the Jinke Grand Competition to avoid Qian Qianli as the chief examiner.

Daiyu and the others were all from a scholarly family, so they naturally saw that Qian Moshi was missing her children, so they temporarily played the role of entertaining relatives in Caiyi, and accompanied Qian Moshi to chat and laugh in front of the beautiful scenery of wintersweet blooms Laughing, playing around for a long time.

The luncheon in the Qian Mansion was cooked by Qian Moshi himself. Daiyu and Wang Yuan have been taught by Wang Xiaoshi in the past few years, and they still have some experience in cooking.

Seeing that Qian Moshi was busy, he helped to cook some Jiangnan dishes.The rest of the people also wanted to help, but most of them were official women who didn't touch the spring water with their five fingers. They didn't know how to do kitchen things, and they made several jokes.

"This daughter's family still needs to learn some cooking skills. Even the eldest grandson empress of Tang Dynasty can make good soup."

Qian Moshi wiped the hands of the girl who spilled the soup with a handkerchief, smiled and asked several people to help him bring the prepared meals to the table.

She took out a small jar from Qian Qianli's study, opened the beeswax, and the tangy aroma of wine spread out.

"This is the royal wine that the old man has hidden for many years, and it was given by the sage when the Imperial Academy was closed. Come, girls, have a few drinks with the old lady!"

The aroma of the wine is charming, and after taking a sip of the wine, the pretty faces of the girls turned pink.Qian Moshi pinched their faces one by one, and laughed.

After all, it is a girl's house, Qian Moshi will not let a few people get drunk.After just tasting it, I asked the servant girl to bring up the hangover soup that I had prepared earlier.

When the meal was over, Qian Mo took a few people to appreciate the plum blossoms and wrote poems, and she herself even wrote several Fu, all of which were excellent works.

When the banquet was over, Daiyu had already recorded the poems written by everyone today into a book, and Qian Mo asked people to keep them, saying that they would send them to the mansion after the publication was published.

……

Jia Lian and Lin Shu each helped Wang Qi and Wang Huan out of the palace gate. After helping the drunken father and son into the carriage, they told the servants of the Wang family to take them back to the mansion first. He will send it back in person in a while.

"Why would father want to drink Uncle Wang's wine today..."

After Lin Shu heard Jia Lian's words, he remembered that Jia She got several people drunk one after another in the main hall, and even wanted to take the jug to the emperor's throne to pour wine for the emperor, and said with a smile: "I guess uncle is happy that my friend returned to Beijing safely. I want to share it with people."

Just as he was talking, Jia She and Zhongshun Wang Gao Yongheng walked out of the palace shoulder to shoulder, both of them staggering, and the eldest son Gao Wanjiang and the two inner eunuchs followed carefully.

"Nephew, why didn't I see you just now, I was thinking of having a few drinks with you!"

Jia Amnesty seemed to be completely let go of his temperament, quite as free and easy as he was when he was high-spirited. He completely ignored the civil and military officials who were looking sideways, and loudly shouted that he would take a few people to the South Lake Painting Boat to see the power of popular female roles.

Gao Yongheng handed Jia Amnesty to Jia Lian in disdain: "Your father is drunk again, take him home quickly. Last time he was drunk and insisted on dragging me to the South Lake for a boat trip, so I was almost taken away by the princess after returning home." Ear twisted off..."

"Father……"

Gao Wanjiang, who was standing by, covered his father's mouth and pushed Gao Yongheng into the carriage regardless of his struggle and the servants.

Gao Wanjiang said goodbye to several people with a wry smile: "I made you two laugh, and the words of drunkenness can't be true, can't be true..."

Lin Shu and Jia Lian pretended they hadn't heard anything, and bid farewell to Gao Wanjiang.After the two of them stuffed Jia She into the carriage of Rongguo Mansion, Lin Shu drove to Zhengxifang.

……

"Have you guys been drinking?"

Lin Shu looked at Daiyu and Wang Yuan with flushed faces in the carriage, and said in surprise: "It seems that my teacher's wife doesn't stick to common etiquette."

Daiyu's drinking capacity should be smaller. After returning to the warm compartment, she curled herself into a ball and fell asleep in Wang Yuan's arms.

Lin Shu told the driver to drive carefully, and after slowing down, he chatted with Wang Yuan in a low voice.

Wang Yuan wrapped Daiyu into a ball with the blanket prepared in the car, and reminded Lin Shu: "Brother Lin will make some hangover soup after Brother Lin returns home later. It’s not obvious, the stamina of this wine is really not small.”

Lin Shu nodded, looked at Wang Yuan who carefully reminded himself, and said with a smile that both the two families were drunk today.He told Wang Yuan about Wang Qi's father getting drunk at the banquet in the womb, especially the funny stories about Jia She and Wang Qi's family's mutual pouring, which made Wang Yuan laugh.

"It seems that Uncle Jia is not angry at the son of the Wang family for taking Jia's daughter away. When my father sobers up tomorrow, I must remind my father to invite Uncle Jia to a banquet. The winner will be determined at the wine table!"

Wang Yuan's face was reddish, and the smell of wine wafted from her nose as she spoke.Lin Shu couldn't help moving closer to Wang Yuan, and the expressions of the two gradually became obsessed.

Lin Shu already felt the warm breath from the increasingly clear aroma of wine on the tip of his nose, and as the carriage shook gently, his lips touched the soft warmth.

At this time, Daiyu turned over a little, awakening the two people who were addicted to love.

Like a frightened little rabbit, Wang Yuan looked down at Daiyu who was still arching her stomach, and found that she hadn't woken up, so she smiled and glared at Lin Shu.

The picturesque eyebrows and affectionate eyes made Lin Shu even more obsessed.The two exchanged eye contact, and with the creaking sound of the carriage wheels crushing the snow, they arrived at the gate of Wang's house.

……

When Daiyu woke up again, it was already evening, Lin Shu flicked Daiyu's forehead with his hand, and said with a smile, "You're home, little drunkard!"

Daiyu rubbed her eyes in a daze, and wrinkled her nose slightly: "This carriage smells of alcohol, it's not good!"

Wang Momo fetched a thick robe and wrapped Daiyu tightly in the carriage, who was still in a daze, and then helped her get out of the carriage.

Daiyu watched the snowflakes fluttering under the lighted lights, and excitedly said to Lin Shu, "Brother, I want to hold a banquet some other day, how about a poetry meeting? I want to invite my sisters to hold a poetry meeting at home." , it would be best to set up a poetry club..."

Lin Shu looked at Daiyu dancing happily in the snow, and Wang Momo and Xueyan next to her couldn't stop holding an umbrella and draping clothes for Daiyu, stepped forward and held down Daiyu who was a little excited, and said, "Okay, okay, everything is fine. Do as my sister said, hold a poetry meeting, set up a poetry club!"

After everything was settled, Lin Shu returned to the study.Today, on the way to meet Zhongshun Wang Gaoyong outside Beijing, the question of the teacher Qian Qianli still echoed in my ears.

The people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least.This is not a simple sage's words, but the biggest difference between his current status as an official and a Confucian scholar.

How to view his own identity, how to integrate the two identities of Confucianism and officialdom, and how to implement his own life philosophy in the future, he needs to think carefully.
