Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 1252 Unfortunately, it was not always the case.
The old lady laughed, laughing without restraint, "Kid, you've never drunk alcohol before? You're just drunk. What poisoning? You almost overdosed and died."

Kournikova stared wide-eyed at the old woman and asked, "If I'm not poisoned, then how come I'm drunk?"

"Your old ox took you to my wine cellar, a thousand-year-old wine cellar. How could you not get drunk?" the old lady said, looking at the poor child.

"You mean, Mercedes knew this, and knew I was drunk, and it deliberately brought me here?" Kournikova asked.

The old lady nodded helplessly.

Kournikova's face turned bright red. "What about Linglong?"

The old lady said, "She was really drunk. She's too young and hasn't experienced much. She thought she was poisoned. When she woke up, she felt she had been cheated, so she drank another glass of wine and went back to sleep."

Kournikova fainted, he fainted from anger, because he was almost killed by Linglong's words.

The old lady looked at the unconscious Kournikova, shrugged, and muttered to herself, "What can I do? I'm so kind. She'll have to have a drink with me later."

"Good my ass, get lost." The sudden voice almost scared the old lady to death. She turned her head to look.

"Sister, look what I've come to! Sister, I've missed you so much!" The old lady was extremely excited, even throwing away her cane, and rushed straight towards the person who came after her.

"Stop! Stop right there! Why are you drooling? Get out!" the newcomer shouted impatiently.

Just then, a little child spoke up, "Grandma, why are there two grandmas?"

"Are you stupid? Can't you see my white hair?" Grandma Wen said.

Upon hearing this, Ugly Girl immediately fell silent, ran straight to Kournikova's side, and started pushing her.

Grandma Wen asked directly, "What's wrong with him?"

"It's nothing serious. He was just drunk, then he overdosed on drugs and got poisoned. I'm using traditional methods to detoxify him," the black-haired grandmother said, still somewhat excited.

Grandma Wen looked at her carefully and said, "The nickname 'Drunken Butterfly' is just a nickname. Why do you always live such a drunken and decadent life?"

"Sister, I don't want to live a life of debauchery. What do you think I should do? Go back to being a powerful figure?" the black-haired grandmother said helplessly.

"Wait, what are you doing here? Where did you go? Wait, I'm a little confused. Sister, you can't leave. Let me calm down for a bit, then we can talk." The black-haired grandma disappeared in a daze.

Grandma Wen said dismissively, "Still so useless."

Seeing that Kournikova was alright, and that Grandma Wen was alright too, she found a stone bench, sat down, and started sewing shoe soles again.

Seeing that Kournikova was still unconscious and her grandmother was unharmed, Ugly Girl stopped making a fuss, ran over to sit next to her grandmother, and said, "The smell of alcohol is really awful."

Grandma Wen smiled, "It smells bad, but it's worry-free." Ugly Girl looked at Kournikova and nodded vigorously.

When Kournikova woke up again, he saw two grandmothers, one with white hair and one with black hair, drinking and laughing together. Then he fainted again because he saw two ugly girls drinking together.

"Brother, you're all better now, why are you pretending to faint?" Ugly Girl said, pulling on her brother.

Kournikova then realized it was Ugly Girl and roared, "Linglong, change back to your original form!"

With a whoosh, Linglong transformed back to her original form, saying, "I knew you'd like that."

"Grandma, what are you up to now?" Kournikova asked, looking at her grandmother.

"Come, kowtow. This is your second grandmother, my sister, Wenguang, also known as Drunken Butterfly," Grandma said calmly.

Kova knelt down in front of the black-haired old lady with a thud, kowtowed, and said, "Greetings, Second Grandmother. Thank you for saving my life."

"Okay, get up. Wait a minute, no, sister, this isn't right?" Second Grandma started rambling again.

Kournikova was now kneeling, unsure whether to get up or not, and she was completely stunned.

Grandma Wen looked at Kova and said, "Get up." "This is my grandson, Chen Wen. What you know is all from many years ago. Now you just need to know that this is my grandson, and also your grandson, and that's enough," Grandma Wen said to Second Grandma.

Second Grandma said, "They say drunkenness is like a dream, and in my dream I even have a grandson, which is a good thing. But sister, you're not being fair. We agreed to grow old together, but you ran away."

Grandma turned to look at Kova and said, "Go and whip that stupid ox a few times. If it weren't for it, you wouldn't be taking drugs. You need to find the root of the problem."

Kournikova, sharpening her knife, headed straight for the lawn in front of the house; she had already spotted the Mercedes.

Kournikova and her grandmother stayed for about thirty days. When Kournikova wanted to go out and see the world, Ugly Girl and Linglong stood in front of him with tears in their eyes.

Kournikova had no choice but to take on the kitchen job again, since she had nothing else to do.

One day, Grandma grabbed Kournikova and said, "I used to get drunk once a day, but now I get drunk every time you cook a meal. That's three times a day. No, you have to give me an extra midnight snack too."

From then on, Drunken Canyon changed to four meals a day, and the air was filled with the aroma of wine.

Until one day, the second grandmother said, "Grandson, you're with me now, what's mine is yours."

The next day, Grandma Wen led the large group back to Xishan, passing through Baishan Town.

After returning to the West Hill, Kournikova stopped going out because he felt like he was constantly trying to fart but couldn't, while Big Ben roared at his door every day.

Grandma found Kova and said, "The owner of the steamed bun shop was the first to run away with his son. Guess who was the second to run away?"

Kournikova thought for a moment and said, "Blind Zhang."

Grandma smiled and said, "Widow Chen."

Kova was taken aback and asked, "What does Widow Chen have to do with this? Could it be..."

Grandma nodded and said, "It was Widow Chen who betrayed you. When Bai Nanshan found her, her whole family had gone to Zhongzhou, leaving her to give us an explanation. She did it for her two foolish sons, who had both gone to the palace guards."

"Such a huge price, just for me?" Kournikova was surprised.

"It's not for you, it's for the treasures in the mist, those divine weapons and artifacts. I've heard that the Ten Great Divine Artifacts are all inside the mist."

Kournikova was silent for a moment, then said, "Grandma, I don't think it's safe here. Should we go somewhere else?"

Grandma felt a little uncomfortable and said with her head down, "Where in Wuzhou is it safe? I don't care about myself, I just hope that you and Ugly Girl can grow up happily, but now someone is not giving us that chance."

Kournikova said, "There's still a chance. What about Linglong? She's hope."

Grandma was taken aback and said, "Linglong and Chouwa are watching the big ox in the front yard."

Kournikova shouted, "Linglong!"

Linglong skipped over from outside, "What's up, brother?"

Kournikova said seriously, "I took the medicine you gave me, how can I understand my little world? If I don't understand it, no one will cook for you tomorrow."

Linglong said, "Haven't you read the book 'The Way of Nature'? Just follow the instructions in the book to cultivate. You're already at the Spirit Transformation stage, so you should have divine sense. You can find it by looking inward."

After hesitating for a while, Kournikova finally said, "I don't understand."

Linglong patted Kuva on the head, and Kuva felt enlightened instantly. Linglong said, "Try to understand it yourself. The reason you didn't understand before is because you didn't take the pills I gave you."

Kova sat cross-legged on the kang (a heated brick bed), while her grandmother and Linglong left the room.

Kournikova's head is full of too much stuff; she hasn't digested it all yet, and she really needs to digest it properly this time.
