Chapter 90 The Truth After Drinking

In the morning, Shen Shaoguang sat on the bed with the quilt closed, lifted the curtain of the bed and looked at the window.

There was a faint voice on the porch outside the door: "Is the little lady awake? The chicken soup dumplings made in the kitchen today are already wrapped. If the little lady gets up, they will be delivered."

A Yuan: "Wait a while, the little lady is still asleep."

Shen Shaoguang raised his voice in the room: "Get up."

A Yuan lifted the felt curtain and came in with a chill, and Ming Nu followed behind her.

A Yuangang helped Shen Shaoguang hook up the half-closed bed curtain, put away the pillow screen, and Ming Nu jumped onto Shen Shaoguang's quilt. Shen Shaoguang disliked: "Hey, hey, are you dirty, rolling on my quilt?"

Ming Nu rubbed her head against Shen Shaoguang, licked her hand again, and leaned back to reveal her belly.

Shen Shaoguang is helpless, aren't you an arrogant and cold cat? After the cat set collapsed, the tank broke and fell? While touching its head and face, scratching its chin, I thought, if someone related to your name was so coquettish, I would have disarmed and surrendered.

Shen Shaoguang simply buried his face on its belly, took a breath, um, there was nothing muddy, it was dry, and it seemed that he didn't have time to roll in the snow.

"It's slippery, just sat under the porch and admired the scenery for a while, then went back to the main room, jumped on the couch, and lay down on the cinnamon cloth hidden sac that the little lady usually uses."

Shen Shaoguang laughed. It was conceivable that a cat was sitting under the porch of the house, looking at the white snow calmly and solemnly, thinking about its cat life.

The more he thought about it, the more Coke, Shen Shaoguang raised Mingnu and faced it face to face: "Professor McGonagall, is that you? How about our Xuejing'er in Chang'an?"

A Yuan didn't know who Professor McGonagall was, so she only advised her: "Little lady, don't just play with cats, the bed is cold."

Shen Shaoguang put on her clothes in three times, put on her shoes and got out of bed. Another maid brought her hot and cold water and poured it into the cup and washbasin. After Shen Shaoguang washed, the maid handed her a bowl of ginger water.

Taking small sips of warm ginger water, Shen Shaoguang warmed up.

The maid was going to comb her hair, and Shen Shaoguang waved his hand, "You guys are busy with your work."

The maids brought chicken soup wontons, and a few of them ate together. Shen Shaoguang is not really a noble girl from an aristocratic family. She has no family rules, so she can achieve the same master and servant. It used to be the case when the four people were a small wine shop. Too many, not bad, they all gathered for dinner.

When you look at this stuffing, you know that it is made by the third princess. The pork is filled with some minced shrimp and jelly, which is very fresh! Now that the third princess is making soup, it has become better than blue. Shen Shaoguang felt a bit like a master who was photographed to death on the beach.

It's a holiday, the weather is bad, what can do? Shen Shaoguang led the maids to draw a picture to relieve the cold.

Because of the time, this picture was done with great precision, the servants all helped, and even Mingnu added a paw.

Before the picture was finished, the door came to report, Princess Fuhui arrived.

Shen Shaoguang hurried out to greet him.

"I thought, this kind of heavy snow must be shared by someone elegant, so I think of you." Princess Fuhui smiled.

Shen Shaoguang nodded: "I also wanted the eldest princess just now. Thinking of such a snowy day, it is suitable to do something elegant together, such as eating a pot or something."

The eldest princess laughed: "Don't pierce me! How do you know that I want to eat your pot?"

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "This is about - smart heads are always similar?"

Where did the eldest princess hear such slang words, she was overjoyed.

Shen Shaoguang held an umbrella, and Princess Fuhui held her other hand, and the two turned around the vestibule and the middle hall and entered the back house directly.

Shen Shaoguang was talking to the eldest princess, "Speaking of the head, I remembered another sentence. There is a proverb that says 'two heads are better than one head'. A Hu people little lady added half a sentence at the back—— on the pillow."①

Princess Fuhui smiled so much that she patted Shen Shaoguang's arm, and said while laughing, "I'm a Taoist! I'm a Taoist! I can't wait to meet."

Shen Shaoguang didn't smile, "The key is that she wrote this in her textbook, and her master is a monk..."

The eldest princess laughed more and more.

When they came to the corridor, Shen Shaoguang took the umbrella and handed it to A Yuan. Another maid opened the curtain. The two entered the hall and sat down separately. The maid held the red dates, wolfberry and ginger sugar drink, and some dried fruit cakes.

The eldest princess took a sip and glanced at the hall, "It's strange that someone as smart as you likes such simple and simple decorations."

Shen Shaoguang frowned and said with a smile: "Perhaps to hide these cleverness? It seems clumsy and straightforward."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "Speaking like this again!"

Shen Shaoguang argued with her: "It hurts to be stupid."

The emotional tutor Princess Fuhui said: "No, no, it all depends on whether that person cares about you. If you care, no matter how obedient you are, in his eyes, you will be weak, small and pitiful. If you don't care, it is true Stupid, I'm afraid I'm also suspected of ulterior motives." ②

Shen Shaoguang was speechless, how incisive what the eldest princess said!

Princess Fuhui was rather lonely, "I am the one who is obviously not very clever, but is always suspected of having ulterior motives, how unfortunate it is..."

Shen Shaoguang was thinking about how to comfort her, but Princess Fuhui smiled and said, "Fortunately, I don't care anymore."

Princess Fuhui changed the subject and asked Shen Shaoguang with a smile, "What are you doing at home when I come?"

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "Ying Ying'er, draw a picture of relieving the cold with the maids."

Shen Shaoguang asked someone to bring it, and the eldest princess painted with her, chatting while painting. What can we talk about? It's just a chat about eating, talking about Beijing's fashion, and talking about whatever comes to mind. It's not much different from chatting with future girlfriends.

After the drawing was done, it was noon. The servants set the table and brought two milk soup pots, as well as various pieces of meat, fish balls, vegetables, tofu, etc., and a jar of rice wine.

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "This jar of wine is said to be an old wine that has been stored for more than ten years. I'm not good at drinking it. The eldest princess will try it."

Princess Fuhui is indeed good at drinking, and said with a smile, "I'll help you learn it."

Shen Shaoguang cooked the wine, picked up a few candied plums that were served earlier, and threw them in it. After warming it up, pour it to Princess Fuhui in person.

"It's very mellow, it's really a good wine for more than ten years." Princess Fuhui nodded, and smiled again, "You can add plums, too, with a touch of sour plum sweetness, which is especially refreshing. Green plum wine, I didn’t know there was such a way to drink it.”

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "If it's summer, it's better to drink it with ice."

Princess Fuhui smiled and said, "I'll drink this iced one when the summer solstice comes."

The two ate the pot, drank wine, and chatted.

"I heard that people in the south make wine. When their daughter is born, they bury the wine in the ground, and when the daughter leaves the court, they dig out the guests, so it is called "daughter wine," and it is also called "daughter red." It's fragrant." The eldest princess said.

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "I also heard that if it is Xiaoerlang, then the wine will be called Zhuangyuanhong."③

The eldest princess smiled and said, "It may be more practical to call it a 'jinshi wine', how can there be so many champions?"

The eldest princess had seen a lot of Jinshi, so she thought it was easy. Shen Shaoguang and her popularized science, "It's not easy to get a Jinshi. There is a saying in the market that there are 'fifty few Jinshi'. How many people can't pass the test for a lifetime."

"So, Lin Yan, Pei Fei and other people who have been awarded the jinshi at a young age are still amazing people?"

Shen Shaoguang said objectively: "Jueyan Bujueyan doesn't know, at least he has some real skills."

In the end, the two brought the topic to the Langjuns again.

Princess Fuhui felt helpless to Shen Shaoguang's counseling, "I tell you, men are impatient, don't think about him waiting for you for a lifetime. If you don't marry him, he will always marry a wife and have children. With your temperament, you must have forgotten each other in the rivers and lakes. You have never even slept, thank you..."

Shen Shaoguang nodded, thinking about how many years later, when he would meet Lin Yan again, he brought a bunch of servants and maids, and maybe Lin Yan accompanied his wife. The two bowed far away and went their separate ways. The lady might ask, "Who is that lady?" Lin Yan might say, "That's Shen Ji's heroine, and Shen Ji's pot is delicious." Thinking of this, Shen Shaoguang's heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney ached.

Princess Fuhui shook her head, "Promising!" But thinking about herself, she doesn't seem to be very promising. That's all, Ah Da doesn't talk about Ah Er, "Don't talk about them, drink, drink!"

The two raised their glasses, drained the wine in the glasses, and poured them again.

This mellow brew with candied plums is quite palatable, and the two of them drink a little more. In the end, Shen Shaoguang was concerned that he was facing the eldest princess, so he kept it a little clear, but the eldest princess Fuhui really drank too much, so that she was a little shaken when she left.

Shen Shaoguang persuaded her, "It's not too late, if the eldest princess doesn't dislike it, lie down here with me and then leave."

Princess Fuhui waved her hand, "I'll come back to find you another day, I'm really happy today!"

The maids supported her, and Shen Shaoguang sent them off behind her. Seeing her get into the car, the two said a few words through the car window and watched her car go away before Shen Shaoguang came back.

A Yuan supported her, "Little lady can't walk straight anymore."

Shen Shaoguang looked back at the footprints, it was okay.

The maids cleaned up the leftovers, and Shen Shaoguang looked at the half-jug of wine Wenguo left, "Leave this for me."

A Yuan asked in surprise: "Little lady still drinking?"

Shen Shaoguan sat on the couch on his knees, frowned and thought for a while, "I didn't drink enough."

I didn't drink it... I was obviously drunk! But just like Shen Shaoguang couldn't bear to tell A Yuan to quit sweet and meat, A Yuan saw her like that and left the wine in the end, "Just drink this and go to bed after drinking?"

Shen Shaoguang smiled when she heard her instructing a child, "I know, long-winded."

A Yuan asked her if she wanted food and drink, Shen Shaoguang shook his head, pointing to the preserved fruit on the table.

When Lin Yan came, he saw Shen Shaoguang with one leg straight and the other bent, half leaning on the two hidden sacs, eating a sour plum, and taking a sip of wine from the pot.

Shen Shaoguang squinted at him and greeted him with a smile: "Lin Langjun, why are you here? Isn't there a banquet today?"

"I met the eldest princess outside the square."

Shen Shaoguang nodded and tilted his head to look at him, "You don't seem to drink much today."

"Well, you drank too much."

Shen Shaoguang squinted and smiled, "I had a good chat with the eldest princess, so I drank a little more."

Lin Yan pursed his lips: "Since you know you've been drinking too much, why do you still drink more?"

Shen Shaoguang couldn't remember what he had just said to fool A Yuan, so he had to frown and make up another one, "Anyway, I'm already drunk, so it's not bad, right?" Shen Shaoguang looked at the jug in his hand, and had an idea, " It's a pity not to drink."

Lin Yan laughed at her, it turned out to be cherishing things! What an excuse.

Seeing that she still wanted to drink, Lin Yan went over to get the jug, "You can't drink any more, let the maids wait for you to wash up, get a good night's sleep, you will have a headache tomorrow."

Shen Shaoguang shook his head, patted the couch, and motioned him to sit, "You accompany me to talk."

Lin Yan sat down with her. She was wearing a half-worn burgundy mustache-style blouse, with only a ribbon tied around her bun, which was already a little loose, some hair was scattered around her temples, and her cheeks were rubbed like rouge, which was silly. Lin Yan's heart softened, "Don't drink like the eldest princess in the future. You don't drink often. It's so uncomfortable to be drunk."

Shen Shaoguang didn't answer, just looked at him with a smile, and then took his hand to play.

Shen Shaoguang compared his hand with Lin Yan's, and then crossed it, and Lin Yan also held it cooperatively, and then Shen Shaoguang looked at his fingers again to see how many "dustpans" and "fights" were on his fingers. .

"You three fights, you should do business like me and open a pawnshop." Shen Shaoguang finished the appraisal.

Lin Yan had never heard such nonsense, so he just laughed.

Shen Shaoguang put down his hand and said angrily: "Unfortunately, you are not a pawnshop."

Shen Shaoguang sat up straight, looked at Lin Yan, and said after a while, "I won't trip you up like this. If it doesn't work out, you can get a wife and have children."

Lin Yan looked at her, "What's the matter?"

"We are not a car that runs on the same road. We can go on our own, and we can all be safe. If we stick together, if we don't keep it together, we will crash. I always thought that it would be a long time to go for a while..." Shen Shaoguang sipped He pursed his lips and lowered his head, "It's my fault. It's better to stick to each other than to forget each other in the rivers and lakes."

Lin Yan lifted her face and found that she had tears streaming down her face. Originally, it was a little helpless to hear her talk about this again, but at this time, she felt very distressed. She was really a fool. Originally, she was so excited to fiddle with all kinds of food and eat and try her best to open a wine shop. She seemed so full of interest that she couldn't bear to interrupt. Besides, the two of them got along like this, although they couldn't... it was fine, Lin Yan was willing to Grind slowly. Now it seems that I really can't let her be like this. I look at Le Taotao all day long, but my heart is very depressed, otherwise I won't cry like this.

Lin Yan gently hugged her into his arms, "We have to stick to each other for the rest of our lives, aren't you always thinking about it?"

Shen Shaoguang didn't remember his misunderstanding, but he felt sad, so he started to cry, rubbing the tears and snot of Lin Yan's shirt.

Lin Yan patted her on the back lightly, and after a while, there was no sound, and she twisted her face gently, it turned out that she was asleep.

The author has something to say: that, at the request of everyone, finally embraced it.
