Drunk House

  Chapter 48 to pick up

  Su Rong smiled and glanced at Zhou Gu, thinking that Zhou Gu can use her himself, but others can't use her. Is this a good sign? She turned away to wash her hands.

   After Ning Chi finished writing the letter, he also sealed it with wax, and handed it to Zhou Gu together with his jade pendant.

   Zhou Gu called a person and told him, "Send it back to Beijing in secret and hand it over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

  This person should be, retreated.

  Ziye came back from buying wine at this time, and bought eleven jars of wine for a thousand taels of silver.

  Zhou Gu saw it and asked, "Isn't it a hundred taels and an altar?"

  Zi Ye scratched his head, "Smilingly, the shopkeeper asked me if I was the one sent by Mr. Zhou to buy wine. I said yes, and the shopkeeper said that since I belonged to Mr. Zhou, she would give away a jug for Miss Su Qi's sake."

   "Oh?" Zhou Gu looked at Su Rong, "Why are you so proud?"

  Su Rong thought to herself that she would lose face as a person herself, so she would not tell the truth, but said: "I have some friendship with Lan Niang."

   "It can be seen that you often find her to sell alcohol." Zhou Gu commented.

  Su Rong rubbed his nose, "That's right!"

  She doesn't pay for alcohol.

  Zhou Gu wondered, "How does she know that you are mine?"

  "I asked her, did Miss Su Qi buy wine here yesterday?"

   Zhou Gu was speechless, "You might as well write a sign and hang it on your face."

  He turned his head to ask Su Rong, and said curiously: "If you write the words "I am Miss Su Qi's fiancé" on your face, will the whole Jiangning County buy it from you?"

  Su Rongxiao, "I don't know, how about you try?"

   Zhou Gu thought that Su Rong even knew all the fishermen on the fishing boats, the shopkeepers who sold wine, and maybe even more people. After all, she also said that she had been hanging out outside the house for a long time.

   "Leave us five altars, no, six altars, and you can take the rest!" Zhou Gu waved his hand.

  Midnight should be, put the six altars of wine on the table, and carry the rest down, except for the guards of Duke Huguo's mansion and the guards brought by Ning Chi, a group of people packed the lobby downstairs.

  The boy brought the food to Zhou Gu's room. Zhou Gu opened the wine jar, poured wine from a bowl, and touched Ning Chi's wine bowl, "You go back to Nanping and wait for the news. His Royal Highness should send someone to Nanping to see you after receiving the letter."

  Ning Chi nodded, "Okay, then I'll wait for the person sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

   The two drank it all in one gulp, very happy.

   Seeing that they were drinking happily, Su Rong picked up the bowl and drank it clean.

  Zhou Gu was not surprised, he just glanced at Su Rong and didn't speak. Ning Chi was shocked, looked at Su Rong, "Miss Su Qi has a good drinker?"

  Su Rong put down the empty bowl, "Well, it's okay!"

  Ning Chi admired, "It's rare to see a woman drink so much like a man."

  "When I was young, I dared to try anything. Lan Niang learned to make wine, and she was the shopkeeper who greeted customers with a smile. She nestled in the wine shop and brewed wine. I was very bored and had nothing to do, so I squatted in the wine shop with her. This drunken flower drink was made by her. , and it worked out.”

  Ning Chi was shocked, "Is it okay?" He smiled, "Miss Seven is really special, she is different from all the women I have ever seen."

   "Are you saying that I am too casual and have no rules?" Su Rong poured herself another drink, "Don't be so tactful. You just talk and don't worry about me."

  Ning Chi shook his head, "Most women in the world are reserved and restrained. Except for a few Jianghu daughters, most of them can't let go because of boudoir etiquette. Miss Seven's temper is very rare."

  Just as Su Rong was about to say something, Zhou Gu glared at Ning Chi, "Oh, you are enough, she doesn't need you to look special."

  Ning Chi laughed, and quickly apologized, "Sorry, brother Zhou, I talked too much, Haihan." He picked up the wine bowl, "I'll punish myself with a bowl."

  Zhou Gu nodded, and knocked Su Rong on the head casually, "You are a weak little girl, don't be so bold and frightening, do you hear me? Don't imitate us, just take a sip."

  Su Rong tilted his head and smiled, "Okay."

  After listening to Zhou Gu's words, she held the wine bowl, took a sip, and stopped talking.

   Zhou Gu and Ning Chi chatted while drinking. Su Rong listened to them coming and going, and thought of her fiancé, although she was young, she had a lot of mind and stomach. She was born in the Duke Huguo's mansion, and she studied with the East Palace for several years. What she learned was orthodox. He had something to say, and he had a chest. Ning Chi was older than him, but he led him away faintly.

   And Ning Chi, who was talking with Zhou Gu, was even more surprised. Many people mentioned the young master of the Huguo Gongfu, and they would remember his violent feat when he was in the study room, but no one said what he had learned in the East Palace for several years. Now he also realizes it. Is it possible to see the tip of the iceberg of His Highness the Crown Prince just by contacting Zhou Gu?

  Eastern Palace Chujun is well-known in the world for his demeanor, and I am afraid that his reputation is indeed well-deserved. His Majesty felt that the Crown Prince had become a threat to him, and from this point of view, it was probably true.

  After drinking for three rounds, it was getting late, Zhou Gu was still sober, Ning Chi was weaker, faintly drunk.

  Ning Chi is a very restrained person, he shook his head at Zhou Gu, "Brother Zhou, I can't drink any more, I should lose my composure if I drink any more."

  Zhou Gu nodded, "Then you don't have to drink."

  He turned to Su Rong, "You drank a jar of wine, and you are not half drunk. The rest of the jar, we will divide?"

  Su Rong just wanted to say yes, when he heard a series of footsteps coming from outside, and then Ziye opened the door and came in, "Master, Mr. Su is here, and he said to pick you up and Miss Su Qi."

  Zhou Gu was startled.

  Su Rong withdrew his hand to pour wine from the wine jar, turned his head and asked, "My elder brother is here? Where is he?"

   "Wait at the door."

  Su Rong scratched his head and said to Zhou Gu: "It seems that no one needs to drink this wine. My elder brother must think that I live in an inn outside like you, which is against the rules. Seeing that I didn't return home, he came to arrest me."

  She stood up, "Let's go back home? Anyway, I don't have to hide from Jiang Sheng anymore, it's comfortable to go back home."

   Zhou Gu nodded, although he was reluctant to move, but Su Xing came to pick him up in person at night. He had to give face, so he stood up and patted Ning Chi on the shoulder, "Brother Ning, we are going back to the city. You have to leave tomorrow, so I won't see you off."

   "Brother Zhou, you are too polite, there is no need to send it away." Ning Chi smiled and said, "I heard that Jiangning and Suxing are the best in the south of the Yangtze River. The words are written, the pen is written, and the ink is turned into gold. It is predicted that there will be a talent. Brother Zhou and Miss Seven, please, I will go out with you to meet."

  Su Rong thought that this is not an exaggeration. Once she was short of money for a few years, she would go to her elder brother's study to steal a poem manuscript and sell it, and she would have money. After he found out, she didn't dare.

   See you tomorrow~
