5 How to deal with drunkenness
"Hey, is the bride's bridesmaid Amy?" Lin Yilong heard the guests at the table talk as he passed by a table.
"Yes. The neighbor replied, "She and the bride were classmates in the same dormitory before. ”
"Is there anything else going on? It feels like the gap between the two of them is a little bit bigger now. ”
"Personal circumstances, there is no way. ”
"I mean, if Amy was principal of San Francisco or Stuttgart Ballet, it would be fine, but she's now principal of Royal Ballet, so ...... You know...... I think there must be a financier. ”
"Having a gold owner is also a personal experience, why don't you have a gold owner. ”
"That's just as well. ”
Amy's patron of the arts is not Lin Yilong herself, at least nominally, her most direct patrons are Nadia and Vera, who are also women, and the other dancers in the troupe who know about it do not think that Amy has any moral problems, but outsiders who don't know about it are crooked.
Because Samantha doesn't have any friends in the UK, Amy was temporarily caught and turned into a bridesmaid for her roommate, but it was just a fill-up scene, everything was arranged, and she didn't really need to do anything.
The wedding is based on a church wedding, but it is not a church marriage, and a clergyman officiates according to the church wedding, but after the two parties exchange rings and kiss, there is no choir blessing, but instead the best man's toast, and the guests applaud and then the dinner is served.
"You're right, the people who came to the wedding didn't wear the same clothes as we used to be. Mother Lin, who had been arguing with Lin Yilong before, admitted defeat beside Lin Yilong and said, "Otherwise, it will be difficult to really embarrass the old classmates." ”
Lin Yilong smiled and didn't continue.
"Western weddings are very simple, and after about half an hour of eating, there will be a ball, and generally speaking, after two dances, everyone can basically leave without losing their manners. Lin Yilong began to give Lin Mu the process after popularizing science, "However, after a while, Uncle Tian is estimated to have something to drink with you in London Chinatown." ”
"Your dad and I can't drink anything. There were four kinds of drinks in the ice bucket on the table, three of which were alcoholic drinks, and the remaining bottle of plum juice had been divided between Father Lin and Mother Lin - Mother Lin poured a glass of rose wine into Lin Yilong's cup, "So, you can do it for you." ”
Lin Yilong drank the rose wine with a look of embarrassment—such a little alcohol would not affect his judgment, but his face immediately turned red.
The starter is Malaysian chicken satay skewers served with a vegetable salad, followed by creamy pumpkin soup and bread. The combination is not bad, but the interval between the soup and the main dish is very long, and Lin Yilong waited nearly thirty minutes after eating his own soup and bread before waiting for the main course, herb beef fillet with potato cakes.
After serving the main dish, Lin Yilong drank another cup of dry red, and the whole thing became very ruddy, as if he had a fever.
Lin Yilong felt tired and uncomfortable, with a splitting headache and was very uncomfortable.
"I'm going to go to the toilet. Lin Yilong hurriedly stood up, but the accelerated heartbeat did not ease, and after going to the bathroom and washing his face, he felt that he could think again.
When he returned, half of what he had eaten had been removed and replaced with carrot cake and a glass of port wine.
"You're alright. Mother Lin said with concern, "The bride and groom came here to toast just now, and when you weren't there just now, I poured you another glass of wine." ”
"I can't drink anymore. Lin Yilong asked for a glass of water from the waiter, and eased up a little.
Seeing her son's painful expression, Mother Lin was very unimpressed.
Father Lin and Uncle Lin don't mention it for the time being, Mother Lin also belongs to the type that can drink. Based on Lin Mu's experience, two glasses of wine should have no effect on Lin Yilong, and even drinking some more is nothing.
Because the dance party hadn't started yet, and there was still a period of time, Lin Yilong picked up his mobile phone and sent a few work emails.
"Are you Lawyer Lin?" asked a man of the same age as Lin's mother with a Jiangnan accent.
"I am, who are you?" Lin Yilong asked.
"My surname is Zuo, and I am Mr. Wu's lover. The visitor reported his name, "I met with Lawyer Lin, your assistant Bonnie, in Pujiang before. ”
"Oh, it's Mrs. Zuo, I'm glad I will. Lin Yilong remembered who the woman in front of him was, "How is it, are you satisfied with our project?"
"That project was not bad, but I didn't come to Mr. Lin for that project. Zuo Hui said, "Lawyer Lin knows that I have a son, but he can't enter the ideal school now, I want to ask Lawyer Lin if there is any way here?"
"There is a method, it is a tricky method, 100% legal and compliant, but there is no guarantee that you will graduate. Lin Yilong said, "So, I can only talk about the rest here." ”
"That's fine. Mrs. Zuo heard this way, "But my son's grades don't seem to meet the requirements of that university." ”
"You can go ahead and contact my assistant and she will get back to you. Lin Yilong smiled politely, "I will help you and the person in charge of the educational institution I know to introduce you to each other." ”
"I kind of get it. Mrs. Zuo got a satisfactory reply from Lin Yilong, and the two of them touched the wine glass, and Lin Yilong drank the port wine in his wine glass directly in order not to brush off Mrs. Zuo's kindness.
This cup completely made Lin Yilong's alcohol affinity reach the limit, he felt that his face was very hot, and he felt that his whole head had a tendency to burst.
The first dance of the wedding belongs to the bride and groom, the second to the bride and her father and the groom and his mother, and the third waltz to which the guests join in – and then the bride and groom leave the venue to the sound of their honeymoon.
Lin Yilong endured until the end of the second song, and then went straight to the toilet, clasping his throat vigorously - after a heart-rending vomiting sound, he didn't know if he had a problem with his digestive system or nervous system, and the whole person was very uncomfortable and felt bitter at the same time, but the dizziness was much better.
Lin Yilong, who tasted the sweetness, imitated the regurgitation behavior of the ploughing cow again, and this time he felt better—but when he returned to the venue after doing this, all the guests had almost left, but Uncle Tian was still organizing the guests he invited to go to London Chinatown to have another drink.
Saying goodbye to Lin's father and mother, Lin Yilong called Amy, who was sent to the other side of Fincher Road by Samantha, and made an appointment with her to go home at Paddington Station.
