Volume 1 Chapter 18 Heroes of Wine and Meat

Zhao Mingding put the green jade brick back into the Qiankun bag, and as soon as his mind moved, the Qiankun bag disappeared again, so he concentrated his energy and communicated with the red dragon dormant in his dantian, but there was no effect for a long time, so he gave up, turned around and fell asleep.

The next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and under the leadership of the Flying King, the eighteen Arhats came to Zhao Mingding's house early to pay New Year's greetings, and went back after drinking New Year's wine.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, to Zhao Mingding's surprise, Wei Jiumei came to pay New Year's greetings early in the morning, and Zhao Mingding's grandmother specially cooked a bowl of rice wine poached eggs for Wei Jiumei to eat, which made Wei Jiumei's face flushed with shame, but she was full of joy. In the countryside, if the man comes to the woman's house for a blind date, and the woman's family cooks rice wine and poached eggs for the blind date man to eat, it means that the woman agrees with the man.

"Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and you should also go to the ninth sister's house to pay a New Year's greeting. Grandma said to Zhao Mingding, "If you have nothing to do, it doesn't matter if you play at Jiumei's house for a few days." Before the words fell, I heard a soft call from outside the courtyard: "Brother Jiuding!"

When Zhao Mingding heard this, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, and looked back, who was Zeng Xiaorou?

"Little ...... Xiao Rou ...... You...... Why are you here?" Zhao Mingding stammered.

"Happy New Year to grandparents! Xiaorou wishes grandparents a long life and a hundred years old!" Zeng Xiaorou did not answer Zhao Mingding, but first gave Zhao Mingding's grandparents New Year's greetings, and solemnly knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.

"Oh, this girl, the courtesy is heavy, get up quickly!" Grandma Zhao Mingding saw Zeng Xiaorou kneeling on the ground, hurriedly helped her up, looked at it for a moment, and praised, "What a handsome girl!" said in his mouth, took off the other silver bracelet he was wearing on his right hand and put it on Zeng Xiaorou's right wrist, "It's not a valuable thing, this silver bracelet can be regarded as a gift for you." Zeng Xiaorou glanced at Zhao Mingding quickly, smiled so much that her mouth couldn't close, she bowed and said, "Thank you, grandma", and said "Happy New Year!" to Wei Jiumei, turned to Zhao Mingding and asked with a smile, "...... this girl?"

Zhao Mingding saw that his grandmother gave Zeng Xiaorou the silver bracelet on his right wrist, and his heart jumped, and his left eyelid twitched for no reason. The silver bracelet worn on the grandmother's right wrist is an ancestral thing, and there are four seals engraved on the inside of the circle: both longevity and Yongchang. Although grandma has always been generous to people, when she first met Wei Jiumei, she also gave a silver bracelet, but it was an ordinary silver bracelet, and its value and significance were far less than the ancestral bracelet with engraved words that she gave to Zeng Xiaorou now.

The first half of the sentence of Jishou Yongchang is: Ordered by heaven. Together, it is: ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity. These eight characters were originally carved on the jade seal of Qin Shi Huang, and Zhao Mingding has never understood why his ancestral silver bracelet is engraved with these four characters. And, only during the New Year's holidays, grandma will wear this bracelet, and today is such a coincidence, so that Zeng Xiaorou met and got it.

"I am an alumnus of Jiudingge. Wei Jiumei didn't wait for Zhao Mingding's answer, and said busily, "I'...... I have something to do, I have to go back. Have free time...... Please come to my house to play when you have time. With that, she smiled, said hello to everyone, and walked out of the yard with a little loss.

"Ninth sister, I'll send you. Zhao Mingding saw that Wei Jiumei walked out of the courtyard gate with a little silence, and he was a little reluctant to go, and wanted to send her, but was stopped by her: "Brother Jiuding, you accompany Miss Xiaorou well, I will go home by myself, I don't need you to send it." With that, he hurried away.

Zhao Mingding invited Zeng Xiaorou into the living room, poured a glass of boiling water, and said with a smile: "What kind of wind blew you here today?"

"Disturbed your good deeds, don't you welcome me?" Zeng Xiaorou said with a smile, "How did I talk to you in Taihe that day?"

"My mobile phone was dropped, and I didn't have the money to buy a mobile phone for a while, and even if I bought a mobile phone, this mobile phone card would have to go back to Zhongshan to replace it, so I don't remember your mobile phone number and the address you left. Zhao Mingding said with a smile.

"Thankfully, I remember your mobile phone number and address. Zeng Xiaorou waved her head and said, "Let's go!"

"Where?"

"Of course it's to my house! Say something good, otherwise I'll lose face. ”

Zhao Mingding saw that he couldn't shirk it, so he had to smile and say, "Okay, let's go." ”

"You'll be at my house, you have to be careful. Zeng Xiaorou said with a smile, "Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and many people will come to my house to pay New Year's greetings, all of them are people who like to dance and play sticks, and it is inevitable to have a try." If you come to the door for the first time today, you don't know them well, so you will inevitably be teased by them, so you will have to deal with them well. ”

"The soldiers are coming, and the water is coming to cover the earth!" Zhao Mingding said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't let you lose face!"

As Zhao Mingding expected, Uncle Qing and the land cruiser stopped at the entrance of the village, after getting into the car, Uncle Qing drove all the way to the car, and finally turned into the deep mountains, the twists and turns of the asphalt road are lined with lush trees, in addition to the roar of the car motor, is the whistling sound of the cold wind sweeping through the trees, the air is so fresh that people are intoxicated.

Walked about more than ten kilometers in the deep mountains, came to a valley, the entrance is very narrow, a small gatehouse is built with rocks, a piece of black marble is embedded in the middle of the gatehouse, and three big green characters are engraved on it. On the black marble embedded on both sides, there is a couplet, which is also in green, the upper couplet is: a night of incense, and the lower couplet is: three more wine sober stay guests. The engraved font is regular script, the strokes are strong, and it seems to be from the hand of a contemporary calligrapher.

Next to the small gatehouse there was a small two-story building, also made of rock, in which lived guards, and when they saw the car coming, they lifted the barrage from a distance. When passing through the small gatehouse, Uncle Qing honked the horn in response to the salute of the guards, and did not slow down, still rushing by, driving along the zigzag asphalt road for about ten minutes, before stopping the car in a parking lot full of luxury cars paved with hollow cement floor tiles on the mountainside. On the opposite side of the parking lot, there are seven or eight small villas of different heights surrounded by green shrubs of half a person's height, with blue bricks and red tiles, exquisite and abnormal, the surrounding trees are verdant, the valley bottom stream is murmuring, the distant mountains are surrounded by clouds and mist, the scenery is beautiful, it really makes people think that they have arrived in a paradise.

"What are you doing in the resort?" Zhao Mingding couldn't help but ask after getting out of the car and looking around at the surrounding scenery.

"You stupid, this is my uncle's house!" Zeng Xiaorou replied.

Zeng Xiaorou took Zhao Mingding to the largest small western-style building, pushed the door in, and saw that the lights in the house were like daylight, full of songs and laughter, and it was overcrowded.

Seeing someone push the door in, someone exclaimed "Xiaorou", causing everyone to stop talking, and all eyes fell on Zhao Mingding and Zeng Xiaorou, Zeng Xiaorou's female friends even "whew" all around, holding her hand and "chattering" non-stop, and sometimes turned their heads to look at Zhao Mingding.

At this time, Zeng Xiaorou's uncle and aunt probably heard the news that Ruyu was coming home, and hurriedly walked downstairs, only to hear Zeng Xiaorou's aunt shouting as she walked: "Xiaorou, you are back!"

Zeng Xiaorou's uncle is an old man about sixty years old with a flat head and full of energy, while his aunt is much younger, seems to be only about thirty years old, looks similar to Zeng Xiaorou, and Zeng Xiaorou stands together like sisters.

When Zeng Xiaorou's uncle and aunt approached, Zhao Mingding respectfully greeted them and greeted them for the New Year.

Zeng Xiaorou's uncle was very kind, and patted Zhao Mingding's shoulder with a smile and said, "I'll have a few more drinks!"

Zeng Xiaorou's aunt looked Zhao Mingding up and down, but did not speak, just nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's go upstairs to eat!" Zeng Xiaorou's aunt greeted everyone and walked upstairs surrounded by everyone.

When I went upstairs, I saw that the windows were bright and clean, and there were eight tables and chairs placed in turn from the staircase, but there was a big stage in the middle, covered with a thick red carpet.

As soon as Zhao Mingding and Zeng Xiaorou sat down, someone came over with a wine glass to toast Zhao Mingding, and it was a wheel warfare method, the front cup was drunk, and the back cup arrived.

"Xiao Rou, when did you find a little white face?" Zhao Mingding had just finished drinking a glass of wine when he heard someone shouting, his voice was rough and extremely harsh.

The person who spoke was about twenty-four or five years old, with a shaved head, and walked towards Zhao Mingding with a wine glass as he spoke, staggering and already drunk.

Seeing that someone was challenging Zhao Mingding, three young people who were about the same age as bald heads stood up one after another, and they all raised their wine glasses and surrounded Zhao Mingding.

Zhao Mingding had already drunk a round, almost seventy or eighty cups, and Zeng Xiaorou hurriedly poured him a cup of hot tea, afraid that he would get drunk.

The bald head approached Zhao Mingding with a wine glass, a pair of bloodshot eyes slanted, and asked, "How can you dare to marry Xiaorou?"

Zhao Mingding smiled slightly and did not answer.

"Are you powerful, or rich, talented, or good-looking?"

"Brother, you're drunk!" Zhao Mingding said with a smile, "Wake up with a cup of hot tea!"

"Nonsense, I'm not drunk!" said the bald head, raising his voice impatiently, "You haven't answered my question yet." How can you dare to marry Ruyu?"

Zhao Mingding glanced around and saw that everyone had stopped eating, drinking and talking, including Zeng Xiaorou's uncle and aunt, who were all quietly looking at Zhao Mingding and the bald head.

"It seems that this bald head is not an ordinary person, otherwise he would not dare to be so presumptuous. Zhao Mingding thought to himself, "If I don't subdue him today, I will never be able to raise my head in this circle in the future." ”

"If you want me to answer your question, you have to answer my question first," Zhao Mingding smiled, "How can you dare to ask me this question?"

"Interesting!" said the bald head laughed, "Do you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are!" Zhao Mingding patted him on the shoulder, "Even the Heavenly King Laozi, you have to be reasonable, don't you?"

"I'm the king of heaven, I'm unreasonable, what can you do to me?" said the bald head with squinted eyes.

"With the way of others, but also the body of others, have you heard this sentence?" Zhao Mingding also narrowed his eyes.

"So, if I hit you, you dare to hit me?" the bald head didn't seem to believe his ears.

"If you don't believe it, just give it a try. Zhao Mingding was still smiling.

"You have a kind!" The bald head circled around Zhao Mingding three times, and finally didn't dare to make a move, "I'll drink with you!"

"If you want to drink, change to a big bowl, a big bowl and a big bowl to dry, don't drink a small cup and a small cup of mother-in-law!" Zhao Mingding said.

"A big bowl is a big bowl, who is afraid of whom?" said the bald head, "Whoever falls first is the turtle king bastard!"

"Change the big bowl and bring the wine!" Zhao Mingding shouted, "Whoever is a hero, who is a hero, try it on the wine table." ”
