Chapter Seventy-Three: The Wine is Good and the Mood is High
Wine is a gall medicine that opens the heart, and the conversation between the two is even more interesting as they drink the strength of the wine.
"Zhao--Xiao--Eight, Xiaoba, you said that you are the eighth in the family, so how many brothers and sisters do you have in your family?"
I have known Zhao Xiaoba for so long, except for knowing that his family lives in Lin'an, which is a big outdoor with a head and a face, to be honest, Zhu Xishi is basically blank! At this time, when I thought about it, I was naturally curious with the high wine.
"On my brother's side, I'm the eighth in line, with seven older brothers above and five younger brothers below. As for the sisters and sisters, there are nine more. ”
The wine was a little high, and Zhu Xishi's mind was not very clear, so he silently counted his fingers on the side according to Zhao Xiaoba's words. Seven plus five gets twelve, plus Zhao Xiaoba is thirteen, and there are nine sisters and sisters, and they stupidly broke it down and understood a rough idea: it means that their Zhao family has 22 children.
When Zhu Xishi came up with this answer in his heart, his face suddenly flashed with astonishment, what concept are 22 children?! Immediately asked Zhao Xiaoba in surprise.
"How many wives did your father have?"
Taking a sip of wine to moisten his throat, Zhao Xiaoba also thought about this question, and the frowning brow seemed to reflect that he was embarrassed.
"I can't say the specific number, what wives, concubines, and rooms are all counted, at least twenty or thirty."
I don't know if it's because these words are too shocking, or if the night wind is too sobering, Zhu Xishi's whole body suddenly felt a burst of excitement. Uncle, twenty or thirty wives, big and small, the three palaces and six courtyards of Emperor Laozi?! This blessing is too much.
"I can't see that your father is still a very amorous person. I said, there are so many of your families, it must be lively. ”
"Humph!" Zhao Xiaoba snorted coldly, this is not something to envy, and he reluctantly replied to Zhu Xishi's words: "Lively?!" I think there are a lot of people. ”
Zhu Xishi was not a fool, and he couldn't hear the meaning of Zhao Xiaoba's words. A big family like him has a wide range of interests, so how can right and wrong? All of them have sharpened their heads and want to climb up, how many secrets are unknown to ordinary people, and whoever pulls them out can let the storyteller talk for a day.
Thinking about it again, the five hundred taels of silver that Zhao Xiaoba gave him before, he didn't even frown, it seems that this matter is more likely. You said that he Zhao Xiaoba didn't stay in Lin'an, and he had to go to a small place like Taiyuan Mansion to play, why? Zhu Xi estimated that eighty percent of him was ostracized at home, and in order to avoid right and wrong, he ran out to relax!
Suddenly, Zhu Xishi took his shoulders sympathetically and comforted him.
"There are many mundane things in the world, who told you to be in such a big family? If you look at everything and relax your mind, maybe your mood will be different. The most important thing is to be happy in life. ”
"Everyone is as optimistic as you, and the world will be peaceful a long time ago."
Although Zhu Xishi looked ordinary on the surface, after getting along with each other during this time, he felt that ordinary people like her were hundreds or thousands of times richer in their hearts than they didn't know. Isn't it often said in the world that the house of the Son of Heaven is indifferent, and the more land you have, the more you lose.
"I said Zhao Xiaoba, usually you are at home, does your father care for you?"
"My dad has been gone for more than ten years, and he can't hurt if he wants to? Why do you ask this? ”
His dad is gone? Zhu Xi's pig nose suddenly smelled, no wonder he looked depressed, now that their heads of the family have changed, do you say that he can not be a little idle.
"This master has changed, and it must be different. Feng Shui takes turns, now it is idle, maybe it will turn over in the future, don't be afraid! ”
This fat woman just drank a little wine, and began to talk nonsense, Zhao Xiaoba really couldn't see what she wanted to express, and couldn't help but raise her voice to interrupt her subjective assumptions.
"Who says I'm being idle at home? Although my family is now the second brother in charge, he and my sister-in-law have watched me grow up since childhood, and they love me very much. Please, grandma, don't just guess, isn't it interesting?! ”
"You and your second brother are born to the same mother?"
"Or else?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Xishi suddenly slapped his legs, and looked like he suddenly realized.
"Isn't this over, your brother is supporting you at home, and you are still depressed. It's just that it's dark, and someone will clean up the mess for you. ”
"Speak well, am I the one who messes around?"
Looking at Zhao Xiaoba's impatient white eyes, Zhu Xishi also smiled from ear to ear, and for a while he brought up his child's problem, he was really a sensitive little man.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about something else, okay? For example, have you ever had a good girl, or what kind of marriage is the right person to marry? ”
"Do you call this a problem, Zhu Xishi? You're just digging into your privacy! ”
It's better not to ask, but when she asks, she gets even angrier, Zhao Xiaoba hurriedly brushed away her hand on her shoulder and kept a certain distance from her.
"I'm curious, the little people haven't seen the world, so I want to hear the anecdotes of your big family. Little Eighth Master said let's talk about it, don't be so stingy and hide it in your heart, while everyone is happy to share and share. ”
"Share it, you can share it at will! You should be a brother and sister with delicious chicken, your left leg, my right leg. ”
But when Zhu Xi, who was strong in wine, didn't care if others were happy or not, he clinged to Zhao Xiaoba like a sticky rake.
"Let's just talk about it, look at your shyness, there must be a girl you like, right?"
"Are you annoyed? How can you be so torsional. ”
kept pushing aside Zhu Xi, who was like an octopus, but she looked more and more frustrated, and she was grinding softly beside Zhao Xiaoba.
The helpless Zhao Xiaoba is also the first two big, and finally saw the power of this fat woman's drunken madness, and finally couldn't help but consume, and finally softened in front of her.
"Okay, okay, I said it's all right!! Stay away from me, don't keep pestering me like a kraft candy. ”
Zhu Xishi, who was flushed in the cold wind, immediately moved a little distance to the side in amusement, but the smile on his face was brighter than the hibiscus flower, clapping his hands and urging in his mouth.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome"
What is a complete defeat, just look at Zhao Xiaoba's embarrassed appearance now.
looked up at the bright moon that was still perfect in the sky, but at this time, when I went to look through those old things, it became Zhao Xiaoba's only memory, and this beautiful scenery suddenly became so unpleasant.
Perhaps, the past, as it is now, has just become a story, and it has no power to change.
