(104), a big drunk
Looking at the students sitting around the pot, the students of the academy were full of joy and used chopsticks to hold the fish and meat they had selected, put it into the boiling cauldron soup base and cook it thoroughly, and then put it back into the small urn pot in front of them that was boiling the condiments, change the chopsticks and dip the sauce and put it in their mouths. As they chewed slowly, most of the students' faces showed a look of enjoyment, and Ma An was impressed in his heart.
At the same time, he felt a little proud and proud in his heart - he could make the hot pot so atmospheric; Being able to create such a hot pot that can serve dozens of people at the same time, and the supporting utensils and services are delicate and mature in the rough, this wisdom and innovation obviously has the credit of his wife!
Although Lin Shan often took Ma An's carriage to the county seat, he always got off the car and walked to the academy when he first entered the county seat, so the students of the academy were not very familiar with Ma An, which is why Ma An went to the toilet, but no one paid attention to him.
Now he finally came to the 'Five Grain Hall' alone, and a few people in the hall looked at him sideways, but they didn't say hello because they didn't know each other. After some self-absorption, Ma An stood at the door, and after looking at everyone in the lobby, he found that Lin Shan and Mo Ye's figures didn't seem to be inside, and he couldn't help but wonder a little and feel a little embarrassed.
At this time, he saw Xing Feng suddenly leave his seat and walked towards him, and said at the same time: "Uncle Ma, why did you come?" ”
Ma An met Xingfeng a few times, and then was pulled into the table by Xingfeng.
The place where Xingfeng sat was close to the two bottles on the inside was much smaller than the cauldron, but it was still much larger than the household pot, and the people sitting around the two bottles of hot pot were all taught by the master. After Ma An took his seat, he glanced over there twice, and asked Xing Feng in a low voice, "Where did Mo Ye and the others go?" ”
"Some small things happened just now, and Mr.'s physical discomfort suddenly became serious, and he was accompanied by Senior Brother Mo to return first." Xing Feng explained in a low voice, he glanced at the cauldron a few times, and then said in a low voice: "If it weren't for Chai Fuzi to lure Mr. into a drunken addiction, it wouldn't be like this." ”
Ma An frowned slightly when he heard this. It's not that he is really angry with Chai Yan because of this matter, but he just wonders why Lin Shan is in such a hurry this time. But he quickly thought that he was meeting with his wife just now, and even if Lin Shan had the ability to find him, it should be really inconvenient to find him. I don't know if Mo Ye's girl is open-mouthed in front of him, and when she thinks of the end, Ma An's face is embarrassed again.
Angry and not as if he was angry, he was anxious that he showed more of an unnatural look, and Ma An's repeated changes in the expression on his face made the torture wind sitting next to him feel strange.
"Mr. left a message just now, let Uncle Ma stay, it's if Master Chai is drunk, please give him a ride." After Xingfeng passed on the words that Lin Shan left for Ma An through his mouth when he left, he pondered it for a while before he said again: "But if Uncle Ma is not at ease and wants to rush back, Xingfeng is willing to take care of Chai Fuzi today Because of this matter, everyone is staring at Chai Fuzi, he shouldn't drink again, right?" Uncle Ma can rest assured. ”
The meaning of Xingfeng's words was already very simple, and Ma An could even read some of Xingfeng's blame for Chai Yan from it. But he just smiled at this, did not refuse the kindness of Xing Feng, nor did he accept it, and after a deep sigh, he said slowly: "It seems that Chai Fuzi brought a bottle of Western spirits today?" ”
When Chai Yan invited Lin Shan to drink, Ma An was not by Lin Shan's side because of some other things, otherwise he would not have gone wrong. After that, he spent a long time going to the latrine, and he was of course curious about what kind of wine Chai Yan was carrying. There were many students present, and he had heard about it, but it was not detailed.
Ma An and Lin Shan are actually a pair of alcoholic brothers, and they once partnered to fight Chai Yan in the tavern for a night. Knowing that his wife accounted for two pounds in the behind-the-scenes boss team of Zephyr Manor, Ma An could certainly rest assured that the villa would arrange a carriage to send Lin Shan Moye back, so now there was only that simple and exciting question in front of him.
Xing Feng first nodded "um" to Ma An's question, and then a puzzled look appeared on his face. Xing Feng didn't know that Ma An's alcohol addiction was second only to Lin Shan, so he wouldn't have thought of what Ma An was doing at this time.
But Ma An didn't leave him time to speak after the punishment was confirmed, so he said: "Let him lose in the things he likes and is proud of, it should be something that will be frustrating but not really unhappy!" ”
Ma An had already gotten up and left the table. The puzzled look in Xing Feng's eyes was even heavier, but he could only watch Ma An walk towards Chai Yan, who was sitting next to the small pot on the left hand side of the back.
The same hobby can make two people quickly find a common topic to become familiar, and one of the best ways for two people to melt and improve this familiar relationship as quickly as possible is to go crazy about what they like together.
After the all-night drinking incident a few years ago, the friendship between Chai Yan and Ma An became deeper in the run-in of pushing glasses and changing lamps in the next few years. Although this seems to be just a friendship between drinking friends, the two are not cunning people, and the wine is used as a guide, and the two gradually exchange wine glasses for a seemingly thin transparent, but in fact very precious pure friendship.
So Xing Feng saw that after Ma An approached Chai Yan, he only had a word or two between them, and they were already sitting together. Then soon, Chai Yan took out the somewhat weird-looking clay bottle from the cloth bag in his hand with great pity, and did not pay attention to the image that he should hold as a master, and held the iron ring at the end of the same strange wooden cork at the mouth of the pottery vase, and pulled the wooden cork off with one bite and one pull.
While doing this, Chai Yan's hand kept on Ma An's shoulder, as if he was afraid that he would run away halfway.
Next to this medium pot also sat the respective deans of Lizheng Academy and Shanshui Academy. The two deans had a very personal relationship, and in the Zephyr Manor garden activity, which had been said in advance to be a relaxing trip, the two of them of course put aside the dean's reserve and sat together as friends.
The two deans looked at Chai Yan's appearance, and the dean of Shanshui said jokingly first: "Chai Fuzi, you are a little unfair, just now when you drank with Mu Fuzi, you have to make it clear that you gamble on fish first, but now you don't want anything?" ”
Then, Dean Lizheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and said solemnly: "Le Xing, you have to stop in moderation!" Don't you worry about Mu Fuzi's affairs at all? ”
When Chai Yan heard this, his eyes were a little innocent and said, "Dean, don't stop blaming me for this." Just now I saw that he looked very good, so I neglected him and invited him to have a drink, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. ”
At this point, he suddenly stood up from his seat, swept his eyes at the students sitting around the cauldron, and then said with some annoyance: "You children have no reason to blame me!" I have set the threshold just now, I have to catch a fish, and I can drink more alcohol, is it not because I know in my heart that I don't forget to scoop and pinch the proportion when the alcohol addiction is urgent? I didn't expect you to "release the water" in your own nest, do you think I didn't see that the fishing team on my side was deliberately slacking off? If it weren't for this, Mu Fuzi wouldn't have won many games and drank a few more glasses of wine. ”
The students who were eating and drinking in the lobby were quiet for a while, but this little quiet came suddenly, which seemed a little abrupt.
A moment later, in this quiet atmosphere, a student suddenly stood up and bowed to Chai Yan, and then said in a vigorous voice: "Chai Fuzi, those of us who are students also know that Mu Fuzi likes to drink, but seeing that you are reluctant to put things in the bottle, we deliberately slack off in the competition, so that Mr. Mu's team can win and get wine." But if we had known from the beginning that Mr. Mu had not healed from the cold, we would not have done so. ”
The implication of this student's words is actually that the person who is guilty of the first crime is still Chai Yan, who knew that the gentleman was unwell today from the beginning, and invited him to drink.
The student who stood up first had just finished his sentence when another tall and thin young student stood up. He also bowed to Chai Yan first, and then said slowly: "We have good intentions but indirectly hurt Mr. Mu's health, even if we have grievances in our hearts, we will apologize to Mr. Mu when we see him tomorrow." Today, as students, we hurt others with some kindness, and it can be regarded as a lesson for us! In this way, all the brothers and respected masters present here today should no longer dwell on who to blame, and avoid such a clumsy and evil incident because they do not understand the truth in the future. ”
The brave admonitions of the two young students in succession have the tendency to argue on the surface, but the inside of the words is the justification of the reason, which is more like the words of persuasion.
But when Chai Yan heard this, it was probably because of the strong wine, and a small pimple appeared in his heart.
Although the students were all persuaded to make peace, the burden was still thrown out, and it was smashed on him, but he couldn't argue about anything anymore.
Glancing at the two deans opposite, Chai Yan could only sit back in his chair in the end, and strangely talked to Ma An, an idler whose identity was outside the academy, but he just repeated two words mechanically: "Drink"
Another big drunkenness.
When Chai Yan and Ma An, who were walking crookedly, were helped into the carriage by Zhuang Ding of Westwind Manor, the expressions on their faces were still expressing how unhappy they were, and their mouths were shouting from time to time to continue drinking. Just waited for the carriage to get in, but the two of them quieted down at the same time, just because of the word 'drunk', they all fell asleep.
Xing Feng sat in the carriage that Ma An drove when he came, and temporarily served as a coachman.
It's just that the way he, the coachman, was a little strange, and he saw that he was holding the reins of the old horse with the wheels in one hand, and the reins of his own wild horse with the other, so that the two horses were running side by side, not because they were pulling the same cart.
However, because of this experience of driving the car, Xing Feng vaguely felt that when his violent horse met the old horse of the Mo Ye family, he didn't know how to be more obedient. All the way to be so twisted to hold the reins slowly, it has always been very well-behaved, although the punishment wind is a little unclear, but finally put down the worries in his heart
