Chapter Forty-Nine: Returning the Favor

In Sweetwater Alley, Lin Xiao applauded the singing singer, and looked around, but found that the table of Zhong Lixiong and Shimafu Yoshihide was gone.

In a bedroom in the flower building in the alley, a maidservant with a wooden sign No. 13 is painting the same face as herself for Shimafu Yoshihide.

After sketching the last eyebrow, the thirteenth maid said respectfully, "My lord, the painting is done." ”

"Hmm. Shimafu Yoshihide replied, changed into a maidservant costume from Sweetwater Lane, took the No. 13 wooden plaque from her, and carefully went out the door, and came to the back kitchen area in the alley.

In the back kitchen area, the four palace eunuchs have opened the sweet wine vat, and more than 20 maidservants with wooden numbers are waiting in line, waiting for the eunuchs to fill the wine jugs one by one, and then bring them to the tables on the nearby viewing platform.

A pot full of sweet wine, and a group of maidservants were already serving the jugs on wooden plates and about to be sent to the tables.

"Wait. ”

Lang Dog, one of the eight great god hunts, had already walked in, and after shouting, everyone in the back kitchen had stopped, and when they turned around and saw that it was the uniform of the god hunting camp, they stood honestly in place.

Lang Dog didn't say much, from back to front, each maid sniffed, opened the jug and smelled it, and checked it in turn, and it was about to be Shimafu Yoshihide's turn At this time, Shimafu Yoshihide's heart was about to jump to his throat.

At this moment, a shrill voice was heard shouting:

"Li Shishi is going to appear, what are you doing here one by one, sweeping away the Queen Mother's prosperity, which of you can afford it?!"

When Lang Dog heard this, he turned around and looked, it turned out to be the chief manager Zhou Baokang, and the two looked at each other and smiled and saluted.

"It turned out to be Lord Lang Dog. Zhou Baokang smirked as if it were true.

"Lord Zhou. Lang Dog replied.

"What, it's done?"

"Well......" Lang Dog's expression hesitated, and Zhou Baokang said again: "The Queen Mother can't wait for the sweet wine in our sweet water lane, and she is asking me to urge, it's okay, you should check it, it's okay to wait, the Queen Mother is really to blame, just let these little eunuchs bear it." ”

As soon as he said this, the four drinking eunuchs immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy, crying and shouting to their mothers: "Godfather, godfather, godfather! Godfather, godfather!"

Looking at this posture, Lang Dog hesitated for a long time, only to hear the four of them shouting louder and louder, and he didn't want to kill innocent people because of himself: "It's all checked, let's go out quickly." At the sound of the order, all the maids in Sweet Water Lane had already answered in unison, turned around, and walked out in line.

Looking at the four drinking eunuchs on the ground with disgust, Zhou Baokang said gloomily: "Why are you still kneeling?"

The four eunuchs shouted in unison, "Thank you, godfather." Immediately he got up from the ground honestly.

"Thank me?" Zhou Baokang asked again, and the four eunuchs hurriedly turned around and bowed to Lang Dog Qi: "Lord Xie Lang." ”

"Then why are you still stunned?" Zhou Baokang asked, "Why don't you make a pot of sweet wine quickly, I want to drink it with Lord Lang." ”

"Huh?" Lang Dog was shocked and looked at Zhou Baokang in embarrassment, "This wine is for us to drink, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right?"

"Alas~" Zhou Baokang smiled and waved his hand, pointing to the wine tank, "There is a big vat here, enough for these princes and ministers to drink, we have worked hard for a year, it's okay to drink some." ”

Saying this, Zhou Baokang took a full wine jug, hugged the dog, and walked out of the back kitchen towards the observation deck.

Since the island of Yoshihide had just come out of the back kitchen, when he walked towards the viewing platform with all the maidservants, he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him around the small road, holding a wooden plate in his left hand, and the index finger of his right hand was stuffed into his teeth and biting, biting his fingers until blood gushed out, and immediately quietly dripped three drops into the wine jug.

As soon as Shimafu Jixiu brought it to Yelujin's side, he and Gu Fulian secretly looked at each other, and Gu Fulian smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Lord, the sweet wine is here." ”

Yelujin laughed loudly: "Serve the wine, Brother Xiao and I want to have a good drink." ”

Shimafu Jixiu stood respectfully behind, and when he heard Yelujin's words, his heart was already tight, thinking of the bottle of Fuyan Pill, and he was worried about Lin Xiao.

In response, Gu Fulian put the wine jug in front of Yelujin, took out a silver needle from the cuff of his left hand, put it into the full jug and collected it again, and then displayed the clean silver needle in front of Yelujin.

"Good, good. Yelujin laughed loudly, listened to the song and danced all night, and now he was so excited that he was flying, "Brother Xiao, let's have a drink." As he spoke, Yelujin poured two glasses with the wine jug and handed Lin Xiao a glass.

Yoshihide Shimafu (!!)

But I saw Lin Xiao's face embarrassed: "Brother Yelu, I can't hide it, junior brother, I can't drink alcohol, and I don't drink a drop of wine." ”

Yoshihide Shimafu (~~~~~~)

Yelujin persuaded again: "This is the famous sweet wine in your southern sweetwater lane, drink it once a year, how can you miss it." ”

Yoshihide Shimafu (!!)

Lin Xiao refused tactfully: "My little brother hasn't drunk since he was a child, otherwise, I'll replace wine with tea." ”

Yoshihide Shimafu (~~~~~~)

"This dessert wine has a low alcohol content, so it doesn't hurt to have a glass or two. ”

(!!!)

"But I really don't like to drink, Brother Yelu, you can enjoy this wine for me. ”

(~~~~~~)

"It's better to be alone than to be happy. ”

(!!!)

"Drinking alcohol can hurt you. ”

(~~~~~~)

......

Lin Xiao and Yelujin persuaded the wine several times to attack and defend, but in the end they couldn't resist the persuasion, "Okay, then I'll drink this wine, but Brother Yelu, let's say okay, I'll have a drink." ”

"That is, it is difficult to chase a horse in a word. ”

In response, Lin Xiao and Yelujin clinked glasses, and the wine glass was just put to their lips and was about to raise their heads to drink, but suddenly they slammed into their backs, and the whole glass of wine spilled on their clothes.

I saw Lin Xiao, Yelujin, and Gu Fulian turn around and look, and a servant girl knelt on the ground and kowtowed, her voice sharp: "The slave slipped, the slave should die, the slave should die." ”

"You don't walk long!" scolded.

The maid kowtowed again and begged for mercy: "The slave and the maid should die, the slave and the maid should die." ”

Lin Xiao has never been a person with a small belly, and he didn't want to drink this glass of wine in the first place, so he was relieved at the moment: "It's okay, you can step down." ”

"Son Schelling. As soon as she had finished speaking, the maid stood up and turned around, and walked away with her back bent.

But just turning around, Lin Xiao felt that the maid's facial features were a little familiar, and what was even more puzzling was how did the maid know her surname?

Lin Xiao pondered in her heart, and was thinking about it, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Yelujin had poured a second glass of wine for herself, and seeing that something was wrong, she hurriedly stood up: "Brother Yelu, I'll go and wipe the wine stains on my body first." ”

"Then you can come back quickly. So saying, Jelujin took a glass of sweet wine and poured it into his mouth, and drank it all.

"Okay. ”

In response, Lin Xiao immediately turned around and walked with the familiar maid, passed through the viewing platform, and passed through layers of crowds, but found that the maid was walking faster and faster. When I thought about it, I felt that something was wrong, and I also quickened my pace, seeing that the distance between the two was getting closer and closer, only three or four meters away.

Lin Xiao just followed into a corner of a sweet water alley where there were no people, but a ball of white powder was sprinkled in front of him, choking and dizzy, Lin Xiao protected his face in danger, his body retreated, and when he dispersed the white mist, the maid was gone.
