Bairun Building, the largest private room on the third floor 'Ronggui Pavilion'.

This pavilion is gorgeously decorated, elegantly arranged, Danqing painting, exquisite utensils, whether it is the pear blossom wood of the table and chairs, or the carving of the window lattice, it is very stylish, from the window to the outward, the field of vision is broad, the bustling market, the water wave of the lying bridge, take in the panoramic view.

This private room is rarely open to the public, and only those who are not rich or noble in Runzhou can book this private room.

Su Chen, Bai Susu, Peng Jingqing, and Ling'er who was called, the four of them gathered around a table.

The table is full of more than a dozen kinds of dishes, such as crispy fish bones, crab sheng, steamed shrimp, golden chicken, fish bream, stewed venison, etc., which are very rich, full of color, flavor, and flavor.

Many of them are the signature dishes of Bairunlou, and Su Chen feasted on them and felt that they were also good.

Perhaps because of the scarcity of things, Peng Jingqing and Bai Susu have eaten here many times, and they are accustomed to it, but they like the unique home-cooked taste of Su Zhai.

"Delicious food, and winning silver again, you can't celebrate without wine!" Peng Jingqing asked Xiaotong to bring a jar of high-quality liquor 'Manna White', although it is not as high as the degree of distilled liquor, but this high-quality turbid liquor also has its mellow flavor and strength.

Peng Jingqing also poured wine for Su Chen, it was not interesting to drink alone, so he pulled a man to fight for wine, so that he would not be lonely when he drank.

"Come, I salute you for a bowl, your performance today is very good, not only scolded those talented people who are looking for trouble, and left Ding Ershao angry, but also let me and Su Su sit at the women's table, and also followed the limelight. Hehe, that Murong Yan'er lost a thousand taels of silver to me this time, and she didn't look at the angry and depressed look at that time, and she laughed at me to death! ”

Su Chen couldn't resist her, so he raised his glass and drank two sips, and a mellow and bitter taste poured into his throat, and then in his throat, the spicy burning throat.

I have to say that the high-grade wine 'Manna White' is much spicier and more fierce than the ordinary turbid wine he bought back to Su Zhai.

He looked up at Peng Jingqing gulping down wine, uninhibited, shook his head and said: Wine is not drunk like this, you must first understand wine, and then taste wine, not drink it with a stuffy head, and you can't realize the meaning of wine. ”

Peng Jingqing was stunned and said, "What is wine? Isn't that how wine is drunk? ”

Su Chen said with a smile: "This drinking is also a science, which has been described in detail by many literati and elegant guests since ancient times, such as Li Bai, who tasted wine like this: Lanling wine tulips, jade bowls with amber light, but so that the host can get drunk, I don't know where it is." ”

Peng Jingqing had heard of Li Bai's name, but she had never memorized this poem, so her beautiful eyes bloomed, she looked at him and chuckled: "Sure enough, there are a lot of words for readers, and if there are more, a few more words to help the wine." ”

"So, how about I give you a poem with a hint of wine every time you have a drink?" Su Chen smiled slightly, thinking that he couldn't fight for wine, so he smashed it with poetry.

"Good!" Peng Jingqing was very refreshing, he raised his glass and drank, this time he didn't drink so fast, he tasted a few sips before he drained a glass of wine.

Su Chen nodded, and then said: "When you sing about wine, life is geometric, such as morning dew, and the days are hard...... This is Cao Mengdezan's Du Kang wine! ”

After Peng Jingqing heard this, he drank a cup, then poured another cup for himself, and said arrogantly: "Come again!" ”

Su Chen said: "The golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is shy and ten thousand dollars......"

"That's not bad either!" Peng Jingqing took another drink.

Su Chen continued: "Grape wine luminous cup, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately, Wang Han's poem!" ”

"Wang Han? I haven't heard of it, but it's written like it, this girl gives him face, a toast! Peng Jingqing drank another cup happily.

Su Chen said: "Listen to this sentence again, the master is not drunk after drinking, and he will not return in the twilight?" Gao Shi made. ”

After hearing this, Peng Jingqing nodded slightly and drank another glass.

In this way, cup after cup, after a while, she drank many glasses, the wine became poetic, the person had poetry, and although her cheeks and complexion were as red as a layer of rouge, her eyes were getting brighter and brighter.

Peng Jingqing was full of interest, and felt that it was not enough to drink alone, so she forced Su Chen to drink a few glasses with her.

Bai Susu smiled faintly beside her, and did not stop it, let the two of them drink and frolic, she would occasionally pick up vegetables for Ling'er next to her, and she also liked this well-behaved director's little sister.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Su Chen couldn't remember how many cups he had been beaten by Peng Jingqing, he only felt top-heavy, the wine was surging, and he was a little dizzy.

He looked at Peng Jingqing in surprise, this girl drank three times as much as himself, although the jade face was crimson and delicate, but her eyes were like the moon lying in the autumn water, but they were brighter, and she was not drunk.

"I'll rub it, this girl's milk can also be drunk......" Su Chen couldn't stand it a little, worried that she would fight for wine again, so she could only lie on the table and pretend to be drunk, but this time, her head was dizzy and painful, and she soon really fell asleep.

An hour or two later, when Su Chen woke up, his head was still a little drowsy, but his consciousness had recovered a little, and he was almost past the strength of the wine.

Su Chen opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed, covered with a silk quilt, with a faint fragrance between the pillow and futon, and the curtains and ornaments were pale red, like a woman's boudoir.

He turned his face sideways and saw a graceful figure in front of the screen, sitting quietly at the table, working on the accounts and papers, and from time to time there was a crackling sound of the jade bead abacus.

"Leukin? How did I sleep in her room? Su Chen was a little surprised, sat up and put on his shoes, walked out of the inner xuan, and stood beside Bai Susu.

Bai Susu heard the voice, turned his face to the side, saw Su Chen wake up and get out of bed, and said calmly: "You are awake." ”

"How did I sleep here?"

"You've drunk too much." Bai Susu said that the clouds are light and the wind is light.

Su Chen thought to himself that I knew that I had drunk too much, but it wasn't a direct reason to sleep in your bed! After all, there are many guest rooms in the backyard of Bairun Building.

"Just ...... Did I sleep by myself? ”

"Well, what else?" Bai Susuri replied of course.

"......" Su Chen felt a little overthinking, and smiled awkwardly: "I mean, didn't Qin Qin drink too much?" ”

Bai Susu showed a hint of a smile, shook her head and said, "No, she drank just right, not much!" I was in the garden all afternoon, teaching Ling'er to practice boxing. ”

Su Chen's face was embarrassed, he was a good man, but he was drunk by a weak woman, and the amount he drank was only one-third of the other party, how could he be embarrassed?

No, Peng Jingqing is not a weak woman, she is a female man, she is more powerful than ordinary men, and she drinks a lot, so she must not be measured by a little woman!

Thinking about it this way, Su Chen's heart was much more balanced, and he looked at Bai Susu's copying and writing on the paper, which were all in traditional Chinese 'One Two Three Wants' numbers, and asked tentatively: "Su Su, are you checking the accounts?" ”

Bai Susu nodded and said: "Yes, in addition to the main business of ceramics, the Bai family also has many side auxiliary businesses, restaurants, cloth shops, pawns, rice shops, etc., there are dozens of shops in Guangrun Prefecture, large and small, and you need to check the accounts every month, in and out, whether it is a profit or a loss, in order to know in your heart." The accounts outside Runzhou, my grandfather is also handing them over to me one after another, so I am a little busier. ”

She sighed lightly, she was very good, and she also hoped that like other ladies, she could spend the moon before and after, find a wishful husband, and live a life of respect for the United States. However, under the pressure of the family's heavy responsibilities, Bai Susu needs to carry the family business and needs to put in more effort than men.

She had no one to confide in these words, and for some reason, when she said them in front of Su Chen at this time, she felt that there was no sense of disobedience, which relieved her inner pressure a little.

Su Chen sat down beside her and said with a smile: "You are too slow like this, the accounting is troublesome, you need to calculate many times, it is time-consuming and laborious, why don't I hand you a few number symbols and a few formulas, which can save you a lot of work." ”
