As soon as the Chinese New Year's Eve arrived, the entire city was lit up everywhere, and many places also prepared lantern festivals, and Su Fu had already arranged it two days before the New Year, hung up big lanterns, and posted blessing characters.

Linlang wrapped red envelopes for everyone in the house, and after the holiday, they could go home for the New Year, and after the people of the Su Mansion left, there were less than ten people left in the house, and the mansion of Nuoda looked very deserted.

Early in the morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Fuzi got up early, asked Chu Huan to prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, personally wrote a few couplets, and asked Chu Huan to post them on several doors of the house, while Su Niang and Rulian followed Chu Li to cut the word "Fu", and red lanterns were also hung on the door of the house, although it was winter, the house was jubilant.

After noon, Chu Li led Su Niang and Ru Lian to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, in previous years, Chu Li and Su Niang had a very shabby life, Li Fuzi was also alone for the New Year, but this year is different from previous years, not only bought a large number of New Year goods, but also the family got together, lively, originally Li Fuzi adhered to the rules of men not going down the kitchen, but when he saw Chu Huan wrapping dumplings, he also helped, and the family was happy.

In the evening, the table is full of dishes, and naturally Li Fuzi's favorite bamboo sake is indispensable, a family of five people around the table, happy, Chu Huan even prepared a gift for everyone, Li Fuzi likes to dance and make ink, Chu Huan took the trouble to prepare a good inkstone and a good brush for him, only happy that Li Fuzi couldn't close his mouth.

After two rounds of drinking, the family was talking auspicious words, but Chu Huan had already gotten up and said, "Mother, uncle, you eat first, I'll go out!" ”

Li Fuzi said: "At this time, where are you going?" ”

"The people over there in Su Mansion are gone." Chu Huan said: "I want to go over and see how the situation is." ”

Chu Li hurriedly said: "It's time to take a look, people have helped you so much...... Would you like to take something over? In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, it is always not good to go empty-handed. ”

Chu Huan said with a smile: "I'll bring a jar of wine over, there is a Su Bo in that mansion, who likes to drink, I went over to drink a few cups with him." At that moment, he carried a jar of wine from home and rode to Su Mansion.

The door of the Su Mansion was closed, but the lantern in front of the door was on, Chu Huan stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it took a long time for a voice to come out: "Who?" ”

Chu Huan responded: "It's me, I'm Chu Huan." ”

The door opened with a "creak", but the door was opened by a variety of personal maids Cui Ping, who saw Chu Huan and said in surprise: "Master Chu, you ...... What are you doing here? ”

Chu Huan led the horse into the courtyard and said with a smile: "Can you have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner?" ”

Cui Ping smiled: "Eating in it." Yes, Master Chu, Cuiping greets you for the New Year, can you have a red envelope reward? ”

Chu Huan laughed and said, "I'm still about to ask you for a red envelope." ”

"It's stingy." Cui Ping grinned, and Chu Huan had already asked, "Yes, where is the big boss?" Looks like I'm supposed to be the first to come to her door to greet her! ”

Cui Ping's expression darkened, and said, "I'll take you there!" He led Chu Huan to the garden, pointed to a small room and said, "Miss is alone inside, we don't dare to go in...... She...... She seems to be drinking, you go and see her, Master Chu, you persuade Miss, don't let her drink too much......! ”

Chu Huan frowned, the back garden was very deserted, and the room seemed very lonely in the garden, so he walked straight to the door, knocked lightly, and after a while, he stopped Linlang and said in a somewhat drunk voice: "Don't make noise with me...... You guys...... Don't bother me ......! ”

Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "Big Boss, it's me, I'm Chu Huan." ”

Soon, the door of the house was opened, and Linlang's pretty face with a red color was revealed, white and red, very charming and charming, but with a hazy color in her eyes, she was already drunk, and when she saw Chu Huan, she smiled charmingly and said, "You ...... What are you doing here? Come...... Drink with me ......! Chu Huan entered the house, Linlang closed the door casually, and sat down at the table.

Chu Huan saw five or six dishes on the table, but they were all cold, the dishes had not touched the chopsticks at all, but there were five or six pots of wine next to them, two pots of wine had already been drunk, and only a small half of the third pot was left.

After Linlang sat down, she picked up the wine glass and was about to drink it, but Chu Huan had already grabbed her hand and frowned, "Big Dong, you can't drink anymore...... You've drunk too much......! ”

"You're too much......!" Linlang was drunk and waved his hand: "Why don't you let me drink...... Take your hands away, I'm going to drink...... My Su family runs a wine shop, and some of them are wine ......! "Take a cup and drink it all.

At this time, she did not have the dignified and cautious attitude of her usual life, like a child who was greedy for cups.

Chu Huan sat down on the chair beside her, seeing her like this, for some reason, her heart was sour, she reached out and took the wine glass from her hand, and said softly: "Linlang, don't drink anymore......!" ”

Linlang blinked, her pretty face was flushed, her starry eyes were hazy, and she looked extremely beautiful, at this moment, Chu Huan couldn't help but scratch the words "concubine drunk" in her mind.

Although she was already drunk, Linlang's movements were still elegant, she supported the table with one hand, supported her pink chin with the back of her hand, looked at Chu Huan with hazy eyes, and said, "You give it to me...... Pour me wine...... Do you drink alcohol? Drink with me ......! ”

Chu Huan sighed, put her wine glass down, and was about to get up to make a bowl of hangover soup, but Linlang had already stretched out her other hand to grab Chu Huan's shirt and said, "Don't leave...... Why do you want to go, you ...... You don't want to drink with me...... She loosened Chu Huan's shirt again, and her expression became gloomy: "It turns out ...... It turned out that there was no one to drink with me...... I'm still ...... Still a ...... alone! ”

Chu Huan did it again, he saw the disappointment and loneliness in Linlang's eyes, he couldn't bear it, he poured Linlang's cup full of wine, he took a wine jug, stared at Linlang's eyes, and said, "I'll drink with you!" ”

Linlang laughed and asked, "Why do you want to drink with me?" Who are you? ”

Chu Huan smiled bitterly, it seemed that Linlang was really drunk, and said softly: "I am Chu Huan." If you want to drink, I'll accompany you, you're not alone. ”

Linlang held her cheeks, looked at Chu Huan, and said, "Okay, you drink, how much can you drink?" ”

Chu Huan didn't say much, picked up the wine jug, raised his head and took a big sip, Linlang said with a smile: "It turns out that you can drink...... Yes, your name is Chu Huan...... Chu Huan ......! She looked at Chu Huan for a while, but for some reason, she suddenly fell on the table and sobbed.

Chu Huan was a little flustered for a while, and said hurriedly: "Linlang, you ...... What happened to you? ”

Linlang cried for a while, then raised her head again, her tears rippled in her eyes, and she was lovely: "I thought you wouldn't come, I've been waiting for you to come...... You're still here......! ”

Chu Huan listened to her sadness and said softly: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, let's not cry." took out the handkerchief and wiped her tears for Linlang, Linlang looked at Chu Huan stupidly, and when Chu Huan was about to withdraw his hand, he suddenly reached out and held one of his hands, and said softly: "Do you want to go?" Would you like to stay with me for a while...... It won't take too long, just a while. You're gone, it's going to be cold here, I'm ...... I'm afraid of cold ......! ”

Chu Huan said softly: "I'm not leaving, I'll stay with you." ”

Linlang smiled, she held Chu Huan's hand with one hand, looking very satisfied: "Your hands are so warm...... Chu Huan, do you know that no one wants to accompany me, only you are willing...... Year after year, the only one in the lonely lamp ......! With that, she picked up her glass, drank it down, and coughed violently.

Chu Huan hurriedly persuaded, "You can't drink anymore...... Linlang, can I help you go and rest? ”

"I don't want to rest. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and I want to drink. Linlang let go of Chu Huan's hand: "Chu Huan, do you know that I have a lot of things on my mind...... I can't breathe ......! ”

Chu Huan said: "If you have anything on your mind, don't take it to heart, it will be better to say it." ”

Linlang blinked, drunk, and asked, "Do you want to hear it?" And he said, "But I told you, and thou shalt not tell anyone...... Can't tell Chu Huan, okay? ”

Chu Huan opened his mouth, Linlang seemed to be really confused, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but Linlang had already come closer, and said in a low voice: "I...... I like him, but ...... But I dare not say to him, and I am not worthy of him...... What do you say you should do...... I really like his ......! ”

Chu Huan was stunned.

"That day...... He helped me with drugs that day and he was holding my legs...... From that moment on, I fell in love with him ......! Linlang whispered: "He must not know, I tell you a person, you can't tell him...... He'll look down on me, will you promise me? ”

Linlang's soft delicate body was already very close to Chu Huan, and the body fragrance emanating from her body drilled straight into Chu Huan's nostrils, refreshing people's hearts, and a strand of black silk passed over Chu Huan's face, itchy, but with a faint fragrance.

Chu Huan pondered for a moment, and finally said in a low voice, "Why don't you dare to tell him?" If you don't tell him, how will he know your mind? ”

Linlang pulled away from his body, shook his head and said, "He has the ability, and sooner or later he will make great achievements...... What ...... I am! She had a bitter smile on her face: "I'm just a widow, how can I be worthy of him?" She said softly, "From the first day I married into their family, I knew how much I hated him, and he didn't do his job...... made the appearance of a decent man and a gentleman, but behind his back, he was looking for flowers and asking willows...... The wine emptied his body, and his mother kept blaming me for not being able to add to their family, not knowing that his son was a useless man...... He was drunk that day, and I had an argument with him, and he actually called me a slut, and it was so dark, and he was going to kick me out of their house......! ”

Chu Huan frowned, he had already understood that the "he" that Linlang was talking about later was the deceased eldest son of the Fan family, that is, Linlang's ex-husband.

Linlang was obviously extremely miserable in her heart, so when she was drunk, she unconsciously poured out her suffering, and Chu Huan listened quietly without saying a word.

"I left the place that filled me with pain overnight...... Within ten days of leaving, he took another concubine...... Within a few months, he was dead. Linlang said softly: "But after I learned about his death, I was not sad at all...... I thought I wouldn't like any man in this life, but ...... But......! Linlang stared into Chu Huan's eyes and said word by word: "But when I met you, I fell in love with your ......!" ”
