Chapter 177: The Drunkard
waited until Ke Mingxu's figure disappeared before Jinghu slowly walked into the cabin. She's in a really good mood, she's not been so relaxed in a long time.
The pace was very slow, and I looked at the sparkling waves on the river all the way.
When she returned to the cabin, Mr. Zhou had already picked up a pot of wine left over from dinner, which Ke Mingxu did not allow him to drink.
It was only the first night, and she just turned a blind eye.
Seeing Jinghu approaching the cabin, the old man immediately raised the wine jug and drank most of the remaining half of the jug, as if he was afraid that someone would rob him.
Jinghu snickered in her heart and sat down on the embroidered pier where she had sat just now. "Uncle, what are you doing in such a hurry, I won't rob you." He took out the handkerchief he had with him, so that he could dry the wine that hung from his beard.
Old Mr. Zhou was not polite, took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then smiled, "Ming Xu has been talking to you on the deck for a long time, didn't he tell you this?" ”
Jinghu looked around, and looking through this window, it should be impossible to see the place where they had just spoken.
"How do you know?"
Mr. Zhou put the wine jug in his hand, smiled a little mysteriously like a child, and stretched out his hand to point to the sky, "I didn't see it, but I saw the moon." ”
Jinghu was no longer entangled in this, and stretched out his hand to put the wine jug on the ground, "Then you also know how Brother Ke Shi told me, and that's it for today, don't be embarrassed for me, otherwise I won't dare to keep you living here." ”
"Mingshu is just worrying about it, my body is not good, and I can't drink a few sips of wine, really." He shook his head with a smile and glanced at Jing Hu again, "Jing girl, you always tell me how much wine you have in that wine cellar." ”
"Where did this wine come from, I really never drank it."
Jinghu smiled, revealing two small pear vortices, looking innocent and harmless, "Don't worry about how much wine you have, anyway, there won't be less of you, and there won't be more of yours." I'm going to listen to Brother Keshi. ”
"As for the source of this wine, I asked my third brother for help, and you also know him. Eating, drinking, and having fun, he recognized the second among the children of the powerful in Yanjing, and no one dared to recognize the first. When you return to Yanjing, I'll ask him for you. ”
Mr. Zhou also smiled kindly, looking like he was going to abduct and sell children, "You listen to Mingxu like this, Mingxu is my student, he listens to me the most, why don't you listen to my words directly, and save trouble." ”
"Uncle, you're drunk, but I'm not, don't think I don't know what your idea is."
Mr. Zhou lay down, closed his eyes, as if he was carefully smacking the taste of Fangcai's wine: "The old man's drunkard's intention is indeed to pour this wine, but the little county lord, a sober man, coaxed the old man here today, what is the idea?" ”
"It's not like being bored floating on the river, looking for an old man to accompany you and pass the time."
I have always felt that this old man is acting a little out of tune, that is, he is just good at learning, and he is also like a mirror in his heart.
was seen through by others, Jinghu was not annoyed, leaned forward, "Since my uncle knows my thoughts, and those who wish to take the bait today must be willing to help me?" ”
Mr. Zhou opened one eye, "It depends on how sincere the little county lord is." ”
Jinghu sat up straight, "Anyway, I always have to do what I promised Brother Ke Shi." Drinking too much alcohol is really harmful, but it's for your health, and I can't indulge your temperament. ”
"But—"
"But what?"
Jinghu stretched out two fingers to compare, "However, if the amount is slightly more than what Brother Ke Shi said, I can still call the shots." As long as you don't just run to the deck, you can ask someone to follow you when you go out. ”
Mr. Zhou turned sideways and snorted coldly. It didn't take long for him to come back to himself, "How much more, how much?" ”
Jinghu thought for a while, "More than half a pot a day, so that you can drink it while admiring the moon." Then I found the maid who is the best at making tea around me to make tea for you, this is always okay, right? ”
Mr. Zhou nodded, "That's pretty much the same." I even played your Laozi's handboard when I was a child, but I didn't expect to be managed by your little girl today, it's really a hero. ”
Jinghu retorted to him, "It's not that I'm in the hands of this little girl, it's in the hands of Brother Ke Shi, I'm just carrying out his orders." Besides, your old man is on my ship at the moment, so you have to be polite to me. ”
Jinghu said this, but he laughed sincerely, "Little girl, there are still some cuteness in temper." Even if the words are flattering, they will be more useful. ”
"But—"
"But what?" This old gentleman also learned from her to sell off, and her tone was more anxious than he had just been. The drunkard's intention is not to drink, her mind lies in Ke Mingxu, which is much more important than Mr. Zhou's wine.
"However, you can't betray Mingxu, and naturally I can't. Little girl, how much do you think about him, and how long can it last, do you know it yourself? ”
Jinghu tilted his head slightly, showing a bit of arrogance, "I fell in love with Brother Ke Shi at first sight. It's been more than a year now, and if it weren't for my young age, I would have begged my father and mother to make decisions for me. ”
"Oh?" Mr. Zhou stroked his beard and looked interested, "Then what do you like about him, and how much do you know about him?" ”
Jinghu was confident, "If you can say it clearly, then it's nothing like it." Likes are sudden and unreasonable. I myself understand my feelings for Brother Keshi. ”
"I have done many things for him, and they may not have helped him, but they are very important to me. It was also in these things that I slowly understood what he meant to me. ”
"It's good that I understand it myself, I don't think these emotions need to be explained to others, there is no way to explain them to others, and I don't need others to understand."
Mr. Zhou stroked his beard and looked at Jinghu with a bit of banter in his eyes, "How can such a simple thing be said by you to be a little mysterious and mysterious." ”
Jing Hu hadn't finished answering his question, ignoring his teasing, and smiling a little flatteringly, just like the gang of people who always followed her father's side.
She hates these people the most, but she can't help it, who told her to like other students. The road to chasing a husband is long, and it is worth it.
"As for how much I know Brother Ke Shi, then I really don't dare to make a big deal in front of my uncle. So it's not like you're trying to get my uncle on my ship and get ready to serve you. ”
