Chapter 3: The Meaning of the Drunkard
Shuying really didn't expect Lu Xiaolu to stay, there are only two bedrooms in the house now, and one is an unrenovated room that is temporarily used as a room full of miscellaneous items, and a small room is temporarily separated from the utility room as a kitchen.
Their house was built by Shuying's father himself many years ago, his father is a construction worker, and rural builders generally have no certification.
When building houses, red bricks were rarely used to build walls, and this kind of long stone strips were popular in the countryside. However, this risk factor is still relatively large, and the earthquake resistance is not enough, so the state is also encouraging the use of red brick walls.
The roof of the house is also a huge stone strip spliced together. Due to the particularity of the splicing between the stones, the gap between the stones is filled with cement, and there are often cracks and water seepage. As a result, the walls of this stone room were covered with water stains, and the face of an elderly lady looked wrinkled.
The yard in front of the house was a cleared field paved with cement and surrounded by a wall, and a passion fruit tree was planted in the corner of the yard, and the vines of the fruit tree had climbed all over the corner of the wall.
Since the house is built in the village at the foot of the hill closest to the west, there are no houses on the west side or south, only one or two neighbors on the east side, which is relatively quiet. When the sky is free, Shuying likes to sit in the middle of the courtyard with a chair, bask in the sun, make tea, and enjoy leisure time leisurely.
At this time, the sky has darkened, the last ray of light is close to the deep mountains, and the cries of earthworms, crickets, and stone frogs come and go, and the weather in early summer is not very hot, and the evening is still a little cool.
The bright moon took over the work of the sun, shedding a silvery white light, and suddenly part of the walls of the village were covered in silver. Lu Xiaolu had never seen such an elegant, quiet, gentle and peaceful rural night, so in the middle of the courtyard, with his face held high towards the moonlight, his eyes closed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he took a deep breath and exhaled again.
At this time, she had forgotten the pain of being bitten by a snake in the afternoon, and was more immersed in the night that she felt was romantic. Living in the city all the year round, I have never felt such a comfortable and quiet night, listening to the sound of frogs that I have never heard, I feel that I am so close to nature, and my mood is more comfortable.
Shuying silently walked to Xiaolu's side, looking at her with her eyes closed, her white and tender cheeks were more white and flawless like pearl white under the bright moonlight, at this time Xiaolu had changed into a pair of hip-length hot pants, the top was a white crop top short shirt, and the bottom of the shirt was designed with a bow.
Looking at this stunner in the world, Shuying almost had evil thoughts for a while. But when I thought that he was that Lu Xiaolu, I didn't have any other thoughts. He whispered into her ear and screamed.
Xiaolu was called by him, and suddenly returned to reality from meditation outside the nine days, and also shouted, "I hate it, I am scared to death." As he spoke, he gently patted Shuying's chest with his hand. The book shadow couldn't dodge, so he had to smile to relieve the embarrassment.
"You sleep in my bedroom tonight, and I'll go to my uncle's house to sleep." Shuying felt that it was really not good for the two of them to live here, and if it reached Xue'er one day, it would really be impossible to wash it by jumping into the Yellow River. In addition, there are only two bedrooms in the house, and there is no extra room to use as a guest room.
"Then what if I get up at night to go to the toilet alone" Xiaolu pointed to the independent toilet in another corner of the courtyard, frowning anxiously. Since the house had not previously considered placing a toilet in the house, a toilet was added to the yard.
Shuying also knows that it's okay in summer, but in winter, it's really uncomfortable to open the door and go to the toilet in the courtyard outside. And for a girl, who is not familiar with life, it may be a bit dangerous to go out alone at night at any time, so she proposed, "Why don't I take you to my uncle's house to have a look, and if you are satisfied, you will live at my uncle's house." β
The two came to their uncle's house, which was more than 100 meters away from Shuying's house, and took Xiaolu to see the bedroom and independent bathroom on the third floor, and Xiaolu nodded contentedly.
"Then why don't you stay at your uncle's house at night, I'm afraid of boredom." Xiaolu's eyes stared straight at the shadow of the book, trying to read something from his eyes.
The aunt who was watching the room on the side had already seen that this girl was interested in Shuying, so she interjected, "There are three bedrooms on the third floor of the house, all of which are free, and they all have air conditioning, you can live in the shadow, don't let the girl be alone, thieves have been found stealing things in the village recently, so you still have to pay more attention to safety" The aunt's words were added, which made Xiaolu very grateful. Secretly winked at his aunt and thanked him with his left eye.
"Alright then," Shukage replied hesitantly.
So the two went downstairs and walked to Zhuge Yun's house, Xiaolu held Shuying's arm from time to time, and leaned her head on her arm. Shuying once wanted to break free, but was pulled by it.
The two were at a stalemate along the way, pulling and pulling to the door of Zhuge 's house. Zhuge Yun, who came back from buying a case of wine from outside, rode a motorcycle and parked directly next to the two of them, feeling jealous "You two are restrained, is it necessary to abuse our single dog like this?"
Shuying wanted to explain, but Xiaolu immediately answered, "Yo, Brother Pig, you said something wrong, it's a single Brother Pig, hehehehe." β
"Cut" Zhuge Yun walked into the house with the red wine, and secretly thought, "Let me meet you today." β
Entering the living room of the house, a group of people were already sitting around a round table, all of them were classmates who had played with Shuying in the same village since childhood, Shuying introduced Xiaolu one by one, and then found a seat to sit down.
"Beauty, red grapes or white grapes, or beer" Zhuge Yun asked Xiaolu with a bottle of red wine, and sat next to Xiaolu with an unlit cigarette in his mouth. At the same time, he took a bottle of Coca-Cola in his other hand and gave it to Shuying.
At this time, Wang Youwei, Xiaoying's elementary school tablemate, interrupted, "Eh, Xiaoying, how can you drink black, black is not good for your heart, what should you do if you drink your heart black, come on, drink red, after drinking it is delicate and ruddy and shiny, it will make you dozens of times younger." β
"That's it, it's hard to have time for everyone to get together, it's also rare, look at the old squad leader Biyun, people are lesbians, we can't lose to lesbians." Mingquan, who was sitting opposite, pointed to the wine glass of the Biyun squad leader next to him, and should drink.
"Okay, okay, it's not that you don't drink, are you going to do it one by one?" Shuying handed back the Coke in his hand to Zhuge Yun, "Let's have a bottle of beer, I can't do red wine" Shuying said this, feeling that he was stunned.
"Hey, why are they all red wine and beer, and white wine" Xiaolu saw it in her heart, and was a little angry in her heart, always feeling that everyone was targeting Shuying, so she shouted casually.
Hey, this girl, yes. Almost the entire table looked at each other in unison. Shuying also looked at Xiaolu curiously, wondering if this guy was here to make trouble.
Zhuge Yun got up and went to his bedroom to rummage through the cabinets for a long time, and found a bottle of aged 52-degree Wuliangye. A whole table of people has rarely drunk liquor, except for Zhuge Yun, who almost graduated from junior high school and came out to mix in society, dealt with people of all shapes and shapes, and drank some, no one else has ever challenged.
"Come, full." Xiaolu pointed to her own cup, and also pointed to Zhuge Yun's cup.
"Yes, come."
"This cup, as a newcomer, I would like to toast everyone with a cup" Xiaolu drank it all. Shuyingben wanted to apologize to her for being slow, but before she could say anything, Xiaolu had already raised her head and drank empty.
"The second cup, I hope you will bear with me in the future" Xiaolu raised her head, sent the cup to her mouth, and drank it again. After watching for five seconds, the others hurriedly clapped their hands.
"This third cup, respects Shuying, thank you for bringing me so much joy." It's another skilful toast. Then everyone began to clap their hands and coax, "Book Shadow, come one, Book Shadow, come one..."
Zhuge Yun was also stupid at this time, he wanted to treat this beauty at night, who would have thought that this girl drank so well, and was suddenly defeated by her momentum. How could self-esteem tolerate their own failures, so Zhuge Yun raised his glass to interrupt everyone's coaxing, "Okay, okay, let's raise a glass together to welcome the beauty of Xia Lu Xiaolu, welcome to the cold house, let the hut shine."
βChee
S" Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
Then Zhuge Yun motioned to the other classmates, suggesting that they all toast Xiaolu one by one, and then toast again after a circle, so that if they don't believe themselves, they won't be able to drink this girl.
Lu Xiaolu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, looking at the other people who want beer and red wine, one by one they want to come over to salute her, so she proposed, "In this way, I have a glass of white wine, 3 glasses of red wine, 5 glasses of beer, you look at it, the white wine is 52 degrees, the red wine is only 12 degrees at most, and the beer is 3-4 degrees, the degree is still the highest for me, otherwise I will drink it the other way, I will drink three glasses of red wine, and you will have a glass of white wine, can you?" You're all civilized people, so I don't think you should bully me as a weak woman. β
Xiaolu said in a straight tone at first, and when she reached the last sentence, her voice was immediately lowered, pretending to be a grievance and pitiful voice, holding her red face with both hands, and pursing her mouth, which made people want to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
This coquettish action, coupled with the agitation method, really made the longitudinal men present fascinated, pretending to be very MAN one by one, willing to pay a cup of white to a cup of white, Shuying apologized on the side, "Everyone warm up first, warm up first, don't drink so quickly." β
The others couldn't care anymore and began to toast. During the banquet, the squad leader Biyun left the table in advance due to the urging of his family. The rest are a group of boys gearing up, ready to fight Xiaolu to the end.
After a while, a bottle of liquor was drunk, and Zhuge Yun went to the house to rummage through the cabinets for a long time, and found another bottle of Wuliangye.
"So, let's roll the dice. Losers drink, how? Zhuge Yun proposed, he wanted to change the way of playing, this dice shake is a matter of probability, I don't believe that a few people can't stun her. Shuying gave Zhuge Yun a look, signaling that he was almost done.
Zhuge Yun pretended not to see it, and began to take out the dice, Zhuge Yun asked Shuying to sit in the village, and the remaining four people guessed a few.
In this way, the game went back and forth more than a dozen times, and several boys began to be a little confused, Xiaolu sat there and staggered, and Shuying drank more than a dozen glasses of red wine in front of him, and his stamina came up immediately, and several people no longer knew the world. Zhuge Yun's parents came to drink, and everyone dispersed, everyone walked out of the room with messy steps and staggered bodies.
Shuying and Xiaolu helped each other to walk towards their uncle's house, although Shuying had the stamina of red wine, but his consciousness was still sober, and he always felt that something behind him had been following them as he walked.
The book shadow stopped, turned sharply and looked behind him, and a black shadow flickered by. Shuying was so frightened that he was half awake from the wine, and quickly helped Xiaolu to his uncle's house. and sang and shouted to strengthen his courage.
"The big river flows eastward, you have me, I have everything, hehe, I have everything." Shuying was singing loudly, and suddenly a huge body wanted to grab Shuying's waist from behind, but he didn't catch it and grabbed Shuying's buttocks directly, saying that it was too late and that was fast, Shuying kicked behind him, probably kicking directly to the important part of the opponent's crotch, and screamed "Oh oh oh... With the sound of falling to the floor, Shuying took the opportunity to flee forward with Xiaolu.
