Chapter 174: Before the Storm
"Master Sun, Master Sun, I salute the two of you for a cup!"
Whenever he was stunned, someone would come and toast him and his father. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But this time it's not Yun Qiumeng, it's Xiao Kui, the son of Xiao Chenghao, the head of the Huanfeng faction.
He had no reason to refuse this glass of wine, but when he thought that his wine glass had been used by Yun Qiumeng, he had no intention of drinking again, so he casually found a reason and shirked it.
Looking at the cloud autumn dream, after Sun Shuyan finished toasting, he sat back next to Ruan Zhinan. Originally, the little couple could take the opportunity to have a good time, but the Jiang family's brother and sister stuck to Ruan Zhinan like a dog skin plaster.
Especially that Jiang Lianji, not only occupied the place and did not leave, but also always deliberately fed Ruan Zhinan all kinds of fruit snacks in front of Yun Qiumeng.
"Zhinan, I'm going to go to my brother-in-law and Zhongli for a drink, do you love to come!" Throwing off this sentence, Yun Qiumeng turned his head and left in style.
"I'm sorry, I'm out of company!" Ruan Zhinan got up and followed Yun Qiumeng, leaving the Jiang brothers and sisters looking at each other.
In this way, Yan, Nan, Meng, and You were crowded in front of a table, and Yun Qiumeng kept grinning endlessly, as if he had picked up a million taels of silver.
Except for Ruan Zhinan, who accompanied the laughter throughout the whole process, the other two were already a little impatient, especially Gu Huaiyan. He couldn't bear it anymore, he picked up a bunch of grapes and stuffed it into Yun Qiumeng's mouth, "Even if today is your father's birthday banquet, you won't laugh like this!"
"Jiuqu Mandarin Duck Pot!" Zhong Liyou suddenly focused his gaze on the wine pot in Yun Qiumeng's hand, and couldn't help but pronounce its name.
"What is a nine-song mandarin duck pot?" Gu Huaiyan and Ruan Zhinan asked in unison.
After spitting the grapes on the table, Yun Qiumeng put the wine jug on the table for everyone to see, "That's it!
"Awards, awards!" After being modest, Zhong Liyou began to talk endlessly about the origin of the Ninety-Five Mandarin Duck Pot.
"During the Warring States Period, King Chu Huai had a favorite concubine named Zheng Sleeve, and she ordered someone to make this Jiuqu Mandarin Duck pot in order to facilitate taking medicine. Unlike regular flasks, the magic of this jug is that it has a partition in the middle that splits the jug in two, so that the same flask can pour two different drinks. ”
After listening to Zhong Liyou's explanation, Gu Huaiyan and Ruan Zhinan looked at the wine jug with incredible eyes at the same time. None of them had ever heard of a flask that could hold two kinds of wine, let alone a flask.
Yun Qiumeng happily poured a glass for each of the three of him, and Gu Huaiyan took the lead in speaking: "Extremely sweet, what kind of wine is this?"
"Brother Gu, this is not wine, it's peach juice!" Ruan Zhinan tasted it at once.
After nodding, Gu Huaiyan pointed to the wine jug and asked, "Didn't you say that this wine jug can hold two kinds of wine?
"This ......" Yun Qiumeng lowered his head a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's not wine, it's horse urine ......"
"What!" Hearing this, Gu Huaiyan and Ruan Zhinan suddenly felt their appetites churning a little, but fortunately, Zhong Liyou spoke in time to persuade them: "Don't worry, you are drinking peach juice, not horse urine!"
I saw Zhong Liyou gently turn the dark bead on the handle, "Only when this dark bead is green will horse urine be poured out." As he spoke, he turned the bead back to red, "The spout is also separated, so what we drink is indeed peach juice, no problem!"
Gu and Ruan were relieved at this time.
"Awesome!" Yun Qiumeng gave Zhong Liyou a thumbs up with a gaze full of approval. On the other hand, Zhong Liyou shook his head regretfully, "You girl, you actually use this baby to fill horse urine, it's really a tyrannical thing!"
"You like to give it to you, take it back and brush it!" Saying that, Yun Qiumeng very generously pushed the wine jug to Zhong Liyou's side, but Zhong Liyou pushed it back.
At this time, Ruan Zhinan suddenly asked curiously: "Meng'er, who did you give horse urine to drink?"
When he asked like this, Yun Qiumeng began to lean forward and laugh again, "Who can there be, of course it's Sun Shuyan, who made him so bad!"
Hearing this, Ruan Zhinan coughed twice in embarrassment, "Meng'er, although this Sun Shuyan is not a good person, isn't it a bit too much to trick him into drinking horse urine?"
"It's not bad for me, it's what he wants to drink!" After finishing speaking, Yun Qiumeng told Sun Shuyan about exchanging wine glasses with him again, and Ruan Zhinan couldn't say anything now, if he wanted to blame, he could only blame Sun Shuyan himself.
Zhong Liyou smiled and patted her head with a fan, "He is such a cautious person, if he hadn't used this Jiuqu Mandarin Duck Pot, he really wouldn't have been able to deceive him! ”
The three of them laughed again, and Gu Huaiyan on the side suddenly asked, "How can you be sure that Sun Shuyan will definitely exchange wine glasses with you?" If he doesn't change them, will you drink that cup of horse urine?"
Putting away his smile, Yun Qiumeng replied solemnly: "A long time ago, I lived with my brother in the Sleepless City for a few days, and their city lord once told me that many things are determined by a person's own personality and his opinion of others.
If it was Zhinan and Zhongli, they would never exchange glasses with me. But Sun Shuyan was different, he didn't believe that I would sincerely toast to him, and felt that I would definitely do something in the wine. When he saw me drinking, he thought I was going to play with my glasses, so he exchanged glasses with me.
So when I drank all the wine in the glass, I teased him again before leaving, otherwise he wouldn't have been at ease for a day today. ”
Only then did everyone suddenly realize that Sun Shuyan didn't know that he had drunk horse urine, and he was still talking and laughing with other people.
Only Zhong Liyou expressed great curiosity about the city lord in Yun Qiumeng's mouth, "Girl, where is the sleepless city you are talking about? Who is that city lord? If you have the chance, I really want to meet him." ”
Where even Zhong Liyou didn't know, its mystery can be imagined.
"I also hope you will have the opportunity to meet him. After saying this, Yun Qiumeng got up and came to Yun Shu's side, "Dad, my daughter has come to celebrate my father's birthday, I wish you a long life, and the pines and cypresses will be evergreen." ”
Yun Shu lightly flicked on Yun Qiumeng's head, "You finally remembered that your father is here, and your father still thinks that you only have your friends in his eyes!"
"Of course my daughter won't forget her father, this new dress is to celebrate her father's birthday, isn't it good?"
Looking at the group of dancing girls, none of them can compare with Yun Qiumeng.
With such a daughter, how could Yun Shu not be proud! He smiled and applauded Yun Qiumeng, "No one can look better than our dreams." Then he looked at Yun Naiting on the side again, "Ting'er, did you say?"
Yun Naiting nodded and said, "Naturally, Meng'er is the most beautiful." ”
In fact, the reason why Yun Qiumeng suddenly left those three people here was to see Yun Naiting. When she mentioned the Sleepless City just now, she felt a little sad inexplicably, because she knew that Yun Naiting's return to Cheng Yinni was a foregone conclusion.
As Cheng Yinni once told her, many things are determined by a person's own character and his opinion of others. According to Yun Naiting's character, he must return to the Sleepless City and keep his promise to stay by his city lord for the rest of his life.
That is the case, she should come to see her brother for the last time! After glancing at Yun Naiting, Yun Qiumeng slowly stood up, "Thank you brother for the compliment, Zhinan and they are still waiting for me, if there is nothing to do, I will go over first." ”
Looking at Yun Qiumeng's back as he gradually faded away, Yun Naiting felt a trace of sadness in his heart. Yes, he's leaving, and after he's gone, he'll never see anyone here again.
After knowing that secret, he still regarded Yun Qiumeng as the closest person and one of the people he wanted to protect the most. But as soon as today passes, all the old times related to Yunjiabao and Yunqiumeng will be locked in memory.
But he has no regrets and will not regret it. Because Cheng Yinni is no less important to him than Yun Qiumeng, that friendship and accumulated brotherhood are enough to support him for the rest of his life.
What's more, he has already seen clearly that Ruan Zhinan is a person worthy of entrusting for life. His kindness to Yun Qiumeng is definitely not pretended.
Yun Shu sensed his gaze and proposed, "Go over and have a drink with them! ”
Although he wanted to go, Yun Naiting still shook his head, "Today is my father's birthday, of course the child is here to accompany you." ”
After the father and son drank a few glasses of each other, Yun Shu realized that there was one person missing from him, "Why are there only the three of you?
Hearing this, Mo Ye, Yun Dai, and Yun Hong looked at each other, because no one had seen Yun Tou since the beginning of the banquet.
However, Shanshan, who was in charge of adding wine, suddenly spoke: "Brother Yuntou went out early in the morning, saying that you have something urgent to hand over to him! ”
Now it was Yunshu's turn to be dumbfounded, "Are you sure he said that? I never told him what to do." ”
"I don't know about this Shanshan, but Brother Yuntou did say so. ”
"I know, go back to Meng'er!"
After drinking Shanshan, Yun Shu's heart began to uneasy, "If what Shanshan said is the truth, then why did Yuntou lie? And in my name." This kid has a very bright brain, but he is not as down-to-earth and hard-working as the other three. Over the years, although I have done a lot of opportunistic things, this is the first time I dared to tell such a big lie on the day of my birthday party. ”
Suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed in Yun Shu's mind - Yun Tou betrayed him.
It turned out that what he thought was right, Yuntou did betray him, and the person who bought him was Jiang Lianjun.
