The hands trembled slightly, and the wine spilled out. Three to five days later, the news of pouring wine in front of Prince Dingtian's palace and toasting with him would surely spread throughout Jingzhou.

"Shopkeeper Xu, please." Li Luo held up a wine bowl with both hands, clinked glasses with Xu Baoshi and drank it all in one gulp. Xu Baoshi also finished the drink in a hurry, but unexpectedly he drank so fast that he choked and coughed. Li Luo laughed loudly.

, looking past him and landing on Xu Xilou behind him, he smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, I also want to toast you."

Xu Xilou was stunned and pointed at his nose in disbelief: "Me? Still have my share?"

Xu Baoshi was in great spirits. He turned around and cursed with a smile: "Why, you want me to send it there for you!?"

Xu Xilou hurriedly stepped forward, but did not dare to respond to Li Luo's courtesy. He bowed and took the wine bowl, and drank the bowl of wine with Li Luo.

"Shopkeeper Xu, see you later." Li Luo laughed loudly, got on his horse, and galloped away with the soldiers. Xu Baoshi squinted his eyes, held the unfinished jar of wine tightly in his arms, and watched the soldiers go away.

I stood in front of the house for half an hour.

Xu Xilou stayed by his side and said with a smile: "Dad, our Xu family has stolen the show this time. Dad, you have such good eyesight!"

Xu Baoshi laughed happily, stuffed the wine into Xu Xilou's arms, and said: "This jar of wine has been sealed and buried. I will take it out when the ancestors are worshipped and let the ancestors have a taste."

Xu Xilou couldn't help laughing and said with a smile: "Dad, this wine is only worth two taels of silver at most."

"You know what the heck!" Xu Baoshi glared at him, "Two taels? You can't even buy it for two thousand taels!" After saying that, he walked in with satisfaction. For several days, Xu Baoshi could be heard throughout the Xu residence.

Crazy laughter.

Soon after leaving the small market in Tanghe, Mei Wuxiu was about to say goodbye. Gu Lianglei tried to persuade her to stay for a long time, but she insisted on leaving and refused to stay no matter what. Gu Lianglei couldn't force it, so he could only sigh secretly, but Li Luo couldn't.

He never left her alone and teased Zhuang Xiaoqi all day long, making Li Qianyu very jealous.

It was okay for Mei Wuxiu to leave, but Zhuang Xiaoqi was reluctant to leave and cried several times. However, her mother, who loved her most in the past, was determined and scolded her several times, but she just didn’t want to stay with Li Luo and Gu anymore.

Beside Liang Lei.

"Little Qibao."

"Uncle Luo, my name is Zhuang Xiaoqi, not Xiao Qibao. If you call me by my nickname again, I will ignore you."

"Do you want to trace Sister Xue?"

"think."

"Where's Akiyoshi?"

"think."

"The osmanthus cake, date cake, almond cake, sugar glutinous rice cake..."

Zhuang Xiaoqi swallowed uncontrollably, his eyes turned green with greed, and he swallowed hard.

"Want to eat?"

"think!"

"Then do you want to go back to Qiminglou?"

Zhuang Xiaoqi was just about to nod when Bie Mei Wuxiu pinched her hard, and her face immediately started to cry. He looked at Li Luo who was trying to persuade him, and then at his mother who had a bad look on her face, and she swallowed the words she wanted to say.

go back.

"Actually, the desire for words and tongue are all external things. Little Qibao has grown up, and he can have fine clothes and fine food, as well as simple meals, right?"

"That's right." Zhuang Xiaoqi blinked her beautiful eyes, puffed out her chest and replied crisply.

"But your sister Su Xue and sister Qiuji have cried several times thinking about you."

"Ah, then I'll go see them."

"real?"

"real!"

"Keep your word?"

"count!"

"A man means what he says."

"It's hard to chase the horse!"

"Lagou!"

"Lagou!"

Seeing that the big one and the small one were not in shape at all, Mei Wu's sleeves and eyebrows trembled several times, and she looked at them both helplessly and amusedly. Gu Liang covered her mouth with tears and snickered. This strategy was really useful for a little baby.

It's a bit embarrassing.

Li Luo touched Zhuang Xiaoqi's head and sighed deliberately: "What if your mother doesn't let you go?"

"Then I'll go by myself!"

"Zhuang Xiaoqi!" Mei Wuxiu shouted sharply, Zhuang Xiaoqi shivered, and Ai Ai wilted down periodically. Li Luo laughed loudly, "Okay, next time when you get to Qiming Building, I will

I promise you that I will never call you Xiao Qibao again, but Miss Xiao Qibao."

“It’s a deal!”

Mei Wuxiu's face turned pale with anger, and Li Luo exclaimed with added jealousy: "You can't be a female university student."

"Your Majesty!"

"Haha, let's go, see you in Zhuocheng!"

"See you in Zhuocheng, Uncle Luo!" Zhuang Xiaoqi waved his hands desperately, with a blush on his face. When Li Luo disappeared, he remembered his livid-faced mother beside him, and called in a low voice, "Mother."

"Don't call me mother. If you like him so much, go ahead and call him mother."

"Hey, but Uncle Luo is a boy."

Mei Wuxiu was so angry that she turned around and left. Zhuang Xiaoqi jumped up and followed her, tugging on her mother's sleeve and never leaving her.

"By the way, mother, aunt gave me a small package and asked me to give it to you. I forgot to mention it just now."

Mei Wuxiu looked back and Zhuang Xiaoqi took out a small and delicate package from his arms. It was very light. After Mei Wuxiu opened it, there was not much inside, but there were a few banknotes, about a thousand taels.

It was enough for their mother and daughter to stay. Mei Wuxiu gently rolled up the package and continued to walk forward, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

The two figures slowly walked away, and Mei Wuxiu herself did not notice that she was taking Zhuang Xiaoqi to the north.

Yizhou, outside Erxiu City.

Mu Tianlang's army is still dozens of miles away and has passed Erxiu City without entering.

Outside the city, on the green hills and beside the green water, Li Luo led a carriage and walked slowly. The gate of Erxiu City was in sight in the distance. No matter how far the road was, there would always be a moment when it would arrive.

Li Luo reined in his horse and stared at the city gate for a long time, and said harmoniously: "We're here." The curtain of the carriage moved, and a head popped out from inside. It was Ju Rui, looking at Erxiu City not far away.

Sighing slightly, I came and went, thousands of miles away, very far, and finally came back.

It seems like something is missing.

"The rest of the way is not far, so I won't see you off. Ju Rui, go home with your lady."

Ju Rui snorted softly and secretly shed tears. Li Luo smiled, patted her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't be sad. Although Zhuocheng is prosperous, there may not be many things worthy of nostalgia. Go

I've seen it before, that's all, Erxiu City has outstanding people and is a good place to return to."

"I know, thank you, Your Majesty." Ju Rui responded in a low voice. Li Luo looked at the carriage, with a complex and bitter expression on his face. When it was time to leave, didn't she want to see me?

After waiting for a moment, there was no sound in the carriage. If it weren't for the messy breathing, one would almost think it was an empty carriage. Ju Rui looked at the carriage and hesitated to speak. When she was about to call out, Li Luo stopped her.
