The most lively thing today is neither the women's family nor His Highness the Crown Prince's, but the half-grown teenagers.
Fang Dalang is thirteen years old this year. He is quite tall and has a handsome face. Cui Dalang is only a few months younger than Fang Dalang. He is slender and has a handsome face. There is also Shen Xu, although he is younger, he is only ten years old this year, but he is the most skilled. Okay, my biological father also has the highest official position. These three people have become the backbone of all young men.
The adults drank and boasted, but the teenagers were not to be outdone and raised their glasses to drink together in a decent manner.
Of course, Feng Shaojun had already anticipated this and specially prepared three kinds of water and wine. The men drank liquor that is unique to the border town, while the women drank wine with a low alcohol content. The young men drank fruit wine with a light taste.
Fang Dalang was not satisfied with the drink. He put his hand against Shen Xu and encouraged, "The fruit wine is bland and tasteless. Let's get a jar of good wine and have a taste."
Shen Xu was brave and nodded without thinking, winking at his cousin Shen Yu. Shen Yu immediately nodded happily and followed Shen Xu. The two brothers quietly slipped into the room where the drinks were kept. .
"Cousin Xu, are we just going back with the wine jar?" Shen Yu asked in a low voice.
Shen Xu rolled his eyes and said, "It will be very eye-catching to take it back like this. If my father and your father see it, they will beat us."
Shen Yu touched the back of his head and muttered: "Your father is never willing to do anything, and I will be the only one who gets beaten."
This is true.
Among all the young men in Jiangjunfang, they were all the masters of climbing trees and rooftops, and it was very common for them to be beaten by their own father. Only Shen Xu had never been beaten since he was a child.
The more Shen Yu talked, the more envious he became: "My fourth uncle has a cold face all day long and looks the most serious. In fact, he has the best temper. He has never been willing to lay a finger on you. My father is not the same. He is always kind to me. If I get a little naughty, I'll be beaten."
Shen Xu puffed up his chest proudly: "Don't worry, I have already thought of a solution."
As he said that, he found an empty jar of fruit wine, moved the jar filled with strong liquor over, and carefully poured the strong liquor into it.
In this way, doesn’t it look like ordinary fruit wine at first glance?
Shen Yu's eyes shone brightly, and he bowed his hands in admiration: "This method is really good, but my cousin's brain works very fast."
Shen Xu grinned triumphantly.
…
"It's strange, those boys are all blushing."
Shen Jia occasionally glanced at his son's seat and immediately saw something was wrong.
The boys drank fruit wine with very low alcohol content. Their faces turned red as they drank, and their voices became louder and louder.
As soon as Fang Peng's eyes wandered, he saw that his own Fang Dalang had stood up, holding a wine glass in his hand and shouting, "Come on, have another drink."
Fang Peng: "..."
Fang Peng was angry and funny, and said to Shen Jia: "These bastards must have secretly changed their drinks. Look at them, their faces are all red after drinking."
Shen Jia grinned and smiled at Shen You with great interest: "Fourth brother, do you remember the first time we two drank?"
After three rounds of drinking, Shen You felt a bit drunk and laughed when he heard this: "Why don't you remember? We were only ten years old that year. We stole the good wine collected by our second uncle and went to the kitchen to find a few dishes. The two of us drank half a bottle of wine each. We were drunk for two days."
"After I sobered up, I was beaten up by my second uncle." Shen You recalled the past with a nostalgic look on his face.
Shen Jia rolled his eyes: "Try your conscience, my father is not willing to beat you, he obviously beat me twice."
Shen You's eyes were full of smiles: "Second uncle said you were doing it for my brother, and it was you who led me astray. So I only beat you. Even my aunt scolded you twice."
The people at the same table laughed when they heard it was interesting.
Zhu Yun was also smiling, his eyes falling on Shen You's shining handsome face.
Although Shen You has "no father and no mother", he has a good uncle, a good aunt, and a good brother, Shen Jia. Therefore, Shen You really doesn't want to recognize his biological father, and he also keeps a distance from his biological brother.
On the other hand, although he was born noble and was born as the grandson of the emperor. He grew up with his cousins, but it was you and me who competed with each other. He had never had such a sincere and warm brotherhood like Shen You and Shen Jia. .
Things are fair in the world.
Zhu Yun took a look at the lively young men and became interested. He got up and came over in person: "What kind of wine did you drink today?"
Fang Dalang's eyes sparkled and he replied loudly: "What I drank was ordinary fruit wine."
Shen Yu then shouted loudly: "If you don't believe it, just look at the wine jar. It's exactly the same as the fruit wine jar we drank before. We didn't secretly exchange spirits."
It is said that there is no three hundred taels of silver here, that's it.
Everyone listened and laughed.
It's normal for a young man of this age to want to try strong liquor. It's okay since he's come here at this age.
Zhu Yun also smiled knowingly, and said to the red-faced Shen Xu and others: "You all pour the wine, and we will have a drink together."
The young men were overjoyed, and they all straightened their chests and drank a glass of wine as proudly as adults.
Gudong!
The younger Shen Yu was the first to get drunk, lying on the table with a blushing face. Shen Xu's eyes were spinning, and he managed to stand up straight.
Zhu Yun looked amused and distressed, and whispered: "You guys drank a lot today, don't drink anymore."
Shen Xu nodded, but before he could open his mouth, he couldn't hold it in any longer. He let out a sigh and fell on the table like Shen Yu.
Shen Jia laughed happily.
Shen You felt sorry for his son and nephew, so he immediately got up and came over, picking one up with one hand. Thanks to his height and strength, the two and a half young men were able to carry it, and carried it all the way to the nearest wing.
Brothers Shen Xu and Shen Yu were lying on the bed together, with their heads leaning against each other, their little faces flushed.
Shen You carefully covered them with quilts and called his soldiers to guard the collapse.
Turning his head, a familiar face came into view.
"Why is Your Highness here?" Shen You asked casually.
Zhu Yun responded with a smile: "I saw that they both drank a lot and were a little worried, so I came over to take a look."
Probably because the afternoon sun was particularly warm, Shen You's face softened a lot: "They are still young, so they can't drink strong alcohol. They are so drunk today, at least they will have to sleep for a day or two."
After a pause, he asked: "Has His Highness the Grand Sun ever drank?"
Zhu Yun smiled and said: "Dong'er also secretly drank wine and was taught a lesson by his mother and concubine. Now he doesn't dare to do it anymore."
Shen You raised his eyebrows: "His Royal Highness Taisun is three years older than Xu'er, so he will be thirteen this year! It's okay to drink occasionally."
His Highness the Crown Prince did not feel ashamed and responded confidently: "There is nothing we can do about it. The Crown Princess is the biggest in the East Palace, so we have to listen to the Crown Princess."
