Three hundred and seventy second chapter confrontation two
No matter what the reason was, in short, Gu Xinian and Meng Zijun didn't like each other. Although they were polite on the surface, they secretly made up their mind to get the other party drunk and make the other party look embarrassed.
Zheng Junyan watched helplessly as the two of them began to perform the drinking order. He was originally worried that Meng Zijun would not be able to stop him, but he did not expect that Meng Zijun was also a master of the drinking order. He and Gu Xinian were about four or six in victory.
Gu Xinian was quite surprised. It was not surprising at all that he was good at drinking. In his previous life, he had been in the court for eight years, and basically had social activities every day. As time went by, he naturally developed his drinking capacity, and he became more and more familiar with various drinking rituals. He is well versed in it. But this Meng Zijun, at such a young age, is actually proficient in drinking, which is really unexpected. He had underestimated the enemy before...
He thought this, but Meng Zijun was even more upset. Men are aggressive and competitive animals, and this is true. Before, Shen Changan just drank after losing the drinking order, but when it was his turn, the taste was not so good. It feels better. Although the difference between victory and defeat is not big, it is enough to make him annoyed.
However, even if the drinking order was slightly inferior, Gu Xinian would not have an easy time today. He remembered clearly that Gu Xinian had drunk no less than half a catty of wine before. But he didn't drink much, so he wouldn't lose the ability to drink. Gu Xinian!
After drinking one pot and another, Zheng Junyan finally couldn't hold it anymore and persuaded with a smile: "Cousin Gu, cousin Meng, you two drank too much today. If you drink any more, you will be hurt." My body is in trouble. How about we stop here today?"
The two of them are competing, but who can hear it?
"Don't worry." Gu Xinian said with a faint smile: "I can drink two more bottles, no problem. However, if Cousin Meng can't bear it, then he can drink it another day."
It's better to fight than to fight! What's more, Meng Zijun didn't intend to stop here. He smiled and said not to be outdone: "I have no problem at all."
Gu Xinian smiled happily and said: "Although Cousin Meng is young, his arrogance is really admirable. When we drink with a close friend, a thousand cups are too little. We will never get home if we are not drunk today."
Zheng Junyan, who was completely ignored, smiled helplessly. He began to wonder secretly in his heart, should he ask the kitchen to cook some hangover soup now?
Shen Changan was already drunk, but now he saw the two of them drinking so lively. He also became excited and grinned: "I will also drink with you two." It doesn't matter who loses or wins, as long as someone is holding the cup, he will follow. Let’s hold a glass together. The result is that Shen Changan will soon be nowhere to be seen on the wine table...
No matter how displeased Zheng Junyan was, he couldn't bear to watch him crawl under the table and pull him several times to no avail. He had no choice but to order the servant to help Shen Changan go to the guest room to rest first.
As for Gu Xinian and Meng Zijun...with a leisurely and contented smile and a confident raised eyebrow, it seems that they will never give up without a fight.
Zheng Junyan had the idea of persuading him at first, but after seeing the posture of the two of them, he simply said nothing. He then whispered to the maid to clean the guest room.
Facts have proved that Zheng Junyan’s move was very wise.
After half an hour of fighting, Gu Xinian, who had almost never been drunk, finally became drunk. However, judging from his appearance, his handsome face was just slightly red, and even his eyes looked calm.
Meng Zijun's head was groggy, and seeing Gu Xinian's appearance, he felt very strong in his heart. He had to hold on to the end no matter what.
I don’t know how much and how long they drank, but in the end, the two of them fell on the table almost at the same time.
Zheng Junyan breathed a long sigh of relief and shouted: "Here, help the two of them to the guest room to rest." The prepared guest room finally came in use!
The three people who had been waiting in the side hall were getting a little impatient.
Ye Qingning complained impatiently: "It's been an hour, why haven't they finished eating yet?" If you want to come and ask questions, hurry up! I've been waiting here, and I feel so upset. It's really torturous. .
"I guess they must have all drunk too much." Ye Qinglan said with certainty. With Gu Xinian's temperament, it would be strange not to get Shen Changan drunk and let out a bad breath today.
Gu Xiyu said worriedly: "Is the eldest brother drunk?"
Ye Qinglan shrugged casually: "Don't worry, he won't get drunk no matter who gets drunk. You should worry about Shen Chang'an!" I have known Gu Xinian for so long, I have only seen him playing tricks on others, but I have never seen him before. He had suffered a loss at the wine table. Therefore, Ye Qinglan was not worried about him at all.
Unfortunately, Ye Qinglan was wrong this time.
Zheng Junyan walked in with a wry smile. Before the three of them could ask, he said, "Don't guess, the three of them are all drunk today!"
What? Ye Qinglan was startled: "Is cousin Gu drunk too?" No! Gu Xinian was actually drunk too...
Zheng Junyan nodded and sighed: "No matter how I tried to persuade them, they refused to listen. Cousin Meng was also very drunk. The three of them were helped to the guest room to rest. It will be good if they can sober up in the evening."
Gu Xiyu stood up without thinking: "I want to go see big brother."
Zheng Junyan looked at Gu Xiyu, his eyes became gentler and his voice was gentler than usual: "Don't worry, I have sent someone to take care of my cousin. He is drunk and is lying on the bed to rest. No. What went wrong."
Gu Xiyu was extremely insistent: "No, I have to see it with my own eyes before I can rest assured."
Ye Qinglan suddenly smiled and said: "Cousin Xiyu, I will go with you too!" Gu Xiyu hummed.
Zheng Junyan was startled and subconsciously felt that something was wrong. But he couldn't tell what was wrong at the moment. He watched helplessly as the two of them walked away together.
Seeing him staring at Gu Xiyu's figure, Ye Qingning felt sour in her heart: "If you are worried, just go with him and take a look."
Zheng Junyan didn't notice the sourness in Ye Qingning's words, and murmured to himself: "Weird, really weird."
Ye Qingning rolled her eyes at him unhappily: "What's so strange? My cousin is drunk and cousin Xiyu is worried. Isn't it normal to go and have a look?"
"Then why did the tenth sister follow?" Zheng Junyan pointed out the problem pointedly: "There is no need to worry about brother and sister, but she and her cousin should avoid suspicion! Even if the cousin is drunk, she, a girl who has not left the court, will It’s not appropriate to visit!”
Ye Qingning was choked for a moment, and in a hurry, he gave a random reason: "She was worried about cousin Xiyu, so she went with her. It's not like you don't know cousin Xiyu's temperament. How can you do it without anyone around?"
Zheng Junyan reluctantly accepted this reason: "What you said makes sense. However, I still have to remind the tenth sister in the future. Girls should always be cautious in their words and deeds to avoid gossip."
Ye Qingning responded perfunctorily. But he was thinking secretly in his heart that in a year or two, you will naturally know what is going on... However, it is better to keep it a secret for now! What happened between Gu Xinian and Ye Qinglan, The fewer people who know, the better.
Zheng Junyan obviously had a lot of feelings today, but there were some words that he could never say in front of Ye Qingning. He could only sigh sadly and suppress all his thoughts in his heart.
Ye Qingning held it in for a long time, but couldn't help it any longer, and said with a smile: "Okay, why are you sighing? Is it because of the matter between cousin Xiyu and Shen Chang'an?"
Zheng Junyan said nothing.
"You saw it with your own eyes today. Cousin Xiyu does have a crush on Shen Chang'an. Otherwise, she wouldn't have deliberately pushed away the maid next to her, let alone talked to him by the pond." Ye Qingning's tone was calm, but there was a hint of sourness. But his intention was faintly revealed: "No matter how unconvinced you are, you have to accept this fact."
Zheng Junyan tightened his lips and reluctantly admitted: "I am indeed a little unconvinced. It's not good to know what kind of person Xiyu likes, so why did she choose that vulgar martial artist?" If Gu Xiyu likes someone better than him. He recognized him as excellent. But this Shen Changan was unpleasant to look at from head to toe. What did she like about him?
Ye Qingning said calmly: "What's wrong with Wu Fu? Who said Wu Fu is vulgar? I think Shen Chang'an is quite good. He has an upright personality and doesn't have so many twists and turns. He likes cousin Xiyu wholeheartedly. If it were different. I, I would also like such a man."
The last sentence clearly caused trouble for Zheng Junyan.
No matter how good-tempered Zheng Junyan was, he couldn't resist such verbal stimulation, and his face turned red: "Ye Qingning, what do you mean by this?"
In the few months since they got married, this was the first time he called her by her full name!
Ye Qingning felt angry and annoyed, and sneered: "Thank you for asking me, I want to ask you, what do you mean? Who cousin Xiyu likes to be with is her business. Why are you so nervous? ?Why do you dislike Shen Changan? Could it be that you are still thinking about her? "
Zheng Junyan's face was red and white, and he looked a bit angry: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Ye Qingning has never been a good-tempered person. After getting married, he has been trying hard to control his temper, but nature is easy to change. When he gets angry, he can't care about anything, and he keeps saying harsh words in succession: "Whether I'm talking nonsense, you know very well in your heart! Unfortunately, it's useless for you to worry about it anymore. You have already married me, and you will never have the chance to marry cousin Xiyu in this life. Besides, even if you want to marry, you have to Only if someone is willing to marry you..."
Every harsh word was like a knife stabbing into Zheng Junyan's heart.
Zheng Junyan's expression changed again and again, and he finally managed to say: "You can do whatever you want." After saying this, he walked away.
Ye Qingning had the upper hand, but there was no joy of victory. There was something stuck in her heart, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Tears rolled in her eyes, but they did not fall. She swallowed them back stubbornly. (To be continued.) .If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
