When Zhou Jiufeng saw the city lord looking like he was enjoying himself, he couldn't help but walked up out of curiosity.
"Is this wine that delicious?" Zhou Jiufeng poured himself a glass and took a sip.
She smacked it in her mouth for a moment, looked at the city lord strangely, and after swallowing it, said: "No, you have never seen the world?"
"In this inn, besides cannons and lights, this wine is the best."
Zhou Jiufeng put down his wine glass and said, "I still have a jar of Shaoxing 1987 bottles at my place. When I get to the city, I invite you to see what good wine is."
The city lord nodded and took another sip calmly, thinking that if he had a chance, he would give up drinking for a year and then try this wine again.
Seeing that the city lord was still drinking, Zhou Jiufeng felt a little pity for the sword spirit, "The city lord is too, she is too stingy. You have been with her for so many years, and even if she has good wine, she is not willing to let you have a taste."
The city lord stiffened.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, being angry will hurt your body. I am two people now." She secretly comforted herself for a long time, and then took another sip of wine to suppress her anger.
She still had some sense of propriety, and stipulated that she could only drink half a cup, so that she would not be harmful to her children, and secondly, she would not be smelled of alcohol.
So the top priority now is to taste this wine properly.
When Zhou Jiufeng saw that the city lord was only focused on drinking, he gave her a look of pity and asked, "Where are the others? I'm going to find someone to ask, something happened at Xunweizhai."
The city lord took another sip of wine and asked strangely: "What happened?"
"A door appeared out of thin air in the back kitchen, and it couldn't be opened no matter how hard I opened it. It's a very evil door." Zhou Jiufeng said, "I suspect someone is trying to use magic to steal it."
"Oh", the city lord continued to drink, acting like a sword spirit who didn't know what to do.
"They all went out, only..."
The city lord was lying and wanted to delay for a moment to savor the glass of wine, but the kitchen door curtain opened.
Guai Zai, who was busy having lunch with Hu Muyuan in the kitchen, came out after hearing someone talking.
She saw Zhou Jiufeng first. It was difficult for Zhou Jiufeng's increasingly burly figure not to be ignored.
"Sister Feng is here," Guai Zai greeted, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I have gained a lot of weight..."
Speaking of which, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the city lord holding a wine glass and was startled.
"Oh, my aunt." It's strange that she has been in this world for a long time and has learned all the things Aunt Ma does.
She took three steps at a time, ran to the city lord, grabbed the wine glass in her hand, "How can you drink?"
The city lord swallowed the wine in his mouth and smiled awkwardly but elegantly at Guaizai, "You will definitely keep it a secret, right?"
"What's wrong? If you dare to drink secretly, I will tell the shopkeeper when he comes back." Qiao Zai said very seriously.
Zhou Jiufeng defended Sword Spirit, "Hey, it's not that big of a deal, is it? It's just a glass of wine for you, and it's not even good wine."
She stood in front of the city lord, snatched the wine glass from Guaizai's hand, and put it in the city lord's hand, "You can drink as much as you want, I paid for the wine."
City Lord Qiu Shui rolled his eyes and said to Guai Zai: "You saw it, she asked me to drink it, don't blame me."
Wei Zai looked at Zhou Jiufeng inexplicably, "Are you crazy? She is pregnant. This will be known for the rest of your life. Don't want this fat body of yours."
"If you don't want it, don't want it. I think I'm too fat...wait a minute!"
Zhou Jiufeng's eyes suddenly widened and his mouth opened slightly, "You, what did you say? Pregnant, pregnant!"
She suddenly turned around and watched blankly as the city lord picked up the wine glass and toasted to her.
"Yes, hasn't this news reached Yangzhou a long time ago?" Guaizai grabbed the wine glass and said, "Auntie, why are you still drinking?"
The city lord smacked his lips, feeling a little regretful, "She handed this to me."
Zhou Jiufeng shivered and came back to his senses instantly, "That, that, City Lord! Why didn't you tell me when you came back? I..."
The city lord walked to his seat and sat down. "When will I come back? Do I need to tell you?"
"I didn't mean that, I meant that you are finally back, and I want you to lose weight." Zhou Jiufeng said.
"Pfft", Wei Zai was happy, and the city lord also smiled a little, "I think your clothes are getting thinner, right?"
Zhou Jiufeng glanced at her clothes and said, "This is a rebound. You also know that after a person loses weight and rebounds, he will become fatter."
"I don't know, I only know that I'm very stingy. What should I do if I don't want more wages?" The city lord sighed, "How about you guard the city gate? That way the wages will be less."
Zhou Jiufeng breathed a sigh of relief. She had been framed by Yu Sheng to guard the city gate many times and she didn't care this time.
"By the way, remember, you still owe me a jar of Shaoxing wine, 1937." The city lord said.
Zhou Jiufeng nodded, that's right, at least she wasn't thrown into a pig pen to be a pig herder and breed pigs.
But for the rest, Zhou Jiufeng would never agree to it.
"You asked me to drink this wine just now, right?" The city lord stared at her.
Zhou Jiufeng hurriedly shook his head, "No, sir, we don't do this to deceive people. I have said this before, but it's just a sword inviting the spirit to drink."
The city lord blinked, "But you said it to me, and you also said that you would treat me to a good drink and to see the world."
"No, no, no, those don't count. By the way, you poured and drank the cup by yourself." Zhou Jiufeng hurriedly cleared the air.
This issue is very important. If she takes the blame, she will definitely be punished for the rest of her life.
The city lord lowered his voice: "You took the blame. Not only will I forgive your disrespect, I will also give you a promotion and a salary increase when you return."
"No, absolutely not, shopkeeper Yu will tear me to pieces." Although Zhou Jiufeng is fat, he is not stupid, and he shakes his head like a rattle.
She would never be able to withstand this thunder.
Now the city lord is worried about Yu Sheng, which shows how powerful Shopkeeper Yu is in this matter.
However, it would not be a good idea to offend the city lord. Zhou Jiufeng gave her an idea, "You can do this. When he talks about you, just say you have a stomachache. It will definitely work."
The city lord suddenly realized, why had she not thought of such a good idea?
She is now holding the emperor's hand to command the princes, and is not afraid of anything.
"Yes, your idea is good." The city lord nodded.
Wei Zai noticed that they kept muttering and warned: "Sister Feng, don't follow her in making any bad ideas. Drinking is not good for the children."
Zhou Jiufeng spoke righteously, "Don't worry, I'm watching her and I will never let her get within three steps of the wine."
"If I violate this oath, I, I..." Zhou Jiufeng looked at her body and felt cruel, "I will gain another hundred pounds!"
"Isn't this too cruel?" Guaizai was surprised and went back to the kitchen to get busy.
The city lord also looked at Zhou Jiufeng, no wonder he was so obviously fat. It turned out that fatness was measured in units of "one hundred kilograms".
"During the time I was away, you were too busy, and you actually got so fat." The city lord said.
Zhou Jiufeng nodded, "It's a bit leisurely. Ever since Bingyi was killed by a sword, no big monster dared to cause trouble."
The people in the witch academy are also honest.
The only ones causing trouble are little monsters without eyes, which are easy to deal with.
The city lord nodded, "In that case, go back and prepare, and lead the team to Zhonghuang tomorrow."
Now is the time for Zhonghuang to hire people. If nothing else, looking for Ye Zigao and the others in such a big Hanshan City would require a lot of people.
"Going to Zhonghuang?" Zhou Jiufeng became happy, "Okay, don't worry, I'll go back and prepare."
Zhou Jiufeng was tired of staying in Yangzhou all day and wanted to go outside for a long time.
"Bring some smart people with you. It's enough for Jinyiwei to make a fortune." The city lord said.
The same goes for these two people. After crossing a section of Yanyu Bridge, they disappeared.
Hei Niu is not here at the moment, so most likely she is quietly looking for Ye Zigao.
