MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 21 to play (plus more)
Chapter 21 Going to play (plus more)
Although the Huguogong Mansion has a large family, Zhou Gu's father and uncles all died in battle at a young age, so the population is actually not many for the huge Huguogong Mansion. To make a fortune by military exploits, there must be sacrifices in blood. His grandfather was seriously injured and could no longer go to the battlefield. His father and uncle were not so lucky, but fortunately they all got married before they died in the battle, and they all left heirs, so the generation of grandchildren seems to have a larger population. In addition, now that the world is prosperous and peaceful, there is no need to fight. Although his three older brothers are all in the army, they are all doing well. He has an elder brother who is a direct relative, Zhou Wei, the eldest son of Duke Protector's Mansion, and an elder sister who is a direct relative, and the rest are cousins left by his uncles, not many in number. Including him, there are nine grandchildren in the entire Duke Protector's Mansion.
This Jiangning prefect’s mansion is a small mansion, which is one-tenth of the land area of the Duke Huguo’s mansion, but it can be regarded as raising a large family with a population similar to that of the Duke Huguo’s mansion.
In Duke Huguo's mansion, except for New Year's Day, men and women have different seats, but this Jiangning prefect's mansion obviously does not have such rules, and treats them equally.
After everyone saw the ceremony, Zhou Gu sat next to the prefect Su, and Su Rong sat next to him.
The six aunts and six young ladies were all surprised, obviously they didn't expect the young master of the Duke Huguo's mansion to be so good-looking. However, they are all very well-behaved people, and they don't have the intrigues and tricks of other mansions, and they don't act like monsters. This is due to the fact that the eldest lady manages the family well, and treats everyone equally. Therefore, due to the circumstances, they didn't glance at Zhou Gu except after seeing Zhou Gu's amazed and shocked expression at first, which made Zhou Gu feel more at ease.
Prefect Su asked Zhou Gu, "Nephew, how much do you drink?"
"Fair."
"How much is Shang Ke?"
Zhou Gu wanted to say "I won't get drunk after a thousand glasses of wine", but felt that this was too young and frivolous, so he could only say: "A jug of wine is fine."
Prefect Su laughed loudly, "Then I understand, you have at least a jug of wine."
Zhou Gu: "..."
Prefect Su ordered, "Come here, take..."
"Father, we agreed that we will go out to play in the afternoon." Su Rong quickly interrupted Prefect Su, why did she allow Zhou Gu to drink too much? She hasn't gone out to play for more than half a month, so she must not be wasted today.
"Uh..." Prefect Su paused, looking at the two of them, "You agreed to go out to play in the afternoon?"
Zhou Gu didn't speak.
Su Rong nodded, "Yes, since he came to Jiangning, he hasn't played outside the city yet. I decided to take him to Phoenix Mountain."
"Go climb the mountain, the mountain is steep." Prefect Su was worried that Su Rong would reveal his secrets.
The eldest lady coughed, knowing that Su Rong was holding back, if she was not allowed to go out, maybe she would sneak out by herself, and suggested: "It's better to go on a cruise."
"That's fine too. Anyway, we're going out to play. Father, don't drink too much today. If not, you won't get drunk until night?" Su Rong spoke in a soft and gentle tone, without looking tough at all.
Several aunts and young ladies looked at her one after another, thinking in their hearts that the dress was pretty decent. If in the past, she said "no" calmly and without emotion, this matter would really be unacceptable, even if it was to Su Taishou or Da Furen, not to mention them, except Su Xingze, who was an exception.
"Ahem, okay! Then let's have two pots, my nephew and I, one pot for each of us, and have a drink." Prefect Su compromised.
Su Rong smiled softly, "Thank you, father."
Su Taishou felt relieved, and when someone brought wine, he said to Zhou Gu: "This is a special Jiangning drunk flower drink, my nephew, come and taste this wine. This is my favorite wine."
Zhou Gu nodded, "Thank you uncle."
Two jugs of wine, for those who have a capacity for alcohol, are nothing more than light drinks, so this meal was very peaceful.
After dinner, Su Rong couldn't wait to go out to play, but she still asked Zhou Gu patiently, "Do you want to take a break?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "I don't have the habit of taking a nap."
"It happens that I don't have either." Su Rong was happy, "Then let's go?"
Zhou Gu nodded hesitantly.
So, Su Rong greeted Prefect Su and Da Furen, and took Zhou Gu away.
After the two left, the eldest lady was a little worried, "This girl, I don't know if she can hold on and pretend until she reaches the end of her life. She won't just pretend for half a day before she reveals her secrets?"
"Let's show it!" Su Taishou had a different opinion, "Although Zhou Gu is good, and the Huguo Duke's Mansion is good, we can't cheat the marriage! Besides, we can't cheat for a lifetime."
The eldest lady glared at Prefect Su, "You can think about it."
"I think Zhou Gu is a good kid. The Duke Huguo's mansion teaches him better than we do." Prefect Su thought that Zhou Gu was forced to stay in the prefect's mansion. At that time, his face was very ugly, but he could bear it and didn't turn his face. He has good self-cultivation. When he was his age, he didn't have this kind of self-cultivation. Of course, he was lucky not to meet such bad elders as him and his wife.
The eldest lady also thought of the two of them going out of their way to bully other children, and she laughed, "I'm getting old, this matter can't be spread, Zhou Gu probably won't tell the outside world, right?"
"I've done everything, so just say it!" Su Taishou always had a thicker face, "Anyway, the old Huguogong's letter is on his head, so don't be afraid."
The lady thinks about it too, Lao Guogong made it clear in the letter, telling them not to treat Zhou Gu as an outsider, and get along with each other more, he is waiting for good news, and he is also waiting to drink tea from his granddaughter-in-law. Zhou Gu can't live at home, how can he get along with each other more?
So, Da Furen only hoped that Su Rong would understand something by herself, and only hoped that what she had told her in the past few days would be effective.
She then said to the aunts and young ladies who did not leave: "Zhou Gu lived at home until Xiaoqi and Jian. During this time, no matter who you are, don't cause trouble for me. You must know that Xiaoqi has climbed to this high branch, and you will have a good future. If you ruin Xiaoqi's marriage and offend the Duke Protector, no one in our family will be well."
Everyone nodded in unison.
The eldest lady was afraid that someone would be confused, so she said harshly again and again: "No matter how Auntie Qi climbed into Xiaoqi's marriage, since she was able to climb up and get the old man's attention, it means that it is not easy. Zhou Gu looks very good, right? But don't let anyone do such a nasty thing as stealing from your sister. Otherwise, I don't need to tell you what will happen. After all, you are not ignorant women. You have all read the books in our mansion. , Everyone has been taught by Mr. Even if they came here without a penny at the beginning, they are now literate, shameless, and understand the truth of what to do and what not to do. Don’t eat our rice for nothing and develop a confused heart.”
After she finished speaking, she praised again: "You guys did a good job today, treat him like the seventh son-in-law, don't go astray."
All the aunts expressed their opinions one after another, "Madam, don't worry, my concubine won't, we are all waiting to get the little Qiguang."
All the ladies expressed their sincerity, "Mother, we all understand. We have been taught by you since we were young, and we all understand this principle. We are a family, and we cannot separate our hearts."
"Yes, mother, we don't dare to rob the seventh sister." Su Li, who is two months younger than Su Rong, has a dull expression, "She is vicious, and I hope that I will never provoke her for the rest of my life."
As soon as she said this, everyone was amused.
Si Yiniang echoed: "That's right, who dares to provoke her, not to mention that since she was young, nothing dared to **** her, let alone such a big living person?"
The eldest lady also felt that she was too tense, and smiled, "I should rest assured of you, but this week Gu, it looks great. I'm afraid you will be confused."
"Let's take a look, Xiaoqi should take a closer look, shall we? You see her pretentious appearance, I think she likes it in her heart." Miss Wu thanked Bumin, "My daughter is not as talented as Xiaoqi, and people can change a thousand times. In the future, my mother will promise me a more ordinary husband-in-law. I will grow up to be like Young Master Zhou, messing around with women. In addition to actively robbing women, there are probably many women in the capital staring at him, which is really uneasy."
Madam: "..."
She was speechless, "You have something to offer! You are good-looking, you can enjoy your daily life, and you can eat, and you are happy to serve him. Are there few ugly men who are monsters? There are not many. They are tired anyway, why don't you feel tired comfortably?"
Miss Wu felt ashamed after thinking about it, "What the mother said is that the daughter has been educated, so it's because of your eyes!"
You can be cute and cute, and I can be cute and cute, and there is nothing wrong with each other~ This is today’s plus, see you tomorrow ヾ^_^
