"Brother Lian, come on, let's do it again! Hey, how about it? Is this wine good? Is it much stronger than what we usually eat?"
After talking about business, Xue Pan consciously became closer to Jia Lian. In addition, it was rare to be able to drink in front of my mother and sister, so I naturally drank glass after glass of Jia Lian wine.
For a while, he just drank wine and found it boring, so he asked Jia Lian for a fistfight.
Jia Lian did not refuse.
It's just that Jia Lian usually pays attention to his cultivation and behavior, not to mention that in front of Baochai, he naturally drinks a glass of wine and behaves calmly to deal with Xue Pan.
But Xue Pan didn't care about that much. He had a dissolute temperament. After a few glasses of strong wine, his face turned red and his neck became thicker. His voice was so loud that even the outer courtyard heard it.
Aunt Xue and her daughter were just keeping company, and they were happy to see Xue Pan and Jia Lian drinking and talking about friendship. In addition to Aunt Xue, she often advised Xue Pan not to drink too much. After that, they just sat quietly, occasionally ate some food, and looked at the two cousins. Have a drink.
But looking at it, Aunt Xue felt even worse.
When there is no comparison, Xue Pan is fine, but he is just like a playboy from an aristocratic family.
But compared with Jia Lian, especially sitting and drinking in front of him, his naked senses are too obvious.
Jia Lian was dressed in a slim robe and had a face as beautiful as a crown jewel. Even when he was eating wine, he would gently pick up the cup and sip it slowly. His expression was clear from beginning to end, and his behavior was measured. He was truly a model of the appearance of a noble son from a noble family.
Looking at his son Xue Pan, he is still a teenager, chubby and has a lot of flesh on his face. If he drinks too much, his whole face will turn red. It is really even more exaggerated than that of the red-faced singer on the stage.
Not to mention, after drinking wine, he talks nonsense all over the world, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, whether it is vulgar or not...
If it weren't for the sake of her son and Jia Lian's presence, Aunt Xue would have wanted to leave this evil obstacle.
In fact, it is a bit hard to swallow.
As a result, Aunt Xue simply didn't look at her silly son, and only turned her head to look at Jia Lian. When Jia Lian happened to look over, she smiled and told him to eat more vegetables.
Seeing that Jia Lian had to deal with Xue Pan, Aunt Xue called her maid, a pretty girl of 17 or 18 years old named "Tong Xi" to help Jia Lian peel shrimps and other meat. Even though Jia Lian said that she had eaten enough, he did not let the maid leave. Instead, he asked the maid to stand between her and Jia Lian, and asked her to serve Jia Lian for meals.
"Mom, you are so partial..."
Aunt Xue showed great care to Jia Lian, as if Jia Lian was her biological son, which made Xue Pan, who saw this scene drunkenly, feel a little disgusted and murmured.
I don't really care. He is not very surprised that Aunt Xue cares about him so much. He feels that Aunt Xue is very nagging, which makes Jia Lian feel uncomfortable without even realizing it!
Perhaps the wine in Xue Pan's collection was indeed of unusual strength. The two of them shared a small jar, and as soon as it reached the bottom, Xue Pan was completely drunk.
"Why is it gone? Waiter, why don't you get your uncle a drink?"
Xue Pan stood up with the wine jar. Before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground and the wine jar also fell to the ground. It broke with a bang, but Xue Pan was not awakened.
The maids and servants rushed forward to check on Xue Pan, and Aunt Xue and her daughter also stood up in shock. After confirming that Xue Pan was just drunk, he felt relieved and asked the ladies to send Xue Pan to rest.
Seeing this, Jia Lian was ready to stand up and leave.
"That being the case, I also..."
Who would have thought that after Aunt Xue watched Xue Pan leave, she looked back to see Jia Lian wanting to leave. She hurriedly stepped forward to sit down and said with a smile: "Don't be ridiculous. Your brother Pan is an alcoholic. He went to bed when he was drunk. You don't have to Ignore him.
I see that you haven't eaten anything either. These dishes today are specially prepared for you. Please try them again. "
With that said, he called to the little maid: "I'm so happy, why don't you pick out a fat crab and peel it for the Marquis."
Seeing the situation, Jia Lian was indeed in no hurry to leave.
Just because after Xue Pan left, the whole world felt quiet. Moreover, there are Aunt Xue, mother and daughter, accompanying her, one on the left and one on the right. This situation is very rare.
Of course, there is no need to mention these two women, Baochai. If there is a national beauty like peony, it must be the treasure hairpin.
Even Aunt Xue is a mature and pretty woman who is gentle, plump and approachable.
Speaking of which, although Aunt Xue is Mrs. Wang's sister, she takes better care of herself than Mrs. Wang.
If Mrs. Wang is just holding the young woman by the tail, she probably only has a sense of accomplishment in conquering the noble lady for the young man, but has little desire to pursue beauty.
Then Aunt Xue is completely different. She is basically like Youshi. Regardless of her identity, she still maintains an excellent taste in terms of figure and appearance. She doesn't know how to maintain it on daily basis.
Well, maybe it's not considered maintenance. Maybe Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang are slightly different in age.
After all, Mrs. Wang's daughter, Yuanchun, is at least twenty-three or four this year. Not to mention, Mrs. Wang's grandson Jia Lan is also in the second or third grade of elementary school.
Therefore, Mrs. Wang is at least forty years old.
But Aunt Xue is different. Aunt Xue's eldest son, Xue Pan, seems to be only sixteen or seventeen years old this year. Based on this calculation, Aunt Xue couldn't tell, she was only thirty-three-four, thirty-four-five.
Unfortunately, he couldn't ask exactly how old he was, so he had no way of knowing.
All in all, if it is as he guessed, at this age, in future generations, he might not even have his first marriage.
She is not too old, and she is a pampered super lady who controls millions of dollars in wealth. Her appearance is naturally a bit extra charming.
"Master Marquis, please have a meal."
Qiaobi dismembered the crabs one by one, divided the crab meat and crab roe into portions, and presented them to Jia Lian.
Jia Lian stuttered, then glanced at the maid and nodded slightly.
This admiring look immediately made Qiao Bi, who had been serving Jia Lian for a long time, her heart stirred by the warm male breath all over Jia Lian's body, her cheeks turned red and hot, and even the hand holding the wine glass for Jia Lian felt a little... Shivering slightly.
Seeing her like this, Jia Lian didn't want her to lose her composure and be punished, so he took the initiative to hold the wine glass. I don’t know why my reaction was slow after drinking some wine. When I took the wine glass, I touched the other person’s bare hand.
This suddenly made Qiaobi's cheeks redder. In order not to let Aunt Xue see her, she could only pretend to be drunk and lower her head.
Jia Lian took this opportunity to take a look at this girl.
Speaking of which, he has been to the Xue family several times. He is the only maid in the Xue family that he has seen, and he feels that a Ying'er next to Baochai can make his index finger move.
I have never paid much attention to other maids.
At this time, when I took a closer look, I realized that this one called Tongxi was also quite pretty in color.
Seventeen or eighteen years old is originally the most beautiful age for a woman, with a youthful body, immature and pure.
Not sure if it was because of the slave Master Xiao, Jia Lian felt for a moment that there was a bit of Aunt Xue in Tongxi. It’s just about words and deeds, it’s mainly about the figure. At such a young age, with a bulging front and back, she actually has the confidence to compete with Aunt Xue!
This is really rare.
Although Tong Xi concealed it well, Aunt Xue, who had been paying attention to Jia Lian, still saw her shyness.
In fact, not to mention a careless little girl, even she would have been moved by Jia Lian's heroic appearance and charm if she hadn't had the self-cultivation and fortitude she had developed over the years, as well as the restraint of her elders.
This is a man who can seduce little girls' random thoughts just by sitting next to him!
So she asked Tong Xi to step aside with a smile. She scooped up a bowl of cool wine and handed it to Jia Lian.
"Don't drink too much strong liquor. Drinking too much will harm your health. Take a look at this. Hahaha, your sister Baochai brewed this herself. I feel good after eating it. You should try it too."
As early as after Baochai left the table, Jia Lian smelled a wine aroma that was different from ordinary rice wine and rice wine.
The taste was sweet and fragrant. He also saw that Aunt Xue and her daughter were drinking it. He had already wanted to try it, but he couldn't leave Xue Pan alone, so he didn't speak.
When I heard that it was brewed by Baochai himself, I had to taste it.
So he took the jade bowl from Aunt Xue's hand, took a sip with the spoon, and then took a big sip from the bowl.
Looking down at Aunt Xue, mother and daughter were looking at her, one with a calm expression and the other with a warm smile. Jia Lian naturally knew how to cheer her up.
“Very good! It’s extremely mellow and fragrant in the throat, and when it goes down into the stomach, it has a hint of wine and an endless aftertaste.
Speaking of which, during the holidays in previous years, Feng Yatou at home would also let people brew some sweet wine for the old lady and others at home to drink. I also tasted it, but what they brewed was not as good as this.
It can be seen that Sister Baochai is really ingenious and has a good heart. No matter what she does, she can do it better than ten thousand people.
Well, Sister Baochai, would you like to give me another bowl? "
Sweet wine, commonly known as mash, is a drink with very low alcohol content.
Because it can only be regarded as a drink, even Jia Mu and others do not drink it as wine, but drink rice wine with a stronger flavor.
As for what Xue Pan and I drank just now, the alcohol content was close to distilled wine. Women generally cannot drink this kind of wine.
In fact, Jia Lian doesn't like to drink strong alcoholic beverages because he feels uncomfortable after drinking them. However, this kind of drink can only be enjoyed after drinking it, so it can be called fine wine.
Besides, he was not complimenting Baochai. He really felt that the Xue family's sweet wine was really sweet and mellow and could not be compared with other brands.
Could it be that the wine brewed by the fairy really has a buff bonus?
Seeing Jia Lian look back at her, Baochai also gave a rare smile, called the maid, and personally filled Jia Lian with another bowl.
Everyone likes to be praised, especially those who are extraordinary. That kind of praise is particularly pleasant.
If Jia Lian was looking out for her dignity and paid it off with a casual compliment, but he had already drank so much wine and went all the way to ask for it from her, which shows that he really liked it.
