In the carriage on the way back, Lin Jinyan looked at Gu Yichen who was drunk and pouting over, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Bai Zhi: "Miss, you didn't try to persuade me just now. Are you feeling distressed now?"
Lin Jinyan: "His wanton drunkenness from now on will be a luxury, so why should we persuade him?"
Bai Zhi looked at Hong Jiu who was playing with his clothes and smiled and said, "Hong Jiu, it's rare to see you wearing colorful clothes. You look really good."
Lin Jinyan also turned around after hearing this. Hong Jiu's appearance was always heroic. She usually wore plain clothes and had a heroic appearance. Now she was wearing sumi-colored clothes, which made her look like a peach and plum. The two are very cold, like plum blossoms waiting to bloom in the cold snow.
"It does look good. Hong Jiu can wear it more like this in the future."
Hong Jiu felt uncomfortable being stared at by the two men and moved his head towards the window without answering. Lin Jinyan and Bai Zhi looked at each other and smiled.
Chu Chengyi sent the people into the city gate, watched the carriage enter the city and go away, then turned back to Zhuangzi.
The carriage approached the deserted area of the General's Mansion. Song Yi got in like a civet cat. He smelled the smell of alcohol when he entered. He glanced at Gu Yichen, who was sleeping soundly, and sat in the empty space opposite Hong Jiu.
"Why are you so drunk?"
Lin Jinyan: "Young people, it would be nice to get drunk."
Song Yizheng was about to speak, but when he turned around and saw Hong Jiushi, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Miss Hong... today is quite special."
Bai Zhi smiled and said: "It's very pretty, isn't it?"
Hong Jiu was embarrassed by the two men's teasing. He didn't know how to respond, so he deliberately lowered his face and leaned against the car door with his eyes closed to concentrate. His reddish ears made the three of them raise the corners of their mouths.
After arriving at the General's Mansion, Hong Jiu cowered in the carriage and refused to get out of the carriage for fear of being teased again. Lin Jinyan entered the manor and asked the housekeeper to send someone to carry Gu Yichen back to his room.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Jinyan had a conversation with Bai Yiran and took a few people back to the house.
When Gu Yichen woke up, it was already the next morning. He struggled to sit up with his heavy head and squinted at his own room. When he was thinking about how to get back, Bai Yiran came in with Qiu Rong. .
"Are you awake? Does your head hurt?"
"Mom, my head doesn't hurt very much, it's just that I feel dizzy, dull and tight."
Bai Yiran took the medicine handed over by Qiu Rong: "When I came back yesterday, I gave you some sobering medicine, but it could only relieve your headache. It's strange that you don't feel dizzy after drinking so much, so you drank the medicine."
Gu Yichen obediently took it and drank it all in one gulp. When he put down the bowl, his facial features wrinkled together:
"Mom, why is it so bitter? It tastes too bad."
Bai Yiran said angrily: "No, you don't have a long memory. Next time you drink like this outside, I'll give you a hard time."
Gu Yichen: "I won't dare to do it next time. How did I come back...Mom! Where is Yan'er?"
Bai Yiran looked at his panicked son and was not angry at all. He reached out and grabbed Gu Yichen's ears and lectured:
"You still know Yan'er! You took your sister out to play, and you didn't take good care of her. You even got yourself drunk and asked your sister to take you back! How did you become the elder brother? Yan'er is so big, and you have to take care of her in turn. You! What to do if something happens!"
"Ah! Mother, please be gentle! It hurts! I was wrong, mother, I really got carried away yesterday. Plus Yan'er is so smart, I always forget that she is still a child."
"How dare you make excuses? I think you're just itchy."
"Mom, it hurts, it hurts! I don't dare anymore, I really don't dare anymore, Mom, please let go..."
