When Bai Gu gathered his thoughts and walked out of the ward, the eyes of Brother Peng and others immediately came over.
Brother Peng glanced at Bai Gu up and down and frowned. Then he walked over and patted Bai Gu on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Xiaoxiao will be fine."
It just blocked the sight of A Guang and the others.
Bai Gu smiled reluctantly, then rubbed his face with his hands and forced a smile.
Bai Gu walked around Brother Peng and said to A Guang and the others: "Let's go and eat!"
"Okay!" As soon as Aguang and others shouted, Brother Peng glared at them.
Did you forget that this is a first-class ward? Need to be quiet!
Bai Gu quickly took Brother Peng, A Guang and the others away.
If someone catches him, he will definitely get scolded. We can't afford to embarrass this person.
Walking on the street, Aguang and others had never been to the city and had never seen this bustling scene. They were all full of curiosity and surprise.
Aguang wants to eat baked buns all of a sudden, Xiaolu wants to watch Sugar Man, Hongmao can’t walk while watching the juggling...
Just like this, everyone came to Yaojiu Pavilion.
Since I said I wanted to treat everyone to a drink, I definitely wanted to come to the tavern.
Besides, Yaojiu Pavilion is one of the largest taverns in Yunshui City, so the drinks are definitely not bad.
"Hey, you're so impressive! Brother Xiaobai is going to spend a lot of money today!" A Guang grinned with a big mouth.
Brother Peng frowned slightly, "Xiao Bai, forget it here, just find a tavern and have a few sips, brothers, don't choose."
Although Aguang and others still had smiles on their faces, they still felt a little disappointed.
Although they really don't choose, as long as they have wine. But there is a big tavern right in front of us. It would be a shame not to go in and have a drink.
I also thought I could brag to others in the future.
Bai Gu shook his head, "Brother Peng, I can discuss other matters with you, but on this matter, you have to listen to me! I will make arrangements."
"It's my treat today, don't worry about saving me money." Bai Gu added.
Brother Peng had no choice but to nod his head and follow Bai Gu's wishes.
But at the same time, Brother Peng glared at Aguang and others.
If you dare to be too presumptuous, I will deal with you when you get back!
Aguang and others quickly expressed receipt.
Bai Gu took the lead and led everyone into the Yaojiu Pavilion, "Waiter, find us a place to drink!"
A young man ran over quickly, counted Bai Gu and his party, and then, as if because he was not tall enough, he stood on tiptoes and pointed in the direction of the northwest corner, "Sir, do you think there is some space over there, is that okay?"
Bai Gu followed the guidance and looked over. There were several empty tables near the window, which was pretty good. "It's over there."
"Okay." The young man walked over with Bai Gu and others.
After they all left, the young man took out a pen and paper and asked, "Excuse me, our guests, what would you like to drink?"
"Ordinary earth-burning will do." Brother Peng said dullly.
He just glanced at the price list on the counter. Those drinks are really not cheap.
An ordinary pot of Erguotou costs ten copper coins. What a money grab!
"Hey, waiter, I'm just joking. I don't want earth-shake, I want that..." Bai Gu turned his head and looked at the drinks on the counter, then turned back to ask Aguang and others, "Brothers, what do you like? What to drink?”
A Guang was just about to speak when he was glared back by Brother Peng. He had to force a smile and said: "We can do it, we can do it."
Seeing that Bai Gu couldn't get the answer, he ordered casually: "First, five jars of bamboo leaves, two pounds of beef with soy sauce, a plate of peanuts, a plate of patted cucumbers, and a plate of braised meat. Remember, every table here has For this configuration, take these first and wait until they are not enough.”
The waiter took down the order and hurried to prepare the dishes.
Brother Peng grabbed Bai Gu and said eagerly, "These are very expensive!"
He just took a look and saw that one jar of green bamboo leaves cost one tael of silver, and five jars cost five taels of silver!
A pound of soy sauce beef costs two taels of silver, and a plate of braised beef costs three taels of silver.
Peanuts and cucumbers are better, but they still cost ten copper coins a plate.
Just what Bai Gu ordered just now costs at least fifty taels of silver!
If the money is exchanged into the tavern, wouldn't it be possible to have a few more drinks?
What's more, where did Bai Gu get so much money?
He was afraid that Bai Gu would not be able to pay back the debt and would lose face.
Regarding Brother Peng's reaction, Bai Gu knew what he was thinking. He patted Brother Peng's hand and said softly: "Brother Peng, have you forgotten that I just sold the scales of the Tuoshe ancient snake yesterday? I have money now, so it's not a problem to treat guests to a drink."
He now has thirty thousand taels of gold, which is three million taels of silver. It's just a meal of wine, and it only costs a hundred taels of silver to survive. It's a trivial matter.
It's okay to have a luxurious meal once in a while.
"Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this! It's not good to develop the bad habit of spending money indiscriminately!" Brother Peng said with a look of resentment.
What’s wrong with having money? Can you be willful if you have money? You can’t save some flowers!
When the money is gone and the spendthrift character is left, what will you do?
You might do something because of money!
It doesn’t matter if the impact is small, but if it ruins your life from now on, it will be irreversible!
Brother Peng doesn't want to see Bai Gu like that.
Bai Gu didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said: "Brother Peng, don't worry, I'm sensible. I will save some of my money. I also need to buy supplements for Xiaoxiao."
"It's good to know." Brother Peng nodded, but he still couldn't help feeling worried about the drink money.
This is the money Bai Gu earned with his life!
The ancient Tuase snake is a vicious snake, and it is targeting a narrow escape from death. If Bai Gu hadn't run so fast and encountered a catastrophe, I'm afraid he would have had to go up the mountain to collect Bai Gu's body now, right?
There are even no bones left!
Just as he was thinking about it, Brother Peng suddenly felt something being pushed towards him by Bai Gu. He took a closer look and saw three silver notes worth one hundred taels.
Three hundred taels of silver!
Brother Peng quickly pushed back and lowered his voice, "What are you doing! Take it back! Don't you know that wealth should not be exposed?"
"Brother Peng, take it!" Bai Gu pushed it over.
"I can't take it! Put it away quickly!" Brother Peng pushed it back again.
"Brother Peng, listen to me. You can take these three hundred taels of silver first. They will definitely come to persuade me to drink later, and I can't shirk it, right? If I get drunk, I will have to trouble you to pay. Yes." Bai Gu chuckled, "Also, don't forget to buy rice and date cakes for Grandpa Liu when you go back. Go to the pastry shop in the south of the city, it's delicious."
Brother Peng thought for a while before accepting the banknote.
So that's it.
"The food and wine are on the table!" the young man howled, and several waiters took turns bringing jars of wine and plates of food.
Seeing that the food and wine were ready, the young man smiled and said, "Please be patient, sir. If you need anything, call me."
After saying this, the young man withdrew.
Seeing that everyone was still moving their chopsticks, Bai Gu asked doubtfully: "Eat, drink, what are you waiting for? Aren't you hungry?"
Aguang and others looked at Brother Peng.
Brother Peng said with a serious face: "What do you want me to do? I should eat and drink, but there is no writing on my face."
Aguang and others instantly burst into laughter and said in unison: "Thank you Brother Xiaobai, thank you Brother Peng!"
Immediately, everyone started to move like hungry wolves.
Brother Peng was speechless.
Can't these guys be a little bit officious? It's okay to do this in Lingding Lane, but now can't you be more restrained outside?
Bai Gu watched it with great interest.
This is the only way to be lively and real!
Isn’t it just a matter of having a good time while drinking and eating? There are so many constraints, how can we still call it eating and drinking?
That's taking off your pants and farting!
As expected, A Guang and the others had only drank a few bowls before they came over one by one with wine bowls to offer Bai Gu's wine.
"Nonsense! How old is Xiaobai? What are you drinking?" Brother Peng stared at them.
Bai Gu tugged at the corner of Brother Peng's clothes and said softly: "Brother Peng, I'm sixteen."
"Sixteen...What happened to Sixteen? I told you, you are still young! You are just young! If you don't believe me, ask Mr. Liu!"
"In Grandpa Liu's eyes, you are just a child, let alone me." Bai Gu's mouth flattened.
Aguang suddenly said: "Brother Peng, I remember you said that you started drinking and fighting when you were fourteen years old. Why can't you stop it when you get to Xiaobai?"
Being exposed, Brother Peng couldn't help but blush.
He couldn't help but angrily scolded A Guang, "Shut up!" He turned around and warned Bai Gu, "Today, you can drink, but don't drink too much. No one here knows your drinking capacity, so control it and don't get really drunk. Yes, do you hear me?"
Bai Gu nodded.
Brother Peng sighed secretly.
Upon seeing this, A Guang and others shouted loudly and immediately gathered around, toasting Bai Gu one by one.
"Young people just want to drink! Wine is something that hides stories. Look at the people in those books, don't they always drink when they travel around the world?"
Brother Peng ate a piece of beef with soy sauce and couldn't help but have a headache.
Bai Gu took a sip of wine and immediately grinned.
Why does this bamboo leaf green taste sweet when you first drink it, but then it starts to taste bitter and a little spicy? A bit unpleasant.
Not sure, take a few more sips.
Then Bai Gu served one bowl after another.
When he was drunk, Bai Gu suddenly seemed to see a familiar figure.
He rubbed his eyes and took a closer look, eh, it's the drunkard!
He quickly called the young man and asked the drunkard what he had ordered.
"The guest officer ordered two pots of spring snow brew and a plate of peanuts." The young man answered truthfully.
Bai Gu thought for a while, "Let's do this. Give him another pound of soy sauce beef and a pot of Qingquan wine, and then all the money for the food and drinks for his table will be paid to me."
"Okay!" The young man immediately ran to prepare food.
Brother Peng frowned, "Xiaobai, what are you doing? Why is it so inexplicable..."
"Hey, Brother Peng, you don't know, I met an old guy in the city before. He is very nice and often helps me. I only met Mr. Wu because he helped take me there. Where is that guy over there? He's a friend of the old guy. The old guy left here for something a few days ago. I asked him to hand over to me the wooden sign that allows me to see Mr. Wu. Otherwise, Xiaoxiao might not be able to go to Mr. Wu for treatment. You say, Did he do me a big favor, should I treat him to a drink?”
"So that's it." Brother Peng nodded, but his eyes kept looking at the drunkard.
On the drunkard's side, the food and wine Bai Gu ordered for him were already on the table. The drunkard was a little confused and asked about the origin of the food and wine.
The young man answered truthfully.
The drunkard nodded and glanced at Bai Gu, who was surrounded by a group of strong men trying to persuade him to drink. His face was still and expressionless.
Then he shifted his gaze and looked at Brother Peng aside, and caught the latter's gaze.
The surrounding air seemed to be stagnant for a moment.
But just for a moment, the two of them lost sight of each other and drank and ate in silence.
It was as if nothing had happened just now.
Bai Gu was still drunk in the end, lying on the table unable to get up, and mumbling something unknown.
Brother Peng glanced at Aguang and others helplessly.
You should try to control it. You don't know how much you drink, do you?
Really are!
Now I will be scolded by Mr. Liu when I go back.
Brother Peng had to pay for the drink first.
Depend on! One hundred and thirty-six taels of silver!
So expensive!
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let Xiaobai order anything else.
After paying the money distressedly, Brother Peng returned to the table, picked up Bai Gu, and left with A Guang and others.
I also have to buy rice and date cakes.
But Yunshuicheng is so big, it's their first time here, and Bai Gu is still drunk.
They don’t know the way!
There was no way, a group of old men could only run around like headless flies, asking for directions.
Finally, after walking for almost two hours, which originally took more than half an hour, I found the pastry shop Bai Gu mentioned.
Then they ran around again as before, asking for directions, and walked for more than two hours before leaving the city.
Brother Peng couldn't help but scolded Aguang and others again.
If Xiaobai hadn't been drunk, why would we have gone through so many wrongdoings?
You will still have to be scolded by Mr. Liu after you go back. Aren't you looking for trouble on your own?
Brother Peng was in a complicated mood, but he didn't dare to deviate from his movements while carrying Bai Gu.
He looked up at the sky where only the dim sunset remained, and couldn't help but sigh.
It was evening when we returned to Lingding Alley.
He came home late, drank, and got Bai Gu drunk.
If Old Liu Tou doesn't get angry, he can go to the Buddhist temple over the hill to offer incense.
This is the Bodhisattva’s manifestation and blessing!
But the Bodhisattva is made of clay, and Old Liu Tou is not.
Anyway, a scolding is inevitable.
Fortunately, I didn't forget to buy rice date cake. This should be able to offset some of Lao Liutou's anger.
Maybe.
Bai Gu on his back was still mumbling something, but Brother Peng couldn't hear it clearly.
I could only vaguely understand a sentence or two.
"Grandma... Xiaoxiao... Ah Yue... Brother Peng... let's... let's go eat delicious food... live in a big house... no need... no need to live a hard life anymore... I... I'm making a living... …”
