After having enough wine and food, Xu Ling had already drawn up his plan to get rich in Erfang Town.
To be honest, no woman likes drinking parties. Unless she is in a high position, the women at the banquet table are like foils or even some kind of victims while drinking and talking.
Xu Ling participated in a lot of wine parties in his previous life. From the disgust at the beginning to the numbness later, he pushed and pushed when he had the ability. The performances of those men could not be more fake, so that they said the first sentence , he can guess the final purpose.
But now, he is also a man, and he has become the most annoying person in the past.
Only then did he realize that chatting and doing things like this was really fast and convenient.
For example, when he wanted to ask Sun Baoyao to do something, he only gave him money, which seemed like the two were too different.
If we treat guests to a meal, brag and spank, and the relationship between the two of them heats up sharply, and you call me brother and I am brother, it seems to be a little more contented. Your father is my father, can I still not care about my father's affairs? ?
Xu Ling still didn't like it, but he was very good at acting. I even got some relief from my depression.
When he and Sun Baoyao came out of the restaurant half drunk, Xu Ling held his hand with sincerity.
"Brother, if you hadn't been busy with official duties, I would have really wanted to have another drink with you. In the past, I heard those sour scholars saying that we met so late, but I always didn't understand. But now that I see Brother Sun, I understand What does it mean to meet so late?"
Sun Baoyao was extremely moved. Does he have such a great personality?
However, my head was so drunk that I couldn't understand it. I could only cooperate and move: "Brother, your father-in-law's business is my business. Don't worry, I will pick an easy job for him when you get back. Wait for you to come back from your business trip." , let’s have wine again!”
Xu Ling was very happy: "Brother Sun, next time we come back for a drink, we must not come back until we are drunk!"
The two danced for a long time, but the clerk saw that Sun Baoyao was very drunk and wanted to take him back to rest. If the chief clerk came to patrol, it would be a disaster for them.
Before leaving, Sun Baoyao did not forget to remind Xu Ling, who wanted to take his father-in-law to buy clothes, and he only needed to return to the camp before dark.
Xu Ling reluctantly sent him away.
When they were far away, Gu Litian supported Xu Ling and muttered: "If you can't drink, drink less. What does it look like?"
Xu Ling suddenly stood up straight and smiled. He didn't look drunk at all: "Dad, I'm not drunk. I only drank three or two glasses. How can I be drunk? The wine in this restaurant is not as good as in our village." The alcohol content is high."
Gu Litian looked at Xu Ling in surprise before he realized, "Are you pretending to be drunk?"
Then I thought again, Xu Ling, a bastard like him, really changed his mind and was just talking about it. How dishonest!
Xu Ling didn't expect that his acting out would make his image in the eyes of his father-in-law even more despicable, so he immediately took Gu Litian to a cloth store to buy some thick clothes.
Gu Litian refused to take it. He knew that Xu Ling gave Sun Baoyao two taels of silver and spent several hundred coins on the meal. His heart ached and bled.
He was extremely harsh: "I don't need you to come to me! Just a month, isn't it? I'm not old yet!"
The old man was more stubborn than a donkey. Xu Ling insisted on buying him clothes. He was so angry that he wanted to hit Xu Ling. He had clothes at home. When Gu Daliang came to see him, he would take the dirty clothes home to wash. Where could he spend money to buy them?
Xu Ling couldn't resist him, so he had to give up and take him around the town again to avoid going back early. Sun Baoyao hadn't sobered up yet and had not given him a job in exchange for his hard work.
Gu Litian also disagreed and insisted on going back to work.
Xu Ling was in a stalemate with him for a while, and found that Gu Litian seemed uncomfortable whenever he stayed with him, and everything he said was thorny.
I had no choice but to buy him some steamed buns and flatbreads and send him back.
Xu Ling handed the things to him, "Dad, I have to go out in two days. You will probably have gone home when I come back. I want to build a new house. You can help me find some good wood then."
Gu Litian said stiffly: "I understand, you should go back quickly, the road is difficult to walk after dark."
Xu Ling smiled, sent this stubborn father-in-law away, and went home.
Besides, as soon as Gu Litian returned, he was called over. It turned out that Sun Baoyao had already told him to give him a new job. What kind of job was he, boiling tea and delivering water to the small officials who supervised the people's work.
I don’t know how much easier it is than digging in the soil.
Gu Litian was stunned. Wasn't Sun Baoyao drunk? Why did it get better so quickly?
When he saw Sun Baoyao sitting there drinking tea from a distance, he couldn't help but have some enlightenment.
Good guy! Neither of them are good people!
Xu Ling was indeed not drunk. The business in the Jubao Hall was not very good, and the drinks and meals were not expensive. Accordingly, there was an unknown amount of water mixed in the wine.
He was humming a little song and walking on the country road, thinking about something in his mind. Now that he has returned home and people are watching, he is going out to make money again. He cannot delay making money. He is waiting to build a new house at home, which will be built soon. It's winter, and he really doesn't want to go out on business in winter.
At home, my wife and children are heating up the Kang, cooking mutton around the stove with some cabbage leaves, and drinking some rice wine. Isn’t it delicious?
fragrant! It smells so good!
So for this little bit of happiness, Xu Ling decided to go out and make money the day after tomorrow.
When he returned home, Mrs. Xu was sitting at the foot of the wall making clothes. When Gu You saw him coming back, he quickly came up to him and asked about the situation. He smelled the smell of alcohol on his body and moved a little slower.
Said: "Are you drinking outside?"
Xu Ling chuckled, "I didn't drink much. I don't smell of alcohol at all. I'm not drunk."
Gu Tao glanced at him, he said the same thing yesterday! As a result, I was extremely drunk...
Xu An still couldn't sit still and ran away on the pretext of going to work in the fields. Mrs. Xu waited for her eldest son to come back and continued to nag for a long time.
"She is already thirteen, and she will be seeing someone in two years. With such a wild temperament, what kind of good family can like her?"
Xu Ling disagreed. Xu An would only be 15 years old in two years, and his sister did not need to get married so early.
After just a few words to fool his own mother, Xu Ling went to help work in the fields.
For two days in a row, Xu Ling helped Gu Daliang work in the fields. When he was about to leave early on the third day, the Gu family had harvested more than half of the six acres of land, leaving only one or two remote fields with wheat left. It’s not done yet, so I’ll have to wait a few more days.
The family sent Xu Ling to the entrance of the village. The separation was always uncomfortable. Mrs. Xu kept crying and kept nagging that the winter clothes she had made for him were not yet ready.
Xu Ling comforted her, "I can wear it when I come back next time."
Da Ya slept with him for two nights, and Xu Ling told her weird stories and amused her. She seemed to be getting along with her biological father again.
At this moment, she seemed to know that Xu Ling was leaving again, so she hugged his neck and sobbed softly, "Daddy."
Xu Ling felt so uncomfortable in his heart. In Gentle Township and the Tomb of Heroes, if possible, who would want to leave their hometown and go out on their own?
Gu Tao took Da Ya away. She looked gloomy and pursed her lips, not happy. Xu Ling had already arranged things for her. Now he came closer and reminded her, "Put the money away. If there is anything missing at home, go and buy it."
Gu You responded softly, "Okay."
He still looked a little unhappy on his face.
Xu Ling couldn't understand what she was thinking, so he stretched out his hand to hold her and scratched the palm of her hand, like a cat scratching.
He whispered greenly: "Then wait for me to come back."
Gu You suddenly smiled.
