"Nonsense, the wine here is definitely the best in the capital!" As Zhu Yi spoke, he walked into the tavern. However, just as he walked in, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, "Wait, what did you just call me?"
"Pig head!" Xia Zhi said lazily.
Zhu Yi's face was immediately filled with black lines, "How did I become a pig head?"
"Oh, I originally wanted to call you Old Man Zhu, but I felt that three words was too troublesome, so I shortened it to pig head."
Zhu Yi was on the verge of collapse. "I say, you can call me Old Man Zhu, or even call me a rotten old man. Can you not call me a pig head?"
"No, I think the name pig head is very good. If you're not convinced, then fight me. If you can beat me, then I won't call you pig head." Xia Zhi said lazily.
This time, Zhu Yi had the urge to bang his head against the wall. Why did he meet such an unreasonable little fellow?
"Mr. Zhu, you're here …" Ah? "Mr. Zhu, you, your leg …" A voice was heard, but halfway through, it turned into a cry of alarm.
"Old Du, my leg is healed. I came here to drink and celebrate. Give me the best jar of red wine. Is that alright?" Zhu Yi followed up.
"No problem, absolutely no problem. Mr. Zhu, please take a seat first. I'll be right there!" This was a man in his fifties. He had a medium build and looked very ordinary. However, he was very excited at the moment. After saying that, he ran into the house.
"Come, little girl, sit, sit. The good wine will be here soon." Zhu Yi called out to Mei'er. As for the summer, Zhu Yi decided to deal with this brat less, lest he was angered to death by this brat.
"How can this place not have a signboard?" Mei'er asked curiously after sitting down.
"Good wine doesn't need a signboard." Zhu Yi replied, "Little girl, let me tell you, this place has the most authentic red wine. I guarantee that you've never drunk it before."
As he was speaking, Old Du walked over with a jar of wine in his arms, "Mr. Zhu, this is the oldest red wine I have here. It's really thirty years old. You and your friends can slowly drink it. I'll go get some dishes to go with the wine."
"Alright, Old Du, sorry to trouble you!" Zhu Yi took the jar and opened it. Immediately, the fragrance of the wine filled the air.
"Hey, this wine smells really good!" Xia Zhi reached out his hand and grabbed the wine jar. He poured a bowl for himself and then poured another bowl for Mei Er. Then, he picked up the wine bowl and gulped it down in one gulp. "It's really delicious. Mei Er's wife, you should drink a little too!"
"Pour some for me, pour some for me, I'll try!" Zhu Yi urged.
Xia Chen actually poured a little for Zhu Yi, then poured another bowl for himself and drank it all in one gulp.
"Why did you only pour me such a little?" Zhu Yi, on the other hand, was extremely depressed. "This isn't even enough to fill the bottom of the bowl!"
"You asked me to pour you a little, so of course I'll only pour you a little." Xia Chen said confidently, then poured himself another bowl. At the same time, he said to Mei Er, "Mei Er my wife, try drinking it and see if you like it."
Mei'er actually picked up the bowl and took a sip. Then, she suddenly spat it out. "Oh, I don't think it tastes good."
"Oh, then I'm relieved." Xia Zhi first finished the wine in his bowl in one gulp, then picked up the wine jar, opened his mouth, and poured the wine into his mouth.
Mei Er and Zhu Yi were dumbstruck.
It took almost a minute for the two of them to react.
"Hey, drink slowly, don't get drunk!" Mei Er was still concerned about the summer, afraid that he would drink too much.
"Summer, leave some for me, leave some for me. I haven't drunk it yet!" Zhu Yi was naturally concerned about the wine.
"Alright, I'll leave some for you." Xia Zhi finally put down the wine jar and stuffed it into Zhu Yi's hand. At the same time, he burped, "Oh, it tastes good …"
Zhu Yi picked up the wine jar and poured it into his bowl. Then, he really poured out a little bit, about a few dozen drops. Sure enough, he only left a little bit for him in the summer.
For a moment, Zhu Yi felt like crying. His beloved daughter Hong, which he had loved for thirty years, was gone just like that!
He picked up the bowl and poured less than a mouthful of wine into his mouth. Then, he wanted to cry even more. This wine was really good. It was even more mellow and fragrant than what he had drunk before, but he could no longer drink it.
"Lass, let's discuss something, okay?" Zhu Yi suddenly saw the bowl of wine in front of Mei Er. His eyes lit up and he became a little excited.
However, just as he said this, Xia Xia suddenly reached out and snatched the bowl of wine in front of Mei Er, drinking it all in one gulp.
At this time, Mei Er asked, "Uncle Zhu, what is it?"
The light in Zhu Yi's eyes had already disappeared. He shook his head weakly, "It's fine. Remember to remind me not to drink with your wine barrel boyfriend in the future."
"Hey, pig head, I'm not Mei Er's wife's boyfriend. I'm her husband." Xia Zhi said with dissatisfaction.
Zhu Yi glared at Xia Zhi angrily. He even had the urge to fight with Xia Zhi. This brat was too much of a bully!
"Mr. Zhu, there are a few dishes here. You guys eat first. If it's not enough, I'll go get more." At this moment, Old Du walked over.
"Old Du, I don't know if there are enough dishes, but there isn't enough wine. Do you still have 30 years of Nu Hong?" Zhu Yi asked weakly. He felt that it was impossible for Old Du to have such good wine. Wine of this age was always less than one jar.
Old Du subconsciously looked at the jar of Nu Hong and quickly discovered that the wine was already empty. He was stunned for a moment before saying apologetically, "Mr. Zhu, I'm sorry. The thirty years are really gone, but there are still twenty years left. Do you want it, Mr. Zhu?"
"Yes, of course!" Zhu Yi's spirits rose, and he hurriedly stood up, "Old Du, I'll go get the wine with you!"
This time, Zhu Yi decided to drink his fill in the wine cellar before coming out. However, when he arrived at the wine cellar, something that made him collapse happened. Old Du told him that the wine had disappeared.
"That brat must have stolen it!" This thought popped up in Zhu Yi's mind, and he immediately went back outside. As he expected, he saw a few empty wine jars on the table.
As for Xia Zhi, he was currently lying on top of Mei Er, looking drunk.
"Little girl, can we discuss something?" Zhu Yi began to discuss something with Mei Er again.
"Uncle Zhu, what's the matter now?" Mei Er was a little strange.
"Can you let me beat this brat up while he's drunk?" Zhu Yi looked angrily at Xia Zhi, who was lying in Mei Er's embrace. He really wanted to beat Xia Zhi up.
"Uncle Zhu, actually, I also want to beat him up a little." Mei Er glanced at Xia Zhi, then stood up with him in her arms. "However, he's drunk now, so I should take him back to rest."
"I knew you wouldn't bear to hit him. Forget it, forget it. Fortunately, this brat left me a lot of ten years worth of Nu Hong. Now, no one will fight with me for it." Zhu Yi was a little depressed.
"Uncle Zhu, I originally had something I wanted to tell you, but it's not very convenient right now. How about this, Uncle Zhu, find a time in the next few days and make a trip to the hidden group. I'll talk to you then." After being messed up like this in the summer, Mei'er was unable to talk to Zhu Yi anymore.
"Alright, I will go." Zhu Yi agreed readily, "You should take this brat away quickly, in case he wakes up and fights with me for the wine."
Mei Er nodded and didn't say anything else. She picked up Xia Zhi and walked out of the tavern. Then, she returned to Zhu Yi's courtyard as fast as she could. Her car was still parked there.
After putting Xia Zhi in the back seat of the car, she was about to get up when she suddenly realized that she couldn't get up. Xia Zhi's hands were tightly wrapped around her waist.
It was normal for a drunk person to be like this. However, when she tried to pull Xia Xia's hand away, she found that she couldn't. Instead, her body suddenly became unstable and she fell on Xia Xia's body. She started to feel that something was wrong.
Especially when she found out that there was no smell of alcohol in this fellow's mouth, she was even more certain that this pervert was pretending to be drunk!
"You lied to me again!" Mei Er was furious and punched Xia Zhi's body, "Let me go!"
"Mei Er's wife, I'm not lying to you!" Seeing that he couldn't pretend anymore, he opened his eyes with an innocent look, "I was really drunk just now, but I woke up faster."
"Really?" Mei Er was still a little doubtful.
"Of course it's true. Actually, I didn't expect that I would get drunk. In the past, I didn't get drunk no matter how much I drank. Today, I might have drunk a little too quickly, so I got drunk for a while, but I woke up very quickly. So, Mei Er's wife, I really didn't lie to you!" Xia Zhi vowed.
"Alright, I'll believe you once." Mei Er felt that this explanation was reasonable, so she didn't pursue the matter any further. "Let's go eat now. I heard that drinking on an empty stomach is easy to get drunk. That's probably why you got drunk just now."
"Alright, let's go eat." Xia Zhi agreed immediately. Finally, Zhu Yi was no longer at the side as a light bulb.
Mei Er didn't say anything else and drove away with Xia Zhi. Then, she found a nice looking restaurant by the side of the road, found a booth, and started their lunch.
Halfway through lunch, Xia Zhi's cell phone rang.
He took the phone and looked at it. He found that it was Shi Pengfei calling, so he answered the phone, "Hello, what's the matter?"
"Divine Doctor Xia, there's been some progress on what we told you last time. They asked Xiao Bei to put the information in a supermarket storage box and then send it to them with the barcode of the storage box." Shi Pengfei's voice was a little low, "What should we do now?"
"I see. I'll arrange it first. I'll call you later." After saying that, Xia Zhi hung up the phone. He wasn't very concerned about this matter right now. In his opinion, it was more important to accompany Mei Er for lunch.
