Ruan Ji's family was poor, but he was addicted to alcohol. He usually drank some wine on credit in this small hotel, and the wine he drank was always cheap and low-quality wine.

This was because the store had a good relationship with him, so he owed it to him on credit. Now Ruan Ji wanted to drink a jar of Nuerhong worth more than 10,000 yuan. How dare the proprietress give it to him? That's why he said this.

Ruan Ji didn't blush at all. He squinted and said, "I am now working for the Taiwei Mansion. Are you afraid that I won't be able to repay you for the wine?"

It was after the Sima clan came to power that Ruan Ji became an infantry captain. During the Zhengshi period, Ruan Ji became an official for the first time and served as the governor of the Taiwei Mansion. Jiang Ji, who was the Taiwei at the time, heard about Ruan Ji's talent and ordered

He was recruited as a vassal. Although Ruan Ji was reluctant to serve as an official and even wrote a resignation form, Jiang Ji refused. Ruan Ji had no choice but to accept the order, so his current official position is that of Taiwei Mansion.

The landlady sneered: "Tsk tsk, I thought you were such a big official. A 200-stone sesame mung bean official can support himself, so that's pretty good. If you want to drink Nuerhong today, fine, just take cash."

Come on, I don’t have any cash, let alone your official of 200 dan, even if the official of 2000 dan comes, I won’t give him any credit.”

Ruan Ji was already slightly drunk at this moment and scolded with raised eyebrows: "An official with two hundred stone is also an official. Why do you look down on an official with two hundred stone?"

The landlady didn't flinch, and sneered: "I sell wine for a penny. I can get credit if I want to. No one can force me to do it if I don't want to. Even if the three gongs and nine ministers come, I may not buy his account."

Ruan Ji shouted: "I have decided to drink my daughter's red today. You can get it even if you don't!"

The landlady responded tit-for-tat: "The wine belongs to me, whoever I want can drink it, and whoever I don't want to drink it can't!"

Cao Liang took a look and saw that these two people were really a pair of bad-tempered people, tit for tat and refusing to give in to each other. One wanted to drink on credit, while the other refused to give. They were deadlocked.

Cao Liang smiled and said: "You two, please calm down. Isn't it just a wedding? I'll just invite you. Don't argue anymore."

Ruan Ji and the landlady turned to look at Cao Liang at the same time, saying in unison: "None of your business!"

Cao Liang was stunned. Isn't this because you guys are arguing endlessly? Just after I tried to persuade him, you actually shifted the focus of the attack. What's this?

Ruan Ji also seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to speak to Cao Liang like this, and hurriedly said: "Brother Cao is here for the first time, why do you have the nerve to ask you to spend money? I can still afford this daughter."

The landlady crossed her arms and said with a sneer: "If you can afford it, you should pay for it. If you want to save face, you will suffer the consequences!"

Ruan Ji said leisurely: "Drunkard, what you said is wrong. Face, that is a man's dignity. A man without face cannot be called a man. Whether he wants face to death or to save face, he is still a man.

It’s the nature of the person, and it doesn’t matter much whether you suffer or not. Whether you suffer or not, it’s best to just let things take their own course.”

The landlady sneered: "Even if you just talk nonsense today and don't come up with money, you don't want to make your daughter famous."

Just as the two of them continued to argue, the fat shop owner came up with his two daughters in his arms, placed them on the table, and said politely: "Sir, please use it with ease."

The landlady got angry and yelled at her husband: "Who gave you the courage to bring the wine? And how dare you bring two jars of wine?"

Even though the landlady is so beautiful, when she gets angry, her willow eyebrows stand straight up and her apricot eyes wide open, she looks like a crazy Hedong lion.

The shop owner said aggrievedly: "This guest ordered it, how dare I not take it?"

Just as the two of them were arguing, Cao Liang had already turned around and asked the shop owner to bring two jars of daughter's red wine. Although a jar of daughter's red wine was said to be worth tens of thousands of dollars, to Cao Liang, it was just a drop in the bucket, so he ordered it casually.

They opened two altars to settle the dispute between the two people.

The two of them refused to give in to each other, and if they kept arguing like this, lunch time would almost be over.

The landlady could argue with her husband, she could argue with Ruan Ji, but no matter what, she couldn't argue with Cao Liang. She pouted angrily, left the table, and returned to the counter where she was selling wine.

forward.

Ruan Ji's face was full of excitement. Today, the boss lady finally gave up. If it were another day, I'm afraid this farce would have continued endlessly. I don't know how long this farce would go on.

Cao Liang opened the mud seal on the wine jar, and the aroma of wine immediately hit his nostrils. Although this Nuerhong is still turbid rice wine, after fifteen years of fermentation and preservation, this Nuerhong has a particularly mellow and strong aroma, and the wine has not yet matured.

Once it enters the throat, it is already intoxicating.

Cao Liang poured a glass for Ruan Jiman, and also poured a glass for himself. He picked up the wine and said to Ruan Ji, "Today I borrow flowers to offer to Buddha. This glass of wine is dedicated to Brother Ruan!"

Ruan Ji smelled the aroma of the wine, moved his index finger, and responded to Cao Liang vaguely. He immediately picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. After that, he kept smashing his mouth, as if he still had some unfinished meaning.

Cao Liang didn't care. Ruan Ji was the best madman in the world. Only Ji Kang from the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest could be compared with Liu Ling. Since he was a madman, he naturally had his unruly side. Compared with Liu Ling who ran around drunk and naked.

Generally speaking, Ruan Ji's performance art can be considered relatively restrained.

"Since Brother Ruan likes it, let's have a few more drinks."

At this moment, Ruan Ji suddenly put down his wine glass and said with a vigilant expression: "No reward for no merit. Since you invited me to drink such a fine wine, you must have some intention. Tell me, what is your intention?"

Cao Liang immediately couldn't laugh or cry. Dealing with these madmen and strangers, you really have to worry about it. Didn't you insist on drinking this wine just now? You were still arguing with the boss's wife. How come in the blink of an eye, it turned into "I want it"

Bribing you, I have other plans, what can I do for you?

"Brother Ruan, we are just two girls who are popular. Today is the first time we meet, so I'm going to invite you. Actually, don't get me wrong. I really have no plans for you, really!"

Ruan Ji glanced sideways at him and said lukewarmly: "To show your courtesy for nothing, to be a traitor or a thief. If you say you have no intention, then you have no intention. There are so many so-called gentlemen in the world, and they all have the same face as you."

, the same tone, but in fact, it’s full of conspiracy and calculation, making it difficult for people to guard against it!”

Cao Liang smiled bitterly. It seemed that there was no point in trying to reason with him. Ruan Ji's wild and uninhibited nature was world-famous. Although he had not yet reached the peak of his fame, the character in his bones was already destined.

.

To be honest, although Cao Liang wanted to say hello to him, he would never turn him into a confidant. After all, dealing with Ruan Ji like this is really tiring. Although he is talented, it is difficult for me to use him. He is like chicken ribs and tasteless.
