Chapter 114 Wine
Author: Zhong Lin
Su Xiaomu went to the inn where Lou Qi was staying early the next morning.
Lou Qi had been waiting for her on the first floor very early. Today, he was still wearing the clothes of the Western Regions. He wore a single coat underneath and a tight-fitting round-necked mid-length coat with a double-breasted hem. The hem was in a trumpet style, but it was not that exaggerated.
The edges of the clothes are inlaid with several trimmings of different colors, and there are also gems on the collar, cuffs and belt.
There is a crescent moon sword attached to the belt around his waist, which is a perfect piece of equipment for Westerners.
Today, he is probably more carefully dressed than yesterday. His hair is braided, which makes his face even more handsome.
Su Xiaomu stayed on his face for a while, then followed him upstairs with a smile and a calm expression.
"I brought a lot of things here, but I think what really interests you is the grape wine from the Western Regions."
Lou Qi took out the grape wine and poured himself a glass. The vessel he used to hold the grape wine was a glass cup. After drinking one cup, he shook the glass cup to sway the wine inside, and softly chanted: "Grape wine luminous cup, you Central Plains people."
People just enjoy it more than we do.”
"Perhaps it will look better and taste better in a glass cup."
Su Xiaomu didn't drink his wine. It's true that she came to see the world today, but she was more interested in the money in his pocket than the wine: "Your grape wine smells delicious, but this kind of thing comes from the Western Regions."
It's inconvenient to transport it here. I know how to make wine, and the wine I make seems to taste better than yours. Why don't we discuss a business deal?"
"Ms. Su is very bold."
Lou Qi became more interested in her. He originally thought that she was an ordinary girl with good skills, but he didn't expect that she would give him so many surprises.
"You have never drunk my wine, so why do you think your craftsmanship is better than mine? Even though everyone in the Western Regions knows how to make wine, few are better than my craftsmanship."
Lou Qi tilted his head and looked at the wine shaking in her hand, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Do you have any wine ready for me to try?"
"Of course, but before you drink my wine, I don't know Lou Qi... I don't know how much money Mr. Lou is willing to invest in?"
She made a joke. Although she knew a lot about wine-making skills, she had never made wine here.
But I have to say that this is indeed a very profitable path.
There are always many people who like to drink, and judging from how drunk he is, her craft may be very marketable in the future.
"Half." Lou Qi stretched out his whole palm to discuss business with Su Xiaomu, "If your wine really satisfies me, I will pay you half of the price."
"Okay, let's use your wine as proof. Remember to prepare your money. After I make the wine, you can prepare to invest in it."
The two of them talked happily, and soon it was time to eat.
The food in this inn is very delicious. Lou Qi likes the scenery of Fucheng and the lively places, so he asked the waiter to prepare a table of dishes on the first floor.
The two of them sat together eating, talking and laughing. Yesterday, Su Xiaomu didn't like Lou Qi's aggressive way when he spoke, but today he was attracted by his aura.
There is one word to describe a person like him: relaxed and relaxed.
But what a coincidence, Gu Jingcheng and Zhou Lin also came to have dinner, and they happened to choose this inn.
"Let me tell you, I heard people talking about this inn on the road yesterday, saying that their food is one of the best in Fucheng, so we must try it later, and we won't eat one or two bowls of rice each.
I'm sorry that he has such a good reputation outside."
Zhou Lin enthusiastically put his arm on his brother's shoulders. As soon as they entered, before they had time to sit down, they saw Su Xiaomu talking and laughing with Lou Qi.
Zhou Lin was stunned when he saw this scene. He said to Gu Jingcheng in disbelief: "Jingcheng... isn't this the boss lady?"
Of course Gu Jingcheng also saw Su Xiaomu.
He thought that she was out working on business these days. In order to let her have a good rest yesterday, he did not want her to eat hot and cold food, so he personally cooked to fill her stomach.
Unexpectedly, she would be inseparable from another man today.
Anger burned in his body from bottom to top, and his face turned extremely pale, but he still tried hard to control his anger.
He clenched his fists and walked directly towards their dining table. He stood in front of Lou Qi, looking at Su Xiaomu who looked surprised.
"Didn't you say that you have something important to do today?"
"Your first priority is to accompany others to dinner? If this person is your friend, you should invite me to join him, and we, as a couple, can entertain him well."
After saying this, he ignored Su Xiaomu's changed expression and looked directly at Lou Qi and said, "People from the Western Regions... can now wear swords as they please on the land of our country?"
"Others can't, but I can."
Lou Qi smelled the smell of gunpowder on the Central Plains man when he came over, and heard him say that he and Mrs. Su were husband and wife, so he knew where the smell of gunpowder came from.
It's really interesting. The current scene is probably what people in the Central Plains say: catching an adulterer?
The first word that came to Su Xiaomu's mind was "Hongxing comes out of the wall".
Of course, when she and Gu Jingcheng were only husband and wife, she never had the idea of observing the rules for him, but it was really embarrassing for everyone to meet now.
Even though she knew very well in her heart that there was nothing between the two of them.
Gu Jingcheng sat down directly next to her. He picked up the wine glass in front of Su Xiaomu and said to the floor: "My wife is too drunk, I will drink for her."
"Of course, I'll give you a toast."
Lou Qi looked at Su Xiaomu's slightly embarrassed expression. He just felt that this moment was particularly interesting.
Zhou Lin, who was watching the three of them together, almost had his eyes popping out of his head.
Isn't it? This Madam Su is actually the happy wife in Jingcheng?
It was such a coincidence, how come he never said anything about it?
Then he... He always complained in front of him about his happy wife, and also made a lot of gossip about Mrs. Su in front of him...
Woohoo~ If he had known they had this kind of relationship, he would definitely not talk randomly outside, and he would treat his sister-in-law respectfully.
The meal was too much for the four of them to eat. Su Xiaomu felt that the atmosphere was really indigestive. She lost interest and told them to leave.
As for Zhou Lin, after feeling guilty about Su Xiaomu, he also felt that it was not good for Gu Jingcheng not to tell him about this matter. The two had been brothers for many years, and he had violated the verbal warning against his sister-in-law, and Gu Jingcheng just did it as if he was unaware of it.
He saw Su Xiaomu leaving and followed him.
Lou Qi originally lived in this inn, and now that his guest has left, there is no need for him to continue to be looked down upon by others.
In a blink of an eye, only Gu Jingcheng was left at the table. He looked at the leftovers in front of him with extremely complicated emotions.
Of course he knew that Su Xiaomu was not the kind of person who would mess around with men and women outside. Although she had always had no defense between men and women, she was definitely clean and self-sufficient.
As for Zhou Lin...
