Chapter 2681 Convince people with virtue
As soon as Xia Jian got angry, Chen Erniu Licheng became honest. Xia Sanhu drove him out of the gate of Chen Erniu's house, but Wang Youcai was standing there, not leaving or speaking.
Xia Jian knew in his heart that Wang Youcai must still be holding a sense of anger in his heart. If the anger in this guy couldn't burst out, the matter would not be over.
"What's wrong? Don't want to go to bed tonight? I think you have been running for a day, so you should be tired!"
Xia Jian approached Wang Youcai and whispered to Wang Youcai.
Wang Youcai's eyes moved and he smiled coldly, "I'm holding my breath in my heart. Do you think I can sleep?"
"Then you tell me! How can I sleep? As long as your requirements are reasonable, I will definitely agree to you."
Xia Jian said sincerely.
Wang Youcai then smiled faintly and said, "You drink with me. After drinking, I will go to bed. This matter tonight has passed for your sake."
Xia Jian then realized that Wang Youcai was unable to lose face. He asked him to drink with him. In the eyes of the villagers, he was giving Wang Youcai accompanies Chen Erniu. Although Wang Youcai has such a virtue, he is smart and very cunning in his heart.
Xia Jian's mind turned, then he smiled and said, "Yes! Then we both agreed that we could only drink one bottle of wine, and not drink one drop. How about it?"
"Okay! Just do what you said"
Wang Youcai said, waved and called Chen Gui and whispered something in his ear. Chen Gui nodded constantly while listening.
After a while, Chen Gui set up a small dining table on the kang in the west room where he lived. When Xia Jian and Wang Youcai entered, four side dishes were placed on the table, and two small wine glasses and a bottle of unopened white wine were placed on the table.
Meizi was wearing a white mourning clothes, and she said to Xia Jian hoarsely: "The master I invited to go back tonight. I did it myself, so you two will just do it. When this matter is over, I ask Chen Gui to invite you over and I will treat you well."
"Okay! It's very good, go ahead and go! Oh! I have to remind you, auntie doesn't enjoy the blessing of a day. If someone's parents make any requests, you can agree, and you don't have enough money to speak at any time. Also, don't be afraid of spending money this time. Those who come to sit at night and like drinking will put the wine and vegetables on for others, which won't cost much."
Wang Youcai whispered to make arrangements for Mei Zi, and Mei Zi nodded constantly.
As soon as Mei Zi left, Xia Jian and Wang Youcai took off their shoes and went to the kang. Since they wanted to drink, they had to look like they were drinking. Isn’t it just a bottle of wine? After drinking it early, go back to bed early.
Xia Jian opened the wine bottle and poured a glass for him and Wang Youcai. Then he lifted the wine glass and said, "Everything is in the wine."
After Xia Jian finished speaking, he raised his neck and finished his composure. Wang Youcai was stunned for a moment and finished drinking the wine in the cup.
This time, Wang Youcai snatched the bottle and poured wine for them. Xia Jian did not stop him. As soon as the wine was poured, Xia Jian raised his glass and said, "Come on! I'll eat the food after two more cups."
Wang Youcai was not outdone, and followed Xia Jian to drink two glasses. At this time, after a few good wines in the village, they found that someone was drinking in the west room, so they gathered around. Five or six people came in one go. When they came, they couldn't let them watch! As soon as these people joined, a bottle of wine was finished soon.
Someone called Chen Gui. Chen Gui understood at a glance. He carried a box from the upper room and placed it on the ground. There were six bottles of white wine in a box, which should be allowed to drink until dawn.
It has been so many years since this kind of scene is very far away for Xia Jian. I remember that when he was lying in the village, he often sat with some young people in the village to drink. Drinking a few dollars of white wine, it is optional to serve wine and food. At that time, the wine was very fragrant and the relationship between everyone was very strong. Now everything has improved, but Xia Jian feels that there is no meaning in the future.
Almost ten people started drinking, and a bottle of wine was finished quickly. Xia Jian had a large amount of alcohol, so he had no problem, but Wang Youcai couldn't do it. When the three bottles of white wine were finished, his tongue straightened and his words could not turn around.
Drinking with these young people in the village, Xia Jian and Wang Youcai became their toasts. They took turns to toasting each other. This way, the wine was like drinking it off. It would be strange if Wang Youcai was not drunk.
Xia Jian always kept his mind clear on such occasions. He took the grounds that Wang Youcai had to go to the city to purchase food for Chen Gui's family the next day, so he got off the kang and helped Wang Youcai back home.
As soon as Chen Gui's family came out, Wang Youcai's big words came. He walked around his tongue and said, "Xia Jian! I can still drink it. But my tongue is a little unblocked. In fact, it's nothing. It's not a problem to drink another pound."
"I know you can drink, but you should drink less in this kind of occasion because you also have to help Chen Gui. Alas! Mei Zi's performance seems to be good in the past two days."
Xia Jian said, then changed the topic.
When she mentioned Mei Zi, Wang Youcai straightened her back. He gently pushed Xia Jian away and said, "This woman is very good at acting. But she has cried more sad than anyone else these two days. I don't know if she has had true feelings or she has performed it for everyone again."
"You don't know. One night when I heard that the crying was from the Chen Gui family, I was a little scared. If something happened to Mei Zi, then I would..."
"You're thinking too much. Just like Mei Zi, she isn't crazy enough yet? Why do you think about dying? But to be honest, I'm really worried about Chen Gui."
When Wang Youcai mentioned the matter at Chen Gui's family, he was drunk and he was relieved. Not only could he walk straight, but he even knew a lot about his words.
The two of them walked slowly under the dim street lights. In fact, it was past three o'clock in the night. The whole village was very quiet, and even the dogs who were watching seemed to be in their sleep at this time.
Xia Jian sent Wang Youcai to the gate of his house, watched him enter the gate of the yard, and heard someone talking in the yard, he quickly left and returned home.
Because she slept too late, when Xia Jian opened her eyes, Dabao's little feet were stepping on his face. It turned out that Ma Yan was holding the child and teasing him.
"What time is it now, let me sleep for a while!"
Xia Jian said, then turned his body over again.
Ma Yan gently slapped Xia Jian on the face with her hands and said, "Get up quickly! It's ten o'clock. Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year. Generally, there are many relatives here, what do you look like when you are lying on the bed?"
After Ma Yan said this, Xia Jianqiang was energetic and turned over from the bed. He teased his son for a few more times before he started to wear clothes.
