Chapter 298 Drinking Too Much
Chapter 298 Drinking Too Much
Being protected by someone wholeheartedly is indeed a very dangerous thing.
Li Huaiqing realized later that he had always wanted her to depend on him, but perhaps in the end he would become dependent on her and could not live without her.
He had a sense of crisis and instinctively felt that it was not good, but he couldn't say no to Lou Xiao. After all -
Who else would carefully check every item at his entrance?
For example, now, the villagers blocking the entrance to the village are singing loudly, requiring the guests coming in to drink the wine they brewed themselves.
Li Huaiqing lowered his eyes to look at the turbid wine in the coarse porcelain bowl, and did not want to drink it.
But it was already in front of him, like he was being put on a pedestal. If he didn't drink it, it would seem like he was looking down on him.
Is it a show of force?
Li Huaiqing opened his mouth helplessly and was about to refuse the drink, but Lou Xiao came out from behind and snatched it away. He raised his head and drank it in one gulp, revealing the bottom of the bowl.
The villagers were startled, and began to pour another bowl in a hurry with laughter. They sang louder and louder, and clapped their hands to urge her to drink it quickly.
Lou Xiao did not refuse and ate one bowl after another.
Li Huaiqing tilted his head and looked at her. As the villagers became more and more excessive, he could no longer remember how much she had drunk.
Lou Xiao's expression did not change, but Li Huaiqing's face darkened first.
Seeing that the matter was about to be done, the leader of the village toasting stopped immediately, raised his smiling face and welcomed the people in.
Li Huaiqing held Lou Xiao's hand and turned his head from time to time to see if she was feeling unwell.
Lou Xiao just smiled and looked normal.
But after this incident, Li Huaiqing would not take the village leader lightly.
The one who dared to make things difficult right from the start must have been the "thorny" Nanzi that Qieyue Village referred to.
"Your distinguished guests have come from afar. Lord Mother Earth, we have presented you with good wine. What sincerity are you prepared to show?"
Li Huaiqing was originally prepared to speak in a nice tone, but now he couldn't have a nice expression and said in a cold voice,
"That's your good wine? You need a recipe to make it better, so you don't make such turbid and ugly wine."
His disdain was evident in his words, and the village leaders certainly knew it.
But as a heavy drinker, he gave up his original intention to embarrass me and asked with a smug look,
"What's the recipe? Isn't your Central Plains wine like this?"
Li Huaiqing silently said "idiot" and his expression became a little better. "Our wine is clear, mellow, and full of the fragrance of grain. Of course, it is much better than yours.
If you want to know—"
Li Huaiqing stretched out his voice, "Prepare a few clean guest rooms for us, and I will teach you."
"Then it's a deal! You can't be as cunning as the people in the Central Plains, otherwise I will lock the village and won't let you leave!"
The person in charge looked alert and called the villagers to take them to their residence.
The journey was tiring. The terrain in Nanzi was not suitable for riding in a carriage, which made Li Huaiqing very tired.
But in fact, Lou Xiao is the most tired one. After all, along the way, there were so many times that they could move forward only because of her.
For the first time, Li Huaiqing felt that practicing martial arts was very useful.
Now he just wanted to take some rest before competing with the person in charge.
But after what happened just now, he felt that they might be simpler than he thought.
Lou Xiao lived next door to him. In order to get the "good wine-making recipe" mentioned by Li Huaiqing, the village leader sent a plate of fruit.
Urge him to speak out quickly.
As a result, Li Huaiqing was no longer in a hurry. He cleaned himself up slowly, took the fruit plate that was delivered to him, and knocked on Lou Xiao's door.
Lou Xiao didn't respond for a long time, and Li Huaiqing thought she was busy with personal matters.
But through the gap in the door, I saw her sitting upright, her hands on the table, massaging her temples.
It seems that the turbid wine still had an effect on her.
Li Huaiqing knocked on the door again, and this time he finally heard a response. Lou Xiao's voice was soft and low.
"come in."
Li Huaiqing walked closer to her step by step, put down the fruit plate and stood behind her, stretching out his hand to massage himself on her behalf.
His hand is like a pen-holding hand, with soft fingertips and just the right amount of pressure.
Lou Xiao sighed softly, "Ah, I feel better."
"Is there something wrong with the wine?" Li Huaiqing asked, "Why did you rush over to drink it? Are you feeling uncomfortable now?"
“That’s just their own brew. It doesn’t look as good as ours, but it still tastes very strong.
I feel uncomfortable when I drink, it's okay, it will be fine after a while."
Li Huaiqing continued to press her temples, "What if you don't drink it?"
"It's okay." Lou Xiao opened his eyes. "In their eyes, face is more important than anything else. If you lose their face, they will probably fight to the death."
For someone like Li Huaiqing, it is naturally best not to anger others.
The two chatted for a long time, and Lou Xiao fell asleep on the table without knowing when.
Li Huaiqing put down his hand and sat beside her. He pushed her gently to try to wake her up, but found that he couldn't wake her up at all.
He took a small bite from the fruit plate and thought about how to communicate with the person in charge.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Lou Xiao suddenly woke up from her sleep.
She seemed to be looking at him, but not really.
Li Huaiqing took a piece of fruit with a fork and put it to her mouth.
She opened her mouth and bit into it reflexively. Li Huaiqing looked at the clean fork.
He took another piece.
Lou Xiao seemed to be in a state of ignorance. Li Huaiqing kept feeding her, and she kept eating.
Lou Xiao quickly finished the plate of fruit.
Li Huaiqing fed her with particular enthusiasm. Curious about how much she could eat, he asked someone to bring food over.
I don't know if it's the effect of the alcohol, Lou Xiao hasn't lost his mind, but he can't be completely sober either.
Li Huaiqing inexplicably discovered something addictive, which was to feed her.
She never seemed to like being served personally, but not now.
Li Huaiqing picked out the food on the table and fed it to her one by one.
This illusion of being able to control her was crazy. Li Huaiqing knew that what he was doing was wrong, but -
Seeing Lou Xiao sitting obediently, he couldn't help it.
Li Huaiqing wiped the rice grains from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and fed her while coaxing her in a low voice, just like taking care of a child.
When she wasn't paying attention, she could even tuck the hair around his ears.
Li Huaiqing had never approached her so actively before, and when she showed no reaction,
He thought about it for a long time but didn't do anything else. After carefully observing Lou Xiao for a long time, as Lou Xiao's eyes became clearer and clearer,
He knew that there might never be another feeding like this one.
At this point, Li Huaiqing knew one of Lou Xiao's weaknesses, which was that he couldn't drink alcohol.
Fortunately, she was just quiet when she was drunk, not noisy or noisy.
Maybe he can do whatever he wants.
As long as she wasn't on guard against him.
