Chapter 119 3 Drunk
Chapter 119 3 Drunk
Even Miss Yingying came to help. Ji Jiuying knew that it must have been arranged by Ye Qingchen.
With people from Qi Yeyue Tower here, those who want to cause trouble should think twice before doing anything.
They learned from Yingying that Ye Qingchen is not in Cangyue Country now, and they don’t know where he has gone.
Ji Jiuying had no choice but to give up. She had originally wanted to invite him to cut the ribbon together.
"Xiaojiu, we are here." Wen Longting's voice came from the crowd.
Wen Longting, Wen Longxiu, and Fatty Zhen squeezed out from the crowd.
"Why are you here?" Ji Jiuying came up and said with a smile.
"Of course we're here to help, and to bring gifts!" Wen Longting pointed at the things the guards were moving.
"Oh, you come when you want to, what gift do you want to give?"
"Huh~ Why is Chu Yu gone?" Ji Jiuying looked behind her.
"My eldest brother went back to the academy, so he didn't come." Wen Longxiu replied.
"Oh, okay then. By the way, how about you writing? I want to write a few poems and hang them on the wall." Ji Jiuying asked.
There's nothing we can do, since she doesn't know how to write with a brush!
"What a coincidence, Ah Xiu's calligraphy and painting are the best." Fatty Zhen said excitedly.
"Yes, sister's handwriting is very beautiful." Wen Longting agreed.
"Then I'll trouble you, Xiu." Ji Jiuying handed the ancient poem she had written on a piece of paper to Wen Longxiu.
"It's not a trouble. We are here to help!" Wen Longxiu said and then looked at the poem in her hand. She was stunned. This poem was really great.
The wine enters the sad heart and turns into acacia tears.
Drink a cup of wine to relieve all the worries.
Spend your life with poetry and wine, and you will be like the immortals.
Even when you are sober, you are still drunk and you are still awake, smiling at the world.
Advise Jun to make a glass of wine even more, and there is no reason for him to go out of Yangguan.
Don’t worry about getting drunk a thousand times in a hundred years, one cup of wine can dispel eternal sorrow.
If there is wine in life, you must be drunk. Never does a drop of it reach Jiuquan.
There is wine today, drunk today, and tomorrow will be sad.
The dew hates the morning light and the flowers hate the autumn. After getting drunk, only sorrow is left.
······
"Xiaojiu, did you write all these poems?" Wen Longxiu asked after she came back to her senses.
Ji Jiuying said calmly that it was the Imperial Master who did it, and they didn't dare to ask anyway.
Wen Longxiu suddenly realized what was going on. So that's how it was. She had to say that this imperial teacher had great literary talent.
"..."
After a while, Wen Longxiu finished writing the poems one by one, and Fatty Zhen and Wen Longting were responsible for hanging them up.
Ji Jiuying saw that it was almost time, so she asked Yingyue to go to the door to set off firecrackers. After the firecrackers stopped going off, Ji Jiuying gently pulled the red cloth on the plaque, revealing the three large gold-plated characters "Three Thousand Drunks".
Only then did Ji Jiuying see the true appearance of the door plaque.
The plaque is purple-black in color, the wood is delicate and oily, both hard and soft, and the wood has a slight fragrance.
The light and purple-black textures are interlaced, and the edges are polished smooth.
It looks like small-leaf red sandalwood.
Qing Chen was really thoughtful and she really liked the plaque.
Next time we meet, I must thank Ye Qingchen properly.
Ji Jiuying stood in the middle of the door and shouted loudly: "Everyone, I am the owner of this tavern. We have various flavors of spiritual fruit wine in our tavern. Drinking it will not make you drunk or hurt your body, and it may even help you improve your cultivation. Today is the first day of opening, and all the wines are 50% off."
Everyone: Is it so magical?
Yes, isn't it just spiritual fruit wine? What's so special about it? It's everywhere on the street.
Can it help with promotion? Is this woman just bragging?
Who is this woman? How could she open a tavern in front of Qi Yeyue Tower?
I don’t know him, but I do know that the two women behind him are the daughters of the Wen family, one of the three major families.
Hmm, this woman looks familiar.
Yes, I think so too.
I remembered, this seems to be Princess Anping! I saw her move into the Princess's Mansion yesterday.
Everyone showed a look of understanding on their faces, and the previous contempt in their eyes was gone.
Everyone in Kyoto knows that the princess has a dragon. To be recognized by the dragon, she must have some extraordinary qualities.
"Everyone, there are many seats inside, please come in in an orderly manner~" Yingying stood next to Ji Jiuying and shouted, causing a commotion in the crowd.
With Yingying's encouragement, the pub was filled with people one after another in an instant.
Everyone's eyes were on the decoration of the pub. The decoration style was really unique, and there were also those transparent wine cabinets filled with colorful wines of various flavors.
The most attractive thing is the poems hanging on the wall.
Some people who are well-read and have literary talent felt their heartbeats quicken, their blood boil, and they cheered loudly after reading it.
What a great saying: Drink today and be drunk today, worry about tomorrow when it comes!
······
Everyone couldn't wait to ask the waiter to bring more wine.
Hiss~ This wine is really delicious, sweet with a hint of alcohol, soft, smooth and fragrant in the mouth, after drinking a glass, the wine flows down the intestinal wall like rain on dry land, moisturizing and making the body warm wherever it goes. It is different from other spiritual fruit wines, both in feeling and taste.
The more I drink, the more refreshed I feel. The more I drink, the more clear my body feels. Spiritual energy automatically gathers in my body. Could it be that, as Princess Anping said, it can help people advance?
However, in this situation, even if one cannot advance, just by drinking it, the body can automatically gather spiritual energy, which is quite explosive.
The sound of a piano interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Behind the gauze curtain on the stage, a graceful figure was holding a pipa. Her slender jade fingers played an unknown tune on the pipa like flowing water. Her sleeves and the aqua blue pipa complemented each other.
The sound of the piano seemed to rise, like smoke and rain, like silk and fog. Gradually, the sound became faster and the artistic conception rose to another stage, like white jade falling on a pearl plate, like wild geese flying in the blue sky, swallows cutting through the spring breeze, and eagles flying through willow waves.
Finally, he slowed down the pressing with his right hand, and a soft tremor leaked out quietly. In the tavern, the lingering sound would probably last for three days.
After the song, everyone felt that their headaches and leg soreness were gone, and their whole bodies were filled with strength.
"Okay." Someone in the crowd shouted, breaking the silence.
What followed were excited shouts and cheers, which echoed each other, one after another, and it was extremely lively. The crowd was really excited, with thunderous applause and endless praise.
"Let's play it again. This song is so beautiful."
"Yes, yes, yes. Play one more song and I'll give you three more jugs of wine."
"I'll serve five pots."
"I'll serve ten jugs of wine!"
Those who were outside the door and did not have time to come in regretted their decision after hearing the faint sound of the piano and the calls. However, the place was already full and they could not get in even though they wanted to!
We can only wait for the people inside to come out.
