No matter how annoying he is on weekdays, this is still his brother.
The wine and food were all ready, so Brother Jiu didn't stop him from drinking.
The third elder brother finished pouring the second pot of wine and reached for the third pot.
His chopsticks are not meant for picking up vegetables, they are only used for the red chili peppers.
Spicy stir-fried ribs, without stir-fried ribs, with dried chili peppers.
Spicy scallops, without the scallops, with dried chili peppers.
Spicy pig's trotters, without pig's trotters, with dried chili peppers.
Brother Jiu felt uncomfortable in his mouth when he looked at it.
This person has never seen the power of chili peppers. Not only will his mouth and stomach feel uncomfortable, but there are also unspeakable things.
The third elder brother's tears finally came down, and when he saw the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother looking at him, his lips twitched.
"This chili is quite flavorful..."
"hehe……"
Brother Jiu was very helpless and said: "I know, I know, you are crying because of the abuse, not because you feel uncomfortable!"
The third elder brother held the chili pepper and wanted to reply, but didn't want to say it anymore.
Keep chewing the pepper.
Not to mention, my tongue is sore.
A meal is eaten from the beginning of the afternoon to the end of the day.
The ninth elder brother didn't take a few bites of the food on the table, and the tenth elder brother didn't use his chopsticks very much. They all left it to the third elder brother to drink, and he ate half of the food.
After putting down his chopsticks, Third Brother burped and loosened two buttonholes of his belt.
Brother Jiu looked at the three empty wine bottles and said, "Can you still get up now?"
The third elder brother waved his hand and said: "Don't underestimate me, I'm not drunk..."
After saying that, he stood up steadily and looked really good.
He came out of the palace before without anyone around him.
Brother Jiu then motioned to He Yuzhu and Wang Changshou to follow them, ready to help them at any time.
The third elder brother has a straight body and is not crooked.
Brother Jiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it.
Although he didn't take the initiative to be a host, he was treating the guests himself, and he still hoped that the third elder brother could calm down.
When he came down the stairs, the third elder brother realized something was wrong.
The legs will not bend and the head will fall down.
Fortunately, He Yuzhu walked in front and Wang Changshou followed behind. The two of them looked at each other clearly. One stepped forward to block the situation and the other hugged him from behind, which prevented the third elder brother from rolling down the stairs.
Brother Jiu was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.
If he fell down, he would probably lose his arm or leg.
When the time comes, not only does Third Brother himself suffer, but he, the host, will also suffer.
"I'm not drunk..."
The third elder brother felt uncomfortable being restrained, so he stretched out his hand and pushed He Yuzhu.
There are also guards in the lobby.
Today, Chunlin is on duty at Ninth Brother's place. He brought a few people with him and sat at a table with the guards from the county prince's palace.
Seeing that the masters were about to go downstairs, everyone came over and supported He Yuzhu from behind.
Brother Jiu pointed at Chunlin and said, "Hurry and help Third Master out..."
After hearing this, Chunlin grabbed the third elder brother's arm and signaled another guard to help the other end. The two of them helped and carried the third elder brother down the stairs.
The lobby was full of people, and they all looked over to watch the excitement.
The third elder brother was not idle and said: "It's been three years. I haven't drank seriously in three years... I'm not drunk. My alcohol capacity is only two kilograms..."
Each jug was half a catty, so he drank so steadily.
The total amount did not reach his drinking capacity, but when mixed together, the drink would have twice the potency, which was something he could not predict.
Brother Jiu said disgustedly: "Whoever stopped you from drinking it? It's nothing valuable. I'll give you two jars later!"
He didn't know that there was a previous relationship, so he just thought that the third elder brother was stingy and reluctant to drink.
The third elder brother had already been helped out of the restaurant. He turned around and said, "As agreed, there will be no coaxing in the two jars."
Brother Jiu urged: "Hurry up and get in the car, go home and sober up."
"If you don't go home, the yamen will still be busy..."
As soon as the wind blew, the third elder brother was confused, but he still spoke harshly.
When he opened his mouth, the smell of alcohol hit his nostrils.
This stinks...
The ninth elder brother was so excited that he took a few steps back and said to Chunlin: "Send the third master back to the county prince's mansion..."
Chunlin responded, and along with the other guards, carried the third elder brother to the carriage.
There was only one car in total, and the third elder brother occupied it, and the ninth elder brother didn't want to get in.
He wanted to ride home, but was stopped by the 10th Prince.
I just finished eating and walked in the wind. My stomach doesn't hurt and my head hurts.
The tenth elder brother asked the shopkeeper to find a carriage, and he and the ninth elder brother got on the carriage.
"This meal is all about watching the third brother show off his tricks!"
Brother Ninth said.
He was clearly an uninvited guest, but instead became the host and guest.
The tenth elder brother said: "Among so many elder brothers, our family is the only one with more children who have died in infancy, and the youngest elder brother has lost three. I don't blame him for feeling uncomfortable. Compared with him, this is nothing to me..."
Brother Jiu sighed.
There are so many nieces and nephews, some of whom I have no memory of at all.
Even here with the tenth elder brother, what he feels sorry for is not the little elder brother, but the tenth elder brother.
Shi Fujin is not sensible, so Brother Shi taught him every detail for several years, but he still made no progress.
It’s just that it’s boring to keep saying these words.
It seemed like he was trying to drive a wedge between his younger brother and his wife.
From the outside, it seems that Lao Shi is from the most noble family and Fujin has the highest status among the princes. However, this marriage is just a matter of honor.
Shi Fujin was born in Abahai, and his natal family was in a land thousands of miles away from the capital. It was like there was no such thing as Shi Age's wife's clan.
He is not even close to his mother's family.
Compared with other princes, the tenth prince seems too lonely here.
Fortunately, I still have myself...
Brother Jiu said: "In a few days, it will be the New Year, and we need to start preparing New Year dishes. I remember that you love red bean rice cakes the most. I will ask the kitchen to make more, half red bean, yellow rice noodles and glutinous rice noodles.
Do half the same thing..."
The tenth elder brother said: "When we were young, everyone loved to eat sticky dumplings, but the ninth elder brother didn't like them."
Brother Jiu covered his mouth and said, "As soon as I ate the sticky dumplings, I felt like there was wind coming out of my mouth, and it was full of fishy smell."
Brother 10 also remembered another oolong incident.
Brother Jiu ate rice cakes when his teeth were changing, and his teeth were stuck, causing his mouth to bleed.
When I was young, I looked forward to growing up soon and being granted a title and opening a mansion; now that I am older, I realize that my childhood days were not all grievances and embarrassments.
Seeing that the tenth elder brother finally smiled, the ninth elder brother secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lao Shi doesn't like to socialize with others, but he values his family. This time he lost a son, which is a big deal.
When he arrived at the door of his house, Brother Jiu's steps became a little heavy.
Of course it wasn't because he was drunk.
There were only a few cups of rice wine in total, but I couldn't get drunk no matter what.
He was thinking of enrolling his elder brothers one by one in his family.
On my own side, Akdan was with his elder brother when he landed; on the fifth brother's side, there was no distinction between direct descendants and concubines, which was also a hidden danger.
Thinking about it, it’s really a headache.
No wonder people pity the weak and he felt sorry for Akdan.
For the same enlightenment, Fengsheng could go to the palace, but Akdan could only stay at home.
Since he had something on his mind, Shu Shu could naturally see it.
Thinking that he was still worried about the tenth brother, Shu Shu advised: "The matter is now over. It's useless for me to feel uncomfortable. It's over. If I can't let go, the tenth brother will worry about you again."
Brother Jiu glanced at Shu Shu, hesitated, nodded, and said, "I understand, so I won't mention it anymore."
If Fengsheng's elder brother enters the palace to study, the fastest he can do is the year after next, with the eighteenth elder brother; if it is slower, it will be six years old, one year later than the eighteenth elder brother.
Maybe things will turn around by then, so there's no need to tell Shu Shu now and make her worry.
Brother Ninth remembered what he said to Brother Ten.
"In a few days, I will prepare New Year dishes and ask people to make more rice cakes. I promised Lao Shi that I would add half of the red beans..."
Shu Shu nodded and decided to ask the kitchen to make more beef jerky and make snacks for Shi Fujin.
When something like this happened in the Prince's Mansion, Shu Shu, the sister-in-law, should have gone there in person to comfort Shi Fujin.
But now that she is like this, it is difficult for her to move. If she has to go there, she will cause trouble for others.
Shu Shu thought that Brother Jiu had always been critical of Shi Fujin, and he wanted to express his anger this time, so he slowly told the gossip that Ging Guo had heard.
"The tenth brother is from a good family, and he also owns the private houses of Empress Xiaozhao and the imperial concubine. Not to mention the rich dowries of the tenth brother and sister, the foreign goods shop is also making money every day. Life is so good these days, so I hired Xiaozhi for no reason.
People are jealous. Nowadays, there are many people suffering from pink eye disease, and there are also many people who harm others and do not benefit themselves..."
Brother Jiu felt ridiculous when he heard this nonsense.
"With the surname of Guo Luoluo, she becomes my cousin? Why not say she is a girl from Bafujin? Is this Guo Luoluo restless and deliberately raising flags?"
This Guo Luoluo Gege naturally has nothing to do with Jiu Age’s maternal family.
On the other hand, on the Bafujin side, Bafujin's ancestors and Yifei's ancestors are indeed of the same clan, but the Bafujin family is from the lineage of the clan leader, while the Yifei family is just an ordinary clan member.
The great ancestor of the Bafu Jin Dynasty was married to Emperor Taizu as his sister, and became a relative of the state. Later, his great-grandfather married Princess Shang, his grandfather married the county lord, and his father married the princess. They were married to the royal family and the clan for generations.
Yifei's ancestor, her great-grandfather was Taizong's personal guard. Her grandfather began to serve as the assistant leader of Shengjing and was in charge of the defense seal of Shengjing Pass. Until Sanguanbao was transferred from Shengjing, he was a trusted retainer of the royal family.
Shu Shu said: "I am telling you this because I want to remind my tenth brother later that the fence in the village is more important. My brothers and sisters are simple-minded. If someone really does something bad, I have to have my tenth brother to guard against it..."
