Good luck every time

Chapter 146 Drink a bowl of wine

Li Ruyi was not polite either. This was not a matter of being polite. She had always been able to put aside her pride and would never refuse if it was convenient for her.

"No trouble, right?"

When her aunt saw her look, she burst out laughing.

"He looks like a child! Go ahead, it's no trouble."

Li Ruyi quickly thanked him.

"Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law."

Although the other party looks to be in her thirties now and there is no problem for her to be her mother, but if they are not of the same generation, Li Ruyi will just call her sister-in-law.

It's not necessarily about trying to please others, but mainly about taking advantage of seniority first, otherwise people will always ask her to play with the little kids.

"Haha! You kid! Who did you learn that from..."

Li Ruyi took out his suitcase from the house and followed the instructions to go to the room at the back. The room was not big and the kang was also small, but the doors and windows were in good condition, and there was a key hanging on the wall at the entrance.

Li Ruyi put her things in place, picked out some nice hair ornaments from the box, trimmed them and put them in her arms.

By the way, she put half of the hundred coins back. The gift money in the village was not that big, and it would be too conspicuous for her to take out a hundred coins, as if she was being taken advantage of.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Here, giving fifty cents is considered respectable.

Many families only gave twenty or thirty cents, and a family of seven or eight came to the banquet.

Of course, this is the custom in the village. No one despises it and will take care of those families who have lost their young and strong people.

She closed the doors and windows and came out of the house.

She wasn't in a hurry to lock the door, nor was she in a hurry to go out.

I just watched people working in the backyard, keeping an eye on my own things while helping others with their work.

At first she was helping people get some food and stuff, but later somehow she got the job of cutting vegetables.

Her craftsmanship is really good, and many people praise her when they pass by.

Li Ruyi waited until they were almost done with their work before taking out the head flowers she had just prepared and giving one to each of them.

When she was putting the flowers in her hair, the groom and his bride passed by the gate, and there was laughter all around.

The red glow of the setting sun enveloped the entire village. Amid the noisy voices, Li Ruyi also became familiar with a group of aunts and sisters.

Some people chased to watch the wedding ceremony.

But more people came back from the door.

As soon as they came back, everyone saw that Li Ruyi had become one with the others.

After the ceremony, the wedding banquet will begin.

Li Ruyi quietly locked the door.

She had inquired about it. People in the village ate at separate tables, with men in the front yard and women in the back yard.

With her current identity, she must go to the front yard. There will be many people around, so she better lock the door to make herself feel more at ease.

She put the key into her saddle bag, straightened the red envelope, and hung around in the backyard for a while before being pulled to the front yard by Tian Laoer.

Li Ruyi found the old man who wrote the gift account and presented him with her red envelope. She wrote the two words "Li Er" on the red envelope with charcoal.

The old man who was writing the gift account was surprised when he saw her handwriting.

The groom's relative who was collecting the gift money stood up quickly and tried to refuse it, after all, they were not very familiar with each other.

Li Ruyi smiled and pushed it back.

"It's fate that we happened to meet. I'll just go with the flow!"

After hearing this, the other party couldn't refuse and accepted the red envelope. Li Ruyi then turned around to find Tian Laoer.

After the person collecting the gifts collected the money, he grabbed the groom over.

The groom was also confused, so he went to the boss and asked if he could accept the money.

The boss didn't expect this either, so after a moment of hesitation, he let him take it.

Li Ruyi found his acquaintance Tian Laoer, and the two sat at the table below and chatted.

Tian Laoer is really good at talking nonsense. Li Ruyi feels like his endless saliva is about to spray on her.

Just as she was chatting happily, a hand grabbed the back of her collar and lifted her up.

Li Ruyi was startled and turned around to see the boss who had changed his clothes.

"Why are you sitting here? Come on! Follow me to the front."

Li Ruyi: …

Her little arms and legs were no match for her.

"Ah, ah, ah... Boss, we can talk it over. I can walk on my own!"

The boss was worried that she would refuse, so he took her to the main table and stuffed her in the middle of a group of old men.

Li Ruyi: …

She took a deep breath. No wonder she didn't let go. If she had been a step earlier, she would have run away.

Who wants to eat with the elders?

She is such a foodie.

However, she had already sat down, and was brought here by the boss himself, so it would be inappropriate for her to run away.

She seemed very weak.

Putting aside the issue of age, a guest like her, who happened to arrive at the host's wedding, always had to sit closer to the front.

And her position also reflects the master's attitude towards her.

Since people treated him with courtesy, Li Ruyi would not be a bad guest.

The boss sits at the top, this is the rule in the village.

Next to him were the clan elders, and Li Ruyi sat a little further back.

The yard was full of people, but some people had to stay in the kitchen. Those who couldn't eat in this round and couldn't sit down had to wait for the next round.

After a while, the dishes started to be served, one plate after another, all filled with greasy and meaty dishes.

Li Ruyi was not in a hurry to eat. She listened to the groom's elders greeting everyone. When all the dishes were served, the groom began to toast.

He brought his brothers with him to stop the drinking.

However, he still had to toast this table himself.

The lights in the yard were bright. Li Ruyi looked at the groom who was coming over. He looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his appearance could not be seen clearly in the darkness.

He was wearing a bright red fine cloth garment, and his brother was holding a jar of wine for him.

When he came over, he first greeted everyone, then poured wine and toasted everyone one by one.

However, when it came to Li Ruyi's turn, the person pouring the wine obviously hesitated.

This child is too young. Can he drink alcohol?

Li Ruyi felt the cool breeze from the mountains blowing over, and even his not-so-thin clothes felt a little chilly.

As if she noticed the man's hesitation, she picked up the wine bowl and prepared to take a sip to warm her body before deciding whether to drink it or not.

Even though she hadn't received special training like in her previous life, she could still drink quite well.

The person pouring the wine shook his hands twice and filled the bowl that Li Ruyi was holding.

The groom came over to toast and she stood up too.

Ah!

The people in this village are all quite tall...

The groom was obviously not good at speaking. He looked at Li Ruyi and swallowed her saliva in embarrassment. His toes were probably about to make a hole in the sole of his shoe.

It was Li Ruyi who rescued him.

"I wish you a happy marriage and a long life together."

After saying that, she clinked the groom's wine bowl with her wine bowl, tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp.

The groom was also honest. He followed her movements and drank up the wine in his hand.

The slightly cool smell of wine enters the stomach, and a warm feeling slowly rises.

The wine in the village is all home-brewed and the alcohol content is not high.

After eating this bowl of soup, Li Ruyi felt that the coldness of the night wind in the mountains had been dispelled a lot.

The boss stared at her, afraid that she might get hurt from drinking.

However, when Li Ruyi put down the wine bowl, apart from his eyes becoming brighter, there was no apparent change.

"Brother Li has ever drunk at home before?"

Li Ruyi has never drunk alcohol in her life, but her eldest sister was said to have been fed alcohol by her grandfather when she was one month old.

At that time, I just picked up a drop with chopsticks and asked her to lick it. My elder sister fell into a coma for three days.

Li Dagui had a quarrel with his alcoholic father over this matter.

Later, Li Dagui died, and Sun often talked about this incident. She wanted to use Li Dagui's love to trap Li Jixiang.

And she did.

The eldest sister is always touched, after all, she has been loved.

Li Ruyi didn't feel anything about this. She was just glad that she was not the one being fed wine at that time!

Maybe she really inherited her grandfather's drinking capacity. Most people can't drink as much as she can.

"Yes, I have. My grandfather is a heavy drinker and he likes to coax us to have a few sips every day."
