Li Rui stroked Bai Zhi as he opened the package he brought. When Bai Zhi saw the food in the package, she immediately stopped being angry with Li Rui. She lay down beside Li Rui and ate happily. Li Rui looked at her happily and ate some beef and drank some wine.
Bai Zhi only started drinking when she was more than half full. She seemed to be very experienced. She grabbed the wine jar with her two claws and used her teeth to bite the cloth on the mud seal. She removed it cleanly and then bit the jar's cornice and drank it all in one go. Then, she leaned lazily against Li Rui's side and stopped eating. She was probably waiting for the big meal in the evening. Li Rui said to Bai Zhi,"Bai Zhi, Master might be in Chang 'an for the next half a month. He's worried that you won't be able to eat well outside, so he wants you to stay with Master. However, you can't come out to play during the day ~~" Bai Zhi was a little unhappy when she heard that she couldn't go out to play.
Li Rui patted Bai Zhi's head and said," If you want to go out for a walk at night, with your speed and skills, there's no place that can stop you." But you have to go back in the morning. Once it gets dark today, follow the induction and find Master!”Li Rui accompanied Bai Zhi to sleep under the shade of a tree for an afternoon before returning to the Chai Manor alone before dark.
After Li Rui returned, he saw that someone was already waiting in the courtyard. Li Rui knew that this was a messenger boy servant. Li Rui said to him,"Tell your master that I'm back. I'm waiting for you in the courtyard ~~" The manservant left.
Not long after, maids came in with trays. There were snacks, fruits, wine, and dishes. In a short while, everything was ready. At this time, Chai Da also arrived and said,"Thank you for waiting for me, brother. I just personally went to fetch a jar of aged wine. Please forgive me for being late ~~"
"Big Brother, you don't have to be so polite. Since we're brothers, don't say anything that's too formal." Li Rui replied.
Chai Da laughed loudly and avoided his men, leaving only two maids serving tea and wine behind."Alright, brother, quickly take your seat. Let's drink and chat!”Li Rui nodded in agreement and followed Chai Da into the banquet.
After everyone sat down, Li Rui saw Chai Da trying his best to hide his neck, but Li Rui noticed a scratch mark. Li Rui smiled and said,"Elder Brother took in two new concubines yesterday. I'm sure you're feeling proud today ~~"
Chai Da had an awkward expression as he chuckled."Don't laugh at me, my brother. I'm already ashamed ~" After saying that, he said with a hint of melancholy,""Brother, today, I am looking for you to resolve this. You are an expert beyond the world, so I believe you understand more than ordinary people!”
Li Rui saw that Chai Da had become melancholic and didn't want to joke around anymore."Elder brother, if you have anything to say, just say it. This matter has already entered my ears, and I definitely won't leak it to others!”Hearing Li Rui's words, Chai Da said happily,"Younger brother, you've heard that big brother got two concubines after getting drunk yesterday, right?”"Indeed, I've heard about it ~~" Li Rui replied.
Chai Da and Li Rui raised their glasses and continued,"Eldest Brother and your sister-in-law were very fond of each other when they were young. After they got married, they were even more intimate. Unfortunately, good things don't last long. We had two daughters and a son. We were originally harmonious and beautiful. I didn't expect that my youngest son would have a congenital illness. He didn't get better after seeking treatment. Instead, it became worse. It could be said that he was worried sick. I don't have any romantic thoughts at all. The day before yesterday, my brother cured your little nephew. Originally, I wanted to stay with my family for the rest of my life and have nothing to ask for ~~! Who would have thought that after getting drunk yesterday, he would do such a sad thing to your sister-in-law in his daze? Thinking of the two girls who were just taken in as concubines by Eldest Brother, they were innocent but were harmed by the fish pond. Although Eldest Brother would not heartlessly abandon them, he could not bear to see Furen sad, so he really did not know what to do ~~"
Hearing this, Li Rui couldn't come up with any ideas. He could only advise,""Eldest Brother, I've already accepted this concubine. I feel that if I do heartless things to harm the girl, it's fine as long as Eldest Brother doesn't spoil her. Since Sister-in-law and Big Brother were in love, she just couldn't accept it for a moment and was hit. As long as Big Brother still cared and loved her, she would definitely change her mind and be willing to forgive him!!”
After Li Rui finished speaking, he was about to drink a cup of wine when he suddenly sensed that Bai Zhi had already arrived. She was just hiding. Li Rui suddenly had an idea to let Bai Zhi scare Chai Da. When a person was faced with a desperate situation, he would definitely understand what to do, how to face his wife, what he wanted the most, and what was the most important!
Li Rui secretly used his true qi to strike the acupoints in the air, causing the two maids to temporarily faint for a while. Suddenly, he had Bai Zhi jump in front of Chai Da. Li Rui quickly took two steps forward and hugged the two unconscious maids in each hand. At this moment, Chai Da was still in a daze. Suddenly, the weather changed, and a white tiger with a pair of sharp eyes descended from the sky and appeared in front of him. It even roared towards the sky as soon as its four feet landed on the ground, and then looked at the wine cup in Chai Da's hand with a greedy expression. I was stunned.
At this time, Li Rui muttered to himself,"It seems like you've gone a little overboard. Don't scare big brother silly."
Li Rui helped the two maids to sit on the chairs beside him and came forward to stop Bai Zhi. Then, he pretended to reprimand her,"Baizhi, you're too reckless. You're not allowed to eat today as punishment ~"Li Rui then whispered,""Bai Zhi, it's very good. I'll give you an extra meal tonight. Now, go and sleep for a while.”
Bai Zhi rolled her eyes and growled. At this moment, Chai Da exclaimed," What a huge tiger! Where did this tiger come from? Someone, quickly catch the tiger!" Although his face had suddenly turned pale from fright and was covered in cold sweat, he was still calm and did not become scared silly. Li Rui secretly wiped the sweat off his forehead.
They heard people rushing over from outside the courtyard. The whistling sound just now had been heard by the entire Chai Manor. Now that the servants and maids nearby had heard the old master's call, how could they not come? Li Ruigang stepped forward and said to Chai Da,"Big brother, that cat is my pet. She just wants to drink the wine in big brother's hand and never bites. Don't worry, big brother. Please let the servants and maids go back.”
Chai Da hurriedly threw away the wine cup in his hand and swallowed his saliva."This is actually my brother's pet, a cat ~" He had a look of disbelief on his face!
"Big brother, you didn't hear wrongly. This is a cat. It's just a little bigger, a big cat!" Li Rui said.”
Chai Da was indeed a true hero. Although he still had lingering fears, he had already calmed down. He said,"Brother, you are indeed a master. You can actually subdue such a big cat!"”
At this moment, the people outside the door had already arrived. The first to arrive was Butler Chai Fu. He entered the courtyard and asked Chai Da,"I wonder if you were shouting to catch the tiger just now, but we heard it all the way here but didn't see it. May I ask if you saw where the big worm ran to?”
Chai Da regained his usual composure and said,"Butler Chai, let everyone go back and rest. I was just tired and was in a daze. I mistook a big cat for a tiger and scared myself!”
When the old butler heard this, he was immediately relieved, thinking,'I must have quarreled with Madam last night and didn't rest well, that's why I'm like this.'
The old butler smiled meaningfully and said,"If that's the case, this old servant will not disturb Master's banquet. Please drink less and rest early. We will take our leave ~~"
This steward was an old man of the Chai family. Three generations of his ancestors had been the steward of the Chai family. Not only was he deeply trusted by the main family, but he was also in charge of the servants, manservants, personnel, and all chores in the residence. It could be said that he was an extremely respectable person. "Old butler, you go and arrange for everyone to disperse. You can also return to your room to rest!" Chai Da said without delay.”
Li Rui took advantage of the conversation between Chai Da and the butler to untie the two maids. Li Rui walked over to the maid who was holding the table and chair at the side. She had a pretty face and was sleeping very peacefully. She was not old, about 28 years old, and had a good figure. In particular, some parts of her body were protruding and concave. Li Rui unconsciously took a few more glances. On second thought, he was a Taoist priest, and he had obtained an expert! Everyone had the heart to love beauty. If they wanted to see it, they should interact with others openly. Even if they wanted to flirt, they could, but they should not be so wretched. In his heart, he chanted,'Heavenly Lord of the Infinite ~, Heavenly Lord of the Infinite ~!'”
He thought about Bi Yun, Chun Ming, and Xia Lian, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He wondered if they were doing well, whether they could eat and sleep well. Thinking about the beautiful thoughts he had just had, he couldn't help but feel ashamed. He still hadn't cultivated his heart enough, and needed to hurry up and train. Li Rui no longer looked at the two maids. He casually drew a few lines and pointed at the two maids from afar again, removing their sleeping acupoints. Although he didn't wake up immediately, he would wake up slowly in no time. Li Rui and his elder brother continued to drink and chat, only to see his elder brother glancing at Li Rui's Bai Zhi from time to time, thinking that he was still afraid of being wild and difficult to tame, and suddenly attacking people!
Li Rui chuckled and said," Elder brother, this little brother's big cat is very intelligent and obedient. Don't worry. She has always liked to eat roast chicken, roast duck, lamb leg, steak, and likes to drink rice wine and grape wine." Never hurt anyone!"
Chai Da was surprised when he heard this and called out,"Suet Fat, Jadeite, go and instruct the kitchen to prepare roast chicken, roast duck, lamb leg, steak, rice wine, and wine.”After saying that, she did not see anyone respond. She turned around and saw that the two girls were actually unconscious on the table and chairs beside her. She thought that they had fainted from the shock of the incident just now!
He turned to Li Rui and said considerately,"Brother, these two girls must have fainted from the shock of the accident just now. Please check their pulse to see if there are any obstructions ~" Li Rui said,"Okay," and then walked over. It turned out that these two girls were called Suet and Emerald. They really lived up to their nice names.
Li Rui pretended to take his pulse and said,"It's fine, it's just a fright. Wait for this little brother to wake them up.”Li Rui only pinched the philtrum acupoint and they woke up. Li Rui said,"Big Brother, they just fell asleep. It's better for them to rest in the room first ~"
Chai Da agreed. Li Rui turned around and said to the two maids,"The two of you can rest in my bedroom for a while ~" Li Rui had only meditated in that room and hadn't slept! However, they didn't know about this. The two girls blushed and said,"Yes!" Then, they left.
Li Rui had just turned around when he heard Chai Da say,"Virtuous brother, it's not good to have no one to serve you during this period of time you're staying in the residence. From now on, let Suet Fat and Fei Cui stay here to serve you."”Li Rui originally wanted to decline, but when he thought about how he had been taken care of by Bi Yun since he was young, and how Chun Ming and Xia Lian had taken care of him in Tian Shan, he was already used to being taken care of. Living alone, he probably wouldn't even remember to make tea, so he agreed. However, he thought about it and decided to learn a little on his own. He could not be lazy because of this.
Thank you for watching. If you think it's good, please send more flowers and collect them ~ I'll work harder ~
