Chapter 838 Dragon Boat Festival, Realgar Wine (Subscription Request)
Half a month passed in a flash.
And the Dragon Boat Festival arrived as scheduled.
Xu Xian sprinkled realgar powder on the side of the house to prevent snakes, which made Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing feel uncomfortable.
In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival came, and the heat began.
As snakes that like shade, they don’t like hot environments. This almost killed Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen.
They were almost killed by Xu Xian.
But that’s not all. When the Dragon Boat Festival came, Xu Xian took out realgar wine, "Come on, my lady, the Dragon Boat Festival is here, let’s have a drink together later."
Of course, the drink was realgar wine.
This made Bai Suzhen and the others miserable. They looked ugly. The weather was hot, and there was realgar powder. Now there was realgar wine, which was like adding fuel to the fire.
It was extremely tragic.
When the heat came, snakes naturally wanted to show their true form, and then soak in the water for a while, thinking that it would be comfortable.
Therefore, Xu Xian's behavior was like adding fuel to the fire, making Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen extremely uncomfortable.
Xu Xian's words made Bai Suzhen's face stiffen, and she looked a little unnatural, "Sir, forget drinking. You know I can't hold my liquor. Drinking too much is not good. Let's just have some delicious food to celebrate."
She didn't want to show her true form in front of Xu Xian, otherwise her identity as a snake demon would be exposed.
When Xu Xian heard Bai Suzhen's tactful refusal, he immediately persuaded her, "My lady, you don't understand this. As the saying goes: A glass of wine after dinner, live to ninety-nine. As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, let's have a good drink to celebrate.
What's more, I met Master Fahai of Jinshan Temple before. He told me that I had recently encountered a snake demon, and there was a demonic aura on my body. He also said that I could drink realgar wine to relieve it.
So, for the safety of me and you, my lady, we still have to drink this realgar wine."
Bai Suzhen: "..."
She suddenly felt that Xu Xian was a little too persistent and stubborn.
Insist on drinking realgar wine.
On the side.
Xiaoqing also looked depressed, and couldn't help but glared and said: "Xu Xian, my sister and I don't like drinking, are you going to force us to drink?"
Hearing this, Xu Xian was not angry, as if he had gotten used to it, and smiled: "Xiaoqing, how can this be called forced? Drinking realgar wine helps to relax muscles and promote blood circulation, is good for health, and is more helpful in exorcising demons and monsters. There are many benefits."
"Uh..."
For a moment, Xu Xian's words made Xiaoqing not know how to answer, and her expression was a little inexplicably nervous and stunned.
"Xu Xian, this nerd and fool, is so eloquent?"
When did this poor and pedantic guy learn such eloquence? She was a little stunned.
Is it really: I should look at you with new eyes after not seeing you for three days?
Is it that Wuxia Amon?
She thought this was a bit magical, and continued: "Xu Xian, if you want to drink, drink it yourself. Anyway, my sister and I don't want to drink any realgar wine."
Bai Suzhen also nodded slightly, indicating that she agreed with what Xiaoqing said.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xian said: "Xiaoqing, you are wrong again. Since you know that there are benefits, why don't you drink it? As a husband, I think I should ask my wife to make her health better and better. You don't know medical skills, so Xiaoqing, you don't understand the benefits of this."
Xiaoqing: "..."
Xu Xian's few short words made Xiaoqing speechless, and she didn't know what to say to refute him.
Xu Xian is so eloquent that Xiaoqing was stunned for a while.
Originally.
It's okay to drink some realgar wine on the Dragon Boat Festival, but Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing are different as snake demons.
What if the heat reveals the true form, wouldn't it scare Xu Xian to death.
This day.
The Dragon Boat Festival has arrived.
"Come on, my lady, I'll fill your glass. Let's have a drink together." Xu Xian quickly poured realgar wine for Bai Suzhen and kept persuading her.
Bai Suzhen likes to drink.
Xu Xian knew this, so she couldn't refuse, fearing that it would affect the relationship between the two.
Xiaoqing didn't plan to drink. Anyway, there was no relationship between her and Xu Xian, so she refused.
At this time.
So.
After Xu Xian's persuasion, Bai Suzhen finally nodded and said, "My lord, then...then I'll just drink a little."
Xu Xian, who was afraid that his wife would not drink any wine, nodded and thought, "At most, I will persuade my wife later. I am doing this for her good. After all, realgar wine can drive away demons."
It is definitely a good thing.
Master Fahai who came from Jinshan Temple would never lie to him. Realgar wine can definitely drive away snake demons.
Xu Xian firmly believed in this.
After a glass of wine.
Bai Suzhen didn't plan to drink any more, but she heard Xu Xian say, "Madam, let's drink this cup to celebrate the hardship we've had since we got married."
"..."
Bai Suzhen's face suddenly became awkward. Should she drink this wine or not?
She turned her head and looked at Xu Xian's sincere and serious expression. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Forget it, this is the last cup. My husband really loves me, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."
After drinking this cup.
Xu Xian said seriously again, "Madam, thank you for taking care of me for so long. I, Xu Xian, Xu Hanwen, have no way to repay you. Come, let's drink this cup together."
"..."Bai Suzhen.
Suddenly.
She was a little confused. When did Xu Xian start saying such nice things? She couldn't help but be a little shocked.
In Bai Suzhen's impression, Xu Xian is not a talkative person, just like Xiao Qing said, he is a stupid scholar.
But today she felt that Xu Xian was a little special.
Very good at talking.
He used different methods to persuade her to get drunk, and it seemed that he would not stop trying to persuade her to get drunk. This was a common trend.
After drinking the realgar wine, Bai Suzhen only felt hot all over her body. As a snake, she originally liked the cold and the cold, so this made her extremely uncomfortable.
So he immediately said: "Master, I can't bear to drink, so why don't you stop drinking. Anyway, we are happy and celebrating today. What do you think?"
She really wanted to see Xu Xian nod.
but.
Instead, Xu Xian shook his head and said, "Madam, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and you and I don't have anything important to do. It's a rare occasion to celebrate. Even if you get drunk, it's okay. I'm not afraid at home."
Bai Suzhen actually wanted to say that this was not a question of whether she was afraid or not, but a question of not being able to continue drinking.
She was really afraid of revealing her true colors. How could she explain it to Xu Xian when the time came.
After all, she is a demon.
What should Xu Xian do if she can't accept it.
These questions flashed through Bai Suzhen's mind. During the Dragon Boat Festival, it is really not appropriate for the snake demon living in Suzhou City to continue drinking.
The two cups just now were made possible by her thousands of years of practice. If she had been more ferocious, she might not have been able to suppress them.
After all, the calories in realgar wine are terrifying.
After listening to Xu Xian's words, Bai Suzhen's face suddenly turned bitter, "The official loves me so much, I...should I risk my life to accompany the gentleman for a while?"
She felt that Xu Xian did this because he loved her.
After all, Xu Xian didn't know that Bai Suzhen was a snake demon, didn't know that she couldn't drink realgar wine, and didn't know her various origins.
After thinking of this, Bai Suzhen nodded and said, "Guardian, I will only drink the last glass. What do you think?"
"Okay." Xu Xian agreed.
But after a glass of wine, Xu Xian began to think about how to persuade him to drink.
then.
I don't know when, but Xu Xian actually persuaded Bai Suzhen to drink at least a dozen glasses of realgar wine.
If it were ordinary wine, it might not be much, but realgar wine is a bit special.
As a result, Bai Suzhen didn't know what she was drinking until later, but she couldn't even hold Xiaoqing aside, so she had to let her drink.
But the final outcome is...
