Chapter 253 Drunkenness
Xu Jiao thought, yes!It's rare that she and Li Xi still have something in common, they both like to slap Jingshan.

But... Li Xie is still not smart enough to do it by himself, doesn't his hand hurt?

Xu Jiao was about to look away while slandering, not at all curious about what happened.If Jingshan didn't control her mouth and said something unpleasant, which angered this obviously fearless Mrs. Li Wu, what's so strange about being beaten?

But she didn't want to, she didn't have time to look back, Li Xie on the other end suddenly raised her eyes and looked over, the eyes of the two met through the bead curtain, and Li Xie suddenly strode towards her.

When she saw Li Xi parting the bead curtain and walking towards her, Xu Jiao still hadn't woken up.What is she here for?
"Jingyue, is this the tutor of your Jing family? What about a scholarly family and a heirloom of poetry and etiquette? I think it's worse than those shabby households. They dare to say anything, and they are not afraid of being like today every time." Like this, make a fool of yourself!" As soon as Li Ji came in front of Xu Jiao, he suddenly spoke up, but he was not polite at all.

Who knows, Xu Jiao didn't have any reaction after finishing speaking, but his face was sullen, without saying a word, the usual sweet smile on his face disappeared, his lips were pursed into a straight line, his eyes stared at her coldly, and he couldn't see her. half temperature.

For some reason, Li Xi suddenly felt a little apprehensive, swallowed quietly, and when he spoke again, his tone was obviously weaker, "Did you meet my second brother privately in Meilin today?"

Xu Jiao didn't speak, but Cui Wenyin frowned and looked at Xu Jiao, and then said, "The second cousin just said a few words with the princess, it's not a personal opinion, it's just a chance meeting, and I'm still there, open and aboveboard of……"

Li Ji glanced at Cui Wenyin, his expression slowed down a little, and when he turned his gaze to Xu Jiao again, he was still unfriendly, "Even if it was just a coincidence, do you know how ugly what Jingshan said just now? Jingyue, since you are engaged, you should be careful, don't you?" It will hurt the reputation of others."

After Li Xi finished speaking, he turned around and slammed the curtain away.

After walking a few steps, he bumped into Princess Huiming who was waiting for guests outside. Hearing that the girls in the Accord were making a fuss, she rushed to find out the situation.

However, Li Xie just paused in his footsteps, just passed Princess Huiming and left.

Princess Huiming looked at the bead curtain, then turned her gaze away, and chased after her while shouting "熳熳".

Xu Jiao looked away from their mother and daughter, turned to Cui Wenyin and said, "Leave them alone, let's continue painting. I'm thirsty, pour me a cup of the sherbet just now!"

Cui Wenyin let out a "huh" and turned around to pour the sherbet for her. Who knows, when she lifted the pot, it was light, and when she poured it, there was nothing left.

When Xu Jiao saw it, he was a little stunned, "Drink it all?" And it seemed that she drank it all by herself.

"Wait a minute!" Cui Wenyin said, she raised her hand to summon her personal maid, who went away with an empty pot, and came back after a while, with another full pot.

"This sherbet tastes good." Cui Wenyin poured Xu Jiao a glass, and she drank it down again, thinking about it while saying.

Cui Wenyin frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's not sherbet, it's plum wine specially made by the Li Mansion. It's wine after all, so drink less."

It's actually wine?Xu Jiao was stunned, but he didn't even taste the slightest smell of wine.

Xu Jiao nodded in response, lowered his head and began to concentrate on painting.

After a while, I can draw.Two pictures, one for Princess Huiming and one for Mrs. Cui Si.

One painting only depicts a plum, and it is an ancient plum, standing proudly in the wind, with clusters of branches and branches, the artistic conception is beautiful and far away.

The other one is the sea of ​​fragrant snow in the distant view, with thousands of pistils and thousands of flowers. It is really white when viewed from a distance, and the sea of ​​snow is thousands of hectares.

Everyone applauded without exception, Xu Jiao laughed and said, "I don't know if it's because of the plum wine I drank today, if I'm good at writing, I've finished two pictures with just a few strokes. I hope my aunt and Wen Yin will like it." Xu Jiao said, and was about to lean, but who knew that when he leaned over, he would fall down.

Lingxue hurriedly supported her, only then did everyone see that her cheeks were flushed, her body exuded a faint smell of alcohol, and her eyes were a little blurred. No wonder she spoke more freely than usual just now.

"Have you been drinking?" The Eldest Princess frowned, leaned forward and asked.

"I didn't drink much, just... just two..." Xu Jiao leaned on the shoulder of the snow, giggling, stretching out two fingers and gesticulating.

"I drank two jugs of plum wine!" Cui Wenyin said bravely.

"Two pots?" The eldest princess' voice changed.

"This plum wine tastes light and sweet, but it has a lot of stamina. There are quite a few of these two jugs, why don't you stop it?" Princess Huiming's expression also changed.

"I'm not drunk! I can't drink well, so I won't get drunk!" At this time, Xu Jiao suddenly broke out.

As long as people who say "I'm not drunk" are all drunk without exception, they are very drunk.

"My princess doesn't drink very well..." Negative Xue said in embarrassment.

"Who said I can't drink enough? People say that I'm not drunk, don't you believe me? If you don't believe me, I'll show you two steps!" Xu Jiao pushed the snow and walked crookedly. I won't talk about how horrible the walk was, but when she took the third step, her body softened and she fell backwards. Luckily, Lingxue was prepared to catch her firmly, but this time she made no noise at all. He didn't move or move, he was completely drunk to death.

There was an eerie silence in the surrounding area, and after a while, the eldest princess held her forehead and sighed, "Hongying, please invite Mrs. Zhao!" Today's banquet might not last.

Xu Jiao didn't eat the banquet, but was hurriedly taken back to the mansion by Mrs. Zhao.Although everyone present knew the meaning of Princess Huiming and the eldest princess, they didn't dare to say anything more, but Princess Yingyue drank two pots of plum wine alone when painting, and died of drunkenness before the banquet. It was passed on.

Fortunately, no big jokes were made, after all, it is harmless, and it is even better that Princess Yingyue's marriage has been settled long ago, and it was given by His Majesty, so it is safe and secure. One or two things to talk about, and the big Feng'an City has never been short of things to talk about. After a while, someone else will bury it silently.

Of course, this is something for later, so I won’t show it here for the time being.

But Xu Jiao passed away drunk and was brought back to Jingfu by Mrs. Zhao, but he didn't show any signs of sober until the eleventh day of the first lunar month, when the sun was three poles high.

This is too drunk, right?When Mrs. Zhao came to see her, she frowned tightly.

However, Lingxue's heart was full of hidden worries. There were some things that Mrs. Zhao didn't know, but she knew.For example, Princess Huiming's attitude towards the princess always makes people feel that there is something wrong, for example, Mrs. Li Wu's inexplicable hostility towards the princess... The princess passed out in Li's mansion, and she still doesn't wake up. Panic.

In the afternoon, when Xu Jiao still showed no signs of waking up, Lingxue couldn't sit still anymore.
