Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 737 Toast
At this time, Xu Damao was thinking about how to teach Yu Fengxiang a lesson when he went back, when he suddenly noticed Lin Tieniu's gaze, he turned his head to look at Lin Tieniu hastily.

When he saw Lin Tieniu's playful eyes, he changed his mind, and immediately understood what Lin Tieniu meant, and then felt aggrieved and annoyed instantly.

what is this?
Is this intended to make him bow down to Lin Tieniu as his grandson in front of so many people?
Special brew, this is simply deceiving too much!

Thinking of this, Xu Damao couldn't help feeling an urge to lift the table, but then the confession letter written by himself appeared in his mind, and the anger in his heart instantly seemed to be poured with a large basin of cold water. The whole person is also fully awake.

Afterwards, he forced a smile on his face, stretched out his hand to lift the wine glass, and said to Lin Tieniu with a flattering face: "Director Lin, it is my honor to be able to come to your wedding banquet today, Xu Damao Sansheng. I have to drink something with you."

"As for me, Xu Damao, there is an old rule for toasting, one big and three small, two five ten."

"This big one means that our groom is the biggest. I will toast you and you have a drink. Then according to the rule of one big, three small, two five and ten, I have to drink three glasses."

"Come, I respect you!"

After speaking, he immediately raised his head and drank the wine, then grabbed the glass and poured it for himself, then immediately raised his head and drank it again, drinking three glasses in a row before stopping.

"Okay! Xu Damao, you really enjoy drinking."

Seeing this, Lin Tieniu felt happy, and then praised loudly.

After finishing speaking, he raised his wine glass in a dignified manner and took a sip.

Although he doesn't like Xu Damao very much, and he is happy to see Xu Damao deflated, but no matter what, Director Wang and the two uncles and aunts in the courtyard are present. Let people gossip and ruin your reputation.

Seeing Lin Tieniu drank the wine, Xu Damao finally felt better, and the smile on his face became more natural.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Lin Tieniu immediately filled himself with wine, then raised his glass and said to him: "Xu Damao, since you drink so much fun, as the host, I must make you happy." If you do, then I will toast you nine cups directly!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Tieniu quickly drank the wine in the glass, and then poured the wine non-stop, causing Xu Damao's eyes to twitch suddenly.

Soon, Lin Tieniu drank nine glasses of wine in a row, and then looked at Xu Damao playfully, wanting to see what Xu Damao would do.

If the toasting rules mentioned earlier were followed, then Xu Damao would have to drink 27 glasses of wine in a row.

After drinking, it is estimated that you will not die of drunkenness, but you will also die of discomfort.

But if he doesn't follow the toasting rules mentioned earlier, then Xu Damao will undoubtedly slap himself and lose face at the same time.

For Xu Damao, this is precisely the most unacceptable.

So, what will Xu Damao do?

Not only Lin Tieniu looked forward to the answer to this question, but everyone present also looked at Xu Damao expectantly.

Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Damao's face changed slightly, and the fingers holding the wine glass were constantly exerting force, and finally pinched his knuckles a little white.

This shows how angry he is inside.

However, as the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the roof.

Whether it was the confession written by him himself, or the toasting rules he said before, they have now become a shackle, locking him firmly.

If he didn't want to ruin his future, if he didn't want to ruin his reputation, then he had no other choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and drink those 27 glasses of wine.

Thinking of these, he suddenly felt powerless.

Afterwards, as if he had completely resigned himself to his fate, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he nodded and said in a deep voice, "Okay, then I will risk my life to accompany the groom today, and I must drink happily with you."

After finishing speaking, he held the wine glass in one hand and the wine bottle in the other, and continued to drink.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help showing a look of surprise on their faces, as if they didn't expect Xu Damao would really choose to accompany him to the end.

Lin Tieniu watched Xu Damao keep pouring wine into his mouth, and a look of ridicule flashed in his eyes.

In his opinion, Xu Damao's doing this is undoubtedly the most stupid. Even if it is for his own reputation, he should not force himself to drink knowingly that there is a risk of getting drunk.

You know, a person has only one life, and if one loses one's life, one loses everything.

But Xu Damao obviously didn't understand this truth, and even couldn't adapt it at all.

If Xu Damao could decisively recognize the point of cowardice, speak soft words, and take advantage of the situation to praise Lin Tieniu, then it would be easy to turn down the 27 glasses of wine.

After all, everyone knows that 27 glasses of wine is not a small number, and it is easy to drink something wrong. Even if you choose not to drink, it will only lose a little face at most, and there is no need to worry about such a serious end.

Unfortunately, Xu Damao couldn't see through.

Just as Xu Damao finished his tenth glass of wine and tried his best to suppress the feeling of alcohol gushing from his throat, Yan Bugui was also forcibly suppressing his distressed feeling.

He didn't expect that he just drank an extra glass of wine by taking the opportunity of toasting, and in a blink of an eye, he drank more than one bottle for Xu Damao first.

If he didn't have the confidence and confidence to drink 27 glasses of wine in a row without getting drunk, he would have to stop Xu Damao no matter what.

Now, he can only secretly hope that Xu Damao can get drunk quickly and leave him more wine to drink.

After a while, seeing Xu Damao forcibly finishing the No.12 glass of wine, Lin Tieniu hurriedly waved his hands and persuaded him: "Okay, if you can't drink it, don't drink it, don't drink your body to death! "

Xu Damao's eyes turned red when he heard this, then he suddenly raised his head and poured the No.13 glass of wine into his mouth, trying to win his breath in front of Lin Tieniu.

Seeing Xu Damao like this, everyone couldn't help shaking their heads secretly.

This silly boy, knowing that he can't drink it, why does he insist on drinking it?

Moreover, I didn't hear that Lin Tieniu had already taken the initiative to go down the steps!
If you continue to drink like this, besides ruining your body and making yourself uncomfortable, is there any point in it?

Perhaps, this is called a fan of the authorities!
Except for Lin Tieniu, and Director Wang, a veteran in the officialdom, none of the people present seemed to have thought of the most critical point, that is Xu Damao's own character.

There is a famous saying that character determines destiny.

The main reason why Xu Damao is so stubborn is because his character is originally the kind of one who wants to save face and suffer.

Especially Lin Tieniu as his great enemy, how could he easily let Lin Tieniu underestimate him?
If he bowed his head to Lin Tieniu so easily now, would he still have the face to seek revenge on Lin Tieniu in the future?

From a point of view, I have to say that Xu Damao is still a bit bloody in life.

Just like in the original play, although Xu Damao has never been able to win against Shazhu since he was a child, but every time he was beaten by Shazhu, he did not fully admit his counsel in the end, and even dared to speak harshly to Shazhu.

This point, compared with the current situation, cannot be said to be the same, it is exactly the same.

Soon, Xu Damao forcibly swallowed the drink in his mouth, and then quickly poured himself another glass of wine, trying to finish the wine as soon as possible.

However, before he could fill up the wine, he felt an extremely strong feeling of drinking in his heart, and a very disgusting feeling came from his mind.

Then, before he could react, a sour and smelly mixture of alcohol and water suddenly rose from his throat.

Seeing that he was about to spray out the filth from his throat, a figure suddenly appeared behind him.

"Bang!"

It was too late to say it, but the next moment, Xu Damao opened his mouth and made a sound of wanting to vomit.

However, before the voice came out of his mouth, a hand had already firmly covered his mouth.

Afterwards, his throat surged a few times sharply, and the filth also rushed from his throat to his mouth, and then he was swallowed again.

In this way, he was like a hen who wanted to lay eggs but had someone block the door, which made him suffocate all of a sudden.

Lin Tieniu frowned slightly when he saw Xu Damao's face about to hang up, and then quickly injected a bit of strength into Xu Damao's body, forcibly suppressing the drunkenness in Xu Damao's heart, and at the same time made Xu Damao sober Some.

Afterwards, he slowly let go of his hand, and asked with concern, "Xu Damao, are you okay?"

"I, I, just now."

When Xu Damao heard this, his eyes widened, and then he asked in a daze.

He clearly remembered that he was so drunk that he wanted to vomit just now, and even now he could still feel the stench and disgusting taste in his mouth, why did he suddenly become all right?

"You drank so fast just now that you almost choked. If I hadn't come over in time to help you smooth the wine down, you don't know how much you would have suffered!"

Lin Tieniu frowned, and then explained seriously.

Hearing this explanation, Xu Damao turned his head to look at Lin Tieniu suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong.

Is it possible that I really misremembered?
However, how can I explain the sour smell in my mouth?

Just when Xu Damao was a little puzzled, everyone also reacted, and looked at Lin Tieniu and Xu Damao with astonishment, as if they had seen something incomprehensible.

Some of them even stretched out their hands and rubbed their eyes vigorously, as if wondering if they were dazzled just now. Why did Lin Tieniu run to Xu Damao's side in the blink of an eye?
Moreover, wasn't Xu Damao drinking just now?Why did you suddenly choke?

"Okay, today is the big day for me and Qiaoer, everyone just drink to enjoy themselves, there is no need to be so serious, the remaining dozen glasses of wine, just treat it as your debt, and let's drink when we have a chance later. "

Seeing this, Lin Tieniu didn't care about what everyone was thinking, he reached out and patted Xu Damao's shoulder, and then said with a smile.

After speaking, he took the wine bottle from Xu Damao's hand without any hassle, and immediately wanted to turn around and return to his seat.

Seeing this, Xu Damao hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab Lin Tieniu, and then said with a face of resentment: "Wait a minute, who said I can't drink anymore? Since I said you have one drink, I'll drink three, then I must have it." You have to finish the wine, otherwise if this news gets out, everyone will think that I, Xu Damao, is a softie?"

After speaking, he quickly reached out his hand, trying to get the wine bottle back.

However, as soon as he grabbed the wine bottle, Lin Tieniu firmly controlled his wrist, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move.

"Xu Damao, didn't you just say that I'm the groom's official and I'm the oldest? Then you listen to me now and owe the rest of the wine first!"

Lin Tieniu stared at Xu Damao, and then said with a strong face.

As soon as the words fell, before Xu Damao could say anything, Yan Bugui echoed with a positive face:

"That's right! Xu Damao, if you want me to tell you to listen to Tieniu, don't drink any more, lest someone send you home when you get drunk!"

"Xu Damao, if it doesn't work, don't hold on to it. If you vomit after drinking, isn't that pure disgusting person!"

At this time, Sha Zhu couldn't help but spit out a word of disgust.

Originally, after Xu Damao heard Lin Tieniu and Yan Bugui's words, he wanted to take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey. After all, he still had that sour taste in his mouth, and he really didn't want to be in front of everyone. Let yourself vomit.

However, after hearing Sha Zhu's words, the trace of blood in his heart suddenly emerged again.

"Silly Zhu, it's not up to you whether I, Xu Damao, can do it or not. Even if I drink under the table today, I still have to finish these 27 glasses of wine."

"Director Lin, you've also seen it. If I don't finish the wine, will I still have the face to stay in this courtyard in the future?"

After finishing speaking, Xu Damao violently tried to get the wine bottle back.

Seeing this, Lin Tieniu couldn't help but shook his head secretly, and then let go of his hand, letting Xu Damao take the bottle away.

Since someone actively wants to seek death, he has no interest in forcibly stopping it.

Anyway, with the sliver of strength he injected into Xu Damao's body, no matter how much Xu Damao drank, it was impossible to vomit it out, at most he would just die of drunkenness.

As for the aftereffects of Xu Damao waking up the next day, that's not something he needs to consider.

When Xu Damao saw Lin Tieniu let go of the wine bottle, he immediately felt refreshed and at the same time felt elated.

Then, holding the wine bottle in one hand and the glass in the other, he cast a provocative look at Shazhu, so angry that Shazhu almost wanted to punch him.

Seeing Sha Zhu clenching his fist, Xu Damao's heart tightened slightly, then he quickly looked away and poured himself wine with a serious face.

Soon, under the gaze of everyone, he poured a full glass of wine into his mouth, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
