The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

"Before I went to Zijing City, every time I slipped out, I would come here nine times out of ten."

Lu Li took Li Yi and took him to his usual seat. "Take a good taste of it later. Although it is fruit wine, it tastes very good."

"My old man and I have known each other for ten years. We first met in Yuehu Lake. At that time, there was a locust plague and famine, and even the bark of the trees was eaten away. In order to find food for his wife and daughter, he plunged into Yuehu Lake."

"It's winter, and people will die soon. I was wandering there, and I immediately threw the tree trunk from the bridge. I was very accurate and knocked him unconscious."

Li Yi blinked twice. His wife knew how to save people...

"Fortunately, there was a lot of movement, which attracted people over. Everyone jumped into the water and lifted the old man up."

"I felt sorry for him. The next day I found his home. There were three people in the house, and only one of them was so hungry that his eyes could roll."

"The old man is a stubborn man and refuses to take freebies no matter what, so I started to fight with him. When he annoyed me, he said that he could make fruit wine. When I tasted it, it was really good."

"He tried to sell wine to pay for food, but the fruits he could pick were limited, and he only brewed half a jar of wine. I saw the opportunity to eat for nothing, so I invested money and became his boss."

Lu Li briefly told Li Yi about her relationship with the old man.

"Do you own this liquor store?"

"It's long gone." Lu Li shook his head, "In just two months, he has doubled his number."

"Brother Hu still makes money. In just two months, he has doubled." Li Yi praised with a smile.

"You've been there for five years, but have you made a name for yourself?" The old man walked over with the wine in hand.

Lu Li kowtowed and sighed, complaining, "It's so easy to get in under the emperor's feet. You can barely make ends meet, and you have to be careful about others smashing the pot."

"The merchants who come and go don't have a fuel-efficient lamp."

"Hey, it's more generous than before. Usually it's only half a plate, but this time it's actually full. It seems like I've made a lot of money."

"Don't even look at how much you can eat." The old man pulled out a stool and sat down, pouring wine for Lu Li.

"Little brother, you can do as you like." The old man pushed another full pot to Li Yi.

"How is it? But the original taste?" Seeing Lu Li drink it, the old man looked at her.

"In a daze, I thought I was back five years ago." Lu Li spoke softly, with memories in his eyes. After a long while, he continued: "Sister Tao is turning 16, has she been married?"

"Do you regret it? I wanted to give it to you before, but you were afraid that she would eat more, so you had to look for it early to reduce my burden."

"Come on, if I really take him away, you don't know where to hide your tears." Lu Li sneered.

Li Yi took a sip of fruit wine silently. It was different when he returned home. People were more casual.

"Think I am you."

"Bring it up again?" Lu Li's words contained threats.

"I know, I'm not crying secretly, water splashed on my face." The old man said hurriedly, his eyes full of misgivings.

"..."

"I'll bribe the county boss later and seal up your liquor store."

"Narrow-minded." The old man scolded with a smile.

After two glasses of wine, Lu Li blushed slightly, "Why didn't you go with Sister Tao to guard the wine shop alone? It's inevitable to be lonely."

"She wanted to take me with her, but after she got married, she couldn't hang around dad anymore. It's not far away. If you want to take a look, you can just walk a few steps. If I stay here, she will have a way out, and you will have a place to sit when you come back. sit."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Give me another half pot, and I'll let you earn more today."

The old man didn't move, and looked at Li Yi carefully.

"Do you look okay?" Lu Li opened her lips in a show-off manner.

"Far worse than you."

Lu Li laughed out loud, then said seriously, "But in my eyes, he is the best in the world."

The corners of Li Yi's mouth moved, and there was tenderness in his eyes.

"Why don't I give you a drink?" The old man shook his head and stood up to get the wine.

Li Yi pressed Lu Li's hand and drank again, keeping it until he was drunk.

"I am happy today because you are here." Lu Li said softly, "Good husband, just obey me."

Li Yi's throat moved. He usually had no resistance to Lu Li, let alone this time. The soft voice made his heart tremble.

Li Yi took his hand away and filled it with her.

"Are you being asked to act recklessly tonight?" Lu Li exhaled in Li Yi's ear, teasing him.

Li Yi almost lost his grip on the wine bottle. Was she teasing him? !

Damn, this fruit wine is very good. He packed up a cart and left.

Just as Li Yi was about to respond, Lu Li had already sat back. She was holding the wine glass and taking a sip. She was just a greedy and ignorant young man.

"Huh? Why is it gone?"

Lu Li shook the wine bottle, his usually wise eyes now dim.

"Where's my wine?" She looked at Li Yi and stretched out her hand, "Give it back." Her pursed red lips showed dissatisfaction.

Li Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and he fucked her lovingly.

Lu Li was happy, holding the wine glass and drinking sip after sip.

"Take it away."

The old man shook his head and looked away. After five years of being out, he still had the same drinking capacity and couldn't tell the difference between water and wine.

Li Yi smiled, said goodbye to the old man, picked up Lu Li and walked out.

"I haven't finished drinking yet."

"Let go." Lu Li pulled Li Yi and muttered, "If you don't let me drink, just wait and I'll ask my second brother to beat you."

Li Yi was greatly amazed by this drunken attitude. No wonder Lu Li had always been dabbling in it.

Seeing the carriage coming, Li Yi picked him up.

Leaning on Li Yi, Lu Li hummed a tune, his voice was very soft, not shouting.

"That sounds good." Li Yi put his arm around Lu Li's waist and looked into her eyes.

Lu Li raised his eyes and showed a smile, which dimmed for a moment, "Li Yi, you can't go back. If father sees it, we will be punished."

"Okay, I won't go back." Li Yi gently stroked her back and coaxed, "I bought a house in Chen County and I won't live in his Lu family."

"Yeah." Lu Li smiled and nodded, then looked at Li Yi pitifully, "But I want to sleep on my own bed. I embroidered the pomegranates on the quilt myself. It will take a while before it will be finished."

Li Yi couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I'll steal it."

"Li Yi, the emperor is weak, and he is sensitive and has low self-esteem. He cannot sit firmly in the country. I am going to Zijing City, and there is a high probability that I will not come back. Remember to water the pomegranates in my courtyard."

Lu Li's thinking was very fast. She stared at Li Yi and explained seriously.

He was indeed drunk, so Li Yi scratched Lu Li's nose and said, "I know you are always thinking about your pomegranate, so you mentioned me."

"Don't bully Chao'er." Lu Li's cheeks bulged.

Li Yi stroked his forehead and lowered his head to kiss her red lips. The touch was as soft as ever, like freshly made tofu.

"Li'er, do you have someone you like?" Li Yi asked bewitchingly, trying to take the opportunity to trick someone out.

Lu Li looked at him, with clear water flowing in her eyes. She raised her lips and smiled mysteriously, "What do you think?"

"..."

"Where can I guess?"

Li Yi helped the sleeping person lie down on the soft cushion and stroked Lu Li's rosy face. The corner of Li Yi's mouth raised slightly. He had really opened his eyes today.
