Chai Zhewei listened to his father's words from the side.
His mouth twitched.
Ignoring Chai Shao, he turned to Fang Er.
"Come, brother, this is your family's Drunken Immortal Brew. Glazed goods have been selling well lately, and big brother must thank you properly."
"Come, cheers!"
Fang Er's interest piqued at the mention of business. After finishing his drink, he looked at Chai Zhewei.
"Big brother, I haven't seen the sales yet. Tell me, how's business?"
Chai Zhewei's face lit up with pride at this.
"Brother, you have no idea. Now, people have to pay in advance for glazed goods, and we only deliver them a month later."
"Just think about how good business must be with that alone."
"No one in the Great Tang has business as booming as ours!"
"Last month, we earned over three thousand guan!"
Fang Er was not surprised that business was good.
It was an exclusive business; it would be strange if it weren't.
"Has anyone foolish enough to cause trouble appeared?"
Chai Shao scoffed.
"Cause trouble for the Chai family? Who would dare?"
"Do you think our Emperor uncle is just sitting around doing nothing?"
"Uh, you're not wrong about that!"
In terms of kinship.
Chai Zhewei indeed had to call Li Shimin 'uncle'.
Maternal relatives hold a higher position; this was always true.
Chai Shao said impatiently.
"Why are we talking about this? Let's drink!"
Seeing Chai Shao's demeanor.
Fang Er reached into his robes.
And pulled out a two-jin stainless steel wine flask.
"Here, father-in-law, your son-in-law brought you good wine. Drink this."
Chai Shao's eyes lit up when he saw the flask.
This flask was too exquisite!
The gleaming body of the flask was so bright it almost blinded his old eyes.
He took the flask, but after struggling for a while, he couldn't open the cap.
He looked at Fang Er somewhat awkwardly.
"How do I open this thing?"
Fang Er smiled, took the flask back, unscrewed the cap, and handed it back to him.
Chai Shao took a whiff.
Cough! Cough!
A rich wine aroma, unlike anything he had ever smelled, assailed his nostrils.
Caught off guard, he was directly choked.
He raised the flask and took a large gulp.
Instantly!
His eyes widened, his eyeballs nearly popping out!
Fang Er exclaimed inwardly, "Holy crap!"
"This stuff is nothing compared to Drunken Immortal Brew."
"This flask is filled with seventy-two-degree 'Knock-Down Donkey'!"
"Drunken Immortal Brew is only around forty degrees."
The moment the seventy-two-degree 'Knock-Down Donkey' touched his lips, Chai Shao felt as if he were holding a ball of fire!
On a hot day, being stimulated like this, he instantly started sweating profusely.
But he couldn't embarrass himself in front of his son-in-law and son!
So, he forcefully swallowed the large gulp of wine.
That ball of fire transformed into a line of flame, directly reaching his stomach!
"Ah~~ Oh~~~ Hooo!"
"So good~!"
Fang Er was stunned!
"Your facial expression doesn't look like you're enjoying yourself at all!"
"The wrinkles on your forehead are deep enough to catch flies!"
As the three were drinking, Chai Yue walked in. "Father, big brother."
Chai Shao was still catching his breath and only nodded.
Chai Zhewei pointed to the chair next to Fang Er.
"Sit down and eat."
Chai Yue, blushing, sat down next to Fang Er.
She picked up her chopsticks and served dishes to Chai Shao and Chai Zhewei respectively.
Then she looked at Fang Er, thought for a moment, and served him a piece of chicken.
"Husband, eat your food."
Chai Yue, having just bathed, coupled with her shyness, was exceptionally radiant and captivating.
And the fragrance of the shampoo and body wash.
Drifted directly into Fang Er's nostrils.
Chai Shao finally managed to catch his breath.
He looked at Fang Er.
"Kid, although my daughter is a feast for the eyes, you can't not drink this wine, can you?"
"Come! Cheers!"
Saying this, he picked up the 'Knock-Down Donkey' flask and poured wine for Fang Er.
Fang Er's face turned green.
He couldn't handle this stuff.
"At over seventy degrees, I'll probably be crawling under the table after one bowl."
He quickly waved his hands.
"Father-in-law, this wine is for you. This kid will stick to Drunken Immortal Brew."
"I have important matters to attend to tomorrow, and I can't afford to be delayed."
After speaking, he poured himself a bowl of Drunken Immortal Brew.
With Chai Yue by his side, Fang Er felt a little nervous while eating.
But his heart felt a strange sensation.
Was it a bit sweet?
Is this what love feels like?
I don't understand. Can someone explain it to me?
During the meal, before they had even eaten much of the food, Chai Shao was finally "knocked down" by the 'Knock-Down Donkey'.
After drinking their fill and eating their fill, the servants cleared the banquet.
Chai Shao was carried back to his room.
Chai Zhewei said he had something to do and went out.
Fang Er and Chai Yue were left alone in the front hall.
Fang Er thought for a moment and said to Chai Yue.
"Yue'er, there will be something fun happening at the manor tomorrow. Father will probably be there too."
"Do you want to come along and see?"
Chai Yue asked curiously.
"What fun thing is it? Can Yue'er go?"
Fang Er nodded.
"You can go. You're going to be the young madam of Fang Family Manor, of course you can go."
Chai Yue nodded.
"Alright then, I'll go with Father tomorrow."
Fang Er's gaze fell on the chest he had brought.
"Oh, right, I brought you other gifts too. Let me show you."
Chai Yue looked at Fang Er expectantly as he stood up and walked towards the chest.
There was a transparent jar with a red lid, and a small yellow box.
Fang Er opened the jar and took out a lollipop.
He peeled off the wrapper, on which the system had erased the writing, and approached Chai Yue.
"Here, have some. This is very sweet."
Chai Yue took the lollipop and put it in her mouth.
A taste of preserved plum, sour and sweet, refreshing and mouth-watering.
Then, with a crunch, she bit the lollipop into pieces.
Holding the plastic stick, she said with a muffled voice.
"Mmm, it's so sweet. Are all of these for Yue'er?"
The crunching sound made Fang Er shiver.
"Uh, hehe, yes, all for you."
"Right, finish the candy and rinse your mouth. I have something else for you, also edible."
Saying this, he opened the box and took out a sausage.
It had yellow casing, with aluminum rings at both ends.
Fang Er used a knife to cut off the aluminum rings and then peeled off the casing.
"Would you like to try?"
Chai Yue swallowed the candy in her mouth and took a sip of water to wash away the sweetness.
Then she took the sausage. It looked exquisite and smelled fragrant.
She took a bite.
Salty, savory, fragrant, and springy.
"This is also delicious. Where did you get so many good things, husband? Yue'er has never seen them before."
Fang Er unconsciously scratched his head.
"I made these myself. If you like them, take them all and eat them slowly."
"When you're done, I'll bring you more."
Chai Yue immediately felt very happy.
She looked at Fang Er with a satisfied expression.
"Husband is so good to Yue'er. Thank you, husband."
Saying this, she stood up from her chair and walked over to the chest.
"Is there anything else?"
After speaking, she reached out to open the chest.
Then, she saw a black bear penis.
Her small face turned bright red.
She recognized this item; Chai Shao often brought them home!
"Why is there this thing too?"
Fang Er quickly waved his hands.
"This is for father-in-law. Don't misunderstand."
Chai Yue didn't look at what else was in the chest.
She closed the lid of the chest and chuckled.
"Why are you so nervous? Yue'er didn't say anything out of line."
