After handing off the liquor to gan’s servant, Shun returned to Laura’s side. Laura bowed towards gan and said, “This one wouldn’t bother the young lady and her friends anymore.” Then she smiled towards gan and headed back towards the house, Shun naturally followed her back.
gan was surprised to see what just happened. They were so of the less influential children of their families, or those who were not that valued by the direct line, thus they didn’t have much experience. They hadn’t experienced this kind of situation before so it’s good that they now knew what they should do.
It took long for gan to respond, she glanced at the closed door then bit her teeth as she turned to the group and said, “Let’go, we’ll head to sweet plum garden.”
The people looked at gan as if they didn’t understand what she just said. In their opinion, they should just leave the courtyard, this was basic courtesy of a noble.
gan glanced at her friends and said, “The gentleman had already given us a bag of wine. We don’t want to disappoint the mister’s good graces either right? So let’s go, let’s head to sweet plum garden.”
When the group heard what Ruyen said, they all thought for a mont then they cheered up and followed gan towards the garden. They couldn’t wait to enjoy the scenery of the garden.
Hearing gan’s group cheering, Zhao Hai smiled and didn’t say anything. He held his cup and took a sip of his tea. Zhao Hai really liked the taste of milk tea, it tastes like Zhao Hai’s most favorite tea. It tastes lighter than dark tea, but since there was milk inside, it feels very good in the mouth. Zhao Hai loved it very much.
Laura looked at Zhao Hai and couldn’t help but smile, “Brother Hai, is it really okay to give those wine to them? Those are 10 jins of strong liquor.”
Zhao Hai showed a faint smiled and said, “Wouldn’t it be better if they drank it? They could advertise it for us.”
Laura’s smile beca brighter, this was because she knew that this wasn’t good advertisent, she clearly knew that Zhao Hai was just pranking them.
gan and her group arrived at the plum garden and they imdiately had their servants prepare the cloth to spread around the small square. Then the charcoal stove was lit and the servants prepared the kettle to warm so wine on the stove. At the sa ti, the table was also filled with several small dishes, but it was clear to those in attendance that these dishes were only ant for decoration, nobody will eat these.
Currently, nobody present was in the mood to enjoy the plum garden. Their interest was preoccupied by the liquor bag on the servant’s hand.
These people weren’t in contact with their clan’s businesses, therefore, most of them simply haven’t seen a beastman liquor bag before. So when the servant presented the leather-made bag, the group beca very curious.
gan knew what they were thinking, She looked at the liquor bag in her servant’s hand and nodded, “This should be a beastman’s milk wine. In seems like we are going to taste a fresh one today, go warm the wine up.”
The servant imdiately complied, then carefully poured the wine to the kettle then placed it on the charcoal stove. gan looked at the liquor bag surprised as she said, “That’s not right. I rember that milk wine should have a creamy color. How can this wine be transparent?”
A young lady at her side also nodded, “Yeah, I used to drink milk wine back at ho. The liquor was milky and looked like goat’s milk. But this one looks like water, are you sure this isn’t water?”
However, it was clear that nobody believed it to be so because soon enough the scent of wine ca out from the kettle. There were several young n who couldn’t help but sniff the wine, one of them said, “This wine is very fragrant, this is the first ti I slled such pleasant fragrance. Now I’m curious as to how it tastes.”
Several people nodded. They also slled the wine and the wine was indeed very fragrant. Currently, there was a strange scene inside the garden’s square, everyone was looking at the kettle and not even sparing attention to the blooming plums around.
Before long, the kettle had ward, then the servant imdiately served each person a cup. The group impatiently drank the liquor, and no matter whether they were n or won, they imdiately coughed continuously, their faces were extrely red.
When the group recovered, the young ladies couldn’t help but placed their wine cups down. They looked at the wine with a bit of fear. However, the young n didn’t let go of their wine, they relished the experience and took small sips of the liquor.
It didn’t matter whether it was strong or not; they couldn’t stop drinking. The taste of the wine was really good. Especially during this winterti where this fragrant warm glass of wine was a very welco beverage.
The young n couldn’t help but drink a couple more cups. When the young ladies saw the n, they eventually overca their hesitation and learned to take sips like the young n. Soon they managed to place a cup of wine on their stomachs.
High alcohol content wines have their own characteristic. After drinking it, the person would feel heat all over their body. After taking her sip, gan could feel her body heating up. Although the weather was cold, the group was already currently sweating.
Another characteristic of wine was that the more you drink, the more you feel like drinking more. The feeling of faintness and dizziness was really amazing.
The servants felt that sothing was wrong. Their young masters and ladies seed to turn into drunkards and kept pouring liquor to their mouths. Soon afterwards, the 10 jins of liquor that Zhao Hai gave eventually ran out. Looking at these young n and won, their faces were very red and their had a very dizzied expressions.
The servants imdiately escorted them ho. When they reached the courtyard’s door, Shun was already there who just silently looked at them while smiling.
Shun was very clear to the strength of their wine. Not to ntion these young nobles who didn’t drink wine on their own, even old drunkards in the continent probably would also get drunk from drinking this much wine. The degree of that wine isn’t sothing to joke about.
At this ti, Shue arrived and looked at Shun, “What’s this?”
Shun smiled, “They’re drunk, it’s young master’s advertising plan. When these people co ho, they should beco the best type of advertisent for the wine.” Then the two of them revealed a sly grin.
Early next morning, gan opened her eyes and looked around for a while and saw that she was in her room. She stood up but couldn’t help but stagger. She sat up and was puzzled, worn in her body were her sleeping clothes, this was normal but she felt that sothing was wrong.
While she was puzzled, she suddenly saw a person lying underneath her bed. This was her own maid. The maid wore a neat dress and had also fallen asleep.
gan suddenly felt her mouth turn dry, she nudged her maid and said, “Little May, Little May. Give water.”
Little May was naturally the girl who was sleeping just below her bed. When the girl heard gan’s calls, she imdiately woke up. She happily looked at gan and said, “Miss, you’re awake! Great! Wait a mont, I’ll go bring you so water imdiately.”
The Little May ran up to a table and poured gan a glass of water from a canteen. The canteen was wrapped with leather, so the water inside wasn’t too cold and was very suitable for drinking.
gan drank the water and felt a bit better. She turned to May, “Little May, what happened to ? When did I fall asleep? How co I can’t rember?”
May looked at gan’s appearance, she knew why gan couldn’t rember anything. She quickly responded, “Miss, you really can’t rember? Yesterday, you and Miss Holly along with the others went to plum garden to enjoy yourselves. Then you drank the liquor that Mister Wales gave and got drunk off of it. yesterday , you didn’t eat dinner and imdiately went to sleep.”
gan stared and frowned, she thought for a mont and saw that the mories only looked like an impression. She couldn’t help but nod and say, “The events look very vague, the wine was very strong. I rember Holly drinking a lot along with . I didn’t expect to get drunk. Did father know?”
gan’s father was naturally Smith, gan sowhat feared that the matter was made known to Smith. Although Smith didn’t prevent her from playing with her friends, she didn’t know how he’ll react when he finds out that she got drunk. After all, the teachings of the family were very strict.
Little May didn’t think anything of it and nodded,” He knows. Last night, the Lord was inford. But when he learned that Miss got drunk off the liquor that Mister Wales provided, he didn’t say anything but made you take a good rest.”
gan sa stunned, then she imdiately said, “Co help change clothes, I want to see father.” May complied, then helped gan dress herself up.
At this ti, the family was eating their breakfast, so gan went towards the dining hall. She naturally went to the section where the mbers of the family ate. That was where Smith usually ate.
Calci family had a definite order of rules, if there were no special situations, all of the family mbers should dine inside the dining hall. If soone dared to make false excuses just to avoid having a al with the family, they would be heavily punished.
This rule was to make everyone in the family understand that you are on the sa level when they ate. If you want to eat at a more advanced place, then you’ll have to work hard and provide huge contributions to the family.
gan arrived at the dining hall where they usually ate their als. But when she entered the room, she froze. She didn’t expect to see that her father wasn’t there. Not even a single one of her family was present.
At this ti, a servant could be seen walking towards gan, he imdiately bowed and said, “Young lady, you ca. The Lord said that today the family will be dining at hall number three.”
The servant imdiately continued, “Even though Mister Wales ca yesterday, the lord still wanted to introduce him to the family. Therefore, the Lord invited the family to dine inside dining hall 3.”
gan understood, she nodded and walked towards dining hall 3. Before long, gan arrived outside the dining hall. Outside the hall was a servant, and inside the hall was the sound of people chatting.
When the servant saw gan, he hastily said, “Miss gan!” Then while the servant was opening the door, gan imdiately went inside.
Upon entering the hall, gan saw that his father, mother, and two brothers have already arrived. There was a large table inside the hall, but the group surprisingly sat on the side table commonly used for resting.
gan was City Lord Smith’s only daughter. It was a strict rule in Calci Family that n can only have one wife. And that daughters cannot be used to marry outside for benefit.
This rule ensures the prosperity of the Calci Family. Each adult male inside the family is only allowed to have single wife, so the children will have only a single pair of parents. This made it very unlikely for the family to fragnt.
Moreover, it was also an ironclad rule for the Calci Family that daughters couldn’t be used to marry for benefits. There was a saying inside Calci Family that basically ans, if a family sold their won for benefits, then that family will be deed to fall, this was because if you are forced to marry your family’s won for benefits, then that ant that the n were incompetent.
Under these rules, the male descendants of the Calci family’ beca very outstanding. They took complete obedience to their ancestor’s words, so each of them only took a single wife. Because of this, the family showed its solidarity, it didn’t show any signs of splitting.
Even though City Lord Smith was only a third-in-line successor of the family, he also respected the words of their ancestors. He only married a single wife and had three children, Chris, Diya, and gan.
Since gan was his only daughter, Smith loved her very much. And because of the Calci family’s strict standard of education, gan didn’t turn out to be like Ruyen. In contrast, she was a very gentle and well-mannered young lady. The friends that she had were also very simple friends, this was because all of them knew that she had no influence back at her ho. If you ask her to go back to her family to do sothing, she certainly wouldn’t have any power to do it. So those who ca in contact with gan were also like her, children who didn’t have any influence back at ho. In so sense, they were just people who live there to eat and live simply.
Although the household knew about this, they didn’t give gan a hard ti. Instead, they ensured that gan grew up in a safe environnt.
Additionally, gan’s fa was also very good inside Sky Water City. One couldn’t count the number of poor people inside the City who have received her good graces. This made her have a nickna inside the city, Plum Blossom Princess.
The nickna had two anings. The first was that gan liked plum blossoms, and the other was that she was as pure as a plum, and during the cold winter, she would be there and open up beautifully.
