Chapter 290 I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan
As the saying goes, "Drink today, for tomorrow we may die," and when drinking, one should drink to one's heart's content. Yinzhuo secretly felt that he hadn't drunk enough wine yet, so how could he easily hand the wine cup to his second brother? Look, the two brothers are now fighting over it, one grabbing and the other dodging, and they've started tearing at it.
When Yinzhuo, a drunkard, gets into trouble, he naturally doesn't hold back. Yinreng struggled with him for a long time, but not only did he fail to snatch the wine cup, he also let Yinzhuo take the opportunity to drink the half cup of wine in it. It's not that Yinreng was really so useless that he couldn't control him, but the biggest reason was that he was afraid that something might happen during the struggle and he might accidentally hurt Yinzhuo.
"Hey Thirteen, Fourteen, you two just ignored what I said, didn't you? I told you two to come and help me out, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and come over here, hold him down, and take him back to rest so we can go back and rest too."
Yinreng was afraid of hurting Yinzuo too badly, and the thirteenth and fourteenth were also afraid. What was originally a battle between two people became even more chaotic with the addition of the thirteenth and fourteenth. Yinzuo and Panshua, Yinreng, the thirteenth and fourteenth were all tied up and had no way to deal with him for a while. Yinti watched as the four of them went from chasing each other to playing hide-and-seek, and his brows were so furrowed that they could almost trap flies. He endured for a while, but finally couldn't hold back and walked over to the group playing hide-and-seek.
"What are you all doing? I told you to arrest him, who told you to play along? Three adults can't handle a drunkard? You're all useless. Stand aside and watch him properly. Sixth Brother, I advise you to stand there and don't move. I'm not your second brother, I don't have his patience. I'll count to three, and you'd better come over here obediently, or else..."
They say alcohol emboldens the timid. Normally, if Yinzhuo heard his elder brother say that, he would have to restrain himself a bit. But the problem is that he drank some alcohol today. There's a saying that goes, "Before drinking, I belong to the world; after drinking, the world belongs to me." Look at him, after a few cups of this Imperial Jade Liquor, he's already trembling.
"Heh, let's see who this is, daring to talk to me like that. Do you know who I am? I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan! Stand still and don't move? Why should I listen to you? Just go over there yourself, what can you do if I don't?"
It's no exaggeration to say that the moment Yinzhuo said those words, everyone's hearts jumped into their throats. Although they knew that Yinti probably wouldn't do anything to Yinzhuo, they still felt a chill for him. Fourteenth Brother glanced at his eldest brother, who was already on the verge of exploding, and then looked at his sixth brother, who was drowsy and clinging to a pillar. Even though he was scared, he had no choice but to step forward and smooth things over for him.
“Um… Big Brother… Although Sixth Brother’s words just now were indeed quite infuriating, we really can’t teach him a lesson. Big Brother, you know, Sixth Brother’s back wound has only just healed, and it’s almost next year. If he gets injured again, every single one of the brothers here today will be in deep trouble. So, Big Brother, we absolutely must stay calm. If you really can’t stay calm, just think of Father…”
Even though Yinti was so angry with Yinzuo that veins were bulging on his forehead and he was gritting his teeth, he immediately fell silent when his biased and protective father was mentioned. As the saying goes, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Yinzuo held the biggest ancestor of their Aisin Gioro family in his hands, which was always useful.
"Alright, for the sake of Father Khan, I won't punish you today. Now, obediently bring me the wine cup, and then have Thirteen and Fourteen take you back to the front yard to rest. Then we'll consider this matter settled."
"Honestly, bring me the wine cup?" Just kidding. What was the point of Yinzhuo's commotion just now? As soon as he heard his elder brother's words, he immediately shook his head like a rattle drum.
"No way, I haven't had enough to drink yet! I don't know if you've ever heard the saying, 'Drinking for a moment is fun, drinking all the time is fun,' and I just want to keep having fun tonight... That's the feeling, absolutely fantastic..."
Look, he's even started singing as he was talking. Although Yinti was furious just now because of Yinzuo's rejection and provocation, he has calmed down now. Hearing Yinzuo's resolute refusal again, he was not angry. Instead, he walked to the dining table and picked up the wine pot.
"You're always having a blast drinking, right? Fine, today I'll risk my life to keep you company and let you drink to your heart's content. Grab your glass and come here, I'll fill it up for you. Today, we'll take turns drinking, one of us will drink, and whoever calls 'stop' first is a coward."
Well, it seems they've really gotten into a fight. If Yinzhuo were sober and saw his elder brother like this, he would probably have already backed down. But right now, he sees himself as Zhao Zilong, who could charge in and out of Cao Cao's million-strong army seven times. How could he back down? Absolutely not.
"Alright, whoever calls a halt first is a grandson. Come on, brother, fill it up."
When Yinreng saw Yinzuo, who had been clinging to the pillar, now swaying towards him with a cup in his hand, his first reaction was to stop him. After all, he had just had a head injury a few days ago, and it was almost the New Year; he didn't want to have a spanking.
“Brother, Xiao Liu is drunk and talking nonsense. Why bother arguing with a drunkard like him? Let's just let it go. If we let him get too carried away, it'll be hard to explain to Father…”
Yinti glanced at Yinreng, whose face was full of worry, raised his hand and pulled him behind him, pointed to Yinzuo, who had already swayed in front of him, and turned to Yinreng.
“There’s nothing to be ashamed of. This kid has been spoiled by Father and you guys. He wanted to drink, right? Since he’s at home anyway, why not let him drink his fill all at once? Once he’s drunk, we can just send someone to take him home to rest. It’s better than this endless struggle with him. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. He’s still my own brother. I can’t possibly force him to drink himself to death.”
The two brothers were willing to hit and be hit, so what could Yinreng do? He simply shrugged and let them be. Besides, Yinreng and the others really couldn't do anything about the drunken Yinzuo. After all, lenient treatment wouldn't work, and they wouldn't dare to take more. Yinti's words were also true: if he was drunk and unconscious at home, they could just carry him back to rest.
Despite Yinti's words that he wouldn't force Yinzuo to drink to death, once the wine started, things were a different story. At first, Yinti poured him cup after cup, but as Yinzuo became unsteady on his feet and wouldn't fall down, he gradually lost patience and simply had a large bowl brought over.
"Wow, I really didn't expect that. Don't let his reputation as a one-cup drinker fool you. Look at him, he's already drunk several jugs of wine and he's still not passed out. Come on, let's change our drinking vessels. I'll make sure you drink to your heart's content tonight."
