Drunk people mean what they say
When it was time to eat, Guo Bing looked around and asked, "Where's Huo Cheng?"
"He went to the temple of the Maiden." Di Xingchen said.
"You go and call him back, it's all time to eat." Guo Bing said.
"I'll go." Pei Xu said and stood up.
Yan Zhi is staring at the dishes on the table.
The Mayor's family's food smells good, and even though it's not well-presented, it looks like it's full of color and flavor.
They'd really worked hard on this climb, and he was hungry.
But he looked at the chopsticks on the table, his bamboo chopsticks looked old.
He is really not discriminating or looking down on the countryside people, the matter of cleanliness is really out of his control, he really can't stand it, he was just looking at it, suddenly he saw Di Xingchen took his chopsticks over, and handed him his own chopsticks.
The chopsticks looked much newer, the bamboo chopsticks still white.
He then glanced toward Di Xingchen.
"Our countryside conditions are relatively simple, a home-cooked meal, hospitality is not good." The village chief said smilingly.
Guo Bing said, "That's hearty enough."
There were more than a dozen of them in their party combined, and it took two tables before they could barely sit down.
Niangniang Temple is at the entrance of the village, a bit far from the village headman's house, Pei Xu made a big detour to get there. As we got closer, we saw Huo Cheng sitting alone on the steps in front of the temple.
"Huo."
Huo Cheng looked back.
Pei Xu walks over, the view is very good, the mountain wind gusts, you can see the main valley, Li's village and Zhang's village can be seen vaguely.
"That's nice." Pei Xu said.
He stood there for a while blowing in the wind and said, "Come on, dinner's ready, just waiting for you."
Huo Cheng stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks, Pei Xu glanced back towards the temple, which was in disrepair and looked extraordinarily sacred and solemn, but the inside was clean, and the statue of the god was gentle and compassionate, watching over them.
As they walked back, Huo Cheng suddenly slapped Pei Xu's back. Pei Xu looked back and saw Huo Cheng's gloomy expression, so he asked, "Have you solved your company's problems?"
Huo Cheng said, "Nothing major."
Pei Xu then said, "I told you, the day before yesterday you were consulting about financial management, the company shouldn't have any big problems."
There were many local villagers holding bowls, eating their meals while looking at the two of them with curiosity. With the wind blowing from above, Huo Cheng could smell the faint minty scent of Pei Xu's body. Pei Xu only wore a black T-shirt, his back was high and straight, and his arms were long and white, so just by looking at his back, he knew that he was an expensive and high-quality second generation of rich people.
Di Xingchen They had all taken their seats. When Guo Bing saw the two of them coming into the courtyard, he smiled and asked, "You didn't go to the Niangniang Temple to make a wish, did you?"
The village chief smiled and said, "Did you make a wish? The temple in our village dates back to the Song Dynasty, it's very spiritual, and all the villages around here come to offer incense!"
"Is it so spiritual?" Huo Cheng smiled and said, "Then I'm going to make a wish after dinner later."
There were two empty seats at their table, between the Village Chief and Di Xingchen. Pei Xu sat down next to Di Xingchen, who was sitting next to the Village Chief.
The village chief asked Huo Cheng, "You can drink, can't you?"
Huo Cheng said, "It's okay."
The village chief sniffed and immediately poured him a cup as well.
After pouring for Huo Cheng, the village headman wanted to pour for Pei Xu, but Di Xingchen said, "He can't drink, his capacity for alcohol is too poor, if he drinks, we'll have to carry him down the mountain."
"I'll just drink tea." Pei Xu said with a smile.
Huo Cheng, smiling but not laughing, looked at Yan Zhi again and asked, "Does Yan Zhi not drink either?"
Yan Zhi smiled and said, "I'm a little sick, so I won't drink."
He is now using one less cup if he can.
"Come on, Village Chief, I'll drink with you." Huo Cheng said.
After three rounds of drinking, more words were spoken, and when talking about the occupations of several of them, the village chief looked at Huo Cheng with surprise and said, "That really didn't look like a big boss."
Huo Cheng smiled and said, "A little rough, huh? Unlike the three of them, who look like they're going all the way, I'm going all the way alone."
Huo Cheng drank a lot of wine, the color of the wine on his face is very obvious, after dinner, he was still drinking and chatting with the village chief, Pei Xu saw that the bottle of wine is about to reach the bottom, said: "Huo brother, you drink less, we still have to go down the mountain later."
Huo Cheng said, "Today I met uncle, heart happy, drink more, nothing."
The village chief smiled even more happily at his words, "Have you had enough to drink, not enough, I still have a bottle of Wuliangye hidden at home." With that, he turned to his daughter-in-law and said, "Go, bring me the bottle of Wuliangye I hid."
Guo Bing quickly stopped: "Don't drink, don't drink, I see the sky is going to rain, later we have to go down the mountain, or sleepy on the head."
"What are you afraid of if it rains, we have all the places here for you to sleep." The village chief said.
Huo Cheng was slightly drunk and said with a red face, "In that case, uncle, you keep the Wuliangye, next time I come, I promise to drink it all for you."
Di Xingchen laughed out loud as she listened.
Of the four of them, Huo Cheng is the only one who can mingle with the locals, with his honesty, openness, and the righteousness and bravado that country people love so much.
Huo Cheng, who was too bold today, looked a bit disheveled and sad, even Yan Zhi could see it and sat beside Di Xingchen, slightly closer, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with Huo today?"
"He's having some problems with his company and doesn't seem to be in a good mood." Di Xingchen whispered.
Yan Zhi said, "No wonder."
Pei Xu saw that Huo Cheng had drunk enough and still had about two taels of wine left, so he picked up his glass and poured half of it into his own glass. When Huo Cheng saw this, he reached for his glass, but Pei Xu raised it, "Come on, Village Chief, I'll drink to you."
Huo Cheng had no choice, the three of them finally drank a cup of wine, after drinking wine, Pei Xu immediately poured a bowl of tea for the village head and Huo Cheng. Huo Cheng held the bowl of tea, silently patted Pei Xu's shoulder, sighed, and sat down to smoke with the village chief.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the sunlight could not be seen at all. Guo Bing stood on the stone pier in the yard and looked into the distance, and said worriedly, "Didn't the weather forecast say that it would turn from sunny to cloudy, and how could I see that it wanted to rain."
The village headman's daughter-in-law said, "It rains a lot in our mountains, and the weather forecast is not even accurate."
"Then we have to hurry, if it rains, we'll be stuck on the mountain for days."
Hu Ying also called from their side and asked if they had gone down the mountain yet.
"Shall we go then?" Guo Bing said.
"Can Huo go?" Di Xingchen asked.
Huo Cheng stood up at that, "I'm fine, fine."
Huo Cheng promised to come back next time, but also promised to donate to the small Song Temple, but also to fund the repair of the Niangniang Temple, when leaving, the village headman pulled his hand, it was a passionate reluctance to give up.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, they waved goodbye to the villagers and walked down the mountain with the help of the villagers. When they were far away, Huo Cheng looked back and saw a village of young and old people standing at the Niangniang Temple to see them off, and the little children were innocent and shouting "goodbye, uncles".
"Be careful." Di Xingchen helped Huo Cheng.
Huo Cheng stood firmly, smiled, and said, "When I see them, I think of our village."
"Is your village like this?" Yan Zhi asked.
Huo Cheng said, "It's even more remote than this, but not as high as this village, which got a highway the year before last."
"Huo paid for the road." Guo Bing said loudly from the front.
Di Xingchen said, "If you want to get rich, you should first build a road, and there is no better way than to relocate the whole Xiaosongmiao, the road can't be repaired. It's too much trouble to go up and down, and it traps the elderly and children."
"They already have a relocation policy out here, it's just that a lot of old people in the village don't want to go." Yan Zhi said.
Di Xingchen looked back at the old people up there, and his heart sank, these old people, perhaps for the rest of their lives, will never leave this place. But this place is so poor and remote, I don't know what their future will be like. He looked at the old people and the children, and saw that they were all so excited, their excitement didn't come from the pork, the rice, the cooking oil, the red packets, but because they finally saw fresh faces and fresh things.
"I really want to take you to my old home to see it." Huo Cheng suddenly said.
Di Xingchen froze for a moment and turned his head to look at Huo Cheng, who smiled at him, the smell of alcohol softening his rough and gangly demeanor, and the gentler Huo Cheng looked tired and sentimental instead.
"Maybe we'll all get a chance to visit your old neighborhood in the future." Di Xingchen said.
Blown by the wind on the mountain, the smell of wine on Huo Cheng's body becomes more and more mellow, the following section of the mountain road is very steep, Pei Xu took the initiative to hold Huo Cheng's arm.
Huo Cheng laughed and said, "You'd better not be so nice to me, I'll still be able to hate you through gritted teeth in the future, we can both be love rivals."
The crew next to us just all laughed, and Guo Bing turned around and said, "You guys should always be careful and watch your feet more."
Hu Ying, they're all waiting for them at the entrance of Zhangjia Village.
The group didn't stop and went straight down the hill, only halfway down when the rain fell.
Luckily, it was just a light rain, there was a burst of no burst, until all of them returned to the main road under the mountain, the rain in turn stopped, and the sky is not as dark as before, it is the wind is relatively strong, blowing on the wet clothes, it is quite cold.
"Hurry up and get in the car." Guo Bing said, "Don't catch a cold."
Huo Cheng was the first one to get into the car and collapsed on the seat after he got in. Hu Ying sat down next to him and asked, "How much did you guys drink."
"Pei Xu and Yan Zhi didn't drink, I drank a little, mainly Huo drank a lot." Di Xingchen says, "How was your meal?"
"We ate noodles." Hu Ying said, "I'm not even full."
They were almost back to the accommodation when the rain suddenly fell, still pouring down. Guo Bing kept saying thankfully, "Luckily we went down the mountain early, it was so close."
Huo Cheng opened his eyes when he heard the sound of rain on the car window, and pressed his face against the window to look out in a daze.
Di Xingchen glanced toward him with some concern.
After returning to the place, everyone went to take a shower and change their clothes, after that, it was dark, the rain outside was much lighter, but the night was even darker than usual. The crew didn't prepare any dinner for them tonight, so they had to make it on their own. Di Xingchen went to cook, while Tuan Yihua and the others helped out at the side. Di Xingchen realized that Huo Cheng never showed up, so he asked Pei Xu, "Where's Huo, he didn't come down?"
"He took a shower and went to sleep." Pei Xu said.
"Drunk?" Wen Nuo said.
"I'm so tired today and Huo is carrying so much." Di Xingchen said pursing her lips.
Huo Cheng came down only when dinner was ready.
"Still drinking?" Hu Ying asked Huo Cheng with a smile.
Huo Cheng said, "Drink."
"Don't drink." Di Xingchen said, "Drink more congee."
"I just want to drink today." Huo Cheng asked Hu Ying, "Do you drink, if you do, I'll ask for a bottle at the program."
Hu Ying said, "Drink, a rainy day is perfect for drinking. We can have another drinking night talk!"
"Ask them if they have any red wine!" Tuan Yihua shouted.
Lin Qingning smiled and said, "What's going on here, all want to drink."
"The program also wants us to drink, how good the ratings were for the episode where we drank in South City." Hu Ying said, "Should we play Truth or Dare? It's the third stop."
Previous seasons of Red and Blue Signals, and the third leg of Truth or Dare were all screaming, big climaxes!
"The seven of you can play." Di Xingchen said, "Truth is too exciting, I can't stand it."
Hu Ying smiled at that.
Not long after, Huo Cheng came over with two bottles of wine, one white and one red.
"I didn't make any downers, so everyone will have to make do." Di Xingchen said.
Huo Cheng unscrewed the cap and asked, "Is there anyone who doesn't drink?"
"Let's all have some, it's fun for everyone to drink together." Hu Ying said.
"Does Pei Xu drink?" Huo Cheng asked.
Pei Xu says, "Have a drink."
The program set up a pergola in the courtyard on the first floor, and they ate dinner under the pergola. A bunch of cameras were set up next to the pergola, and with the light from the program, it was not only not cold, but also steaming hot. Huo Cheng said to Wen Nuo next to him, "Switch seats with Pei Xu."
Wen Nuo got up and switched seats with Pei Xu.
The atmosphere was extremely warm, cordial and full of laughter as everyone chatted and drank.
After the meal, the night got deeper and the wind got colder, so Duan Yihua went in and brought a few blankets over, and they wrapped themselves in the blankets and sat next to each other to watch Hu Ying and Huo Cheng drinking. Duan Yihua turned his head to look at the rain outside, the rain seemed to be falling a little heavier, the water dripping from the corner of the pergola had formed a line.
"Is Huo going to drink Pei Xu down today?" Lin Qingning asked with a smile.
When Yihua heard this, she looked back and saw Huo Cheng clinking glasses with Pei Xu.
Pei Xu is full of wine and his neck is red.
Hu Ying said, "Come on, Brother Huo, I'll have a drink with you."
Pei Xu got up to go to the bathroom and stopped by the kitchen on her way back.
Di Xingchen was cooking soup in the kitchen when Pei Xu came in.
Pei Xu was all red, her eyes were a bit dazed, but when she looked at him, she was more straightforward than usual, even a bit colorful and gangly.
"How much did you drink?" Di Xingchen asked.
Pei Xu said, "Estimated ...... two taels? It seems like I can drink more than usual today."
He said walking up behind Di Xingchen and glancing into the pot, "What's cooking?"
"Sweet soup."
"Give me a bowl first."
Di Xingchen says, "It's not cooked yet."
He said, twisting his head to look at Pei Xu, who had her hands in her pants pockets, not leaning over his shoulder, just looking at him and smiling.
"You just drink." Di Xingchen said.
"Brother Huo is in a bad mood, I'll drink with him." Pei Xu said, "I know what's in my heart, I can't get drunk."
Pei Xu went back outside, Di Xingchen turned off the fire and served the sweet soup, and when he came out with the soup, Duan Yihua and Lin Qingning immediately got up and came over to help him.
Bowls of sweet soup for one, bubbling away on the table.
"Drink this cup and stop ah, everyone drink soup." Di Xingchen said.
Huo Cheng drank the last of the wine, and suddenly leaned over, pressed against Pei Xu's forehead, put his neck, and patted his back.
Hu Ying said from the side, "You two should be together."
Wen Nuo and the others laughed, but it was Yan Zhi, looking rather serious, who was staring blankly from his seat.
Huo Cheng let go of Pei Xu and said, "This good brother of mine, seeing that I am in a bad mood, is drinking with me."
He said and laughed, probably because he had drunk too much wine, but his eyes were a little wet, and his laugh was very silent. At that moment, Pei Xu fell on the table.
He's drunk.
He was lying down, his arm was directly on the dish, Wen Nuo and the others were shocked for a moment, and hurriedly helped Pei Xu up, and moved the dish to the side. Pei Xu reached out and said, "It's okay, I'll lie down for a while."
Wen Nuo wiped the soup on Pei Xu's sleeve, Huo Cheng reached out his hand, took the tissue from Wen Nuo's hand, and carefully wiped Pei Xu's sleeve, looking rather sad. Pei Xu suddenly struggled a little hand, Huo Cheng quite domineering said: "Do not move."
Tuan Yihua smiled and pulled the blanket upward, and Lin Qingning rested his head on his shoulder.
The rain outside seemed to lighten up a bit, and finally it all stopped.
After the soup, they both sat very still in their chairs listening to the rain, slightly drunk and damp from the wine.
"You can ask the camera teacher to focus on Pei Xu and Huo Cheng," screenwriter Liu told Guo Bing.
What is good to look at romantically is not always love.
Wen Nuo yawns.
Tuan Yihua also yawned, lifted the thin blanket and said, "Are you guys sleepy? Let's go upstairs."
Everyone got up, except Pei Xu, who was even more drunk than before. Huo Cheng helped Pei Xu up the stairs again, Yan Zhi watched the back of Huo Cheng and Pei Xu from behind, he thought, he would never have such a friendship.
Pei Xu was too drunk to climb up to the top bunk, so Huo Cheng put him on his own bunk, and when he got over his drunkenness, he sat down against the wall.
Because some people had drunk too much, the atmosphere in the room was extraordinarily harmonious and warm, everyone talked and laughed, and washed up in groups. After Di Xingchen finished washing up, he found that Pei Xu had already sat up, but his expression was still a bit confused, while Huo Cheng was directly asleep, making slight snoring noises.
"Are you better?" Di Xingchen asked.
Pei Xu suddenly stood up and said, "I seem to have left something outside."
He drunkenly touched his pockets.
"What is it?" Di Xingchen asked.
Pei Xu, however, did not answer him and walked out drunkenly.
Wen Nuo sits up from the bed and looks at Di Xingchen, who puts on his coat and says, "Looking for something."
He chased him out and went to the stairs, only to see Pei Xu leaning against the wall and smiling at him.
He was standing in the blind spot of the camera.
Pei Xu beckons him over.
Di Xingchen said in a suppressed voice, "What are you doing?"
Before he could reach Pei Xu, he saw Pei Xu fall down towards him, so scared that Di Xingchen rushed up to him in an arrow step, and Pei Xu was hugged by him.
Realizing Pei Xu's trickery, Di Xingchen was about to retreat, but Pei Xu lay on his shoulders, as if she had eaten cartilage, and her hands were honest and didn't even touch him. Di Xingchen held Pei Xu's waist and heard Pei Xu say, "I said I know what I'm doing, but I'm drunk again."
Di Xingchen whispered, "Come on, don't be a pussy."
Pei Xu just laughed, sniffed his neck, very sad and passionate, and said, "Drunk, feeling more in love with you ...... Di Xingchen, Di Xingchen, Di Xingchen."
He murmured his name, his heart hotter than wine.
