To say that this Niu Gao now sells firewood as a woodcutter for a living, and because he is good at hunting, he often hunts some wild animals to supplement the family, but he can barely support his mother and wife by selling firewood and hunting, and he can't save much spare money. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

But he is a reckless man who is addicted to alcohol, and when he enters the county to sell firewood on weekdays, he passes by the wine shop and smells the aroma of wine, although some people in the county see Niu Gao down-to-earth and straightforward and invite him to eat wine, but Niu Gao drank wine and swallowed heavy drinks, and after a long time, who would still be willing to break the wealth and invite him?

Xiao Tang took the trick and said to Niu Gao, "I want to invite him to drink a few 'altar' wines", and immediately hooked out the wine worms in Niu Gao's belly. If someone else gave him gold and silk property, most of the honest cows refused to accept it, but if someone said that they wanted to invite him to eat and drink, they would make him scratch his heart and scratch his liver. After Niu Gao hesitated slightly, he secretly said: It's rare that this person has never had a deep friendship with me, and he is willing to invite me to dinner. I have no choice but to repay him with affection, he is willing to invite me, and I have to miss his affection.

Thinking of this, Niu Gao stood up and said, "Since you are on the ground, I will accept your favor!" ”

Xiao Tang beside him Xuanzan and others saw that Niu Gao was so greedy for a cup of good wine, and couldn't help laughing: "You are also interesting, just now Lord Xiao is kind enough to buy your firewood, but you are unwilling, I heard that I want to eat wine, but I am very happy!" But you're leaving, what are you going to do with all this firewood? ”

Niu Gao said impatiently: "They are all fellow villagers in the same county, and they also know that this firewood is from me." If you need it, just ask them to take some, but how much can it cost? ”

Tang Pengxiu on the side listened, his small cherry mouth opened into an O-shape, and his heart explained that he was clearly out to meet for a tryst, you just want to get to know that big man, how can you talk about this and go to drink? "This big villain, stinky guy, didn't want to accompany me out and pulled it down, why did you come out but you have to leave, you are so good-tempered and easy to deal with? You'll invite me next time...... This girl will have to ask you to beg me a few more times before agreeing......"

Xiao Tang turned his head to look at Tang Pengxiu, and said apologetically: "Sister Pengxiu, you and I can meet day and night on this trip to Jingxi, but this Niu Gao strong man doesn't know when he will be able to meet...... This time I neglected my sister, and next time I will make amends. ”

Tang Pengxiu Xiaoyao snorted, although she was a little annoyed in her heart, it can be seen that Xiao Tang's face was apologetic, her heart softened, and she thought again: Okay, since he knows that he is wrong, it's a big deal to ask him to beg me less twice next time......

I don't know how long Niu Gao has been hungry for wine, he led Xiao Tang and others through the two streets, and followed the smell of wine to a restaurant, but listening to the shouts of the drinkers inside, and the shouting of the running hall sounded together, it seemed to be a lively place.

Niu Gao entered the building, the shopkeeper came over to greet him, and the shopkeeper saw that it was Niu Gao, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Niu is so blessed today, and which uncle wants to invite you to dinner?" ”

Niu Gao wiped his mouth and said, "Since you know, why do you still ask so much?" According to the old rules! The shopkeeper forgot his eyes behind Niu Gao and said, "But there are many guest officials who came with Brother Niu this time, where is there enough for only two dishes of meat?" ”

Niu Gao said even more impatiently: "What do you ask? But there is meat that is only sold with wine, and this official will calculate the money with you. ”

The shopkeeper smiled and put the hand towel on his shoulder and said, "Okay! Spread down the vegetables, vegetables, and meat soup according to the wine, and beat the wine for 30 catties as usual! Don't use a small bowl, just a large bowl to sift! ”

Xiao Tang, Guan Sheng, Yang Zhi, Xuanzan, and Hao Siwen were all startled when they heard the words "thirty catties of wine". Although the grain wine, fruit wine, and rice wine in such a season. Most of the alcohol content is around twelve or thirteen degrees, but there is no such way to drink 30 catties of wine first.

As for the wine fairy Li Bai "100 years and 36,000 days, you must pour 300 cups a day", the deceased monarch Chen Houzhu "drink one stone a day" and other sayings are inevitably exaggerated metaphors of some literati, the most famous example of drinking in the Northern Song Dynasty is the same as Ouyang Xiu's wine-loving writer Shi Yannian, he and the righteous Liu Qian tested the amount of wine, and drank in the newly opened restaurant, drinking from morning to night without changing the color.

This Niu Gao is really a master who is not dead when he sees wine, Yang Zhi couldn't help but say when he heard it: "You man is greedy for wine, can't you take a bath with wine?" ”

Niu Gao's face narrowed a little at this time, and he said: "Since you are officials, how much money do you have to pay?" I often only like to eat and drink, but today I never thought that someone came to invite me, this time I will remember, he will return the day. ”

Xiao Tang looked at Niu Gao at this time, and felt that he had a little more gag appearance in the romance commentary, he laughed and said: "I think Brother Niu Gao is a straightforward man, why worry about a few wine money, how can you pay it back?" ”

Niu Gao heard Xiao Tang say this, he saw that Xiao Tang was already a lot more pleasing to the eye, and after a while, when the shopkeeper and the bartender came with the wine jar, Niu Gao said thank you and took the wine bowl and drank it all, which was also very heroic and comfortable.

Master Wen Ruian, a master of martial arts novels, once said: It is a good man who drinks fiercely. A gentleman who doesn't drink alcohol. Those who dare not drink cannot let go and dare not get drunk. Hypocrites who sell drunken pretenses. It's the villain who always wants to get drunk. He always persuades others to drink, and he himself trickles down and doesn't drink, and he is a real villain. It's honest people who don't like to drink. It's a lovely person who always likes to drink....... And Niu Gao's way of drinking is completely like a "cute hero".

Since someone invited him, Niu Gao couldn't snub Xiao Tang and the others. Under the toast of Niu Gao one by one, the wine line was patrolled, and the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi quickly drank into a red-faced beast; Dadao Guan Sheng's face was red, and he was a little more similar to his ancestor's appearance; Xuanzan's eyes were straight, and he began to speak with a big tongue; And Hao Siwen, who had the shallowest amount of alcohol, drank four or five catties, and then turned to lie motionless on the table......

Xiao Tang was also drunk at this time, and although he was slightly drunk, he felt dizzy. Although he was also accustomed to drinking distilled high-grade liquor in later generations, in terms of the body's alcohol absorption capacity now, he poured a few catties of spirits in a short period of time, which also made him very unbearable.

At this time, I heard Niu Gao shouting unsatisfactorily: "Little Er! Twenty pounds more! ”

Yang Zhi and Guan Sheng and others have always looked at each other, among these people, Yang Zhi is doing things in the palace marshal's mansion, and he is cautious on weekdays for fear of losing his manners in front of Shangguan, how dare he drink freely? Although Dadao Guan Sheng likes to drink, the amount of alcohol is average (in the Water Margin, he finally fell off the horse due to drunkenness and died of illness.) Xuanzan is not reused in the Busi Yamen, and Zhijiao Guan Sheng and others are also far away in Pudong, so naturally there are no colleagues and friends who drink together in Beijing...... They only looked at Niu Gao's bold appearance, and they knew that they couldn't drink this one of them together.

The bartender smiled and came to the table with the wine jar in his hand, and poured the two full bowls of wine, Xiao Tang already felt that the wine was a little pungent at this time, and couldn't help frowning. At this time, Niu Gao smiled at him: "I see that you also have some alcohol, which is in line with my heart!" Let's have another drink, how about it? ”

Xiao Tang saw that Niu Gao looked eager to try, it seems that he has no drinking partner on weekdays, but today he regards Xiao Tang as a drinking friend who can compete with him. This is also true, this Niu Gao is addicted to alcohol but swallows a lot of money so much, who can accompany him?

In the Water Margin, the heroes of Liangshan are fine, don't they also drink wine and eat meat in big bowls? The two brothers, Luda and Wu Song, are not here, and I don't know if they can fight with this big drunkard...... Xiao Tang couldn't help but think, at most, it's just a drunken scene, what's the big deal? What's the matter, I have to support the scene for the heroes of Liangshan, don't I?

Thinking of this, Xiao Tang straightened his chest and said proudly: "There are thousands of cups of wine for a confidant, so today I naturally have to sacrifice my life to accompany the strong man, come!" He picked up a bowl of wine and drank it clean. Niu Gao saw that Xiao Tang was drinking neatly and boldly, and he laughed and said, "Happy! Your friend, I've made it over! With that, he took the bowl and drank it dry, and then he poured two large bowls with great eagerness.

After a while, Xiao Tang and Niu Gao have a bowl of you, a bowl of me, and more than a dozen bowls of wine, at this time his mind is already in chaos, Niu Gao has also slightly shown a drunken state at this time, he saw Xiao Tang open, and his heart has become close.

Niu Gao burped again, and he stretched out his thumb to Xiao Tang and praised: "It's rare for me Niu Gao to have such an official as you... You're invited...... I also drank with you to the fullest, but I didn't eat your wine in vain, as long as I got my cow Gao around Lushan County, although the words were! But even if I can help, if I have half a sentence of pushing, I am not a hero! ”

Xiao Tangwu was so drunk that he finally heard what Niu Gao said, and he cheered himself up. Just when he was thinking about his rhetoric to win over Niu Gao, he was in a hurry, his eyes were dark, his head hit the table and bounced a few times, which was broken.......
