Chapter 253 Dumplings and wine, the more you drink, the better!
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Da Kui picked up the wine jar and, without saying a word, gulped it down as if drinking from a sweet spring.
Who would have thought that this wine was so strong? In an instant, a hot sensation rushed from my throat straight to my lungs.
He choked and coughed violently, his face turning red, and he hurriedly shouted.
"Xia, what kind of liquor is this? It's too strong!"
Xia Tian couldn't help but laugh when he saw Da Kui's disheveled appearance, and explained.
"I forgot to tell you, this wine has a nickname, it's called 'Knockout Donkey'."
"You must drink it in small sips, especially you women."
"If you drink like that, you'll be lying here after only a sip or two."
Upon hearing this, Da Kui became displeased.
Feeling that Xia Tian had underestimated him, he immediately retorted.
"Engineer Xia, aren't you looking down on me a bit?"
Xia Tian just smiled when she heard this, and didn't argue further.
I simply picked up the glass, took a small sip of wine, and felt the warmth on my throat, which was pleasant and not harsh.
"Don't just stand there, start eating!"
In the summer, he put down his wine glass, picked up his chopsticks, and took the first dumpling into his mouth.
The dumpling skin is smooth and the filling is fresh and fragrant. One bite and the juices burst out, making it incredibly satisfying.
"Eating dumplings!"
He called out to everyone, then pulled Zhao Tianshan over, and together with Feng Cheng, the three of them ate dumplings and drank some wine.
It just goes to show the old saying, "Dumplings and wine, the more you drink, the more you have."
"It would be even better if it had a whole garlic clove!"
Feng Cheng was sucking his teeth as he spoke with great enthusiasm.
It's as if the garlic is already laid out before you, paired with dumplings and fine wine, it would be the ultimate taste of life.
"You need garlic? I'll go get it!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Fugui immediately stood up and went to get the garlic.
But Ji Xiurong, who was sitting to the side, was not happy and quickly said something.
"Sit down! Don't go!"
"By the time you bring the garlic, all the dumplings will be gone!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Fugui looked at Feng Cheng and then at Ji Xiurong.
Looking troubled, he finally decided to sit down.
"Oh my, you're already interfering even before you're with Lao Wei?"
Feng Cheng watched Wei Fugui's actions, his eyes darting around, and he teased her.
"Yeah, yeah! Old Wei, why don't you consider changing to another one?"
"Judging from Comrade Xiurong's appearance, I'm afraid you can't control her?"
Summer joined in the banter, a smile on her face and a hint of teasing in her eyes.
Everyone present listened to Xia Tian and Feng Cheng's banter.
The room erupted in laughter, the hearty sound echoing throughout.
Only Da Kui glared hatefully at Ji Xiurong and Wei Fugui, his heart filled with resentment.
However, he had nowhere to vent his frustration.
Frustrated, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and took another big gulp.
"Mr. Xia, please stop teasing me!"
Wei Fugui, who was usually quiet and reserved, blushed instantly.
I don't know if it was because the liquor I drank was too strong, or because I was too embarrassed by the teasing laughter of everyone.
This little incident quickly passed.
Everyone then immersed themselves in the delicious food and wine, enjoying dumplings in a harmonious atmosphere.
The dumplings on the table were steaming hot and smelled delicious.
Everyone ate and chatted, their laughter filling the air.
Soon, the two large bowls of dumplings were devoured by the group.
"Master Wei, do you still have dumplings?"
Sui Zhichao looked at Wei Fugui with lingering interest, licked his lips, and looked on with anticipation in his eyes.
Apart from Qin Xuemei and Shen Mengyin, everyone else present was from the north.
Northerners have big appetites, so two large bowls of dumplings seem like a lot.
In reality, when divided equally, each person didn't eat much.
"And another one, and another one, I'll go download some more!"
Upon hearing Sui Zhichao's question, Wei Fugui immediately stood up and quickly walked towards the kitchen.
Soon after, another large bowl of dumplings was brought out, steaming hot, which made one's appetite increase.
Apart from a few girls with smaller appetites, the remaining boys, excluding Da Kui, started another "battle".
They devoured a whole bowl of dumplings in no time.
Everyone then patted their bellies with satisfaction, their faces beaming with contentment.
"I haven't felt this good in ages!"
Feng Cheng mumbled, his eyes glazed over, clearly under the influence of alcohol.
At this moment, some people present had already collapsed, such as Da Kui.
He was drinking alone there, feeling depressed; it's no wonder he got drunk.
He was lying on the table, muttering some unintelligible words.
Feng Cheng and Zhao Tianshan were also a bit confused. They put their arms around each other and their speech was somewhat slurred.
Sui Zhichao, Wei Fugui, Dayong, and Erhuang weren't much better off.
They were all drunk and staggering as they walked.
A few girls, however, were able to stay sober because they had drunk less.
They watched the boys' drunken antics with a mixture of amusement and helplessness.
"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should go back and get some rest!"
Xia Tian looked at the four girls and a few boys who were still relatively sober, and spoke up.
By this time, the sky outside the window had darkened, and night was gradually enveloping the earth.
"it is good!"
Several girls supported each other as they walked step by step toward the girls' dormitory.
Their figures appeared somewhat frail in the night, yet they were full of strength.
Zhao Tianshan and Feng Cheng put their arms around each other's shoulders and stood up unsteadily.
Feng Cheng looked at Zhao Tianshan with bleary, drunken eyes and said.
"Come on, Old Zhao, let's go back and keep drinking!"
Zhao Tianshan responded with a slurred speech.
"Okay, let's go!"
As they talked, the two walked toward the dormitory, their steps unsteady, occasionally bumping into each other.
Dayong and Erhuang helped the drunk Wei Fugui walk towards the dormitory.
Wei Fugui mumbled something under his breath, but it was unclear what he was saying.
Xia Tian glanced at Da Kui, who was slumped over the table, and Sui Zhichao, who was sitting on a stool with no one paying attention to him.
He walked over, patted Sui Zhichao on the shoulder, and asked with concern.
"Hey, Sui Zhichao, how are you?"
"Yes, Engineer Xia~"
Upon hearing Xia Tian's voice, Sui Zhichao struggled to open his eyes, his gaze filled with confusion.
He looked around and found that most of the people had left.
"Where are they? Where did everyone go?"
"Everyone else is gone, how can I leave?"
Summer asked.
"can!"
Hearing Xia Tian's words, Sui Zhichao leaned on the table and wobbled as he tried to stand up.
But as soon as I got up, I almost fell.
Xia Tian looked at Sui Zhichao, who was staggering, shook his head helplessly, and walked forward.
He lifted Da Kui, who was lying on the table, up with one hand.
Although Da Kui was burly, he was also quite strong in the summer.
Xia Tian caught up with Sui Zhichao and helped him back to his dormitory.
Along the way, Sui Zhichao staggered and mumbled incoherently.
It took a lot of effort in the summer to get them all settled.
After settling the men in, Xia Tian went to check on the girls' dormitory again, still feeling uneasy.
He knocked gently on the door, and heard girls' voices coming from inside.
Only after confirming that everyone had safely returned to their dormitories did Xia Tian feel relieved enough to go back to the cafeteria.
The canteen was in a mess, with empty wine jars and bowls scattered on the tables.
Looking at the mess, Xia Tian silently began to tidy up.
He first gathered up the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash.
Then I wiped the table clean and finally swept up the trash on the floor.
Thanks to his efforts, the cafeteria gradually returned to cleanliness.
After the excitement, there is quiet.
Looking at the clean and tidy cafeteria in the summer, I can't help but feel a mix of emotions.
