Bab 166: Unruly Hand

Seeing everyone finish the rice wine at once, Lu Jueyu felt that she needed to do the same. But when she raised the cup, Li Chenmo touched her hand and said in a low voice, "Drink slowly."

She looked around and saw that everyone had already started eating. She nodded at him and took a sip. The rice wine is well aged and very delicious.

As usual, she scooped a bowl of hot and sour fish soup for Li Chenmo, and then scooped another bowl for herself. When she sat down, she saw a few pieces of braised lean pork in her bowl. She glanced at her husband and smiled. He never spoke out his fondness for her often, but his small actions showed how much he cared for her.

The meal lasted for nearly an hour. After eating, Lu Jueyu gave them a small bottle of rice wine and asked them to take it back. As for Father Li, she gave him a jug that could hold five liters of wine. They sent Father Li to the door, and Li Chenmo said, "Father, I will visit you in a moment."
