Kinoshita Rin's palms were rough... but very warm.

While Qingdeng felt the warmth coming from his forehead, he looked at the old man approaching in surprise.

The other party's eyes and expression have lost their previous strength and "sharpness".

Instead, there is the kindness unique to the elderly.

——She... agreed?

Although his reason has not yet caught up with reality, his ears heard it very clearly: Kinoshita Rin agreed to his marriage to Kinoshita Mai, as well as his idea of ​​"three legal wives"!

——You actually agreed so easily?!

Surprised, Qingto was once again shocked by Kinoshita Rin's efficiency.

Not only did she readily agree to the marriage, but she also helped them choose a suitable wedding day.

This, this...?!

Just now, he called me a "brat" and said, "You want to marry my granddaughter?"

But now, in addition to a 180-degree change in demeanor, even the wedding date has been chosen for them.

This huge contrast directly caused Qingdeng's body to freeze suddenly.

For a moment, he didn't know what expression to put on.

The same person who was at a loss was Kinoshita Mai next to her.

After listening to Qing Deng's heartfelt words just now, she was moved beyond measure.

She didn't even know that Qingdeng originally viewed them this way.

Not only a lover, but also an unparalleled "pillar"!

If it weren't for the presence of Kinoshita Rin and Boss Kiryu, and her shy personality suppressed her surging impulse, she would have simply pounced over and hugged Aomori tightly.

Before she could calm down, Kinoshita Rin bluntly announced, "I agree to your marriage! You can get married on New Year's Eve!"... The rollercoaster-like emotional ups and downs caused Kinoshita Mai's brain to briefly twitch.

Downtime.

Facing the surprised looks from the two of them, Kinoshita Rin tilted her head and asked half-jokingly:

"What? Are all those words I just said in vain?"

"I've made it very clear."

"As long as Ah Wu is my wife and as long as Ah Wu is loved, then I will happily accept her as Ah Wu's husband."

"Since you are already qualified, what reason do I have to disagree?"

By this time, Qingdeng had returned to his serious and resolute attitude.

He nodded vigorously, his tone was extremely precise, and his response was as strong as thunder falling from the sky:

"Miss Kinoshita... No, grandma, please feel free to leave A Wu to me!"

The corners of Kinoshita Lin's mouth extended to both sides, and the look of relief on her cheeks became a little more intense.

To be honest, Qing Deng originally thought that there would be a classic plot of "If you want to marry my granddaughter, you must defeat me first".

He was even ready to fight Kinoshita Rin.

Nowadays, after meeting boss Kiryu, Makimura Yahachi, Otani Seiichiro and many other very capable old men, Aomori no longer judges a person's strength based on age.

He wouldn't be surprised even if the white-haired Kinoshita Rin has the strength to ride a thousand horses.

Rather, if Kinoshita Rin is an extremely powerful and unparalleled fierce woman, it would be more in line with Qingto's preconceptions about her.

The other party seemed to have seen through his thoughts and chuckled a few times "haha".

She changed her name to Qingdeng back to "An Yi":

"Aki, do you think I'm a monster like Kuro?"

As she spoke, she raised her left hand to show Qingdeng her slender, dry arm.

"At my age, I can no longer wield a sword."

"But...that's true."

"Ah Wu is my 'treasure'. It's really uncomfortable to hand it over to you for nothing."

"As expected, I still have to set some 'challenges' for you!"

After Qingdeng heard this, his heart suddenly thumped.

"...Grandma, don't you want to send all the strength of Calabash House to compete with me?"

Kinoshita Rin waved her hand.

"Marriage is the most joyful event in the world. It's so unlucky to be beaten and killed."

"Let's change the challenge to a more civilized form!"

After saying that, she turned to look at Boss Kiryu next to her.

"Kuroro, bring the batch of good products from Lucia that just arrived a while ago."

Boss Kiryu's brows trembled slightly, and the corners of his lips were slightly curved, showing a strange expression that was half a smile but not a smile.

"Lord, are you sure?"

"Of course! Go get it quickly!"

Boss Kiryu said no more, said "yes", stood up, and left the dojo in stride.

The country of Lucia——that is, Lao Maozi.

"Lucia" is the transliteration of "Russia". During the Edo period, the Japanese always called Lao Maozi "Lucia Country".

Speaking of goods related to Lao Maozi... all Qingdeng can think of is leather and spirits.

——Wait, spirits...?

Suddenly, an ominous premonition arose in Qingdeng's heart...

Not long after, Boss Kiryu returned to the dojo - holding a large wooden box in his arms.

"Lord, the goods are all here."

He sat back down and then pushed the large wooden box to Kinoshita Lin's knees.

"Well, thank you for your hard work!"

While Kinoshita Rin opened the wooden box, she mysteriously said to Ayoto:

"An Yi, the things in this box are very rare and good things in the market."

As soon as she finished speaking, the box opened in response - 30 glass bottles were arranged in neat rows and six columns, filling the box to the brim, with transparent liquid flowing in the bottles.

"This is a spirit produced in the country of Lucia, called 'vodka'."

"This wine is not ordinary strong. Nuo wine, sake and the like cannot compare with it."

As she spoke, she picked up a bottle of vodka from the box and threw it to Qingden.

"An Yi, come and have a drink!"

"How can you not drink on your big day?"

"I won't let you go until you let me have all the fun."

Looking at the vodka in his hand, Qingden swallowed hard.

Vodka...this is indeed a good product from Lucia!

Even people who know nothing about alcohol have more or less heard of the name vodka.

Vodka is made from grains or potatoes and is distilled into alcohol of up to 95 degrees, which is then diluted to 40 to 60 degrees with distilled water.

The quality of the wine is crystal clear, colorless and light and refreshing. It makes people feel that it is not sweet, not bitter, not astringent, but only has a flaming stimulation, forming the unique characteristics of vodka.

Because the taste is very good and there is no choking smell, it is easy to drink too much. If you are not careful, you will get drunk, or even get drunk to death.

Most of the common vodkas on the market have a concentration of 40 degrees.

The vodka with the highest alcohol content is the famous "water of life" Polish distilled vodka - its alcohol content is 96 degrees, and it can burn directly if you throw a flame into it, which is better than gasoline.

Qingden didn't understand Russian, so he couldn't tell the degree of alcohol in the bottle of vodka in his hand.

With the blessing of the talents "Drunkard +3" and "Ox's Liver", Qingden's alcohol capacity and liver's ability to tolerate alcohol are very strong.

[Note·Drunkard +3: He drinks better than the average person.]

[Note: Beef liver: excellent liver function]

But...each bottle of wine in the box is almost 700 ml.

He looked at the wine in his hand, and then at the 29 bottles of wine left in the box... To be honest, he didn't think his "Wine Master + 3" and "Cow's Liver" could withstand this challenge.

!

As a last resort, he cautiously suggested:
To be continued...
