Chapter 10 A Brief Banquet(1/2)
"belch!"
Deng Jiaer let out a cute wine burp. Deng Jiaer, who had drunk a lot of wine, now had a flushed face.
"By the way, Alan, why do you always call your husband 'brother'? Are you brother and sister?"
Alan shook his head after hearing this. Alan also drank a lot of wine. She and Deng Jiaer usually didn't drink much, and their drinking capacity was not very good. She was as red-faced as Deng Jiaer now.
"No, we are not brothers and sisters. I just like Cheng very much and I want Cheng to be my older brother, so I call him 'brother' without permission."
"The relationship between Alan and I," Su Cheng added at the side, "should be regarded as that of adopted brother and sister. I have always regarded Alan as my adopted sister."
"Sworn brothers and sisters? What are those?" Deng Jiaer blinked in confusion.
Oops, I almost forgot that there is no concept of "sworn brother" or "sworn sister" in this world. Su Cheng thought to himself.
"To put it simply, people who are not related by blood become brothers and sisters. Although they are not real brothers and sisters by blood, the actual relationship is the same as that of real brothers and sisters. In addition to sworn brothers and sworn sisters, they also have sworn brothers and sisters.
Sister, adopted brother, etc." Su Cheng explained to Deng Jiaer in as simple terms as possible.
"Oh!" Deng Jiaer nodded, "Then I understand. This kind of bond feels great."
"Yes," Alan chuckled, "I also think it's great to have Su Cheng as my adopted brother."
"Speaking of this, sir, can I ask you a question?" Deng Jiaer asked Su Cheng.
Su Cheng took a swig of wine.
"What's the question? Just ask it, I can answer it for you."
"Sir, where are you from? Judging from your appearance, you look a bit like you are from the grasslands of the East, but your facial features are a little different from those of the grassland people."
"its me……"
Su Cheng put down the bottle of wine and raised his head to look at the stars above his head with a look of reminiscence on his face.
"I come from a place so far away that there is basically no way to go back. Please allow me to keep the name of my hometown a secret and its location. I left my hometown when I was 14 and came here. It has been 3 years since I
I haven’t been back for three years.”
"Then sir, why did you leave your hometown and come here when you were 14 years old?"
"Well, I'm just like you. I wanted to make a name for myself, so I left my hometown when I was 14."
Su Cheng lied casually. He himself didn't know why he came to this strange place.
"I didn't expect that your husband is such a heroic person!" Deng Jiaer's eyes were shining with stars, and his tone was full of excitement, "It seems that you and I are really destined to be together! We both wanted to make a name for ourselves when we were only 14 years old.
, and then ran away from home.”
"Be heroic," Su Cheng said in a self-deprecating tone, "but now three years have passed, and I am 17 years old and still have accomplished nothing. I have no special skills. The only thing I am good at is knowing a lot of historical stories about my hometown.
, if this continues, let alone making a name for yourself, it will be a problem how to support myself."
After listening to Su Cheng's words, Deng Jiaer knelt on the ground, supporting the ground with his hands, and his body was filled with an aura called "frustration."
"Sir... I don't have much talent, and I still haven't accomplished anything yet. This is also my pain point. Don't poke my pain point again..."
"Well, now I can only hope that I can be selected to be the art of war teacher of the royal granddaughter. The teacher of the royal children must be very well paid. If I can be selected, then I will not have to worry about my livelihood in the short term.
"Yeah." Su Cheng pointed at Deng Jiaer and Alan, "You two will be adults next year. When you are adults, you can find a job. You should first think of a way not to go hungry and then think of a way to realize your dream.
"
"Cheng! Hurry! Keep drinking!"
Suddenly, Carol's voice came.
Su Cheng turned his head following the voice.
Kyler's face was extremely red, with a silly smile on his face, and he was holding a bottle of truffle in his left and right hands.
"I'm telling you..." Su Cheng rubbed his forehead helplessly, "If you're not a good drinker, don't drink too much!"
Carol's biggest hobby is drinking.
Kyler liked drinking very much. When he lived at Falk's house, he would spend most of his monthly "pocket money" on alcohol.
However, Carol's drinking capacity is very poor!
When converted into earth units, a bottle of Songlang wine is about 700ml, and to Su Cheng, the content of Songlang wine is about the same as Tsingtao beer on Earth.
However, after taking a few sips of Kelol's drink, his face will start to turn red, and he will start to get drunk after drinking half of it.
And when Carole is drunk, his behavior becomes unbearable.
"Wo didn't chase! Didn't chase! No! Chase!"
Kyler couldn't even speak clearly, he screamed like a child and waved his hands randomly.
Kailuoer's appearance now is completely different from his usual look that doesn't like to talk much and is a bit aloof...
"Ah...that's enough..."
In order to prevent the drunk Kai Luo from doing something stupid and hurting himself, Su Cheng hugged Kai Luo and dragged him to his side, letting Kai Luo sit next to him so that he could keep an eye on Kai Luo.
.
...
At the same time, Pendragon lived somewhere in a luxurious mansion.
"Really, what's written here...it's all nonsense!"
Iser crumpled the pieces of paper in his hand into paper balls and threw them on the ground like garbage.
"Father, hasn't the trial been finished yet?"
"It's Alyssa. Not yet. There is one last piece. The 'art of war' these people are talking about is completely nonsense. Some of their remarks and opinions are really ridiculous. I still want to be Ilsa.
Your Highness’s art of war teacher?”
The girl called Alyssa handed a cup of black tea to Isel's hand.
"Father, let's take a rest first and drink some black tea."
"No, there is one last one. I will take a rest after reviewing this last one. I hope this last one will not talk about some ridiculous views."
After saying that, Iser picked up the last "Art of War Experience".
"Hey, this person's handwriting is quite beautiful. There are not many people who can write with such good handwriting." After saying that, Iser started to read it carefully.
"Really, I really don't know what His Majesty the Emperor is thinking," Alyssa complained in a displeased tone, "It's okay to recruit a teacher of military law, but as long as you can't choose from knights with war experience, why bother facing
We are recruiting all over the country. How can civilians know the art of war... hmm? Father?"
Alyssa noticed that her father seemed to be in a daze, staring at the last piece of "art of war" in her hand.
Alyssa called her father several times again, but her father still ignored her and still stared at the "art of war experience" in her hand.
This "art of war experience" seemed like a whirlpool, firmly attracting his father's attention.
Just when Alyssa was about to walk up and pat her father, her father Isel suddenly stood up with a "hoo", which startled Alyssa.
"Wow! Scared, scared me. Father, what's wrong?"
Iser tightly grasped the "Art of War Experience" in his hand and held it high above his head.
"Who wrote this 'Art of War Experience'?!"
...
Su Cheng took a sip of pineapple wine while looking at the stars in the sky.
After chatting for an unknown amount of time and drinking an unknown amount of wine, Alan and Deng Jiaer also managed to fall asleep with the help of their drunkenness. Kailuoer had also fallen asleep long ago.
Let's carry the three of them back to the stable later.
This other world has only the sky, and it is exactly the same as my hometown on Earth.
I don’t know how my parents are doing now.
Can I ever return to Earth?
Without Mr. Falk, do I have the ability to survive in this world?
Can I be chosen to be an Art of War teacher?
…
Su Cheng looked at the stars and had random thoughts.
"Why are you drinking alone here?"
"Huh? Carol? Aren't you asleep?"
"I just woke up. I wanted to get up and have some fresh air to sober up."
Kai Luoer covered his head and walked to Su Cheng's side, then sat down next to Su Cheng.
It seems that Kailuoer has sobered up and is back to his usual aloof appearance. Su Cheng thought to himself.
Carol is one of those people who gets drunk easily, goes crazy easily, and recovers easily.
"Looking at you, are you thinking about your hometown again?"
To be continued...
