Chapter 248 Drinking
After everyone returned to their rooms to rest, Su Li even strolled around the small building and took pictures of a small barrier to prevent peeping.
After all, that Zhang Tata really loves to peep!
They always appear in various dark corners, watching their target like a venomous snake ready to pounce and bite at any moment.
That's so perverted...
"Ah Li, come up quickly."
Wu Xie's loud, boisterous voice rang out from upstairs. Su Li looked up and saw Wu Xie peeking out of the triangular window on the roof, waving in her direction with a bright smile.
"Coming, coming," Su Li replied, then turned and ran up the stairs.
The stilted houses of the Yao people are different from ordinary houses. The first floor usually only has logs for support, which can be used to raise livestock and store miscellaneous items.
The second floor is a wooden house built of planks, used for living.
Stilted houses are usually one story high and not built too tall. However, the small house they live in now has a triangular area under the eaves on the roof, which is similar to a small attic.
The space wasn't very tall; it was probably used as a storage room. It was probably less than 1.8 meters high. Even with Wuxie's long arms and legs, he had to bend over and stoop inside.
The attic looked very tidy, with everything arranged neatly.
Some seemingly infrequently used miscellaneous items are placed in corners, while some more interesting handicrafts are either hung on the wall or placed on various shaped tables.
When Su Li came up, she saw Wu Xie looking left and right at a wall, as if studying something. There was also a rustling sound coming from a corner, but she didn't know what was making the noise.
Hearing Su Li's footsteps, Wu Xie turned around and waved to Su Li, signaling him to come over quickly.
Before Su Li could respond, the movements in the corner that had been faintly audible became more pronounced, and Su Li seemed to hear a strange meowing sound.
Hmm? There's a cat?
Moreover, this cat is quite musically talented; its meows are melodious and rhythmic, like a theatrical performance.
As Su Li pondered this, she walked up to Wu Xie's side and noticed that on a long bamboo table against the wall covered with various bamboo handicrafts, there was a row of traditional... probably musical instruments.
"What are these?" Su Li asked Wu Xie, whose eyes were bright and innocent, not quite understanding some of the things in the small world.
Wu Xie pointed to two of the objects. "This is a suona, this is a drum, and as for the others..." He scratched his head. "I don't recognize them."
"We'll find out by asking Uncle Gui later."
Su Li nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the things hanging on the wall. Various small animals woven from fine bamboo strips were lifelike and looked exceptionally exquisite.
Wow~~~
So cute~~
"Wow~ Meow~~ So cute~~~" The strange-sounding meow rang out again, and this time Su Li knew who it was.
"Qian Duoduo, what are you doing???"
The rustling sounds in the corner paused for a moment, and a bright red snake with a large fleshy crest crawled out from behind the pile of debris.
The fleshy crown trembled slightly, and inside the slightly open snake mouth, a long, tail-like thing was still wriggling...
First of all, this wriggling thing is absolutely, positively not Qian Duoduo's snake tongue...
Secondly, this thing is still alive...
At last……
"Qian Duoduo, let's break off our friendship for the next two weeks..."
Su Li's calmly uttered such heartless words deeply pierced the heart of a pure-hearted snake.
no way……
He really looked disgusted at the moment; he needed to calm down...
Qian Duoduo's enthusiastically trembling crest stopped, and it tilted its head adorably, letting the thing still wriggling in its mouth slap against its cute snake face...
It's as if it's saying, "How could you say such cold words with your 37-degree mouth?"
Wu Xie was a little embarrassed. He had just put down a lot of money to catch a mouse, and that's when he discovered this little attic that looked just like a bamboo weaving art exhibition hall.
I was so engrossed in admiring the artwork that I forgot about it, and as a result…
Holding up the snake's body, which was bulging from the front half, Wu Xie reached out and stuffed Qian Duoduo into the spirit beast bracelet on his wrist.
Su Li breathed a sigh of relief. A moving rat's tail wriggling inside a snake's mouth was too nerve-wracking; her eyes hurt...
Just then, Black Bear's call for dinner came from downstairs.
The two animals that happily trotted downstairs: Disgusting? Not at all...
Ah Gui prepared a very lavish meal, with the main dish being the local specialty rice noodles, along with several home-style side dishes. Except for the meat from some unknown wild animal, which Su Li didn't like and only took a small bite of, she was completely absorbed in happily showing off her meal.
After slurping a few mouthfuls of rice noodles from the bowl, Su Li casually picked up the cup next to her and took a sip.
Um? ? ? ?
His wide eyes lit up instantly, and he took another sip without making a sound, smacked his lips, and secretly gave a sly smile.
He downed the slightly off-white liquid in the cup in one gulp, his hand already stealthily reaching for the small pot on the corner of the table.
I glanced up at my friends who were engrossed in their meals—a perfect opportunity…
One cup after another, he drank happily, unable to resist wiggling his feet under the table, and squinting his eyes contentedly.
After finishing his noodles, Fatty Wang downed his rice wine in one gulp. He thought it tasted good and was about to refill his cup when he realized he had nothing in his hand. He looked up and saw...
Holy crap... who is that kid who's secretly pouring liquor from someone's little plastic bucket into their little jug?
Raising his elbow, he nudged Wuxie, who was engrossed in eating, and Wuxie looked up in confusion.
Zhang Qiling, Xie Yuchen, and Hei Xiazi had all stopped eating at some point and were quietly watching a certain underage person who was furtively drinking alcohol...
Thinking she had been very discreet, Su Li happily poured herself another glass. As she took a sip, she glanced up casually...
"puff……"
What a beautiful sight of a celestial maiden scattering flowers...
"Cough cough...cough cough..."
Xie Yuchen, his face darkening, lowered the handkerchief he had been using to shield the child's mouth and helped the child catch his breath...
Zhang Qiling silently removed the wine pot and cup from Su Li's hands, ignoring the other party's attempt to persuade him to stay.
As Xie Yuchen wiped her face, Su Li watched helplessly as the small, adorable wine pot was moved to the corner furthest from her, her eyes filled with reluctance...
"Ah Li..." Wu Xie moved closer to Su Li. "How much have you drunk?"
Look at that bowl of rice noodles, it's only half full. They must have been busy drinking.
"It's just a little bit." Su Li watched regretfully as the rare opportunity to drink wine slipped away, raising her hand to make a "just a little bit" gesture.
Wu Xie stared at the small plastic bucket on the ground, which was more than half submerged...
You seem to have some misunderstanding about "a little bit", right?
