Chapter 480: with translation of chapter title
Broken Rag Marquis said up to this point, paused, then continued:
"But I'm afraid that after you finish drinking, you'll let out a big shout, ah, and then stumble down..."
Then, turning to Lin Shengli, he smiled and said:
"Then who should I go cry to? You say, isn't that right, Shengli?"
Lin Shengli hadn't even had a chance to speak when he saw the Nine Gates Commander's wine cup smash, "You're talking nonsense, this is......"
Han Chunming hurriedly stood up, grabbed a rag, and wiped the wine spilled on the table before the Nine Gates Commander.
Broken Rag Marquis looked at Lin Shengli and smiled:
"Shengli, what did I just say? This will make you stumble, right?"
Lin Shengli: "Broken Rag Marquis, you don't understand—our old master, when he sees a treasure, examines it more carefully than anyone."
"He definitely won't stumble over it."
The Nine Gates Commander looked at Broken Rag Marquis and asked coldly:
"Just be straightforward—are you taking it or not?"
Broken Rag Marquis: "I'll take it, but first bring out your good stuff so we can feast our eyes."
Nine Gates Commander: "I'm nearly ninety; my little stuff will eventually go to my disciples."
"You'll definitely see it—are you taking it or not?"
Broken Rag Marquis: "Hey hey hey, you old man, you actually have two disciples......"
Han Chunming: "Give it to Shengli Ge, give it to Shengli Ge."
Broken Rag Marquis: "Take it, didn't I say that already? I thank you for inviting me today to drink with Shengli."
"This treasure—I really ought to give it to Shengli today."
In fact, Broken Rag Marquis had already decided: he would give the Ge ware eight-sided cup to Lin Shengli.
Lin Shengli laughed: "Well then... I couldn't possibly refuse."
Han Chunming happily said: "Agreed, come on, let's have one."
He had reason to be happy—if Broken Rag Marquis brings out the treasure, he'll have a way to take it.
The Nine Gates Commander nodded with satisfaction: "Gentlemen, that's how it should be—straightforward, none of this women's nagging."
After everyone clinked glasses and drank, the Nine Gates Commander shouted loudly, "Zao'er!"
Meng Xiaozao hurriedly ran in, looked at Lin Shengli, and asked with a smiling face:
"Grandpa, what's the matter?"
The Nine Gates Commander held a palm-leaf fan, fanning himself as he said:
"Let's do a piece together to liven things up."
Meng Xiao xing: "Then let's do a piece... 'Si Lang Visits His Mother,' huh?"
The Nine Gates Commander waved his hand: "All right......"
After a few minutes, Meng Xiao xing stopped.
The Nine Gates Commander frowned, looked at her, and said:
"Keep singing."
Meng Xiao xing: "Grandpa, it's your turn to sing."
Broken Rag Marquis laughed: "All right, pretending to be clueless again."
Saying that, he raised his wine cup: "Come, Grandpa Nine Gates Commander, let's have one."
The Nine Gates Commander looked at Han Chunming and asked unhurriedly:
"Grandson, what's your name?"
"Who are you calling Nine Gates Commander?"
"Grandpa is now in charge of supervising the wine."
Everyone hearing this burst out laughing.
At that moment, Han Chunming's second brother, Han Chunsheng, walked in.
"Little Five, Little Five, I guessed you'd be here."
Han Chunming asked:
"What's up?"
Han Chunsheng: "Everyone at home is waiting for you."
Han Chunming: "What happened?"
Han Chunsheng: "Something big happened."
"Otherwise, how could I have come here to find you?"
Upon hearing that, Han Chunming hastily told everyone a bit, then followed Han Chunsheng away.
The Nine Gates Commander watched Han Chunming's retreating back and muttered:
"Going back might as well be not going back."
After leaving the Nine Gates Commander's house, Han Chunming asked:
"Did you see my car?"
Han Chunsheng said somewhat impatiently:
"Isn't that nonsense? If I hadn't seen your car, I wouldn't dare go to the old master's place. Come on, let's hurry back."
