After dinner, You Jia and Ai Ni were discussing the wedding details with the elders in the main hall, while Lu Jia took the others to the side hall.
Lu Jia suggested, "The royal orchestra is performing at nine o'clock, and it's still early. Let's have some drinks to liven things up first."
Tong Airui shook his head. "I don't drink. To avoid spoiling the fun, my wife and I will take a walk outside."
"Brother Airui, I'll have someone guide you," Lu Jia said, ready to call someone.
Tong Airui stopped him. "I won't get lost. You all carry on. We'll come back when the performance begins."
"No need to return here. Just head straight to the garden. That's where the stage is set up."
"Alright." Tong Airui took Yi Luowa's hand and walked out the door.
The two of them wandered slowly, admiring the palace scenery while chatting.
Yi Luowa tilted her head toward Tong Airui. "Honey, is it that you can't drink, or you don't know how to drink?"
