Chapter 37: Balsamic Vinegar?

A few people couldn't resist Zhou Li and wanted to give it a try, and even Song Zhuojin was very curious, instigating Sun Haoran to ask for it.

After a while, the little girl who sent out came back: "Miss Xia said that this wine is her third brother's new wine, it is very special, I'm afraid you won't drink it." Spoiled the wine. ”

With just this sentence, Zhou Li jumped up angrily: "I haven't tasted any kind of wine, and I haven't heard anyone say that I can't drink." "The more I want to try this wine.

The seventh brother thought for a while and said, "Since the wine brewed by the third brother of my family, I will ask the third brother to send an altar to your house in the future." ”

The little girl listened and replied: "The slave maid just heard Miss Xia tell my girl that this wine Xia Sanye has only made such a jar, and the others have been spoiled." ”

Zhou Li's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said, "You go and ask Miss Xia for a pot." ”

The little girl hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you talk about this wine first, you can decide." ”

The seventh brother hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, you can tell me, I haven't heard the third brother talk about it." ”

The little girl was very articulate: "Miss Xia said that this wine and vinegar are the same. Traditionally, if this wine is not brewed well, it will become vinegar, but after she opens the altar, this wine smells like vinegar," the little girl paused, glanced at a few people, and then continued: "It also looks like vinegar when it is drunk." ”

Zhou Li looked at Song Zhuojin, and the two of them looked at Xia Yanzhao together.

Xia Yanzhao looked back at Ruhai blankly, and Ruhai stroked his chin blankly. After hesitating for a while, he said, "It turned out to be vinegar." ”

The little girl immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Miss Xia knew that you would say this, she said that people who can drink this wine have their own magic method, which can immediately turn this vinegar taste into the aroma of wine." ”

Xia Yanzhao hurriedly said: "I think let's forget it, I think it's their girl's family playing some tricks." ”

The little girl didn't speak, only pursed her lips and snickered.

Zhou Li was unwilling and asked, "Have you seen Miss Xia and Miss Sun drinking this wine?" ”

The little girl nodded: "The girl tried a few times and couldn't do it, so she said that Miss Xia was a liar." It's Miss Xia who will say that," said the little girl's face with a confused look, and she didn't know how to describe the wine.

In this way, he said, "Turn that, turn that 'wine' into wine." ”

Zhou Li said angrily: "Wine is wine, vinegar is vinegar, what wine becomes vinegar, vinegar becomes wine." But I don't believe it, but go and bring it to me and I'll see. ”

The little girl saluted and turned her head away, but after a while, she came back empty-handed: "Miss Xia said that the wine is very precious, you won't drink it, it's a waste of things." ”

Song Zhuojin also asked the little girl curiously when she heard this: "If you don't know how to drink, you can learn, I don't know what kind of magic method Miss Xia used, have you ever seen it with your own eyes?"

The little girl nodded and said, "But I saw it with my own eyes, Miss Xia poured the wine out of the jar, saying that she was going to rush down from a high place." So, so"

Sun Haoran also looked at the little girl earnestly and asked, "So what?"

"Miss Xia climbed to the rockery and poured wine into the jug from the mountain. And he put the jug on the fire and boiled it, and when it had cooled, he poured it into the cup."

The little girl hung her head and thought about it again, and then continued: "Miss Xia covered the wine cup with wax paper again, and then gently touched the table, and after uncovering the wax paper, the house was full of the smell of wine. ”

The girl drank it, and said that she didn't know how many times better than the plum blossom wine she brewed. ”

The seventh brother was stunned for a long time before he said, "How is this possible. ”

The little girl also nodded and said, "But isn't it, Miss Xia said that the whole world is what Second Master Xia and she can do." also said that this was a recipe that Xia Erye learned from the people of the Western Regions, and only taught her alone. The brothers next to her don't know it, and she also practiced it for a long time. As he spoke, he glanced at Seventh Brother and Ruhai.

Then he said: "This method is biased, you have to drink it right away, otherwise it will turn into vinegar." ”

Zhou Li asked Seventh Brother and Ruhai: "Then who are you Second Master Xia, are you very powerful?"

Ruhai nodded: "When the second uncle was young, he met a wandering Taoist priest and taught him a lot of skills, but he was not allowed to teach the people next to him. Several of our foreign kung fu were taught by the second brother, but the second uncle and the ninth aunt were the best. ”

A few people became more and more curious when they heard this, so they asked the little girl to ask for it again.

Lu Shi also leaned on the beauty couch and listened to Feng's mother say: "You said that this is also strange, this is what a few maids in the girl's room saw with their own eyes." It's obviously balsamic vinegar, but when she knocks it like that, it turns into wine. I have seen a lot of things with my wife, but I have never heard of such a fine wine in the world. ”

Lu Shi was also puzzled, and thought to himself: "I am also well-read, but I have never heard of such wine." ”

Mother Feng said again: "Those young masters are also curious, so they sent someone to ask for it." I heard that Miss Xia asked her to take the whole jar and let them pour it by themselves. When they had fallen over, they had the jar carried back again. ”

In the garden, Sun Haoran asked people to take out a silver wine jug. And because Song Zhuojin had the best archery skills, he climbed to the highest rockery with the big vinegar jar, and in the end it was still crooked a few drops, and then poured the 'wine' into the wine pot steadily. It also made a fire boil the 'wine' inside, and for a while the garden was filled with a strong smell of vinegar.

The seventh brother couldn't help but look back at Ruhai, and when he met Ruhai, he also looked at him pitifully. The two of them glanced at each other quickly, and both hung their heads in silence.

A few people were anxious and couldn't wait for the wine to get cold, so they took ice from the ice cellar and piled it up next to the wine jug, so that the wine could cool down faster. In this way, one person poured a cup, covered it with wax paper as the little girl said, and crackled on the table and touched it. I opened it and smelled it, but it still smelled of vinegar.

When the little maid saw it, she said, "Miss Xia said that it is difficult to give birth to the aroma of wine at the beginning, and if you can come out with the taste of wine, it can be regarded as understanding." ”

Several people picked up their wine glasses and tasted it, well, it was still vinegar.

The little maid looked at their expressions and said, "Miss Xia also said that if you can't do it, bring the wine." said that it took the third master to brew ten altars before such an altar came out, if you knew that you had been so ruined, you would be distressed. ”

A few people naturally refused to listen to it, and tried for a long time, but it still didn't work, but they drank a stomach of balsamic vinegar.

Song Zhuojin said: "Isn't it the sister of the Xia family joking with us. ”

The seventh brother hurriedly said: "The housesister is so naughty, I think she is also playing with us." Let's stop drinking. ”

Zhou Li didn't believe Brother Qi, and said to Sun Haoran: "It's better to let the girl in your house go over and have a look." ”

Sun Haoran was right to think about it, so he sent Yuhe, the most secure girl in his room.

After a while, he came back and said, "But I saw it with my own eyes, that's it," he said, picked up the wine cup in front of Sun Haoran and put it on the table, "When you open it, you can smell the aroma of wine, and the slave maid has drunk it, and it is indeed fine wine." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the handkerchief in his hand and said, "This is to spill it while a few girls are not paying attention." ”

Several people took turns to smell the veil, and sure enough, it was the smell of wine.

The little servants who were waiting next to them saw a few sons and brothers, taking turns to hold the handkerchief and sniff vigorously, and they all turned their heads to hold back a smile. But I don't know what kind of method this Xia girl has done.

So even Sun Haoran was not reconciled, after all, this big girl was the most loyal and would not lie to him. A few people tried again, and after a while, a pot of wine was exhausted. went to ask Xiaoyu again, but Xiaoyu refused to give it alive or dead, and said that they had ruined all the wine.

A few boys are young and vigorous, where can they stand it, Sun Haoran said: "Since it is for my sister, I will go and ask my sister-in-law for it." It's such a big jar, let's drink it slowly, I don't believe it. ”

Sure enough, Sun Wanyin was afraid of her brother, so she obediently sent the entire jar over. I heard that Miss Xia was so angry that she said that there is a brother who does this in this world? Miss Sun thought very simply, although this wine is delicious, but if Xiaoyu is not there, she can't drink it. It's better to let my brother try it, if it is done, if you want to drink it in the future, you will ask Xiaoyu for it, and it will be inconvenient for your brother to get it.

So, the brothers worked hard in the afternoon to compete with the vinegar in this jar, and finally drank it all and didn't drink the taste of wine.

When Sun Fuyin came back, he sniffed and said, "Did the vinegar guy knock down the vinegar jar? ”

The little maid who was waiting on the side hurriedly learned the events of the day, and said, "It's also strange, that Xia girl can turn that vinegar into wine." Sister Yuhe swore that she had seen it with her own eyes, and she drank the wine herself, saying that it was fragrant and sweet. ”

Zhou Li returned to King Xing's mansion, bowed his head and was still pondering, and before he knew it, he arrived at Princess Xing. Princess Xing was a little unhappy when she saw her absent-mindedness. He also leaned over and asked, "Mother, have you ever drunk that kind of wine, um~~~" while concentrating on the wording.

Princess Xing hurriedly covered her mouth and nose and said, "How much wine have you drunk?" Why did you drink such a thick decanting soup. ”

Zhou Li hurriedly took a few steps back and said, "It's not a decanting soup, it's, it's well, it's it" Zhou Li Ai said after a long time: "Don't talk about this yet, mother, you have drunk that kind of wine that melts from vinegar." ”

Princess Xing frowned at him: "The wine that has been brewed and turned into vinegar?"

"No, no. It's vinegar, it's not, it's wine, but it smells like vinegar, and when you drink it, well, it's vinegar too. ”

Princess Xing looked at Zhou Li with wide eyes.

Zhou Li took a breath, and after a long while, he said, "It's just a shake, a meal, well, that's it" said and gestured on the table next to him. And then it became wine. ”

Princess Xing stared at her son, although her eyes were already at the limit, she still tried very hard to open her eyes a little wider, as if she wanted to penetrate Zhou Li's head and see inside.

Zhou Li didn't seem to see it, stroked his chin and said, "I'll ask my father, he is well-informed, he must have heard of it." Maybe he's drunk it. With that, he left.

Princess Xing looked at her distant son blankly, and hurriedly asked the little girl to come over.

After hearing that the little guy returned to today's incident, he immediately reprimanded with anger on his face: "This is obviously collusion with the Sun family to play your master, and you don't stop it." ”

The little guy said: "It's not true, the young master of the Sun family and the uncle and nephew of the Xia family have drunk a lot, and even the young master of the Song family have drunk too much." ”

Princess Xing stroked her forehead.
