Chapter 127: A Plate of Peanuts

The two glanced at each other, clasped hands, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh at the same time.

By the time the two of them walked out of the tavern, it was almost midnight, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street. Before I knew it, I had spent the whole night in this tavern.

"Brother, you've hung your brother's appetite to the sky!" Alex complained.

Back at the base, Nangong Yu directly invited Alex to his small courtyard, and himself, after instructing his subordinates, went around the base to see if there was anything unusual, this is a routine homework every day. For his companions, he greeted them one by one, and went to see Anna and Massimo by the way, they were still not in the base, although something was wrong, but Nangong Yu thought that they might have something to do in Venice, or that Duke Gallo missed his children, so he left them to stay in Venice for a few more days. After that, he briefly instructed his subordinates to pay attention to patrols, and hurried back.

By the time Nangong Yu returned to the courtyard, Alex had already waited a little and was impatient.

Nangong Yu laughed and said: "Brother, don't worry, I must have a good drink today! However, if you want to drink good wine, you must first calm down, and your heart is impetuous, and the entrance of the peerless wine is also the same as chewing wax. ”

Alex suddenly woke up, his old face was red again, and he also felt embarrassed to be embarrassed, his heart had already been hooked by Nangong Yu, and he was indeed a little impatient at the moment. I couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, how can you know so much when you're young?" I see that instead of looking like a young man in his teens, he looks like an old fox in his sixties and seventies. No... I'm afraid that it is still the hundred-year-old fox who has become a fine, otherwise how can he have such a brilliant achievement. ”

Both laughed at the same time.

After a while, Rosa walked into the room with a few people, each holding a few wooden boxes in their hands, respectfully walked into the room, put it down gently, and then bowed and quietly withdrew. Nangong Yu ordered: "Rosa, you go and get some real appetizers." ”

Rosa said yes and walked out.

Since the wooden boxes were put in, Alex felt that in this small space was suddenly filled with a rich, strange aroma of wine, or elegant, or mellow, and like dusty, and like red dust intoxicated, when a variety of famous wines, the fragrance of fine wine mixed together, but each fragrance is unseen and unheard of, just from the aroma of this wine, it is far better than any kind of famous wine and fine wine he has drunk in the past few decades! Alex just sniffed it, and he already felt refreshed. Seeing that there are six wooden boxes, it can be seen that there are six kinds of good wine, but it is actually a kind of jar.

Thinking that he would be able to taste such an extraordinary supreme wine at once, and that there were as many as six of them at a time, Alex couldn't help but lose his mind with such a calm state of mind, and he kept twisting a few short strands of whiskers under his chin in his hands, and his eyes had already narrowed into a thin slit intoxicated, and from time to time he had to leak the light of expectation.

When the door opened, Rosa walked in with a small jade tray, and in the middle of the tray was a small white jade dish of mutton fat, which contained some round things, the size was only slightly larger than soybeans, and the color was light red, as if there were hundreds of grains.

Alex remembered Nangong Yu's sentence of 'real appetizers', and couldn't help but glance at it curiously, wanting to see what kind of otherworldly thing the real appetizers in the mouth of the young wine country saint in front of him was.

At a glance, Alex couldn't help but open his eyes wide, his mouth widened, and he couldn't close it for a long time, after a long time, Fang looked at Nangong Yu with his mouth open, and pointed to the table with a trembling hand, as if he was stuttering: "Hmm?.... Brother, this... That's what you said...... Really... Drink... Dish?", the voice was full of disbelief.

In the small and delicate dish made of mutton fat white jade, there are nearly 100 grains - peanuts!!

Nangong Yu nodded with a smile, "Not bad!" said it with a straight face, and it seemed to be a matter of course.

Alex was angry.

You took the trouble to invite me to your base, and you invited me to eat peanuts ??! you, do you know that this is only something that civilians eat!!

"Sir seems to be still ...... about wine , hehehe...... Or you can only say that my brother likes to drink, and I can't say that I can drink. Nangong Yu smiled meaningfully.

"Why, I'd like to hear from you. Alex couldn't help but be angry and funny. Lao Tzu has drunk all his life, and you kid actually said that I can't drink! The tone is not as polite as before, and if the answer you said is not satisfactory to me, our brother's friendship will end here!

"But for those who love wine, drinking wine is a different kind of enjoyment, and wine tasting is a kind of supreme realm! Wine has its own sweet and sour life, and wine has its own bitter and spicy world; all kinds of flavors of life can taste different tastes from different wines in the world! Different people, different hearts, from the same fine wine, but can taste completely different tastes. Do you think I'm right?" Nangong Yu began his tirade as he spoke.

Alex frowned in contemplation and nodded slightly.

"The so-called drinking, drinking, and wine tasting, the only thing that the drinkers ask for is wine, good wine! Any dish can make the wine lose its original flavor, and it cannot taste the true meaning of the real wine! But if you just drink dry, you will not only hurt the body, but also deliberately confuse your feelings, so only a little food that does not hurt the original taste of the wine is the best dish to accompany the wine. And this peanut rice, no evil smell, the taste is pure and natural, a light and elegant, it is the top grade of it, with this thing, one will not hurt the wine, and the other will not hurt the body......; That's why my little brother uses this as the best dish to drink!"

Nangong Yu said with a smile, but there seemed to be a trace of remembrance in his eyes. In his previous life, when Nangong Yu was on a mission, he often hid in the dark and needed to be watched, and when it was extremely boring, if it weren't for the wine and this simple peanut as a companion, I am afraid that Nangong Yu would have been tormented by the demons and gone crazy, and he would not be able to talk about the commander of the Jinyi Guard who shocked the world later. From here, it is understandable that this peanut rice is respected as the best appetizer in Nangong Yu's heart. Although his words are quite reasonable, but the appetizers in the world that don't hurt wine or hurt the body are not just peanuts.

Nangong Yu's words were heard in Alex's ears, and he felt that it made sense! I only felt that the young man in front of him was really worthy of being the holy hand of the wine country, and he was really ingenious and different!

"Brother's words are really very reasonable, compared with the brother's knowledge of wine and understanding of wine, the old brother really lived a great age in vain, and he is really just a drunkard who can only drink. Alex was overwhelmed.
