Aunt Tian's appearance was not expected by Su Ke, but when she came, Su Ke was not surprised.

Shao Linghang mentioned before that the old marquis is good at carpentry, and the most elegant is to make lanterns. From the skeleton to the paper to the picture, it is all handy. Palace lanterns, yarn lanterns, chandeliers, all kinds of things have been done a lot. On Shao Linghang's fifteenth birthday, the old marquis also lit a lantern river in the pool in the back garden.

Since Aunt Tian was able to kowtow on the steps across the crowd before leaving when the old marquis was buried, Su Ke always felt that Aunt Tian should have a deep affection for the old marquis.

There are no valuable things in the old warehouse, but most of them are furniture lanterns made by the old marquis himself.

Aunt Tian has not been out of the small courtyard for many years, and the two times she is close to it are related to the old warehouse, and Su Ke understands the intention no matter how stupid she is.

Looking at Aunt Tian a few steps away, Su Ke straightened up, bent the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Come and dig up the plum wine that the old marquis buried under the roots of the tree." I don't know if Aunt Tian knows where she is buried? Or did Aunt Tian take the plum wine for herself early as before? ”

Since Aunt Tian is the old lady's dowry, she is now over half a hundred years old. But she doesn't look old, her complexion is fair, she doesn't see many wrinkles on her calm face, and there are a few strands of gray hair on her sideburns, but it doesn't affect her beautiful embryo. The body is slightly thin, and he wears old clothes, which are very old, but very clean and tidy.

The charm is still used in Aunt Tian's body, which is not an exaggeration.

If you have to find something wrong, your voice is a little hoarse.

"I'm digging the wine that Master Hou made for me." She is not so arrogant, but she is neither humble nor arrogant.

Su Ke raised his eyebrows almost invisibly, "Then I wonder if there is any plum wine under this plum forest?" ”

Aunt Tian's eyes flickered a little, avoiding Su Ke's gaze, "No, didn't the fifth young master poach it all when he performed the crown salute." ”

The year of a man's weak crown refers to the age of twenty, and the crown ceremony is a coming-of-age ceremony. But at that time, wasn't Shao Linghang keeping filial piety in Nanjing? Rushed back to drink plum wine for the coming-of-age ceremony? Or dig it up and send it over?

If they were all poached at that time, what did Shao Linghang drink when he returned from fame?

Su Ke looked at Aunt Tian's dodging appearance, and her brain suddenly became dull.

Fifth Young Master? Shao Linghang?

Su Ke blinked, had a bold idea in his mind, and asked tentatively: "But the marquis said that there is still in the merlin, and the lady is unwell and wants to drink two sips to appetize." Master Hou specially asked me to dig it. ”

"Master Hou asked you to come?" Aunt Tian raised her head suddenly, her brows frowned slightly, her lips trembled, and she seemed to be a little incredulous.

Su Ke laughed dryly, "Yes, Master Hou asked me to come." Hou Ye said with certainty that there are still here. ”

Aunt Tian had a smile on her face, as if she had been struggling in her heart for a long time, and turned around silently for a while, "Come with me." ”

Su Ke took a cool breath, if she wasn't sure just now, she was already sure now. Aunt Tian is crazy and her brain is not clear. In her consciousness, the old marquis has not passed away, and Shao Linghang is the fifth young master. In March, the army returned to the court, and the plum wine dug up after Shao Linghang returned home, Aunt Tian thought it was for his weak crown ceremony.

Things are chaotic, and so are the years.

Such Aunt Tian is not crazy, but she has become a demon.

After following Aunt Tian for a while, her vision widened, and when she walked out of Meilin, she could see the small courtyard on the corner of the Hou Mansion. At this time, the door was open, and a mother-in-law in coarse cloth clothes looked at the door, and when she saw Aunt Tian coming back, she greeted her. Seeing Su Ke following behind him, his face froze, and he shook his head at Aunt Tian in a panic.

"Master Hou asked for plum wine, and he sent someone to send someone when he knew that it was gone, didn't he just want me to divide some of it? I gave it. ”

Hearing this, the dumb woman's face was obscure, she hesitated for a while, and glared at Su Ke fiercely.

Su Ke raised the shovel in his hand to show the dumb woman, and helplessly showed that he was not lying, "I did come to look for plum wine, and I happened to meet Aunt Tai." Listening to Aunt Tai's meaning, except here, there is no plum wine anywhere else. ”

The dumb woman couldn't speak, and all the joys, sorrows, and joys were expressed on her face.

It's clear that I still don't believe Su Ke.

Su Ke had no other way to prove himself, and he had already stood in front of the small courtyard, and this opportunity could not be missed. She tried her best to show that she had only come for the plum wine, as if she were innocently looking at the dumb woman.

Fortunately, Aunt Tian was a fool, and she didn't remember who Su Ke was, so she went into the courtyard by herself, turned around and asked Su Ke, "How much do you want?" ”

Su Ke made a heart, "You give me an altar, and if there is any leftover, I will bring it back to you." Since the Hou Ye knows it in his heart, he shouldn't stop it. ”

These words moved Aunt Tian, and she raised her hand and beckoned Su Ke over.

As soon as Su Kefu stepped into the small courtyard, he felt a cold on his body. The courtyard is very small, and although it is located in the direction of north and south, there is nothing else to be found in this courtyard except for a main house in the north, a kitchen in the east, and a well in the southwest corner.

No, there was still something, and the dirty snow was swept out and returned to the corner.

Su Ke followed Aunt Tian into the main house, a small square hall, the Eight Immortals table had lost its paint, a teapot with a cotton sleeve in the tea tray, and three upside-down teacups. Aunt Tian lifted the curtain of the cotton door in the east room, and Su Ke hurriedly followed. The inner room can still only be described as the four walls of the house, a shelf bed, a large kang by the window, a few cages, and only the charcoal basin in the middle of the house remains.

Aunt Tian took out a basket from under the bed of the shelf bed, and there were two wine urns inside, one was well preserved, and the seal of the other had traces of moving.

Lying to be complete, Su Ke didn't want to tell the matter of the small courtyard in the future, so the plum wine must be carried out with a whole jar, so it is easy to say that it was dug up under the roots of the tree. But Aunt Tian was stunned for some reason, and refused to give it alive or dead, and was only willing to give the half of the jar that had been opened to Su Ke.

Su Kehao said that Aunt Tian didn't agree. The mute woman stood by the door, just staring coldly, refusing to help.

In desperation, Su Ke could only use the robbery. But she forgot how much strength Aunt Tian had when she was confused. With this sudden push, Su Ke hit the bed frame directly, and his body fell to the side of the bed again.

The ribs hurt, Su Ke hissed, but when he raised his eyes, there was a delicate palace lamp in the corner of the bed. Only two of the four-sided patterns can be seen, one is painted with a beautiful woman hanging her head and embroidered, and the other is a picture of a beautiful woman with two little dolls flying kites.

Su Ke turned his head suddenly, and the words of questioning had already reached his lips, but when he saw Aunt Tian who was trembling in front of the mottled wall, holding a whole jar of wine, Su Ke's words choked in his throat again.

Aunt Tian whispered: "There is only such an altar left, and it will not be opened until the fifth young master gets married." ”

Su Ke relieved his strength, sat down on the pedal for a while, and got up with the half jar of wine.

"Then I'll take this and go, and if there's any leftover, I'll get it back." Su saw that Aunt Tian nodded, and there seemed to be expectation in her eyes, and Su Ke was relieved. As he was about to leave, Su Ke had an idea and suddenly asked, "Does my aunt have anything for me to bring to Master Hou?" ”

Aunt Tian took two steps forward with a smile, "Sue the Hou Ye, let the fifth young master marry someone you like, don't force him." ”

Perhaps because his current identity was quite embarrassing, Su Ke heard this, and his face turned red. Zhiwu hummed and walked out of the room with the wine jar in his arms. As soon as I walked into the courtyard, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed, and a plain girl walked in, less than twenty years old, with delicate facial features, but her eyes were too powerful.

"Who are you? How did you get in here? ”

This voice was very familiar, and Su Ke remembered it for a moment, and Aunt Tian and the dumb woman came out one after the other. The dumb woman gestured with her hand, but Aunt Tian explained to the girl about the plum wine with a smile.

“…… I'm afraid that someone else sent her over by Master Hou. This last sentence became the finishing touch.

The girl bit her lower lip, looking like she couldn't say what she was suffering from, and said to Su Ke hatefully: "Since you have taken the wine, the girl will leave quickly." "You're welcome.

Su Ke finally remembered who she was, looked at her fixedly, and passed by her with a smile.

The girl was not angry, Su Ke stepped out of the small courtyard with his front foot, and he was about to close the courtyard door with his back foot. Su Ke raised his hand to block it, and through the palm-sized crack in the door, Su Ke grimaced his face and said, "At the door of the old warehouse that day, you were the one who came to find the aunt, right?" ”

The girl glared, and her face instantly darkened a little, "Is the note in the eggplant you?" She said and looked at the wine jar in Su Ke's arms again, "Did you come here to ask for wine on purpose today?" ”

She asked, and she asked, and neither of them answered, but it was no different from answering.

"Don't mess with us." After saying this, the girl slammed the door shut.

Su Ke exhaled twice, feeling indescribably bored in his heart, he always felt that something was about to come out, but it was a little bit worse. She has always been sensitive in this regard, I don't know if she ignored something, as if the whole thing was separated by a layer of window paper, but she couldn't break it.

Passing out of Merlin, Su Ke pondered for a long time about the half jar of wine, squatted down and grabbed a few handfuls of soil and smeared them on the outer edge of the jar and the oiled paper that sealed it. After pondering it again, he simply lifted the oiled paper, poured a little over his body, and then carefully knocked out a few seams in the wine jar with a shovel.

As soon as he made Lisuo, the cow woman who guarded the back corner door appeared out of nowhere.

"I really let the girl dig it."

Su Ke hugged the wine jar and pretended to smile, "It's time for me to get lucky." When I got the old lady's bounty, I came back and invited my mother to drink. ”

Mrs. Niu said no, but her expression showed a bit of reasonableness.

Su Ke didn't care, and hurriedly hugged the cracked wine jar and returned to Xiangju.

Mother Xu didn't expect Su Ke to be so fast, she opened the oil paper seal and smelled it, her face was very happy, "I know that you are a capable person when I see you for the first time, look at this dirty body, go back to your uncle's house to wash, rest for a while by the way, and come back in before the key falls in the evening." ”

Su Ke nodded, "When I dug it, I didn't have a light weight, so I smashed it with a shovel." I look like I'm missing a lot. ”

"It's okay, this wine has been buried for some years, and it's so strong that you can't drink more. Just give the old lady a bite or two. Mother Xu held the wine jar, the wine flowed down from the crack and wet her hands, and looked at it as she spoke.

Su Ke hurriedly took it again, "It's already wet, I'll go change into a guy's outfit, and then bring one to the old lady." ”

Xu's mother went back to the house by herself, and Su Ke went to the ear room where hot water was specially boiled to prepare tea.

Su Keteng found a white porcelain jar, and half a jar of wine was just right to hold. He poured two spoonfuls into the hot hot water bowl with a large spoon, instructed the girl in the ear room not to boil the water dry, and then went to the main house lightly.

The old lady had already woken up, with a sad expression, and was being fed white porridge by Shao Linghang himself.

Mother Xu beckoned Su Ke over, vacated the land for Su Ke, and then said to the old lady word by word: "I asked Su Ke to go to the back garden to dig up some plum wine made by the old marquis, which is the most appetizing." You take two sips and taste it. ”

The old lady couldn't even open her eyelids, but when she heard the plum wine, she opened her eyes in a daze.

"Su Ke has warmed the wine, and the old lady will taste it." Xu's mother is still persuading.

The old lady's eyes rolled slowly, her gaze moved from Mother Xu to Su Ke, and her arm raised towards the wine cup that Su Ke was holding. Su Ke saw what this meant, hurriedly stepped forward, half sat on the edge of the bed, and brought the wine cup to the old lady's mouth.

Who knew that the old lady's hand suddenly raised, and the wine cup instantly toppled over.

Shao Linghang has kung fu after all, so he stretched out his hand to catch Su Ke in an instant, so as not to let Su Ke be splashed with wine.

The old lady sighed, pushed away Xu's mother's support, leaned on Wushuang, who was on the bed, and stared at Su Ke with her eyes, "Where did you get the wine, where did you get it?" ”

Su saw that the momentum was not good, so he squeezed Shao Linghang's hand in a hurry, and then knelt beside the bed.

"I dug it up in the plum grove in the back garden, and I turned over half the roots of the forest to find such an altar. It's just that I lost my hand, and the jar was cracked by me, maybe there was an earthy smell in the wine? ”

It means that the taste of the wine has deteriorated to annoy the old lady, not the crux of the problem, where did it come from.

The old lady did not relent, "What about the rest of the wine?" ”

"In the cupboard of the transept."

Mother Xu heard the sound and knew it, and hurriedly asked people to fetch it. The white porcelain jar was brought to the old lady, and the old lady didn't look at it, but just sniffed it, and the corners of her mouth suddenly brought a sly smile, "You want to come?" ”

Su Ke had a feeling that she had been caught, and no matter how calm she was, she was also a little flustered at this time.

The old lady gasped, looked at Mother Xu beside her, and said, "Give it all to her, drink it all in front of me." ”

"Mother!" Shao Linghang shouted, he didn't understand why the old lady was so angry, Su Ke pinched his hand and asked him not to interfere, he understood, the plum wine that had been brewed for many years was extremely strong, and something would happen if he drank it.

The old lady patted the edge of the bed and said bitterly: "What are you going to do, for her, you want to be angry with me?" ”

Where is this? Shao Linghang was full of confusion, and he had to say something more, his legs sank, and he looked down to see Su Ke's hand tugging at the corner of his robe, and shaking his head with his back to him gently.

It's just that this very small action didn't escape the eyes of the old lady.

The old lady said sharply: "What are you doing, sneaking in front of me." Give her the wine, don't leave until you finish it, I see who dares to stop her! ”

This has come to this, and there must be a result of this.

"The old lady wanted to drink plum wine, but it was my fault that I accidentally broke the wine jar and got the smell of earth, which made the old lady angry. The old lady asked me to drink, and I drank it. Su Ke stretched out his hand to Mother Xu, the white porcelain jar had some weight, and when he took it, his body sank down.

It is said that wine can dispel sorrows and relieve worries, but I haven't drunk it before, but I haven't been able to understand it. Some people say that they don't drink enough, but they can't drink too much in the palace, and they don't have the spare money to buy wine when they leave the palace.

Now that the whole can of wine is in hand, you can immediately experience whether you can eliminate your worries and relieve your worries.

The can to the mouth, there is the fragrance of plums, there is the sweetness of wine, Su Ke took a sip, slightly spicy, and a little sour and a little bitter when it is sweet. Shao Linghang squatted down to stop him, and the jar was in his hand, but Su Ke was like a drunkard who was gluttonous, grabbing the jar hard, and drinking it with his neck up.

His throat was hot, his stomach seemed to be burning, Su Ke was dizzy, and he fainted halfway through drinking.

Before fainting, the jar stood on the carpet of wealth and glory without being crooked......
