Chapter 44: There is a Hop Carving, Named Daughter (3)
Seeing that Wu Lao's ass had not yet sat firmly, Chu Lao's words made him run out without stopping, Fang You's heart was full of doubts, "Chu Lao, what is Wu Lao doing here." ”
"Hehe, this old boy wants to drink good wine, how can he do it without paying some benefits, he went to buy wine and food, do you know what kind of dishes Huadiao goes with is the real delicacy in the world." Speaking of appetizers, Chu Lao's expression seemed to be a little intoxicated.
Fang You and the others both shook their heads, they didn't understand that the flower carving was so perfect, what kind of appetizers needed to be added to make it a delicacy in the world, in Fang You's eyes, this flower carving was even better than the delicious food in the world.
"Hehe, rice wine is generally drunk more by the elderly, the best appetizer for drinking Huadiao wine is crab, crab is cold, and Huadiao wine warms the stomach, the two are matched together, it is perfect, you can taste how the title of this delicious world was obtained, and the storage makes you no longer feel a little interested in the food at home." Chu Lao explained with a smile, such a superb flower carving is enough, plus a little appetizer, it is just the icing on the cake, and it is just a little more enjoyable.
Fang You and Wang Hao often drink some wine together when they have nothing to do, and when they heard that Chu Lao said that they could eat delicious food in the world, they immediately looked forward to it and prepared to have a big meal.
"Old Chu, this small pot of wine shouldn't be enough for us to drink." Wang Hao looked at the small blue and white pot, and said with a bitter face, he used to drink but blew on the bottle, and this small pot was not enough for him to drink alone.
Old Chu raised his head and laughed, "Such a good wine, you should taste it carefully in order to get the taste of it, this pot of wine is enough." ”
Within a few minutes, Wu Lao ran back with a few food bags, "Old Chu, hurry up and put on the plate, we must have a good taste of this superb flower carving today." ”
The plate was quickly served, Wu Lao put all the appetizers in the bag on the plate, more than 20 yellow and shiny hairy crabs were placed on three plates, the volume of each crab was almost the size of an adult's palm, and a peculiar crab fragrance was emitted in the air, which made people can't help but have a big appetite and want a large piece of flowers.
"Old Wu, where did you get such a big hairy crab?" Wang Hao, who has always been in Wuyang and knows about every restaurant, was a little puzzled, he couldn't remember which restaurant had such a big crab, and the fragrance was attractive.
Wu Lao was a little proud, "You don't know this, keep it secret, hehe, don't talk about anything else, let's start." ”
Chu Lao nodded, signaled, and a few people who couldn't bear it anymore pounced directly on the hairy crab, and a hairy crab began to peel the shell.
Eating the yellow crab meat in their hands, and drinking some Huadiao wine from time to time, Fang You and Wang Hao were about to bite off their fingers.
The rich fragrance of Huadiao wine completely removes the heavy fishy smell of hairy crabs, allowing people to fully enjoy the delicious taste of crab meat.
"Old Chu, I have also drunk fifty-year-old Huadiao, but the taste of the wine is not as mellow as the fragrance in this wine bowl, and the whole body is warm after drinking, Chu Lao, how many years old Huadiao is this, where did you get it." After drinking a small bowl, Wu Lao couldn't bear the doubts in his heart, and immediately asked Chu Lao.
Chu Lao unhurriedly put the crab meat in his hand into his mouth, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, his face was even more ruddy, he raised his finger and pointed at Fang You, and said with a smile: "Then you need to ask Xiaoyou, this wine was picked up by him." ”
Fang You was helpless, so he had to repeat what he had just said again, that is, Chu Lao, the person who helped him a lot, would take the Huadiao wine and let Chu Lao try it, and if he changed someone, Fang You would never take out half of it.
"The wine jar of the Qing Dynasty, that is to say, this wine is aged to the Qing Dynasty!" Wu Lao's face was shocked, and his eyes looked at Fang You deadly.
Putting down the wine bowl, Fang You said with confidence: "I can't identify the wine until it reaches the Qing Dynasty, but this jar does conform to the shape characteristics of the Qing Dynasty." ”
"Does this wine still need to be identified, Old Chu, what do you say?" Listening to Fang You's words, Wu Lao smiled with relief.
Chu Lao nodded slightly, his eyes were a little confused, "I'm afraid that only the aged Huadiao wine of the Qing Dynasty can exude such a strong fragrance, when the Lingchuan tribute wine was unearthed, I had the honor to drink a cup, but not as good as the current Huadiao wine, I have seen some historical records about wine culture, during the Qing Dynasty, there was a small workshop in Wuyang that specialized in brewing Shaoxing Huadiao wine, which is said to have been built by a Xijiang person, but because Hong Xiuquan led the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom uprising and attacked Wuyang, it is said that this wine workshop was razed to the ground in the war. ”
"Later, gradually no one knew that Wuyang was actually rich in authentic Shaoxing flower carvings, and no one knew where the ruins of the wine workshop were, and Xiaoyou's jars of wine were probably left at that time."
Listening to Chu Lao's words, Fang You's heart beat violently a few times, and he had a premonition in his heart, the ruins of the Shaoxing Flower Carving Workshop that Chu Lao said were probably the big wine cellars he found more than ten meters underground, and only this legend can explain why Wuyang, which is about a few hundred kilometers away from Shaoxing, has a Qing Dynasty Flower Carving Wine Cellar.
After hesitating for a while, Wu Lao finally nodded and agreed, "Only this explanation can make sense, Xiaoyou is really lucky, you can also find treasures in the old mansion that has been dug up countless times in the Wuyang antique world, and it is also the best Huadiao wine that is different from other antiques, in the future, the greatest luxury in my life will be increased." ”
"Old Wu, what was your biggest luxury before?" Fang You asked with some curiosity, Wu Lao is the president of the Wuyang Antique Association, what else can he hope for.
Wu Lao smiled bitterly and nodded Chu Lao with his chin, "My only extravagant hope before was to be able to see and touch Chu Lao's treasure every day, and now one of my biggest extravagant hopes is to be able to drink Xiaoyou's best Huadiao wine every day." ”
Chu Lao smiled, but he didn't have this kind of worry, Xiao You is equivalent to his apprentice having this relationship, can this Huadiao wine be lacking in the future.
Wu Lao had a sad face, looked at Chu Lao, and then looked at Fang You, the relationship between him and Fang You was only a one-sided friend, he was proud of his identity, and he had no in-depth communication with these two young people who were like children in his eyes, and Chu Lao, if it wasn't for this Yuan Qinghua incident, he and Chu Lao would only have a relationship with antique Tibetan friends.
Tibetan friends can exchange things, but you can't let others give it to you in vain, Fang You, this kid only has a few jars of Huadiao wine, other cultural relics such as porcelain, calligraphy and painting can only be appreciated, appreciate the rich cultural connotation at that time, and this superb aged Huadiao wine is different, it is now in addition to the Lingchuan Tribute Wine that is collected in the National Museum, the only cultural relics that can be drunk.
Unlike ordinary antiques that are only enjoyed spiritually, this Huadiao wine can be enjoyed both mentally and physically, it can be said that it is something that cannot be bought with money, even if Fang You respects Chu Lao's altar, with this old guy's character of slamming the door, he will definitely not sell it to himself.
Now please drink by yourself, I'm afraid I also want to show off.
And Fang You, this kid, has a treasure search mouse and that Jun kiln in exchange for nearly 10 million money, there will be no shortage of money at all, and naturally he will not sell this unavoidable Huadiao wine.
