Chapter 18 August golden autumn osmanthus fragrance, fairy plain hand-blended wine

The osmanthus tree of the Wang's family in Wuliuzhuang is very famous in the surrounding ten miles and eight towns, it is green and verdant all the year round, it is the day of snow in winter, it is still like this, the snow is pressed green, and the spring is waiting for the winter to open. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info At the beginning, it was relatively short, and it did not attract the attention of outsiders, but after seven years of growth, it was already higher than the wall, and every autumn, the osmanthus tree was full of golden osmanthus flowers, and the fragrance was fragrant, and it was ten miles away.

Wang Rongyue knew that Uncle Wu Gang liked osmanthus very much, every time the osmanthus tree bloomed, he was very happy, she also knew that these osmanthus trees were planted by Uncle Wu Gang, and Uncle Wu Gang was very good to himself, so Wang Rongyue also liked osmanthus very much, and his mother Xue also liked it, and also made hair oil with osmanthus and smeared it on his hair, which could be fragrant for a long time.

The weather has begun to get cooler, and it will be her birthday in a few days, Rongyue remembers very clearly, every time she celebrates her birthday, her mother will make osmanthus cakes for herself to eat, and her two brothers always eat secretly. Wang Rongyue was wearing a long white dress tied around her waist with a yellow belt, and she was cranky while picking up osmanthus flowers on the ground.

The flowers in the garden have been gone, bare only the flower branches with green leaves, and when the autumn wind is tight, Uncle Wu will wrap the flowers and branches with grass, so that these flowers and plants will not be frozen to death in winter, and he thought that he would breathe the flowers when he was a child! Uncle Wu seems to have been bored in the house for several days, and he doesn't know what he is doing.

Wang Rongyue held the skirt in her hand, walked lightly towards the wooden house, leaned on the window, peeked in through a small gap in the curtain, and what caught her eye was a huge eyeball, covered with red bloodshots, Wang Rongyue "Ah! With a loud shout, a hand reached behind his waist, and a delicate small axe slashed through it with a cold light.

"Hahaha!" Wu Gang laughed and lifted the curtain, Rong Yue put away the axe in her hand, she didn't really mean to cut it out. It's not the first time the two have played this kind of game. Rongyue is now getting bolder and bigger, a few days ago, just after dawn in the morning, Rongyue ran to the garden to practice, and saw a huge toad in the garden, Rongyue was the first time to see such a big and yellow toad, two blood-red bulging huge eye bubbles in the eye sockets, and the pimples all over the body, it was really disgusting.

Wang Rongyue was not what Wu Gang exercised, she was no longer a little girl who screamed in fright when she saw the little worm, and her first reaction when she saw the evil appearance of the toad was not to run away, but to take out the axe and cut it, if it wasn't for the fast running of the golden toad, the other leg would have to be explained here. When Wu Gang heard Rongyue's cry come out, Jin Toad had already run away.

Rong Yue chirped to Wu Gang to describe how disgusting the toad was just now, and Wu Gang knew that it was the golden toad in the Moon Palace. Rongyue stood to the place where Jin Toad was staying just now, "It's here, it's so big, it's disgusting!" Rong Yue gestured with her hand to the size of the golden toad, and just after speaking, she felt that something was chopping, and she bent down to pick it up, and it turned out to be a golden money.

Wu Gang laughed when he saw the money, and he couldn't be happy. I said in my heart, "You deserve it, you toad disgusts me every day, this time I was scared by a little girl who lost all the money, you deserve to be unlucky!" "Rongyue, you put the money here first, and when I weave a rope for you, take it on your body, it's still good to be a talisman" Wu Gang paid attention, and went back to the Moon Palace at night, asking for some colorful silk threads from Chang'e, tying the money to Rongyue, and letting Jin Toad suffer a dark loss.

Chang'e especially hates Jin Toad, because of the face of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, it is difficult to drive away, so she smokes incense on her clothes, specifically for Jin Toad, Jin Toad smells very uncomfortable from afar, so she always hides far away. Wu Gang is going to ask for some Chang'e's colorful silk threads for Rongyue to tie the money to his body, if the golden toad is found in case, he must get close to Rongyue and break the silk thread, and then the incense on the silk thread will make the golden toad unlucky, if he can't die, he can't die, and the delamination is indispensable. It's just right not to come back and look for it, just cheap to melt the moon. So Rongyue now has an extra money ornament on her waist.

"Uncle Wu, you've been hiding in the house for days, what are you doing?" Rong Yue saw that Wu Gang had just lifted the curtain and asked. A strong smell of alcohol made Rongyue understand something, "You're secretly drinking, aren't you?" ", Rong Yue asked, covering her mouth and nose. Uncle is making wine, not drinking! Wu Gang beckoned to Rongyue.

There were seven or eight jars of wine in the room, all opened, and the golden osmanthus showers were all over the ground, and the aroma of osmanthus and the rich aroma of wine were mixed together, forming a disgusting taste. "It's so stinky, Uncle Wu, are you sure you're making wine?"

Wu Gang usually watches Chang'e in the Moon Palace with a few maids to make wine, it seems that there is no difficulty, after buying the original wine from Du Kang, he took a few girls to tinker in the kitchen of the Guanghan Palace, and then there is the Moon Palace Osmanthus Brew, the osmanthus brew has a faint osmanthus fragrance when drinking, and it maintains the taste of the wine very well, effectively improves the quality of the wine, even Du Kang is full of praise.

Wu Gang has never entered the main hall of Guanghan Palace, let alone the kitchen, in his opinion, it is nothing more than adding some osmanthus to the wine, soaking the osmanthus into the wine, the wine naturally has the fragrance of osmanthus, and he has never felt that there is any technical content.

Some time ago, I heard that Baihuasha held a new wine conference, but Wu Gang didn't take it seriously, and simply thought that Baihuasha did a good job of gimmicks, so it was sold so hot, nothing more than adding some flowers and fruits to the wine.

When I made my own osmanthus brew, I found that it was not so simple, the osmanthus tree in the garden bloomed this year, and finally reached the maturity period, Wu Gang thought that it could be used to make osmanthus brew, and bought back more than a dozen jars of good wine from the best restaurant in Qiu County with great interest, according to his own meaning, he made six jars of osmanthus brew, and added the osmanthus three days ago, and Wu Gang opened the jar every day to taste the taste of wine.

Wu Gang has drunk osmanthus wine, after coming to Rongyue's house, Baihua Shan also regularly provides Baihua Xian brew to him, so Wu Gang's level of wine tasting is not low, these days to taste his own osmanthus wine, it feels like the taste is not right, today is even more special, the aroma of wine and osmanthus fragrance is mixed with a very uncomfortable taste. Seeing Rongyue ask himself, Wu Gang smiled awkwardly, "Uncle did not do well for the first time, next time, next time, it will be fine."

Wang Rongyue didn't want to accompany Wu Gang here to smell this unpleasant smell of wine, so she ran away by herself, she didn't like wine anyway. Wu Gang took the bad wine to the outside of the house and put it in the corner, a little worried, this wine-making technique seems to be not very easy. Why don't you ask Chang'e? No, Wu Gang shook his head, it's been so many years, and he hasn't said a few words, and there are still three nasty things in the way, if he asks, he will be known by Jade Rabbit and Jin Toad, and I don't know what it will become!

I have avoided being like this, and it is still inevitable that there will be fabricated scandals. Why don't you ask Baihua shy? The manufacturing methods of her Baihua Immortal Brew and Osmanthus Brew are the same in terms of basic principles, and they are still the recipes given to her by Chang'e. Wu Gang thought about it for a long time, but still shook his head.

Honest people are hypocritical, Wu Gang feels that he has taken the benefits of Baihuaxi, and then asks if the recipe of winemaking is a bit excessive, will Baihuaxi doubt that he is jealous of her business? Wu Gang regretted a little that he had just said to Rong Yue, it would be fine next time.

Rongyue, this girl is becoming more and more ghostly now, if she deliberately squeezes herself next time she meets, won't she be able to get off the stage, and if she can't do it, she can only take the immortal brew given by Baihua to make up for it. Ay! This is immortal wine, I have been secretly drinking it, if I let Wang Rongyue know, I will secretly give it to her father to drink in the future, wouldn't it be a big loss. Don't give it, Wu Gang thought about Wang Rongyue's coquettish appearance with his beard, a little toothache!

Chang'e walked to the wide floor-to-ceiling windows of the Guanghan Palace, closed the curtains, leaving only a thin gap, and the cold light came in, without a little heat, it was really lonely as snow! I can't help but think of the experience of dancing on the white jade platform of the Hundred Flowers Palace, it turns out that immortals can also be so enthusiastic. I usually perform in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, and I am used to the faint atmosphere, and it is the first time I have faced such a warm scene, and my heart, which has been as calm as water, beats so fast.

"Sister, what are you doing?" A crisp female voice came from outside the palace, and Chang'e was interrupted from her thoughts. Listening to the voice, I knew that the girl was here, and sure enough, Baihua walked in from the outside. "What's the matter, you're on fire now, I heard that orders are in short supply, and you won't say give me a commission!" Chang'e deliberately joked about Baihua's shyness.

"It's all a trivial matter, our sister still cares about this, I'm here to tell you something today!" Baihua is not afraid of Chang'e. "What's the matter, it can't be the idea of hitting me again, right?" Chang'e lazily sat on Bai Yu's chair, feeling a little embarrassed. Baihua was ashamed to say nothing: "You closed the curtain, it seems that there is another new moon in the mortal world, if you use the mind of dressing up the moon on men, I don't know how many male gods will be fascinated, and it is not impossible to rob the throne of the queen mother!" ”。 Chang'e didn't dare to follow the words of Baihua's shyness, if this was spread out, I don't know how many small shoes the queen mother would wear.

"Wu Gang is not here, are you more lonely?" Baihua looked at Chang'e with a shy smile. "Get out!" Chang'e scolded at Baihua. "I heard that Wu Gang is going to make wine in the world, it seems to be osmanthus brewing!" After Baihua finished speaking, he pointed to the old osmanthus tree outside the house, "Is he the osmanthus he brought down from the Moon Palace, I remember that there is no osmanthus tree in the world."

"What's the matter with me, it's not for me to drink!" Chang'e heard that Wu Gang was going to make wine, and she also thought it was very interesting, this honest man also wanted to do business. "If you don't tell him how to make wine, he can make wine? Let's make vinegar! I believe it! Baihua shyly slashed his finger twice on his face, "I begged you for so long, and I promised to give you the benefits of sharing, and you told me that when I came to Wu Gang, I sent the formula out like this, and said that it doesn't matter, tell me honestly, when will it be good?" ”。

"What nonsense, how can Wu Gang make wine, what you said is right, he can't even brew vinegar!" Chang'e was angry with Baihua and turned her head to ignore Baihuashy. "Yo, I'm really angry, how did I hear that Wu Gang is going to make wine?" Baihua said with a hippie smile on her arms around Chang'e's shoulder. "Who did you listen to?" Chang'e asked coldly.

"Cowherd Dong Yong!" Baihua also let go of Chang'e, walked to the bench where Chang'e usually lay down and rested, got a pillow filled with dried osmanthus flowers, and found a comfortable position to lie down, "If it's someone else, I don't believe it, Dong Yong, an honest man, shouldn't lie?" "Didn't you ask Wu Gang to help you do things? Why, you just threw people into the world? Chang'e glared at Baihua.

"Hey, you don't have to stare at me, who doesn't care? Didn't I send someone to bring him wine every month? Look at your urgency! Baihua glared at Chang'e in shame. Then you don't know that Wu Gang brews? Chang'e sat down in her chair. It is estimated that it is a recent thing, when I go to deliver the wine tomorrow, I will go to see it in person, and it is almost the same, you said that I helped take care of it for so long, is Li Ziqiu also reunited with Rongyue? Baihua asked shyly.

"I don't know how to calculate, you have a lot of relationships now, you won't find someone to calculate?" Chang'e watched the jade rabbit jumping over from the side hall next to her, knowing that this little thing was coming to be a spy again, eavesdropping on her and her best friend's confidant words, and without waiting for the rabbit to come, Chang'e stood up and walked over, kicking the rabbit out of the hall.

"Are you suffering from endocrine disorders now, why are you so ruthless with rabbits?" Baihua watched Chang'e kick the rabbit out, and said, "You used to be okay with the rabbit, what's wrong?" ”。 Chang'e said hatefully: "There is no good thing, last time I overheard me talking to Xinyue Fox, only to know about Tang Seng learning scriptures, and actually carried me to a certain Tang Seng to draw Tang Seng, really, it is really too self-sufficient, if I didn't look at the face of the queen mother and come forward in time, the monkey would have killed her, this time I came to eavesdrop again, really when I was muddy?" ”。

"Okay, don't be angry, if Wu Gang really wants to make wine in the world, do you want to tell him the recipe, with his honesty, I'm afraid he won't open his mouth and ask for it!" Only then did Baihua say the main purpose of this visit. In addition to hating Wu Gang, Chang'e is still very protective of Wu Gang, "You tell him, if you don't tell him, you can't get it out for another thousand years on his own!" ”。

"Then I'll sell my favor again, I'll tell Wang Rongyue, let Rongyue tell Wu Gang again, don't blame me!" Baihua is now doing business and making experience, always thinking about maximizing benefits. "Whatever you want!" Chang'e still looks indifferent. Baihua said again, "Also, I think the time is almost up, let's let Wu Gang come back, I told him this time, if he is willing to protect Wang Rongyue by himself, it is his own business, you don't rely on me." Chang'e sighed: "You are really becoming more and more like a profiteer now, if you continue like this, I won't dare to treat you as a best friend, maybe one day, you will sell me, and I will help you count the immortal stones!" ”。

After talking about the matter, Baihua got up and walked out, "Don't worry, I will definitely sell you for a good price!" Looking at Chang'e, who got up and chased after her, Baihua giggled and ran out of the Guanghan Palace, and when she passed by the laurel tree, she stepped on the golden toad that was spinning around under the tree by the way.

Jin Toad is looking for something, his treasure money is gone, I remember that a few days ago it was still sticky on the body, Jin Toad in order to show that he has the ability to find money, his body is sticky with money everywhere, this time the lost one, Jin Toad found it in the Kunwu Mountain in the world, Jin Toad felt that this money was not the same as other money, so he stuck it on his body. It seems that I heard the barefoot fairy say that this money is called Luobao money, and I asked him what it was for, but this stinky old man didn't say it, it was really annoying. He deserves to have a pair of stinky sweaty feet and can't wear shoes!

Jin Toad searched for a long time and didn't find it, "Damn, I finally found it, and I don't know where I lost it", it's not the first time that Jin Toad has lost money, it's not too serious, he doesn't know, the money lost this time is a treasure, and Wang Rongyue was cheaper in vain.

The Hundred Flowers Fairy hasn't been to Rongyue's house for several years, and now there are too many things in the Hundred Flowers Palace, and in order to avoid the eyes of mortals, she has to dress up and become a Taoist priest, so Baihua Shame took a night and went directly from Heaven to the back garden of Rongyue's house, as soon as she entered the garden, Hundred Flowers Shame smelled the wine, and knew from this unpleasant smell that Chang'e was not lying, Wu Gang really didn't know the wine-making recipe, and he must have failed. Because this taste is the taste of a process in the manufacturing process of osmanthus brewing.

Baihua knew that Wu Gang was honest and thin-skinned, so he didn't mention the matter of brewing, "Wu Gang, I've troubled you in the past few years" said and put the six bottles of Baihua Fairy Brew in his hand on the table. "Nothing!" Wu Gang saw four more bottles, and knew that Baihua was ashamed to say something, so he waited for Baihua to speak. "Wu Gang, I originally asked you to take care of Wang Rongyue's affairs, so let's do it today, thank you!" After Baihua finished speaking, he arched his hand towards Wu Gang.

Wu Gang was stunned for a moment, "Why don't you suddenly need protection?" Thinking in his heart, a puzzled look appeared on his face, "Could it be that the Hundred Flowers Fairy knows that I teach the Melting Moon Dao Method?" Thinking of this, Wu Gang said to Baihua Shyly: "I taught Rongyue some Taoism, and it is no problem to deal with ordinary mortals, but it is not enough to deal with some demons and monsters."

As soon as Baihua heard it, she knew that Wu Gang had misunderstood, "It's not Rongyue's problem, it's not your problem, there are some things that can't be said, in short, someone will worry about Rongyue's safety in the future, don't worry about it." Only then did Wu Gang understand that it seemed that the person who was destined for Rongyue was about to appear. But Wu Gang was a little reluctant, "Then I can't just leave, I have to say goodbye to the owner of Wang Zhuang!" ”,

"That's your business, I'm not asking you to leave now, I'm just telling you that the commission between us is over, as for whether you want to stay and how long you stay, that's your business, just stay here all the time, as long as Chang'e doesn't care, I can't care anymore." Baihua said shyly and involuntarily made a joke.

Seeing that Wu Gang's face was not good-looking, Baihua Fairy knew that he had committed a taboo, "I'm leaving," Baihua turned around and left. In fact, she didn't go back to Heaven directly, but went to the front yard. Rong Yue lay on her side on her bed, revealing a round little ass in obscene clothes through the white mosquito net and pink quilt. There is black hair on the pillow, and the face is covered in the quilt, and he is sleeping soundly. Baihua smiled shyly, pinched a trick with his hand, chanted a spell in his mouth, and pointed with his hand, a golden light silently disappeared into Rongyue's brow.

In the morning, after Wu Gang got up, he stood on the edge of the garden, looking at the green branches and green leaves in the garden, and under the reflection of the sun, the dewdrops shone brightly. Wu Gang was inexplicably melancholy. "Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu, I know how to make wine!" With a crisp voice, a girl dressed in red and green with a large flower on her head walked through the moon gate and jumped in.

Wu Gang smiled. "Rongyue, what do you say?" , Rongyue ran to Wu Gang's side: "Uncle Wu, I had a dream last night, I dreamed of a beautiful fairy sister who taught me to make wine", Wu Gang heard it and thought to himself: "Could it be Chang'e?" "Really? Do you remember how to make wine? Wu Gang asked. Of course remember, come, I'll teach you! Wang Rongyue pursed her lips proudly.

Wang Rongyue took the lead in Wu Gang's room, there were still a few jars of wine on the table, full of bowls and basins, messy, Rongyue sighed like a little adult, which made Wu Gang very embarrassed. "Uncle Wu, you light the stove first, and then put the osmanthus in it and boil it into a viscous paste", Wu Gang went to make the stove without saying a word, and Wang Rongyue began to clean up the table. The small figure, the slender white and tender little hands, seemed to be magical, and soon, the things on the table were lined up in an orderly manner.

Wu Gang cooked the osmanthus paste, the room was filled with an unpleasant smell, Wu Gang looked at Rongyue suspiciously, Wang Rongyue made a grimace, precipitated the paste-like osmanthus, got it into the bowl, and put a few large bowls of white porcelain on the table, mixed wine with no hands, shook it well, then mixed wine, then shook it well, and finally after the preparation was completed, it was put into two jars. "When, when, when..." Rongyue clapped her hands, "Done!" ”。

Osmanthus brewing was finally made, Wu Gang poured a cup, drank a small sip, good, a faint osmanthus fragrance and wine aroma intertwined, forming a unique rich fragrance, intoxicating, compared to the osmanthus brewing in the Moon Palace, it is a lot worse, can use the wine of the world, brewing this degree of osmanthus brewing is already good. Wu Gang didn't think that he could use mortal wine to reach the level of immortal brewing.

"How is it, Uncle Wu, isn't it fragrant? , not the stinky smell you make. Rongyue watched Wu Gang taste the wine, and asked with a sweet little face. Well, yes, yes, take this altar to your father and taste it, go! Wu Gang took the two jars of wine that had just been prepared and took one jar to Wang Rongyue.

In the front yard of the Wang family's mansion in Wuliuzhuang, Wang Yongan is receiving guests from afar in the living room, Wang Yongan is sitting on the Taishi chair on the left side of the front, the Taishi chair on the right is empty, and there are three people sitting on a row of chairs on the left side of the living room, led by a young man in his twenties, with a tanned black face, his hair tied up from the top of his head, and a ponytail thrown at the back of his head, showing heroic and extraordinary. Sitting next to him was a thin middle-aged man, dressed as a literati, and at the beginning was a child, with his hair not long, holding the child's hair in a bun, with two locks of sideburns on both sides of his face, a white samurai tunic on the inside, a cyan tunic, and a large flower embroidered with pink silk thread on the chest of the white midcoat. His face was like a pink, the sleeves of his white samurai suit were tightened at his wrists, and his eyes were bright. There was tea on the table, and it seemed that a conversation had already been spoken.

On the sofa on the right side of the living room are Wang Yongan's two sons, Wang Jiahe and Wang Jiayu. Wang Yongan was full of smiles: "Since the virtuous nephew came to Hebei this time, he must stay longer, although you and I haven't seen each other for a few years, you don't want to see outside", the black Wang Zhenwei was just about to speak, when he heard a refreshing children's voice like a yellow oriole singing in the morning, "Daddy, daddy, Yue'er has made new wine, very fragrant!" ”。

Li Ziqiu followed the voice and looked towards the door, a pink and green figure walked in from outside, a pink girl, slightly shorter than herself, with white and tender baby fat on her face, jet-black hair coiled in a girl's unique bun, one on the left and one on the left, three small braids on the left forehead around the tail of the forehead pinned to the right of the forehead, the middle of the braided braided arc was placed in front of the forehead at will, and a large pink flower was inserted on the head.

A red trouser leg is exposed at the calf to cover the top of the foot, the green middle coat hangs from the shoulders to below the knees, the figure is slender, the chest is embroidered with a big red flower, the outer coat is a red bright gauze, the front two sides of the placket are embroidered with a large pink flower pattern, the edge of the red sand coat is a green transparent gauze half a foot wide, red and green, like a fairy descending to earth, holding a small brown wine jar in his hand in Li Ziqiu's eyes gradually getting bigger, waiting for the girl to pass in front of him, Li Ziqiu found that the girl's red gauze was also embroidered with a set of large pink flower patterns on the back.

The girl suddenly saw so many people in the living room, and after being stunned for a while, she made a naughty grimace and walked behind Wang Yongan. Wang Yongan lovingly took Wang Rongyue's hand and introduced it to everyone: "This is a little girl, Yue'er, a gift to all the brothers!" Wang Rongyue saluted everyone, and after seeing Li Ziqiu, she was stunned for a moment, "This brother, it seems that I have seen it somewhere!"

"It's going to talk nonsense" Wang Yongan pretended to reprimand Rongyue, "Little brother of the Li family, the little girl has always been arrogant, don't be surprised." Li Ziqiu hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare", said on his lips, staring at Rong Yue, and said in his heart: "I don't think I've seen this girl, but I really haven't seen it, how can I feel so familiar?" ”。

Wang Rongyue saw that her father had a guest, so she walked away from the side door with her own wine jar, Li Ziqiu looked at the pretty figure that disappeared at the door, and had a feeling of loss, as if she had lost something important, what was wrong, Li Ziqiu only had the pretty figure just now in her mind, and she completely forgot everything around her.

"Ziqiu, Ziqiu, what does the owner ask you for!" Ning Zihan's cry pulled Li Ziqiu's soul back, "Oh, owner! Li Ziqiu was polite to Wang Yongan, and he had already decided in his heart to settle down here no matter what.
