Bitter Wine (2)
Tao Yao glanced at Ye Ling, "You are the king of trees, you don't know what the reason is for the immortal tree?" ”
"So what's the matter, I just need to know if the person I like is happy or not, it's enough, and the rest is not in my consideration. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Ye Ling said indifferently, and after speaking, he glanced back at Xiyue's room, where he lived the person that Ye Ling loved until death in his life.
Tao Yao held the cup in his hand and said, "Legend has it that this wine came from this way, and legend has it that a long time ago, the wine store held a drinking party every year. On the day of the party, the owners of the large and small wineries will carry a jar of new wine brewed in their workshops to the meeting, which will be presided over by the president of the drinking party, so that everyone can taste it and rank it.
At that time, there was a winery, although it was an old workshop that had been passed down from generation to generation, but the wine made every year did not see much improvement.
This year, there was another drinking party, and the boss had to order the two young men to prepare a jar of new wine and carry it to the occasion. The boss himself went first and let the guys come later. These two guys who delivered wine had already figured out the boss's thoughts, knew that their wine was not good, and they didn't want to send it to the meeting as soon as possible to show their ugliness, so they went straight to the end of the day before carrying the wine jar and going out on the road.
It was a very hot day, the sun overhead was like a fire, and the two men carried a jar of wine, walking, walking, and sweat flowed from the tips of their hair to the tips of their toes. The two of them walked hot and thirsty, and when they arrived at the middle of the day, they happened to come to a bamboo forest, and after discussion, they decided to put the burden in the bamboo forest to cool down first, and find someone to drink saliva at home. The two put the wine jar, turned around the front slope, and looked for it on the back slope, alas! This place is not close to the village in front of it, and there is no store in the back, let alone find a home, even if it is difficult to find a small river ditch to drink saliva!
The two of them returned to the bamboo forest, and all four eyes fell on the wine jar, and they couldn't find water, so they took a sip of the bar! But as soon as I lifted the lid of the altar, I was worried again: a jar full of wine, no spoon or scoop, I can't hold it, I can't put it down, how can I drink it?
"Hey! Pregnant! The young man's eyes lit up, and he pulled two large bamboo leaves from an adult bamboo and said, "Let's twist a bamboo leaf cup!" As he spoke, he twisted the bamboo leaves into two small wine glasses, and drank one cup for you and one cup for me.
When a drinker drinks wine, it's like drinking water. The two of them drank the small half of the altar unconsciously. After drinking, the sweat disappeared, and the throat and eyes stopped smoking, but looking at the wine in the altar, the two guys were dumbfounded: only half a jar of wine was left, how to deal with it? The older guy is still scheming: "I said brother, let's carry it on the road, anyway, our wine is not good, wait until you go to a place where there is water, seep some water, you don't speak, I don't speak, just mix it up." ”
When the young man heard this, he and the older man lifted the jar and left. After walking a short distance, I saw a clump of emerald green bamboo, there were several big stones next to the bamboo bushes, and a drop of clear water oozed from the cracks of the stones, and the drops fell in a palm-sized inlet under the stone root. As if encountering a life-saving spring, the two of them hurriedly put down the wine jar, picked two bamboo leaves and twisted them into a cup, and squatted by the small water inlet. It is strange to say, don't look at this small inlet bay is only the size of a palm, but no matter how they scoop it, the water in the bay is always not less, and after a while, the jar is filled, and they take advantage of a few sips to drink it, and feel that the spring water is cold and sweet. The two of them saw that it was not too early, and hurriedly lifted the wine jar and went on the road.
In addition, at the cocktail party, the chairman of the cocktail party and the owners of each winery passed the glasses and exchanged glasses, and tasted the new wine one by one. Seeing that the tasting was about to be finished, I saw the two men sweating profusely carrying the jar into the venue, and the boss personally opened the lid of the altar, scooped a bowl of wine, and respectfully held it in front of the chairman of the cocktail party. The president of the cocktail party picked up the bowl, looked at the boss and smiled, and said: "The finale of the show, the cap of good wine, I have to taste the bowl of wine of your boss at the end of today's cocktail party, it must be the best!" After saying that, there was a burst of laughter, and the wine boss in the room also laughed.
The boss knew that everyone was making fun of him, so he had to blush and say: "Ashamed, ashamed, Shui Jiu Village Moromi, I hope you will appreciate and advise." The chairman of the cocktail party laughed again: "Hey, where, where, I learned first." As he spoke, he brought the bowl to his lips and took a sip.
"Huh?" The president of the cocktail party clicked the tower, looked at the wine boss, and then looked at the wine in the bowl, and said to the owners of the wine shops for a while; "Come on, come on, everyone taste it!" This bowl of wine was passed around in the hands of the bosses, and I saw that this one tasted it and stuck out his tongue, and the other tasted it and stared at his eyes, and no one dared to squeak. When the two men saw it, they were afraid of revealing their stuffing, so they were so frightened that they retreated back. The boss looked at this scene, I didn't know what was going on, my heart was furious, my body trembled, and I quickly looked into the altar, only to find that the wine was green and crystalline, green and clear, and there was an indescribable strong smell that went straight to the nose and eyes! He shuddered and scooped half a bowl and tasted it himself. I couldn't help but be stunned: Huh! Is this my family's wine?
Before the boss could figure out what was going on, the president of the cocktail party stood up, glanced around the venue, and asked, "Everyone, how is this bowl of wine?" ”
"Good wine, good wine!" The venue boiled like boiling water.
The chairman of the cocktail party left the table with a smile and came to the boss and said, "Congratulations, congratulations!" The old brother is a blockbuster, brewing such a syrup and jade liquid, he should pass on the craftsmanship in public! ”
The boss was like in a dream, so he had to say: "Don't dare, don't dare, try a little skill for the first time, occasionally get a new brew, and let me see you at the New Year's meeting!" ”
"Good! Good luck dude next year! The chairman of the cocktail party was happy, turned around and ordered: "Come, have a feast and drink, and celebrate this year's good food!" With that, he gave the boss a seat. For a while, the delicacies of the mountains and seas were on the table, and everyone raised their glasses and touched the glasses, and drank this jar of wine to the bottom. Needless to say, at this year's cocktail party, the wine sent by these guys ranked first!
On the way back to the winery, as soon as the two of them were happy, they told the boss all about adding spring water to the wine jar. After hearing this, the boss took out twenty copper coins and said to them, "Don't talk nonsense about this matter to people anymore." Come, send wine on a hot day, work hard all the way, you can use these few dollars to buy tea and drink! The two of them were naturally overjoyed by the blessing in disguise.
The next day, the boss asked them to guide the way, and went to see the bamboo forest where they rested, and tasted the spring water of the bay with his own mouth, knowing that such a good wine was inseparable from the clear and sweet spring water. So, he bought the land, moved the winery, drilled a well in the small inlet, and worked hard to improve the brewing technique, and finally made a unique color and taste, good wine, named "Zhuyeqing" wine.

"There is indeed such a boring drinking activity in the world, and it is ridiculous to say. But in fact, there are a lot of good wines. (To be continued.) )
