Chapter Seventy-Five: Shen Shi

"Nineteenth brother......" Qu Gang's affectionate title made Hu Nineteen feel creepy.

She hurriedly glanced left and right, and sure enough, several men nearby were busy with their own work, but they still cast curious glances from time to time.

Early this morning, when Hu Shijiu first came to work, Qu Gang was in the courtyard "waiting for the rabbit", and he had to stop Hu Shijiu to find out what was wrong with the jar yesterday, so that Hu Shijiu could be so sure that it was empty.

And when Qu Gang figured out what happened, he couldn't help but scold Sun Wu countless times in his heart, and at the same time personally led Hu Shijiu to visit the wine cellar, and let her watch every winemaking process carefully.

"Nineteenth brother, can you smell the recipe for this koji?" At this time, Qu Gang brought a dark yellow paper bag to Hu Shijiu with a smile on his face, completely ignoring the surprised gazes of others.

Hu Shijiu had just learned that it turned out that in the wine cellar yesterday, she saw a variety of different koji in the paper bag hanging in the air.

She was a little embarrassed, but being able to visit the cellar as she wished had made her extremely content. In the rest of the day, she prefers to learn how to make wine.

Helpless, looking at Qu Gang's eager and attentive eyes, Hu Shijiu could only take the paper bag, and quickly put his nose on the paper bag and sniffed it: "White aconite, atractylodes, Chuanxiong, Guan Gui, Muxiang, parsnip, black aconite, guati ......"

As she walked forward, she whispered, "Among them, white aconite is the most used, and guati is the least." ”

Qu Gang was already stunned on the sidelines.

Seeing that he finally left those guys who were talking to each other and stood in a relatively secluded place, Hu Shijiu stopped and looked at Qu Gang with a paper bag with a smile, "Thank you for being in charge of Qu, Nineteen is already familiar with the wine cellar." What's next, what should Nineteen do? ”

Unintentionally, it was originally Qu Gang who led Hu Nineteen to visit the familiar wine cellar, but it turned out to be Hu Nineteen walking in front, and Qu Gang followed behind without reluctance.

"This, that's familiar?"

Qu Gang felt that he was still unsatisfied. God has eyes, to be able to send such a genius to the wine cellar, he was almost fooled by Sun Wu's kid and made himself a fool! Qu Gang decided to treat Hu Shijiu as a "Bacchus Boy" in the future.

The change in Qu Gang's attitude made Hu Shijiu somewhat uncomfortable. She just wanted to be in the cellar and learn how to make wine.

Therefore, Hu Shijiu returned the paper bag to Qu Gang, smiled and said: "Thank you Qu Steward, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, Nineteen will ask Qu Steward again." Now, Nineteen just wants to learn how to make wine. ”

Qu Gang was flattered, and his long face almost smiled like a wrinkled eggplant.

Listen, how sensible this kid is! That damn Sun Wu!

He made up his mind to go back and repair Sun Wu again. It's just that at this time, Hu Shijiu's mouthful of a "bending steward" made him feel indescribably comfortable.

"In that case," Qu Gang looked at the cellar, "who is that, come over here." He reached out to a guy who was grinding materials with an "iron grinding boat".

"You go ......" Qu Gang lowered his voice, the guy was stunned for a moment, quickly glanced at Hu Shijiu, nodded again, and immediately turned around and left, disappearing into the depths of the dim wine cellar.

"Nineteen brothers, you come with me." Qu Gang turned sideways and said to Hu Shijiu again.

I have to say that although this wine cellar in the Drunken Man Building is not as "dark and old" as the previous secret wine cellar, its majestic momentum also made Hu Shijiu breathtaking.

It was clearly the road that had been walked just now, but under the leadership of Qu Gang, somehow, when Hu Shijiu realized that the aroma of the wine was gradually fading, the two of them entered the pine forest outside the wine cellar again.

And this pine forest seems to be different from the pine forest when Hu Shijiu came in. In the distance, I saw a wooden house faintly in the forest, and in the house, there was a candle flame swaying in the wind.

"Steward?" Hu 19 stopped.

Qu Gang, who was leading the way in front, turned his head and saw Hu Shijiu's somewhat hesitant expression, and said with a smile: "Haven't you always wanted to learn to make wine?" I'll take you to meet someone. ”

At this time, Qu Gang is neither as arrogant and impetuous as Hu Shijiu when he first entered the wine cellar, nor is he as capricious as yesterday.

This young man, who was about twenty years old, had a trace of vicissitudes that were not commensurate with his age at the moment, which made Hu Shijiu feel a little more relieved.

Hu Shijiu also smiled and nodded to follow.

Who do you want to meet, is it Master?

Hu Shijiu couldn't help but be a little excited, and his steps became more brisk.

When he arrived outside the hut, Qu Gang straightened his waist, straightened his clothes, and looked at Hu Nineteen attentively.

Hu Shijiu was a little nervous by him, and couldn't help but follow his example, stretched the black cloth coat on his body, and tied the curtain on his head tightly.

Qu Gang's eyes showed a look of approval, and his smile became gentler.

"Qin Jiuzheng, Qu Gang has something to see."

Not a master? Qu Gang's respectful attitude made Hu Shijiu even more nervous.

At that moment, the door of the wooden house creaked open.

A boy with drooping hair came out of it, and said in a childish voice: "Qu Guan, please come inside." ”

Hu Shijiu couldn't help but sneer, whose grandson is this, but he is really cute, but when he looked up and saw Qu Gang's quick glance, he was clearly signaling Hu Shijiu not to be presumptuous.

Hu Shijiu hurriedly straightened his face, lowered his head and followed Qu Gang into the wooden house.

The layout of the wooden house is basically the same as that of the hall when the wine cellar first entered, with a few cases and a few green mats.

The difference is that the flower and bird screen in the hall has been replaced with a green bamboo screen here, and in this wooden house, it is even more simple.

"You may be seated." Only then did Hu 19 realize that in the house, there was a boy who was a little older, standing upright in front of the screen, and motioned for her to sit down with Qu Gang.

And next to the boy, Hu Shijiu also saw a somewhat familiar person, who was the guy who was in the wine cellar just now.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Qu Gang was also a little surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and asked in a low voice.

"I just arrived here, and they said that Qin Jiuzheng was still resting, but he was ......" The guy said hesitantly: "It's just that I was asked to wait in the house for ......" At this time, he was also at a loss.

This is strange, in the past, no one could enter this place without communication.

Now, the three of them actually came in, but Qin Jiuzheng was still resting.

This Qin Lao'er, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

Qu Gang couldn't help frowning, puzzled.

"Heh-" At this moment, there was movement behind the screen, and there was a long yawn, "Tong'er, what time is it?" ”

"It's time to return to the wine, and it's almost time to apply." The older boy looked at the copper kettle on the case with a good look, and then reported it.

Behind the screen, there was no more sound.

"Qin Jiuzheng," Qu Gang stepped forward and said through the screen, "Qu Gang has something to ask your old man." ”

Behind the screen, there was no sound for a long time.

Then, there was the sound of snoring.

This, this is falling asleep again?
