Chapter 127: If you don't get drunk, you can't go home
Lu Qi's current identity is Liu Ping's general, so he goes to Liu's mansion every day.
Today, Liu's Mansion held a banquet, and she, as a subordinate, naturally wanted to help.
Guo Jia couldn't help but admire when he saw the heroic Lu Qi.
I have to say that Lu Qi has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has a wild nature that is rare for ordinary women, and that unique trait will make many men want to conquer.
Cao Ang looked at Guo Jia's slightly envious expression, and introduced with a smile: "That's Lu Qi, it's Lu Bu's daughter, and now she is a general under Liu Pingxian's brother." ”
"It's still the daughter of a famous general, it's really extraordinary," Guo Jia naturally heard about Lu Buji's family being detained in Yanzhou.
He sighed slightly and said, "It's a pity that the pink beauty has become a general." ”
The two of them looked at each other, smiling in a way that only a man could understand, and shook their heads at the same time.
At this time, Liu Ping greeted him.
Guo Jia is the most distinguished guest he has waited, of course, Cao Ang's status is also noble, but Cao Ang is more familiar here than he is at his own home, and he doesn't need Liu Ping to greet him personally.
As soon as the two arrived, after everyone sat down, Liu Ping ordered the banquet to begin.
A maid carried several wine jars into the house, ready to scoop wine for everyone.
Cao Ang coughed twice, and when everyone calmed down, he said aloud: "We are gathered here today to celebrate the birthday of Brother Liu Pingxian, and we wish him the eternity of the moon and the rise of the sun."
But my ugly words can be said to the end, this wine is very strong, drink for a while, no more than five bowls per person, if you overdose, you will bear the consequences. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the brothers of the Cao family and the Xiahou family blew up.
"Big brother, what do you mean by that? My sister-in-law's wine is enough or what? ”
"That is, as the saying goes, drink as much as you like, how can you limit the amount before drinking."
"With the amount of wine we have, how can five bowls be enough? Fifty bowls is about the same. ”
The alcohol content of this era is generally low, similar to the beer of later generations, otherwise Guo Jia would not drink it as water, and it is really okay to drink fifty bowls of wine in large quantities.
When everyone heard that they were only allowed to drink five bowls, they were immediately not interested, and they shook their heads and sighed one by one.
Guo Jia originally thought that there was no good wine in Yanzhou, but now Cao Ang proposed a limited edition of five bowls, and he immediately felt disappointed.
The wine is ordinary, and it doesn't matter if it's enough, what's the point of drinking it like this?
He smiled beside him and said, "Eldest prince, everyone has their own amount of wine, how can you talk about it, as far as I am concerned, I have to drink five bowls before breakfast." ”
Although everyone didn't know Guo Jia, seeing that Liu Ping and Cao Ang respected him so much, they must also be new big shots.
Since he had said it all, the crowd followed suit.
Others shouted, Cao Ang could not care, but Guo Jia could not help but respond when he spoke.
"Mr. Guo, I'm here for everyone's good, this wine is very strong, five bowls is the limit, according to the usual way of drinking, I'm afraid it won't take a stick of incense, everyone will be drunk."
He has an upright personality, and it is indeed for the good of everyone to say it in advance, after all, they are not familiar with the strength of this wine.
Guo Jia smiled and shook his head slightly, indicating that this was really an extra move.
Liu Ping, as the host, naturally couldn't restrict everyone from drinking, so he said next to him: "Big brother, today is my birthday banquet, five bowls, fifty bowls, anyway, you have to get drunk sooner or later, why limit it, everyone will not return if you are not drunk." ”
Everyone nodded yes.
"It's still my sister-in-law's words, and when I'm drunk, I naturally don't drink it."
"No matter how small the amount of alcohol is, you won't get drunk with five bowls."
"Okay, okay, count me as talking more," Cao Ang saw Liu Ping say this, so he had to agree stupidly.
He then pointed to a group of coaxing brothers and said, "You can try it later, and after five bowls, you can walk straight out of this door, and I will count you as a winner." ”
"Try it, I don't believe it yet, I'll leave to show you in a while." Xiahou Chong, the son of Xiahoudun, pouted and answered.
Xiahou Chong, like his father, is massive, and he is one of the best among all the brothers.
At this time, a maid came and scooped wine for the people.
Guo Jia is also a person who has tasted all kinds of famous wines in the world, and knows where to produce good wine, anyway, there is no shortage of food like Yanzhou in all the famous wine producing areas in the world.
At that time, Cao Ang once boasted that Liu's wine was the best in the world, but he naturally didn't believe it.
Making famous wine is not an overnight effort, it needs to be inherited, and only the old cellar can be fragrant.
If you say that it is the first in the world, who else can there be besides Xinfeng Wine?
That Xinfeng wine cellar has a history of nearly 400 years since Gaozu, and Liu Ping has only been in Yanzhou for a few months? If he said that the wine produced exceeded that of Xinfeng wine, he would not believe it.
At this time, a maid came and scooped wine for him.
"Huh? How is this wine clear? Guo Jia rubbed his forehead, confused.
In this era, no matter how it is filtered, it is turbid, which is why there is such a thing as "a pot of turbid sake is happy to meet", but after distillation, it can be made clear.
As soon as Guo Jia's words fell, a rich and mellow aroma came to his nose, as if the aroma of more than a dozen bowls of wine was condensed into this bowl.
Guo Jia was surprised, this wine smelled so good.
At this time, Liu Ping picked up the wine bowl and said loudly: "Thank you for coming to my birthday banquet, I am grateful, please drink this cup." ”
Saying that, he drank it all at once, he didn't drink much, but he still had to drink the first bowl.
Guo Jia was already itching, so he hurriedly picked up the bowl and suddenly felt the aroma.
He took a big sip, only to feel that his mouth was soft and fragrant, but after swallowing it, it was like swallowing a fire, instantly reaching his limbs and hundreds of remains, and his whole body was like a spring breeze, which was extremely comfortable.
Close your eyes and taste it carefully, only to feel a long aftertaste, like drinking nectar.
"Good wine!" Guo Jia opened his eyes suddenly, drank the rest of the wine bowl, and praised loudly: "What the eldest prince said is true, it can really be described as the first wine in the world." ”
Only then did he believe what Cao Ang said, this was indeed the sweetest wine he had ever drunk, several times better than the Xinfeng wine he had drunk before.
That's because after the wine is distilled and purified, with the increase of the degree, the aroma of the wine is also concentrated, and it is naturally more fragrant than ordinary wine.
Guo Jia couldn't help laughing and said: "It's not a secret, before I came to Yanzhou, I was already prepared to not be able to drink fine wine, I didn't expect there to be such a good wine here, if I had known that this was the case, I would have come a long time ago without Xun Wenruo writing a letter." ”
Liu Ping hurriedly said politely: "It's really embarrassing that the wine under the table can be praised by Mr. Guo so absurdly." ”
"It's not a false compliment, it's true," Guo Jia said: "Ping Gongzi is really a strange person, not only Yunwen Yunwu, but also can make such a fine wine, if you have to assist Cao Zhijun to conquer the Quartet, this wine alone can be famous all over the world." ”
Guo Jia was surprised and relieved at the same time, if there is this kind of wine to drink every day in the future, then what is there to regret when he comes to Yanzhou.
After drinking this sake, I felt that all I had drunk before was cold water.
Cao Ang was also quite proud, with a smile on his face that made you unbelieve.
At this time, the brothers also drank a full bowl, and then they heard the sound of coughing one after another in the house.
"Ahem, what kind of wine is this, it's so fragrant and strong!"
One by one, they bared their teeth and slapped their tongues to fan the wind.
Cao Ang stood up and said to a group of people: "Who said just now, you want to try to drink five bowls and walk out of here?" ”
