Chapter 16: A cup is poured
"Oh, my master. You're ready to brew so quickly? Henry was also surprised, but he was not a rookie, and he would not inquire about the master's affairs, glanced at the wine handed over by Clifford, and said with a look of embarrassment: "Please forgive me, my master." I don't drink anymore, so why don't you let Peter try it? That guy likes to drink the most. ”
"All right, Henry. Go and call him. Clifford smiled slightly. If it weren't for the fact that time was so tight, he didn't want to make wine at a speed that stunned others, and when he explained it to them, he said that it was a new technology, anyway, it was his own subordinates, so he could say whatever he wanted.
As soon as he heard that there was wine to drink, Peter ran over excitedly, lifted his beloved little felt hat, looked like a gluttonous insect who had never seen wine, and said with a smile: "Is it the wine made by the master?" I'm going to try it, I'm so honored. ”
Clifford handed Peter his brewed brandy and smiled, "Don't say that, dear Peter. Your faithfulness is enough to drink this wine. ”
In this era, it is a great honor for the host to toast in person, Peter looked at the wine glass handed over by Clifford, he was inexplicably excited, he did not want to miss this opportunity, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all with a bang.
Immediately, he felt that his throat was hot, as if he had swallowed a piece of coal, his abdomen turned upside down, his face was flushed, it seemed that something was stuck in his throat, making him speechless, and after a long time, he turned his head, looked at Boss Henry with a stupid expression, and said, "Sorry, BOSS." I may not be able to work for you anymore in the last two days. Immediately, with a thud, he fell to the ground, his feet facing the sky.
A cup poured? Clifford looked at Peter's appearance, a little incredulous, it is said that he loves to drink so much, there should be some amount of alcohol, although the degree of brandy is high, but it is only more than forty degrees, how can an adult man pour a glass?
Collie subconsciously sniffed the rest of the wine, so choked! How could this be only forty degrees, and then he suddenly remembered that he had pulled an important process - blending, the liquor that had just been distilled was very high and had to be blended before it could be drunk, but he had given the loyal Mr. Peter the most primitive high-strength liquor syrup. This Nima, a pit teammate.
Henry couldn't believe the scene in front of him, he still knew the amount of Peter's drink, it was impossible to put him down with a glass, looked at Clifford in disbelief and said, "My master, what kind of wine are you?" He put Peter down at once. ”
Clifford coughed awkwardly, not wanting to tell Henry about his mistake, which would tarnish his image as a great leader, and said, "This is my secret ingredient." Now it seems to be a success, but Henry, you have to tell Peter, no one can say anything about today, this is our top secret. ”
"Well, master. I will remember what you commanded. The fat Henry bowed very hard and said.
Clifford smiled and said, "I still have to improve it, I'm afraid that the old fox can't bear such a strong wine." Immediately, he ran into the wine-making workshop and began to mix his brandy.
With the help of the system, in the evening, Clifford finally succeeded in brewing three fine bottles of brandy, and he asked Henry for three fine flasks to fill them, and then carried the wine and rushed home with Sophia.
In the Earl of Clifford's Palace, Polina and Alia, who went out to buy pig seedlings, had already returned, and the toilet had been built, and everyone put the purchased pig seedlings in the pigsty.
Arya did not see Collifor and the ugly female tenant, and her suspicion arose, and she walked up to Yasan, smiled sweetly, and asked, "Mr. Yasan, have you seen your master?" ”
Yasan knew that he couldn't hide it, and while lowering his head to clean up the clutter left over from the establishment of the toilet, he said casually: "He went out with the lady named Lily and hasn't come back yet." ”
Went out with Lily? A hint of suspicion flashed in Alia's eyes, it would be nothing if Collifer went out with a young and beautiful woman, but it would be very abnormal to go out with that ugly girl, even if he was a waste, at least he could distinguish the beauty and ugliness, she didn't believe that her thousand charms would not feed Cleif's taste, her eyes rolled slightly, and she still asked very cutely: "Then do you know where the master went?" It was already dark, and I was afraid that he would not be safe outside. ”
Ahsan stood up, spread his hands, and said with a speechless look, "Please, Miss Arya." He is the master, and his whereabouts, how can we, who are servants, ask about it? I think he should be safe, the security of the royal capital is still very good, and he is a nobleman. ”
While he was talking, Collie Fu came back with Sophia, and he didn't want Arya to see the three bottles of wine, so he put them in the bag that Sophia was carrying, and in his hand, he carried some paintbrushes and paints, and after seeing everyone, he greeted with a smile: "I'm very sorry, I came back so late, so you have to wait for a long time." ”
Arya was the first to rush forward, took Clifford's hand, and said with a worried face: "Master, where have you been?" It's too dangerous to come back so late, have you forgotten Gandalf? ”
After she reminded him like this, Clifford remembered that others didn't know about Gandalf, so he couldn't be so prodigal, he had to pretend to be very careful, otherwise he would be easily exposed, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, in public, he won't dare to do anything to me." I bought some things for Lily to paint. Immediately, he showed the paintbrush and paint in his hand, which was the cover that he had agreed with Sophia in advance.
"I'm so sorry, it's me who has taken too long to pick things up, so that Mr. Earl has come back so late." Sophia bowed slightly and apologized to everyone. Her face was full of apologies, but unlike Arya, her apologies were sincere, and it was inappropriate to come back so late.
Arya glanced at this ugly girl, her eyes were full of contempt, she was really a toad who wanted to eat swan meat, and she looked like this and still wanted to seduce the earl, although she didn't like Cleford, but out of natural jealousy, during the period when she was still playing with Cleford, she didn't like other women to get involved with Cleford, with a layer of frost on her face, and said in an unhappy tone: "Miss Lily, please don't do this next time." If something is in danger to my master, you can't afford it. ”
