Chapter 290: Miao Village Rice Wine Aroma
After finishing the arrangement, Geng Zhizhou said that he would hold a banquet for Yang Qiuchi in the largest restaurant in the city tonight.
Yang Qiuchi cleaned up, washed up, and took Song Yuner and the escort team to the restaurant to participate in the banquet.
In order to thank Yang Qiuchi for helping to find the child, Geng Zhizhou invited all the famous people in the city to participate in the banquet.
These people already knew that Yang Qiuchi had solved the kidnapping case in less than half a day and successfully rescued the son of Lord Zhizhou, who was the great benefactor of Lord Zhizhou. At this time, patting Yang Qiuchi's sycophants is more effective than patting Zhizhou's sycophants, not to mention that Yang Qiuchi is still the second-in-command of Yuanzhou in this town.
So, at the banquet, these people all prepared their own greeting gifts. Of course, Yang Qiuchi did not refuse to come, and received a lot of gifts and money.
The next day, Yang Qiuchi said goodbye to Geng Zhizhou, Geng Zhizhou knew that Yang Qiuchi was now in a hurry to solve the serial murder case, and he didn't dare to keep it, so he led the officials of the yamen to send Yang Qiuchi outside the city gate.
At noon, I rushed to the county government of Qingxi County, ate dinner, and immediately set off for Miao Village.
Song Qing saw Yang Qiuchi coming in a hurry and leaving in a hurry, feeling a little uncomfortable, knowing that he was busy with official business, but he was also very helpless, so he could only tell him to be careful. This time I went to Miao Village to investigate the case, and Song Qing asked the pair of Miao twin sisters Shuang'er and Xue'er to follow Yang Qiuchi, first, to serve Yang Qiuchi's daily life, and secondly, to have a caring person who understands Miao language as a translator to facilitate communication.
With this pair of lovely Miao twin sisters to follow, Yang Qiuchi was of course very happy.
In the evening, I went to Miao Village.
Yun Tianqing, the owner of Miao Village, has already gotten the news, and with his son Yun Xuan, the leaders of the whole cottage have been coming out of the country.
When he was about to enter Miao Village, Yang Qiuchi saw a large group of people standing there from a distance, drummers blowing suona, setting off firecrackers, gongs and drums, and it was as lively as marrying a new daughter-in-law.
There were two people standing first, one was Yun Tianqing, the owner of the old village, and behind him was his son Yun Xuan.
After seeing Yang Qiuchi and the others, Yun Tianqing stepped forward in a few steps, and the two of them crossed their arms, both of them looking up to the sky and laughing.
Yun Tianqing smiled and said, "Lord Yang, Yun is looking forward to you." Why didn't you say hello in advance, Yun Mou made a little preparation to welcome you, a distinguished guest, into the village! Hahaha. ”
Yang Qiuchi said: "I like to carry out surprise attacks, you have to prepare well, but you will see the outside, so it's best." ”
"Lord Yang is right. Come on, come on, drink the twelve horns barricade wine first! After that, he stepped aside, and a long line of dressed Miao girls appeared behind him, all of them were as beautiful as flowers, looking at Yang Qiuchi with a smile, the silver jewelry on his head was shining, and the neck, hands, and feet were all silver jewelry, jingling in the wind, and each holding a curved black horn in his hand.
Yang Qiuchi was taken aback, could it be that it was filled with wine? There is at least a big bowl of wine poured out of this horn, and the wine of these twelve horns is twelve bowls, my God, Wu Song drank eighteen bowls in a row, and he had to go up the mountain to fight tigers, and he drank twelve bowls in a row, not to mention fighting tigers, it would be good to be able to kill mice.
I have the heart to say that I don't know how to drink, but I drink with Yun Tianqing every three or five days, he knows the amount of alcohol he drinks well, and he can't hide it, looking at Yun Tianqing's white-bearded and smiling appearance, I'm afraid this level is inevitable.
Yun Tianqing pointed to the first dressed Miao girl with a horn in her hand and said, "This is my daughter, named Yunlu. "Yun Tianqing has a total of one son and one daughter, his son Yun is stunned, and his daughter is Yun Lu.
This Yunlu was sixteen or seventeen years old, very beautiful and moving, as delicate as a beautiful camellia, with a bright smile on his face, and said in Miao language with a bull's horn, Yang Qiuchi couldn't understand a word, and was at a loss.
After the two sisters Shuang'er and Xue'er, who followed behind him, smiled and translated for Yang Qiuchi, Yang Qiuchi realized that what Yunlu said was also to salute the distinguished guest and wish the distinguished guest auspicious.
After listening to Yunlu, Yang Qiuchi turned his head and asked Shuang'er: "Is this horn filled with wine?" ”
Shuang'er said: "Yes, this is the rice wine brewed by our Miao family themselves, and these twelve barricades of wine are only put out by the most distinguished guests." ”
"So, should I finish it?"
Shuang'er said: "You must try to drink it all, Miss Song, they can do whatever they want." ”
Sister Xue'er interjected crisply: "Young master, if you drink them all, our Miao family will be wholeheartedly devoted to you, and you will not drink a few horns." We're half-hearted. Hee-hee. ”
Yang Qiuchi's face was like a frosted eggplant, and she looked back at Song Yun'er with a bitter face, she didn't understand the rules of the Miao family, and she was not good at drinking, so she couldn't help Yang Qiuchi.
"It's all nonsense!" Shuang'er poked Xue'er and said to Yang Qiuchi, "Young Master, don't listen to her. According to the rules, it is true that you should drink all of them, but if you are not strong enough to drink, you can drink all the horns of the head and the horn of the tail, and take a sip of the rest. You are our Miao Village's honored guest, even if you don't drink a sip, we will treat you wholeheartedly. ”
Xue'er grinned and stuck out her tongue at Yang Qiuchi.
Yun Tianqing swept his goatee and nodded frequently, looked at Shuang'er and praised: "Little sister said it well." He winked at Yang Qiuchi and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, I see that you have a limited amount of wine, so just take a sip." ”
Yang Qiuchi obviously knew that this old man Yun was using the method of agitation, but after all, he was young and vigorous, and he never shirked when he drank. He didn't answer, he smiled, and reached for the horns.
Unexpectedly, Yunlu didn't let go of the horns, but looked at him with a smile and started singing. The melody is tactful, the voice is high-pitched, especially the tail note is long, and it winds straight into the sky.
Yang Qiuchi didn't understand, Shuang'er stepped forward and whispered to Yang Qiuchi to explain the lyrics, it turned out that Yunlu was singing:
The sky is full of color
Guests come to my house
There is no food to serve guests
Sing and put the wine down
A dime of wine for the guests
Forgive the host family
The lyrics are quite simple and popular, but most of the mountain songs and slang songs are like this, but this tune is really good.
After thanking him, he stretched out his hand with a smile, took the horn from Yun Lu's hand, looked inside, the quiet aroma of rice wine in the horn was fragrant, and after holding it up and signaling to Yun Tianqing, Yun Xuan and the Miao girls, he raised his neck and drank it dry in one gulp.
Good! Yun Tianqing praised it, and everyone applauded.
Yang Qiuchi was about to return the horns. Yun on the side stepped forward and waved his hand and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, according to the rules, you should return a song before you can return the horns." ”
Of course, Yang Qiuchi has the heart to come to a song, but in addition to singing popular songs such as "Two Butterflies", this mountain song and drinking song is Ma Daha. He said, "This, I don't know how to sing mountain songs." ”
"That's okay," Yun smiled and turned his head to look at the two sisters, Shuang'er and Xue'er, "Don't you bring capable people to let them out." ”
"Yes, yes!" Yang Qiuchi turned to the two lovely people and said, "Which of the two of you will give me a song for the young master?" ”
The two sisters were generous, and the elder sister Shuang'er said, "I'll return a song for the young master first." After that, he sang in Hmong:
I only came because of you
Come to the host's house
The host was so hospitable
The mountain song put the wine down
I also sing a song
Thanks to the host family
This frost is a Miao singer selected from a hundred miles, and her singing voice is even more tactful and bright, sweet and intoxicating, only to hear everyone drunk and obsessed, and applauded again and again.
Yang Qiuchi was about to return the horns, but his sister Xue'er stopped him and said, "Young master, they have a problem and let us return the wine song, and we return it, they also want to drink." ”
"Yes! Right, right! Drink it too! ”
Yun Tianqing laughed: "Well said! There are comings and goings, which is the temper of our Miao family. Take the horns and everyone will drink them! ”
A few young men from the Miao family in the back brought a lot of horns, one for each person, all poured rice wine, thanked Yang Qiuchi in unison, and drank it all.
Yang Qiuchi was very happy, and happily touched the heads of Shuang'er and Xue'er: "Hmm! Very good! The young master is fortunate to have brought your sisters this time! ”
Shuang'er and Xue'er giggled and glanced at each other, and they were both very happy to get the praise of the young master.
Yang Qiuchi went to pick up the horns in the hands of the second Miao girl. Of course, the girl also sang:
Visitors from afar
I'll pick you up when I come to Miao's house
A good song is sung to you
The sunbird can also be heard passing by
After Yang Qiuchi drank dry, this time his sister Xue'er helped Yang Qiuchi return the wine song, and Yun Tianqing and the others also laughed and drank a horn rice wine.
This back and forth is also lively, much more interesting than the simple wine fight, and there is a buffer time, so after drinking the twelve horn rice wine, although Yang Qiuchi is already drunk, he can still withstand it. Everyone else was already drunk.
Yang Qiuchi and Yun Tianqing held each other's shoulders, smiled and talked, and walked towards the Miao Village with one foot high and one foot low.
Although Song Yun'er drank little, but the twelve horns came down, even if she took a sip, she drank with a red face, and followed the guards into Miao Village.
This Miao village is almost all stilted buildings, the village is full of green trees, and every household comes out to greet distinguished guests.
Yun Tianqing's mansion is in the middle of the village, which is very majestic.
Walk up the wooden stairs to the stilted building, walk through the long hallway, and go to the living room.
There were a few dressed Miao women waiting here, and Yun Tianqing introduced them one by one, and it turned out to be Yun Tianqing's wives and concubines.
Yun Su and Yun Lu rushed into the room, came out with two horns of wine, and looked at Yang Qiuchi with a smile.
Still drinking? Yang Qiu's pond head is big.
Shuang'er explained: "This is the barricade wine that enters the house, and it must be drunk. ”
Naturally, it was Shuang'er who helped to return the song. He drank two more horns in a row, and then he entered the house.
Although it is rice wine, the degree is relatively low, but after drinking fourteen horns in a row, Yang Qiuchi still drank dizzy, and his face was like fire.
The Miao family does not have a special living room, and the guests who come are all sitting by the fire and talking.
Yang Qiuchi and the others were introduced to the fire pond and sat down on a low stool, and then the leaders of the Miao Village who came in were all surrounded by the fire pond of the owner of the village.
A large bowl of dishes and a large bowl of rice wine have been placed by the fire. As soon as Yang Qiuchi saw this posture, he knew that there was still a fierce battle. I thought that while I was still drunk, I would get down to business first.
