Chapter 70: The Glow-in-the-Dark Glass of Grape Wine
Chapter 70 Glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine
Ya Niang also got up and went over, used a bottle of wine to drink, and tasted it in the same way as Xiao Jiading, and shook her head in surprise and said that she didn't know what to do.
Tang Lin smiled and said: "This is a fine wine in the palace, called 'wine', which is made from a kind of thing called grapes imported from the Western Regions, this kind of thing, there are few of them!" This is still when the emperor ascended the throne today......"
As soon as he said this, Tang Lin's voice stopped, his expression was quite gloomy, he waved his hand, and said, "Forget it, don't talk about it, drink!" Today, if you can't finish this jar of wine, you are not allowed to leave! ”
Ya Niang and Nian Mei have only heard of such a wine, but they have never tasted it, and they can't imagine that there is such a good taste today, and their faces are very excited.
This wine is a treasure for Tang Dynasty people like Tang Lin, but for Xiao Jiading, a guy from modern times who has never drunk any wine, it is not rare, and he even feels that it is far less good than the high-quality red wine in modern society. The most important thing is that Xiao Jiading only likes to drink white wine, not red wine or beer. So he didn't have much interest, but he knew that this was a treasure in the Tang Dynasty, and it must also be the treasure in Tang Lin's heart, so he had to pretend to be interested in it before he could have fun.
So, Xiao Jiading drank another cup and couldn't stop shouting loudly in praise: "Ah! This wine should only be in the sky, and the world can smell it a few times! ”
His poem was adapted from Du Fu's "Gift of Flowers", but the song was changed to wine. This is also a famous sentence that has been passed down through the ages, which immediately attracted Tang Lin and the second daughter to applaud in unison.
Ya Niang said: "It is worthy of being a talent who becomes a poem in seven steps, and his export is a poem, and they are all high-grade sentences." If you don't become famous in the Tang Dynasty, then there will be no heavenly reason! ”
Crazy Mei listened to him praise Xiao Jiading, just like praising her husband, her face was full of pride and joy, she pulled Xiao Jiading to sit back, and picked up a small piece of crystal dragon and phoenix cake and sent it to his mouth: "Don't drink so much wine on an empty stomach, eat something first!" ”
Everything was delivered to his mouth, Xiao Jiading had no choice but to bite it, peeked at Ya Niang, and saw that she turned her head to look at the moonlight outside the window, but her expression was a little faint. Hurriedly said to Crazy Mei: "I'll eat it myself, and you can eat it too." - Boss, shall we have a drink? ”
This sentence of "start drinking" immediately aroused Tang Lin's arrogance, and said loudly: "Pour wine!" ”
Xiao Jiading glanced at the wine glasses, which were all silver cups with carved patterns, and asked the leading flower girl: "Do you have glass cups on the painting boat?" ”
The Tang Dynasty did not have transparent glass, but there was already a translucent glass cup, which was naturally slightly inferior in value compared to the silver cup.
Hua Niang nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
There is a verse in Tang poems about "Luminous Glass of Grape Wine", but the luminous cup only exists in legends, not in reality. In modern society, when drinking red wine, you generally use an open tall glass, mainly to appreciate the color of red wine, and if you use a ceramic wine glass, you will lose this interest. The Tang Dynasty did not have transparent glasses, so they could only be replaced by glass cups.
Xiao Jiading turned his head to look at Tang Lin and said, "Boss, I see that this wine is as bright as a rose, very beautiful, if you pour it into this thick silver cup, you won't be able to see this beautiful color." Why not serve it in a glass cup? Isn't it okay to drink wine and feel the delicate color of this wine at the same time? ”
Tang Linjie applauded: "Your proposal is very good, change the glass cup!" ”
Soon, the glass cup was delivered, and a cup was sent to Tang Lin, he took it up and looked at it, through the light green glass, the original bright color became darker, becoming a kind of crimson, as if it was about to be half-coagulated blood, this color, all of a sudden, aroused the kind of male pride in his body, raised a sip, and drank it dry.
Immediately, he looked at the little crimson wine that remained in the glass glass, and couldn't help but laugh and say, "Happy! It's a pleasure! Da Lang's method is excellent! I will tell the Holy One, and drink this ...... in a glass cup as well."
Just said this, his words stopped again, and his heart was gloomy, this time he was demoted to Yizhou for no reason, and I don't know if it is possible for Lu Dao to see the Holy Lord again in the future, and if there is such an opportunity to tell the Holy Shang.
Seeing his gloomy expression, Ya Niang immediately changed the topic and said, "Is it good to drink this wine from a glass glass?" I'm going to drink it too! Replace the glass cup for everyone! ”
The wine in the glass glass has become a crimson blooming rose in the eyes of Ya Niang and Crazy Mei! Ya Niang liked it very much, looked at Tang Lin and said: "Da Lang, with this fine wine, if there is no poetry, wouldn't it be a waste?" Why not chant poetry? ”
"That's a good offer! Come on! Let's drink three cups first, so that we can feel it! With that, he drank three glasses in a row. The others followed suit.
Tang Lin said: "Da Lang, can you give you a song?" ”
Tang Lin looked at Xiao Jiading. Xiao Jiading knew that whoever was the first to chant poetry was particular, just like who made a speech on the wine field, such a senior leader was present, if this limelight was robbed by himself, it would be very uninteresting. He smiled and said, "Boss, you come first." We're listening. ”
Tang Lin smiled and said: "I'm a person, I like poetry, but I'm not good at it, and I don't have the talent of your seven-step poetry, brother, you just say a sentence praising the wine, it is a good poem,—— this wine should only be in the sky, and it is rare to smell it in the world!" Good! You can say that again! If that's the case, we're the fairies. Come on, come on! You, the poet immortal who became a poet in seven steps, will be good at giving poems again, and talk about this heavenly palace wine! It's better for you to come. ”
As soon as Xiao Jiading heard the title of Shixian, it was the name of Li Taibai, an old man who was flying outside the sky, even if he was thick-skinned, he didn't dare to take on this name, and hurriedly said: "This Shixian can't afford it, I'm still a wine worm, the wine worm is more cost-effective than the poet immortal." ”
Everyone laughed.
Ya Niang also laughed and trembled, covered her mouth and looked at Xiao Jiading, her eyes flowed, and said, "I just proposed to chant poetry, and that is for you...... Oops, both of you are Da Lang, easy to mess up, I'll still call you Xiao Lang, okay? ”
The title Lang is just a common name for men in the Tang Dynasty, and it does not have the ambiguous meaning of later generations, so they don't say anything unusual, but in Xiao Jiading's ears, it is peach-colored, and I can't help but think of Ya Niang's delicate lips and graceful body, but now that Tang Lin is here, he and Ya Niang seem to have a different relationship, so he can't show his intentions for her, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay." ”
Ya Niang pursed her lips and smiled, she was really full of spring breeze, and said: "Xiao Lang, don't shirk it, let me appreciate your talent for writing poems in seven steps." ”
Xiao Jiading listened to her sincerity, but it didn't seem to be polite, so he no longer shirked, got up with a glass of delicate wine, walked to the field, looked at the wine in the glass, and said: "The boss asked me to take this grape wine as the theme, I have been watching this wine just now, looking at it, I actually remembered the blood of the soldiers who fought in the border fortress and dyed the blood of the battlefield. How about I chant a poem for the border soldiers? ”
Xiao Jiading's words were in Tang Lin's arms, and he felt this way just now, so he applauded.
Xiao Jiading paced slowly, chanting the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Han's recitation of the seven unique wines:
Wine Luminous Glass,
If you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately,
Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled,
In ancient times, a few people came back to fight.
After Xiao Jiading finished reciting this poem, Tang Lin's eyes lit up and said, "Good poem!" I can't imagine that Da Lang can give Biansai poems, and he is so good, even those poets who really fight on the battlefield can't give you such good poems! ”
Xiao Jiading was very thick-skinned, although it was a plagiarized poem, he didn't blush at all, he just humbled a few words and drank a glass of wine.
Ya Niang said: "Such a good poem, if we don't drink, how can we get by?" Let's have a drink! ”
The three of them drank their wines as well.
After the waiting Hua Niang poured the wine, Ya Niang said: "Good wine, but you say it is blood, and it is a little scary to drink!" No, you'll have to chant it again! ”
Xiao Jiading and Tang Lin laughed.
Crazy Mei also said to Xiao Jiading with affection: "Yes, I don't dare to drink what you said, I have to give us a song, which is a punishment!" ”
Xiao Jiading's eyes rolled and he remembered a long poem by Li Shangyin, which contained a few sentences that were very suitable for plagiarism. Then he said, "That's good! Then I'll be ugly again. ”
He got up and walked a few steps, looked back at Crazy Mei, and slowly chanted:
There is a bright moon shining on it, and there is a spring breeze blowing below.
There are beauties, the color is like roses.
The singing is in the clouds, and there is no good match.
The young man was bitter for a short time, and Gu Muliang was difficult.
In vain, the pearl was put into the coral gills.
Jun is now and Shao'an, listen to my bitter poetry.
Who wrote the ancient poems, the boss was sad.
Ya Niang smiled and looked at Crazy Mei and said, "Did you hear that?" Xiao Lang confessed to you. I want to ask the matchmaker to marry you! ”
Crazy Mei was ashamed and happy, glanced at him, and said, "How can I have that blessing." As long as I can be by Xiao Lang's side all the time and listen to his poems, I will be a maidservant, and I will be content. ”
Xiao Jiading's poems aroused their interest, and under the influence of wine, they followed the poems and commented on the poems of their predecessors.
Before you know it, it's late at night. Several of them already have a taste for alcohol. Tang Lin said to Xiao Jiading: "I drank too much and my head was a little dizzy, let's go to the bow of the boat to blow." - Ya Niang, the night is cold and heavy, you and Crazy Mei don't go out. Don't catch a cold! ”
Ya Niang and Na Mei knew that they had something to discuss, so they obediently agreed.
Xiao Jiading followed Tang Lin out, and when he arrived at the bow of the boat, there was no one here, and the breeze was gentle, although it was cool, but he didn't feel it when he was drunk.
Tang Lin said: "Da Lang, how about being a scribe in the county government?" ”
"Everything was fine!" Xiao Jiading hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "By the way, I haven't Xie Lu Xie Boss for your promotion." ”
"Make the best use of your talents, you have this ability, I recommend it."
"I will work hard to live up to the boss's training."
"Hmm."
