Chapter 110: Winemaking

The wine and food were sent up like flowing water, four meat and four vegetarian plus a soup, four meat and four vegetarian are two hot dishes and two cold dishes each, with complete collocation, rich variety, it can be said to be very thoughtful.

Thanks to Zhang Taisui's guidance standing on the side, the chef in charge, who secretly observed the situation in the room through the gap in the window, secretly cast a grateful look at Zhang Taisui. Who is Zhang Taisui? It can be called the number one master in the Ninety-Five City, but can it be weak? As soon as the imperial chef came, he sensed it, but he knew in his heart that these cooks were suffering from gains and losses, so he didn't mention it.

"Father-in-law Zhang, you go to the wine cellar and take out the jar of good wine from Goryeo, and everyone drinks it together." Ji Xiu looked at the dishes on the table and was happy, a large table was full of good dishes for wine, and between the hot steaming, the aroma was overflowing, which made the wine worms in his stomach come up.

Yun Zangfeng was already too hungry to do anything, and at this moment, when he smelled the aroma of food, his stomach couldn't stop growling.

Ji Xiu also discovered Yun Zangfeng's embarrassment, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Nephew doesn't have to be formal, if you're hungry, eat first, let's eat and drink and talk while drinking." ”

Yun Zangfeng didn't intend to be polite, but the elders were sitting in front of him, and the rules that should be followed still had to be observed, and when he heard Ji Xiu say this at this time, he was naturally like a general who had received a military order, and grinned. Yun Zangfeng agreed with a smile and a "huh", and opened his stomach to eat and drink.

"Father, don't look at Brother Yun's well-proportioned figure and delicate appearance. If he does eat it, I'm afraid there won't be enough of it on your table for him to eat. It was rare for Ji Bu to have the heart to make a joke about Yun Zangfeng, and it seemed that staying by his Lao Tzu's side made him feel very at ease.

Ji Xiu laughed and said: "If Yu'er says something, don't say anything else in the Ninety-Five City, it's enough to eat esophagus." Today, Zangfeng's nephew can eat as much as you can, and the second uncle will never treat you badly. Come on, tell me to go down, all the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room have to wait in the kitchen today, and tell them to serve when they are served, and I will ask you if you neglect my nephew. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Taisui, who had just been instructed by Ji Xiu, led a few little eunuchs to walk in with wine. The mud seal on the wine jar had not yet been opened, and the two little eunuchs in Tsing Yi hugged an urn together and carried three altars into this room. Fortunately, there is no other benefit in the place where the emperor eats, it is the benefit of a big character, otherwise as soon as the three jars of wine come in, the room will look a little cramped.

The eunuchs put down the wine jar steadily, bent down and walked out backwards, Zhang Taisui is an inner eunuch, and he is not qualified to sit down and eat with you, so he can only stand aside and serve.

However, it seems that Zhang Taisui, who frightened the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, has long been accustomed to this kind of life, and he is familiar with standing behind Ji Xiu. The mud seal of a wine urn next to it was opened, and in an instant, a strange fragrance rushed out of the wine urn like an eruption, and then was blown by the wind, and spread out in the room, blending into the air, making people drunk, stupid, and stupid.

Zhang Taisui took out a few small jars from the back of the room, and used a funnel to fill the wine from the wine urn into the small jar, and the pale yellow slurry flowed out of the wine grape and flowed into the jar along the funnel. After filling a whole jar, Zhang Taisui put the wine on the table.

Yun Zangfeng had already been hooked by the smell of wine in the air, and as soon as the wine jar was put on the table, he couldn't wait to hug it, of course, he poured a full glass of wine for Emperor Ji Xiu, the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, and then poured it for the second prince, and finally it was his turn and Hu Li.

Good wine has a characteristic, the wine fills the rim of the glass, overflows for three points without spilling. This means that a really good wine, when you pour it full and the rim is flush, you can add a little bit to it, at this time it will be slightly higher than the rim of the glass, but it will not spill. The wine that Yun Zangfeng poured for a few people was all like this.

Seeing this scene, Yun Zangfeng's eyes were reflective, and he immediately picked up his wine glass and said, "Yun Zangfeng respects the second uncle with a glass." With that, he drank all the wine in his glass.

"Tsk, this wine is a good wine, but it's a pity that it's a little clearer, not enough to taste and not enough to taste." Yun Zangfeng muttered to himself after putting down the cup.

Ji Xiu also picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. Putting down the wine glass, Ji Xiu said with a smile: "Nephew Zangfeng, you have to change your title." Uncle Ji, it should be like this, the elder is the uncle, the young is the uncle, the widow is slightly older than your father, you should call the widow the second uncle. ”

"Ah, it turns out that there is still such a saying, Yun Zangfeng has been taught." Yun Zangfeng hadn't thought of such a show before.

Ji Xiu filled himself with a glass of wine again, picked up the wine glass and put it in his hand to play, and said: "Let's talk about this wine again, winemaking pays attention to the combination of grain and water sources, mashes the grain, steam it with a secret method, and seal it in mud and cellar it for many years, which makes this wine." The wine of Goryeo, the food and water sources are not of the highest quality, and the techniques are not sophisticated enough, so naturally it is not as good as the wine of my Han and Tang dynasties. ”

"Back then, the seventh brother was the best to take this sip, and he also liked to make his own wine to drink. How can I solve my worries by chanting a few sentences sourly, only Du Kang can no longer hear it. I didn't expect you to completely inherit your father's good wine, or a tiger father without a dog. ”

Hearing Ji Xiu mention his father, Yun Zangfeng couldn't help but feel a little low, Ji was not good at observing words and feelings, and hurriedly said: "Father, if you keep talking, this hot dish should become a cold dish." ”

As the emperor, Ji Xiu is worse than his own children in terms of human feelings, so he naturally understands the meaning of Ji Bu's words, and hurriedly said: "Eat the vegetables first, eat the vegetables first, and the way to drink is to eat the delicacies with the wine." ”

From beginning to end, the two fathers and sons of the Ji family have been very good to themselves, and Yun Zangfeng is not easy to disobey their face. In addition, as a guest in the Ninety-Five City, the host's family spoke, and he had to do what to do, besides, he himself was hungry.

Hu Li also picked up the wine glass and took a shallow sip. This wine is indeed not a strong wine for Yun Zangfeng, a regular drinker, but for Hu Li, it is a little spicy, she spit out her small tongue, and exhaled "hahaha".

Seeing that Hu Li couldn't bear the spicy taste of Gaoli Gongjiu, Yun Zangfeng hurriedly sandwiched two mouthfuls of food for her, and said with a smile: "It's good to swallow it with mixed vegetables, but it's fragrant." ”

After eating the food, Hu Li felt much better, she said: "Where is the wine so good, I really don't know why you like this thing so much." It's spicy and hot, and it feels like your throat and chest are going to burn when you drink it, it's terrible. ”

The other three here are not only immortals in wine, but also gluttons who have been immersed in this way for a long time, and when they saw Hu Li's fledgling appearance, they couldn't help but smile at each other. I think this girl is pure in heart and extremely cute.

Yun Zangfeng thought of something else. Although the girl in front of her is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old beautiful girl, she is actually a demon girl of the fox clan, and it is really a little strange that she is so adapted to human diet.

He didn't speculate on his own, thinking that when he would find an opportunity to ask Hu Li.

Hu Li naturally couldn't participate in the discussion between the three of them, so he could only listen to it from the sidelines, holding a chicken leg in one hand and grabbing vegetables on the plate on the table with the other hand to eat. In Ji Xiu's stunned eyes, Yun Zangfeng shook his head a little helplessly.

Glancing at Yun Zangfeng's performance, and then looking at Ji Bu, who seemed to have become accustomed to it, Ji Xiu was a little confused. Yun Zangfeng is also very helpless, although Hu Li is smart and clever, but he has no talent in using chopsticks, and he can't teach him many times, but he still adheres to the consistent style of the fox clan, and uses his own claws to grab food to eat.

Of course, Yun Zangfeng did not give up the idea of teaching Hu Li to use chopsticks, which was an important turning point for this poor fox girl to integrate into human society. Ji didn't know Hu Li's true identity, so she wouldn't be surprised by this girl's rude behavior of not using chopsticks.

Neither of them told Ji Xiu anything about Hu Li, which did not mean that they were afraid that Ji Xiu would be frightened, and even Ji Bu, as the second prince, did not see too many dignitaries and nobles who bought the demon clan captured by the demon hunters as slaves. Ji Bu is still like this, Ji Xiu is even more accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, and there are even some small affiliated countries that pay tribute to some demon clans to win his favor.

It's just that Yun Zangfeng didn't want Ji Xiu to look at Hu Li with strange eyes. He felt sorry for this little fox who had lost his home, lost his parents, and suffered from human torture, not only physically, but also mentally, and the latter was often more cruel than the former.

Yun Zangfeng was afraid that Ji Xiu would look at this little fox and himself with strange eyes, and he was afraid that Hu Li would be stimulated by feeling the strange eyes, so he could only explain to Ji Xiu: "Second uncle, this friend of mine suffers from some strange diseases, can't see the light, and his mind is only eight or nine years old, so many times he will do things that can't be looked at with common sense, and please bear with me." ”

Ji Xiu said: "That's okay, the widow is also the king of a country, how can he be like a little girl." You think of the widow as too narrow-minded. It's just that she may not be your friend, if it is an ordinary friend, how can you risk being pointed at and leave a stupid little girl by your side, just afraid that it is your sweetheart, right? ”

"Second uncle, you misunderstood, she just ......" Yun Zangfeng was a little helpless about Ji Xiu's association, and halfway through his words, he didn't know how to explain it.

Ji Xiu laughed and said, "It's just, just what?" There's nothing to say. Young people, it's normal for men to love women. The widow was also young, and now he is not old, and he has also liked other people's girls, and he has also been crazy about love, which is understandable. You don't have to explain, I'll find the best doctor in a moment and show the girl if she is still saved. ”

Ji Bu looked at Yun Zangfeng and was deflated, he seemed to be very happy, he was still eating in his mouth, so he laughed, fortunately he reacted quickly, otherwise the residue in his mouth would have sprayed a table.

Ji Xiu glared at the gaffe Ji Bu, and Ji Bu hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, father, it's the son's son who has lost his temper." It's just that there is really no need to ask the imperial doctor to come and see it, in the Ma family, we have troubled the old man Ma Di to see it, the medicine stone has no spirit, and it can only be taught slowly by Brother Yun himself. ”

Yun Zangfeng glared at Ji Bu hatefully, but Ji Bu replied with a "thank you me yet" look. Ji Xiu looked at the two of them, and no longer delved into the meaning of Ji Bu's words, but said: "Okay, you young people are making your young people's reputation, and the widow will not participate." ”

Yun Zangfeng and Ji Bu were relieved and generally smiled, but Hu Li just stared at Ji Bu and Yun Zangfeng, who were squeezing their eyebrows like monkeys, full of doubts, and their hands covered with vegetable soup slid in the air.
