Chapter 182: Food and Wine
In the past few days, she has gone out on the pretext of going to Tianqin Garden to attend classes.
Now that Mr. Wang Caiwei is teaching in Tianqin Garden, Mrs. Yuan really found a few women from the Yuan family to come over to listen to the class, which is exactly what Wei Ruo said to the family before.
It's just that Wei Ruo himself skipped class more often than before, and Mr. Wang Caiwei didn't say anything about it, but just said that some things are better than learning textbooks.
Wei Mingting didn't doubt Wei Ruo's answer, and then said to Wei Ruo: "In the past few days, a colleague from Xingshan County has brought me news, those people in the south of the city are fine, Qian Zhi County has settled them well, you can rest assured." ”
These days are getting colder, and Wei Mingting knows that Wei Ruo cares about those hard-working and poor people, so he specially relayed the news to her.
"Well, it's good that they're okay, I hope they're all safe." Wei Ruo was also happy for those old people and children.
Then Wei Qingwan also arrived.
These days, she has also started classes again, and she went to the house of the same knowledge, leaving early and returning late every day, very diligent, and she had just arrived at the house when she had ordered food in the past, and she came back early today.
Seeing Wei Mingting, Wei Qingwan lowered her head and asked for peace softly: "My daughter has seen her father, and her father has worked hard recently." ”
"It's not hard for a father, Wanwan doesn't have to worry about it." Wei Mingting said.
"How many days can Daddy rest when he comes back this time?" Wei Qingwan said with concern.
"I'll go back to the barracks tomorrow after dinner." Wei Mingting only got two days of vacation, and in order not to delay things, he only rested at home for one night.
Hearing this, Wei Qingwan looked at Wei Mingting with a distressed expression.
Looking at his daughter's concerned eyes, Wei Mingting's heart was warm.
Wei Yilin came late, and he was sweating profusely when he came.
"Daddy! I learned a new knife technique today! Master said that on the battlefield, the knife is better than the sword, and the sword is a showcase, not as fierce as the knife! ”
Without waiting for Wei Mingting to ask about his current situation, Wei Yilin began to talk about his recent studies.
Wei Mingting was very pleased: "Well, your master is right, on the battlefield, the sword is indeed better than the sword, wait for dinner, let's go to the courtyard, dad to see if you have progressed." ”
"Good!" Wei Yilin agreed, looking confident.
Then the Yun family came, and asked Wei Ruo and the others to go back to clean up first, and then come back for a meal, especially Wei Yilin, a leather monkey, who practiced martial arts for a day, and was covered in sweat.
There are only five people who celebrate the festival at home today, Wei Mingting, Yun Shi, Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan and Wei Yilin, Wei Yichen and Wei Jin have not returned home, and the men and women who are separated from the table on the premise of the Yun family are exempted today.
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Mingting, thought about it, and then went back to Tingsong Yuan and brought back a jar of wine.
"Father rarely comes home, so let's drink some wine and relax."
Wei Ruo knew that his father never drank wine in the barracks, and only tasted one or two when he was resting at home, but he was really too busy, so he couldn't drink a few times throughout the year.
Looking at the wine jar that Wei Ruo moved, Wei Mingting's face couldn't help but feel a little more happy: "Ruo'er understands me." ”
Wei Ruo's wine jar looked rough and didn't look good, but Wei Mingting knew that his daughter's wine was a good wine that couldn't be bought anywhere else.
Saying that, Wei Mingting stretched out his hand to pick up Wei Ruo's wine jar.
Wei Ruo's hand was withdrawn, and he said first: "Father drink and drink, but don't be greedy, don't get drunk, drink pleasantly, get drunk and hurt your body." ”
"Yes, I promise you for the sake of my father." Wei Mingting couldn't help laughing, this feeling of being controlled by his daughter was a warm experience that he had never had before.
Wei Ruo then gave the wine jar to Wei Mingting.
Wei Mingting opened the lid on it, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out, instantly filling the dining room.
"Ruo'er's wine is different from the last time?" Wei Mingting asked.
The bouquet is noticeably more intense.
"Well, last time we drank together, I took a lighter fruit wine, and this time I gave it to my father, and I took a stronger wine, so my father had to drink it slowly, otherwise he would be drunk and complain about me." Wei Ruo added.
The last time we soaked the fruit in a high-grade liquor with a relatively low degree of alcohol, this time it is the original high-grade liquor.
Hearing this, Wei Yilin, who was not yet an adult, came over and wanted to see the contents of the wine jar clearly, but he was not tall enough, and he couldn't see the situation in the wine jar after tiptoeing for a long time.
Fortunately, Wei Mingting had already taken the wine glass and scooped a spoonful into the wine glass.
The wine is crystal clear, with a mellow and rich aroma.
Wei Mingting took a sip, tasted it carefully, and then looked at Wei Ruo with a surprised look: "Ruo'er, this wine is also made by you?" ”
"Well, when you are in the country, you can make some wine, and sometimes you can sell it for money to buy some bedding or something." Wei Ruo replied.
"Ruo'er, your craft is worth a thousand gold!" Wei Mingting said.
Wei Ruo knew that Wei Mingting was not exaggerating when he said this, most of the liquor nowadays is still brewing liquor, and although the technology of distilling liquor already exists, it is only in the hands of a few distilleries.
Ordinary brewed wine has a low alcohol content, and the wine is yellow in color and cloudy.
Distilled spirits, on the other hand, can greatly increase the alcohol content, and the wine is rich in aroma and pure as water.
The price of distilled liquor is much higher than that of ordinary grain brewed liquor.
Wei Mingting had not drunk this kind of distilled liquor in the capital before, but during his tenure abroad, he did not have the opportunity to drink this kind of liquor again because he was in a relatively remote area.
Wei Ruo didn't answer, but said, "It's good if my father likes it." ”
Seeing her husband's joy, Yun's face also had a little more smile. Then she ordered someone to serve the food.
Among the dishes served, there are Wei Ruo's familiar marinated pork ears and braised pork, which Wei Ruo knew at a glance that it was produced by her shop.
Yun specially introduced this lo-mei to Wei Mingting: "Good wine also needs to be accompanied by good dishes, and today's plate of braised pig ears and braised pork is just for the husband to make snacks." ”
After Wei Mingting tasted it, he nodded: "This lo-mei is not only delicious, but also tastes good, and the chef has made progress recently." ”
Yun explained: "This is what I bought in the lo-mei shop in the city, this lo-mei shop is very famous in Fucheng, and the nobles in the city are frequent visitors to their house, I also listened to Mrs. Tongzhi, today my husband came back, so I specially bought it to try." ”
"It's really different from others, and it's much better than the lo-mei I've tasted before." Wei Mingting commented.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Mingting looked at the wine glass in front of him and said, "Today's Mrs. and Ruo'er can be said to have a good heart, one is ready to drink, and the other is ready to accompany the wine. ”
Yun said with a smile: "Mother and daughter are connected, Ruo'er is the daughter of me and my husband, and it is not uncommon for me to have a heart. ”
