Chapter Ninety-One: Remembrance
Speaking of this copper furnace hot pot, Zhuo Qingtan's first time eating it was in Xianshan Daiyu.
At that time, Xie Yuci didn't seem to have any other preferences on weekdays, and he liked to drum up these mortal fireworks the most. Every few days, he would invite her to taste his latest research dishes or snacks.
Xie Yuci's craftsmanship is excellent, and after so many years, it has always been remarkable.
However, Zhuo Qingtan who ate this meal felt a little unsavory.
It's just that Xie Yuci seemed to be in great interest all night, and he also introduced many northland delicacies and allusions to her with great interest.
Looking at his appearance, it was as if he was really a mortal boy born in the Northland.
Zhuo Qingtan glanced at him lightly, and didn't bother to expose him.
However, when she was a mortal in this life, she often traveled and practiced in many places in Kyushu, and she had come to the north many times to subdue demons and eliminate evil, so she knew a lot about the north.
Xie Yuci is indeed not talking nonsense.
It's rare that he has just woken up, and he has already understood the changes in various places now.
Xie Yuci's interest was really good, and after the reception banquet, he actually carried two pots of high-quality wine, and asked Zhuo Qingtan to drink in the courtyard of Yiliju.
Zhuo Qingtan had no choice but to go to the courtyard with him after the banquet, and stood still next to a rockery under the pines and cypresses.
She was just about to sit down, but Xie Yuci suddenly touched her fingertips lightly, and then frowned and said:
"I saw that your fingertips were bruised, why are your hands so cold?"
Zhuo Qingtan paused slightly.
Before she could react, Xie Yuci had already waved her sleeves and conjured up several delicate and beautiful stove utensils and placed them around them.
Then he muttered, "This is much better."
Then, Xie Yuci turned his head to look at her.
"Yanzhou, it's good everywhere, but the climate is too dry and cold. Miss Zhuo's health is not good, but don't catch the cold again."
His dazzling phoenix eyes looked crystal clear in the moonlight, very bright and dazzling.
Even Xie Yuci is an existence that has been born since the beginning of chaos, but perhaps because he has been here for many years, he has always maintained a pure heart, and his eyes have always carried a clear sense of youth that has never dissipated.
Zhuo Qingtan looked at him silently for a moment.
Despite all the hardships he has experienced, it seems that his bones and pride will not be discounted, no matter how many setbacks and tribulations he encounters.
Especially when he looks at you seriously, a pair of phoenix eyes are bright and affectionate, sparkling, and infinitely sincere, making people can't help but want to believe all the words in his mouth.
The next moment, she turned her gaze away slightly, and said lightly, "In this way, then thank you so much."
Xie Yuci heard this, but he "fluttered" and was happy.
He glanced at her with a smile, and said in a manly voice, "Miss Zhuo, you are in your heart at this time, should you be scolding?"
Zhuo Qingtan said lightly, "Why do I want to scold you?"
Xie Yuci raised his eyebrows and chuckled.
"Naturally, he scolded me for being coquettish, and while saying that he was worried that Miss Zhuo would be infected with the cold, he forced the girl to drink wine with me in the middle of the night."
Zhuo Qingtan looked at him with a light smile, and said slowly, "Young Master Xie, you always ask questions with the established answers in your heart, so it's hard to say anything in this way. It's just that since the son has his own success in his heart, why bother asking."
"Huh?"
Xie Yuci looked at her in surprise when he heard this, and then sighed softly.
"Look at what Miss Zhuo said, it's a bit angry, Xie shouldn't be so domineering, right?"
Zhuo Qingtan glanced at him lightly when he heard this, and then shrugged his shoulders slightly.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and sat down calmly, and said lightly: "Gongzi Xie is not domineering, so he won't do much to put his beak in the bottom. Now I am sitting here, and I am looking forward to the order of Gongzi Xie."
Xie Yuci put the back of his hand against the corner of his lips when he heard this, laughed in a low voice, and then raised his chin and nodded at her.
"Miss Zhuo, although you haven't mentioned your dissatisfaction in every word, you have resentment in every word. This makes Xie a little ashamed and frightened."
Zhuo Qingtan sat generously on the stone chair next to the rockery, she slightly raised her white and jade chin, looked at the wine jug in Xie Yuci's hand, and smiled very lightly.
"How can a person as free and easy as Gongzi Xie be easily frightened? Childe wants to drink and enjoy autumn, so what are you waiting for? Wine."
Xie Yuci raised his eyebrows in surprise slightly, and then chuckled loudly.
He lifted the hem of his clothes in a dignified and uninhibited manner, and then sat down on the stone chair opposite Zhuo Qingtan.
"Miss Zhuo is so happy, but Xie is disrespectful."
Xie Yuci waved his hand on the stone table, and there were two more white jade empty wine glasses on the stone table in an instant.
Then, with his left hand, he held the long sleeve hem of his right elbow and raised his arm to fill the two empty wine glasses in front of him. Twist one of the cups and gently push it forward.
"Please."
Zhuo Qingtan took the wine cup calmly, and raised his hand to drink it all without a trace of hesitation.
Who knew that the next moment, she frowned and coughed violently.
"-Ahem, ahem! ...... Ahem!"
"Hey! You?"
Xie Yuci subconsciously leaned forward to support her, and then shook his head with some tears and laughter.
「...... What are you doing? The wine of the Northland is very strong, and you have never drunk it before, and you must be unaccustomed to it, how can you drink it so well?"
Zhuo Qingtan coughed very badly, and at this time, her cheeks, which were always cold and pale, were slightly flushed, but it added a bit of coquettishness that she didn't have in her daily life.
When Zhuo Qingtan's cough subsided a little, she frowned and lowered her head, looked at the empty wine cup she was holding in her hand, and asked, "What kind of wine is this, how can it be so spicy and spicy?"
Xie Yuci raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and replied with a smile: "It's obvious that you drank too fast, why do you blame the wine? Before Xie could stop it, Miss Zhuo drank it all as she could.
This wine is extremely strong, and drinking too much can easily make people fall asleep, and even forget where they are, hence the name "Look-forgetting"."
Zhuo Qingtan paused slightly, she squinted her eyes and looked at him thoughtfully, and then said slowly, "...... Mr. Xie, you invited me to enjoy the autumn wine tasting, did you taste this kind of wine that people don't know?"
Xie Yuci immediately "tsk" when he heard this.
He tilted his head to look at her for a moment, then sighed softly.
"Miss Zhuo, how can you look at Zai Xia with such eyes? Xie is not a virtuous villain."
He placed another flask in his hand on the stone table, and laughed loudly, "You have misunderstood me, I have already brought two jugs of wine. A pot is this "look-forgetting", and I just want Miss Zhuo to try it.
- As for the other pot of sake, it is called "Remembrance", which is the wine that Xie prepared for Miss Zhuo."
Zhuo Qingtan glanced at him lightly, and suddenly asked with a smile:
"Really? I just don't know, which is more likely to intoxicate people, this "remembrance" or "long-term forgetfulness"?"
