Chapter 230: Love is a Cage (2)

Shu Yan only took a dozen strings and tried them for his subordinates and friends, and handed over the rest to Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo can finally officially implement his winemaking plan. She sorted the grapes first, and kept the large and plump ones for eating the pulp directly, and also reserved some for the eldest princess of Yong'an and Dr. Xin and others; The smaller particles are used for sake brewing. Although the quality of the grapes is required to make wine, bigger is not always better. Because the larger the particles, the larger the moisture content, which will affect the sweetness of the wine during fermentation, so the smaller ones are more conducive to winemaking.

The grapes that are ready to be made are washed with water, and the bunches of grapes are pulled off one by one, and they are dried outside in the sun to remove all the water as much as possible. Prepare a clay pot for making wine, this clay pot must be clean, no water, and not a jar that has been filled with oil and salt. This is because oil and salt can seriously affect the winemaking process, and even after washing, the residue will affect the quality of the wine.

Xiao Mo found a brand-new clay pot, put the dried grape grains into it, and mashed it with a wooden stick. Don't put too much, just go to the upper chest of the jar, too full will affect the effect.

Lest Shu Yan not drink enough, the jar Xiao Mo found was very large, even if it was not too full, it would weigh a little if it was filled with so many grapes. She laboriously moved the clay pot to a shady place in the corner of the room, and sealed the mouth of the jar with a piece of fine kudzu cloth. At this point, the basics are done, all that remains is to wait for the right time, strain the residue, put the wine into the casks and let it brew quietly.

In fact, it is not difficult to make wine, but it is difficult to make high-quality and good-tasting wine. Although the previous series of work takes some effort, it has no technical content, and fermentation is the most critical link. The fermentation process needs to be controlled and adjusted according to the actual situation, which requires experience, which is exactly what Xiao Mo lacks.

But Xiao Mo himself has confidence.

Now, after all these things, I can finally rest. She sat on a bed and looked at the silent clay pot in the corner, as if it were not a jar of freshly mashed grapes, but a jar of rich wine. In a trance, she saw Brother Shu holding a large bowl of wine in both hands, not drinking it all, but putting it in the snort, first letting her nose enjoy the mellow aroma, and then tasting it in small sips. He quietly approached him and pushed the bottom of the bowl up with his hand, but Brother Shu was caught off guard and was poured into a big mouthful, choking until he coughed. He couldn't stop laughing, and said proudly and confidently: From now on, you don't have to be so stingy with wine, this whole jar is yours, drink it if you like, if you are full, if you are enough!

This is a scene that Xiao Mo has been looking forward to for a long time, and now it is about to come true, how can you not like it? has done so much for him, how can the other party ever ask for himself? Maybe the other party doesn't think it's a very important thing at all, but he does it with all his heart. Xiao Mo thought it was a little ridiculous to think about it, but he just went with the flow and did it willingly.

I was originally the little butterfly of freedom, how can I not escape your non-clingy cobweb?

Thinking of the situation during the day, he looked calm, sincere and stupid, and somehow he couldn't help but be shy to say the words "many children and many grandchildren".

Xiao Mo is both fond and depressed. Although the two people are close and have a strong relationship, they are based on brotherhood, but one day in the future, when the facts are broken, what will be the result? Will we rise from the current brotherhood to the relationship between him and Zhixin......

Definitely! It's only a matter of time, just the moment I get to the bottom of the facts. But how long will that moment come? Even the young seventeenth princess is about to get married, and her willing efforts over the years, all these years of blank waiting, this hurried passing years!

Thinking of this, she took out the purple jade flute, and sang while playing:

I'm a daughter,

Traveling in all directions.

Mountains,

water-stricken,

It's rare to meet a lover.

You are a son of the Han family,

Heroic and unparalleled.

Slavishness,

Jun is boundless,

I don't understand my heart.

Endure a thousand kinds,

Just for the companion of you.

May you have no second thoughts,

Mo Jiangnu's heart is sad.

Once true love,

Rejoice in pairs.

Strive for the courage of the king,

Don't dare to go into details.

Heyβ€”

What a beautiful girl,

How can it be so old and long!

Xiao Mo's grandfather was an official businessman in the Han Dynasty and a family of poetry and books. She doesn't think she thinks of herself as a Qiang person, but she has been influenced by her grandfather since she was a child, and she also has some cultural heritage.

This piece was originally taught by her to the Dawan woman in distress, and it was also written according to her own state of mind at that time. These days, especially after the identity and heart of the eldest princess of Yong'an, Xu Ding's family, and her daughter's body were exposed to Dr. Xin and the eldest princess of Yong'an, she added some emotions, and continued a few sentences after the original lyrics. Compared with the confused first love in the first half, the later continuation clearly shows her worry about unknown love and helplessness about the passage of time.

Yes, how much youth and how many years can a woman resist such uncommitted and unpredictable stupidity!

After a song, before I could close the flute, I heard someone push the door and say: "This idiot woman, it's so hard to wait!" ”

Xiao Mo was startled, opened the door and saw that it was the eldest princess of Yong'an, who hurriedly pulled her in, and booed: "Be quiet, don't expose me!" ”

The eldest princess of Yong'an listened outside the door for a long time, thinking about Xiao Mo's thoughts, and when she was excited, she forgot that Xiao Mo's identity as a woman needed to be kept secret, and she was busy covering her mouth.

"I'm going to get married, and I'm still so reckless."

"Why didn't you notice it before, but now it seems that you look like a woman everywhere!" The eldest princess of Yong'an stared at Xiao Mo and smiled.

"Come less, if I don't tell you, you'll never know. Especially you, who once even said that if I wasn't a eunuch, you would marry me. ”

The eldest princess of Yong'an blushed, shook her hand and said: "At that time, I was still young, and I was unscrupulous, not counting, not counting." ”

Xiao Mo also smiled: "Of course what you said to me doesn't count, what you said about liking the Shi family's son has really come true." ”

The eldest princess of Yong'an remembered that these two sentences were said by Xiao Mo herself in the year when she first entered the palace and became a treasure order. When Xiao Mo hosted the imperial banquet for the first time, she followed Xiao Mo to Lingyuntai secretly, saw Shu Yan and Biyu, and was fascinated by Biyu at that time.

"Speaking of the imperial banquet, I am here to ask you for something."

"What do you ask me for?"

"I think on my wedding day, you can go to Shifu to cook a few good dishes."

"Well, think about it too. If you marry into Shifu, we won't be able to see each other often, and we won't be able to taste my cooking. In that case, whatever you want to eat, I'll just make it for you every day for the past few days. Why wait until that day to go to Shifu to do it! ”

"Uh......" Princess Yong'an said weakly, "It's not that I want to eat anything, but I know that the Shi family has always liked your cooking skills." On the wedding day, inviting you, the great god chef, will not only satisfy his mouth, but also add a lot of luster to the Shi family, after all, everyone knows that you are not even willing to appreciate the faces of the kings and the three dukes. ”

When Xiao Mo heard this, he couldn't help but "bah" and said: "People haven't married yet, and their hearts are already yearning for others." Hey, okay, just for your face, it's cheaper than the surname Shi. ”

The eldest princess of Yong'an was very happy to see that Xiao Mo agreed. The two have been friends for many years, and they are like sisters in private, and they are about to get together less and leave more, so it is inevitable that they will be a little reluctant and talk straight until late. Xiao Mo gave Princess Yongan and Zhixin some grapes again, and they were separated.

After Shi Hui contributed to the Shang Lord's incident, the status of the Shi family was obviously high, and the scholars and doctors in the court all looked down on this new imperial relative, and even those who were jealous of the Shi family in the past did not dare to be blatantly hostile at this time.

Jia Gong, the chief of Yuzhou Dazhong, was stabbed in the back by Shi Hui because of Qiu Shoutai's corruption case and being a Yang party, so Jia Gong was very resentful of Shi Hui and secretly gritted his teeth to retaliate against Shi Hui. But now that the Shi family has become a royal prince, he has to be jealous of the Shi family and quietly hide this revenge. However, the original resentment was not gone, and I couldn't calm down. Thinking of the participants at that time, in addition to the Shi family being the mastermind, the root cause was Shu Yan's two letters, since he couldn't provoke the Shi family, this tone came out of Shu Yan.

Shi Hui, as the great Zhongzheng of Yuzhou, holds the power of evaluation of the whole Yuzhou people. Although each of the following counties also has its own zhongzheng, the final evaluation power is still in the hands of the state university. This is why Shi Huifei tried every means to get this position.

The state capital has a lot of power, but it is not good to directly criticize a small person like Shu Yan, it is better to do it through his hometown Ruyin County Zhongzheng. So Jia Gong found Shi Hui and knocked on Shu Yan.

Shi Hui is a smart person, and he quickly understood Jia Gong's intentions. After Jia Gong stepped on the big tree of Jia Mi, Shi Hui couldn't help but be jealous of him, although secretly he still didn't forget to rectify his original intention, but on the surface, he always thought about how to repair the relationship with Jia Gong, and now that the opportunity has come, what is it to sacrifice a Shu Yan!

With the "love" of the state and county levels, can Shu Yan's character be good? However, this evaluation period has not yet ended, and Shu Yan has not had any major officialdom or moral mistakes, so it is not good to demote him directly, and he needs to find another introduction.

Shi Hui knew that Shu Yan offended a lot of people when he was in charge of rectifying the driving atmosphere in this car government order, and the people he offended were all powerful people. These people must all have a grudge against Shu Yan, if someone is looking for Shu Yan somewhere in the court first, the two Zhongzheng will add a few words of slander to him in terms of conduct, and they will fall into the well, which is enough for Shu Yan to drink a pot. So he made a plan to Jia Gong.

Some people died, but not completely......
