Episode 114: Little Er, Wine (Subscription Requested!) )
Clean stone streets, simple houses, pure people, Huai'an, this is an ordinary town.
The sunshine of July shines on the only long street in this town, on the green cloth signboard of the only liquor shop on this street, and on the three words "Taibaiju" on this dilapidated signboard.
Ding Xiu strolled from the other end of the street, he was not an ordinary person after all, even if he walked under this hot sun, he could still be leisurely, the pure yang true yuan slowly circulated in his body, absorbing the fiery breath, and his body was cool.
He stood at the door of the wine shop, there was no one inside, so he opened the bamboo curtain and walked in, compared to the scorching sun outside, the inside was slightly dim, on the left counter, the shopkeeper was lying there, it seemed that he had fallen asleep, opposite the counter, in a small space, there were more than a dozen tables, which seemed a little crowded.
At this time, there were no customers in the wine shop, and the dozen or so tables were empty, except for Xiao Er, who was wearing a crooked hat, and was napping on the table while guarding a very poor guest at first glance.
Ding Xiu was somewhat disappointed that he didn't see the Weiyuan dart game as he wished, but he was not disappointed for long, because he was soon attracted by the poor-looking guest.
This man is so poor that he is estimated to have a fight with the disciples of the beggar gang of dirty clothes, not only his clothes are ragged, but even the straw soles on his feet are worn out, at this moment he stilts his feet on the table, revealing two large holes in the soles of his shoes, but he doesn't care, he leans against the wall, stilts his feet, squints, his eight-foot long body, sitting in the corner of this small wine shop, like a tiger with a lazy head.
The sunlight shone obliquely from the outside, shining directly on his two thick eyebrows, on his angular cheekbones, and on his miserable beard.
Suddenly, as if he sensed something, he couldn't help frowning, opened his eyes from half sleep, and immediately found that there was an extra person next to his table.
"Excuse me, can you take a seat?"
The person who came was none other than Ding Xiu, and as he spoke, the Miao Dao nightingale on his shoulder had already landed, and with a sonorous sound, it broke through the floor and sank into the ground, which was three feet, but even so, the exposed part was still three feet.
Because of the shock, the rusty iron sword in the poor man's hand suddenly jumped up, but fortunately, although the poor man looked lazy, he moved quickly, and as soon as he raised his hand, he grabbed the iron sword that jumped up in his hand.
He leaned his sword back on the table, and then the poor man asked Ding Xiu with some curiosity: "There are empty tables everywhere in the wine shop, why do you have to come and sit with a sloppy poor ghost like me?" ”
Ding Xiu replied with a smile: "It's because there are empty tables everywhere else that I came to sit with you." ”
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, the poor man couldn't help but be stunned, then reacted, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that Your Excellency must be a person who can drink, in that case, please take a seat." ”
"Thank you."
Ding Xiu sat down in response and sat opposite the poor man, he said with a smile: "People who drink alcohol are the most taboo to drink alone, because this kind of wine is too boring to drink, and it is rare to have fate, I will invite you to drink when we meet today!" ”
"That's a good feeling."
When the poor man heard this, he immediately laughed, he had been shy lately, and he was worried that he had no money to drink, and now there were people who wanted to have a treat, which was really a good thing.
Ding Xiu saw that he agreed happily, and the smile between his eyebrows and eyes became stronger, and then he didn't say a word, and directly raised his voice and called: "Little Er, serve the wine!" ”
At this time, the shopkeeper had been awakened by the nightingale, smelled Ding Xiu's words, and hurriedly stepped forward, no better than the poor man, although Ding Xiu was not wearing any brocade clothes, but he was also a handsome young man, he naturally didn't dare to slack off: "Dare to ask the guest officer what kind of wine he wants?" ”
"Do you need to ask?"
Ding Xiu said without hesitation: "Take out the best wine in your store, by the way, and make a few good appetizers, you don't have to worry about money." As he spoke, an ingot of ten taels of silver had already been slapped on the table by him.
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!"
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly left, and after a while, he broke a few plates of hot dishes on the table, and at this moment, the shopkeeper personally went into battle, holding a jar of wine in one hand and a wine bottle and glass in the other hand, and sent it over: "Guest officer, the wine is coming, our pear blossoms here are white, but the best wine within a hundred miles!" ”
"Really?"
Ding Xiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Then I want to taste it, but this small wine glass is too childish to drink, go and get two big bowls, so as not to sweep away the wine between me and this brother!" ”
"Okay!"
The shopkeeper was not angry when he heard this, he immediately smiled, and hurriedly ran back, and after a while, he trotted back again, holding two large white porcelain bowls in his hands, and kept smiling on his face.
The poor man on the other side also smiled and said: "This Taibaiju is a time-honored brand, and the shopkeeper is also a good winemaker, so whenever I see someone with a good amount of wine, I will be a little more affectionate." ”
"I see."
Ding Xiu smiled and nodded, patted open the sealing mud, grabbed the neck of the altar, and poured a big bowl full of wine, this bowl of wine and wine was clear, the color was like white jade, at a glance, it was quite tempting, and the mellow aroma gushed out, wafting throughout the room, endlessly.
"Please!"
As he spoke, he saw a gentle push of his palm, which was obviously not touched, but he gave birth to a force and steadily pushed a bowl of wine in front of the poor man sitting on the opposite side.
"Thank you!"
The poor man was not polite, I saw him pinching the edge of the bowl, holding up the big bowl, looking up to the sky and drinking, but seeing the crystal clear wine pouring down, between breaths, a large bowl of wine was drunk by him, and then gently put down the empty bowl, his face was refreshed, and he praised loudly: "Good wine!" ”
"Brother Tai has a good amount of wine!"
Seeing that the poor man drank a big bowl of wine in one gulp, his face was not red, he was not panting, and he was obviously a good player, Ding Xiu praised and admired, and then lifted the altar and poured him full of wine, of course, the white porcelain bowl in front of him was not empty.
Putting down the wine jar and picking up the wine bowl, Ding Xiu smiled and said, "Come, I'll drink with you!" As he spoke, the wine bowl was brought to his mouth, and he drank with his head up, uninhibited, not under the poor man.
"Well, happy! Haha"
Seeing that Ding Xiu drank wine, his posture was not below him at all, the poor man seemed to have a bosom friend, put down the wine bowl heavily, wiped the corners of his mouth, and laughed long, a heroic and dry cloud state, showing wildness. Ding Xiu didn't say much, lifted the altar again, helped him fill it, the two touched the bowl lightly, brought it to their lips again, and drank the wine proudly.
After a few bowls like this, in the blink of an eye, a large jar of pear blossom white had been drunk for the two of them, Ding Xiu's face did not change, as if he was drinking water, and the poor man also drank more and more energetically, and said with a smile in his mouth: "This wine is drunk happily, a certain Yan Nantian, but I don't know the brother's surname?" ”
"Yan Nantian?"
Although he had already guessed a little in his heart, at this time, listening to the name of the poor man, Ding Xiu couldn't help but be stunned, and then reacted, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is the number one divine sword in the world, and it is disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
"Huh~~~~"
Hearing this, Yan Nantian hurriedly corrected: "Brother, this is wrong, today we are drinking friends, why should we care about those false names on the rivers and lakes, it will make people unhappy." ”
When Ding Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Yan Daxia is right, in Xia Ding Xiu, it is rare to have a fate, to be able to be a drinking friend with Yan Daxia, and be a big white!" With that, he turned his head and shouted in the direction of the counter: "Little Er, serve the wine again!" ”
