Chapter 12 The fragrance of the wine

The little white snake seemed a little unwilling, and blinked: "However, I still want to go and see, since we are all here, let's sneak over and don't let people find out." If someone finds out, let's just run!"

Brother Frog was a little helpless, he opened his mouth wide, and measured: "But you can run, I can't run, how do you see me running like this?"

After speaking, Brother Frog puffed out his big belly.

The little white snake was a little impatient: "Little fatty, why are you so verbose, when you get to the village, you can just hide, stay there and wait for me, I will sneak over quietly alone, take a look and come back!"

Brother Frog was a little speechless: "But, what if someone finds out? I don't want to lose my life in vain!"

The little white snake was a little annoyed, and glared at the black round eyes: "What if, there is no case at all! You are too unrighteous! I came all the way to find you, just to go out and have a look, and you don't accompany me!"

Brother Frog listened, his stomach was sour, if he was discovered, the little white snake could quickly slip away, although the little white snake had no feet, but the snake ran faster than the frog. Even though he had four legs, he could only walk slowly. As soon as he was discovered, in addition to being able to jump into the water to escape, he could only be trampled to death, so Brother Frog felt that this was too dangerous, and he was a little reluctant.

But since such a cute cute girl as Little White Snake wants him to accompany him to the village to see, if he doesn't agree, he really can't say it, he doesn't want to be seen as a coward by Little White Snake.

So Brother Frog coughed twice, and said boldly: "Forget it, I obey you, who made you look so cute." I'm not an unrighteous frog, Brother Frog will risk his life to accompany you today!"

Then Chubby and the little white snake swam across the river to the edge of the village. They walked along the embankment, and they didn't see a single person passing by along the way. Not far away they saw a large walled garden, in which some blooming bright peach blossoms peeked out of the wall.

The little white snake felt very curious, she had never seen these before: "These flowers are so beautiful, it looks like they must be good inside, let's go inside and have a look!"

Brother Frog was a little worried, but he didn't want to live up to the little white snake's wishes, so Brother Frog said slowly: "I heard that this is the Protector General's Mansion, let's be careful after we go in, there are many servants in his family, come and go, don't find out!"

The little white snake was already impatient, and casually promised: "Got it, Brother Frog, you will hide after we go in, and I will go for a walk alone and come back to you." ”

After saying that, the two of them found a big hole by the wall and got into it.

Walking into the garden, they were immediately amazed. The huge courtyard is full of pavilions and scattered with some rockery fish ponds. Some winding paths dot the courtyard, surrounded by countless exotic flowers and plants, and even the well-informed frog brother can't name them.

They hid under a rock, and saw a small pavilion in front of them, where several children were playing in the company of two middle-aged women.

On the circular stone table in the pavilion, some delicious cooked meats and drinks are placed.

One of the slightly younger women spoke: "Madam, is this the imperial wine that the emperor gave to General Huyan?

The gorgeously dressed middle-aged woman next to her hurriedly responded: "Yes, it is indeed the imperial wine given by the emperor to the general, or is it twenty years old! There are some side dishes to accompany the wine, please sister don't be polite!"

At this time, a boy who was playing next to him raised his head, stared at his big, round eyes, and said, "Mother, are you drinking imperial wine? Give us a small sip, too! I want to see what the imperial wine tastes like?"

With that, he stretched out his little hand to serve the wine glass on the table.

The gorgeously dressed lady hurriedly patted the child's outstretched hand: "Riich! What a disobedience! What kind of wine does a child drink! You are so naughty!"

Seeing that her mother refused, Ruiqi felt a little unconvinced: "It is said that the imperial wine rewarded by the emperor will prolong my life and live a long life, why can't I drink it?

At this time, the woman next to her hurriedly smiled and made a round: "Sister, let Ruiqi taste a small bite! Since the imperial wine is a good thing, let the children also see it!"

At this time, a few boys and girls next to him chimed in: "That's it!

Seeing that she couldn't resist everyone, Madame took a few small wine glasses and poured a little imperial wine into a glass: "Okay, okay, okay! Just taste a little, children can't drink, don't blame me if you're drunk and foreign-looking!"

Several children took the small wine glasses and thanked them repeatedly: "Thank you, Mrs. General!"

As he spoke, the children ran to the side and played a game of playing with their glasses.

The little white snake saw at a glance that the boy who took the lead was the little guy who threw the frog brother by the river earlier: "It turns out that he is from the General's Mansion to protect the country! His name is Ruiqi! It may be the son of the general's wife, no wonder he is so domineering, even adults want to let him!"

The little white snake and the frog brother hid in the grass and watched the children play the house game from afar.

The children held the small wine glasses and touched them for a while, then put them to their lips and dipped them, savored the taste of the wine, and then placed the glasses on the ground.

They weren't too far away from the little white snake, so the scent of the royal wine in the cup wafted into the noses of the little white snake and the frog brother with the breeze.

"It's so fragrant! This wine is so fragrant! No wonder Ruiqi said that drinking it will prolong life!" the little white snake smacked his mouth as he smelled the wine.

"Brother Frog, do you want to drink imperial wine?" the little white snake asked Chubby quietly.

"Quack, I'd like to taste the taste of the imperial wine, but we can't drink it!" Brother Frog was also a little greedy, and he couldn't help but swallow a big mouthful of saliva.

"Then let's wait, I'd like to drink a little too. The little white snake couldn't get enough of suggesting to Brother Frog.

After a while, the temperature was a little hot, and probably the general's wife and the woman felt that it was still a little hot to sit in the pavilion, so they beckoned the children to go back to their rooms to rest for a while.

They left the pavilion in one fell swoop, and the wine glasses and delicious things were still scattered in place.

When the little white snake saw that the opportunity had come, he waved his head and beckoned the frog brother to go up and taste the taste of the imperial wine.

When Brother Frog saw that there was no one around, and that no servant had come to clean up these things, he plucked up his courage and jumped up and ran with the little white snake to the little wine glasses on the grass.

They snuck up to the wine glasses, and there were still a lot of imperial wine left in the small wine glasses on the floor. It turned out that these children were also afraid that they would look foreign when they were drunk, so they only symbolically licked the taste of the imperial wine, and did not drink all of them.
