Chapter Twenty-Nine: Fish Spring Brewing

Wenqu Building in the north of the city is across the street from Yuyang Academy.

In addition to the county government, there are also Yuyang Academy and many restaurants, tea houses, and rice houses in this area.

Yuyang is near the river to build a city, the Yueshui River meanders from the north of the city, the river surface is wide, and the water flow is turbulent.

There is a section of the ancient city wall here, the peach and plum are planted all over, in the spring of March, the flowers bloom like brocade, outside the wall is the Yueshui River, the literati bring the beautiful women to climb here to play.

The business of the restaurants here is very good, especially the Wenqu Building, which is close to the academy and has three floors, where you can eat and enjoy the scenery of the Yueshui River.

Yun Su and He Buyu took a few little guys and came to Wenqu Building.

"Master, please upstairs. ”

"Mr. Su, please. ”

Yunsu hugged Xiao Yu'er from Wang Xuanji's back, and everyone went upstairs together.

There are a lot of people eating in the restaurant, the third floor is a private seat, the area is very large, only a young man in Confucian clothes sat near the west window, Yun Su glanced at this person with some feelings, and did not say much.

The group sat in the east window, separated by some furnishings in the middle, so that even if they talked about each other, they would not affect each other.

"Mr. Su, the wind by the window is slightly stronger, but the scenery is extremely beautiful, it is better for you and me to drink by the window, and the little ones sit at a table alone. ”

"Good. ”

Yunsu has not tasted the wine of this world, and when he went upstairs, he saw that there were guests drinking, the taste was fragrant and long, and there was a faint taste of rice wine.

He Buyu is a regular customer here, and he quickly ordered the food.

It was the first time for the little guys to come to such a high place to eat, and they were very curious about the scenery outside, so they didn't dare to run noisily, but while enjoying the river view outside the building, they told the eldest sister interesting things about the academy.

"This is not a academy, so you don't have to be so formal. ”

Why don't you smile and say a word to the three little guys, and then talk to Yunsu Pan, talk about some Yuyang food and wine, and talk a little about the old things in Yuyang City.

"Two guest officers, five years old fish spring brewed a bottle. ”

Xiao Er neatly put a bottle of wine and wine utensils and snacks on the table, why not pull out the cork, poured two small glasses, the wine is beige, crystal hanging glass, a rich rice wine fragrance spreads, soaking people's hearts, drunk before drinking three points.

"Good wine!"

Yunsu took a sip of it, only to feel that the entrance was fresh and full of pulp, like a faint warmth flowing into the abdomen, leaving an aftertaste between the lips and teeth, and a long aftertaste.

Compared with the sake I have drunk before, it does not have that sweetness, but it retains the fragrant and glutinous taste, and it is fresh and refreshing, and the degree is much higher.

Compared to those high-grade baijiu, the alcohol content is much lower and less spicy, between home-brewed rice wine and distilled baijiu.

"There is also a legend about this fish spring brewing, more than 200 years ago, a winemaker found a strange spring in a river valley more than 40 miles outside Yuyang City, and when it joined the river, countless fish scrambled for it, and it was like this every day.

Later, the winemaker tasted the spring water and felt that it was very suitable for winemaking, so he settled in the valley and built a cellar to make wine, which was named Yuquan Brewing. It's a pity that the spring is not big, and there is too little wine, so I bought it in eighty percent of the next year. ”

"As the saying goes, poetry and wine articles, and good wine for literati is an elegant thing. ”

"I'm ashamed, but it's because every time I drink the divination, it's unusually accurate. It's a pity that there are only five-year-old fish springs here, and if it is a ten-year-old, or even older, it is rumored to be like drinking elixir. ”

"Oh, if it's that magical, I'll try it later. ”

Yun Su smiled, not because he was addicted to alcohol, but because this wine was really delicious. The three appetizers are sauced pork, kimchi and a plate that looks like peanuts, but with slightly smaller fried mud beans.

Not long after, the dishes are all on the table, three meats, two vegetables and one soup, all of which are the signature dishes of Wenqu Building, the dishes on the two tables are the same, a few little guys are hungry and hungry, and they will eat with their heads buried in it.

"This river is a good scenery. ”

Yunsu drank and ate vegetables while enjoying the scenery outside, the ingredients of these dishes were good, but the method was a little different, and he felt that the dishes were average, and the wine was much better.

"At this time, it is a good scenery, and in March the river swells, and the people along the way suffer disasters every year, and the north wall is built so strongly, it is also for flood control. ”

"It is rare for the master to be prepared for danger in times of peace. ”

"What does Mr. think of Yuyang?"

"Su has just come down the mountain, I don't know the general trend of the world, but I just feel that this Yuyang businessman is like a cloud, the city is strong, the officials are not vicious, they have never seen anything disturbing the people, they pay attention to the law and rules, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. But there are also some tragic cases of selling themselves to save their fathers and abandoning their sons and daughters. ”

Since going down the mountain, the Yuyang City that Yunsu has seen is much better than he imagined, chaotic and lawless, and the officials of the city have made the people fish and flesh much better.

After experiencing the catastrophe of the Xuanmu faction, I thought that Yuyang City was also very chaotic, and there have been a lot of strange people these days, but it is still peaceful, and I can barely count the monks of the human race only to see a Qingshan Daoist who cheats people and eats oranges.

The fox marriage in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, although there are many different species, but it is not enough to mention, the old fox claims to have cultivated for nearly two hundred years, but the demon power is just commonplace, and the strength of the city god land is between the two middles, but in Yunsu's view, this person is average, how long he cultivates does not mean how many ways he has, and the Tao is still a relatively general feeling compared to the realm, and he himself does not dare to claim two hundred years of Taoism.

In addition, some of the people in the rivers and lakes I see on weekdays are mostly nursing guards, and there are occasionally a few practitioners, and it is rare to see real masters.

"Now the Dacheng dynasty is clear, the treasury is full, and the people live in peace, on the one hand, because the king is old and strong, and on the other hand, because of the king's prime minister. The prince implemented the law and made great efforts, not only advocating education, persuading agriculture and mulberry, but also attaching importance to commerce and trade, although it offended many people, but it made me look new. ”

He Buyu said words of praise while sighing.

"Dacheng has such a capable minister, why does the master sigh?"

When Yunsu went shopping before, I occasionally heard people say that the countryside was measuring acres of land, and the county government was ready to clarify the tax system.

"In the next moment, my hands are itchy, and I also calculated a hexagram for the prime minister of the king, which is a little bad. I have been watching the stars for more than a month at night, and I am afraid that it will be ......"

Why don't you just shake your head and say nothing.

"The master is not in the court, but he cares about the world, but he is not in his position and does not seek politics, you and I can only be spectators. ”

"The gentleman has a point. Exactly, drinking. ”

Why don't you talk a little sullen, and after a few glasses of wine, you get better, and change the topic.

"At this time of year, Yuyang City is the most lively, after the bitter cold of winter, how many talented and beautiful people, the rivers and lakes began to tour the rivers and mountains, walking the rivers and lakes. ”

"Fresh clothes and angry horses, walking the rivers and lakes, maybe it's because spring has arrived. ”

Yun Su seemed to remember a little bit of the past, man is still an animal after all, but it is much more advanced.

Why don't you understand the stalk of this spring, the two chatted, the sky gradually became dark, and after a gust of cold wind, it rained outside.

Yuyang City in the rain, the scenery is more chic, a peach blossom rain did not drive away those who played, a handful of oil paper umbrellas stretched out, walking in the rain, many talented and beautiful people took the opportunity to snuggle under the umbrella.

The light rain hurried into the streets, five young men and women, the first of whom was about twenty years old, and the other four were only fifteen or sixteen years old.

These five people were incompatible with the people around them, their faces were either rebellious, indifferent, or contemptuous, all dressed in cyan brocade clothes, embroidered with some kind of sword pattern, each carrying a sword, several people discussed a few words, and went straight upstairs.

"What do you think, sir, of these people?"

Two cups of fish spring stuffed belly, why don't you say a little can't help it, and don't shy away from it, a pair of hands whiter than a woman can be counted in front of you.

"They're all quite young. ”

Yun Su didn't deliberately look at the aura of these people's lives, the streets were full of people, and he didn't have such a hobby as He Buyu, just a glance at the past.

Compared with ordinary people, these five teenagers can be called full of internal strength, their qi and blood are not weak, and the swords on their bodies also have a murderous aura, they have all seen blood, not like goods.

There is no grievance in the body, and there is no murder. However, the person at the head has already cultivated a trace of righteousness, either because he is upright, or because of his martial arts training.

"I'm afraid these people are going to be unlucky today. ”

He Buyu is a little vague when talking about the affairs of the court, but he is very neat when he talks about other things, and he does not shy away from it at all.

Yunsu didn't bother to calculate and look at their blessings and woes, just drinking and eating, and whether it would be fulfilled or not would be known later.
