Volume 1 Learning the Tao Chapter 24 Osmanthus Wine
After tasting the flavors of the world, you know the warmth and coldness of the world.
The boy is very happy to recognize the partners around him, the so-called ups and downs, but also like the treasures of the mountains, not to mention a group of people who will move the mountains and rivers of a continent in the future, not far away, when someone asks, he can be very angry and say to others: I know him, is my friend.
Get the osmanthus, full of loads, white and elegant, golden mellow.
Back in the backyard, the little boy Ai Xueyi had another wonderful water method, detaining the picked fresh osmanthus in a water balloon and keeping it in its original state without withering. Zhuang Yu knows that brewing osmanthus wine can not be exposed to the sun, and if the moisture is lost, the fragrance will be greatly reduced, and it is best to put fresh petals in the oven.
Get ready and wait for the pot to brew.
Zhuang Yu asked for a lot of sweet straw in the city, spread it in the soil culture, and then poured in the osmanthus to compact, without adding anything else, cultivated on a low fire for one night, put out the fire, and waited quietly for fermentation.
Waiting for the last three or two days to ferment, the fragrance of osmanthus wafted out, and it had to be attacked by fire, and the fire could not be broken.
Zhuang Yu specially greeted Li Lao twice, and it took two days. It wasn't until the second half of the night that the soil culture came out with a strong mellow smell.
Out of the wine.
It was the busiest moment, the little girl squatted at the mouth of the stove, licking the firewood, her little face was red from the test, squinting and dozing off.
Zhuang Yu took the prepared jar, picked up the first wine, and the clear and hot water flowed into the jar. But the boy knew that it was not yet time, not the best wine.
Jiang Man Wenjun was also guarding the side, watching Zhuang Yu busy coming and going, but he couldn't help much. Chen Bai'an was in charge of changing the water, and as soon as the pot was hot, he immediately knocked it out of the well and changed the water again, full of enthusiasm.
Ai Xueyi lit the lamp, read at night, and recorded the bits and pieces of Jiangman's winemaking.
At about the end of the hour, the drink was much smaller, like a drop of water. Zhuang Yu hurriedly changed a wine jar, and the good wine came, as beautiful as a sweet spring.
In the golden autumn, the night is deep and dewy, and next to the well in the backyard of the private school, the fire is in full swing.
Following.
Tu Pei put out the fire, Jiang Man Wenjun fell asleep against the steps, Ai Xueyi and Shi Xiaoke lay on the wooden table, and Chen Bai'an held the wooden bucket against the well, breathing evenly, and slept quietly.
Zhuang Yu didn't close his eyes all night, and used the last jar to hold the tail of wine, which was very light.
At dawn, I was able to rest, and it took a lot of effort to spend a lot of effort on four or five jars of osmanthus wine, which was worth it. Take the bamboo cup, slightly present a little tail wine, the entrance is still slightly hot, just right, a little light.
Zhuang Yu was very satisfied, the wine was not strong, not as spicy as a child, but it was very real, and he couldn't help but drink a small cup again, which was very fragrant.
The sound of Zhuang Yu moving the wine jar woke up Chen Bai'an.
"Zhuang Yu, are you all right?"
While speaking, he stretched his waist, the joints and bones around his body made a sound, and he ran over excitedly, picked up the bamboo cup and tasted it;
"This is wine, the taste is light, it's almost ...... than rice wine."
"This is the tail of the wine, naturally lighter, you taste the jar in the middle. Zhuang Yu replied.
Chen Bai'an pursed his lips and re-shot it. It's a lot thicker than before, but it still lacks the strength of the wine, and it's too light.
"It's not strong, are you mixed with water, or are you not good at craftsmanship?" the woman asked questioningly.
"The color of osmanthus wine is light yellow, the fragrance of osmanthus is prominent, the unique mellow fragrance, sweet and sour are palatable, mellow and soft, the aftertaste is prominent, and the natural strength is not allowed. ”
"Fortunately, there are so many golden cinnamon on the mountain, and the white cinnamon is brewed with such a good color, which is not bad. The teenager explained.
The first time I started making wine, it was good in every way.
Chen Bai'an was not idle, drank three big cups in a row, and became sleepy again, while talking in his dreams, he pulled the young man to accompany her to drink a little. It seems that some are drunk, the wine is not strong, but there is some stamina.
The cool breeze blows, and the morning is a little chilly. Ai Xueyi woke up slowly, and just looked at Chen Bai'an, who had fallen down again, dazed, and his face was flushed.
got up and greeted Zhuang Yu, walked to the wine jar, sniffed, and gave a thumbs up, but did not taste it. In his opinion, wine is a good thing, but if you make a mistake, it is easy to misunderstand knowledge. It is not unrecorded in the book, there are many poems praising and praising good wine, it is not that the wine is bad, but it is not feasible now, and it is left for the future, there will always be opportunities.
At the end of the day, Zhuang Yu woke up the little girl and slept not very well. A few days ago, I had to accompany Zhuang Yu, I was very stubborn, so I couldn't help it.
The light head wine, sweet and sour, very greedy, just some osmanthus cake on the two big bowls, after a simple wash, with red cheeks to go to the school to read. It was also the first time I was sleepy in class, so I fell asleep with light wine, until Xiang Wu was beaten and copied the book.
Zhuang Yu sealed the wine jar, picked it up and walked to the bamboo building as soon as possible, carefully placed it at the door, and left quietly without saying hello. The boy knew that Mr. Li was a great monk.
Li Jingsheng sat up, and when he opened the door, the figure of the young man was just covered by the trees in front of the door, and his steps were firm and resolute; with ordinary Taoism, he slowly held up the wine jar and hung it in front of him, he had not drunk wine for many years, and it was very fragrant.
He also agreed to discuss with Jiang Man, Wenjun, Chen Bai'an, Ai Xueyi and others, and buried them in a small altar waiting for the time to leave the mountain in the future.
In the same acquaintance Li Lao, housekeeper, Da Zhuang, innkeeper, little second brother, tea shop shopkeeper sent some, there is really not much left.
Chen Bai'an was very distressed, so he picked up his own meat and sent it outside, it was not good, and it was also reluctant, the woman might have forgotten that this wine was not hers.
In the middle of the night, Zhuang Yu sat in the small courtyard, in the house, the lamp was lit, and the little girl in black was seriously copying the book. I have been studying for more than half a year, and with the help of Ai Xueyi's literacy and writing, I can now write three points, and I can recognize it when I look at it. I copied it very late, so I nodded satisfactorily, went to bed, and tomorrow morning I had to take it to the gentlemen, so naturally I couldn't be sloppy.
The young man sat in the courtyard and made half a bowl of wine, which was the best osmanthus wine, not spicy, and the strength of the wine was not small.
picked up the small bowl and took a sip, a little too much, I couldn't help coughing a few times, tilted my head, and stared blankly at the round jade moon.
The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time.
I don't know how Ah Ye is now, now I can also make osmanthus wine, not strong, just right, very mellow.
On the long stone cliff of the mountain stream of Youlong Lane, a young man also sat on the ground, looking at the full moon in the sky, holding a thick pile of letter paper in his hand, full of handwriting; Zhuang Yu can now read a lot of words, are you okay.
Zhuang Yu looked at the full moon from afar, drank it all in one sip, the wine was not strong, his heart was uneasy, and he was a little upset.
I have a pot of wine, don't worry. I have a glass of wine, and I'm drunk and drunk. Raise a glass, don't worry, don't worry, and get drunk, and get drunk. A glass of wine, a drunk.
There is a pot of wine, which is enough to comfort the wind and dust. If you want to give it away for thousands of miles, the wind and moon are deep.
Li Jingsheng pushed the door into the small courtyard, Zhuang Yu was a little drunk, he couldn't get up for a long time, his face was flushed, and he was not drunk.
"Sir. Zhuang Yu tossed for a long time before getting up.
Li Jingsheng shook his head, didn't know what to do, and sat down.
"Zhuang Yu, everything is in a hurry, I hope you understand, sit down and say. "Looking at the swaying boy, it must be the first time he has drunk so much. Not much, I drank a little urgently.
"Although it is said that 'the road in the world is narrow and the wine glass is wide', there is no such way to drink, wine can eliminate sorrow, but also sorrow. After all, you are still young, so it is better to drink less. ”
The young man used the strength of the wine to swallow and vomit.
"Lee, Lee...... Sir, I just wanted to taste what it tasted like, but I didn't expect it...... I'm in a hurry. ”
Li Jingsheng shook his head, the young man in front of him still couldn't let go of his thoughts.
"Everything looks forward for three points, don't limit the present, the world is vast, everything has its own fixed number, why not see through and let go of yourself, there are other scenery in the world. For example, your sister, your classmate and friend on the mountain, ......" Li Jingsheng said very slowly, but begged the young man to listen.
"Yes, I have a sister, and I have a friend from the private school......" After saying that, he was completely drunk and lay on the stone table.
Li Jingsheng smiled, the night breeze was cold, and he sat with him for a long time, and the moon was very round.
simply put on a quilt and disappeared into the small courtyard.
The entire landscape enchantment of Changyou County is forbidden by Li Jingsheng's divine soul, and his heart is placed outside the house. What's more, the Taoism cultivated now is particularly water-friendly, and he can't get into the cold of the night.
When Zhuang Yu was asleep, he dreamed of the shadow of his childhood again, and Miao Qing tore and fought, grabbing the wooden man, but this time he didn't cry; Instead of being sad, he smiled exceptionally innocently.
It's really like that's the spring breeze knows my intentions and sends me into the south of the Yangtze River. ’
When drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of dreams and the galaxy.
The young man unknowingly, the things in his heart, the heavenly people, a few points. The spiritual light in the lotus in the dantian in the body is revealed, scattered like a hundred remains, the seven orifices are all connected, and the six senses are keen.
The burden in the young man's heart was a little lighter, and the lotus seed quietly took root.
At the same time, a woman in a certain ancestral hall in Liuyun Prefecture recruited one of her descendants, the mountains and rivers were pulled by luck, the sky was broken, the void thundered, the red lightning tore the mountain, and rushed to the beautiful woman, but was repelled by a punch, the black clouds dispersed, and the moonlight was seen again.
In the temple of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Great Le Fu Ling was unstable, and the lights on the table jumped and suddenly went out.
Following. The first-class Yunzhou descendant disciple quietly set off, and the eldest son of Daxia Yan walked out of the palace and left the sect. The two of them hid in the world, waiting for the five-year covenant, up and down the mountain, and the undercurrent was surging.
At the North City Gate, the young man is still the same, but now he is a little more sunny, open-minded, holding a small black bamboo cone, the slightest aura is pouring in, writing hard, flowing water and clouds, one hand is good at words, and the other hand is good at learning.
From a distance, he was full of energy, as bright as the morning glow, and he finally had a little happiness when he should smile.
Throughout the ages, there are eight wildernesses, the future is like the sea, and the future is long.
Where do you not meet in life, the young man is plain and content, even if there are thousands of rivers and mountains, there is a boat full of dreams that overwhelm the galaxy.
