Chapter 53 Wine Tasting

Yun Feiyang laughed, pointed to the shopkeeper's nose and said, "You old man, can you still eat your wine for nothing?" Go quickly, go quickly, don't delay time." Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't leave, just stood in place and laughed, Yun Feiyang sighed: "The countryside is not atmospheric. He turned his head to Zhang San and said, "Brother Zhang, if you don't pay him a jar of wine money first, otherwise you and my brother won't be able to taste this good wine." Zhang San smiled, nodded and said yes, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, took out one and handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "This is fifty taels, look at it." The surrounding diners exclaimed again, the shopkeeper only said that the two were drunk at the beginning, but he didn't expect Zhang San to really auction the money, although he hid this wine for 18 years, but the other party took fifty taels of silver, not to mention wine, even his small shop, can also be topped down.

encountered such a good thing, the shopkeeper smiled, thanked him repeatedly, and beckoned Xiao Er to go downstairs to carry the wine together.

Seeing the shopkeeper's expression, Zhang San frowned and shook his head, but Yun Feiyang smiled and said: "Brother Zhang, most of the rivers and lakes are like this, what they say is good, if they don't sell it, they don't sell it, as long as they see the silver, they have to sell it." The younger brother hates this kind of person who wants to be a **** and set up an archway in his life. After a while, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er came over with a large wine jar on their shoulders.

Most of the guests around the table are northerners, who have never drunk Shao wine, and have long wanted to see the famous 'daughter red' in this Shao wine.

The shopkeeper and his shopkeeper put the wine jar on the ground, the shopkeeper opened the wine stopper, and suddenly a fragrance came to the nose, and everyone exclaimed: "It's so fragrant!" Yun Feiyang laughed, poured a bowl of wine for Zhang San, and said: "Brother Zhang, this wine is the best in the world, you can taste it." Zhang San felt the aroma of the wine when he first smelled it, and took a sip, but he felt that his mouth was mellow, and praised: "It's really a good wine!" Yun Feiyang poured himself a drink, took a sip, and asked: "Brother Zhang, do you know the origin of this 'daughter red'?" Zhang San smiled and said: "Little brother really doesn't know that there is this wine in the world, let alone the origin." Yun Feiyang saw that he spoke straightforwardly, and liked it in his heart, so he laughed and said, "Brother Zhang is quick to talk." Then he turned his head and asked the onlookers: "Do you know?" Everyone gossiped, but they heard Yun Feiyang shaking his head again and again, he ate a mouthful of fat chicken, and drank a sip of wine, and then said slowly: "'Daughter Hong', also known as 'Huadiao Wine'." Someone around shouted, "I've heard of this." Yun Feiyang nodded and continued: "The Shangyu people of the Jin Dynasty recorded in the "Southern Grass and Trees": 'Daughter wine was a necessity for the rich family to give birth to a daughter and marry a daughter in the old days', speaking of this name, but there is a story! Once upon a time, there was a tailor master in Shaoxing, who wanted a son when he married his wife. One day, when he found out that his wife was pregnant, he was so happy that he hurried home in high spirits, brewed a few jars of wine, and prepared to entertain his relatives and friends when he had a child. Unexpectedly, his wife gave birth to a daughter. The tailor was patriarchal, so he was naturally very angry, so he buried a few jars of wine under the osmanthus tree in the backyard. Time is like an arrow, the daughter grew up, born smart and clever, and actually learned the tailor's craft very proficiently, and also learned to embroider well, and the business of the tailor shop became more and more prosperous. The tailor saw that it was good to have a daughter, so he decided to marry her to his most proud apprentice, and happily married her daughter. On the day of marriage, the tailor drank very happily, suddenly remembered a few jars of wine buried under the osmanthus tree more than ten years ago, and dug it out to entertain guests, as a result, as soon as the wine jar was opened, the aroma was tangy, the color was strong and the taste was mellow, and it was extremely delicious. So, everyone called this wine

"Daughter red" wine, also known as "daughter wine". After that, when the next-door neighbors, people from near and far, gave birth to daughters, they made wine and buried it, and when they married their daughters, they dug up wine and invited guests, forming a custom.

Later, even when he gave birth to a boy, he also drank wine according to wine, buried wine, and hoped that his son would celebrate and drink when he won the champion, so this wine was also called 'champion red'.

"Daughter Red" and "Champion Red" are both old wines that have been stored for a long time, firstly, the wine itself is particularly fragrant, and secondly, with the meaning of this, it will naturally have a unique taste when drinking. Yun Feiyang drank and spoke, Zhang San also listened to it with relish, and when Yun Feiyang finished speaking, the two of them had already drunk a whole bowl, and Zhang San wiped his mouth again and again, shouting that it was enjoyable.

Zhang San saw that the diners around him were also attentive, and a few people stared at the wine jar, swallowing a few saliva from time to time, so he said to Yun Feiyang: "Brother Yun, we can't finish this jar of good wine, so it's better to invite everyone to taste it together." When everyone heard this, they all smiled and clapped their hands, and Yun Feiyang smiled: "This wine was invited by Brother Zhang, so it is naturally the master." Zhang San smiled and beckoned the shopkeeper to put a bowl on every table around, and the shopkeeper saw that Yun Feiyang was strong at the beginning, but the two of them were drunk, but they didn't expect it to be a high roller, and they responded happily at the moment, and they were very busy.

In a blink of an eye, a jar was at the bottom, Yun Feiyang saw Zhang San's face flushed, and asked, "Brother Zhang can have fun?" Zhang Sanchang is so old and not as happy as today, it is a good wine, and it is held by everyone, although it is also a good wine and good food in Chen's Mansion that day, and the stars hold the moon, but it is not as bold as today, and he took out a silver ticket from his arms, called the shopkeeper and asked: "But there is still a 'daughter red'?" The shopkeeper has a total of two altars, and when the two of them beckoned everyone to drink, he informed the shopkeeper, and at this time, the shopkeeper saw Zhang San and asked himself, and said with a smile: " There is also a jar, can the guest officer ask for it?" Zhang San slapped the silver ticket in his hand and shouted, "Come up quickly!" The shopkeeper answered, and ran to carry the wine.

Yun Feiyang smiled: "Brother Zhang also knows that this wine is delicious. Zhang San said: "If it weren't for Brother Yun today, how would I know that there is such good wine." Yun Feiyang smiled and didn't make a sound.

The two of them were pulling around, and the clouds were flying again during the banquet

"Salt-boiled bamboo shoots" and

The two dishes of "bad chicken", the shopkeeper was surprised again and again, and he praised Yun Feiyang as an expert in drinking Shao wine. Zhang Sanqi and Yun Feiyang said with a smile: "Brother Zhang doesn't know, Shaojiu has four famous products: 'Yuan Red Wine', 'Jiafan Wine', 'Good Wine' and 'Xiangxue Wine'. Shaoxing people also have a set of what kind of wine to drink, what dishes to go with. Most of the 'rice wine' is served with cold cuts and crab. In late autumn, the business of restaurants in the city is booming, and the so-called 'autumn chrysanthemum shows crab fat, and when the chela is fat, the cup holds the chela and tastes the wine' is exactly like this. 'Good Wine' is often served with beet cakes, 'Yuan Red Wine' needs to be accompanied by chicken, duck meat and eggs, and 'Xiangxue Wine' is used by many Shaoxing people to drink cold water in summer. Brother Zhang, guess what kind of wine the two of us drank this 'daughter red' belonged to?" Zhang San was drinking at this time, listening to Yun Feiyang ask himself, he thought for a while before replying: "Could it be that ...... 'Yuan Red Wine'?" Yun Feiyang laughed, exaggerating San's cleverness, and continued: "In Shaoxing people's wine dishes

"Bad chicken" and

"Salt boiled bamboo shoots" two are the most famous, the bad chicken is a fat tender line chicken, the clear soup is cooked, cooled and cut into pieces, rubbed with salt, placed in the jar, covered with aged sake lees, eaten after seven days, the chicken is fragrant, and it is not suitable for the wine to eat...... "When he said this, he stared at the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper smiled: "The guest officer can rest assured, the guest officer can rest assured, the small one usually has the habit of drinking two sips of Shao wine, and naturally there is a prepared 'bad chicken'." Yun Feiyang nodded, and when he looked at Zhang San again, he was already drunk on the table.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang San felt someone shaking him, and opened his eyes in a haze, but it was the shopkeeper, only to hear him keep calling: "Guest officer, guest officer." Zhang San seemed to wake up in a daze, as if he was asleep, his eyes were worried, and he asked, "What?" The shopkeeper smiled: "Guest officer, the shop is about to close." Zhang San didn't hear clearly at first, and when the shopkeeper said it again, he got up and said, "What about my friend?" The shopkeeper asked, "You said the master who was with you?" Zhang San nodded, and the shopkeeper said: "The master saw that you were sleeping soundly, and told the little one not to wake up the guest officer, so he left alone." Zhang San asked, "Where did you go?" Zhang San saw that it was dark outside the window, and there were no more diners in the store, so he thanked the store partner and walked towards the store alone.
