Chapter Ninety-Six: Daughter Red and Bamboo Wine
"Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief, what the hell is your kid's idea?"
Uncle Blacksmith closed his eyes with satisfaction and enjoyed the delicious taste of bamboo wine, and tasted it for a while, then he opened his eyes and glanced at Shi Lei.
"Isn't this a tribute to a few uncles?" Shi Lei rubbed his hands and said.
Seeing the obviously unbelieving eyes of the blacksmith uncle, Shi Lei spread his hands helplessly.
"The quantity of this wine bamboo is relatively limited, only enough for our own drink, I don't think about how to grow some wine bamboo by myself, this needs your help, Uncle Blacksmith." Shi Lei said with a smile.
Since the last time he asked Uncle Blacksmith to help him create a large number of magic gold weapons, Uncle Shi Lei has always been a little unhappy.
Especially the two exquisite things that he worked hard to get for Cheng Chuyue, in the eyes of Uncle Blacksmith, it was a bit of a waste of his labor.
"I don't know how to grow bamboo, how can I help. You might as well ask the old butler about this, he is a good hand at tending to these strange flowers and trees. ”
Although Uncle Blacksmith doesn't like to deal with Shi Lei, in fact, when there is a problem, he is not helping to think of countermeasures.
Besides, the liquor produced by this kind of wine and bamboo is also beautiful for him to drink, and he can produce more points, and he can also drink it openly.
"No, how this wine bamboo grows itself, naturally needs to be studied by the housekeeper to see if there is a possibility of large-scale planting.
But I have another idea in mind, I want you to help me make a slightly thicker needle, Uncle Blacksmith, but it has to be hollow in the middle, the kind that can penetrate both ends.
In this way, I can pour those fine wines into the bamboo, let these wines grow with the bamboo, fully absorb the essence of the bamboo, and go through a re-fermentation process, which is definitely much better than the fine wine cellared by ordinary methods.
In a few years, you will be able to get a lot of fine wines that are similar to the liquor in the body of this sake bamboo.
And it's enclosed in bamboo, how surprising and rare it is to take it out, right? ”
What Shi Lei thought of was naturally the bamboo tube wine that was still quite legendary in later generations.
Shi Lei has been hungry for this kind of wine for a long time, but unfortunately there are very few bamboo tube wines that really grew up with bamboo, and Shi Lei has never found a reassuring real thing.
"Uncle, have you ever heard of a good wine called 'Daughter Red'?
It is said that the rich and noble family gave birth to a daughter, so they must select some glutinous grains, make three jars of wine, and bury them under their own osmanthus trees.
On the day of the daughter's wedding, she used wine as a congratulatory gift for the marriage and sent it to her husband's house.
According to the old custom, the first three bowls of wine scooped out of the altar were to be presented to the daughter's father-in-law, her grandfather, and her husband.
It means praying for longevity and good health and prosperity for the family. ”
Seeing that Cheng Chuyue was sitting opposite, listening carefully to his thoughts, Shi Lei naturally wanted to behave well in front of his future daughter-in-law, and such a hinted allusion was naturally the most suitable.
"At that time, our wine will be called bamboo leaf green, and it will be poured into the bamboo as soon as possible recently, and when I finish my filial piety and go to Chang'an to marry the moon, it happens that this batch of bamboo tube wine has also grown.
Wouldn't it make more sense to serve all the guests with this wine? ”
After Shi Lei finished talking about his plan, he deliberately winked at Cheng Chuyue. This was originally said to his daughter-in-law.
Sure enough, although Cheng Chuyue still gave Shi Lei a roll of the eyes, she couldn't help but smile sweetly.
Shi Lei is really concerned about himself, and he has already thought of such a long-term thing.
Everyone else smiled and nodded, only Cheng Chumo looked at his sister who was full of happiness and obviously had fallen in his heart, and shook his head speechlessly.
"It's really a big girl." Cheng Chumo sighed softly and rarely, but the expression on his face immediately became entangled.
Because Cheng Chuyue's little hand was unceremoniously falling on his brother's waist, turning left and twisting right.
Shi Lei felt pain for him, Cheng Chuyue was not a weak lady, and the strength in her hands was definitely not small.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it must be green, let go." Cheng Chumo hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Mingda, it's late at night, it's time to rest." The shy Cheng Chuyue directly picked up the little son and walked back first.
Li Zhi hurriedly stood up, confessed to everyone, followed behind his sister, and was about to go to rest.
"Okay, I'll think about it for the past few days, and I'll make it for you."
Since it is related to such a major event as marrying the future housewife, the blacksmith uncle naturally has to take it seriously.
I lowered my head and thought about it for a long time, and felt that I had the idea and grasp of it, so I took the job out loud.
Everyone was also full of food and drink, and at this time they simply dispersed together.
Shi Lei was frightened by the previous sneak attack, so he honestly called all the Chow Chow back, put them at the door of his bedroom, and just surrounded him in the middle.
With these alert guys here, you should be able to get a good night's sleep.
Another killer or something, I shouldn't have that ability, and I need to get so many male Chow Chows at the same time.
Meimei recalled the bits and pieces of getting along with her future daughter-in-law, and Shi Lei fell asleep with a smile.
The needle for injecting liquor into the bamboo had not yet been made, and the farmer who had been ordered to buy the liquor set off early the next morning. Shi Lei has always believed in the skills of the blacksmith uncle.
The goal of procurement is naturally the No. 1 liquor in Shuzhong today, which is also called the high liquor of Jiannan Burning Spring.
Nowadays, it is 100% puree wine made from grain, and there is no such problem as alcohol blending.
Don't worry about the existence of industrial alcohol, and then drink it to death or something.
After breakfast, Uncle Fan Mengda also came to take his leave.
It's been a few days, and it would be a remiss not to go back.
Besides, I have to go back and stare at Liu Tingshi's movements, don't let him play any amazing tricks.
For this uncle who came and went in a hurry, Shi Lei's feelings were definitely not as deep as those of other uncles, after all, the contact time was short.
But the respect for him is definitely a lot, because this person is also silently sheltering himself, but he will not appear in his life every day.
Of course, when Uncle Fan begs for bones and lives with everyone, the situation will definitely be different.
In addition, Uncle Fan's skills also left a deep impression on Shi Lei.
Since there is such a big master, Shi Lei, who has itchy skills, will naturally ask him for a discussion.
The lack of actual combat experience has always been his biggest shortcoming, especially the experience of playing against such top masters, every time is precious, and he can learn a lot.
Uncle Fan is going back, Shi Lei definitely can't let him go empty-handed.
A few wine bamboos must be had, Shi Lei's own chili oil, also have to come to a bottle, delicious honey, let Uncle Fan flush every morning to drink, and then a jar of scorpions, ants or something, as well as a variety of other medicinal materials together with medicinal wine, for the elderly to maintain health, in short, all sent are local specialties.
As for another local specialty, the gold dug up by the gold-eating ants, naturally he didn't give it, but gave him two magic gold iron rulers, which were his usual weapons.
Sending these things seems to be close to everyone, and relatives who don't see outsiders only send some things produced in their own land, which really doesn't mean to treat each other as outsiders.
The sorrow of parting only crossed Shi Lei's heart slightly. This uncle is not far away, and there will be many opportunities to deal with him in the future, so there is no need to make it the same as parting with life and death.
After sending Uncle Fan away, Shi Lei ran to find Li Zhi and his little son again, and his daughter-in-law was also there, Shi Lei thought of a fun idea again.
