Chapter 91 Horse Thief
Not long after, the eldest brother came back, holding a few packages of cooked food wrapped in greased paper in his left hand, and a bottle of wine in his right.

"My lord, you have been waiting for a long time."

"No."

He put the things on the table and started to unpack them.

"Brother, what kind of wine is this?"

"This is Daughter Hong."

Nurhong, also known as Huadiao wine, is a traditional famous wine in Shaoxing.

What is daughter red wine? In Shaoxing area, there is a custom of brewing daughter wine after giving birth to a daughter.

According to legend, the origin of the name of Nv'erhong is because a tailor got a girl, and the husband was unhappy, so he bought the wine that was supposed to be used for entertaining guests under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

There was a young girl in the folk family who was smart and capable and won the favor of the tailor. When the daughter got married, the tailor dug out the wine and opened the jar. The aroma diffused and the taste was mellow.Therefore, when it comes to what kind of wine is this daughter red, there is a saying that it is a must for giving birth to a daughter and marrying a daughter.

Jiang Chen had heard of the wine "Nu Nu Hong", but he hadn't drunk it in two lifetimes combined, so let's try this "Nu Nu Hong" today.

The sister-in-law brought two bowls, and the eldest brother removed the seal of the wine jar, poured out the wine carefully, for fear of wasting a drop.

Looking at the cooked food on the table, there are roast chicken, fried peanuts, sauced beef, and braised pork.

The eldest brother handed over the remaining money to Jiang Chen, and he naturally collected it.

"Sister-in-law, come too."

"I don't want it anymore, you just drink it, I don't know how to drink."

"I don't know how to drink, but I can eat."

The sister-in-law couldn't help swallowing when she looked at the cooked food on the table, but she just didn't serve it.

In ancient homes, when guests came to drink, women generally did not serve at the table, and there are many such in modern times.

Jiang Chen tore off a chicken leg, and walked over to give it to her.

"It's okay to eat."

Jiang Chen looked at his elder brother.

"Since it is the son's kindness, you can eat it."

She finally took the chicken leg, and just about to put it in her mouth to take a bite, when the chicken leg came to her mouth, she stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong."

"I want to save the chicken legs for the kids."

Jiang Chen's heart was touched when he heard it, he couldn't help thinking of what delicious food his mother used to make, and always put the best ones for himself.

Jiang Chen went back to the table, and rewrapped the leftover roast chicken.

"Young master, this is it."

"Leave the roast chicken to my children and my sister-in-law, and the beef with sauce and braised pork. We only need a bag of peanuts."

"Young master, this is not good. This is a side dish, how can I give them all to eat."

"Brother, it's okay. I often eat big fish and meat outside. A plate of peanuts is enough. The most important thing is to have my brother drink with me. This is the atmosphere."

The husband and wife were very moved. They didn't expect that it was just an unintentional act of kindness, but they got so much in return.

Handing the packaged cooked food to the sister-in-law, the two began to drink.

This daughter's red wine tastes like a full-bodied wine with six flavors of sweetness, sourness, bitterness, pungentness, freshness and astringency. In addition, it has a higher nutritional value than other wines, thus forming a clear, fragrant, mellow, soft, tender and full-bodied wine. A comprehensive style that combines softness and coolness.

The two ate peanuts, drank heavily, and talked and laughed happily. The jar of wine was quickly drained by the two of them.

Had a really good drink tonight.

Jiang Chen was also a little drunk.

"My lord, this is your room. The bed has been made for you."

"Thank you sister-in-law."

Jiang Chen was also a little sleepy, after saying good night to them, he went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, Jiang Chen thought of his parents.

He fell asleep unknowingly, woke up the next day, Jiang Chen walked out of the room, and heard the voices of his sister-in-law and the child coming from the child's room.

"Mom, this chicken leg is really delicious."

"This is given to you by the big brother who lives in our house. When you see him later, you have to say thank you."

"I know mother."

Jiang Chen walked into the child's room.

"Young master, you are awake."

The child also saw the big brother in the mother's mouth.

"Thank you big brother for the delicious food."

"You're welcome."

The child's spirits have improved a lot.

"My lord, I'll get you something to eat."

"Ah."

Jiang Chen talked with the child in the room.

After a while, my sister-in-law had brought the breakfast and put it on the table.

Jiang Chen went out and saw a bowl of porridge and the sauced beef from last night, they were reluctant to eat and left them for him.

Jiang Chen picked up the porridge and drank it up in a few gulps, but the sauced beef didn't touch a piece.

When I was full, I saw my elder brother coming in with a hoe from outside.

"Young master is awake."

"Brother, I'm leaving. I'll come and see you when I have the chance."

"Young master won't stay for a few more days."

"No, there's still something to do, don't delay."

"Master, come here often when you are free. You are our family's great benefactor."

"Will do."

Jiang Chen went back to the room to pick up the package and the long sword, walked out of the room, and went to see the child.

Taking advantage of their inattention, Jiang Chen took out 20 taels of silver and put it in the child's hand.

"When uncle is gone, leave it to your father."

"Ah."

The eldest brother and sister-in-law were sent outside, Jiang Chen got on the horse, turned the horse's head, clamped his legs, and the horse galloped quickly.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law went back to the room to look after the child. Seeing that the child had given out so much money, and hearing what the child said, the husband and wife were very moved and met a nobleman.

These 20 taels are a few years of expenses for their family.

Seeing the horse running ahead, Jiang Chen closed his eyes and practiced.

An hour later, Jiang Chen opened his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment.

After reading it, Jiang Chen didn't know where it was, so he seemed to have to find someone to ask.

Jiang Chen continued walking along the road ahead.

After walking for about half an hour, I saw thick smoke billowing in front of me.

Something was burning in front, he clamped his legs, and the horse galloped towards that place quickly.

Three miles away, Jiang Chen saw something, a group of horse thieves on horseback were burning, killing and looting the village.

Jiang Chen saw villagers fleeing in all directions, children sitting on the ground crying, people dying on the ground, some girls were caught by horse thieves and immediately struggled.

But those dozens of horse thieves laughed wildly, as if this purgatory on earth was a scene they enjoyed in front of them.

Jiang Chen was furious when he saw these horse thieves, these horse thieves had already moved Jiang Chen to kill.

Jiang Chen drew out his long sword.

"Drive~"

"Zun Ri" felt the anger of its master, and it rushed over at the fastest speed.

A horse thief was laughing wildly with a chicken in his hand. Suddenly he saw a man riding a horse with a long sword in his hand, running towards him. Horses ran past him and his throat was slit!

"Squeak~"

A leaking sound came from the neck.

He covered his neck in horror, but no matter how he covered it, blood still leaked from the wound. He felt it was difficult to breathe, and soon he became unconscious, fell to the ground, and died.

His expression remained terrified, his eyes were not closed, he was dying with regret.

The other horse thieves also saw Jiang Chen and the sudden appearance of a man full of murderous intent. They were all a little scared in their hearts. They were obviously alone, but it made them feel like they were being turned into a cart.

 Thank you bosses for recommending tickets and monthly tickets.
