Shengpingle

Chapter 24 The Shepherd Boy Points to Xinghua Village ([-])

Huo Yanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down opposite Hua Pingle, while Dang Gui stood behind him and winked at Hua Pingle.

Hua Ping endured it for a while, but still asked, "What do you want to say?"

This sentence seemed to open some kind of valve, Dang Gui let out a hey, and said like pouring beans, "Second girl, the little one just kept saying to the prince:
Lord, look, the second girl comes to Hat Alley every day, when will she come to Wuwen Pavilion?
You came here suddenly today, you must want to see the prince!

The prince still didn't believe it, so he shrank in the corner and dared not show up until now!
He showed up and stood at the door stupidly, afraid that you wouldn't let him in, girl!
Hey, miss, if you say that the prince doesn't believe me, let it be fine, but tell me, miss, you are a lady of a famous family, are you so rude?People are still kicking outside when they are at the door? "

Hua Pingle was silent for a while, and then he forced himself to raise his eyebrows and frowned, "You sent someone to follow me?"

"no".

Hua Pingle was about to ask how he knew her whereabouts so well, when Huo Yanzhi pursed his lips, and said aggrievedly, "I followed her by myself".

Hua Pingle, "..."

Hua Pingle slammed the table, "What do you want to do?"

Huo Yan's thin lips were almost squeezed into a slit by him, but when he opened his mouth again, he was still stunned.

"I want to see you," he said, "I'm afraid you'll get angry, so I'll stay away so you won't see me."

Hua Pingle's heart ached for no reason, and he managed to maintain his momentum and said, "Don't tell me these lies that pretend to be sincere! It's useless! I won't marry you! You are not allowed to follow me in the future!"

"It's not a lie."

"Anyway, you are not allowed to follow me anymore!"

Huo Yanzhi slowly lowered his eyelashes, and said yes in a low voice.

Look at his little aggrieved face!
Hua Pingle sneered, "What is the prince still doing here?"

Huo Yanzhi was silent, got up, saluted and left.

Dang Gui smiled and bowed to Hua Pingle, trotting to follow.

Hua Pingle didn't leave immediately, holding a teacup and looking out the window in a daze.

After a while, Ah Ji said cautiously, "Girl, are you sad?"

Hua Pingle suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly said, "No, why should I be sad?"

Ah Ji pursed her lips, "But looking at the girl, this servant feels that the dim sum is not tasty anymore!"

Hua Pingle was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed and cursed, "That's because you ate too much! Wrap up the rest and bring them back to Anu. I don't know how angry I am if I take you or her today."

……

……

Hua Pingle counted the time and saw that there was no movement at Nianyu's end, and sent a can of bitter wine a month later.

Anu was looking for the same gatekeeper soldier, and the soldier was looking for the same old eunuch.

The bitter taste in the old eunuch's mouth has not yet been removed, everything he eats tastes extremely bitter, and he lost a lot of weight. Hearing this, he waved his hands again and again.

The soldier had to coax him to go by giving him more money and promising benefits.

Xiao Laizi got the news, watched Nian Yu take good care of the thousand-year-old orchid, and told Nian Yu as a joke.

"Palmprint, Miss Hua Er sent wine to Zhangyin again, the wine from last time is said to be bitterer than Coptis chinensis.

The old eunuch who won the palm print award tasted bitter in everything he ate in the past month, and he lost a lot of weight.

Xiao Fengzi was still telling the servant just now that if the palm print refuses to drink, he will ask for a reward from the palm print, drink a few sips, and see if the old eunuch is coaxing him."

Nian Yu's heart twitched slightly, "The bitterness hasn't dissipated for a month?"

Seeing that he was interested, Xiao Laizi hurriedly said, "That is to say, the servant has indeed lost a lot of weight looking at the old eunuch, but I don't know if he is exaggerating."

Nian Yu smiled lazily, "Here, I want to see what kind of wine can last so long."

The wine was brought quickly, and Nian Yu stared at the wine as thick as amber with ginger.

After a while, Fang took the cup and slowly poured it into his mouth, quietly feeling the unforgettable bitterness pervading his taste buds...

After a long time, when little Laizi almost wanted to kneel down, Nian Yu said in a hoarse voice, "Call that old eunuch over here."

Xiao Laizi replied yes, and the old eunuch came soon, crawling on the ground tremblingly, paying his respects to Nianyu.

Nian Yu played with the wine glass in his hand, with a gloomy expression, and asked gloomily, "Is the wine bitter?"

The old eunuch had long heard that Nian Yuyin was vicious, so he dared not lie, and said tremblingly, "Yes, it is bitter."

"This seat kindly rewards you with a jar of wine, but you actually said that wine is bitter—"

Nian Yu suddenly tossed the wine glass, and his voice was chilling to the bone, "Drag on, reward Wujian Wan!"

After Nian Yu took over the East Factory, he made many poisons by himself, two of which were the most famous.

One is invisible from the surface, but it can cause the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys to slowly rot, and it takes seven to seven days to die from torture. It is named Jile Pill.

Another kind can make people die without pain in a moment, named Wujian pill.

Not only the eunuchs and maids in the palace, but also the high-ranking officials and aristocrats in the whole Great Xiao, down to the traffickers and pawns, are afraid and hateful when they hear the name of Wujian Bliss!
As soon as the old eunuch heard the word Wujianwan, he rolled his eyes and passed out.

Xiao Laizi dragged him out without blinking an eye and handed it over to the little eunuch below. He went back to the room and wanted to put away the wine, but when he didn't want to, he saw Nian Yu carefully put the lid on the jar and left with the wine.

He was a little puzzled, Zhang Yin never drank alcohol, but cherished this wine so much, could it be that the Chinese girl is really good at brewing wine?

The old eunuch was full of nonsense, calling such a good wine bitter, obviously dissatisfied with the palm print, no wonder the palm print would be angry!

Just as he was thinking, he heard Nian Yu's cold voice, "Go and check on that Hua Er girl, everything from her birth to the present."

Little Laizi was even more puzzled, could it be that it was not done well, so the palm print was annoyed, and he wanted to investigate her so that he could get revenge in the future?
……

……

After meeting Huo Yan, Hua Pingle took Li Shiwu with him every time he went out to make him pay attention to whether anyone was following him, and went to Wuwen Pavilion several times by himself, but Huo Yanzhi never showed up.

Hua Pingle breathed a sigh of relief, Huo Yanzhi followed her all the time, it would be a lot of trouble for her to act.

After the summer, Hua Ping Le Steward became more handy and took a lot less time, so he ran around the hat alley more diligently, and even often soaked in the brewery in the backyard of Xinghua Village, developing new wine with the wine lady.

For convenience, she set up a temporary resting room in the backyard and asked Anu to stay in Xinghua Village to serve her.

In July, the Hutong is as lively as a hat alley. After Chenshi and before Youshi, there are almost no people.

As soon as You o'clock passed, people flocked out again, and it was a bit more lively than usual.

Xinghua Village took advantage of this time to launch a new wine, mule wine.

Mule wine needs to be mixed with Xinghuacun's special ice syrup when drinking. Once the ice syrup is poured into the wine, the cold air rises. In this summer, the wine has the tendency to freeze instantly.

At this time, you need to drink it immediately, the mouth is extremely spicy and icy, with crushed ice faintly mixed in it.

After entering the mouth, the taste turns thick and mellow, and after entering the abdomen, the whole body is refreshed.

Because the wine is so strong that the store boasts that mules can drink it down, so it is called mule wine.

Because of the various peculiarities of this mule wine, wine lovers in Beijing flock to it.

It's just that this wine is so strong that most people don't dare to drink too much, but those who really like strong wine and have a capacity for alcohol prefer it more.

Gray is good at wine, every few days he must go to Xinghua Village to drink two cups, and then personally pick two cans of new wine back, almost everyone in the capital knows it.

Only he likes wine, but he doesn't drink too much, and he never drinks more than two cups at a time.

He never drinks alcohol when he is on official business, so the time to come to Xinghua Village is not fixed.

On the first day the mule wine was launched, Gray came here admiringly. After drinking two cups, he was very happy and ordered to buy two jars to take back.

Xiao Er was in a dilemma, "It's not difficult to bring the wine back, but the ice cream for mixing the wine needs to be mixed on the spot and poured into the wine immediately.

If adults need it, the wine and ice cream can be packed separately, but the ice cream will not work after a long time."

Gray hesitated for a while, then said, "Then have another cup."

Xiao Er responded crisply, and when he finished his third cup, he got up to pay the bill, and greeted him warmly, "The shopkeeper said that this mule wine is only available for the hottest two and a half months.

It will be cold in the day after tomorrow, those who have a bad stomach, the elderly and infirm, it will be worse if they drink this.

In order to avoid getting into a lawsuit, you can no longer sell takeout, and you have to wait until the next year if you want to drink again. My lord often comes these days! "

Precepts, as long as this thing is broken, it can no longer be called a precept.

The frequency of Gray's visits to Xinghua Village is obviously higher, and he no longer only orders two cups of wine, but three cups.

On the night before the next rest, he even drank five cups.

The wine was indeed very strong, and the amount was as large as his, and it was a bit smoky after drinking five cups.

He was born a good drinker, he could drink a lot, and he was extremely self-controlled. This was the first time he was half-drunk, and it felt very novel and wonderful.

When it came to Xiumu, he walked in very naturally and ordered five cups of wine.

The third time he took a rest, after drinking five cups, he was a little unsatisfied. He was hesitating whether to add another cup or not. The mule wine is no longer for sale, would you like another cup, sir?"
