Ring Town

Chapter 8: The Lonely Mengjiu

() Meng Jiu's changes were seen in Chu Feng's eyes, and he felt relieved, knowing that he had done the right thing.

But the more this is the case, the less he dares to be careless. Many things are often carried away at the last moment, which leads to failure.

So Chu Feng wanted to pour a little more oil on the hot fire to make the fire burn stronger, so he deliberately sighed: "Oh, it's a pity that this hundred-year-old wine is called loose wine. Since Master Meng doesn't want to product, Manager Qin, then I'll take it back."

With Qin Fang's intelligence, how could she fail to see what Chu Feng was going to do? Although she was still blaming Chu Feng for making decisions and saying those things before, if these centuries-old wines were true, it would be related to the development of Zhuangyuan Pavilion She won't get angry about such a big matter.

So Qin Fang was very cooperative and then sighed: "Well, since Uncle Meng is not willing to taste these century-old wines, and I can't verify the authenticity, I have no choice but to let you take it back."

Chu Feng looked at Meng Jiu at the door, he didn't speak or move, and because he was carrying his back, he couldn't see the expression on his face, so he felt even more disturbed, but the play has already reached here, as the saying goes, the bow is on the string, I have to send it out, and I can only continue to act.

Chu Feng slowly closed the lid of the barrel, and was depressed to find that Meng Jiu at the door was still standing there, feeling a bit shy, so he had to pick up the barrel and walk out slowly.

To say it is to go is actually better to say it is to move, which is extremely slow.

The play needs to be done, and it has reached this point. Qin Fang has no choice but to fight, so she will force Meng Lao again. She frowned, and suddenly said to Chu Feng who was about to walk to the door: "Chu Feng , Uncle Meng just said that our hotel doesn’t need employees like you, so you go to the finance department to get your salary now, and you don’t need to come tomorrow!”

What he said was categorical, and there was no room for maneuver. Although he knew he was acting, Chu Feng was still taken aback, with a bit of bitterness on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, I know Manager Qin."

This time, he really felt a little frustrated, holding the hand of the century-old wine, he also became a little weak.

"and many more!"

Just as Chu Feng was about to walk out of the door, Meng Jiu, who had not moved all this time, suddenly stopped him.

In fact, it wasn't that Meng Jiu didn't move, it was because his heart was already in an uproar.

He has been fond of wine since he was a child, and he knows the taste of wine by smelling its aroma. When he is a little older, he only needs a drop of wine to know whether the wine is good or not. When he grows up, he can not only taste the wine, but also The degree, the number of years, whether there is blending, mixing water, all are clear at a glance.

Later, as he grew older, his experience became more and more abundant, and because he cherished words like gold, he won the reputation of Jinkou.

He is a man who cherishes his reputation, and he loves wine like hell.

But at the same time, he is also a lonely person.

As soon as he came in today, he actually saw the wine barrel on the table, but because the packaging was too simple, he didn't care at all, until later he said that he was asked to taste the wine, he thought it was an insult to him, That's why he walked away.

Later, when Chu Feng said that the wine was a hundred-year-old wine, he didn't believe it even more, because he had been fond of wine all his life, and he had tasted all the best wines in the world, so he knew better what a hundred-year-old wine meant.

However, at the moment when he was about to go out, Chu Feng opened the lid of the wine barrel, and the strong and deep aroma of the wine shook his whole body. Based on the aroma of the wine alone, he could conclude that this Wine is not an ordinary product. Although I dare not say it for a hundred years, it is definitely available for decades, otherwise it would not have such a strong fragrance that has been in the years.

He wanted to turn back at that time, but when he thought that he almost missed the wine because of the shabby packaging, he felt deeply responsible, and in the depths of his heart, a struggle that he had never seen before was triggered, so he stood there in a daze, and kept going. no response.

He didn't wake up until Chu Feng was about to leave, so he called to stop Chu Feng.

Of course, Chu Feng didn't know this, but he just had a vague feeling that Meng Jiu at this moment had a different temperament from when he came in before, as if he was more indifferent and free-spirited.

But this is not what he cares about, what he cares about is his wine: "Old Meng, what's the matter?"

These words seemed to be asking questions knowingly, but Meng Jiu didn't care about these things, his smile was still friendly and harmonious, just like the old man next door: "Little brother, I wonder if I can taste your century-old wine?"

"This..." Chu Feng frowned, but looked at Qin Fang, looking very embarrassed and said: "But Manager Qin has fired me just now, so..."

"Did I say that?" Qin Fang raised her brows lightly, and turned her face to deny it. Not only that, but also gave Chu Feng a vicious look with her watery eyes.

That meaning seems to be saying, don't make trouble anymore!

Seeing Qin Fang's beautiful eyes, Chu Feng felt guilty, and immediately smiled shyly: "Then invite Mr. Meng to taste it."

Meng Jiu took the big bucket from Chu Feng, and then, like a magic trick, he found a small yellow wine cup from nowhere. The small cup was as thick as a thumb, and it could hold a penny of wine.

Meng Jiu carefully poured most of the wine into the small cup, but did not spill a single drop. Chu Feng admired this hand.

You must know that even when he poured wine into the suet jade bottle, he spilled a lot.

Meng Jiu picked up the small wine glass, but he didn't drink it directly, but looked at it first. Facing the light, the pair of old eyes that were originally cloudy showed two rays of light. He swung the small wine glass slightly, half of the wine inside The glass of wine swayed on the wall of the glass.

Then he slowly put the wine glass in front of his nose, and took a slight sniff.

……

Seeing Meng Jiu doing this with great interest, Chu Feng sighed lightly. Sure enough, no matter what, everyone has their own way. If it is like this when drinking normally, then it is really exhausting.

"Good, good, good!" Just as Chu Feng sighed, Meng Jiu finally swallowed a sip of the wine in his mouth, and after savoring it, he couldn't help but applaud loudly.

The face that had always been calm was a little red because of excitement at this moment, and the eyes became extremely sharp, but they were not staring at Chu Feng or Qin Fang's face, but at the shabby wine on the barrel.

"Uncle Meng, is this wine really aged for a hundred years?" Qin Fang was already sure when she heard Meng Jiu's applause, but because the matter was so important, she still couldn't help asking nervously.

"Yes, of course!" Meng Jiu was still reminiscing, and it took him a long time to turn his eyes away from the vat: "This wine is undoubtedly aged for a hundred years, but for some reason, it is a little more elegant than ordinary aged wine. The quiet fragrance, after drinking, people will have endless aftertaste."

As he spoke, a lonely expression suddenly appeared on his face, he seemed to be sighing, but also seemed to be mocking himself: "After drinking this wine, how can I continue to drink other wines?"
