Chapter 104
Uncle Qiang quickly agreed: "Yes, girl, I'll make the arrangements right away and leave immediately." There happened to be a ginseng that was more than a hundred years old in the warehouse, which was left over from a New Year gift, so there was no need to go to the basement to get it.It's appropriate to trouble Magistrate Lin on New Year's Eve and give him a heavy gift. I'm afraid there will be a lot of things that need to bother Magistrate Lin in the future.

Uncle Qiang left in a hurry, and Zhiruo said to Mo Wang again: "Those who are dead are piled together, and those who are unconscious or not are unconscious. Except for a few people who went to meet Qingyuan Hou, their hands and feet are bound. These people Since they have a hobby of going out on New Year's Eve, let them enjoy the wind and the moon here while waiting for the people from the Yamen to come. Just leave two or three of the guards on duty in the concierge to watch. What should the others do? What are you doing? If you haven't finished eating yet, go back and eat." Fortunately, we are eating hot pot, so we don't have to worry about the food getting cold.

Don’t forget to answer the question loudly, blowing the wind and enjoying the moon?Haha, these bandits are also very elegant. Speaking of which, the wind is really quite strong tonight.But the guards don't need to blow the air in the concierge.

The bandits had just been in panic and had not felt anything yet. Now when they heard "Blow the wind", they suddenly felt the biting cold wind and their upper and lower teeth were chattering.Damn it, they don’t have anything to eat or drink on New Year’s Eve, so they still have to drink the northwest wind here?What about the gold, silver, jewelry and huge dowry that was promised?What about celebrating the New Year every day and enjoying wine and meat every day?The second boss clearly said this was a big fat piece of meat that was easy to chew, so why did it turn into a big bone for teething?Not only did they smash their teeth, they smashed their heads and even killed them.It’s a complete lie!Just said, it's so easy to chew, why are the surrounding mountains so slow to take action, will they be left to them?

At this time, Liu Xiang, the second boss, was even more regretful. Once he entered the Yamen today, he was afraid that his identity would be exposed. Even if he survived as a bandit, the inexplicable murder case many years ago would directly lead to his death. .Ye Fang'er, Ye Fang'er, it was you who saved my life back then, and it's you who killed me today!In this life, the two of us owe nothing to each other.Anyway, he can't get through this time, but Ye Fang'er can't stay out of it, haha, no one can escape.

The old man in Banshan had long been impatient, and walked over directly, muttering: "Okay, okay, let's go have the New Year's Eve dinner. On such a beautiful day, let these bandits do the wind and the moon." . Little girl, please hurry up and ask someone to prepare wine for me. I want one of the two I drank last time. My old man’s cat has been blowing the wind in the tree for so long. You can’t treat me badly.” The naturalness and taken-for-grantedness of your face are surprising. Even if you are really kind to Meizhuang, you don't have to be so anti-customer, right?
Fortunately, there was already Su Kang in front of him. The Mingze brothers, Ruchun, and Rudong accepted the rogue and drunken behavior of the old man in the middle of the mountain much faster. Ruchun said: "Girl, I'm going to get the bar." Qi Bo , What was the number of wine that this... knight forcibly bought last time?" Old man?She really couldn't scream, it didn't sound like it at all.

Qi Bo remembered it very clearly, so he naturally blurted out: "No. [-] and No. [-]." Xu Lin distilled and purified a total of seven kinds of good wine bought outside and numbered them. He combined the reputation, price, and the results of his own tasting from Number one to number seven, of course, the higher the number, the better.Xu Lin and his two servants brewed the wine, starting from No. [-]. The taste of No. [-] was better than the previous ones at first, and now it is on par with No. [-] and No. [-], each with its own characteristics. .

Inspired by Zhiruo's occasional and casual suggestions or opinions, Xu Lin even developed new materials and new varieties on his own, which made Zhiruo even have to admire the talent and hard work of some people. .Today, there are a total of twelve kinds of wine in the wine cellar of Meizhuang, not including the flower wine and fruit wine made by Zhiruo himself.

Zhiruo glanced at the old man Banshan and said with a smile: "Ruchun, please ask them to bring out a jar of No. [-]. Today this... old man Banshan has really helped us a lot. Since he is staying with us to celebrate New Year's Eve, he can lend you a drink." It would be nice to express our gratitude and respect.”

As soon as the Banshan old man heard the content and tone of Zhiruo's words, he thought about the ranking again, and decided that No. [-] must be better than No. [-] and No. [-], right?Naturally, he didn't stop him. He thought it would be better to pretend not to hear. If he got sidetracked, he would just try to cheat and get back to No. [-] or No. [-].Anyway, in order to satisfy the alcohol bug in his stomach, he had already lost all his integrity today.Haha, fortunately, he has never valued this kind of integrity very much.

Mingze and Minghui no longer cared about his so-called scoundrel behavior of begging for alcohol since they saw the old man Banshan feeding poison to Mustache with such beautiful moves that they almost didn't see it clearly.Mr. Su Kang is not also a rogue glutton, but after being his student, you realize that his little greedy problem is nothing compared to his talent.The eldest sister said that talented people often have a little eccentricity, or in other words, they don't stick to the usual rules.

It seems that the same is true for this old man from Banshan. If he didn't have some outstanding skills or had a bad character, his father wouldn't want Minghui to be his disciple, would he?It's a pity that this drunkard doesn't accept apprentices who can't drink.

Mingze felt sorry for his younger brother, but Minghui himself was fine.Under the guidance and subtle influence of the eldest sister, Minghui's mentality and temperament have become much calmer than before.Moreover, the two sworn brothers and Mo Wang beside their siblings are both masters. He is not in a hurry to find a master. At most, he will wait until he grows up in a few years to travel and explore.

As soon as the Banshan old man approached the courtyard where the New Year's Eve banquet was held, he was tantalized by the aroma that hit his nostrils and felt even more hungry.

"Wow, wow, it's so fragrant. What are you eating? Wow, I'm so hungry. Hey, isn't this hot pot?" The old man in Banshan walked through the aroma of the tables, feeling more and more hungry.He often eats hot pot in winter, but...it doesn't seem to be that delicious.

Zhiruo shook his head in a funny way. The old man from Banshan stood there silently and looked like Huang Yaoshi, the owner of Peach Blossom Island. When he spoke or moved, he turned into the old naughty boy Zhou Botong.I never thought that such two completely different temperaments could magically overlap in one person. "We are eating hot pot," Rudong replied proudly, "It is the hot pot base that is unique to our Meizhuang. It is naturally fragrant. You, old man, will take a look at the dozen or twenty kinds of sauces later. I guarantee that you will get the most out of it." I haven't seen it before. Our eldest girl has already ordered me to bring you a small hot pot." Fortunately, the kitchen has brewed several large buckets of soup today.

A small hot pot for one person?Is there anything like this?The old man Banshan wanted to say no, but he was very curious about the small hot pot, so he shut up. He secretly thought that there were so many rare things in Plum Village, and it was worth it for him to show off today, haha.

Old Man Banshan was a guest, an elder, and an expert who had helped Meizhuang a lot, so he naturally had to sit at the head table.Zhiruo had already asked someone to come over and open another table next to her. She, her two younger sisters, and Mother You moved to that table.

Stepping into the hall, before Zhiruo had time to introduce himself, he heard a ghost shouting from behind: "Wow, old man Su, why are you here? And you eat so well? You really can be found wherever there is delicious food. No. , No, didn’t you go to the capital? I also told my great disciple. Oh, what’s the smell? What’s the smell? It smells so good! Let me smell it, let me smell it, what kind of good wine are you drinking?” He shouted and flew over with his nose raised.

Everyone in Zhiruo's eyes widened: Old Man Banshan knows Su Kang?Judging from his tone, they should be on good terms with each other. Isn't this a coincidence?

Rudong immediately thought of a saying he had just learned from her girl a few days ago: "Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together." Isn't that right?These two old men, one is a greedy man and the other is an alcoholic, and they are both the best among greedy and drunkards.

I saw Su Kang was stunned for a moment, slowly swallowing the food in his mouth, then turned his head and smiled leisurely: "You immortal fairy, half-old man, why did you suddenly come to our Meizhuang? Oh, you don't know how. Are they the bandits who came to rob you? Your dog's nose smelled the aroma of wine, so you didn't have New Year's Eve dinner at your mountainside villa during the Chinese New Year, but came to Meizhuang to rob you?"

The old man in Banshan had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed Su Kang's wine glass and smelled it. He took another sip and had endless aftertaste: "What a wonderful wine! It's cold and sweet, and the fragrance of plums is quiet. Are there plum blossoms in this wine? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, good wine!" It would be better if the taste was more mellow. I said, old man Su, you are nothing. Who am I, the old man from Banshan? I am not ugly and short of money, how can I become a bandit who robs homes? I just can't bear it. With the alcohol bug in my stomach, I just came here to buy a drink from the little girl. Speaking of which, I even helped the little girl fight bandits and catch her accomplices."

Su Kang took back the wine glass and sneered: "The bandits live in the mountains, you live in the middle of the mountain, just one step away, okay? Catch the accomplice? Hey, old man, are you sure you are not an accomplice? Or, you listen You said someone was coming to rob you, so you wanted to follow them and rob a few jars of good wine? But then you saw that the bandits were no match for you, so you turned around and caught the bandits? Anyway, I don’t think it’s such a coincidence. Hey, take yours away Claw, this pot of plum blossom wine was specially prepared for me by Miss Yin, right?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you old guy is still as stingy as ever." The old man in Banshan raised the glass of plum blossom wine he just poured out and drank it in one gulp. "Miss Yin has prepared a jar of good wine for me. I'll have a glass of it later." If I don’t give it to you, I’ll make you want to die. By the way, I also have a separate small pot, which will make you mad!”

"Tch," Su Kang glanced sideways at his old friend who had been having trouble since childhood, "I saw the small pot early in the morning, right? Miss Yin even asked someone to send one to my residence. When will I want to eat pot in the future? It’s ready for use at any time. But I think today’s New Year’s Eve banquet would be fun if we all had a big pot together, so I don’t want you, an old man like you, to miss it.”

 There is a power outage in our community today. I heard that it will be outage for half a day tomorrow. I feel dizzy. I will upload it first and then catch the bugs tomorrow.What you owe will be made up, don't worry.
