Chapter 224 Magistrate Wen’s surprise
Magistrate Wen thought thoughtfully, and then said: "Maybe it's hard to say why. The matter has been resolved. Today I specially brought good wine to treat the old man to a drink. I also wish Mr. Xu a good result in the exam this time."

Wenyuan took out a small, beautifully packaged wine bottle and poured a glass for his father, the old man, and Uncle Xu.

The old man looked at the red wine in the glass and smelled the familiar smell. He didn't know what to say. Uncle Xu was also a little dumbfounded.

But Magistrate Wen said with a smile: "Maybe the old man still doesn't know why this wine is red, right? I heard that this wine is made from grapes. It's hard to find a bottle in the capital. Everyone is after it, and I'm useless." With the strength of nine cows and two tigers, I asked someone to buy such a small bottle, it is very precious!"

Uncle Xu couldn't hold it any longer and said, "There should be two more flavors, right?"

Magistrate Wen was surprised: "How do you know there are two different flavors? This wine is only sold in the capital, but those two flavors are more suitable for women to drink. I heard that even the queens and concubines in the palace drink some every day. , said it can beautify the skin, but it’s a pity that I only got this small bottle and spent a lot of money on it!”

Wen Yuan smiled and said, "Dad, are you hiding private money behind your mother's back?"

Magistrate Wen secretly cursed himself for being quick-tongued, and his son was really saying this in front of so many people, so he said perfunctorily: "No, it's the salary I saved. I won't talk about it anymore. Come on, let me have a drink and try it."

The old man also raised his glass and tasted it. Well, it was still a familiar recipe and a familiar taste.

Magistrate Wen asked: "What do you think of the taste, old man? This wine also has a name, it's called Qiongjiangyuye. It's very beautiful!"

The old man said: "Well, that's right! This wine can only be found in heaven, and it's rare to smell it in the world!"

Magistrate Wen laughed loudly and said: "It seems that the old man knows a lot about wine. If this was not the only amount of wine, I would have had enough with you today!"

The old man said: "What's the problem? Boss, go to the backyard and bring a jar."

"Yes, Dad!"

Magistrate Wen said: "Old man, after drinking this wine, you will feel indifferent and tasteless if you drink other wines."

The old man said: "Well, yes, I think so too."

"Little sister, do you still remember me?" A sweet and clear voice said.

Qibao said: "I remember, we met once at the entrance of Juxiang Pavilion, but you were wearing a veil at that time."

Wendie smiled slightly and said, "Well, I didn't expect that we are really destined!"

Shippo nodded and smiled back.

Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "Miss Wen, you are so beautiful."

Wendie was a little shy and said, "Thank you, Auntie, for the compliment."

At this time, Uncle Xu came in with a wine jar and said, "Dad, I brought the wine."

The old man said: "Master Wen, keep this small bottle of yours for yourself. Try my wine today."

Magistrate Wen said, "How can this be done? I am treating guests to dinner today, how can I let the guests bring their own drinks?"

The old man said: "It doesn't matter, it's all the same anyway!"

Magistrate Wen still didn't understand, so he heard the old man say: "Boss, pour a glass for the magistrate."

"Yes!"

Because the mouth of the altar is large and the cup is relatively small, Uncle Xu also brought a special wine stem specially for pouring wine out of fear that it would spill.

When the red wine was poured out, Magistrate Wen and his son Wen Yuan opened their mouths in shock.

Magistrate Wen said: "Old man...why is your wine also red? It is exactly the same as my bottle of fine wine."

Wen Yuan also knew that his father spent a lot of money to get such a small bottle of wine, but the wine in such a big jar brought by the Xu family could probably hold dozens of bottles. How much does it cost?

The old man said: "Yes! It's the same!"

Magistrate Wen thought to himself that the color might be the same but the taste might be different, so he picked up the wine glass and took a sip without saying a word. "Huh? It tastes exactly the same! Old man, you also bought this jar in the capital? How much does it cost?" Magistrate Wen was also increasingly shocked.

The old man said: "No money, you can drink as much as you want today!"

"What? You don't want money?" Magistrate Wen said with wide eyes.

The old man said: "This wine belongs to me, how much does it cost?"

Magistrate Wen suddenly stood up and said, "Master, please don't talk nonsense. Do you know who owns this jade liquid in the capital?"

The old man said: "I know, he is the person I met in the capital."

Magistrate Wen swallowed his saliva and said, "Is your surname Su?"

The old man was surprised and said: "Do you know Mr. Wen too? His surname is indeed Su."

Magistrate Wen sighed: "That's it! This old man is so lucky! This Su family is a big tree!"

The old man asked doubtfully: "Is the Su family very powerful in the capital?"

Magistrate Wen asked doubtfully: "The old man doesn't know?"

The old man said: "Well, I only know that his family lives in the capital, his surname is Su, and he has a good relationship, but I haven't heard him mention family matters."

Magistrate Wen said: "Since he didn't reveal his identity, I, the little magistrate, don't dare to say anything. But old man, you just need to know that there are not many people in the Su family in the capital who dare to offend!"

The old man said: "Well, I should have thought of it a long time ago, otherwise this wine is so valuable, there is no way anyone would not want it."

Magistrate Wen looked at the small bottle of wine he had brought and said with some embarrassment: "It turns out this wine was brewed by the old man's family, but today I seem to be doing my own thing."

The old man smiled and said: "Sir, you don't have to say that. It's because you think highly of me, old man, that I'll treat you to this drink today!"

"Okay! You're welcome then, but I have one more request. Can you buy two bottles from the old man later and give them to my wife to try too?" Magistrate Wen said.

The old man smiled and said: "When the time comes, I will give you two altars. I hope you can help take care of Juxiang Pavilion in the future. It can be regarded as my best wishes."

Magistrate Wen said: "You are so polite, old man. You have good wine here. I love this drink. From now on, I will have to have a drink with you often."

The old man said: "I'm afraid it won't work anymore. To be honest, we will leave after the civil and military exams are over."

Magistrate Wen said with a pity on his face: "I see, but Qingyun City is not far from Huamen Town. We can visit more often in the future."

The old man said: "As long as you don't mind that our Xu family is in a farmhouse, you are welcome to visit us at any time."

Uncle Xu took the opportunity to promote: "Our village will soon become a resort. There will be new and special wooden houses to stay in. At that time, adults can bring their families to stay for a few days. The scenery is beautiful and there are crayfish to eat." ! You can also fish and pick fruits if you have nothing to do."

Magistrate Wen said in surprise: "Resort? This is the first time I've heard of it! But what is this crayfish? I really want to see it after hearing what you said!"

The old man said: "I can do it at any time. Please help me promote it. I won't let you down."

Magistrate Wen said: "Okay, this is no problem!"

Wen Yuan smiled and said: "I will definitely bring all the friends I know with me then!"

Wen Die looked at Qibao and said, "Sister Xu, what fruits do you have at home? I like to eat fruits the most, but the fruit season is too short, so I can only eat the common ones."

Qibao said: "The fruits at my house are different from those outside. Some fruits can be eaten all year round, and they taste very delicious."

Wen Die said: "Really? I will definitely try it then!"
