Chapter 56 Wine

"It still has a fruity aroma and is soft and delicate in the mouth. After one sip, the fragrance of this wine is still lingering between my lips and teeth. This is my first time to drink this kind of wine! I don't know how many times better than the wine I usually drink."

Qibao said, "That's right! If you use a glass cup to hold this red wine, its color will look even more beautiful. It's the so-called luminous cup of grape wine. If you want to drink, Pipa will immediately urge you to drink it. This is it, and women can also drink this wine, but Don’t overdose, it’s good for your body and skin!”

Su Chenyu said, "Qibao, is this a poem you wrote for this red wine? You are really talented. I really want to taste what this wine tastes like. I wonder if Qibao can pour me a glass to taste?"

Qibao said, "Mr. Su, you think too highly of me. This is a poem left by the ancients. I just learned from it." After saying that, he poured a glass of red wine for Su Chenyu and another for Jingchen.

Su Chenyu said, "I have never heard of any ancient person who left such a masterpiece. Besides, this is the first time I have heard of this wine. If there is a wine that can be paired with such a quatrain, it would be known to the whole world. Qibao, don't be humble." ”

Qibao let out an embarrassed chuckle, and she couldn't explain it. She couldn't say that she wasn't from this world, so she excused herself under the guise of pouring wine for her family.

Jingchen always knew that Qibao was not a simple girl, but he did not expect that she could write poems at such a young age. Even the noble ladies in the capital who had read poems since childhood could not do it.

After everyone's glasses were filled with wine, even Xiao Liu's glass was filled with half a glass, and everyone tasted what the praised wine in heaven and earth tasted like.

After finishing the drink, Wang commented, "This wine is really delicious, and it has a faint sweetness. People like me, who don't drink, like to drink it. This wine is really rare. Do you still have Qibao? Didn't you say that women can drink it too?" , I also want to drink two glasses when I have nothing to do, this wine is too good for my taste."

The three sisters-in-law also liked the taste of this wine very much. In their impression, the wine was the kind of white wine that Mr. Xu drank before. It was not only pungent but also spicy. The wine Qibao brought out was miles ahead of that kind of wine, so they all Ask Qibao if there are any more.Even Brother Xu and his three brothers asked Qibao for help.

Seeing this, Mr. Xu quickly held the remaining half jar of wine on the table in his arms, fearing that others would come forward and snatch it away.

Qibao said, "Grandpa, I still have some, and there are not only wines made from grapes, but also other wines with different flavors. I'm going to get them for everyone to try now." After that, he ran back to his room and took the other two wines. Each person poured a jar of wine brewed from the fruit, and when he returned to the table, he poured another glass for everyone. After everyone tasted it, they were all full of praise.

Xiao Liu said, "I like to drink strawberry wine. It's sweet and not unpleasant at all."

Qibao said, "Brother Six, you are too young to drink that much. Just try it, otherwise you will get drunk. I will squeeze some fruit juice for you to drink next time."

Su Chenyu said, "Qibao, this wine is definitely the best wine I have ever encountered. How much wine do you have left?"

Qibao said, "Mr. Su, I picked the fruits for making wine on the mountain. There are no fruits this month. I have been brewing this wine for almost two months."

Su Chenyu said disappointedly, "I thought I would give you money to buy a few jars of such a good wine for my father and mother to taste, but I'm afraid it won't work."

Qibao said, "Although I don't brew much, I can still make a jar of everything for Mr. Su to take away."

Su Chenyu said happily, "That's great, thank you Qibao."

Qibao said, "You're welcome. Just because of our cooperative relationship, isn't it trivial to have two bottles of wine together!" After saying that, he felt a gaze that could not be ignored fell on him. When he turned around, he saw Jing Chen looking straight at him. He came to his senses with a gasp and said, "Young Master Jing is here too!" I thought, this guy is so sultry, he can't tell you anything, and he insists on looking at you like that.Uncle Xu said, "What about us?"

Qibao smiled and said, "I will keep the rest for grandpa later. If any of you want to drink, just ask grandpa for it."

Mr. Xu said with an air of dignity, "What are you drinking? There are so many things to do every day. Drinking will delay the work! Old lady, you can get some for each of the three daughters-in-law later. Didn't Qibao say that this wine is good for you too?" Is there any benefit?"

The three sisters-in-law all looked happy after hearing what their father-in-law said, and they glanced at their husband-in-law with great pride, leaving only the three brothers with resentful expressions on their faces. Mr. Xu pretended not to have seen them.

Qibao said, "Uncle, second uncle and dad, I have saved the seeds of this fruit. We will plant them in the spring after the new year. When the fruit grows, you can drink as much as you want." Everyone in the family understands what she means. , nodded cooperatively.

Su Chenyu said, "Qibao, does this mean that these wines will be produced next year? If we sell this wine to rich people, we will definitely get a lot of money."

Qibao said, "Young Master Su is definitely sure of what he said, but we can only wait until next year."

After the family had lunch, they all went to do whatever they were supposed to do. Qibao distributed the bottled wine to Su Chenyu and Jingchen. Su Chenyu took the wine and said goodbye and returned to town, while Jingchen also went back to the house to rest.

Qibao returned to the room and entered the space. Xiaoling was watering the ground in the space. When he saw Qibao coming in, he looked happy and said happily, "Master, I have harvested several waves of peppers and cumin in the field."

Qibao said, "Thank you for your hard work, little spirit. Without you, I would rarely have time to take care of the space and land. You helped me a lot."

Xiaoling said, "Master, Xiaoling should do this. I am also a part of the space. You are my master. As long as the master is good, Xiaoling will be fine." Qibao held Xiaoling in his arms, feeling moved in his heart. She has always regarded Xiao Ling as a companion, and not as a coolie in the space.

Qibao hugged Xiaoling. She planned to make more wine. Her family liked to drink the wine she brewed. She said she was just having lunch because she was afraid that Su Chenyu and Jingchen would become suspicious. It was already past the fruit ripening season.

After making wine, Qibao went to the study room on the second floor to read. She saw various modern pens placed beside the desk. On a whim, she picked up the charcoal pen and prepared to draw a sketch. In her previous life, she would learn to draw in her spare time. So she can not only sketch but also paint. She feels that painting can soothe irritability and relax people.

Qibao took out a piece of white paper, thought for a while and put Xiao Ling on the table. She was going to draw a portrait of Xiao Ling, so she started by describing the outline of Xiao Ling, and then painted the details, her technique became faster and faster. Each stroke is very smooth without any pause, the lines are drawn as she pleases, and the brush seems to be alive in her hands.

In just one stick of incense, a sketch of Xiao Ling was completed. It was really just like Xiao Ling's original fox, lifelike, especially a pair of eyes that looked as real as if they could blink in the next second.

Xiao Ling was so happy that she asked: "Master, did you draw me? It's really beautiful. Master, can you give it to me?"

Qibao said, "Of course, take it if you like it." Xiaoling happily held the painting with his two little paws and asked Qibao to hang his painting on the wall of the living room.
