Chapter 7 This rice is so good
Xiao Jun was a little nervous, and his heart was getting bigger and smaller.
He knew this big Leng Rui, whose nickname is Sangouzi. This was a two or three-year-old orphan collected by Yunhuo Dao Ren a few years ago.
Usually, Yunhuo is not good to him. He shouts and either beats or scolds him.
He heard from Qing'er that this Sangouzi is not good at talking, is slow in doing things, and is often beaten.
"Can such a little brat be that person?" Xiao Jun couldn't believe it.
However, what made him curious was that the little kid said the smell of wine was strange.
"Try it again! The child is not scheming and can't tell lies." Xiao Jun made up his mind.
"Come on, Master, Qing'er, congratulations on the establishment of the World Association, have a drink!" Xiao Jun raised his glass and said.
Qing'er raised her cup and drank a drink happily.
Leng Rui hesitatedly raised his cup and did not move for a long time.
Xiao Jun saw it and smiled slightly and said, "My little master, is it because it has a bad taste? How about changing another one?"
"No, no! I don't know how to drink," Leng Rui said quickly.
He was careful that children in their teens could not drink alcohol, which would make people suspicious.
"It's okay, a man, how can you not drink some wine? Come on, drink less, and you'll get it slowly!"
Xiao Jun was a little disappointed, but he still encouraged him with a smile.
Leng Rui acted reluctantly and took a sip carefully.
Xiao Jun secretly stared at Leng Rui's expression and found that he still frowned slightly.
"How is it? Master, do you still feel a little strange?" Xiao Jun asked nervously.
"Yes!" Leng Rui nodded foolishly.
"Don't talk nonsense! My wine is the best!" Qing'er interrupted angrily.
"My little master, can you tell me what it tastes like?" Xiao Jun ignored Qing'er and continued to ask.
"I can't explain it clearly, it's just uncomfortable." Leng Rui shook his head.
Xiao Jun was secretly happy. This child could definitely taste the taste of wine. It was ten years later. Maybe he was the noble person I was destined to be.
"I can't explain it clearly, just nonsense!" Qing'er glanced at Leng Rui.
"Qing'er!" Xiao Jun glared.
"Yeah!" Qing'er stopped talking.
"Don't blame me, my daughter is spoiled and she has no sense of speaking." Xiao Jun said a little apologetically.
Leng Rui just smiled and didn't say anything. He knew that this was Xiao Jun's polite words and could not be taken seriously.
"Come on, eat food! Today is a good day, two gang leaders eat more." Xiao Jun said half-jokingly, cleverly changing the topic.
"Okay, celebrate the opening of our world!" Qing'er said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll have a drink to express my congratulations." Xiao Jun drank a glass with pleasure.
"Gang Master Leng, I really envy you! I have learned a lot of immortal techniques with Dao Ren Yunhuo every day!" Xiao Jun said with a smile.
"No!" Leng Rui shook his head.
"Don't worry, your master will teach you if you are older. He is from Ziyun Mountain and has obtained the true teachings." Xiao Jun's tone was obviously envious.
Leng Rui just ate the dishes silently. The taste was so good, many times better than Tongshantang's.
"I have liked two things since I was a child, one is brewing wine and the other is practicing. The wine has achieved some success, but it is somewhat famous in the capital. However, I have achieved nothing in practice. If I can't visit famous teachers, I can only buy some books and read them by myself..." Xiao Jun talked like an old man.
After eating and drinking for a while, Xiao Jun started talking again.
"My little master, how did the strange smell in this wine come from?" Xiao Jun was obsessed with brewing wine. Now that he knew the problem, his heart was like a cat caught.
Leng Rui didn't say anything. He kept thinking in his heart, knowing that Xiao Jun was going to ask this.
He knew the reason for the strange smell in the wine, but how to answer it made him difficult. If he explained the chemical knowledge he knew, he would be afraid of causing trouble.
However, he wanted to say that when he came to this continent of cultivation, he must integrate into it as soon as possible. At least, he must also take a peek into the path of cultivation.
With Yunhuo and his wife, they probably couldn't learn anything. In the past month, they had seen through it. Yunhuo with a dead face and Hongyun with a mean face were not good people, but they just used the three of them as free laborers.
I don’t even give me a pocket money, so it’s impossible to buy a martial arts book to read it.
Now is an opportunity. If you help the Xiao family make the wine, it doesn’t matter how much you pay. The key is to borrow a few books to read.
If you fight, you will be in danger of wealth and prosperity. If you don’t become stronger as soon as possible, you may be kicked to death by Yunhuo one day.
After thinking it through, Leng Rui raised his head and said citingly: "Shopkeeper Xiao, wine is a circulating in the way of heaven, and mutual influence of yin and yang, season, solar terms, raw materials, techniques, and utensils are all crucial. No matter what is wrong, you may not be able to make good wine."
Xiao Jun, who was full of thoughts, had his eyes lit up when he heard Leng Rui's life, and his heart moved. This person must be the person that Shout Tou Tuo said.
Qing'er was a little stunned. This silly Sangouzi actually knew how to make wine and even said something big.
"Please tell me clearly!" Xiao Junhou was anxious.
"Wine should be clear but not turbid, strong but not choking, spicy but not spicy, mellow and pure, and the aroma should be pure, and the hops should not dissipate. The wine should be hung on a cup and the aftertaste is long after drinking it, so that it will be a good wine." Leng Rui said slowly.
Xiao Jun listened very carefully and nodded frequently.
"The wine of Xiao family is mellow and sweet, neither spicy nor choking, and it is a good wine for a long time." Leng Rui said again.
Xiao Jun's face showed a little lust, but it disappeared immediately. He knew that Leng Rui's words behind him were important.
"However, the nature of wine is rich and noble, and the nature of poverty and humbleness is not a common thing. I wonder what the raw materials used by Manager Xiao?"
A smile appeared on Xiao Jun's face. He said proudly: "The raw materials used by the Xiao family are fragrant rice produced on the dam, which is several times better than the rice eaten by ordinary people."
"Can you let me see?" Leng Rui said.
"Yes, my family has eaten this rice for a long time, so I'll ask someone to serve a bowl!" Xiao Jun finished speaking and ordered outside the door.
After a moment, the old housekeeper just came up with three bowls of rice and placed them one by one in front of the three of them.
"It's this rice, my little master can taste it."
Leng Rui looked at the rice in the bowl. It seemed that it was not as slender as the ones that Tongshantang usually ate, but it felt a bit round and moist. It was as color as rouge, delicate and shiny as agate.
As soon as I picked up the bowl, a tempting fragrance came to my nose, which was much more fragrant than usual.
Pick a bite and put it in your mouth and chew it slowly. It really leaves a fragrance on your mouth.
Leng Rui dared to say that even without Lai, he would be fine if he had three or five bowls.
The rice grains are chewy and can't stop.
"It's so delicious!" Leng Rui said.
"This is agate rice, produced on the dam. It is not only a strange fragrance, but also extremely resistant to steaming and cooking. It can be refilled three times without rotten. The Xiao family has always been unambiguous in making wine, and they use the best raw materials." Xiao Jun continued.
"I understand! I said our rice is the best, but you don't believe it!" Qing'er also curled her lips.
"It's just that the rice is so good that the wine has a strange smell!" Leng Rui said softly.
"What?" Two voices of the old and the young sounded at the same time.
