Chapter 100 Grandma Yu’s wine

The Lu family's parents were coming to visit. In addition to arranging their food and accommodation in Fenghe Village, the Yu family also began to plan the local specialties for Lu's father and mother to take home.

First there were several jars of wine brewed by Grandma Yu. The old man personally took Yu Jiang and Lu Beiyuan to the wine room to choose the wine.

It was only then that Yu Jiang got a glimpse of how rich his wine collection was.

The entire twenty- to thirty-square-meter room is filled with the wine that Grandma Yu has been brewing over the years. It is placed on shelves more than two meters high. Each shelf has more than a dozen wine tanks weighing more than 20 kilograms. , Grandma Yu also thoughtfully marked the year and time it was brewed.

Yu Jiang silently counted the years and the amount of wine stored here.

Good guy! There are actually old wines from more than fifty years ago! How delicious this would be!

Yu Jiang was in a hurry last time, and he just wanted to taste a little, so he didn't take a closer look at how much wine there was. At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh: "Grandma, you are doing too much for my grandfather and my father's little hobby. Let's fight..."

Speaking of what she is good at, Grandma Yu is also very proud.

"No! My father was once famous for making wine. The wines made by our ancestors were treasures used for tribute, and ordinary people could not buy them if they had money.

That is to say, by your grandfather's generation, everyone in the family was almost wiped out due to the war, and our family's wine-making inheritance was almost cut off. Finally, your grandfather gritted his teeth and broke the rule that the family's wine-making skills were passed down from male to female. All his skills were passed on to me, which kept our family’s legacy intact. "

Although Grandma Yu talks calmly now, thinking about it, she and her grandfather must have been under a lot of pressure at the time.

"Later, your grandfather's health became worse and worse, and I also married your grandfather, so although our family was still making wine these years, we didn't exchange it for money.

After all these years, not many people in the village know that I can make wine. "

After finishing speaking, Grandma Yu looked helplessly at the wine in the room, "No, I make a few jars every year, and I have accumulated so much now."

Yu Jiang sniffed the aroma of wine in the air: "No wonder you always keep an eye on this room. If my grandfather got the key and slipped in..."

"No! If your grandpa sneaks in, he won't be able to give my good wine to Huo Huo."

"What a pity!" Grandma Yu glanced at Yu Jiang and sighed helplessly: "Originally, I wanted to pass on this wine-making process to you, and then you would continue to pass it on, but why are you such a kitchen idiot!"

Yu Jiang expressed that she was very aggrieved, obviously she hadn’t tried it yet! Why did her grandma tell her she couldn't do it?

Grandma Yu seemed to see the dissatisfaction in Yu Jiang's eyes, so she brought Yu Jiang to a jar of wine stored separately, opened the seal, poured some out and handed it to Yu Jiang.

Yu Jiang didn't think much about it, thinking there was something different about this wine, so he took a big sip without thinking.

In the next second, Yu Jiang's face became extremely ugly. He held a sip of wine in his mouth and it was not like he didn't drink it, nor did he drink it.

In the end, Yu Jiang still swallowed the wine in his mouth with difficulty, and at the same time, as if he had realized something, he asked Grandma Yu for confirmation: "Grandma, can't I make this jar of wine?"

Grandma Yu immediately became happy, "I thought you girl had lost her memory and wasn't going to admit it!

Isn't this what you brewed yourself when you were 15? I also wasted a lot of materials and ended up with this thing!

Fortunately, I listened to your mother and kept this jar of wine, otherwise I wouldn't have seen such a scene today! You promised us that it would taste good after two years. Is this what you said it would taste good after two years? "

Yu Jiang grimaced, admitting defeat for his overconfident 15-year-old self: "Grandma, why don't we just pour this wine, so as not to harm others?"

"Ha ha!"

"Pfft!"

Two kinds of laughter reached Yu Jiang's ears. The one who made no secret of it was her grandma, and the one who finally couldn't hold it back...

Ah! Isn't this her target?

Yu Jiang handed the wine bowl in the direction of Lu Beiyuan: "I think you also want to have a taste? You're welcome! This bowl is yours. If it's not enough, there's another jar here."

Lu Beiyuan regretted it the moment he laughed out loud. He felt even worse after hearing Yu Jiang's words. Yu Jiang became angry with shame!

Lu Beiyuan, who had just succeeded in taking over, said that he did not want to be the first person to become single because the wine he joked about tasted bad. Even if he had a rough idea of ​​the wine in front of him, he could only accept it from Yu Jiang. Drink the wine that came over.

How should I put it? Even if he hadn't drank much wine, he knew that the sourness mixed with bitterness, the bitterness and a little salty taste did not belong to any normal wine.

Yu Jiang was still making up for it: "You're welcome, this wine contains good things like ginseng and deer antlers!"

Grandma Yu was very surprised, "That's right. I have made great progress after studying medicine. I can actually taste your grandfather's treasure with such a taste!"

Yu Jiang asked Grandma Yu again, not sure, "Do the medicinal materials here belong to my grandfather?"

"No, the medicinal materials that the old man has treasured for a long time were taken by you, a little girl, to make wine for Huo Huo!"

Although Grandma Yu complained like this, there was no hint of blame in her tone. It was obvious that although the medicinal materials were precious, it was not a waste if they were used by her granddaughter.

Yu Jiang took great advantage of this and took Grandma Yu's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandma, wasn't I ignorant at that time? Now I can make money by myself. You can leave the materials for making wine to me, no matter how precious it is. I can get it all for you."

Grandma Yu looked at Lu Beiyuan who had finally recovered from the drunkenness and started pointing at the jars of wine to introduce it to Lu Beiyuan.

Without even looking at the labels she had made before, Grandma Yu introduced all the wines in her collection.

Lu Beiyuan also tried a lot of wines along the way. Each wine had a different taste due to the different grains used and the changes in temperature.

There are also some that Grandma Yu has improved by adding other ingredients, such as wine with osmanthus added, which will have an aroma of osmanthus. Although this kind of wine is not mainstream, it still has a unique flavor if you take a few sips occasionally.

Based on his understanding of Lu Fu, Yu Jiang chose a wine with a mellow taste and strong staying power.

Well, soldiers should all like this kind of bar.

Finally, when he was about to go out, Yu Jiang found many bottles of Maotai liquor in the corner. An unfilial thought appeared in Yu Jiang's mind: "Grandma, you have brewed so much wine, and my dad actually came from outside." Buy some wine!”

How could Grandma Yu not see Yu Jiang's little thoughts? She followed Yu Jiang's words and replied: "Of course, didn't I take care of him?"

Then Grandma Yu changed her tone: "But you are just a girl stirring up trouble here. Are you not afraid to tell your dad and ask him to deal with you?"

Okay, if you fail to steal the chicken, you will lose the rice. Yu Jiangzhihao continued to coax the old lady and asked her not to tell Yu's father.
