Chapter 284: A Daughter Can Still Control Her Old Father

Wei Ruo reached out and undid the lid of the wine jar in Xiu Mei’s arms.

Upon this uncovering, a strong scent of wine wafted out, instantly filling the entire study.

Wei Mingting, who had drunk countless amounts of wine, immediately smelled that this was good wine.

Wei Mingting cried and laughed: “Ruo’er ah, you’re going to kill my father ah. If this wine were to be put aside in normal times, my father would have to drink it to his heart’s content, but now my father has not yet recovered from his injuries.”

“Well, the injury hasn’t healed all no drinking.” Wei Ruo seconded.

“Then why did you bring such a fine wine?” Wei Mingting asked.

Wei Ruo explained unhurriedly, “If father is willing to take a good rest, his body will be able to recover as soon as possible, and then he will be able to drink wine; if he is not willing to take a good rest, his body will be able to recover in March or May, and then the day when father can drink wine will be delayed later as well.”

At the words Wei Mingting froze, then smiled bitterly, “Ruo child you this persuade for the father not to worry about the law is not too ……”

A little too special.

Mrs. persuade him are bitterly let him rest more, change to the daughter here can be good, directly set up a jar of wine in front of him, let him see and smell and drink.

“I didn’t persuade my father of anything, I just told him the truth.”

Immediately after that, Wei Ruo took out the marinated flavors wrapped in greaseproof paper and opened a pack of marinated duck necks in front of Wei Mingting.

The brown duck necks were glistening with crystallized oil and the aroma was equally enticing.

“I’ve also brought some downers for father, with brined duck necks and brined duck feet and a packet of brined pig’s ears.”

Wei Mingting couldn’t help but cry and laugh, the wine wouldn’t let him drink not to mention, this also had to bring a bunch of dishes.

“Ruo’er, are you testing my father’s willpower?”

“Father’s willpower has always been too much, that is, the sword into the bone also failed to make father fear half a point, the district wine and food, how can it shake father?” Wei Ruo said.

Wei Mingting was speechless.

Looking at Wei Ruo, there was nothing extra on his small face, no tenderness or concern.

The same words she said were not bitter or assiduous, but Wei Mingting felt his daughter’s concern for him.

Wei Ming Ting couldn’t help but smile, “My father will be busy here today, and go back to the backyard dining hall with you, can you accompany my father to have a meal?”

Wei Ming Ting today in the study to stay until now has not yet used the morning meal, his wife is not there is no one to remind persuade him, and he is a busy forget the time of the Lord.

“Good.” Wei Ruo agreed.

After that, Wei Mingting let someone go ahead and inform the kitchen to prepare the food, while he himself walked back to the backyard dining hall with Wei Ruo unhurriedly.

After sitting down, Wei Ruo will bring the lo mei are placed on the table, and then let Xiu Mei back to listen to the pine garden to fetch the winter melon tea over, this is the last time to make a good after not finished drinking.

Under Wei Mingting’s gaze, Wei Ruo brewed a large bowl for Wei Mingting.

“What is this?” Wei Mingting asked.

“This drink is called winter melon tea. Although father can’t drink alcohol, he can still have some drinks to go with these lo mein.” Wei Ruo explained.

It’s okay to eat food and not drink beverages.

“Good.” Wei Mingting tasted the winter melon tea Wei Ruo brewed for him with curiosity.

The taste is sweet and delicious, although it can not be compared with wine, but it has a special flavor to drink.

Immediately after Wei Mingting tasted the marinated flavors Wei Ruo brought back, marinated pig’s ear he had tasted before, marinated duck neck and marinated duck claw is still the first time.

The duck goods tasted different from the pig’s ear ones, but the flavors were equally amazing to him.

Paired with the flavorful and refreshing winter melon tea, Wei Mingting tasted it with gusto.

By the time the subordinates brought up the dishes prepared by the kitchen for the lunch, Wei Mingting had already eaten seven or eight minutes of fullness.

After finishing the lunch, Wei Ruo said to Wei Mingting, “I’ll keep that jar of wine for father, and I’ll send it over to father once he’s fully recovered.”

“That can be agreed upon, Ruo’er mo give it to someone else.” Wei Mingting laughed.

He had two sons at his knee, Wei Yi Chen and Wei Yi Lin, as well as Wei Qing Wan as his adopted daughter, but when he got along with his other children, he was more serious and majestic most of the time.

Somehow, instead, it was his eldest daughter, who he hadn’t spent much time with, who made him smile more, and the two of them were more relaxed and pleasant to be around.

“No, I promised you.” Wei Ruo replied.

Yun was a little surprised to find her husband dutifully recuperating in the backyard when she returned in the afternoon.

After listening to the subordinate said that the eldest daughter specially persuade, said that after persuasion, the master not only on time meal, also do not go to the front yard.

Yun asked how exactly he was persuaded, but the underlings didn’t know either.

Yun was still very happy, her husband’s health had always been something she was worried about, but she had been unable to persuade him, and now that her eldest daughter’s persuasion was useful, it was naturally the best.

May 15, the day of rest.

The government office has been promoting late rice seeds and sweet potatoes for a few days now, and the work of purchasing fertilizer and composting is underway, but the cloud that hangs over Taizhou Province has not lifted.

Anzhou Academy proposes that the students go to the fields to observe the people’s situation during their breaks, and only when they understand the most important things of the day will they know how to answer the questions and how to be a court official in the future.

Wei Yi-chen and Xu Feng-yuan, who are usually more friendly, took advantage of this rest day to inspect the fields, and Lu Yuhong was among them.

A few people on the way to talk loudly about their views on the people’s plight of food arrears.

When noon was ten minutes, Xu Fengyuan was the host and invited all of them to have lunch at Drunken Immortal Residence.

Asked for an elegant room, a group of eight people just filled.

Xu Fengyuan ordered a table of Drunken Immortal Residence’s signature dishes and another pot of good wine.

The store assistant served a jug of wine to the crowd, and Xu Fengyuan filled it up for them, but was soon surprised by the color and smell of the wine.

The wine has a strong aroma, but it is as clear as water, without any turbidity, and it is as white and transparent as a clear spring.

This looks like white wine.

The crowd then asked Lu Yuhong, who had drunk the most white wine at the table, “Mr. Lu, you are very knowledgeable, do you think this wine is white wine?”

Lu Yuhong only lightly looked at it twice and said, “The color is undoubtedly white wine, it’s just that I don’t know how it tastes.”

It was really white wine after all.

White wine is hard to come by, and there are very few wineries that can brew pure white wine, and even if there are, they are clustered around the capital.

Taizhou Province occasionally have white wine, but also brought from other places, there is no such local brewery.

Now that they had seen such a quality of white wine within this Drunken Immortal Residence, it really surprised and amazed the crowd.

With doubt and curiosity, the crowd tasted it.

Compared to the more common yellow wine, white wine has a strong and robust flavor, which can be a little off-putting for the first time, but can also be wonderful when tasted in detail.

“It’s better to be known than to be seen, this is the first time I’ve had this white wine, and the flavor is really different.”

“This wine is a bit strong at first taste, the feeling of fire and spiciness goes down and keeps warming into the spleen and stomach, flowing like a stream and stretching like a mountain range, it is really a good wine.”

The crowd gave good reviews.
