Chapter 285 – White Wine You Can’t Get Out of Your Head
by Jessie@AFNCCWei Yi Chen also tasted it and found it to be a good wine with a strong aroma.
Even Lu Yuhong, who has not drunk a lot of white wine, could not help but sigh with emotion, “This white wine is not the least bit inferior to the ones I drank in the capital, the owner of this Drunken Immortal Residence is really some doorway in ah.”
Lu Yuhong is very knowledgeable, even he said that this white wine is good, it is bound to be wrong.
When Xu Feng Yuan saw that everyone loved the wine so much, he was busy replacing the shopkeeper.
“Serve us a few more jugs of this white wine, we’re going to have a blast.”
The fellow was full of apologies, “I’m sorry Mr. Xu, this wine is left in this last pot, no more, not even one cup.”
“What’s going on? Why is there only this pot of such a fine wine?” Xu Feng Yuan asked.
Lu Yuhong was also a bit dissatisfied, “Your Mr. Fan is so ungrateful, if you have good wine, don’t hide it, why are you so stingy? Are you afraid we won’t be able to pay for the wine?”
Buddy quickly explained: “not so, this wine is someone else in our drunken fairy house on behalf of the sale, a total of one altar, the front of those sold out a few days ago, this last pot is my son specially kept, today see is Xu Gongzi Lu Gongzi and so on to come, only to let the small out to let a few Gongzi tasting tasting, other people come to say that there is not. “
This explanation from the fellow doused Lu Yuhong’s fire.
“Your Van Duke is kind of on his way.”
Lu Yuhong accepted this, but he was dissatisfied that there was only so much wine left, and for this one pot of wine, there were eight of them, and each of them couldn’t drink more than two cups, so how could they enjoy themselves?
Xu Fengyuan then asked the fellow, “Then do you know who the person selling the wine is? Where can I buy this wine again?”
The fellow was busy saying, “I’m not sure about this, I’ll have to ask my son.”
This was because earlier on, their shopkeeper had explained that if anyone asked what seasonings were used in the store’s dishes, they would say that they didn’t know, and that they must never mention this person, Mr. Xu, to outsiders.
Because this is the doorway for their Drunken Immortal House to make money, if everyone knows about it, it will affect their Drunken Immortal House’s business.
So he said the same thing about the white wine this time, just in case someone else had bypassed their Drunken Immortal Residence to go to Duke Xu.
“Your family’s male son did this, hooked a few of us up with our wine bugs but didn’t give a damn, it’s really abrasive.” Lu Yuhong said without any good humor.
The fellow could only smile and say, “Mr. Lu, please don’t be angry, if my son finds this wine again, he will not forget you, Mr. Lu.”
Xu Fengyuan didn’t continue to make things difficult for the fellow and said, “You go down first, and serve us two more pots of the other good wine as well.”
“Okay, Mr. Xu, don’t worry, I’ll bring you the best wine sold in our store!”
The fellow replied and exited the room.
After a while two more pots of fine Daughter’s Red were brought to the few people in the elegant room.
This is thirty years old Daughter Red, the best selling wine in Drunken Immortal Residence on weekdays.
However, after a few people drank the white wine just now, and then tasted this daughter red in front of them, more or less feel that there is a lack of some flavor.
Lu Yuhong couldn’t help but say, “When I ask where this wine came from, I’ll high and low have to have the water transport a few jars back to the capital.”
As we all know, the Lu family’s old man is a happy wine, Lu Yuhong wants to transport wine back to the capital is definitely for the Lu family’s old man, but also for the high recognition of the white wine just now.
Words present a few people are on the heart, thinking back to help find that wine place, when sent to Lu Yuhong is also a favor.
Like the Lu family old man like characters, not to mention their small Taizhou Province, even the capital is not a few people do not want to get involved with him.
To be appreciated by Elder Lu is to have one foot in the door of the court.
With the wine out of reach, several people sipped their daughter’s red and talked about inspecting the people.
Some think that this year’s harvest will be better than last year’s, others think that this year’s harvest will be even worse than last year’s, but both are united in the belief that this year’s harvest will certainly not catch up with previous years, and therefore this winter will be even more difficult than previous years.
The crowd then went on to offer their suggestions and opinions on how to avoid a plague.
Wei Yichen, who was usually the most praised by the gentleman among the crowd, was silent at the moment.
He couldn’t help but think of Ruo’er’s sister, who, although she didn’t fit in with the usual do-gooder behavior, was able to actually help the people increase their food production.
In a way, she knew more about the people’s plight and how to truly work for the people’s well-being than they, the literate readers.

After seven days, Wei Ruo finally stepped through the door of the Drunken Immortal Residence again.
As soon as he entered, Boss Shen greeted him.
“Mr. Xu, you’ve finally arrived!”
Boss Shen’s tone was agitated, excitement in his demeanor, jogging towards Wei Ruo as he spoke.
Because his footsteps were too hasty, he almost ran directly into Wei Ruo.
Luckily, Xiu Mei was quick, blocking Wei Ruo’s heels while also helping Boss Shen stabilize his body.
Xiu Mei laughed: “Shopkeeper Shen, take it easy, welcome my young master, but you still have to be safe!”
Boss Shen smiled in embarrassment, “I’m sorry Mr. Xu, I’ve been looking forward to you for a few days, and I sent someone to send a letter to Younan Farm, but the people in the manor said that you’ve been busy with something for the past few days and haven’t returned to the manor.”
Xu Heyu’s whereabouts are even more erratic than their son’s, and Boss Shen is anxious to see him, but there’s no good way to do it other than going to Wei Ruo’s manor to deliver a letter.
If Xu Heyu didn’t show up, he could only wait.
“I went out of town by boat in the past few days and only returned yesterday.” Wei Ruo excused herself.
In fact, these days are in the school lieutenant’s residence and Tianqin garden both sides of the run, have free time to go to the governor’s residence as a guest to give Mrs. Yuan ideas.
“I know that Mr. Xu is a busy man, and I’m fortunate that Mr. Xu came today.” Shopkeeper Shen excitedly told Wei Ruo about that altar of white wine, “Mr. Xu’s altar of white wine my son has already sold it for you, and those who have drunk it have all rated it very well! My son would like to discuss this matter with Mr. Xu!”
Wei Ruo: “Where is your son now?”
Boss Shen: “It’s upstairs in the elegant room, the usual place.”
Wei Ruo: “Take me to him.”
Boss Shen: “Okay, okay, this way please, Mr. Xu.”
Mr. Shen led Wei Ruo and Xiu Mei up to the second floor, or the “Crane Pavilion” elegant room at the end of the corridor.
Boss Shen opened the door for Wei Ruo, and inside the room, Fan Chengxu raised his head and saw Wei Ruo amused and angry.
“Brother Wo right, you made me wait.”
“What makes you say that, Boss Fan? I don’t remember you and I having an appointment before.” Wei Ruo smiled back with a shallow smile, falling into a seat across from her.
The two were already familiar with each other, and Wei Ruo was no longer polite with Fan Chengxu.
