Chapter 122 Cold Beer VS 82 Lafite
This is not the first time Ji Yang has come here to the Li family's residence. Yesterday, he promised Li Zixuan that he would come to the Li family's house for dinner today, so as soon as he got off work, Ji Yang drove Li Zixuan to the Li family's house.
People in the Li family are very enthusiastic about Ji Yang, especially after what happened to Li Zixuan. Li Xinghai and Fang Yu may have been a little dissatisfied with Ji Yang's identity and background before, but since the last incident about Li Zixuan, they all thought that Li Zixuan
They are so discerning, the Li family has simply found a treasure.
"Fang Yu, go get my 1982 Lafite. I want to have a good drink with Ji Yang today."
The meal prepared by the Li family today is not very sumptuous. It is ordinary in ordinary people's homes. For super rich people like the Li family, it is not worth mentioning.
If there were outsiders present at this time, they might think that the Li family did not pay attention to Ji Yang at all and did not take Ji Yang seriously. In fact, it was just the opposite.
These home-cooked dishes were cooked by Fang Yu herself. From the first step of buying the food to the last step of serving it, Fang Yu did it all by herself. Even Li Xinghai helped. Fang Yu rarely cooks.
When talking about Fang Yu cooking, Li Xinghai also joked that he was influenced by Ji Yang.
Treating guests to a banquet with a table of lavish and eye-catching delicacies may not necessarily mean that the other party really values you. On the contrary, home-cooked dishes such as those made by the Li family can truly treat Ji Yang from the heart. They have regarded Ji Yang as their own.
people.
Even Ji Yang, who doesn’t know much about red wine, has heard of Lafite in 1982, because whether it is in movies, TV series or novels, Lafite in 1982 is always mentioned as if it is synonymous with rich people.
, as if shaking a glass of 1982 Lafite is the symbol of fashion and the most expensive.
Isn’t it said that the longer the wine is stored, the better?
Wouldn't the Lafite of 1981 or even 1970 be better? Why must we mention the Lafite of 1982? Ji Yang even searched for information out of curiosity.
It turns out that 1982 was a rare grape harvest year in the history of French wine. The quality of wine depends largely on the quality of grapes, and the quality of grapes is closely related to climate, environment and other factors. A good grape year is more important than ordinary grapes.
Winemaking is very important, and 1982 was the last great wine year in the world.
Lafite is one of the top five famous wineries in France. This does not mean that Lafite is the best. It is just because Lafite is the earliest French wine brand known to people in China and entered China earlier, so people often mention it.
he.
To be honest, I don’t know if it’s because Ji Yang doesn’t know how to taste red wine, or something else. When Ji Yang drank the 1982 Lafite that everyone praised, he didn’t feel anything special. He had to say that it was different from the ordinary red wine he had drunk before.
If anything, the wine looks clearer and tastes more fragrant.
Li Xinghai tasted the Lafite with a look of enjoyment on his face. When he saw Ji Yang's frown, his eyes were a little surprised. Could it be that this wine is not good?
"Ji Yang, don't you like this 1982 Lafite?"
Li Xinghai asked Ji Yang softly. After hearing Li Xinghai's question, Fang Yu and Li Zixuan also looked at Ji Yang.
Fang Yu and Li Zixuan both rarely drink, but they also think the 1982 Lafite tastes good. Why does Ji Yang think it tastes bad?
"Um, no, I just always heard the name of Lafite in 1982 and thought it would float after one sip. But now when I drink it, it just feels like that. It's better to drink cold beer."
Ji Yang said very seriously. Seeing his serious look, everyone in the Li family was stunned.
Comparing the 1982 Lafite with ice-cold beer, no one other than Ji Yang would say that the 1982 Lafite is not as refreshing and delicious as the ice-cold beer.
If his words were to spread, not to mention whether the people at Chateau Lafite would be upset, a group of people who regard 1982 Lafite as a symbol of fashion and status would probably be so angry that they would vomit blood.
Seeing the shocked expressions of the Li family when they looked at him, Ji Yang smiled mysteriously.
"Cold beer really tastes better than 1982 Lafite, don't you believe it?"
"Zixuan, go get some ice cubes. Remember to have a big basin and put more ice cubes in it."
When Li Zixuan heard what Ji Yang said, she was a little surprised as to why Ji Yang asked her to take ice cubes and put them in a big basin. Did he want to keep the beer cold?
But Ji Yang had no intention of explaining, so he stood up and left. When he came back, he actually had a sealed wine jar in his hand.
Although she didn't know what Ji Yang was going to do, Li Zixuan still filled a large basin with a lot of ice cubes according to Ji Yang's instructions. Fortunately, the Li family usually freezes a lot of ice cubes, otherwise it would be really difficult to get so many ice cubes.
After Ji Yang placed the wine jar in his hand directly into the basin filled with ice cubes, he sat down.
"Ji Yang, what is in this wine jar?"
Before, Li Zixuan always thought that Ji Yang would bring some beer and put it on ice, but when Ji Yang came back, he didn't see any beer, only Ji Yang brought a sealed wine jar.
"Beer, wait a moment and you will believe what I say is true."
Beer? Is beer bottled in this kind of wine jar?
If Ji Yang said that the wine jar was filled with liquor, the Li family would think it was normal. After all, many liquors are collected like this, but when Ji Yang said it was beer, they didn't believe it.
"Don't look at me like that. Let's eat first. In an hour, you will believe what I say."
The wine jar in Jiyang is indeed filled with beer, and it was brewed by the god of wine, Du Kang.
At that time, Du Kang gave Ji Yang a large jar of beer. The beer weighed twenty or thirty kilograms. The beer brewed by Du Kang was different from ordinary beer. Not only would people not feel uncomfortable after drinking this beer, but they would feel...
It is very refreshing, and has the effect of relieving fatigue, relaxing the meridians and activating the meridians.
Du Kang gave Ji Yang the beer, but Ji Yang only drank some. Today he originally planned to ask Du Kang for some newly brewed beer to give to the Li family.
But when he found Du Kang, Du Kang's beer was simply in short supply. In the end, Ji Yang had no choice but to ask Du Kang for a small wine jar that could hold five kilograms of beer. He divided some of the beer that Du Kang gave him before and gave it to the Li family.
.
It's strange to say that if ordinary beer is opened, it will become unpleasant to drink after a day or two no matter how well it is stored. However, the beer Du Kang gave him has not changed at all after being opened for so long.
Ji Yang also asked Du Kang why. The reason was Du Kang's wine jar, so he asked Du Kang for a wine jar to hold the beer, otherwise the taste of the beer would change and it would become unpalatable.
As everyone in the Li family waited with some anticipation and curiosity, an hour passed quickly.
Ji Yang saw that the time was up, so he brought the wine jar over. When he opened the wine seal, everyone saw that the wine jar actually contained beer.
Li Xinghai actually didn't like the taste of beer, but when Ji Yang opened the bottle, he didn't feel any discomfort.
"You guys have a taste."
Ji Yang poured three glasses of beer and handed them to Li Xinghai, Fang Yu and Li Zixuan respectively.
