Chapter 903
Shen Hao felt a serious literary temperament on Yu Shu, humble, knowledgeable, well-educated, and clear eyes with a slight calculating taste that he was commonplace.
Seeing Yu Shu, Shen Hao unconsciously remembered the junior high school principal who was impressed by him in another world.
Logically speaking, most literati do not like people under the Xuanqingwei system and regard them as barbaric and cancer. But since the meeting, Shen Hao felt no disgust on Yu Shu.
Either Yu Shu was so deep that Shen Hao could not see the other person's true thoughts in his heart. Or Yu Shu himself was as friendly as he showed, and had no disgust or resistance to Xuan Qingwei. At this time, he was just contacting Shen Hao with the attitude of an ordinary friend.
Shen Hao never stings with the worst ideas to guess a stranger, and likes to use time to slowly clarify a person's context. Wang Yiming is the most direct example. He has been with Shen Hao for so long and has been repeatedly tested and polished, but he has not yet gained the absolute trust of Shen Hao.
However, contact with Yu Shu made Shen Hao feel relaxed, but it was true.
"This wine doesn't seem to be very different, but there are thousands of changes in it. There are surprises in every subtle thing. I like to savor it. I think doing things is the same as drinking, so I can't be careless. So over time, I have a set of feelings about various wines. In my spare time, I mix the collected wines, and there will always be new discoveries, new tastes, and new fun..."
Just by these words, Shen Hao was sure that Yu Shu was definitely a real person who was good at drinking, and was even more researched than him.
Shen Hao could make a few more words at first, but then he could only blink his eyes and listen. What kind of fruit wine is divided into seven categories? There are several categories of sake wine, and there are still big differences? It turns out that the spirit wine is not only Wuliangye and Shenxianjiu, but there are several kinds, but it is even less seen...
Today, Shen Hao really opened his eyes.
There were two jars of wine and earthenware jars, about five kilograms per jar. The inside was filled with Wuliangye made from two years. Not to mention buying it outside, there were very few people who had heard of it. It was a secret that there was no takeout in the Zhangjia wine shop, and even fewer people could enjoy it.
Today, Shen Hao brought two jars, and even Kuang Shengyuan next to him had a shiny eye. He took them out in his heart and had the chance to try them. After all, today he was a wine tasting.
As a result, he held the wine jar with one hand and pushed it to the side, indicating that he would not use this wine today.
"This Wuliangye strong wine could have been mixed with some wine, but I have prepared some at home. However, the two-year-old wine has a different saying, and it has become a natural line. It is not appropriate to mix other wines in. So next time, I will find a chance to taste it carefully next time." Yu Shu said this without any embarrassment. Then he waved his hand, and the butler next to him hurriedly carried the two jars of wine.
This scene made Shen Hao laugh, and Kuang Shengyuan also laughed and joked with Yu Shu, saying "stingy".
The whole atmosphere became even more lively.
"Brother Yu, you took the good wine away. Then you can't show off your skills today!" Kuang Shengyuan quipped.
"Haha, this is natural. Please, let's change to a place suitable for drinking before chatting?" Yu Shu was in a good mood, and he laughed and stood up, then led Shen Hao and Kuang Shengyuan out of the main hall and walked towards a small bamboo forest on the left side of the house.
Planting bamboo at home? If you don’t have some taste, you can’t do such things. Because although the bamboo forest looks comfortable, once it comes to summer, there will be groups of bamboo mosquitoes. The thing is much smaller than ordinary mosquitoes, but the taste is better than ordinary flower-foot mosquitoes when you bite it.
So Shen Hao can only attribute this to the elegance of the literati. Anyway, he definitely doesn't plant so many bamboos at home.
It was early April, and it was Qizhou again, so it was very comfortable to sit in the bamboo forest in the cool weather. There were no mosquitoes, only the sound of the rustling wind blowing the bamboo leaves, just like the background sound, which felt very ethereal.
In the middle of the bamboo forest is a thatched pavilion, with a table, three chairs, and a three-layer wooden frame.
The most eye-catching thing is the bottles and jars on the wooden rack. According to Yu Shu's previous words, Shen Hao guessed that the bottles and jars should contain various fine wines. Recently, Shen Hao also saw the Wuliangye earthen jars unique to Zhangjia Wine Shop on the shelf.
"Two, please!"
Yu Shu led a moment, and then the three of them entered the thatched pavilion and sat down together.
"These are the wine I collect and some auxiliary ingredients that I will use when mixing. Well, the auxiliary ingredients are usually some plant juices or powders, with different tastes, some ups and downs and sweets, and different combinations always have different tastes."
Yu Shu said as he began to take out things from the wooden rack on the side and start to adjust them. He laughed and moved while talking. Each move seemed natural and rhythmic, and looked pleasing to the eye.
Soon, the mixing results of three small cups of about three cents arrived on the table, with three people each cup.
"This is a "qingyou" suitable for appetizing wine, please!"
After a call for wine, Yu Shu did it first and suffocated the small cup in his hand in one gulp.
Shen Hao and Kuang Shengyuan then took a drink, and Shen Hao felt a sense of tranquility. The wine was the light sake he usually sneered at, but now it was quite good after Yu Shu's mixing. After one drink, the wine worm in his stomach seemed to be awakened, full of expectations.
While chatting, he joked and drank. Yu Shu was very talkative. Even when he talked to Shen Hao about some murder cases investigated by Xuan Qingwei, he could still say a few words, which had good reasoning logic.
Of course, the wine will not stop, one cup after another. It also allowed Shen Hao to see that in this world, drinking can be elegant, and full of leisure fun.
However, Yu Shu is good at wine, but he claims to be average in alcohol. He mainly drinks lightly. For example, the kind of spirits he mixed, named "Lava" by Yu Shu, only one glass was prepared for Shen Hao and Kuang Shengyuan each. He himself respected Xie Bumin, saying that as the main family, he should not be drunk and neglected.
Shen Hao's alcohol content was very good. He didn't feel drunk except for being addicted to alcohol. However, Kuang Shengyuan's neck was a little red, and it was obvious that he was getting drunk.
Miscellaneous wine has a strong potential, and if you drink it lightly, it will be easy to pour it down like this.
"Mr. Shen likes strong liquor. In addition to "lava", I have another stronger liquor, which is the main liquor I chose. I call it "noon". It's very strong. Do you want to try it?"
Shen Hao nodded, and although Kuang Shengyuan had a little less alcohol tolerance, he was curious and wanted to try it.
