While it was still early, they hurried up the mountain, and came down to Uncle Man's house. When they went, Uncle Man happened to be there. Seeing the two of them coming, they warmly welcomed them into the room.

When Xiaoman saw Yuan Liuzhen, he called "Master". Yuan Liuzhen smiled and said, "Xiaoman doesn't need to call you Master like that, you can just call him Brother. Now I am no longer in the village to teach you how to read."

After hearing this, Xiaoman didn't say anything, but he was a little unhappy. He showed Yuan Liuzhen the wooden board he had recently practiced calligraphy. I couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and praised it without reservation.

After hearing this, Xiaoman was much happier, and told him that Xiaoyanzi practiced writing with him every day.

Yuan Liuzhen felt even more relieved after hearing this. Although he taught the Murakami children to read and ended in a bad way, it is also a very good thing to help Xiaoman find a partner to play with.

After Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu were invited to sit down, Uncle Man took out a lot of pastries from the cabinet and put them on the table one by one.Yuan Liuzhen was taken aback for a moment. She had spent a lot of time with Uncle Man, and knew that Uncle Man was a frugal person. He would not spend so much money on pastries except for occasional snacks for Xiao Man.Uncle Man also took out a palm-sized bottle, poured clear liquid from the bottle, handed it to him and Tao Fu, and then explained the reason: "Yesterday, a distant relative and his daughter brought it here. Try it, it tastes really good."

"Wine?" Tao Fu looked forward to it for a while. He knew that wine was expensive, and it was not something to fill his stomach. He had never bought it, only drank it once, and only drank a little. He liked the taste very much.

What Yuan Liuzhen thought was that he and Tao Fu had been brewing wine for almost a month, and it was almost ready to drink. Tomorrow, they would just entertain Uncle Man and Li Niang for dinner, so they could bring a few jars with them when they returned.

"Yes, wine, I know you haven't drank it, so you and Zhenzhen will drink more when you come here today." Uncle Man smiled heartily: "Tell me while eating cakes, what are you doing these days, every time you pass by the thatched cottage on the mountain , No one, if it weren't for Ah'Ban would come to my place often, every time I was full, I would have suspected that you had gone to other places."

"We came here today to tell you about this." Yuan Liuzhen replied: "Recently we have been busy selling horseradish and crispy rice in Litang Town. We often get up early and stay late to collect money, so we haven't had time to tell you. However, we have been busy for nearly a month. It's worth it, we bought a yard in Liyao Village, and we came here today mainly to invite Uncle Man to visit our house tomorrow."

"That's good, that's good. I'm free tomorrow. I'll take Xiaoman there early in the morning." Uncle Man heard that the two bought a yard in Liyao Village, and he was happier than buying a yard himself.In fact, after Tao Fu lived on the mountain, he had been worried that Tao Fu would not be safe living on the mountain, and he was also worried that Tao Fu would not sleep well.Living together on the mountain together, Yuan Liuzhen will definitely sleep uncomfortable. Now that he has a yard, he is really happy for the two of them, "It's such a big happy event, we should drink two more glasses."

Uncle Man raised his glass, and Tao Fu and Yuan Liuzhen also raised their glasses to clink with Uncle Man before they drank.

Yuan Liuzhen came to this world to drink alcohol for the first time. The taste of this wine is very similar to modern baijiu. It is spicy and pungent. If you drink too much, you will definitely get drunk, but the taste is very good.

Tao Fu took a sip of the wine, and when the tip of his tongue touched the spiciness, he was attracted by the taste of the wine. It really was the taste in his memory, and it was delicious.

After the two had a drink, Uncle Man was happier knowing that the two had bought the yard. He let them eat pastries and poured wine for them while talking and laughing. Unknowingly, the two drank too much.

Tao Fu seemed to talk too much after drinking too much, and kept praising Yuan Liuzhen for being so good at selling things, making money, drawing and writing beautifully, and being a good person.

At the end of the drink, Tao Fu said to Uncle Man: "Zhenzhen and I have also brewed wine, please drink with Li Niang and the others tomorrow."

Yuan Liuzhen's drunkenness was not as obvious as Tao Fu's. At this time, Tao Fu's whole face was flushed abnormally, and he was speaking very fast.

Seeing that Tao Fu was drunk, Uncle Man started talking nonsense, not daring to let Tao Fu drink more, he looked at Yuan Liuzhen who didn't seem to be drunk and said, "Ah Fu is drunk, why don't you live in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain today? "

Yuan Liuzhen thought that there was nothing in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain, and besides, he was a little unsatisfied after drinking the white wine just now, and he especially wanted to drink the red wine brewed by him and Tao Fu.When Uncle Man asked them to drink, he really wanted to go up the mountain to see the wine they brewed, so he said to Uncle Man, "It's okay, it's not dark yet, Fu and I are going to sleep on the mountain."

"Yes, let's go to the mountains and have wine." Tao Fu echoed from the side.

Uncle Man looked at the two of them with some worries, but he himself was a little dizzy now, as if he was drunk, and seeing that Yuan Liuzhen was not drunk at all, he said, "If you two are going to the mountain, you should go to the mountain as soon as possible. It’s just waiting for a while to rain, the mountain road is not easy to walk.”

"Okay, then Fu and I are leaving first. Tomorrow, remember to bring Xiaoman to Liyao Village for dinner." Yuan Liuzhen said this to Uncle Man before leaving with Tao Fu, and Uncle Man said "good" several times.

When going up the mountain, Yuan Liuzhen rubbed his aching forehead, and felt helpless when he heard Tao Fu, who was holding his arm, praised him all the time. He didn't expect Tao Fu to have such a cute side, and those clear eyes seemed to be full of It's all the same with him, he praised him over and over again, as if he couldn't praise him enough, and it was not at all the same as the calm and gentle look before.

The two walked like this for a while, and it started to rain, so Yuan Liuzhen had to take Tao Fu to walk quickly for a while, Tao Fu, who was tired of boasting, stopped talking, and was dragged up the mountain quietly by him.

Not long after, they walked into the hut, but both of them were wet.

After returning to the hut, Yuan Liuzhen pulled Tao Fu to sit beside the bed, scooped some water in, washed his face with water, and half woke up from the wine.

When he looked at Tao Fu, he found that Tao Fu no longer had the abnormal expression just now, and he seemed to have returned to his normal look, so he said, "Ah Fu, come here, wash your face, you can sober up."

After Tao Fu heard this, he came directly over, washed his face with water, looked at the increasing rain outside and said, "It may rain heavily tonight, and it's not safe to live in a thatched cottage. Let's go to the cave tonight." sleep."

Yuan Liuzhen had no objections, and went to sleep in the cave, so he could go and see the wine he and Tao Fu made.

The two didn't stay in the hut for a long time, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the heavy rain that was almost pouring made them dare not stay longer, and they came to the cave before it was completely dark.

After entering the cave, the clothes and robes of the two were completely soaked. Tao Fu found a torch to light the kerosene lamp, and found some dry firewood near the cave where it could shelter from the rain, and lit it at the entrance of the cave. He brought two wooden blocks to the fire and said, "Zhenzhen, come here to enjoy the fire, and the clothes will be dry in a while."

"Okay." Yuan Liuzhen walked to the fire and sat down, and saw Tao Fu put his coat and robes on the wooden sticks set up beside the fire, and then he started to find a rag by himself, soaked it in rainwater outside the cave and wrung it dry. He began to wipe the only bamboo bed in the cave with a rag. The bamboo bed was much narrower than the beds in the thatched cottage. After the bamboo bed was wiped clean, Tao Fu stopped what he was doing and came to sit beside Yuan Liuzhen to warm up.

Yuan Liuzhen soaked in the rain and roasted for a while, it was a little cold, thinking that drinking would make her warmer, and she also wanted to taste the taste of the brewed wine, so she said to Tao Fu: "Ah Fu, the wine we brewed is ready to drink in about a month now, and it will be drunk tomorrow." Go back to the courtyard and take a few more altars with you."

"Okay." Tao Fu smiled softly, he didn't look drunk at Uncle Man's place at all, "I'll get the wine."

After Tao Fu finished speaking, he picked up the kerosene lamp and walked towards the innermost part of the cave. Not long after, Tao Fu brought a jar of wine and handed it to Yuan Liuzhen.Yuan Liuzhen took the wine and found that it was the jar of wine he brewed at the beginning. He couldn't help laughing. He hadn't drunk the wine he brewed himself. He used to listen to others how to brew it.

After Tao Fu handed the wine jar to Yuan Liuzhen, he rummaged deep in the cave for a while, found two cups made of bamboo tubes, and a bamboo spoon made of bamboo tubes, washed them with rainwater outside the cave, and handed them to Yuan Liuzhen.

Yuan Liuzhen took the bamboo spoon and roasted it on the fire for a while. After making sure that there was no rain on it, he carefully removed the sealing mud on the jar with a wooden stick, opened the lid of the jar, lifted the white cloth, and smelled the strong and sour red wine smell inside. He burst out laughing instantly, and said to Tao Fu pleasantly: "I didn't expect it to happen, let's drink it."

Yuan Liuzhen put the bamboo spoon into the jar, and now there was no condition to filter the grape residue, so he had to put the grape residue aside, scooped up the clear purple wine with a spoon, and held it out in front of Tao Fu, Tao Fu naturally put the two Holding a bamboo cup in his hand, he poured the wine into the bamboo cup.

He spooned and spooned the wine from the jug until the two large bamboo cups were filled with wine.

Tao Fu sniffed the wine in the bamboo cup, handed another bamboo cup to Yuan Liuzhen and said, "It smells good, it's different from the wine at Uncle Man's house."

Yuan Liuzhen took the bamboo cup and said with a smile: "Of course it's different. The wine we drank at Uncle Man's house is called baijiu, and the wine we drink now is called red wine, red wine..."

Yuan Liuzhen couldn't help telling Tao Fu about the many benefits of red wine, and also said that red wine is not as easy to get drunk as white wine, and he said a lot.

Tao Fu was very interested, and instantly felt that the red wine in his hand was quite expensive.

After Yuan Liuzhen finished speaking, she touched Tao Fu's cup with a bamboo cup and said, "Taste the taste."

After he finished speaking, he took a sip with his mouth. The taste was indeed a bit sour and sweet, which may be due to the lack of sugar. It was not as sweet as the red wine sold, but it was also very delicious. After all, he brewed it himself. He took another big sip of the wine, and it tasted really good.
