Chapter 216 Tender Heart and Jade Wine
Chapter 216 Tender Heart and Jade Wine
"Elder Shi, you may not know this, but I used to really enjoy eating meat. Steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, steamed deer tail, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose, braised pork, braised duck, soy sauce chicken, cured meat, preserved eggs, small sausages, dried meat..."
"Stop talking, tell me about the rest first." Elder Shi interrupted Wu You in time. Where are these recipes from? They sound pretty good. Is he just showing off?
"Uh, I haven't tried most of these before, and I've only tried a few, but because I love to eat, I've become quite plump."
Wu You: Bear paws and deer tails? I wouldn't dare eat those, and I don't have the money for them either. (*^@^*)
Li Lianhua, Fang Duobing, and Di Feisheng: You've said so much, I thought you'd tried them all.
Nanfeng: I can't believe these masters have only eaten a little bit. What kind of impoverished life did she live before? I should make her more delicious food in the future.
"Later, when I was in school, I was often ostracized and ridiculed by my classmates. I didn't have a single close friend, and even the older brother next door hated me to the extreme."
"Wu You, I didn't realize you had such a painful past. Tell me, how old were you back then?"
Fang Duobing: Although I know Wu You is fooling people, I still feel that the little girl in her story is quite heartbreaking.
Li Lianhua: Where did this neighbor brother come from? He has no taste at all.
"I was probably around 10 years old. From that time on, I never dared to eat meat, and I could only eat until I was about 50% full."
"Although I've lost weight now, I don't dare to eat meat anymore, for fear that I'll one day go back to the memory of being ridiculed and teased."
"Youyou." Li Lianhua looked at Wu You with concern.
Meeting Li Lianhua's worried gaze, Wu You winked playfully at him.
So, now that you have this story you made up, it's like no one will bother eating meat anymore.
Seeing Wu You's reaction, Li Lianhua felt relieved. It seemed this really wasn't Wu You's experience.
"Since that's the case, I won't try to persuade you any further. Why don't you try our village's Rouchang Yujiu wine, brewed with cold spring water?"
Shi Chang opened the stopper of a wine pot, and instantly, a fragrant and strong aroma of wine wafted out from the mouth of the bottle, which smelled very pleasant.
Elder Shi poured the wine from the wine pot into several bowls on the table. As the bowls were filled, the entire room was filled with the aroma of wine.
"Why aren't you young heroes eating? Is it because the food your family prepared isn't to your liking?"
Elder Shi looked at the people at the table. He couldn't all of them fast and not eat.
"Thank you for your kindness, Elder Shi. Please don't worry about us. To be honest, they are also fasting like me. They are fasting friends that I specially found together. We are really not destined to enjoy this fine wine and food."
Li Lianhua refused Elder Shi's invitation again, since everyone who practiced fasting should do it together.
"Oh, I see."
"Yes, it is indeed a bit of a pity."
Although Li Lianhua said it was a pity, there was not a trace of regret in her eyes.
"Elder Shi, is the 'Gentle Jade Brew' you just mentioned the legendary wine that can greatly increase the internal strength of martial artists after drinking it?"
"That's right. More than ten years ago, someone who accidentally came into the village discovered that this wine could enhance one's martial arts skills, so it attracted many people who came here because of its reputation."
Elder Shi recounted the events of that year in detail.
"But when they learned that this tender and delicious wine was brewed from the village's cold spring, they began to seize the cold spring and cut down fruit trees to make the wine."
