The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty - Chapter 64

Bao Zheng left Kaifeng Mansion. Even if he left a message, the people in the mansion couldn’t help but relax a little. Even Yunyan returned to work day after day. He ordered Mao and had something to do, but he had nothing to go to and stay at home.

This is also because his family has moved back now, it is close, and it is only a few steps away, even if there is something to do, there is no time for temporary notice.

However, Yun Yanhui just suspended his post in Tianqingguan. He has no new plans recently, and Bao Zheng is not there, so no one has asked him to work. It is all about the cafeteria asking some questions.

Because they moved again, Zheng Ling and Zhao Yunchu would come to play with him from time to time. This was the case for Zhao Yunchu this day, and they came to Kaifeng Mansion to find Yun Yan back.

Zhao Yunchu stood outside and asked people to see if Yun Yanhui was there, but he didn’t go in because he was warned by Gongsun Ce after he had been here a few times.

He was in the clan, so he shouldn’t make friends with foreign ministers. Although he came to find Yunyan back, outsiders saw that he had entered Kaifeng Mansion, so he could easily be involved in the play by the censors.

So now Zhao Yunchu came to look for people, and they were all calling them out.

Yun Yan was sitting in a shady place and watching the prisoners water the grapes. This is a fine grape variety he specially selected. He has transplanted a lot of them. It can be used for everyone to enjoy the cool and relax under the grape racks. Eat.

Yun Yanhui held a miscellaneous book to read, and looked up at the prisoners from time to time, then ridiculed a few words, resolutely not to make them feel better.

At this time, I heard that Zhao Yunchu was looking for it outside. Yun Yan looked back to see that it was almost noon, so he put the book, informed his colleagues, and went out.

When Zhao Yunchu saw Yun Yan back, he greeted him and said with a smile, “Brother Yan, I heard that there has been a restaurant in Zhounan recently. The wine and food are very good, so I want to eat with you.”

“Then you wait for me to tell my mother.” Yun Yan was okay with other things, except that he was particularly interested in food. It was strange. It was not so serious in modern times before. He thought it might be the ones who just wore on. Years are greedy.

Yun Yan ran back and said hello to Zheng Ping. After not having dinner at home at noon, he went to the foot shop he said with Zhao Yunchu.

For a long time before Yun Yan returned to his hometown, he thought that the difference between the foot shop and the main store is that the main store is larger and has a star, while the foot store is a roadside fly restaurant. Seventy-two main stores in Tokyo may be seventy-two luxury hotels.

Later, he discovered that this was not the case at all. The size of the foot shop is not necessarily smaller than that of the main store. The difference between the two is that only the main store has the right to make wine, and it is a licensed liquor owner who can buy koji wine from the country, while the foot store can only sell wine from the main store.

In ancient times, the production and sales of liquor were monopolized by the state, which was called “queuing liquor.” Que is the meaning of a single-plank bridge. Selling wine is like crossing a single-plank bridge. There is only one way.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, due to the different regions, the ququ system was different in different regions. There were also ququ, namely ququ, and Tokyo belonged to the district of ququ.

The full name of this monopoly method is the prohibition of negotiation, which prohibits private operations and can only be carried out by the government.

In addition to wine, salt and tea are also available.

Due to the people’s love of wine, the income brought by wine to the country is second only to the two land taxes in summer and autumn, and the income from salt is ranked second. As for the tea revenue, let alone, it is several times less.

The newly opened foot shop that Zhao Yunchu brought Yunyan back is a relatively large-scale and three-story building with “Jinbo” written on the wine flag at the door, which is another name for wine.

Every liquor store likes to advertise with similar words or even ancient poems on the liquor flag, indicating that there is liquor.

Dr. Chajiu greeted the two of them. Zhao Yunchu ordered a few dishes and said, “He is famous for serving drinks here. We all ordered drinks and drinks. Would you like some more bars?”

Yun Yanhui basically didn’t drink, Zhao Yunchu knew. In the same way, Yun Yanhui also knew that Zhao Yunchu would only drink at the banquet during the Chinese New Year.

However, since it was a drink to go with, it was impossible to avoid wine, so I ordered a few pots of rice wine and lamb wine to warm people up.

Rice wine is a very common and very old wine. Women and children know that this lamb wine is a bit different. It belongs to the characteristics of the Song Dynasty. As the name suggests, it is made from mutton.

It is said that the fat lamb is cut into pieces and boiled, and the soup is stirred with rice and koji, and it is brewed for ten days with the woody aroma. After it is brewed, the taste is sweet and smooth.

Yun Yan was drunk as soon as he heard of this brewing method, and had no appetite to taste, so he had never drunk lamb wine.

When the wine was warm enough to be on the table, Zhao Yunchu poured some rice wine for Yun Yanhui, and then drank while eating vegetables. The caterpillar, soft lamb, etc. made by this foot shop are extremely authentic, and some meatloaf to cushion the belly.

Yellow bird bream is a kind of bream dish, which is made by marinating the slaughtered bream with wine tank, pepper, onion **** juice, orange peel, etc. Dried, you can cook, dry steaming is best.

The cardinalfish in this foot shop is very tasty, fragrant and delicious, and is excellent for drinking.

As for the soft lamb, it is the simmered lamb. Song people really love lamb.

Although he basically doesn’t drink alcohol, the alcohol content at this time is really not high. However, at ten or twenty degrees, Yun Yanhui, who has passed the test of various modern high-level alcohol counts, drinking yellow wine is like drinking beverages.

He just doesn’t like to drink on weekdays. After all, he is no better than before when he is a kid, and he needs to socialize at the wine table.

Yun Yan returned with a mouthful and it was a big bowl. Zhao Yunchu quickly persuaded him when he saw it, “Brother Yan, you don’t usually eat alcohol. You can’t do this. You will get drunk.”

Yun Yan replied: “I think it’s okay, no way.”

Zhao Yunchu blushed, “In case you get drunk…”

Yun Yan replied: “??”

Yun Yan rolled his eyes back, and didn’t want to ask Zhao Yunchu why he blushed inexplicably.

As a cup of rice wine was eaten, Yun Yan’s face remained unchanged – at most, his cheeks were a little red because of the hot eating of the soft lamb, other than that, his expression was calm and his eyes were clear.

Zhao Yunchu’s eyes were a little confused. Because Yun Yan kept drinking, he couldn’t help drinking with a cup. After a few rounds, he exceeded his usual drinking capacity. At this time, he began to hold Yun Yanhui’s waist. Let go.

Yun Yan replied, telling me to be careful, let’s see who got drunk and became a dog first. But why is the amount of alcohol so low? It wouldn’t be a pretense, Yun Yan replied with an elbow and thumped him on the back with disbelief, and warned: “Don’t lend me wine to pretend to be crazy–“

Zhao Yunchu hummed and slid to the ground, resting his head on Yunyan’s thigh, “Aniang…”

Yun Yan called back to Dr. Jiu Qingqing, “Bring me a basin of water and pour him.”

Dr. Wine was taken aback, “Guest, your companion is just drunk, and the account has already passed. Why do you want to pour him?”

“Drunk or drunk, he only drank two pots.” Yun Yan realized that Zhao Yunchu was still rubbing his face against his stomach, and he was even more impatient.

The wine doctor was immediately unhappy, “Guest, the wine in our shop came from Fanlou. It’s famously intoxicating. What is “cai” and drank two pots!”

Yun Yan replied: “…”

Well, the wine seller is not happy…

But what he said, is it true that Zhao Yunchu is not drinking well?

“Okay, then, then you help me to help him up, and I’m leaving.” Yun Yan looked back at the pot of rice wine left, then looked up and poured the wine down, his eyes were clear and his face didn’t change. “Look. What am i doing?”

Dr. Liquor was frightened by the amount of his drink, and he was speechless, “This, this…good…”

Oops, after eating so many pots of wine, you still have a clear mind and your complexion remains unchanged. Could it be that the shop has encountered the legendary wine fairy?

Dr. Jiu help Yun Yanhui in a daze to support Zhao Yunchu, but no one can break Zhao Yunchu’s hand from Yunyanhui’s waist. In the end, Yunyanhui can only carry a waist under the side of everyone. The pendant goes out.

…

“Uuuuu…” Zhao Yunchu started crying in the middle of the journey.

Yun Yan replied: “??”

A tall and handsome young man cried in pain while holding the other one’s waist. At first glance, there was a story. Passersby looked sideways and their pace slowed down. Seeing that if Zhao Yunchu cried more fiercely, he would start to watch.

Yun Yanhui felt very embarrassed and he was not so aggressive, so she asked patiently, “Little Chu, what’s wrong with you?”

Zhao Yunchu cried and chirped: “Uncomfortable…”

Yun Yan replied: “…”

Yun Yan glanced around and motioned to everyone: I see it, Ya is just drunk and uncomfortable.

“It’s okay, you get up first, let’s go home first, okay?” Yun Yan coaxed him nicely.

Zhao Yunchu climbed up Yun Yanhui’s waist and hung it on his shoulder.

“… Hmm.” Yun Yan snorted back. Zhao Yunchu was more than half his head taller than him, and his shoulders were wider. He looked a size bigger than him, and his legs were not strong, so he half-dragd and half-walked. As a result, Yun Yan felt that he was carrying a bear.

Be strong.

Yun Yan gritted his teeth back and grabbed Zhao Yunchu’s stretched arm, half carrying him home. Originally, he wanted to send people to the palace, but now it seems that he might have died before sending them to the palace, so he simply took them back to his home.

As soon as he reached the door, Yun Yan sat down with the courtyard wall and Zhao Yunchu was also put on the ground, “Shuangyi, is Shuangyi at home!”

Shuang Yi heard the sound and saw Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu slumped on the ground. Both of them were flushed. Zhao Yunchu was even more unconscious, so he walked over and asked, “Brother, how can I be so drunk?” .”

“I’m not drunk, I am carrying him hot!” Yun Yan replied very helplessly.

Shuang Yi took a closer look. Sure enough, although both Yan Ge’er and Zhao Yunchu’s faces were red, Yan Ge’er’s eyes were very clear.

“How to drink like this…” Shuang Yi muttered, reached out his hand and grabbed Zhao Yunchu. Seeing that Yan Geer wanted to help the wall, he said, “Don’t get up, I let him come again.”

Shuang Yi took Zhao Yunchu in, put Yunyan Hui on the bed, and asked A-niang to cook sober soup, and then went out and picked Yunyan Hui up.

Yun Yan looked back and saw that Zhao Yunchu was okay, but when he was picked up like luggage, he was dissatisfied, “Can’t you carry it?”

It must be inappropriate for the princess to hold her. The picture was unreadable, but she was still within his acceptance range.

“If you are carrying it, your stomach feels uncomfortable with your shoulders against your stomach.” Shuang Yi still took the person into the room very much for his own sake.

Zheng Ping saw someone, came up to smell it, and confirmed that Yun Yanhui was not drunk, but he had drunk a lot, “How can I eat so much?”

“It’s fun, the wine is not too strong.” Yun Yan said with a smile, “Similar to Tianshui’er.”

Zheng Ping said in an unpleasant manner, “What sweet water, when your mother has never had any wine?”

“Aniang, don’t be angry,” Yun Yan recalled the very low-grade rice wine, and gave Zheng Ping a little bit. “I turned around and secretly gave Aniang some wine to beautify her face.”

Although the country is arguing about wine, he secretly brews a little bit of his own, no one knows, anyway, wine does not require koji.

“You, what about eating and drinking, first look at the drunk inside,” Zheng Ping poked his forehead. “No one is watching, so don’t let him stumble.”
