Chapter 273 The Brewery in the Deep Alley

After three consecutive days of rain, the sky finally cleared. Lan Xin pushed open the window and a wind with cold and earthy smell blew into the house. She shivered coldly for a moment and then calmed down. Seeing the sky outside with some morning light, she said happily: "Girl, I finally don't need to wet my shoes and trousers when I go out today."

Yao Si combed his hair and turned around, and smiled and said, "After this rain, this cold winter is about to pass. A rain has washed away the snow, and the weather will become warmer in the future."

She walked out the door, Lan Xin followed behind, and the two came to the kitchen, and Yao Si started to cut vegetables. Lan Xin was burning the fire obediently, and said helplessly: "Girl, Lan Xin can do all these things. Lan Xin gets up early every day, and when she gets up, she is idle, and she is idle even if she is free."

Lan Xin got up early two days ago to cook breakfast, and she could eat it when Yao Si got up, but Yao Si said she wouldn't let her cook. She couldn't resist, so she got up with Yao Si for one time every day. After getting up, the two of them came to cook again. She was responsible for the fire and Yao Si was responsible for cooking.

"I like cooking." Yao Si smiled.

Lan Xin shrugged helplessly: "But the dishes cooked by the girl are really delicious. Lan Xin had never tasted such a delicious taste in the Wu family before. She clearly put the same ingredients on it, but when the girl stir-fried it, it immediately changed."

"I have been helping my mother since I was a child, and I have learned it a long time ago. But what I cook is better, and I can only match half of my skills." Yao Si smiled.

The two girls were chatting one by one, a stack of vegetables, a bunch of steamed buns left from yesterday and a bowl of porridge, and breakfast was just like this.

After breakfast, Lan Xin said that she would insist on cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, so Yao Si followed her and went to the room to prepare things. After Lan Xin cleaned up the kitchen and entered the room, Yao Si had already collapsed a small cloth bag on her body, and her head was tied up on her head like a man, with a wooden hairpin on her body, and she was wearing a strong outfit, because she was taller than an ordinary woman, and because she was thin, she looked like a handsome young man.

Lan Xin is not surprised. The girl has always dressed up in this way when she went out these days. Although it was for convenience, she also understood one thing: girls are not ordinary people and cannot be treated by ordinary people, and they cannot be treated by ordinary women.

After everything was packed, the two left Jinbuju, headed east, walked out of Shamao Street, turned into Xiaoxiang Hutong, and walked around the alley of the alley for two quarters of an hour, and finally stopped in front of the yard where there was a "wine" hanging at the door of the family.

Although the yard looks very dilapidated, it is filled with a mellow and sweet wine-making smell. The place where Yao Si comes from is a wine-making workshop.

When Lan Xin came to her for the first time, she thought she had found the wrong place. She just asked someone to find out where there was a winemaking workshop near Shamao Street. She asked several people that there was the best winemaking workshop here. Since everyone said it was OK, it must be good, so she brought Yao Si.

It was just the first time I came here. I went around the alley for half an hour before I found the place. The door plaque was still broken and it didn't look any special. However, the aroma of wine was very intoxicating. If they hadn't asked about the smell of wine as soon as they entered the alley, they would not have been able to find it for more than half an hour.

This alley is quite strange. There are no people living in the alley. Just after the hour, there will be a large number of maids, servants, scholars, businessmen, etc., and all kinds of roles will come, blocking the door and being in a mess. Once you enter the yard, you will become very honest and orderly, and you will still line up to get wine.

These people came from all over the world to buy wine. Lan Xin knew that she had found the right place, but she was still puzzled. Since it was so popular, why not open a store on the street and why it was in such a remote and dilapidated place?

The two walked to the door, and Lan Xin took the lead and slapped the door and shouted: "Mr. Pei, we are here."

After a while, the door opened from the inside. As soon as it opened, a strong aroma of wine came to my face. Yao Si took a deep breath and sighed: "Mr. I brewed rice wine today."

The man called Mr. Pei was dressed in linen clothes and was dressed similar to that of the farmers working in the countryside fields. The man looked just in his early twenties. Although he was dressed in an ordinary manner, his face was very pretty and beautiful. When Lan Xin first met him, she was fascinated and forgot to come back to her senses. But when she saw the handsome boy carrying a big wooden barrel and walking freely in the workshop, she felt a little admiration, and she thought that no one should look good.

"Hello Mr. Pei-----" Yao Si smiled obediently and helped Pei Zifeng lift a bucket on the ground into the workshop. Lan Xin also quickly followed into the workshop.

It is called a workshop, but it is actually a large house. It must have been an in-house yard before, but it was later transformed into a large house. Inside the house is filled with various wine jars and large wooden barrels. In short, it is a very simple winemaking workshop.

But it is precisely because of this simplicity that the wine brewed here has attracted many people in Beijing. Many high-ranking officials and nobles even buy wine here. The wine brewed here has no name or is not sold in pots. Everyone brings the pots to make wine. Although it has no name, it is indeed more popular than many famous wines.

Smelling the aroma of the wine, Yao Sizang said bluntly: "My mother used to like making rice wine. I drank rice wine since I was a child. Later, when I grew up, during festivals, my father could let me drink some other wine."

She put down the wooden barrel and put it in front of a tightly sealed Dagang, sniffed, and felt her whole heart relaxed. At this time, she couldn't help but sigh that she had good luck, and it was a surprise to find Pei Zifeng.

When I was in Xiaxiang County, my family’s wine was brewed by Yan’s family. On the one hand, I saved money, and on the other hand, the wine brewed by Yan’s wine was also delicious, so my family never bought wine. Yao Si learned a lot from childhood. Osmanthus wine is her best at it. In addition, she can do rice wine, rice wine, wheat wine, and chrysanthemum wine. When she found Pei Zifeng, she also wanted to brew a few jars of unique wine here.

Although Pei Zifeng is young, his skill in brewing wine is the only one Yao Si has seen a good winemaker after Yan. The winemaking job is not something that can produce good taste with talent. Pei Zifeng, who is in his early twenties, must have put in a lot of hard work, so Yao Si admires him very much.

Pei Zifeng's personality and physical fitness looked a little incompatible with his handsome face. He didn't talk much, and he looked a little bit like he was thousands of miles away. He also had a weird temper. When Yao Si first came, because he was late, the outside was crowded with people, but the door was closed.

It was raining heavily at that time, and everyone was waiting for the next person to come out, but a servant came out, but he looked unwilling and cursing. It turned out that the servant wanted to buy two taels of wine, but the owner inside only sold one tael and did not do much money.

At that time, Yao Si even suspected that he was going to have a waste of time. However, he didn't expect that when he saw Pei Zifeng telling his request in the end, he only brought a glass of wine for Yao Si to drink, and asked her to comment.

Yao Si said a few simple words, Pei Zifeng nodded and said that she would come here before Chen Shi every day. In the next three days, Yao Si would come here before Chen Shi every day.
