Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty
Chapter 25: The Wine of Pregnancy
After the servants had put the food and wine on the table, Zhang Shoufeng filled three bowls himself. After a while, the old butler Jiang Hua arrived with a jar of wine in his hand.
"You and your son are very lucky. I have been collecting this jar of wine for fifteen years. The two old marquises have been thinking about it for a long time and asked me to protect it." Jiang Hua introduced with a smile.
.
When Zhang Jiebin heard this, he said curiously: "Grandpa Jiang, you haven't collected just this one jar of wine in the past fifteen years, have you? Is there more hidden in the cellar? I can't help but think that the Marquis will never forget only one jar of wine."
"Hahahaha, I have heard Shoufeng say that Zhang Xiaolang is smart, and it is true! Yes, I select twenty jars of fine wines and store them in the cellar every year, and the past fifteen years are no exception. However, the total number of jars that have been stored in the cellar for more than ten years is only thirteen jars.
It has been stored in the cellar for fifteen years, and only three jars are left. The two old princes secretly drank dozens of jars over the years, and they are very distressed."
Jiang Hua said, full of memories, he picked up the wine bowl on the table, smelled it, and put it back on the table without drinking. He said to the servant waiting on the side: "Go and get some more bowls.
Then tell the kitchen to boil some hot water and make a pot of tea."
After the servant left, Jiang Huacai pointed to the wine on the table and said: "This wine is not old enough and the taste is not pure enough. It is better to taste my wine first. It will definitely make your father and son unforgettable forever."
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiebin quickly poured the three bowls of wine back into the wine jar and prepared to pour the wine.
"Don't be anxious, don't rush for the moment." Jiang Hua waved his hand and said seriously: "This wine bowl has been contaminated with the smell of vulgar wine, how can it hold my fine wine again? Wait for the servant to get the wine bowl. Zhang Xiaolang
, you need to remember that for any delicious wine, you need to be patient and wait. You have been waiting for fifteen years, why are you in a hurry?"
When Zhang Jiebin heard this, he couldn't bear it and immediately put it away. He put down the wine bowl, bowed his head and said: "Jiebin has learned a lesson. I haven't thanked Grandpa Jiang for saving his life before. Jiebin thanks him again."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I've heard it too. Even if I don't help, Xiaolang will be fine. It's a blessing in disguise!" Jiang Hua waved his hand and said.
"What's the matter, Mr. Jiang? During this period, my father and son have been indebted to you for so much kindness. It's really unforgettable." Zhang Shoufeng also stood up and saluted.
"I have the impression that you Shanyin people are all bohemian and informal, but that's not what you are!" Jiang Hua stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Oh? Mr. Jiang has also been to Jiangnan?" Zhang Shoufeng asked.
Jiang Hua shook his head and said: "I have been in the Hou Mansion all my life and have never left the capital."
"Is it possible that Grandpa Jiang is familiar with the senior Shanyin who lives in Beijing?" Zhang Jiebin had a guess in his mind and asked.
"Yes, twenty years ago, I had dealings with many of you Shanyin people." Jiang Hua nodded and said.
Zhang Jiebin became more interested and said with a smile: "Junior, let's make a bold guess. Grandpa Jiang, let's see if my guess is right?"
"Oh? You might as well guess, young man. If you can guess the right person, I will give you a jar of ten-year cellar wine." Jiang Hua also became interested and said with a smile.
Zhang Jiebin felt very happy when he heard from Jiang Hua that the wine he had cellared for ten years had attracted the attention of the noble marquis. He had long wanted to drink it as a pleasure. Now he would be able to have a jar to himself, just in time to taste it with his master and his brothers.
"What if I can guess the two people correctly?" Zhang Jiebin continued to ask.
"Then I'll give you two altars. Hey, don't worry about it anymore. I only have ten altars left. You can't gamble, you can't gamble." Jiang Hua agreed. Seeing that Zhang Jiebin wanted to continue, he waved his hand quickly.
Zhang Jiebin said: "Grandpa Jiang won't let me speak, so how can I guess?"
Jiang Hua laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "I'm obsessed with it, I'm obsessed with it."
"There is a man, Yu Wen, who is known as the most talented man in the Ming Dynasty. He is unparalleled in poetry, wine, calligraphy and painting. Yu Wu, he can kill the enemy when mounted, strategize in the tent when dismounted, and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away. Shanyin Xu Wei Xu Wen Chang, Grandpa Jiang
Can we get to know him?"
Zhang Jiebin said slowly, but Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Xiao Lang is smart, and I have dealt with Xu Wenchang before."
"There is a man who is erudite and knowledgeable, especially good at divination. I heard that he once wore a commoner's body and traveled with ministers. He studied Shanyin Zhou Shu and Zhou Jizhi. Does Grandpa Jiang know him?" Zhang Jiebin continued, thinking of Master Zhou's decades of wasted time.
The capital, being underestimated by the world, feels a pain in my heart.
"Shanyin Wangjiaping, I guess Grandpa Jiang doesn't know him, right?"
"That's enough, that's enough, there's no need to say anything more. Today I know that what Shoufeng said is true, and Xiaolang will become a great person in the future. Fortunately, I didn't continue to gamble, otherwise all the money I've accumulated over the past ten years will be wiped out." Jiang
Hua Zao stood up in shock and waved his hand quickly. He never expected that Zhang Jiebin would be able to say it accurately.
Zhang Jiebin has always loved to join in the fun and listen to stories. In the past few years, under the guidance of Zhou Shuxue, he has developed the habit and understanding of being eclectic, learning first and learning later.
Knowing all the influential figures, it is easy to filter out those who have been in Beijing and have a bold personality.
While everyone was chatting, the servant had already brought back the wine bowl, hot water and tea.
He put the wine bowls in place, poured the tea in, and stood aside without disturbing them.
"Come, come, let's drink a full bowl and finish our relationship with Shanyin." Jiang Hua personally filled the wine for the three of them, picked up the wine bowl and said.
"Shou Feng respects Mr. Jiang!"
"The guest greets Grandpa Chiang!"
"We respect Shanyin!" Jiang Hua said.
After everyone finished drinking, Jiang Hua continued: "When I was young, whenever I read the "Preface to the Lanting Collection", I longed for the Lanting Collection in Shanyin. Over the years, even though I haven't been here yet, my mind has traveled countless times. I can also be considered a
Having recognized the talents of Shanyin, young and old, I will have no regrets in this life!"
"All the virtuous people have arrived, and the young and old have gathered together. A Lanting gathering will make Shanyin famous all over the world, and also allow us to get to know each other. Jing Lanting gathering!" Zhang Shoufeng also said with emotion, and finally proposed.
"Gathering at Jinglanting!"
"Gathering at Jinglanting!"
After drinking another bowl, Jiang Hua asked, "How do you like this wine?"
"I've been drinking half my life in vain. I really don't know what kind of wine can satisfy my craving for food in the future." Zhang Shoufeng said intoxicatedly and full of aftertaste.
"This is not easy. If you dig a few cellars now and store dozens of jars every year, and drink them again in ten years, won't there be an endless supply of fine wines?" Jiang Hua didn't care and said casually.
"Mr. Jiang, I am not as restrained as you. Even the old Marquis can stop me, but I can't stop my mouth. I'm afraid that if I don't hide it for two years, I will be ruined." Zhang Shoufeng said with a bitter smile.
"Any delicious food is worth waiting for. A good wine will become more fragrant with time." Jiang Huayi said pointedly.
Zhang Jiebin nodded, thinking about having someone open the cellar of wine when he returned, and then drink it out after twenty or thirty years.
Zhang Shoufeng hesitated and made some guesses.
