Chapter 284： Or the daughter can control the old father

Chapter 284 Still the daughter can control the old father

Wei Ruo reached out and undid the lid of the wine jar in Xiumei's arms.

As soon as it was uncovered, a strong smell of wine wafted out, instantly permeating the entire study room.

Wei Mingting, who had been drinking countless times, immediately smelled that it was good wine.

Wei Mingting was a little dumbfounded: "Ruo'er, you are going to die hard as a father. If this wine is left on weekdays, my father will definitely drink it to his heart's content, but now my father's injury has not recovered."

"Well, you can't drink alcohol before your injury heals." Wei Ruo agreed.

"Then why did you bring such fine wine?" Wei Mingting asked.

Wei Ruo explained unhurriedly: "If father is willing to take a good rest, his body will recover soon, and then he will be able to drink freely. If he is not willing to take a good rest, his body that can recover in two months will be delayed to three or five months." month, the day when father can drink will also be delayed."

Hearing this, Wei Mingting was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly: "Ruoer, your way of persuading my father not to work too hard is too..."

It's a little bit special.

Madam persuaded him to let him rest more earnestly. It would be better to switch to his daughter, and put a jar of wine directly in front of him, so that he could smell it too much to drink.

"I didn't advise my father, but just told him a fact."

Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo took out the lo mei wrapped in oil paper, and opened a bag of braised duck necks in front of Wei Mingting.

The tan duck neck is shiny with crystal oil, and the fragrance is equally attractive.

"I also brought some appetizers for my father, including braised duck neck and braised duck feet, and a pack of braised pig ears."

Wei Mingting didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he didn't let him drink the wine, and he had to bring a bunch of appetizers.

"Ruo'er, are you testing your willpower as a father?"

"Father's willpower has always been extraordinary. Even if the sword is pierced to the bone, he still can't make him afraid. How can mere wine and food shake him?" Wei Ruo said.

Wei Mingting was speechless.

Looking at Wei Ruo, there was no superfluous expression on her small face, neither tenderness nor concern.

Similarly, what she said was not earnest or persuasive, but Wei Mingting felt that his daughter cared about him.

Wei Mingting couldn't help laughing: "My father is busy here today, and I will go back to the dining hall in the backyard with you. How about you accompany my father to have dinner?"

Wei Mingting stayed in the study today and hasn't had lunch yet, and no one has reminded him since his wife wasn't there, and he is a master who forgets the time when he gets busy.

"Okay." Wei Ruo agreed.

Then Wei Mingting sent someone to tell the kitchen to prepare the dishes, and he and Wei Ruo walked back to the dining room in the backyard unhurriedly.

After sitting down, Wei Ruo placed all the lo mei brought on the table, and then asked Xiumei to listen to the winter melon tea from Songyuan, which was not finished after it was made last time.

Under Wei Mingting's gaze, Wei Ruo brewed a big bowl for Wei Mingting.

"What is this?" Wei Mingting asked.

"This drink is called winter melon tea. Although my father can't drink alcohol, he can drink some drinks to match these lo mei." Wei Ruo explained.

Eating food without drinking alcohol can also drink beverages.

"Okay." Wei Mingting tasted the wax gourd tea brewed by Wei Ruo with curiosity.

The taste is sweet and delicious. Although it is not comparable to wine, drinking it also has a special flavor.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Mingting tasted the stewed meat that Wei Ruo brought back. He had tasted the stewed pig ears before, and it was the first time for the stewed duck neck and duck feet.

The taste of duck products is different from that of pig ears, but the taste is also amazing to him.

Paired with fresh winter melon tea, Wei Mingting tasted it with relish.

By the time the servants brought out the lunch dishes prepared by the kitchen, Wei Mingting was already seven or eight percent full.

After lunch, Wei Ruo said to Wei Mingting: "I will keep the jar of wine for my father, and I will send it to my father after he fully recovers."

"That's a good deal, Ruo'ermo gave it to someone else." Wei Mingting laughed.

He has two sons, Wei Yichen and Wei Yilin, and an adopted daughter, Wei Qingwan, under his knees, but when he gets along with other children, he is more serious and majestic most of the time.

I don’t know why, but the eldest daughter who hasn’t been together for a long time makes him smile more, and the two get along more easily and happily.

"No, I promise you." Wei Ruo replied.

When Yun came back in the afternoon, she was a little surprised to find her husband recuperating obediently in the backyard.

Later, I heard from the servants that the eldest daughter specially persuaded him, and said that after the persuasion, the master not only ate his meal on time, but also stopped going to the front yard.

Yun asked about how to persuade him, but the servants didn't know.

Mr. Yun is still very happy. Her husband's health has always been a matter of concern to her, but she has been unable to persuade him. Now that the eldest daughter's persuasion is useful, it is naturally the best.

May 15th, rest day.

The government government has been promoting late rice seeds and sweet potatoes for a few days, and the work of purchasing fertilizer and compost is also in progress, but the cloud that hangs over Taizhou has not dissipated.

Anzhou College recommends that students go to the fields to observe the people's conditions during their breaks. Only when they understand the most important things at the moment can they know how to answer questions and how to be a court official in the future.

Wei Yichen and Xu Fengyuan, who were close friends on weekdays, took advantage of this holiday to inspect the fields, and Lu Yuhong was among them.

Several people talked about it along the way, talking about their views on the suffering of the people and the lack of food.

At ten o'clock at noon, Xu Fengyuan hosted and invited everyone to Zuixianju for lunch.

I asked for a private room, and a group of eight people just sat full.

Xu Fengyuan ordered a table of Zuixianju's signature dishes, and ordered a jug of good wine.

The shop waiter served a jug of wine for everyone, and Xu Fengyuan filled it up for everyone, but was quickly surprised by the color and aroma of the wine.

The wine has a rich aroma, but it is as clear as water, without any turbidity, and it is as clear as a spring.

This seems to be white wine.

The crowd asked Lu Yuhong who drank the most baijiu during the banquet: "Young master Lu, you have a lot of experience, do you think this wine is baijiu?"

Lu Yuhong only glanced lightly and said, "This color is undoubtedly white wine, but I don't know how it tastes."

It was really liquor.

Baijiu is rare, and there are very few distilleries that can brew pure baijiu. Even if there are, they are gathered in the capital area.

Taizhou government occasionally has baijiu, which is also brought from other places. There is no such brewery in the local area.

Now seeing such high-quality baijiu in this Zuixianju really surprised everyone.

With doubts and curiosity, everyone tasted it one after another.

Compared to the more common rice wine, baijiu has a strong and strong taste. People who try it for the first time may feel a little uncomfortable, but after tasting it carefully, they can feel the beauty of it.

"It's better to be famous than to meet each other. This is the first time I have drunk this baijiu. The taste is really different."

"This wine is a bit strong at the beginning, but the hot feeling goes down, warming the spleen and stomach all the way, flowing like a stream, stretching like a mountain range, it is really a good wine."

Everyone gave good comments one after another.
