Chapter 138 The Lu Family's First Taste of Maotai

Gu Xingzhao was standing nearby, with a notebook in his hand, ready to write down the feedback from the tasting.

At this time, Lu Youtang took two cups of drink from his grandfather. Seeing that they were white, he smelled them curiously and found that they tasted fragrant and sweet. He thought that they must be delicious!

She immediately handed one of the cups to Ming Yuan, "Sister Yuan'er, try it!"

Ming Yuan took it, thanked him, and then handed it to Shun Yu, "Your Highness, please try it."

Shunyu subconsciously looked at Lu Youtang not far away. The little girl looked lonely and was obviously unhappy that her feelings were being transferred to someone else.

Seeing Shunyu looking at him, Lu Youtang lowered his head and drank the cup in his hand.

Shunyu looked at Ming Yuan. Earlier today, Ming Yuan went to meet the left envoy of the Golden Scale Guard. Since he was going to stay, she was arranged to be by his side.

Maybe she wanted to take care of herself, or maybe she was in the Golden Scale Guard and didn't understand these things.

After thinking for a moment, she pushed the cup back and said, "Ming Yuan, this is given to you by Miss Lu, drink it yourself."

Ming Yuan said respectfully, "Your Highness, drink first."

If it were in the capital city in the past, with Cai He around, these things would never have happened to the people around him. Even if they did, it would not be Shunyu's turn to take care of it. But Cai He is no longer here, Ming Yuan is his own person now, and he has to travel with the Lu family and rely on Old Lu. He really doesn't want the people around him to have any grudges with the Lu family.

Shunyu immediately put on the airs of a master, "You should put me first, but this is Miss Lu's love for you. If she doesn't like it, you should explain it to her. You should never pass her love to others."

"I respect Mr. Lu, and I only keep people who are as loyal to me around me. Mr. Lu's granddaughter likes you, so she treats you well. You shouldn't let her down like this, do you understand?"

Ming Yuan was slightly stunned. Although she still didn't quite understand, she knew what her master meant. If she displeased Miss Lu again, she would be driven away.

She nodded slowly, "I will go and apologize to Miss Lu right away."

Shunyu knew that she might still not understand what she said, but she didn't expect her to understand it all of a sudden. As long as she didn't let the little girl down again.

Ming Yuan took the drink and went to find Lu Youtang.

Gu Xingzhao witnessed this scene. Although Shunyu did not say anything harsh, the aura she displayed was truly like a princess. The timid look in his memory seemed like a long time ago, but now she is able to convince people around her. It's just that she is still young and a little immature when she puts on airs.

She smiled and said to Lu Qing, "The little princess has changed a lot. It seems that you and Liu Xiangbai have taught her well."

In front of the ancestors, Lu Qing was always humble, "Thank you for your praise, ancestor."

At this time, Lu Youtang was already drinking her second cup. It was still sweet and had a milky aroma. She remembered that her father had given her a similar sweet drink before, but it had a smell of mutton, which she didn't like very much. But this one didn't have any fishy smell at all. It was really delicious!

"Dad, this is better than the one you brought back before. Try it!"

Lu Yang had poured a glass of PIO and was about to taste it when he saw his daughter holding a glass of white sweet drink and raising her arm to him. The old father was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

"My dear girl, Daddy knows that you still have Daddy in your heart!"

I will definitely not forget my father just because I have friends.

He immediately put down the cup of PIO in his hand, took the sweet drink from his daughter's hand, took a sip, and it was very sweet. He had drunk this type of sweet drink before, but it was far inferior to the one in his hand. He didn't know how to get rid of the mutton smell in it.

Lu Yang patted his daughter's head, his fatherly heart overflowing, not caring about the fine wine or the fairy brew, "My dear daughter, wait here, I will go and get you some other sweet drinks."

Gu Xingzhao narrowed his eyes and put a tick on "Forget the baby".

As soon as Lu Yang squeezed into the tent, Ming Yuan came over with the drink in her hand and apologized to Lu Youtang, "I shouldn't have given what you gave me to the princess. It's my fault for disappointing you. I won't do it again."

Lu Youtang was young and easy to coax. After Ming Yuan's assurance, she was immediately happy and held Ming Yuan's hand, "Let's go over there and play!"

Ming Yuan's body was a little stiff, obviously not used to being so close to others, but she didn't shake off Lu Youtang's hand. She nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Lu Yang grabbed a large bottle of Wangzai and came out, panting, but saw that his good daughter had already run away with someone else, the two of them holding hands, which hurt the eyes of this old father.

Forget it, it's a good thing it's a girl. If it was a boy, it would be terrible.

He pulled a tribesman over and asked him to deliver the bottle of drink to the two girls. He turned around to pick up the glass of PIO he had just put down, but found that the cup was already empty. He didn't know who had poured it out.

He immediately squeezed into the tent and wanted to pour another glass, but the bottles had already been divided up and emptied.

Lu Yang: "." I feel depressed.

At this time, Lu Qing was tasting Maotai. Gu Xingzhao didn't dare let him drink too much, after all, the alcohol content was so high. He stared at him and only allowed him to drink one sip, or at most two sips.

Lu Zhou next to him also poured a small cup.

The two of them stared at the glass. The wine flowing in it was clear and transparent. It didn't look like wine at all, but rather like water.

The wine they drank on a daily basis, even the finest wine from the palace, was slightly yellowish and was definitely not as clear as the glass in their hands.

Is this really wine?

The father and son immediately put their noses close to it and sniffed it, and found that the aroma of this wine was rich and mellow, and the taste was intoxicating just by smelling it.

He raised the glass and took a sip. The wine tasted mellow at first, but instantly burst into a strong and complex flavor, layer upon layer, with a hint of sweetness in the sweetness, as if it could bring people into the depths of the distant Guizhou Mountains.

The aroma of the wine is like a song of flowing mountain water, penetrating into the heart. It is as if you are strolling in a deep garden with flower-filled paths, or like a boat swaying on the sparkling lake.

He closed his eyes, intoxicated by the aftertaste of the wine, it seemed that even his breathing was tainted with alcohol.

Lu Qing's face flushed with excitement, his hands trembling slightly. There was such a pure and good wine in the world. He felt that the wine he had drunk in the past few decades was in vain!

Such a fine wine should be passed down through the ages!

Gu Xingzhao was a little surprised to see his reaction, but then he remembered that the wine in ancient times was different from that in modern times.

In the dynasty that Lu Qing lived in, the winemaking technology was not good enough. The wine was turbid and the alcohol content was very low, only four or five degrees at most. When rich people drank it, they would often heat it up, so that the taste would be sweeter and the alcohol content would be higher.

The bottle of Maotai in his hand is the best among modern liquors, so it is no wonder that Lu Qing and the others reacted like this.

She smiled and ticked the column for Mao Tai in the notebook.

At this time, the women were also trying wine and drinks.

When Xu was young, he liked fruit-flavored wine, but there were too few of them. Either there were too few that tasted good, or they were hard to swallow. Now, when he smelled the sweet wine, he couldn't even walk.

She picked up the cup and took a sip. The aroma of wine and the sweetness of fruit were intertwined, so inseparable. It

was completely different from the sour and bitter fruit drinks she had drunk before!
