Chapter 279 Delicious Night Banquet·Celebration of Mountains and Seas
Guofeng Tavern.
The moment he pushed open the wooden door of the cellar, the warm yellow light wrapped in the sweet fragrance of persimmons came to his face - Yao Yao was tiptoeing to wipe the celadon wine jar, the lace of the pink double-breasted jacket hung around his waist, swaying a playful curve as he moved.
During the Chinese New Year, she dressed very happily. She knew that Li Xiang was coming to pick up the wine today, so she waited here early.
"Brother~" Yao Yao's screams were sweet and greasy, and most people couldn't call her so charming.
"How is the wine?" Li Xiang asked.
Yao Yao smiled proudly, and when she turned around, the silver butterfly hairpin flapped its wings and snapped its fingers. More than 20 wine jars shone lights in response. The little Yao Yao, who were as big as a thumb, poked her head out of the mouth of the jar and raised the white porcelain spoon to seek credit: "The fermentation rate of wine koji is 98.3%! The fusion of spiritual energy is 20% higher than the estimated!"
Li Xiang was shocked: "When did you get so many clones?"
Yao Yao smiled and said, "Didn't this be done by brother, you helped me?"
Li Xiang: "Be serious."
Yao Yao then said seriously: "Brother, you forgot. You gave me some advice before and asked me to eat more. You also gave me a lot of beef and venison. I am very nutritious, so the raw ones are no, and I have a little more separation."
"Can you be bigger?" Li Xiang asked.
Yao Yao smiled brilliantly and said, "Yes, brother, how old do you like?"
Li Xiang: “…”
Yao Yao said it well and used many professional terms when she changed the topic and asked about some details about brewing wine.
In order to make wine, she bought a lot of professional books and portable detection instruments, which made a lot of effort.
Li Xiang couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. Suddenly, he felt something moving in his trouser legs, so he bent down and grabbed a little Yao Yao.
"What are you doing?" Li Xiang was so amused and crying. Needless to say, this little Yao Yao was not honest and wanted to sneak into her pants.
"Oh, I'm so sorry for me." Li Xiang threw her to Yao Yao.
Yao Yao accepted this clone and said, "I don't care about my beauty at all."
"Let's see the bar." Li Xiang took a few steps and leaned over to check the dragon pattern urn in the center.
"Brother, try this--" Yao Yao took the opportunity to post it.
What she shared with Li Xiang was the "cocktail" she had just prepared, to be precise, mixed with persimmon wine and spiritual wine.
Li Xiang glanced at it and found that in the small transparent glass wine glass, the wine flowed in layers. The upper layer was transparent persimmon gold, and the lower layer was precipitated with the essence of jade-like elixir.
This look alone is very good, let alone the smell of wine.
He took it, raised his head and drank it all, and first exploded the bitter fragrance of plum blossoms in his throat, and then there was the fragrance of persimmons. In a blink of an eye, he was swept by the warm honey fragrance, and his spiritual power wandered through his meridians like a spring stream.
"Awesome, you really have the talent for brewing wine." Li Xiang sniffed several times, still feeling unsatisfied.
"Brother, if you like to drink, I'll help you make some more." Yao Yao was so excited that she went to work again.
About half an hour later, Li Xiang left the Guofeng Tavern with the spirit wine prepared with the eight major gourds.
...
On the morning of New Year's Eve, Li Xiang decorated the atmosphere at home.
He cleaned the ground in the front and back yards, and then hung many big red lanterns and small red lanterns.
There are single ones, six or eight in a string. Long strings, hanging on persimmon trees, wintersweet trees, peach trees, war drum pavilions, and under the eaves... In addition, there are some handwritten blessings and auspicious poems, full of atmosphere.
Li Xiang also used crystal meridians to arm his superpowers and condensed many small crystal jade jewelry, hanging them everywhere in the home, and around the necks of the little pets, which was very festive.
The courtyard is completely refreshed and full of brilliance.
Under a blooming winter plum tree in the corner of the west wall, a three-dimensional sculpture of "Grain of Grain" formed by old pit oil-green jade is placed, with built-in LED light strips and orange-red halos flowing slowly.
Oil-green jade is not worth it, it is good to use it to make such large sculptures. If you use glass-type Yang green, it would be a bit too ostentatious.
Then there are all kinds of busy work such as pasting Spring Festival couplets. Not only the main house, kitchen, war drum pavilion, utility room and greenhouse in the courtyard, but also the dog shed, chicken shed, duck house, the back door of the yard, the side moon cave door, etc., as well as the panda's bamboo house on the back mountain. Li Xiang all pasted Spring Festival couplets.
As for several stores in the scenic area, they will be on holiday during the Chinese New Year these days, but Zhao Xueqing, Yao Yao and Lei Xiaohui have arranged in advance to post Spring Festival couplets and hang red lanterns, so Li Xiang doesn’t need to worry too much. Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Xiang went to the Jiang family and invited Uncle Jiang to come to his house to make the New Year's Eve dinner together. Because there are so many people.
If he is ready to invite him, he will not be able to do it himself, and secondly, it may not be as good as Uncle and Aunt Jiang’s taste.
Anyway, it’s not an outsider, so it’s more fun to do it together.
Jiang Caier had already persuaded her parents, so after Li Xiang came, he exchanged a few greetings and the group set off.
The Jiang family is at the east end of the village and the Li Xiang family is at the west end of the village. The four of them walked from the east end of the village to the west end of the village, and they inevitably greeted many people. When it comes to going to Li Xiang’s house for dinner this year, everyone is envious.
Some people even joked that it was the share money that had been prepared long ago and wanted to drink Xiangye and Caier's wedding wine, which made Jiang Caier's face blush.
After all, she is still a little girl.
She is about to talk about marriage when she is in her third year of high school, and she is probably the only one in the school.
Li Xiang is thick-skinned. After all, he is the village chief. He has a warm invitation and must drink a few more glasses at that time. He will prepare wine to entertain everyone.
Jiang Jianguo, Aunt Jiang, Jiang Caier, Li Xiang, and Grandma Li Xiang, a total of five people, were busy working on the New Year's Eve dinner together.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Li Xiang took out more ingredients this time, with delicacies and various flavors, which made everyone dazzled. Many of them are not available in the county.
There are some things to sell in the provincial capital, but the size and freshness of the ingredients are far less than that of his here.
Jiang Caier has intellectual advantages and rich knowledge, and can be called a walking library. Therefore, she became the chief planner of the New Year's Eve dinner and was responsible for designing the dishes. Jiang Jianguo and Aunt Jiang took the spoon, Li Xiang washed vegetables and cut vegetables, Jiang Caier and grandma wandered around, wherever she needed.
These dishes designed by Jiang Caier borrowed from the recipes of the hotel, and the names were quite auspicious.
For example, there is a dish called "Deer Ming Chunxiao": the fried deer steak is accompanied by a hundred flowers of nectar, and it is concentrated on a green jade lotus leaf plate.
There is also "beef turns the world": Wagyu ribs with truffles.
There are many things like black truffles on the mountains near Li Xiang’s house. He is not too rare to sell this now, but he occasionally has time to use his ground vein perception to pick up a little.
Truffles are buried in the soil, which is difficult for ordinary people to find, but for Li Xiang, who is proficient in soil-type superpowers, they can easily obtain a lot of them just like "not wearing clothes". He was too lazy to dig if his quality was slightly worse.
There is also "Fish Jumping the Dragon Gate": Bluefin Tuna sashimi, piled into a pagoda-shaped place with green embellishments such as lettuce and broccoli around it.
"Whale waves thousands of miles": Cuttlefish sauce whale balls rise and fall in the clear soup like a voyage.
"Phoenix roams in the sycamore": The charcoal-grilled king crab legs are arranged in a shape of spreading their wings, and the crab shells are carved with hundreds of birds to pay homage to the phoenix.
"A perfect match": abalone sea cucumber soup.
There are 18 dishes, each of which is full of portions, so I won’t list them one by one.
Not only did people prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner, Li Xiang did not forget his cute pets.
For example, Erhuang has "Wangfu Bone": beef bones with meat wrapped in bread crumbs and fried into gold ingots.
The little fox is the "spiritual flesh frozen": the raspberry jelly is embedded in the heart of tender quail.
The five pandas are bamboo rice: Thai fragrant rice + rainbow corn + amber pine nuts.
The kittens are deep-sea cod porridge.
The little hedgehog also has a separate "hedgehog food plate": Cordyceps walnut crisps, arranged into an exquisite plum blossom array.
The big rooster with red crown and colorful feathers looked at the dozens of big centipedes in front of her. She was satisfied and quickly called the cute little hen to come and eat.
Li Xiang has excellent vein perception ability. When looking for black truffles, it is easy to dig a few nests of centipedes by the way.
The two little gooses are "Plate of Crazy Grain and Soulghum": they are made of corn, brown rice, and sorghum rice, mixed and steamed until soft and glutinous, piled on the shallow green bamboo plate to form a hilly shape, then chop the cabbage heart and young spinach leaves, spread it into "Ruyi Cloud Pattern", and two cinnabar-colored wolfberry on the top, which means "good luck".
As for other ordinary chickens and ducks, they are ordinary rice and vegetables. Well, some of them are on the table.
Because Lingjiu is too powerful and is not suitable for ordinary people, this reunion dinner was filled with Feitian Moutai.
