"Dongsheng, what are you talking about? You are my brother and I am your sister. How could I find you annoying?"
Xu Huizhen patted Jia Dongsheng's chest lightly, then smiled and said, "You don't know how worried I was when you left for so long. You must come to my place more often in the future."
"Okay, I understand, Sister Huizhen."
Chen Xueru, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore. Why did she feel that if she let the two of them continue chatting, her adopted brother would be kidnapped?
"Huizhen, where's your little Jingli? Hurry up and bring her out to play with my son. Can't you see my little monkey is already eager to play?"
"Jingli is sleeping in there. I'll go over and wake her up."
Xu Huizhen looked at Hou Kui, and after she finished speaking, she immediately walked inside.
In addition to the tavern in front, the tavern also has a yard in the back with several houses that can be used for cooking and living.
"Lao Fan, hurry up and serve us some wine. How can you be so tactless?"
After Chen Xueru sat down, Jia Dongsheng looked at Fan Jinyou. He would strike back at this person whenever he could, without any hesitation. After all, this was someone who had once wanted to stop him.
"snort."
Fan Jinyou snorted coldly and thought to himself, "I am a scholar, I won't argue with you."
Then he obediently brought a pot of wine to Jia Dongsheng and placed it on the table.
"Hey, don't go. Bring us some more side dishes. How can we enjoy the wine without food?"
"Then you wait."
After Fan Jinyou finished speaking in a bad mood, he walked to the back. He felt that if he couldn't afford to offend someone, he could always hide away.
"You and Fan Jinyou really don't get along." Chen Xueru couldn't help but giggle when she saw Fan Jinyou's deflated look.
"People like this deserve to be punished."
Jia Dongsheng said something casually, and soon, Fan Jinyou brought peanuts and two small mixed vegetables and put them on the table. Not long after, Xu Huizhen came out with a delicate little girl, who was her daughter, Xu Jingli.
"Xiao Jingli, I'm here."
Before anyone else could greet him, Hou Kui did so first.
"Little monkey."
Ever since Jia Dongsheng called him out, this nickname has been given to Hou Kui. Adults and children alike like to call him that, which makes Hou Kui angry, but he has no way out and can only accept it helplessly.
"Jingli, let's go out and play?" Hou Kui ran to Xu Jingli's side, trying to hold her hand. Unfortunately, Xu Jingli dodged him and instead walked obediently to Jia Dongsheng, calling out, "Uncle."
"Hey, little Jingli is so good."
Xu Jingli is five years old this year. She looks like a pink doll and is very cute. She is even cuter than Xiaodanger. Maybe it is because Xiaodanger is still young and has not grown up yet. Otherwise, with Qin Huairu's appearance, she should not be less cute than Xiao Jingli.
After coaxing Xu Jingli for a few words, he let her go play with Hou Kui. If he delayed any longer, Hou Kui would probably look at him with eyes that would make him want to stab him.
There was no way, and no one knew when Hou Kui had the idea of marrying Xu Jingli as his bride when he grew up. Unfortunately, Xu Jingli always ignored him and would only look for him to play for a while when there was no one else to play with.
Watching the two children go out to play, Fan Jinyou didn't want to see Jia Dongsheng, so he made an excuse to go to the back to rest. Only Jia Dongsheng, Chen Xueru, and Xu Jingli were left in the tavern, drinking and chatting.
I have to say, the wine in the tavern is really good, with a mellow taste and rich aroma. It is pure sorghum wine.
After drinking a glass of wine, Jia Dongsheng filled it up again, then picked up the wine and smelled it. It tasted quite good, but the alcohol content was not high, only about 40 degrees.
Thinking of the tigers in the B&B, and the tiger bone wine and tiger penis wine he remembered, Jia Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "I could make some with it, but the alcohol content is a bit low!"
"What are you thinking about, Xiaodong?" Chen Xueru pushed Jia Dongsheng who was lost in thought.
"Um?"
After being pushed, Jia Dongsheng came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Sister Huizhen, I want to make some medicinal wine. I need some high-proof wine. Can you get it here?"
"What's the degree? Fifty degrees or sixty degrees?" Xu Huizhen asked.
"Seventy degrees."
In fact, if you want to make tiger bone wine and tiger penis wine, pure grain wine with an alcohol content of more than 55 degrees will do. However, if you want to fully bring out the efficacy of tiger bones and tiger penises, a higher alcohol content is required. According to Jia Dongsheng's estimation, 70 degrees is just right.
"So high?"
Xu Huizhen was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that 70-proof alcohol would be needed. She really didn't know if she could get it.
"I really don't have any. Next time I go to buy some wine, I'll ask for you. If it's over 50 or 60 degrees, I'm still confident. But I don't know about 70 degrees."
"It's okay, Sister Huizhen. Please ask for me. If there is any, you can also help me pull it back directly. Just pull a hundred pounds."
"One hundred pounds?"
Xu Huizhen was surprised: "You need so much?"
"Well, 70-proof liquor is used to make medicinal wine. When it's thoroughly soaked, some of it will evaporate, so you need to add a little more liquor."
"Okay, I'm going to get some wine in a couple of days. I'll ask for you then, and if there's any 70-proof wine, I'll get it back for you."
"Thank you, Sister Huizhen." Jia Dongsheng raised his glass to express his gratitude and drank it all in one gulp.
"Drink slowly."
Chen Xueru took out a handkerchief and wiped the corner of Jia Dongsheng's mouth. Jia Dongsheng was stunned. Isn't this a bit too much?
"Hey, why are you being so polite to your sister Huizhen?"
