This ginseng has been soaked in wine for several years. Li Zhe's father used to take a few sips of it when nothing happened, but then he stopped drinking it. It stands to reason that ginseng is normal only after it has been soaked. How could it sprout new ginseng again? Does sprouting new leaves mean ginseng is still alive? What the hell!
In the past, Li Zhe had seen some news about ginseng sprouting and blooming after being soaked in wine. He always thought it was ridiculous. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a strange thing now!
I originally wanted to test whether a white porcelain bottle could purify wine, but I didn't expect this unexpected result.
"I watered the roses with its blooming water last night, and the roses mutated. Now that the ginseng has been revived, it doesn't seem unusual."
After holding his chin and thinking for a long time, Li Zhe stopped making a fuss. The white porcelain bottle shocked him so much that he was almost numb.
At this time, the cell phone rang suddenly. Li Zhe took it out and found that it was Fatty Qian, his buddy in the same dormitory at the university.
"Hey, Li Zhe, what are you doing? Are you still at home?" The other party's loud voice made Li Zhe involuntarily move his ears away.
"What else can I do? I can farm at home. I can't work leisurely in a state-owned enterprise like you." Li Zhe had a black line on his forehead.
Qian Dong laughed awkwardly: "Haha, haha..."
"Why did you suddenly remember to call me? Is something okay?"
"Something's wrong." Fatty Qian responded quickly, "Isn't it a weekend off today? I'm bored and wanted to play with you."
Li Zhe said contemptuously: "You are not thinking about my pheasants and rabbits again. There are not many of them left. Recently, my father has not gone to the mountains to put them in cages."
This damn fat man, every time he came here in the past, there would be a lot less game at home, and he would still walk around when he couldn't eat it. He was like no one else.
I looked at the time and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock. The fat man was coming and should be there at noon.
"Come on, it's just in time for dinner."
"Oh, okay, let's leave now, haha!"
Fatty Qian was overjoyed and hung up the phone after saying this. This made Li Zhe confused. Is there anyone else coming too?
Li Zhe took out a few pheasants and rabbits from the iron cages in the yard. After working for more than an hour, Li Zhe prepared a few dishes. Mountain people pay attention to the authenticity of wild game, and they don't have much requirement for craftsmanship. .
Returning to the house again, Li Zhe noticed with some numbness that just for a while, the ginseng in the wine jar changed again.
The new shoots sprouted from it grew into tender green leaves, and even produced a few small red ginseng fruits!
The ginseng is still white and fat, but it is not as bloated as before, nor is it as shriveled and wrinkled as wild ginseng, and its body seems to be bigger.
This change made Li Zhe very happy. He raised the wine jar to the sun in the yard to study it, and let the ginseng inside bask in the sun.
When he swept up a dead asparagus tree nearby, he thought, "Soaked in wine, there's no way it's better to plant it in the soil."
Then, he ran to the kitchen and took a pair of chopsticks, and took out the white porcelain bottle and ginseng from the wine jar.
Li Zhe had no experience in growing ginseng, so he directly pulled out the dead asparagus in the flowerpot, and then planted the ginseng in it like a flower.
As soon as he stood up and clapped his hands, there was a roar of accelerator in the door. Li Zhe muttered that Fatty Qian had arrived and walked out to greet him.
He didn't realize that Dahuang, who was tied to the iron chain and was extremely sad, seemed to smell something in the air. His dog eyes suddenly turned green, staring at the wine can next to the flower pot...
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw a modified off-road vehicle parked not far away, with several figures in the vehicle.
Fatty Qian was the first to jump out of the car, laughing and giving him a bear hug: "Haha, long time no see, I miss you so much."
Li Zhe rolled his eyes and was about to reply, "I miss you sister," when he saw a girl wearing a white suspender belt and a denim skirt coming out of an off-road vehicle. His face suddenly turned dark: "What the hell are you doing? Why is she here?" ”
The fat man also looked a little embarrassed and scratched his head: "I don't know either. I originally planned to come with the squad leader, but who knew the squad leader called them here too."
After the girl got out of the car, she looked at her surroundings. With a faint mocking look on her face, Li Zhe became more and more angry and glared at Qian Dong: "I'll settle the score with you later."
This girl's name is Du Yan. She was Li Zhe's ex-girlfriend in college. Later, she found an opportunity to kick Li Zhe off and get together with the rich second generation Meng Qi.
Meng Qi naturally followed, jumped out of the car, swung the car keys as if showing off, and looked around with a arrogant expression: "Oh, I really envy the pastoral life in the mountains. It's so nice and quiet. I can't see anyone for ten miles, except for trees and birds. It's not like the city at night, which is bustling with lights and entertainment. If I hadn't had to inherit my father's company that was going to be listed, it wouldn't be a bad idea to come here to live in seclusion..."
"Isn't rural life just farming? It's so boring. I still prefer to go shopping in places like Paris and Tokyo!"
Du Yan stepped forward and took Meng Qi's arm, speaking with contempt.
Meng Qi smiled strangely: "Don't say that. Look, Li Zhe's complexion is getting healthier and healthier, and it's all thanks to farming, haha!"
Your mother sells batches!
Li Zhe cursed loudly in his heart. This guy is really pretending to be cool all the time. He even left the magic city and went home to farm, and he even came to his door to taunt him!
Fatty Qian was also extremely embarrassed, so he shouted to Zhu Shan, who had been silent in the car: "President Zhu, what are you waiting for? Why don't you come down and meet your old classmates! You and Li Zhe are not the same person in college." Club partner?"
Zhu Shan rolled her eyes, swung her backpack on her shoulders, jumped out of the car, and glanced at Li Zhe with some resentment: "What kind of partner? I didn't even leave a mobile phone number when I left school. I don't dare to climb up." ."
After speaking, he snorted coldly, making Li Zhe's scalp numb.
However, it has only been a few months since we last met. Zhu Shan is already much prettier than when she was in school. She has short brown hair, shoulder length, white shirt, plaid skirt, and patent leather shoes. The combination is exquisite and eye-catching, and her figure looks graceful...
He cast a murderous look at the fat man. This damn guy always caused trouble for him. Even this little girl was here. He probably wouldn't have a good time today.
"Hey, what does this smell like? Is it wine? Why does it smell so good?"
A strong aroma of wine wafted out from the yard. Fatty Qian smelled it first and immediately started shouting.
When it comes to wine, Meng Qi also gets excited. His family is engaged in the wine business. Although it is a small company, the wine industry is a big market. Any small workshop can make a good fortune. He has been influenced by it since he was a child. I am very confident in my wine tasting ability.
He twitched his nose slightly, then his eyes lit up and he nodded: "What a good wine. Li Zhe, you are so generous, you are willing to bring such a good wine to us!"
He closed his eyes and sniffed intoxicatedly, and said with great certainty: "This is a very old Moutai collection, a stronger one. This thing is not cheap, you can't buy it for more than a thousand yuan..."
Seeing the expert-like assurance on his face, Li Zhe was speechless for a while.
If I hadn't known that this was a farm-brewed bulk wine in my own wine can, and it cost a few dollars a pound, I would have almost believed this pretentious guy.
"Oh, Li Zhe, you told me before that how much fun it is in the mountains, but I don't think it's that good..."
Du Yan wanted to taunt Li Zhe, but Zhu Shan said coldly: "Okay, stop arguing, I'm starving! Li Zhe, what delicious things have you made!"
"Yes, yes, hurry up and show it to Mr. Qian!"
When he heard about eating, Qian Dong's eyes started to light up and he drooled, "The wild duck and hare that I ate last time were all there, as well as the matsutake mushroom soup, which can only be found in high-end hotels! However, The most delicious thing is the mountain mouse, peeled and roasted, it tastes even better!"
"Hmm~" Du Yan turned pale when she heard this and almost vomited, "It's so disgusting, rats are eaten in the countryside!"
In fact, the mountain rat mentioned by the fat man is a kind of rat that lives in the deep mountains and wild mountains. Because its belly is pure white fur, it is also called a white-bellied rat.
It is very different from the house mouse and vole. It lives in the mountains all year round, far away from human habitations. It relies on wild grass seeds, potato roots, small insects, and other food. It is relatively clean, so it is easily accepted by people. Become a delicious dish.
Nowadays, fewer and fewer wild mountain rat resources are being hunted, and breeding is not easy. Therefore, the price is getting higher and higher, and it is almost catching up with the bamboo rat.
However, Li Zhe was too lazy to explain to the woman who wanted to show off her superiority at this moment.
After entering the door, the aroma of wine became stronger and filled the entire courtyard.
Li Zhe felt strange and subconsciously looked towards the place where the wine can was placed: "..."
It turns out that at this moment, the big yellow dog is dragging his chain, sticking his tongue into the wine can, and drinking the wine!
Black lines appeared on Li Zhe's forehead. You can't learn anything from a dog, but he actually learned to drink!
Meng Qi was still bragging, "Haha, this wine is definitely a fine wine. I didn't expect to find such good wine in the countryside. Li Zhe, you took a lot of trouble to welcome us. Wait for next time, I will I’ll also give you two bottles of premium wine from my company! Liquor, foreign wine, it doesn’t matter..."
Du Yan hugged Meng Qi's arm and acted coquettishly, "Oh, you can't drink too much later, you have to drive. Last time you drove drunk and ran a red light. Fortunately, my uncle and the police chief are good friends..."
Fatty Qian also noticed something was wrong. He pointed at the big yellow dog as if he had seen a ghost. The others followed his gaze and saw a big yellow dog drinking something. There was a strong aroma of wine after every lick. spread.
Meng Qi, who was bragging, stopped suddenly, opened his mouth wide, and could not say a word.
Before Du Yan realized it, she asked Meng Qi strangely: "What's so good about a native dog? It's far worse than the black-backed dog you raised. This dog is so ugly."
Realizing that the opportunity to show off had come, Li Zhe did not miss it and waved his hand casually: "Why are you standing there? Let's go. My dog has this problem. He likes to drink Moutai and won't eat without drinking a can before meals. Ignore it, let’s go eat!”
"..."
Meng Qi felt his face was burning. Did he smell it wrong? A native dog actually drinks premium Moutai? Isn't this a rural area? Even rich people don't raise dogs like this.
