Chen Ba immediately realized that the wine Wen Jin sent was definitely no ordinary wine.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath and smell the aroma of the wine... He suddenly became energetic, "This wine has been aged for many years, and the place where the wine is stored is extraordinary, and the wine is stored well!"
The wine has a mellow aroma and no bitter taste at all.
This wine is suitable for both men and women.
Chen Ba looked at the two small jars of wine that Wen Jin gave him... At first he thought that Queen Liang was too stingy, the two jars were so small!
Now he feels... Wen Jin is too generous! Such a good wine, if it were in Chen State, it would definitely be regarded as a national treasure. Except for grand festivals, it would never be taken out for drinking easily!
But what did Wen Jin just say?
She said that since she stayed for dinner, it was rare for everyone to get together again and open a jar to taste it.
That casual tone, as if this is just a jar of wine that is slightly better than ordinary wine!
What a waste of natural resources!
She is the owner of this wine, how could she not know the value of this wine?
No, no, no... She said that this wine and tea can be sent to the palace for the Queen Mother to try.
This shows that Wen Jin is fully aware of the wonderful effects of this wine!
Her casual tone... just means that she still has it! She has no shortage of this wine!
Chen Ba's eyes suddenly lit up, he was surprised and happy!
"There's a way!" He suddenly slapped his thigh and said.
People around were chatting animatedly.
Mrs. Chen, in particular, was closer to Wen Jin than to her own daughter.
What's more, Wen Jin was her savior. She felt more respectful and grateful after being intimate with him.
She held Wen Jin's hand warmly, asked her how her life had been over the years, and so on.
I heard my third son slapping his legs and howling.
She glanced over displeasedly, "Are you so startled, like a great Sima?"
Chen Ba doesn't care about my mother's scolding.
He looked at Wen Jin eagerly, "Mother, I understand! I know what to do!
"You are absolutely right. Chen Guo should take this opportunity to form a friendship with Daliang Yong! This is what is most beneficial to Chen Guo!"
Wen Jin smiled and nodded.
It was not in vain that she took out the space to produce and gave Chen Ba a meeting gift.
Chen Ba carefully poured out a pot of wine from the wine jar.
He poured it himself, not by the hands of others... He was afraid that the servants would be careless and every drop spilled would be a huge loss!
Only one pot was poured, and he immediately sealed the small jar of wine.
"Wait until August 15th to drink these." Chen Ba said with a serious face.
The others looked at him in surprise.
Third Master, haven't you been so stingy before?
Why should such a small jar of wine be kept until August 15th?
Not enough to drink today, okay?
Chen Ba picked up the other small altar and went back to the study in person to hide it.
After hiding the wine, tea, and the fruits from Wen Jin, he returned to the banquet with peace of mind.
The servants had already washed those fruits and were preparing to put them on the plate.
Chen Ba took it back as if he was "putting out a fire", "What a waste of natural resources! Do you know how wasteful it is?"
Servant: "???"
No peeling, no cutting...can you chew it raw with the skin on?
Why didn't I notice that Da Sima was so "frugal" before?
Chen Ba carefully picked out one of the fruits - yes, it was one!
With the skin on, it is placed on a white jade plate.
No one else had a share, so he gave the plate to his mother alone.
"Mother, try it. This is a 'specialty' brought by your mother from Daliang."
Chen Ba is shrewd. Through the wine and the tea, he has already understood that what Wen Jin sent is not ordinary!
Who would come all the way to bring some ordinary fruits?
The old lady saw that no one else was there, but she was in front of her, so she was embarrassed.
She chuckled, "Then I'll just rely on my old age to live up to my old age!"
She didn't give in. She peeled a grape and put it in her mouth.
"Huh?" The old lady's eyes widened instantly... Was she eating grapes?
It's sweet and refreshing, and the texture and taste are excellent. How come you feel energetic instantly?
She immediately lowered her head and wanted to take another one.
I ate that one too quickly! She didn't even taste it carefully to see if it was the magical effect brought by the grapes.
But if we look for it again... where can we find the second grape?
She looked at her good son suspiciously, "Just... one?"
Chen Ba whispered, "The remaining ones must be sent to the Queen Mother. This is the only one you can try!"
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she licked her lips. She immediately picked up the grape skins with silver chopsticks and ate them too.
"Give the fourth daughter-in-law a taste. It will definitely be good for her health." Mrs. Chen said.
The Chen family didn't understand at first, why was the third master so stingy?
After they tasted the wine and took a bite of the fruit... they realized that the third master was good enough to them!
The whole family looked even more different when they looked at Wen Jin...
No matter what Lord Chen Guoguo planned, his family must maintain a close relationship with this empress!
Chen Ba's youngest son, who was only two years old, didn't know what the adults were thinking.
He just paid special attention to the female doll in the fourth aunt's arms.
That girl doll is so pretty.
Whatever he said, he would sit next to his fourth aunt, right next to the girl.
Wen Jin and his party had finished their meal and were about to leave.
The child was crying so hard...
"When you grow up and go to Liang Kingdom to play, Yue'er will definitely treat you well as a landlord!" Wen Jin said to the child with a smile.
The child didn't know whether he understood or not. He bit the tip of his finger, held a few tears in his eyes, sniffed, and watched the girl and her group leave.
"I'm going to the palace now!"
As soon as Chen Ba saw Wen Jin off, he immediately returned to the study and took out the wine and the two small jars of catechu leaves.
He looked at the two small jars of catechu leaves and felt extremely sad...
"Obviously it was given to me... but in the end, I just passed it?"
He wanted very much to keep a jar, pick it up, put it down, put it down and pick it up again...
After struggling for a long time, he gritted his teeth and put it into the gift box.
Chen Ba packed up the gifts Wen Jin gave him, strode into the carriage and headed to the palace.
He was afraid that if he walked slower, he would be reluctant to give these things to the Queen Mother.
Chen Ba did not tell the emperor.
He directly asked to see the Queen Mother.
"This is some medicinal wine that my family tried their best to find. When the Queen Mother has nothing to do, she can take a sip to relieve her headaches and lack of energy." Chen Ba said, opening the wine jar.
The Queen Mother smiled disdainfully, "If the medicinal wine is useful, there are so many doctors in the hospital..."
Before he finished speaking, the aroma of wine overflowed.
She moved her nose, "Huh? Pour a cup quickly, Aijia can try it."
Chen Ba followed his instructions and poured a small cup carefully.
The Queen Mother picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
She pursed her lips and savored it for a moment.
Suddenly her eyes lit up and she looked at Chen Ba in surprise, "Where is Chen Sima's hometown? Where did the family find this medicinal wine? Is there any more?"
"This medicinal wine is effective! Only a small jar is... too little, right?"
Just now she disliked the medicinal wine, but now she dislikes the medicinal wine being too little!
