Just like the fireworks display above the Star Lake, Taiyue City naturally has its own customs and traditions.
This wine tasting party is to gather the wines brought by celebrities and select the best wine this time. The person who gets the first place will get honors and rewards.
Of course, this kind of wine tasting is not about making good wine, but about bringing out your own collection. After all, the wine tasting only lasts for one day, so it is impossible for you to make a good wine on the spot?
Of course, he can be the judge of a wine tasting party. He is definitely an elite among the people in the country of wine, and cannot be compared to ordinary drunk people.
"What does the wine tasting have to do with this woman?" Bian Ruxuan was still angry, but less hoarse. Obviously she also wanted to hear Zhang He's explanation.
"I came here to borrow wine. Her family has good wine. Have you forgotten that the wine our Bian family presented at the wine tasting has missed the championship for three consecutive years?" Zhang He explained.
"Really? So what's going on with this courtyard house?" Bian Ruxuan was not a stupid woman and would not be deceived by Zhang He's two or three words.
"In order to get fine wine, I naturally have to give others what they need. Reciprocity is fair, isn't it?" Zhang He forced a smile.
Bian Ruxuan just stared at Zhang He, making Zhang He feel more and more uncomfortable. Finally, she wiped away her tears and said, "Okay, come back early." After saying that, Bian Ruxuan turned and left without even looking at Zhang He.
The courtyard.
Lin Huanran hid aside and sneered again and again. He knew that Bian Ruxuan did not believe Zhang He, but whether it was for the sake of the family's face or the few remaining feelings in her heart, she did not go too far.
After Bian Ruxuan left, Zhang He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you so afraid of her?" The woman next to him looked dissatisfied. It was obvious that Zhang He had also wasted a lot of sweet words on her.
Zhang He put his right hand around her slender waist and placed it on her plump buttocks, "Is that so? Are you jealous?"
The woman smiled sweetly and put her beautiful hand on Zhang He's chest, "When will your words be fulfilled?"
Zhang He smiled confidently, "Don't worry, when I reach the level of Six Pure Ones, this woman I've had enough of will be kicked away by me. At that time, I will marry you legitimately. Even the head of the Bian family cannot violate this."
Go against me."
"You are really capable." The woman smiled seductively.
"Haha, how are you going to reward me?" Zhang He picked up the woman and walked into the room.
Lin Huanran left quietly. This Zhang He was indeed very courageous. He dared to do such a thing as soon as Bian Ruxuan left. It seemed that his status in the Bian family was not low.
Thinking of Ruxuan's behavior at Tianrui Pavilion that day, Lin Huanran couldn't help but sigh that things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen to such a big family?
Following Bian Ruxuan to Bian's house, this place is not comparable to the courtyard just now. There are countless secret and open sentries everywhere. Moreover, there are many warriors who have returned from the Three Qing Dynasty.
After understanding from the Lei family and the Duan family, the elders of the eight major families should all have been transformed into one from the Six Pure Ones. It is not known whether there is a return of the Nine Pure Ones among them.
Lin Huanran was not afraid of Liu Qing Huan Yi, but Jiu Qing Gui Huan was a warrior of another level and had never been encountered before. Lin Huanran did not want to take risks and did not go deep into the Bian family.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard Bian Tieshan's words, "Ruxuan, we can only endure it for the time being. This bastard boy is in the spotlight in the Bian family. There is nothing we can do about it. The head of the family admires him very much. You can't lose a big deal for a small thing."
"Dad, are you just watching him messing around outside like this?" Bian Ruxuan was a little reluctant.
"This matter must not be spread. It is related to the reputation of the Bian family. Ruxuan, you are not young anymore. I hope you can think about it carefully." Although Bian Tieshan felt sorry for his daughter, he also cursed Zhang in his heart.
Crane is a white-eyed wolf.
But in this delicate situation, the Bian family cannot have any problems.
"I know, but when the Bian family succeeds, I will never let it go." Bian Ruxuan raised her head with a determined expression.
It was Zhang He who took advantage of the situation and entered the Bian family. Now that Zhang He is in power, he immediately does such a thing and keeps a mistress outside? If you really like it, you might as well discuss it carefully and take a concubine directly. Such sneakiness is the most contemptible.
Bian Ruxuan also knew the current situation of Bian's family, so she chose to be patient. Bian Tieshan nodded happily and left Bian Ruxuan's room.
Watching his father go away, Bian Ruxuan sighed secretly, with a look of resentment on his face, while Lin Huanran was expressionless. There was no gloating, no sad sympathy, just a kind of indifference.
However, Lin Huanran didn't want to miss the wine tasting party. Since your Bian family wants to be first? Then I won't let you get your wish.
I originally thought that the wine tasting would be held in an open place, but I didn't expect that it would be held in a restaurant like Piaoyan Yunke.
According to inquiries, there have been strict requirements since the very beginning of the wine tasting. In the past, as long as you had good wine, you could participate, and as long as you were recognized, you could get rewards.
But what about now? It's not impossible for ordinary people to participate, but they have to go through selection. Lin Huanran obviously missed the good opportunity. After learning the news, Lin Huanran had no choice but to wait outside Taiyue City.
Spotting a person, he immediately walked over and said, "Hello, brother."
"Hello?" This person was a little wary. After all, people who robbed people of wine had appeared before. He was an ordinary person, so of course he was a little scared.
Lin Huanran said, "Brother, I also wanted to participate in the wine tasting party, but I lost the opportunity because I missed the time. It is too long to wait for another year. I wonder if you can give me the opportunity?"
"Are you kidding me? I've been waiting for a year to give it to you? Why?" The man looked angry.
Lin Huanran didn't say any more nonsense, and directly took out a thousand taels of silver notes. The gold and silver treasures provided to him by the Zixia family and the Wang family, I believe he will not be able to use them all in Haoyang Kingdom.
"Humph, I am participating in this competition to fulfill my father's last wish. How can it be bought with money?" This person was even more disdainful.
"Ten thousand taels." Lin Huanran directly increased it by ten times. Such an amount is already an irresistible temptation for ordinary people.
"You?" The man's eyes widened. In his opinion, exchanging ten thousand taels for this opportunity was completely the behavior of a madman.
"How about it? If you want, I'll give it to you right away. I don't need the wine." The banknote between Lin Huanran's fingers was fluttering in the wind, making it impossible for him to divert his attention.
"Think about it, if you have money, you can give your father a cemetery, which is considered filial piety. It will be the same next year." Lin Huanran said.
"Okay, I'll give it to you this time because you're really anxious." This person seemed to have done something good, but Lin Huanran kept nodding, "That's that."
"I wish you success."
"Thank you for your kind words." Lin Huanran said with clasped fists. After watching this person leave, Lin Huanran shook his head and returned to Taiyue City.
After several twists and turns, Lin Huanran finally got this qualification and came to Piaoyanyunke. No medicinal wine was needed, just ordinary wine was enough to win the world. Lin Huanran took out the certificate and walked in.
There were probably hundreds of people inside, and everyone was chatting with each other. Lin Huanran observed that the Bian family was sitting in the middle like hosts, surrounded by some merchants or small families who were constantly showing their goodwill.
But Lin Huanran saw that the representatives of the Bian family were not the main figures at all, but Zhang He and Bian Ruxuan. The four guards behind them were also mediocre in strength. Obviously, they didn't think anyone would cause trouble here.
"This young master is very unfamiliar. I don't know where he can be better?" At this time, someone noticed Lin Huanran's extraordinary demeanor and came to ask tentatively.
"It just so happened that they knew there was a wine tasting party, and they would show off their unique wine." Lin Huanran didn't say it explicitly, but it became more and more unfathomable in their ears.
"I wonder what your surname is? You seem to be very confident." After a while, more and more people noticed Lin Huanran's demeanor, so they all gathered around.
"Boyou, please give me your advice." Lin Huanran was amused, so she decided to borrow Boyou's name.
"It turns out to be Mr. Boyou, whose name is as good as thunder."
"Yes, it's better to be famous than to meet him. He is really a handsome man among people."
Lin Huanran was amused by these people's flattery. Boyou is a remnant of the ancient world of Shangwu Continent. If you had really heard of it, I'm afraid you wouldn't have such a reaction.
Lin Huanran was naturally happy to see the result, and he clasped his fists and said he didn't dare. After a while, the situation here attracted the attention of other families. Even if the person standing next to Lin Huanran was not a noble person, his magnanimity was natural.
Attract attention.
Cold and indifferent, he stands out from the crowd in a white robe, and even his appearance is as brilliant as Xuan's.
"This young master, I am Zhang He of the Bian family. I wonder which family the young master is from?" Zhang He asked. Although he was polite, he seemed a bit arrogant. After all, the Bian family is one of the eight major families. Of course, only the remaining
There are seven major families.
"He's just a nobody. Mr. Zhang is too polite."
"It's up to you, sir. I'll look forward to your wine later." Zhang He didn't say much. With his status, he didn't need to be polite to a person of unknown origin.
After waiting for a while, the wine tasting finally began. The wines were presented according to their own number plates, and then the judges confirmed the value and ranking of the wines based on the aroma, color, taste, and texture of the wines.
Lin Huanran was ranked at the bottom, but he didn't care. Unless someone interfered with his wine, he would definitely deserve it.
The first ones to appear were some small families, and the Bian family's wine ranked seventh. This gave the Bian family some face, as the Bian family had been squeezed out of the top ten for several consecutive years.
Although it is not a huge honor, the Bian family tree is so popular that it has to work hard. The support of a family is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Finally it was Lin Huanran's turn, and he took out a small jar of wine and placed it on the table.
Originally, everyone was speculating based on Lin Huanran's demeanor, but now they saw that the wine jar was really shabby and dilapidated, and they were a little disappointed. It looked like nothing more than gold and jade.
As judges, they naturally don't care about appearances. They opened the mud seal and were immediately overwhelmed by the aroma of wine.
