Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence

On the other side, in a carriage not far away, Qin Yuehua lowered a corner of the curtain, and the master and servant saw the whole farce.

"Miss, that lecher looks ugly and fat, but he has a good character," the maid Tingyu laughed in surprise.

"You can't believe all the rumors. You've been in the mansion for many years, don't you know how terrible rumors are?" Qin Yuehua looked at the innocent-looking girl and shook her head.

"And look at yourself, how can you say others are fat?" As she said that, she couldn't help but pinch Tingyu's round face.

"Miss," Tingyu shouted angrily.

Qin Yuehua smiled and said no more, telling the driver to continue riding forward.

She originally came to the east of the city with her maid Tingyu, hoping to find some high-quality tonics and medicinal herbs.

I accidentally heard the owner of the drug store say that Jinling Restaurant is selling a kind of wine soaked in pine needles today. It is called Pine Needle Wine. It is said that drinking it can prolong life and is especially suitable for the elderly.

Moreover, this wine is very rare. Although there is an ancient recipe, the wine brewed by other families is either bitter or spicy and difficult to drink.

Now, after brewing for a long time, Jinling Tower only has this small jar, so it is even more precious.

Although Qin Yuehua had not systematically studied medicine, she had been fascinated by it since childhood. She had studied medical books on her own for many years and had a basic understanding of medical principles. Pine needles are bitter and warm in nature, and enter the heart and spleen meridians. They have the effects of dispelling wind and improving eyesight, promoting blood circulation and calming the mind, and detoxifying and relieving itching.

So, upon hearing this, she ordered the driver to turn around and head for the Jinling Restaurant. Her grandfather had been busy with state affairs for years, working tirelessly and steadily, his health declining. She was determined to get this jar of wine today.

The maid Tingyu got off the carriage first, and then a delicate white hand reached out from the curtain, and a young girl in a white dress with a stand-up collar got off the carriage gracefully with the help of the maid Tingyu.

The girl is tall and has a well-proportioned figure. She wears an exquisitely crafted gold brushed butterfly agate waist chain around her waist, which makes her waist look even more slender. She moves with graceful steps and has an outstanding temperament. Every step she takes shows the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.

This scene happened to be seen by Song Xuanzhi and his group. It was not until the girl and the maid entered the Jinling Restaurant and disappeared from sight that they came to their senses.

Han Qin felt his heart burning with excitement as he watched, and felt an unbearable itching inside as if ants were gnawing at him. Based on his many years of experience, the young lady's figure must be stunning.

Song Xuanzhi was also attracted by the girl's noble demeanor. Isn't this the noble lady from a wealthy family that he has always wanted to marry?

Needless to say, Lin Lantian standing by was drooling to the ground.

Su Yu was indeed astonished, but he was admiring the girl's low-key yet luxurious waist chain, her elegant gait, and her dignified and graceful every move. Although he couldn't see her face, Su Yu inexplicably felt a liking for this girl.

After several people entered the restaurant, they saw the girl in white talking to the shopkeeper, and vaguely heard that they wanted to buy pine needle wine.

"There is pine needle wine here?" Song Xuanzhi showed a look of surprise. His brother-in-law always loved drinking, and his family had a collection of countless fine wines. Some were given to him by others through flattery, and some were found by him from all over the world.

Only this pine needle wine has a good reputation, but no one has ever tasted it.

It is said that a fisherman accidentally got a jar of this wine, took a sip every day, and lived to the age of 120. In an era when the average life expectancy did not exceed 60, this was truly fascinating.

Lin Lantian asked curiously, "Brother Song, have you heard of this wine?"

Han Qin also waited expectantly for Song Xuanzhi to answer his questions.

Song Xuanzhi looked at the two people's curious eyes, as if they were ignorant, and explained: "It is said that a fisherman got a jar of this wine by chance. He took a sip every day and lived to the age of 120. That's why this wine is also called longevity wine."

Song Xuanzhi looked at Su Yu proudly again. He thought he would see Su Yu's same expression of "so that's it", but he saw that Su Yu's expression was indifferent and there was no ripple at all.

I was sure that Su Yu, this idiot, must be pretending to know everything.

After listening to Song Xuanzhi's popular science, Han Qin was so excited that he almost jumped up. He immediately ran towards the shopkeeper.

As he ran, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Boss! Boss! Come here quickly!" He was afraid that the boss couldn't hear him, and his voice made the whole inn buzz.

The shopkeeper was startled and thought something big had happened. He quickly walked out from behind the counter and looked at Han Qin nervously.

Han Qin pointed at the pine needle wine and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, give me ten or eight jars of pine needle wine!" His eyes were full of desire and expectation, as if this wine was his lifeblood.

Meanwhile, Lin Lantian was lost in thought. He wondered if he could get this fine wine, would he consider giving a few jars to the Master?

In this way, even if he fails to pass the imperial examination, he may be able to stay in the college as an assistant teacher.

After all, compared to going home and doing ordinary farm work, this choice was obviously much easier. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.

Just thinking about it, he excitedly shouted: "I, I want twenty jars too."

Tingyu, the maid beside Qin Yuehua, was unhappy. She shouted: "This is what our girl asked to buy first."

Qin Yuehua didn't look angry at all. She thought that this wine couldn't be that easy to come by, let alone such a precious wine that could prolong life.

The other spectators all laughed. These people were too ignorant. Pine needle wine was not an ordinary wine. You could not just buy ten or eight jars of it.

Everyone laughed and talked about it.

Someone joked: "Boss, they all want more than 20 jars, how about we each have 100 jars?"

Another one who was just watching the fun said: "Boss, you're losing face by letting all these people in."

Song Xuanzhi at the back was so upset that he wanted to cover his face and pretend that he didn't know them. What a bunch of ignorant guys, they would never say such words even if they thought about it.

Everybody was arguing, and the shopkeeper pretended to be embarrassed, but he was actually secretly happy in his heart. He thought the bigger the commotion, the better, so that the restaurant's name would be more famous.

The shopkeeper stretched out his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet, and the crowd immediately quieted down.

The shopkeeper stood in the middle of the hall and bowed deeply to everyone around him at an almost right angle. His face was filled with sincerity and respect.

Then, he straightened up, swept his eyes across the room, and spoke in a loud and clear voice, "First of all, I would like to sincerely thank all the distinguished guests for coming and supporting us! Today, we at Jinlinglou are fortunate to have received a jar of precious pine needle wine, but unfortunately, this is the only one.

Our host took into consideration that if the jar of wine was sold to any one family, the other guests might be dissatisfied or disappointed.

Therefore, we decided to adopt a special way to deal with this problem…” The shopkeeper changed the subject, which aroused the curiosity of everyone present. They pricked up their ears, looking forward to the next development.

"What should we do then?" someone asked impatiently, "Should we let everyone take a sip?"

"Yes! Yes!" others also echoed.

The shopkeeper smiled so hard that his eight big teeth were exposed, and his eyes were narrowed into slits.

He said, "Please be patient, my host has decided to invite friends to participate in a literary gathering. Whoever can write the most outstanding poem will own this jar of pine needle wine.

Not only that, if this gentleman wins the first prize, all expenses incurred in our store today will be paid for by our store."

When everyone heard this, there was an uproar. Some were students who were ready and eager to try, while others were big men who were miserable because they didn't know how to read and write.

The shopkeeper looked at the crowd's excited reactions with a satisfied smile on his face. He cleared his throat and continued loudly, "Today, our restaurant has invited Mr. Bei Mo to come here for the evaluation. Students, please perform well!"

When they heard the name Mr. Bei Mo, the discussion among the crowd became louder.

"Mr. Beimo? He is the founder of Beimo Academy!" someone exclaimed.

Another person continued, "Yes, Beimo Academy is an institution that countless students all over the world aspire to be. It is an unparalleled honor to be recognized by Mr. Beimo!"

The few Confucian scholars who had been somewhat indifferent at first now had red eyes. They secretly thought that if they could win the favor of Mr. Bei Mo in this poetry gathering, wouldn't it be equivalent to getting an invitation to Bei Mo Academy? This was definitely a rare opportunity for them.

"I want to participate, I want to participate too!" Students signed up one after another, and they were ready to show their talents in this poetry meeting.
