Nalan Zhangqian spoke before Master Nalan could. “My dad was not feeling well and he has quit drinking for a few days now.”
Drinking would still harm one’s body. They prohibited Master Nalan from drinking for the sake of his health.
“Zhangqian.” Master Nalan looked at Nalan Zhangqian in annoyance. “Qing’er rarely gives me things. I can just accept it. You just don’t want me to feel better, don’t you?”
Nalan Zhangqian stopped short. “Dad, I did not mean that. I was just...”
“Then just shut up!”
Master Nalan was quite happy after realizing the change in Feng Ruqing. He did not care it was real or fake. He was contented as long as Feng Ruqing did not infuriate him.
Moreover, it was the first time Feng Ruqing gave him a present.
Feng Ruqing ignored Nalan Zhangqian and handed the wine jar to Master Nalan.
Master Nalan laughed out loud. He opened the wine jar. “Jing’er, go and take my wine glass, I want to take a sip of the wine that Qing’er has brought me.”
The fragrance of the wafted out of the wine jar when Master Nalan opened it. He was stunned as his eyes were momentarily filled with doubt.
“This wine...”
Why was the smell of the wine so pleasant? Moreover, he could feel spiritual qi in the wine.
“Qing’er, where did you get this wine?” Master Nalan was serious as he looked up at Feng Ruqing.
“A few days ago, I bought it for you from a street vendor by the roadside when I went for my morning run. I just thought that his wine smelled so good. Why? What’s wrong with the wine?”
Her eyes were so innocent that she seemed to not know the problem with the wine.
Master Nalan took a deep breath and seemed serious then. “This wine... is brewed from spirit herbs.”
Nalan Zhangqian was shocked as his face turned pale after hearing that. He could smell the special fragrance of the wine at first but the wine was too strong that it covered the presence of the spiritual qi. He could now feel the existence of spiritual qi in the wine after hearing what Master Nalan had said.
A wine brewed from spirit herbs. What a waste!
“Vendor. Vendor again!” Nalan Zhangqian was clearly annoyed. “Why can’t I meet this kind of street vendor?”
No one doubted Feng Ruqing. They knew exactly who she was. She would never be able to brew wine. Nalan Zhangqian believed so after what happened to Dai’er.
“What about the vendor?” Master Nalan looked at Nalan Zhangqian suspiciously.
Nalan Zhangqian was more annoyed than ever. “Dad, do you still remember the Divine-Spirit Fruit I gave you a few days ago? Dai’er bought it at a trading store. What do you think about this vendor? The vendor sold Divine-Spirit Fruits like they are regular fruits and now the vendor sells spirit wine like they are regular wine.”
But why... why couldn’t he meet this street vendor?
Nalan Dai’er blinked and moved closer to Feng Ruqing.
She did not understand. Why was her father and Master Nalan so shocked? Her father even ordered people to go and search for the hawker store. But, all these... were given to her by Feng Ruqing as snacks.
“Qing’er, did you really buy this wine from a street vendor?” Master Nalan looked at Feng Ruqing and asked her seriously.
Feng Ruqing nodded calmly. “Yes, I bought it for you.”
“Do you know the significance of this wine?” Master Nalan took a deep breath and said, “The value of this wine is more than Grade-3 spirit herbs.”
It was still considered spirit wine even if low-grade spirit herbs were used in brewing the jar of wine. How powerful was it to brew spirit wine from spirit herbs? It was indeed more valuable than Grade-3 spirit herbs.
