Brewing Baijiu with rice was once very common in my hometown, but today it’s a extravagant wish to smell the rice-brewed wine fragrance. So sorry for stepping into urbanization at the price of losing so many homemades…

Sitting on the kang, fresh bread, and stew of roast pheasant and vegetables – it was great. Even the Baijui tasted good! You can’t beat home cooking.
