The origin of osmanthus and osmanthus wine
It is impossible to prove when wine originated.
But according to legend, it seems to be earlier than the written history.
In Greek mythology, there is Dionysus, the god of wine; in China mythology, there is WU GANG brewing osmanthus wine in Yuegong; and it is said that Yu Xia made contributions to water control in the 2nd/kloc-0th century BC, and the people offered him "purport wine" (sweet wine).
According to the unearthed cultural relics, there are wine vessels in the ruins of brewing workshops in Shang Dynasty (BC16 ~1century): Zun, Zuo, Jue, Hu, Yi, Jin Dynasty (1 15 ~ 60).
This shows that the Jin Dynasty (Southern Song Dynasty) has begun to use distillation to make liquor (high-alcohol liquor).
According to the literature, the Historical Records of the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-25 AD) recorded the situation of brewing wine with grapes in the western regions.
It can be inferred that people began to brew sweet wine (low-alcohol wine) in prehistoric times, and distilled liquor (high-alcohol wine) should be brewed around the Jin Dynasty (Southern Song Dynasty).

Osmanthus fragrans can be used to brew osmanthus wine.
People are particularly interested in osmanthus wine. They often drink osmanthus wine when toasting, and poets often chant osmanthus wine.

Legend has it that in ancient times, at the foot of Liangying Mountain, there lived a widow who sold mountain wine. She is generous and kind, and her wine is mellow and delicious. People respected her and called her Brewmaster.
One winter, it was freezing.
Early in the morning, Miss Xianjiu just opened the door and suddenly saw a scrawny man lying outside, obviously a beggar.
Mrs Brewmaster touched the man's nose and mouth, and there was still some breathing, so she took him home, filled him with hot soup first, and fed him half a glass of wine. The man woke up slowly and said excitedly, "madam, thank you for saving his life."
I am a paralytic. If I go out, I will starve to death. Please be kind and take me in for a few more days. "Fairy wine sister-in-law, I'm sorry. As the saying goes," There are not many widows ".If a man lives at home like this, others will gossip.
But think again, you can't watch him freeze to death and starve to death! Finally agreed to let him stay for a while.
As expected, the gossip about Miss Guan Yuxian's wine soon spread, everyone alienated her, and fewer and fewer people came to the hotel to buy wine.
But miss Xianjiu endured the pain and took care of the man wholeheartedly.
Later people didn't come to buy wine, and she couldn't keep it up. The man left without saying goodbye.
Mrs. Xianjiu was uneasy, looking around, and met a white-haired old man on the hillside, carrying a load of dry wood and walking hard.
Mrs. Xianjiu was trying to help when the old man suddenly fell down and the dry wood was scattered all over the floor. The old man kept his mouth shut for two days, his lips trembled, and he faintly shouted, "Water, water, ..." What about the water on the barren hills and slopes? Fairy wine lady bit her middle finger, and suddenly, blood flowed. She put her finger on the old man's mouth and he suddenly disappeared.
A breeze blew, and a yellow cloth bag was flying in the sky. There were many small yellow paper bags in it, and there was a yellow note that said, "The Moon Palace gave laurel seeds as a reward for good people."
Gao Fu Gui Shu Bi, life is full of flowers and trees.
Pick flowers to brew osmanthus wine, and send it to mom and dad first.
WU GANG is helpful, but treacherous.
Mrs. Xianjiu realized that this paralytic and the old man carrying firewood were all changed by Wu Gang.
As soon as the news spread, people from far and near came to see Suo Guizi.
Well-intentioned people planted cinnamon seeds, and soon they grew osmanthus trees, which were full of sweetness and infinite brilliance.
People with ulterior motives, the cassia seeds planted just don't take root and sprout. He feels embarrassed and washes his heart for goodness.
Everyone is very grateful to miss fairy wine. It was her kindness that moved WU GANG Daxian, who managed osmanthus trees in the Moon Palace, and brought osmanthus wine to the world. Since then, osmanthus and osmanthus wine have emerged in the world.

Fairy wine lady touched his nose and mouth, and there was still some breath, so she carried him home.
First he was given a bowl of hot soup, and then he drank half a bowl of wine. The beggar gradually woke up and thanked her at once. "Thank you for saving my life. Look, I'm paralyzed. I can't move easily. Can you take me in for a few more days, or I will starve to death when I go out. " Miss fairy wine is in a dilemma. "There are many things in front of the widow's door."

Suddenly, the old man fell to the ground and firewood was scattered all over the floor. Mrs. Fairy Wine rushed over and saw the old man's breath was weak, shouting "water, water ...". Where can there be water in the middle of nowhere? Mrs. Fairy Wine bit her finger and was about to drop blood into the old man's mouth when he suddenly disappeared.
