"Why do you need me?" asked Bai Yuan.

Wen Shu turned his head to look at his brother, his face hesitant.

And Wen Shen was very calm: "I have a problem with my tongue and can't taste it, but I can't let anyone else know about this matter, especially my mother and my fifth brother, so I need you." ”

"Can't taste it?" Bai Yuan was taken aback at first, and then became even more puzzled: "Didn't you taste the sword gu when you were gambling and drinking that day?"

Wen Shen shook his head: "I didn't taste it." ”

Bai Shen was puzzled, he stared at Wen Shen, hoping to get an explanation, but Young Master Wen stopped talking.

In the end, Wen Shu took the words: "My fourth brother is ...... I just chose to believe you. ”

Bai Fall's heart seemed to have been hit hard by something.

After a long time, he asked, "When you go to your house, why do you need me to help you?" ”

Wen Shen moved his staggered gaze back, "Taiyongde brewing has its own process, and each process is personally arranged by my father to be in charge, so I don't really need it." I'm looking for you just in case, if something happens, you can help me cover it up. ”

Bai fell: "It's not difficult, just how long is it going to be covered?"

Wen Shen: "Until my illness is cured." Rest assured, the money that should be given to you is only a little more. ”

After speaking, he didn't give Bai Yuan a chance to ask again, and quickly answered: "What's your name?"

"I ......" Bai Yuan's eyes turned between the two siblings, and replied: "The surname is Bai, and the single name is a fallen word." ”

"'Don't be afraid of the bow and the knife, but the white fall of the spring mash', you call this name, it's a pity not to make wine. Wen Shen asked seriously: "Would you like to go back with me, Bai Yuan?"

The matter has already been talked about to this point, and the person who was asked didn't hold it, and immediately nodded: "Cheng, but I have to bring the little guy next to me." ”

Wen Shen nodded in agreement.

Wen Shu was even more overjoyed, she slapped her face, then grabbed Bai Yuan's arm, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go pick up people now, and go back to the wine shop when we get it." ”

Bai Yuan removed her hand and walked to the front to lead the way.

As soon as the three of them walked to Wang Street, they happened to meet the Wen family's buddies.

The guy came on horseback, dressed in a short shirt, short boots, broad shoulders and a loud voice, and when he saw Wen Shen, he shouted: "Young Dongjia! The old lady is coming to Qianyang, you hurry up and go back with me!"

Wen Shen was quite surprised: "Why did you come here all of a sudden?"

The guy: "It must be the ghost behind the back of the fifth young master, the old lady is bent on staying in Chishui, who can please move except him?"

Wen cautiously became serious, "It's too late, you and I will go home first, and let Xiao Shu and Mr. Shen pick up people." This was said to Bai Fall.

Bai Shen didn't understand the situation a little, but he didn't want to ask much at the moment, so he followed Wen Shen and turned over the guy's horse, and hurried all the way to the outskirts of the city.

The Wen family has not yet purchased a mansion in Qianyang, and Tai Yongde's master and servant all live in the winery, making wine in the front and living in the back, but fortunately, the place is large and tidy.

When Bai Shen followed Wen Shen into the inner courtyard, Old Madam Wen was sitting on a mahogany chair in the north hall.

The old lady was old, the flesh of her cheeks drooped downward, and there was a deep furrow between her brows.

When Wen Shen saw her, he hurriedly went in to salute: "My son has seen his mother. ”

The old lady didn't answer his words, but glanced at Bai Cheng and said, "What kind of person is this bringing back!"

"I met on the road," Wen Shen lowered his head, "Xiao Shu felt pitiful, so let me bring it back for something to do." ”

"You are kind-hearted, in these chaotic years, the family's money is blown by the wind?" the old lady glared at Wen Shen unhappily, "Send him out, it's an eyesore." ”

Without a gentle signal, Bai Yuan immediately retreated, but he didn't worry about his new owner, so he deliberately hid by the door.

After the old lady couldn't see him, Wen Shen served a cup of tea, "Mother, you have suffered all the way, drink tea to moisten your throat." ”

"I don't drink," the old lady's expression softened slightly, "and I have no appetite at all in the carriage all the way." I've heard that in Qianyang City, rich people all take cars, but is it true?"

"That's true, of course. The young man standing next to her answered, "But it has to be a rich family, and I will invite my mother and fourth brother to sit again another day." ”

This young man has a baby face, and it seems that it is the fifth young master Wen Ti who is causing trouble.

The old lady cheered: "You are the most filial." ”

"Hehe," Wen Ti smiled and picked up a plate of snacks from the table, "Mother, you can taste it." This is the best-selling osmanthus cake in Qianyang City. You can tear this cake layer by layer, and you can tear off nine layers. Mother, you try. ”

The old lady took it and tried it, and really tore off a layer, and immediately blossomed, "Don't say it, it's true." ”

As she spoke, she put the cake in her mouth, ate two layers in a row, and suddenly picked up the teacup and poured a few bites, "It's delicious, what my son bought is delicious." ”

Wen Shen refilled the cup of tea and asked tentatively, "Mother, is this cake a little dry?"

"It's not dry, it's delicious. The old lady ate another layer, raised her hand and took another cup of tea, and drank a few sips until the whole cake was finished, and praised again and again.

The fifth young master took advantage of the old lady's bowing head, looked at Wen Shen, and smiled very proudly.

Bai Yuan stood outside the door, sighing according to his eyebrows, no wonder the surname Lu said that Wen Shen has no real power, it turns out that the root is here.

He didn't have the heart to peek any more, so he walked out of the inner courtyard and walked into the wine shop.

Someone was breaking grain everywhere, and the trumpet was shouting in unison and bright.

Bai fell counted the days, it was almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was time for Tai Yongde to step on the song.

Someone next to him kept moving food in, and Bai Yuan helped to carry two bags, so tired that his legs were shaking, and he simply gave up.

When the sun was in the west, Wen Shu finally came back with the bell.

She was very quick in her work, arranged accommodation for Bai Yuan and Bell, changed her clothes, and gave two packs of snacks thoughtfully.

During this period, Bai Yuan instructed her: "You have to tell the young owner that people like the two of us who are lazy and lazy can't do hard work." ”

Wen Shu laughed with a "poof": "The fourth brother has to take you with him to be useful, how can you do hard work." ”

"I'm afraid he won't be able to take me with him," Bai Cheng pretended to smile profoundly, "You see I also came in through the back door, you have to arrange a quiet place for us to go." ”

"Got it," Wen Shu couldn't twist him, so he had to agree with a smile: "That one goes to the cellar and the other goes to see the grain pile, is it enough to be free?"

Bai Yan muttered: "The cellar pool is not idle. ”

Wen Shu didn't indulge him again this time, turned around and left.

Early the next morning, the loud guy I saw yesterday knocked on the door, "Get up! This is not the place to sleep until the sun goes down!"

Bai Yuan and Bell rubbed their eyes in a daze and followed him out.

This lord is talkative, and on the road he told Bai Cheng that his name is Shen Zhixing, and he is Tai Yongde's bookkeeper.

Bai Cheng looked at his body shape, looked at his windy steps under his feet, how to look at how he felt out of place.

Shouldn't all the bookkeepers grow up to be the ones surnamed Lu?

Shen Zhixing naturally didn't know what he was thinking, and when he entered from the north gate of the winery, he specially beckoned all the guys who were working to come over and shouted: "These two! You can't do heavy work, you can't do dirty work, you can hear it clearly, don't bully. ”

The last sentence made him grit his teeth and say something else.

The guys immediately laughed: "If he looks good, we will raise him as a flower." ”

"That's right, the eldest lady is in the picture, which one is willing to bully. ”

The bell was full of red, and he pointed at a group of big men and shouted: "That stinky woman talks nonsense all day long! If she hadn't cried and grabbed the ground, chased after my ass and begged for ......"

Bai Yuan covered his mouth, then looked at Shen Zhixing, and said, "Mr. Shen, no matter how light the work is, it is also a life, no matter how simple it is, someone has to do it, you better take our brothers to work." ”

"I did it when I farted. Shen Zhixing said a word and stepped forward, "This one." ”

Not far from the south gate, there is a very strong granary, one zhang high, pointed at the top and round at the bottom.

Shen Zhixing pushed the bell over: "Go, there is an old man Wu inside, you go and give him a hand." ”

The bell looked at Bai Fall very reluctantly, and Bai Fall repeatedly signaled him to be obedient, and he left aggrievedly.

Shen Zhixing took Bai into the cellar again.

Five of the long cellars were dug up, two on the left and one on the right, and one was due south, all of which were finely sealed with yellow mud.

Bai Luo went in and swept his eyes twice, and couldn't help but wonder: "There is wine here?"

"Isn't there any wine in the wine cellar?" Shen Zhixing didn't give him a good look, "You, you clean here every day." Keep an eye on the cellar cap, there can be no debris on it, there can be no tears. Walking back and forth, the movement must be fast, the door must be closed tightly, and the temperature in this room must not be changed, do you understand?"

Bai Yuan didn't care about what he said, but asked after him: "Jiangu was going to go to the sand in Chongyang last year, but didn't Tai Yongde only come to Qianyang a month ago?"

Shen Zhixing became suspicious and reprimanded him: "You shouldn't ask, don't ask." When you really climb the high branch of the eldest lady and become my aunt, ask again. ”

"Who is rare to become your uncle......" Bai fell to sit on the edge of the cellar and sent him away: "You should be busy." ”

"He commanded me to come. Although Shen Zhixing was dissatisfied, he had other things to do, and he didn't entangle.

After he left, Bai Yuan checked every cellar very carefully, and the craftsmanship of this cellar was very superb, and it must have been sealed for more than a month.

Why did Tai Yongde start brewing wine in Qianyang before he entered Qianyang?

He couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't find Wen Shen or Wen Shu right now, so he had to press it for the time being.

For several days, he didn't see them, and could only stare at the cellar in a bored daze.

On the contrary, the bell side was busy.

At noon, Bai Yuan and Bell squatted by the wall, eating a mouthful of bread and a mouthful of food, eating very fragrantly.

The bell said while eating: "I just came to the new grain, and I moved it in sacks and sacks, good guy, I have never seen so much grain in my life!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice inevitably became louder.

Not far away, a dark-skinned guy heard it, walked over with a rice bowl, and asked, "Little one, do you eat soft rice deliciously?"
