Chapter 569: Recruit a son-in-law

Now seeing Chengzi taking care of Aman so much, the little girl also looks like she relies on and trusts Chengzi wholeheartedly and talks happily...... A thought suddenly floated in Qiu Chen's mind - if he could recruit Chengzi as a son-in-law in the future, he wouldn't have to worry about his daughter marrying into her in-law's family and being bullied!

This also made Qiu Chen like this child more and more, and valued this child more and more.

Whether Yang Shuyong or Yang Shumeng, they all rely heavily on Chengzi, two workshops in Anyang, a lake wetland and four fertile fields Zhuangzi, are indispensable for Chengzi to participate in the management, and there are many Chengzi inspection and supervision of accounts...... In this way, Chengzi has not delayed his studies, and now Chengzi also has an identity, and he is a talent and fame in the examination with Junyan Junshu...... With fame and family property, Chengzi can concentrate on studying and taking the exam, and no longer care about the affairs of Zhuangzi's workshop, so as to strive for the examination to be promoted, and participate in the palace examination today, so as to get ahead in the gold list. But Chengzi didn't do that, but continued to devote himself to several uses, studied hard, and took care of Zhuangzi and the workshop wholeheartedly......

Chengzi, a child with a heart, is also a kind person, and has been working hard since he defected to Liujiaao's Lin family. And with excellent qualifications, smart and clever, and knowing etiquette, Old Man Mu secretly took Aman away from home and was bumped into by him, and followed without hesitation, and went for many years. At that time, Chengzi was only a twelve-year-old boy, but he had always taken good care of Aman...... After coming back, Qiu Chen praised him a lot, not only returned the deed of sale to him, but also gave him a share of Zhuangzi. Chengzi went from a boy who sold himself to a small landlord with a family property. The identity changes, but he is not arrogant or impatient, he is still humble and cautious, knows etiquette, and has always been diligent and serious, whether he is studying or working, he does his best, and he asks for perfection......

While eating, Qiu Chen kept paying attention to the children's table. Aman and Chengzi sat together, and they talked and laughed during the meal, and they were very cordial. Chengzi has also been taking good care of Aman, serving soup with vegetables, and picking fish bones when eating fish...... Bi Afu, his own brother, takes care of him thoughtfully. Qiu Chen saw it in his eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Ah Man smiled and said to Chengzi: "The master just went out to visit a friend before, and it will take two or three days to come back." Otherwise, as soon as I hear that Brother Chengzi is coming, his old man will definitely take the school test and test your kung fu. ”

After eating, Qin Zheng took the children to the school to practice as usual, and Yang Shumeng also had some activities at home in the morning and evening, and he was also used to it. After drinking the sobering soup and resting again, the strength of the wine passed, and I went to the school with me. Chengzi's practice is the most conscious, and it is also the most hardworking, and he has been separated from Afu Aman for a few years, and when they meet, they also have the heart to learn from each other, so they naturally follow.

The children chattered and laughed lively, and then quieted down, and they all realized and thought.

The guests and hosts enjoyed a meal and benefited a lot.

Qiu Chen's words not only woke up Yang Shumeng, but also made the older children on the other table, Chengzi, Junyan Junzhang and Afu Aman, also have an understanding. You can't sit back and wait for anything, as long as you think of it, you can do it, you are not afraid of setbacks or failures, you can ponder a little bit, constantly improve and summarize, and you will gradually achieve perfection...... The same is true for winemaking, and the same is true for reading!

Qiu Chen has never brewed wine, but the power of the modern media information network has made her understand that the information she has access to is far from being comparable to this closed era, and she also understands some of the basic steps and basic conditions of winemaking. What's more, he suddenly realized that he had always thought about making wine before, but he had been waiting...... After listening to his sister's words, he realized that he couldn't make wine even if he had food when he was waiting, and only by starting early, persevering patiently, and striving for perfection could he brew real wine when he had food.

“…… The rarest thing about making sake is the water, and the second is the fermentation cellar...... And the longer you use it, the better, the taste of the decades and hundreds of years old cellar is definitely not comparable to the raw cellar, you start trial production this year, and after a few years, the raw cellar will be mature......"

Yang Shumeng was woken up by Qiu Chen, and his brain, which was still a little dizzy just now, only felt that he was awake in an instant, and his heart was hot when he heard it, and his hands couldn't help but clench tightly, looking at the excited expression on his face, he really couldn't rush back immediately, and began to try to make wine, pondering the recipe for making wine.

Speaking of this, Qiu Chen handed Qin Zheng a cup of autumn pear and lily decanting soup, then took the empty teacup in Yang Shumeng's hand, refilled it and handed it back, and said with a smile: "You don't have to wait for a year or two, our food is not enough to brew a lot at this time, and it is okay to take out a thousand eight thousand catties every year, you might as well try to brew these grains, try out the most suitable grain ratio, and wait for corn and sweet potatoes to be popularized, we don't need to supply a large number of seeds, you have a tried wine-making recipe in your hand, You can let go of your hands at any time, and the wine you brew is really delicious, but you don't have to worry about making money. A pound of coarse wine is worth hundreds of dollars, not to mention those fine wines, it is not impossible to have tens or hundreds of taels per catty. So, don't just wait for enough food before you start, you can try it from this year, try it for a few more years, and make real wine...... I think that the water in Liujiaao is good, the water quality of the mountain stream is very good, sweet and sweet, if you try it well, you will build a workshop on the back mountain, and take care of the brewing workshop and the pharmaceutical workshop on the other hand, so that nothing will be ......delayed."

Qiu Chen laughed, looked at the second brother who was stunned by her laughter, and said, "Second brother, since you can use millet and glutinous rice to make wine elsewhere, it means that other grains can also be used...... Or, you can also use several grains to brew together, now we have planted corn, and we have also planted sweet potatoes, and the sweet potatoes are sliced and dried into dried sweet potatoes, and then boiled and eaten are similar to grains, you can also try. ”

Yang Shumeng was a little frustrated by Qiu Chen's words, but he still had luck: "I don't expect this to make money, so let's ......make some wine and drink it ourselves."

Qiu Chen smiled, nodded, and said: "What the second brother said is indeed good, but if the second brother thinks about using sorghum to make wine, I am afraid that there will be no way for a while, don't forget how much sorghum is harvested per acre?" Good land, good water and good fertilizer, plus good service, plus the wind and rain are smooth, at best, it is only four stones, five stones to the sky. You know, winemaking is the most grain-consuming, just five stones per mu, we don't plant anything on the side of the village, all of them are planted into sorghum, and we can't make much wine. ”

Yang Shumeng said unequivocally: "Naturally, it is sorghum, and we have always used sorghum to make wine in the north." Millet is used less, I heard that only Langya Mountain in Shandong Province uses millet to make wine, and the wine produced is rich and mellow, similar to the rice wine brewed in the south. Or sorghum wine, stronger and stronger...... I had already thought that if I made wine with sorghum and steamed it twice, the wine I got was guaranteed to be delicious, sweet and rich, and I would never want to drink it again. ”

Soft-spoken, no accusation, no preaching, Yang Shumeng was obviously restrained, took the teacup with a smile and drank it, Qiu Chen poured another one, and handed it back to Yang Shumeng, then said with a smile: "Second brother, what do you mean by the harvest?" Sorghum or Millet? ”

Qiu Chen looked at the second brother who was obviously drunk, shook his head a little funny, took out a cup of autumn pear lily kudzu root tea from the food box next to him, and handed it to Yang Shumeng: "When it comes to brewing and steaming wine, the second brother can't hold back with joy. Have a cup of tea and listen to me. ”

Brother Yun was full and couldn't stay, so he slipped down and ran to join in the fun among his brothers and sisters.

"Do you like it too? Haha, right, after drinking a cup so fiercely, there is a line of fire in my throat and eyes, and my stomach suddenly becomes hot, even if it is cold, at most three cups, my whole body becomes hot, even if it is icy and snowy, I don't feel cold. Seeing that Qin Zheng also agreed with his opinion, Yang Shumeng became even more excited, and the excitement and excitement combined with the strength of the wine made the already reddish face more and more swollen and red, and a face seemed to have become a burgundy cloth, only a pair of eyes were bright, shining with joy and excitement.

Yes, listening to Yang Shumeng speak like this, Qin Zheng not only did not misunderstand, but felt familiar and familiar, and smiled rarely: "Second brother doesn't have to explain, I know." Not to mention the second brother, even I like the strong and strong strength of steamed wine. ”

Qin Zheng is used to getting along with the soldiers of the border army, in comparison, the soldiers of the border army are much more straightforward and simple than Yang Shumeng, Qin Zheng knows that these people are straightforward and real-spirited, they will not think twice about what they want to say, what they say is what they say, there is generally nothing to beat around the bush, listen to them, there is no need to think too much, even if they scold, they will still call them brothers and sisters when they turn around.

Hurriedly smiled and explained: "Brother-in-law, don't be careful, I just said steamed wine, what I know about your wine is a rare good wine." ”

After speaking, I remembered that there was a brother-in-law in front of me, saying this in front of my brother-in-law, it was easy to cause misunderstanding, and if it was not good, I thought that he didn't know how to lift, and if he was too warm to entertain, he became a villain!

After three rounds of wine, Yang Shumeng looked at Qiu Chen and said: "Our family's wine retort has been idle, like this year, there will be two more harvest years, we can also make our own wine and re-steam the wine...... After drinking steamed wine, these wines are not soft enough! ”

More than a dozen people, large and small, gathered on a table, and set up a large round table on the ground, Qiu Chen took Brother Yun to accompany Qin Zheng and Yang Shumeng on the couch, Qin Zheng and Yang Shumeng both drank Jinhua wine, Qiu Chen and Chengzi, Junyan Junzhang Afu Aman were the same, and drank sweet and delicious lychee wine.

Not only are there three children, Qin Zheng Qiu Chen and Afu Amanyun, Yang Shumeng, Junyan Junzhang Junli and Chengzi, Qiu Chen also ordered someone to call Zhixian and Zhide together, only Yixuan and Mingwei, because Yixuan is inconvenient, and after all, there is a difference between men and women, so let their mother and daughter eat in Wisteria Xuan by themselves.

Relatives are reunited, and this reunion banquet is naturally joyful.

Qiu Chen and Qin Zheng glanced at each other, and then ordered: "Pass it, there are no people outside today, so you don't have to go elsewhere, just arrange the small flower hall in front!" ”

Laughing, Lin came in with a smile and asked, "Master Hou, madam, the dinner is ready." ”

Yang Shu nodded with a smile and said, "Seeing that I have entered the wax moon, I have to rush back for the New Year, and I have to be busy before the year, and I can't stay if I want to!" ”

Qin Zheng raised his hand and patted his wife beside him, giving her a relieved look, then turned back to Yang Shu and said fiercely: "Since the two elders in the family are good, there is not much work in Zhuangzi at this time, and the second brother will spend more days in Beijing." ”

In front of men, if the family has strict rules, how dare women intervene casually. Seeing his sister relax so casually, in Yang Shumeng's opinion, it was somewhat unruly, and he knew that his brother-in-law treated his sister really well, but I didn't have to say it, Yang Shumeng, my mother's brother, was naturally full of relief and more relieved.

Yang Shumeng looked at his sister and laughed: "Don't worry, my eldest brother and I are both concerned, your two sisters-in-law are also taken care of, you take care of yourself and your children in Beijing, and you don't have to worry about the family, it's all right!" ”

Qiu Chen interjected when he heard this: "Second brother, does our mother think the same way?" You have to persuade and persuade you when you go back, you can't take it lightly, you still have to eat those pills, and you have to pay attention to what you should pay attention to. ”

Qin Zheng's words care about Mrs. Liu, whether it is true or false, but the concern for her sister is real, Yang Shumeng is also relieved, and said with a smile: "Her old man has been eating begonia recipes for recuperation all these years, and the old disease has improved a lot, and she almost didn't commit much in the winter last year. ”

Qin Zheng said: "My mother-in-law has the root of coughing and asthma, and she wants to let her old man live here for the winter and then go back to Anyang, but the old man is worried about his home and insists on leaving, Haitang and I have been thinking about it, I am afraid that the cold wind will blow on the road of her old man and make an old illness, this time the second brother is here, so I don't have to worry about sleeping and eating anymore." ”

The two of them exchanged a few words of greeting, and it was really as Yang Shumeng said, his family didn't need to be too polite, Qin Zheng let Yang Shumeng sit in the hall, and the girls sent hot towels to wipe their faces, and then greeted the second elder in the family and the eldest brother and sister-in-law and sister-in-law, and Yang Shumeng answered one by one.

Arching his hand in return, Yang Shu smiled fiercely and said, "Brother-in-law is too polite!" It's a serious matter in the yamen, and our own family doesn't have so many politeness! ”

To be honest, Yang Shumeng is really not familiar with Qin Zheng's brother-in-law, and he is always a little stunned in his heart, which is probably related to the subconscious fear of officials by ordinary people. However, after a few short contacts, it can be seen that this brother-in-law in a high position has a lot of respect for the second elder and their brothers, and he does not have the official tone of an official, nor does he put on any stands.

"Well, I already know." Agreed, Qin Zheng took off the big on his body and threw it to the girl who was waiting next to him, and when he turned around, he saw Yang Shumeng also coming out of the second room with a smile, and hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted, "The second brother entered Beijing, and he should have welcomed him from afar, but there is something in the yamen today that he can't get out, and he can't welcome him from afar, so the second brother will take care of it!" ”

Qiu Chen had already gotten up to greet him, watching Qin Zheng take Brother Yun'er and kiss him, and then raised his hand to rub the top of Aman's little girl's head, the father and son were hot for a while, and then they stepped forward to take Brother Yun'er, and said with a smile, "You're back...... The second brother is here! ”

"Daddy......" Brother Yun'er said in a slightly clumsy and vague voice, and at the same time stretched out his little hand to Qin Zheng who stepped into the house to hug him.

"Daddy!" Aman cried out sweetly.

The boys who were talking and laughing were all quiet, and Yang Shumeng, who was talking to his sister, also stopped, but Aman was the first to get up, picked up Brother Yun from Yang Shumeng's arms, and went to the door together.

The house was lively, and the girl at the door announced: "Master Hou is back!" ”

Not long after, Afu Aman also came home from school, and when he saw his second uncle Yang Shumeng and Chengzi, he was naturally overjoyed, and he greeted each other again, and he laughed and laughed.

Qiu Chen and Yang Shumeng looked at the three lively and healthy children were relieved and happy, seeing that Junyan Junzhang couldn't squeeze up, the brother and sister simply left the kang and came to the wooden couch near the window to sit down, Yang Shumeng took Brother Yun in Qiu Chen's arms and teased, while talking to his sister.

Jiu'er grabbed the jade lock on his chest, stopped biting his little hands, and casually stuffed the jade lock into his mouth.

Liang'er was not interested in the jade lock, and also felt that Yang Shumeng's uncle was very fresh, his little hands were still pulling his socks, but his eyes were staring at Yang Shumeng and did not move.

As he spoke, Yang Shumeng took out two jade locks of the same color and style, and hung them on Liang'er and Jiu'er's bodies respectively.

Yang Shumeng has always doted on his sister, and later changed to Qiu Chen, Yang Shumeng's love for his sister has added a lot of respect and admiration, generally Qiu Chen said that he unconditionally agreed, but this time he made an exception and did not approve, glared at Qiu Chen, very much the majesty of his brother, and said: "What kind of money?" It's a serious matter for an uncle to give a meeting gift to his nephew, how can it be a waste of money! …… Isn't it? Is what the second uncle said right? ”

"Chang'er, this is your second uncle." As he spoke, Qiu Chen glanced at Yang Shumeng and said with a smile, "Brother, you are spending money again!" ”

"Haha, the second uncle's gift for you!" Yang Shumeng stood beside the smoker and roasted for a while, feeling that the cold on his body was almost gone, so he stepped forward, picked up Chang'er, and hung a mutton fat jade lock on the little guy's jacket. Chang'er didn't know what to expect, she just looked at the face in front of her, and she didn't care about anything else, she just stared at the poplar with her dark and bright eyes.

Seeing such cute three buns, not to mention that Yang Shumeng, the second uncle, is rare, even Chengzi, an unrelated brother, is also overjoyed.

Liang'er is the quietest, with one foot cocked, and with both hands struggling to pull the small socks on the feet, but pulling the head of the socks with one hand and the sock tube with the other, I don't know whether the little thing wants to take off the socks or put on the socks.

Jiu'er focused on her little fist and tried to put it into her mouth;

Chang'er also protruded her little mouth and spat foam, like a little crab;

Triplets are rare, and in this era, the medical conditions are backward, and there are almost no such good ones who can survive and grow. Three small buns of the same size, similar appearance, wearing the same color and style of clothes are lying side by side on the kang, and the three little buns are chubby and meaty, pink carved jade, the eyes are black and bright like crystal, the eyes are flexible, and the cuteness is infinite.

Yang Shumeng took the children to Mu'en Courtyard, and the three Chang'er brothers and sisters also packed up neatly, put on small cotton jackets and pants and hugged them to the kang in Qiu Chen's house.

Shaking his head with a tolerant smile, Yang Shu continued to walk with his hands behind his back, although the children were talking, laughing and laughing, they did not delay things, and followed behind four or five steps behind.

Chengzi is very familiar with Junyan Junzhang Junli, Chengzi is thoughtful, fair, intelligent and hardworking...... Junyan Junzhang and Junli are very admired, several people have been getting along for seven or eight years, and they have already been no different from brothers, reuniting separately, naturally happy, and there is no estrangement. Don't say your own children, Chengzi can also be said to be Yang Shumeng who grew up, and his own children are similar, really close to the beloved, watching the children get along happily, lively, Yang Shumeng is naturally happy, watching the children are active and lively Heartless joy, unconsciously lenient and indulgent. Children also have a day to grow up, and the joy and relaxation of childhood and adolescence will become a lifelong nostalgia.

Seeing that the three children were not only not thin, but also ruddy, full of energy, and taller. The clothes don't look very bright, but they are better than the ones at home, pleasing to the eye, looking at Su Su quietly, but looking extravagant...... Yang Shumeng was naturally very happy, after receiving the children's salute, after screaming, he touched this one's head and patted that one's shoulder, Yang Shumeng asked the children if they could keep up with their studies, and whether they listened to their aunt's words...... After the children answered, they also asked about the family in a wordless manner. Before entering Beijing, the mastiff at home was about to give birth, what is the situation now? Did the wild wine they brewed before they come have it? There is also this year's winter fishing...... After answering two or three questions, he waved his hand to stop the children's endless trivial and boring questions, turned around and went out with his hands behind his back, called Chengzi, and went all the way to the backyard.

Yang Shumeng went to the guest house to wash off his dust, changed into a clean gray and cyan tung silk Tuanfu dark flower clothes, cleaned up neatly, and then came out of the clean room, as soon as he looked up, three half-sized children with happy faces greeted him, kowtowed and saluted. Junyan greeted the second uncle, Junzhang and Junli were happy to call their father, the three boys left home for three months, and the grandmother Liu and mother (aunt) Zhou also left Beijing two months ago to return to their hometown.

When the news of Yang Shu's fierce entry into Beijing was sent to the Jingbei Hou Mansion, someone naturally sent it to the Ministry of Industry. Not only Qin Zheng knew, but Qin Yong, who was on duty on duty on this day, also knew, but because Qin Zheng was busy with affairs in the Ministry of Industry these days, he was really a new fire mine, and when Qin Zheng received the news, he happened to have just improved it and was about to test it. This time the fire and thunder improvement, before and after, trial production and transformation, tossed for more than a month, seeing that the design effect is about to be achieved, Qin Zheng naturally will not abandon the public because of private reasons, leaving behind Fuwang and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and many others, and running home alone to meet his brother-in-law.
