Chapter 286: Filial Piety
Complaining is complaining, to the next day, Luo Zhen still accompanied Jinxiu to go to Chengguo Gong's mansion, as soon as he entered the gate, he met Cheng Guogong, Cheng Guogong seemed to be in a good mood, waved his hand to exempt the little couple, and asked them to follow him to the hall to talk, since the consultant Luo Zhen gave him tea and wine last time, is there any? If you have it, bring it again! Those old friends of his old robe Ze have tasted it, all of them are applauded, and those who haven't tasted it come to him every day to make noise!
The old man looked proud, and said with a smile: "Old guys, they always say that they have such and such good things on weekdays, just hide them, show them and don't give them food, stingy bala!" The old ghost of Jing'an Hou went to the palace to cry poor, and the emperor gave him a lot of rewards, one of which was a jar of Xishan brew, he was willing to give us a taste, one person and one chopstick! His grandmother's, who is rare! Our Chengguo Mansion has always been bold, so we don't do that kind of shameful thing! I couldn't help it that day, so I took it out and let them taste it one by two, and the old boys shouted that it was a fairy brew! Then one after the other ran towards me! No, it's only been a few days and I've eaten it all! I also shouted that I gave birth to such a good grandson, so I should treat them a few more times! Hahahaha! Back then, everyone cared about life and death, and now there are only a few old friends left, and they must always be treated fairly, and each one must be let them eat enough! ”
Luo Zhen was expressionless, glanced at Jinxiu silently, said a few words in Jinxiu's belly, and said with a smile: "It is appropriate for children and grandchildren to respect their elders, but there is, they should bring it!" The two jars of wine for my grandfather, the original master of our Chizhou wine shop took a lot of effort, accidentally developed a new product, and did not dare to brew it in large quantities to sell, first sent someone to send ten jars into Beijing to ask for the name, Ah Zhen himself does not understand wine, only let a few of his friends who can drink wine taste, all said excellent, this dare to take it to honor grandfather, and now there seem to be two jars left in the warehouse of Houfu! As for the tea, it was brought back by two shopkeepers who went down to Jiangnan to see the goods, saying that it was a famous tea in the Changde area, and there were two or three catties, and I and Ah Zhen couldn't find anything good about that tea, I thought it was very ordinary, and I thought I wanted to take it away and give it away! ”
Cheng Guogong glared: "Give it away?" Don't send it! You keep it for me! Children drink tea only to quench their thirst, cattle drink in general, and you have a light taste now, so you can't taste the special taste of tea! This tea is also superb! You don't understand, don't spoil me! Hurry back and bring it to me! ”
Jinxiu said: "We were supposed to come over today to greet the elders, I'...... The granddaughter-in-law hasn't gone into the inner courtyard to visit her grandmother yet! ”
Cheng Guogong waved his hand: "No need! Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, you guys come over early for a reunion dinner! Then you can say hello to your grandmother, aunt and aunt by the way! ”
Jinxiu secretly thought that this was cheap, no wonder Luo Zhen ran to his grandfather so diligently, it turned out that the old man was a bribe, and he didn't care about the rules if he got some benefits!
Luo Zhen took Jinxiu and wanted to leave, but Cheng Guogong asked again: "Then the Chizhou Wine Shop is our family?" ”
Luo Zhen replied: "It's the dowry of embroidery!" ”
Cheng Guogong nodded: What about the dowry? The granddaughter-in-law is all their own, and the winery must not be surnamed Luo!
Because he said, "That wine is very good! Since it was sent to Beijing to ask for a name, you have to reply quickly, let them brew it immediately, the more the better! Send a big ship to the capital to sell, manage and sell well, I'm afraid it won't be enough to sell! Well, you have to remember to send a letter to Chizhou, and then ask them to send me a dozen or twenty altars first! Now go back to the Hou Mansion and see if there are only two altars in the warehouse? Take it with more! I really don't like to drink, so I keep it for nothing! ”
Luo Zhen and Jinxiu walked out with their heads down, but saw Luo Song sitting in a wooden wheelchair parked outside the hall, and there was a young woman with plump body and beautiful facial features standing next to the wheelchair.
"Hello third master, third grandmother Ann!"
Luo Zhendang didn't see her, and only saluted Luo Song to say goodbye.
After Jinxiu greeted Luo Song, she leaned over the woman slightly: "Aunt Ye is good!" Aunt Ye has worked hard! ”
When Ye Shi heard this, he raised his head and looked at Jinxiu again, with a gentle smile on his face: "The third grandmother is polite, and the concubine is terrified!" ”
Luo Song looked sideways at Ye Shi and said, "You are a big person, you should be respected by them, you don't have to be like this!" ”
frowned and glared at Luo Zhen again: "She is your mother-in-law, how dare she be rude?" ”
Luo Zhen said indifferently: "The third uncle is mistaken, right?" I'm not Luo Fang, I'm Luo Zhen! Luo Zhen's father never had a concubine room during his lifetime, so this concubine is Luo Fang's! ”
Jinxiu raised his sleeves to cover his lips and coughed lightly: This guy must have done it on purpose, Luo Fang is not in the third room now, he is the heir of the big house, and he also has no concubine!
Cheng Guogong was anxious about his two jars of wine, and when he heard Luo Song blocking Luo Zhen and his wife at the door of the hall, he walked out quickly and said, "If there is anything to talk about tomorrow, let them go back to the Hou Mansion quickly!" ”
He walked down the corridor to find his long-term entourage, nagging all the way: "Where did the idiot go?" Hurry up and get me out! Follow the third master and the third grandmother to the house over there, get the things back, pay attention carefully, and won't spare you if you break it! ”
Luo Song choked Luo Zhen, wanted to get angry and was interrupted by his father, paused, looked at Jinxiu and said, "Xiu'er, that jade snow cream recipe is indeed what you sold to you...... Auntie's? ”
Jinxiu replied: "That recipe is not mine, it was originally an old friend of mine, her family has opened a pharmacy since their ancestors, and has collected a lot of good recipes, this jade snow paste is a dowry for her, she thinks that it is not much use to hold a piece of paper, it is better to sell it for some industry, so she entrusted it to me!" ”
Luo Song said: "I heard that you can also make it?" ”
Jinxiu hurriedly shook his head: "I keep the agreement, as a middleman, I have indeed collected and seen and tried to make it, but I will never make this ointment and sell it for profit!" I could swear! ”
"It's not that you are asked to make it and sell it, I want to use it myself. Well, just make a dozen or twenty bottles, and the medicinal materials in the Fuzhong warehouse are at your disposal! ”
Before Jinxiu could answer, Luo Zhenyi grabbed her hand and pulled her closer to his side: "You can see clearly, she is my wife, Mrs. Baoding Hou!" It's not your family calling the girl! ”
Luo Song said: "Presumptuous! No matter what your current status is, one is born to me, and the other is my daughter-in-law! As it is, no one can change it! ”
Luo Zhen: "......"
Forget about Luo Songslag, he turned into a scoundrel, and he was out of line for a while.
Jinxiu said: "Third uncle, why bother? Not to mention the complicated procedures for making jade snow ointment, there are more than 100 kinds of medicinal materials to collect, and there are many requirements, in short, it is very difficult! I remember that I tried to make it once when I was bored in my hometown in Chizhou last year, and I was tired for three days, and the effect of the medicine was not good, just because I didn't know much about the properties of the medicine, and I couldn't master the heat! And Mrs. Shizi has her own pharmacy, all kinds of medicinal materials are complete, and there are special pharmaceutical workshops, all of which are operated by old pharmacists, and the jade snow paste they make is really good, which is no different from the time-honored brands in Chizhou City! When Mrs. Shizi asked me to do an appraisal, she gave me two bottles, and I knew that! If the third uncle wants it, just ask Mrs. Shizi, the price of the shop in his own shop is expensive, and if it is only the cost, it is nothing! ”
The corner of Luo Song's eyes slanted towards Ye's body, and he sighed slightly: "I'm with your aunt now-just because she misdisciplined your two sisters, we can't talk about it, she is awkward and ignores me, and I can't ask her!" It's too expensive in the pharmacy, originally it was only eighty-eight taels and one bottle, but for some reason the jade snow cream is suddenly not enough to sell these days, and each bottle has risen to one hundred taels! My money is in your aunt's hands......"
Seeing this situation, Jinxiu roughly understood what was going on: if she wanted jade snow cream, and she wanted a lot, it must be Ye's idea!
As for why she asked for ten or twenty bottles in one go, it goes without saying? I beautify myself, and I want to give gifts to my sisters! The Ye family might have thought that the pharmacy selling Yuxue paste belonged to the Luo family, but they didn't know that it was actually the Jin family's private property!
The newlywed Yan'er, Luo Song must be spoiling the Ye family, and if the Ye family can't do anything, he will have to come forward! It's a pity that the Jin family will not give it to him, and he has been paralyzed in bed for a long time, and the money in the third room is in the hands of the Jin family...... He is now a thousand taels of silver and is stumped by a hero!
actually asked himself to make jade snow paste for him and please his concubine, it was really hard for him to think of it!
Luo Zhen activated the ice cube face mode, his eyes were cold, and he wanted to assassinate Luo Song!
Jinxiu smiled secretly in her heart, she didn't show anything on her face, she just pretended to be reluctant to Luo Zhen, and was taken away by him "obediently"!
Luo Song saw that Luo Zhen's refusal was so resolute, and he was not obsessed with Yuxue ointment, but he shouted two sentences from behind, and successfully angered Luo Zhen again:
"You honor my grandfather and my wine and tea, and next time you send it to Beijing, leave me more!" I've got you the name of that wine, and it's called 'Higashiyama Snow Song'!" ”
Jinxiu tightly pulled Luo Zhen's sleeve so as not to make him turn around and be angry at Luo Song.
Back in the house, Jinxiu didn't let the steward and the girl do it, he went into the warehouse to rummage, Luo Zhen stayed outside, after a while, Jinxiu called the fragrant branch tea in, pointed to the wooden box under the shelf, taught them to turn out the tea, and packaged it separately, and the two wine jars were carried from the corner of the wall at will.
Waiting for Cheng Guogong's entourage to take the things away, the couple walked into the study to rest, served hot tea with fragrant tea, and closed the door when they exited.
Luo Zhen pulled Jinxiu into the room, sat on the Luohan bed together, and said: "The wine used in the New Year's Guogong Mansion, as well as the wine used in our Hou Mansion to make up for the wedding banquet, are all Chizhou wine, everyone drinks happily, my grandfather also asked me, I only vaguely said that there is a wine shop in Chizhou, and my friend led me to see it!" It's good for you to admit that it's your own! Look, the nobles use wine like water, and they won't give silver, and you ...... when the time comes."
Jinxiu smiled and hugged his arm and shook it: "Don't worry, I'm so stingy?" You bought my dowry for me, and you still have a share of the face of the Guogong Mansion, since the wine from the winery is going to be sold into Beijing, can you hide it from them? We can salute first and then soldier, and set a quantity for the Guogong Mansion, and if the quantity is exceeded, we have to give silver, how about it? ”
Luo Zhen thought for a moment and nodded: "That's how it should be!" Save them from being insatiable! ”
"The 'Dongshan Snow Song' that the third master said?"
Luo Zhen denied: "No! Chizhou wine has a long name, 'Chizhou Laojiao', it's very good! The last time I sent those three jars, I read the notes of Daoist Yunyi in the study of the wooden house after practicing, and went to the workshop to brew them by myself, and mixed them together with five or six kinds of grains...... Because of my grandfather's good wine, I wanted to taste it for my grandfather, but I was stopped by Luo Song and took away a jar! I don't think I'll come up with a name, do I? What do you do with him? ”
"But I like the word 'snow song' he said! Don't you think these two words are very vivid...... Isn't it wonderful? Your scumbag seems to be a little more literate than you! ”
Luo Zhen was speechless, he was in that situation when he was a child, it would be good to have a teacher to teach, he could read and count, and he was delusional about what kind of writing: "Whatever you want, use it if you like, but forget about 'Dongshan', I don't want everyone to know that my father-in-law's family is in Dongshan Village!" ”
"Why? What do you think of my village girl? ”
Luo Zhen laughed angrily: "I think you are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and you don't want them to live a stable life, right?" ”
"It's the same, if this name is dug up and everyone goes to admire it, won't my family be restless?"
Jinxiu leaned on Luo Zhen's shoulder and rolled her eyes: "You don't need Dongshan, then what word to match Xuequ?" Let me think about it! ”
Luo Zhen said: "This wine is really good, but it is ...... Do you really want to brew in large quantities? ”
"Why not? We gave the recipe to the masters of the Chizhou Distillery to brew, and they could make as much as they could, gourd...... There, we have to do something to fake it and sell it in boutiques all over the world! There's food anyway, isn't it? When you don't want to stop doing it, the reason is ready-made: you can't do it if you lack some kind of food! ”
"Well, you can do it yourself, it's easy to make wine in the workshop, I'll do it, I don't have time to take care of the outside business!"
"In the future, to honor my grandfather, you have to find a good excuse first, where the things come from, and whether there will be them in the future, you have to think about it. For example, the kaolin tea, I said that, if someone really went all the way to Changde to find it, wouldn't it hurt him to run for nothing? ”
Luo Zhen smiled: "What kind of 'snow song' fascinated my grandfather's old man, fortunately you gave all the 'monkey brew' to your uncle, otherwise, you would have to let him catch you!" ”
"'Monkey brew', it was brought from Dongshan Village, the Yang family found it from the deep mountains and old forests, and my uncle tasted it in Dongshan Village last year, so he knew that it was delicious, and he knew that I had two jars in my hand, and they were coaxed away for him! Even Zhu Mi's guards who followed me each had a bottle hidden! This wine is delicious and nourishing, drunk and not good, very good for the elderly, I wanted to give your grandfather a jar, but now it's gone! But I made 'Hundred Fruit Wine' in it, which I made after the monkeys, and I wanted to seal it for a while before I took it out - I'll see when the time comes! ”
Luo Zhen felt a little headache: "Do you want to give it to your grandfather?" I'm really afraid that he will come to entangle every day, and bring a group of old men, some of whom are still kind to me! Embroidery, or we won't be so filial, right? ”
The two of them stared at each other, and they couldn't help but laugh. (To be continued.) )
