Chapter 16: Thanksgiving

After this dramatic change, the small restaurant finally returned to tranquility, Xu Dashan let out a long breath, and walked in front of Yi Bo at this time, Xu Zhi and Xu Yong also followed.

"If there is no help from Gongzi Wei today, the old man's family will fall apart, thank you very much, our family has nothing to repay, the old man has nothing else, plus the two sons, there is still some brute strength, if the son has anything to do in the future, just send it......" After speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed.

Xu Zhi and Xu Yong, the two brothers, even knelt down with Xiaoyan and Shuangyue, which caught Yi Bo a little off guard, today's matter, for himself, although it took some time and energy to pay off these debts, in general, because of this identity, it is not a very difficult thing. In addition, he has other plans, and it is not entirely to help their family. I was a little reluctant to go, and naturally I had no shame to accept this big gift, and the man had gold under his knees, for him a modern person, kneeling is a heavy etiquette, but I don't know that in this era, the people have to kneel when they see the officials, and this kneeling is not a rare thing.

Yi Bo hurriedly walked over, helped them up, and said politely: "Uncle Xu, how can you do this, this is just a gesture, not to mention that Xiaoyan has come to our Wei family, this is your business, even if it is my business, if you do it again, I will have to be angry......" In this era, it is said that it is very affordable, the children of ordinary officials and eunuchs, how can they be so approachable, and the occasional charity is also for thanksgiving and accept it calmly, because they feel that this is what it should be, Yibo is a modern person with different concepts, This concept of equality made Xu Dashan even more grateful.

However, Yi Bo called Xu Dashan his uncle, and said that Xiaoyan entered the Wei family, and the two had no distinction between each other, which is a bit intriguing. Yi Bo is already sixteen years old, in ancient times a man was sixteen years old is already a big age, 16 years old can be married after the age of 16 is okay, in ancient times no one limited when you can get married, fingers for marriage also. So it is also possible for these two families to get married at this age. Yi Bo looked at a few people looking at him with strange eyes, and also noticed his own language disease, this can be joked and said casually in modern times, but not in ancient times, coughed twice, pretended not to know, and then continued: "This brute force, it's not very necessary, but this restaurant, I want to do something, and then I will trouble you, do something, mainly about wine......making" Xu Dashan nodded, this restaurant was already mortgaged, and he didn't plan to come back, It is understandable that Yibo has now helped pay off all the arrears and then taken over. What's more, after such a stubble, Xu Dashan's ambition to make money is gone, and he only plans to farm honestly for a living.

"If it's winemaking, the old man can really help a little, is Wei Gongzi going to run this restaurant again?" asked Xu Dashan. "Probably...... It's quite complicated, I can't tell you for a while, I'll tell you in detail about my thoughts later......" Yi Bo touched his forehead and moved his body, now he is also confused, and his thoughts have not yet been sorted out.

"Oh, you see I'm so confused...... It's been standing for so long, let's go and rest for a while......" Xu Dashan reacted. "It's okay...... That's it" At this time in the Tang Dynasty, that kind of high stool was still not popular, and it was generally sitting on a low stool mattress, and it was not very comfortable. After the polite greetings were finished, he nagged about homely things and the like, and asked nothing more than how Xiaoyan behaved and so on, Yibo naturally praised it and made Xiaoyan happy, in fact, except for Xiaoyan, there are not many common words.

In addition, in fact, Yi Bo is also dealing with Xiaoyan's family for the first time, although Wei Yingwu has a good relationship with Xiaoyan, but he doesn't know much about her family, and it is a question of whether he knows her or not. This gap in status still makes the two parties seem a little rusty and restrained.

Let's get acquainted. In fact, in this family, Xiaoyan is still quite lively, Shuangyue is a little shy, Xu Zhi is honest, Xu Yong is a little more clever, and they can be regarded as having their own merits. Xiaoyan and Shuangyue are whispering something, Shuangyue is a year younger than Xiaoyan, but except for being a little thinner, he is already as tall as Xiaoyan. Shuangyue, this girl, looked at Yi Bo with some curiosity, the young master who served her sister, saw Yi Bo looking over at the same time, a little panicked, Xiao Yan giggled on the side. Yi Bo looked at this thin little girl, her hair was a little yellow, and she felt like a yellow-haired girl, but her facial features were exquisite, and her spirit was revealed, which was rare in the countryside and the city, and it was no wonder that Wu Li was thinking about such a little girl in every possible way, but it was obviously because she couldn't eat enough and didn't warm up, so she would be so weak.

At the same time, thinking that she dared to bear that heavy matter for the sake of her family just now, marrying an old man, with a resolute heart, but not like ordinary people, she felt pity, and walked over and patted her on the head. This is a bit of a little girl, a little girl, but I forgot that I am the heart of an uncle, but I am still a teenager's body. Shuangyue didn't speak at this time, so she was a little unhappy, raised her little head, hesitated, and shouted out: "Brother-in-law, ......" Yi Bo couldn't cry or laugh, nothing had happened to him and your sister, Xiaoyan suddenly turned red at the root of his ears, and muttered to his sister: "Shuangyue, don't shout nonsense......" There are no three hundred taels of silver here, and it seems to be more serious.

Over there, Xu Zhi and Xu Yong also laughed, so that the originally somewhat rusty and stiff atmosphere came alive, but they didn't make it stupid...... "Although it is a little worse, but there is a possibility of implementation, and then, in the surprised eyes of Xu Dashan's family, Yi Bo steamed a jar of rice wine alive. Yi Bo wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, which took several hours, and due to the simplicity of the still and his own unfamiliarity, the effect was not very good. There are a lot of volatilization, and the purity is not enough. However, the small bowl of wine, which was like clear water, had just come out of the oven, and it was full of strong aroma of wine, and the fragrance was overflowing, and it felt like it had penetrated into the bridge of his nose.

"Good wine!" Xu Dashan couldn't help but praise it, he had been immersed in winemaking for many years, and naturally knew that this was a rare wine when he smelled it. And this wine is as clear as water, better than the yellow and clear rice wine, the appearance is much better, Yi Bo couldn't help but taste it, the entrance is sweet, although it is not as good as the liquor of later generations.
