Chapter 215, a bumpy life experience
Liu Ruyue hurriedly said, "No, our village was formed by people who fled from the war in the Central Plains before. ”
Looking at Zhong Min, "I once told Brother Zhong that the Cantonese and Western dishes I can cook are all taught to me by my aunt and mother-in-law in the village, in fact, wine-making was also taught to me by a mother-in-law when I was a child." ”
"So, you make wine because the person who makes it is the mother-in-law?"
These questions are the original purpose of their invitation to her today, Liu Ruyue said that she had been prepared for a long time, "No, it's the son of my mother-in-law." ”
One by one, they flashed their eyes with concern and asked, "What's your name?" ”
Take the initiative to say it yourself, lest they go to the bottom of the matter, "It's called Meng Lun." ”
"It can't be from Mengjiazhai, right?"
Liu Ruyue looked at the businessman in surprise, but nodded in her heart, "This boss knows Brother Meng?" ”
The forty-year-old boss stroked his beard and said, "I don't know, it's just that I know too much about western Guangdong, and this wine is not the taste of wine in any village I've been to, so there is only one village with the surname Meng." ”
"Boss Kong, talk about it!"
Someone urged, Boss Kong paused, looked at Yue Wuyi, who had finished drinking, and then looked at Lu Chengze, feeling that now that it is like this, is it too bad to give face to the distinguished guests and steal their limelight?
Yue Wuyi staggered and poured the horn cup, "I've drunk it too, burp~"
He pointed at Liu Ruyue and shook it, blocking Lu Chengze's sight.
Lu Chengze still wants to listen to it, this Yue Wuyi is drunk at a glance, and he is worried that he will make trouble again, and in the future, if he wants to find out the origin of this woman and ask these people, if he is too deliberate, it will attract Shen Manqing's attention, and he will owe these bosses favors.
He looked up and said to Boss Kong, "You can talk, don't worry about me, I am not here today as an official of the imperial court, and my father-in-law called me here in the hope that I can learn more about the customs and customs of western Guangdong." ”
"Brother Yue, you are drunk, come, sit and sober up." Lu Chengze smiled, only a cut below Nangong Lin's elegant appearance, which was refreshing among this group of middle-aged fat businessmen.
Yue Wuyi still wanted to say a few words, but the first time he drank Penglai drunk, which was a little stronger than Penglai pulp, it was still such a big glass, which was equivalent to drinking a catty of two taels of wine directly, which was a bit upset.
was pulled by Lu Chengze, although he was not happy, but he also knew that this person's father-in-law could not be provoked, so he sat back on the chair with him.
Zhong Min also hurriedly arranged for someone to get the sobering soup, and Yue Wuyi muttered, "I'm not drunk...... I can still drink ......, where can I be compared to a woman......"
Lu Chengze hung his head and rolled his eyes, taking care of Yue Wuyi, but his ears listened carefully to Boss Kong's words.
The distinguished guests all said so, and Boss Kong was also happy to show in front of everyone, "Don't look at me now, I can't climb the mountain now, when I was young, I collected snakes, insects, rats and ants, these rare medicines, and I also went deep into the miasma forest swamps in the hinterland of western Guangdong.
The conditions there were difficult, the Miao people were unwilling to live here, and the people of Mengjiazhai were refugees who fled from the previous dynasty, and they were not accepted by the Miao people who were still xenophobic at that time, so they were driven to a small hill near the miasma to survive, and the people inside were basically surnamed Meng ....... ”
Liu Ruyue nodded, it is true.
In the previous life, she and Chu Qianche passed through western Guangdong with darts, and were chased by mountain bandits and strayed into a forest and fell into miasma, it was Meng Lun of Mengjiazhai who saved the two of them and collected medicine to detoxify them.
Meng Lun is a filial son, but his mother is seriously ill all the year round, and he can't earn much money to treat his mother by hunting and collecting medicine.
He had no relatives and no fun, and in the end, in order to save them, he stopped the bandits for the two and was killed.
Since she needs a Westerner from Guangdong who can prove her identity in this life, it is naturally better to find someone she can trust to help.
Although the two have not yet had a relationship in this life, Liu Ruyue owed him half of his life in his last life, so he would repay his kindness by helping his mother treat his illness first, and also conclude a good fate.
Liu Ruyue has confidence, as long as Meng Lun's mother is cured, he will definitely agree to help her.
And his mother also needs a better environment to recuperate, whether he wants to take care of his mother in Jingjiang Mansion, the capital of western Guangdong, or come to the capital.
When the time comes, there will be more evidence for his identity, which will make it more reasonable.
"Shi Niang, is you also a person from this village?"
Liu Ruyue looked embarrassed, "Yes and no." ”
"Why do you say that?"
"My grandmother (grandma) fell in love with a Miao man and was pregnant with my father, and Boss Kong also knows the situation over there...... Hey......" Liu Ruyue smiled bitterly, and glanced at Boss Kong with a bitter word.
Needless to say, other bosses who have close contacts with Miao villages also know that not all Miao villages are so easy to accept Han people.
Even if they are all from the west of Guangdong, they also do business with these merchants, but they don't have much friendship, and it is difficult to call them brothers and friends with the people in the village, just bartering for things.
There are very few bosses who can be friends with the people in the village.
Not to mention intermarriage with foreigners, most of the villages simply do not allow this to happen.
Miao Niangzi stepped forward with a deep feeling and poured a bowl of wine from the jar, took a sip, stuck out her tongue spicily, and there was water in her eyes, "I didn't expect your father to be the same as me, a child like us, once discovered, even if he was born just now, he will be thrown out of the village to fend for himself, he didn't strangle us directly, he is already merciful, and our lives depend on God's mercy." ”
Unexpectedly, Miao Niangzi also had such a past, and Liu Ruyue was very embarrassed to bring up her sadness.
But he could only nod apologetically, held back his tears, and said drunkly, "Well, yes, my father said the same thing."
He didn't know who A-Niang was, he was picked up and raised by an old dart master, and when he grew up, A-Dad always wanted to find Ah Ma, and finally found Meng Jiazhai, so he was able to recognize Grandma in private. ”
"But Daddy is not from Mengjiazhai, and he has to follow the old dart master to run darts, and he can't go often, so I ask Uncle Meng Lun to often bring some things for him, so we are more familiar."
Liu Ruyue knew that the story she made up would have a lot of flaws, and the temporary compilation would make people see the mistakes, so she didn't go into detail until the point, so as not to make people feel as if she was deliberately explaining her life experience.
In this way, it is better than doing nothing, and we will see you in the future.
These days, the people sent by the little madman to western Guangdong should also arrive.
Even if Lu Chengze sends someone to investigate in western Guangdong now, it is impossible to rush to him.
In addition, the various Miao villages in western Guangdong are not arbitrarily inquired by court spies, even if these bosses go over in person and take the goods, they will be ruthlessly driven out.
Mengjiazhai's treatment of outsiders is similar.
------Off topic------
Now the identity is an explanation, just make up the story, there are many flaws, but the back will be rounded, the three of them become tigers, outsiders don't know the situation inside each village at all, plus Liu Ruyue will act, and other things to corroborate.
Orange likes to have logic, so it won't be too big a bug, and will try to fix the bug and improve the "life experience".
