Today, I deliberately went back to my grandfather's house for a day of leisure, my brother will not take the imperial examination for the time being, and will find time to study general affairs, which greatly reduces Zilan's work pressure and gives her a lot more time to play.

Today, she specially brought her own treasured monkey wine to honor her grandfather's family, and gave the second grandfather and the third grandfather and other elders a jar, which was greatly appreciated by them, and it was much better than their own brewing.

"Grandmother, I brought you something good."

After entering the courtyard, Lan began to shout.

"My good granddaughter is here, what delicious food have you brought us?"

The old lady came out of the warm pavilion.

"Grandmother, I have brought my own monkey wine, it has been a few years, this is the best barrel, I have brought some for you to taste."

"Yes, then your grandfather will be very happy."

The old lady looked up and smiled.

"Sister, I also brought wine for the two of you, this is not easy to get drunk, and girls can drink it."

Zilan brought the wine brewed in the space, which tasted much better than the carefully brewed outside, and also had a good health effect.

"Really, it's better to be a sister, I'm thinking about drinking you."

Zhao Xuan'er said with a smile.

In the past two years, their sisters have also changed a lot, Zhao Xuaner settled down after thinking about it, and learned to calculate and manage money with the old lady with Shuhui.

The Xu family gradually assigned the housekeeping rights of the Hou Mansion to their sisters to experience, and after more than three years, it has been very effective, and the two of them are now also managing the shop grange alone, and they can take the housekeeper alone.

"You're thinking about good food."

Zilan snorted.

"Oops! Stingy, I collected some flower seeds from the south before, which I have never seen, and said that they came from the sea. I thought you might be interested, so I kept it for you. I can't say I don't care about you. ”

Zhao Xuan'er took her arm and shook it with a smile.

"Well, that's pretty much it, another purse."

Zilan proudly tilted her head and stretched out a finger to increase the price.

"Okay, here's one for you, lazy girl."

Zhao Xuan'er rolled her eyes angrily, her aunt and uncle went to Jiangnan, this girl didn't use needlework easily, and would rather give other gifts to the elders than be willing to do it.

Zilan shook her head embarrassedly, "My craftsmanship is not good, why bother to show it, it's not sincere to send something else." ”

Aggrieved pout.

"No, my granddaughter is the most filial."

The old lady immediately laughed and coaxed her.

"That's right, I'm also very filial, this monkey wine my grandfather and they all said it was good, you and grandpa they also tasted it, I promised you to like it, I specially brought you two jars, you can give gifts or use it at home."

"I don't need to give it away for the time being, I keep it for myself, and I'm reluctant to give it away."

The last time I gave the Queen Mother's birthday gift, she won the first prize again with her wine, and she also saved thousands of taels of silver, and the old lady was very happy.

As he was talking, Marquis Yang came back from the palace with a smile on his face.

"Grandpa, you've got something good, you're so happy."

Zilan ran up to help him sit down, laughing and joking.

"It's happier than good things, your father has won the emperor's praise in the court, and it is certain that he will be promoted when he comes back."

Yang Houye's face is bright, not to mention how happy.

"Really, great."

"Hey, why did you come back and get promoted, isn't it good to be promoted now?"

Zhao Xuan'er asked inexplicably.

"You don't understand, the fourth-grade official wants to be drafted, I don't want this son to be promoted, once you enter the palace draft, there are too many accidents, with your uncle's official position, your sister will have to be small even if she enters the backyard of the royal descendants, so how can it be done."

"Ah, and this one, I don't even know, so don't you have to choose to be promoted when you come back?"

Zhao Xuan'er really didn't know the joints of her head here, and she was taken aback when she heard it, in the palace, where is the place where ordinary people can go.

"Well, after the age of the draft, you don't need to be drafted, most people who don't want to enter the palace will use this trick, or get sick or exempt from the draft, escape the draft, the emperor doesn't love women and turns a blind eye."

Yang Houye explained with a smile.

"That's a good dare, my sister is so good, how can she be small. Would you rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine? ”

Zhao Xuan'er breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, as far as she was concerned, she had never thought of being small, let alone Song Zilan, it was absolutely impossible.

"Isn't that what you say, the wealth in the palace is full of blood."

The old lady sighed leisurely, she had seen too much.

Zhao Xuan'er didn't dare to speak anymore, but she and Zilan were good, so she naturally hoped that she could be happy, it was too terrible to be a child.

"Well, it won't cause you any trouble."

Zilan said with a frown.

"How come, it's not a big deal, it's really not good, I'll say it, say that you are weak and exempt from the election, it's just to ask the emperor for a favor, it's not in the way. I'm going to say that the emperor is still happy, and it's better to have a request than not to ask for it. ”

This is also the experience of Marquis Yang as an official and the tacit understanding between the emperor and the emperor. If you have no desire, you are strong, and the emperor doesn't need such a strong courtier without loopholes, it's terrible.

On the contrary, there are requirements but not too much, and the emperor likes it. It's like a slave in the family, some love money, some like stability, some are honest, and they are easy to control, and they don't need the master or you.

"I see, then I'm relieved."

At lunch, Zilan opened a jar of monkey wine, which has been brewed in the space for a long time, the wine has been viscous, the entrance is sweet, warm and comfortable down the throat, and the lower abdomen is warm, until the whole body is very comfortable and warm.

After a glass of wine, everyone couldn't stop praising it, "Good wine, Lan'er is amazing, this is even better than our restaurant." ”

Monkey wine is also sold in the incense building, the price is extremely high, only two taels of wine jugs have no other weight, a pot of wine is five taels of silver, sold every month, and it was robbed by the powerful early.

But who made Zilan's space brewing time different, it really has been this monkey wine for almost a hundred years, and in terms of the quality of the wine, it is definitely enough time.

"Hehe, I don't sell wine, the brewing time is enough, don't people say it, the wine cellar is one year and three years in the outside world. I've had a long time. ”

This is also the reason why the wine should be stored in the cellar, the wine will have a qualitative change, get rid of the fire and spicy taste, and become soft and mellow, which is the gift of time.

"Good wine, dad wants to give this to the emperor as a birthday gift in the unknown year?"

Yang Dong's happy opening was actually a casual remark.

"No, don't make this idea, the reason for sending wine is that the Song family has already made it, and only Lan'er can make this wine, do you want to cause trouble for her." This wine is not sold out, nor is it given as a gift, so let me know who caused disaster to Lan'er, and I will kill all of them. ”

Yang Houye's face changed suddenly, and he slammed the wine glass on the table, warning the whole family.

"Yes, I was confused for a while, I didn't think about it carefully, Dad is right, if people find out that Lan'er is good, it is indeed easy to make people worry, and it will be really troublesome at that time."

Yang Dong woke up and quickly apologized.
