Chapter 284: Doubts
Jiang Yan missed such an important business opportunity, and regretted in her heart, so she naturally wrote a letter to complain to Xie Jingxing, who knew that she received a reply from him soon after, saying that he could help, they were rich in grapes in Yunzhou, and he could find someone to help her make wine.
Jiang Yan also knows a little about Yunzhou, doesn't she say that the grain there is not good to grow?
It is written in the regional chronicle that Yunzhou, where Xie Jingxing is located, is a poor place with barren land, the same seeds and the same hard work, the output there is not as good as other regions, and the grain grown hard every year will be enough to fill the stomach, and there is nothing left over every year, let alone selling grain for money.
I didn't say there were grapes there.
Jiang Yan recalled with her thin geographical knowledge that Yunzhou was close to Beidi, that is, where the Western Regions was, and if you look at it according to the map of China, the temperature and climate are suitable, as if it is indeed suitable for growing grapes.
However, Jiang Yan didn't know if her self-brewing skills would be successful here, after all, she used a glass vat, and if she wanted to produce it on a large scale, she would definitely have to replace it with a wooden barrel, and issues such as sealing should also be considered.
Jiang Yan thought about it carefully, wrote down the steps and precautions for winemaking, and said the plan to cooperate in running a winery, and then sealed it and sent it out.
At the beginning, she and Xie Jingxing cooperated in the sweater and down jacket workshop, and they also provided a way to be the shopkeeper.
Because she really doesn't spend much money in Jiafu, Jiang Yan doesn't pay much attention to this matter, she still has confidence in Xie Jingxing's character, and he has not lost a penny of his income in the past two years into a silver ticket for her. Besides, there is no need to be greedy for her money.
Life in Jiafuli can be described as a few years like a day, and there are no new changes at all.
On this day, Jiang Yan heard that Jia Lian had returned from Ping'an Island.
Jia Lian didn't bother to freshen up when he came back, the first thing he did was to report to Jia Yu, Jia Yu was also anxious about this matter, and he had been waiting in the study for a long time.
When Jia Lian asked An, Jia Yu asked him anxiously, "What did the envoy of Ping'an Zhou say about that matter?" ”
Jia Lian said with a smile: "My son is fortunate not to be dishonored, the Lord has already agreed, he and the Zheng family have already met, and he also asked his son to go down in October, saying that the first batch happened to come out around there, and let his son go to see it." ”
Jia Yu Fuxu said with satisfaction: "If you let you go, you will also participate, and our efforts these days have not been in vain." Even if the Wang family and the uncle's family marry, we are no worse than there. ”
Jia Lian was surprised: "The Wang family and the uncle's family are married? When was this? I didn't hear any movement. ”
Jia Yu said with interest: "Even a few days ago, your daughter-in-law was sick, and it is estimated that the news of the Wang family has not been delivered. ”
Compared with the younger sister and the niece, of course, the younger sister is closer, and there is a concubine in the second room, and Wang Ziteng has always been closer to the second room in the second room. It's no wonder that Jia Yu is satisfied with him. But who let the prince have a chance, he is the only one in the four major families who is still in charge of the soldiers, and Jia Yu can only endure it when he sees that he is not pleasing to the eye.
Jia Lian saw that Jia Yu didn't talk about sex, so he didn't dare to say any more, so he said goodbye.
He went to tell Wang Xifeng about some things on the road, and after staying at home for two days, he said that there was something outside, and he began to stay home at night again.
I also knew that he must have gone to Second Sister You's side. He met Liu Xianglian on the way to Ping'an Zhou, and set up a family affair for him and Third Sister You.
Jiang Yan counted the date, Jia Lian came back, and Liu Xianglian should be back soon, so he paid special attention to Jia Baoyu's movements, for fear that he would not pay attention, he went to see Liu Xianglian and asked him to withdraw from the marriage. Third Sister You committed suicide when she said she committed suicide, and she was half a minute late and she couldn't be saved.
After Liu Xianglian and Xue Pan separated, they went to visit an aunt in the south of him, he was not young, and there was such a lone seedling left in the family, and his aunt would inevitably have to worry about his relatives.
Liu Xianglian was already an engaged person, and when she saw his aunt asking, she told Jia Lian about being a matchmaker, and also reassured her old man's heart.
Aunt Liu frowned when she heard this, Liu Xianglian was used to being casual, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with Jia Lian's approach, Aunt Liu, a traditional woman's family, heard him say that the family affair was given in the roadside hotel, and she was already dissatisfied with this family affair in her heart.
She listened patiently to Liu Xianglian's words, and thought for a moment before saying: "It stands to reason that this family affair has been decided, and you have given all the tokens, so I shouldn't say anything." But we have only one man left in the Liu family, and you shouldn't be so hasty in your family affairs. ”
She asked Liu Xianglian, "How is your relationship with Na Jia Gongzi?" ”
Liu Xianglian said: "It's just mediocre, I am close to his cousin." ”
Aunt Liu said: "The relationship is mediocre, why is he thinking about your relatives?" As soon as you say that you want to find relatives, there is a beautiful woman waiting for you. On the road, I was busy and had to settle down again and again, could it be that the female family couldn't catch up with the male family, let alone be a stunning beauty. ”
Liu Xianglian was also puzzled by his aunt's words, and regretted that she had fainted after drinking a few glasses of wine, and even gave away the ancestral sword. Otherwise, there is room for reversal.
When Aunt Liu saw his look, she knew that he also regretted it in her heart, and comforted: "But I can't say for sure, maybe people just like your character." You go back and inquire carefully, if it is really not a good match, you will say that I have already set a family business for you here, and the words of the elders cannot be disobeyed, so I have to retreat over there. Of course, if we think too much, it would be great. ”
Liu Xianglian already had doubts in her heart, she couldn't stay at his aunt's house, she was going to play in this place, but now she was no longer interested, and after a few days, she got up and went to the capital.
Liu Xianglian went to see Xue Pan first when she returned to Beijing, first, they were already sworn brothers, and second, he thought that Xue Pan was not less involved with Jia Lian, and he should know something about his second room. Who knew that Xue Pan fell ill in bed, but it made him difficult to ask.
I heard Xue Pan say that Aunt Xue had already bought him the things he needed to get married, and she was waiting for him to come back and choose a date. Liu Xianglian didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only thank Aunt Xue.
Early the next morning, Jia Baoyu received a report from the little guy outside, saying that Uncle Liu was back and was waiting for the second master in the study outside.
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he was overjoyed, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, Liu Xianglian finally came back, he quickly changed his clothes and went out to see him.
Jiang Yan excused herself to go to the kitchen and quietly went out of the garden.
