Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 99 Yi Zhonghai is bleeding heavily, and the Xu family wants to make wine

When it came to going to the police station, Yi Zhonghai couldn't hold himself any longer.

You can no longer enter this police station.

When the time comes, take the matter out and analyze it again.

I didn't think much about it at the time, and just said something casually, just to cause trouble for Shazhu. I didn't expect that Shazhu didn't follow the routine and sent Xu Damao to the police station directly. I didn't expect that he would become a murder weapon.

I regretted it afterwards, and now I regret even more why I said that sentence in the first place.

If you go to the police station again, you will be convicted of a crime. Even if you have to squat for three to five months, your whole life will be ruined.

Although I feel sorry for the money, I feel even more sorry for the reputation I have accumulated throughout my life.

"Okay, since we have been neighbors for many years, I won't embarrass you. Let's get over it if you send me 1000 yuan worth of gold or ocean before the Spring Festival."

"A thousand dollars?"

After hearing this number, Yi Zhonghai still felt very distressed.

I came here today to ask He Yuzhu to pay a sum of money. Unexpectedly, he didn't get a penny, and he was given 1000 yuan.

"Is it a lot? Not much. Should I choose 1000 yuan or go to the police station and talk about it?"

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth: "I'll give it!"

"That's right, those who know current affairs are outstanding."

A handsome man?

Yi Zhonghai really wanted to cry, his family's little wealth was about to be wiped out.

Although Yi Zhonghai was reluctant, he still sent a thousand yuan worth of small yellow croaker and Dayang the next day.

"You have to write me an explanation first."

"What explanation?"

"Just never pursue that matter again."

"Okay, no problem."

He Yuzhu kept his word. He got 2000 yuan from this matter, which is equivalent to 5 years' salary of ordinary people, and he can buy a two-bedroom courtyard house.

No matter how much resentment there is, it can be made up for. As for Yi Zhonghai's resentment, He Yuzhu really doesn't let it go. As long as he dares to mess around, he can't be tricked to death.

He Yuzhu quickly wrote a letter of understanding to prove it. After Yi Zhonghai came out with this certificate, he couldn't help crying.

This piece of paper was actually worth 1000 yuan, plus the one thousand and fifty yuan given to Xu Wood before, the total was two thousand and five yuan.

This is really a huge loss.

He Yuzhu collected the money, then came out and said: "Xu Huizhen, let's go, my brother will take you to buy new year's goods today."

Of course, when you receive the money, you have to spend it freely. This money is just like picking it up for free. It happens to be the twelfth lunar month and we start to buy new year's goods.

People in Sijiucheng attach great importance to the New Year celebrations, which often begin in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. It will not be until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that the New Year atmosphere gradually fades away.

Regardless of whether you have money or not, the Chinese New Year is all about peace and auspiciousness, family reunion, and family peace.

Xu Huizhen asked: "Why are you so happy today? Did you find money?"

"That's about it. Don't ask about money. Can you go?"

"Okay, I'll go back and change clothes."

He Yuzhu also changed into a brand new cotton robe and mandarin jacket. After waiting for almost half an hour, Xu Huizhen was wearing a pink cotton robe with a large slanted front, which set off her pretty pink face like a blooming flower.

These clothes were all made in Chen Xueru's shop. I just got them yesterday. Today I just happened to wear new clothes and go play together.

"Does it look good?" Xu Huizhen saw He Yuzhu's eyes staring directly at her. She was secretly happy and a little shy at the same time. Her cheeks were slightly red and she couldn't help but ask.

"It looks good, but I suddenly don't want to go out to play."

Going out to play is not as comfortable as playing at home.

"Silly, let's go buy new year's goods."

Xu Huizhen took He Yuzhu out of the door, and the entire Yandai Xiejie was filled with a New Year atmosphere.

The shop fronts have been cleaned up, and there are some more vendors here, selling some items that are only available during the Chinese New Year, such as firecrackers, fireworks, rice cakes, stenciled door gods, Stove Lord Buddha statues, flowers for Buddha, and honey offerings. wait.

"Time flies so fast, it's almost the Chinese New Year in the blink of an eye." He Yuzhu sighed with emotion. It had been more than half a year since he traveled through time in early summer.

"Yes, at the beginning of the year I was still a little girl studying at home. In the blink of an eye, I also had my own tavern in the capital."

He Yuzhu quickly calmed down, and now that he is here, he can live here with peace of mind, and pulls Xu Huizhen away from Yandai Xiejie.

After entering the twelfth lunar month, every family in the old capital begins to prepare for the New Year, especially after the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The New Year is a big event. Before the New Year, you have to make a lot of preparations and buy a lot of things. Things to eat, use, wear, bring, play with, dry, fresh, raw, and cooked. These are collectively called New Year’s goods. .

Walking on the street, you can hear nursery rhymes from time to time.

"Twenty-three sticky melons, twenty-four cleaning days, twenty-five pushing millet, twenty-six buying meat, twenty-seven slaughtering a chicken, twenty-eight handfuls of dough, twenty-nine steaming buns, three Stay for ten nights, and twist and turn on New Year’s Day.”

The crisp children's voice floated past my ears, sounding so peaceful and happy. Yes, many adults may be tired of the Chinese New Year, but for children, the Chinese New Year is a great joy.

Xu Huizhen suddenly said: "It's broken. I forgot to bring the rainwater out."

"Don't spoil her either."

I don't know since when, Xu Huizhen started to care about He Yueyue. She took care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation carefully. The mistress felt relieved. Seeing that Xu Huizhen was doing things well, she gave Xu Huizhen the responsibility of taking care of He Yueyue.

"How can a brother like you be too harsh on your sister? Yu Yu is so good, but you are often dissatisfied."

"Okay, let's not talk about her when we come out."

"Okay, so what do you think we should buy?"

Xu Huizhen started counting with her fingers: "I've made all the clothes, there's no shortage of meat, and you've prepared a lot of daily necessities. Don't buy any of these three. Just buy some New Year's gifts, stove sacrifice supplies, firecrackers, etc."

He Yuzhu said: "Should I go to Dashilan or the temple fair to buy these things?"

It can be said that Dashilan has everything you need, and you can buy all these things, especially Quanyechang, with 180 shops selling everything.

"Let's go to the temple fair, it's lively there." Xu Huizhen said after thinking about it.

The closest one is the Guangdian Temple Fair.

Changdian refers to the vacant land outside Liulichang, an ancient cultural street in Beijing.

In the earliest times, it was called Haiwang Village in the Liao Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, a kiln for firing colored glaze was set up here. During the Qing Dynasty, the glaze kiln was moved to the Mentougou area in the west of Beijing. Only the street of the Liulichang and the factory store remained here. name.

Xu Huizhen said: "Don't coax me. The Changdian Temple Fair only gets busy after the New Year. It's better to wait until after the New Year before going."

"Really? I'm not familiar with it." He Yuzhu said.

"You are just lazy. Today is the day of Longfu Temple Fair. Let's go to Longfu Temple."

Xu Huizhen took the lead and then said: "There are more than 40 temple fairs open every month inside and outside the capital. There are five of the most famous ones. Longfu Temple, which opens on the 5st and [-]th, and Xuanwai Xixie, which opens on the third day of the year. There is the Earth Temple on the street, the Huashi Temple of Huo Temple opens on the fourth day of the year, the Baita Temple on the inner street opens on the [-]th and [-]th, and the Huguo Temple opens on the [-]th and [-]th.”

He Yuzhu calculated the lunar calendar and found that today is the day of the Longfu Temple Fair.

He Yuzhu was not riding a bicycle, so he stretched out his hand to stop a three-wheeled rickshaw. Before liberation, there were many human-powered rickshaws, the ones with people running in front and dragging two wheels behind, the kind pulled by Xiangzi the camel. There are not many of these now.

Nowadays, they are all bicycles, with a rickshaw towed behind them. You can pedal directly in front, which saves energy.

The back was still in the style of a rickshaw. He Yuzhu helped Xu Huizhen get up and sit down, now sitting next to each other.

The main reason is that the width of the vehicle is not enough, and the winter clothes are relatively thick. Two people can barely sit there, with their bodies and thighs close to each other. Fortunately, the clothes are thicker, so we can get over it after a while.

"Go to Longfu Temple."

"Okay."

The weather is sunny today, and the fiery red sun is shining warmly on my body, which makes me feel very comfortable.

When I arrived at Longfu Temple, I saw a sea of ​​people inside and outside the temple. Ladies gathered, literati, people from the market, and farmers from the suburbs all came here to attend the temple fair. This was a phenomenon that was not seen in other temple fairs.

The main reason is that the temple fair of Longfu Temple is the largest temple fair in Beijing. This temple fair has the largest number of goods and is complete.

There are all kinds of snacks outside the mountain gate. He Yuzhu bought two bunches of candied haws, and the two of them entered the mountain gate while eating the candied haws. The courtyard inside the mountain gate mainly sells daily mountain goods, and the front hall mainly contains stalls of antiques and treasures.

After the second courtyard, there are daily general merchandise, clothing, shoes and hats, jewelry, cloth, etc., Wang Mazi’s knives and scissors, Jin Xiangzhang’s hair combing grate, Gangdao Liu’s tea fruit knives, Sanheju’s wigs and other items that children like. Plant toys.

"Buy a rag doll for Yu Yu?"

"Let's take a look inside first, and then we'll buy something when we go back."

The backyard is the pagoda courtyard, where there are many food stalls and small theaters for performing folk operas.

Whether it's Peking Opera, storytelling, drums, or cross talk, Sanxian has it all.

The two of them were actually just outsiders of opera, so they just wanted to listen to the excitement. They didn't like listening to those literate people who could recite a sentence for more than 10 minutes.

I just listened to the crosstalk talker for a while, gave some small money, and then went to watch a Wu Sheng Beijing opera.

These theaters don't charge tickets. The main thing is to take a tea tray and go around in a circle after a performance. As the saying goes, the rich will support the show with money, and the poor will support the show alone.

Even if you don't have money, you can pretend not to see it, and they won't bother much.

Throwing 5 cents, 8 cents, 1 cents and 2 cents into the tea tray, in exchange for thanking you profusely, this is their way of survival.

Although the place is very large, it is still not as popular as the Tianqiao. The two of them just wanted to have fun. After playing for a while, they started walking around the temple.

At noon, we ate fried liver, donkey rolling, jujube crisps, sesame seed buns and other specialty snacks at a roadside stall.

Not to mention, it tastes pretty good.

After eating and drinking, and resting for a while, the two of them went to buy gifts.

The east-west corridor of the temple is a market for flowers, birds, fish and insects, and there are many vendors selling old books, calligraphy and paintings.

He Yuzhu's appraisal level has improved a lot recently, but unfortunately the things here are very low-level, and there are not many good goods.

After picking out a few ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, Xu Huizhen took her to pick out gifts for Yuyu.

I bought some hairbands, rouge and gouache, tin frogs, and wooden carts.

He Yuzhu could only use it as a labor force, carrying large and small bags of things in his hands, and took a three-wheeled rickshaw back to Yandai Xiejie. Yuyu, who was already on vacation, was the most happy, and only her sister Huizhen was in her eyes.

As soon as He Yuzhu sat down to take a sip of water, he saw Yan Bugui standing in front of the door, looking at the sign, and then walked straight in.

"Uncle Yan is here. It's a rare visitor. Please take a seat."

Yan Bugui said a few polite words, sat down, drank tea, and then said: "Zhuzi, let me tell you some good news first."

"Good things? I just like to hear good things. What good things are they?"

Yan Bugui said very proudly: "Your uncle, I am now the uncle in charge of the hospital."

"Oh, that's really good news. Congratulations to Uncle Yan."

"You're welcome, we share the same joy."

After the two were polite, He Yuzhu asked: "Uncle Yan, are you here to tell me the news today?"

"No." Yan Bugui said with a smile, "I have something I want to discuss with you."

He Yuzhu now understood Yan Bugui's operation. He must have something to ask of himself, so he first revealed his identity as the master of the hospital, which could improve his status.

Then if you open your mouth and ask yourself to do something, your chances of success will be much higher.

He Yuzhu ignored these little thoughts and said, "Uncle Yan, you are being polite to me. If you have anything to do, just say it. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse."

He had already fallen out with Yi Zhonghai, and his relationship with Liu Haizhong seemed to be average. Since Yan Bugui came to visit him, he would help him as long as the problem was not serious.

"It's nothing big. I just put the things in your shop and I will move them out in the morning."

"Thing? What thing?" He Yuzhu was confused.

"It's just a set of tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper and inkstones."

After Yan Bugui explained it, He Yuzhu understood.

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, Yan Bugui, a teacher and a calligraphy enthusiast, has had the habit of writing Spring Festival couplets and selling them in this Yandai Xiejie.

Before, tables, chairs and other things had to be carried back to the courtyard every day, and then brought back in the morning.

The distance between the two places is not close, nor far, but about 500 meters. Each time, I have to make several trips to move my things back.

It happened that He Yuzhu opened a braised meat shop here, and Yan Bugui wanted to wait until the evening when the stall was closed to put all the things at He Yuzhu's side, thus saving the need to carry them back and forth.

"Okay, I thought it was a big deal. I promised you this."

Yan Bugui quickly thanked him: "Then I'll thank Zhu Zhu. I'll write you some couplets later."

"Uncle Yan, you're welcome."

Yan Bugui turned around and took the tables, chairs, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and a large pile of red paper, and placed them in the room in the backyard.

The next morning, after breakfast, Yan Bugui brought his boss Yan Jiecheng over to set up a stall. It was not far away. There were two shops in front of the door, with an intersection left and right on the roadside in the middle, and they started shouting.

He Yuzhu helped arrange the decorations. Just when he was about to chat, he saw Xu Huizhen's elder brother driving a donkey cart to deliver wine.

But what was different from usual was that there was a middle-aged couple in the car, and a little girl was following them.

Judging from the face of the middle-aged man, it can be said that they are carved from the same mold as Xu Hui. Could it be that these are Xu Hui's real parents?

He Yuzhu suddenly felt like he was chasing a duck, but since people were coming, he couldn't avoid them, so he hurried forward to greet them.

I met Xu Hui, Xu Huizhen’s brother.

Xu Hui smiled and said: "Zhu Zhu, let me introduce you. These are my parents and my cousin Xu Huizhi." Xu Hui didn't introduce Zhu Zhu. It seemed that he had introduced them to them before.

He Yuzhu quickly shouted respectfully: "Hello, uncle, hello, aunt, and cousin. You have worked hard all the way. Please come in."

"You are the pillar. As expected, you are honest and reliable at first glance. Not bad."

"Well, he is indeed a good boy."

Xu Huizhen’s parents said a few polite words.

Xu Huizhi was still a little girl. She was relatively thin and had not started to grow yet. The clothes she wore were all patched. After entering the city, she seemed a little shy. She held her aunt's hand and just looked at her with two big black eyes. With He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu is actually very disgusted with this little girl. In the TV series, Xu Huizhen is about to give birth. As a cousin, she can still hook up with He Yongqiang.

Every time when he couldn't survive, he came to Xu Huizhen and asked them to help him overcome the difficulties, as if he was born to owe them.

But she is still a little girl now, and He Yuzhu doesn't bother to pay attention to it. He should take care of Xu Huizhen's parents first.

He Yuzhu invited the three people into the shop first, and Xu Hui hurried to the back door to unload the wine. This was the last wine delivery during the Chinese New Year, and no more wine would be delivered until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Entering the tavern, Xu Huizhen hurriedly welcomed her out, hugged her parents and cried bitterly. Although she usually went home once or twice a month, this was the first time her parents came to the city to see her.

After a while of commotion, Xu Huizhen took her parents to the back room to talk. After a while, she came out and said to He Yuzhu, "I want to keep my parents here for one night. Do you think you can do that?"

"That's right. We'll live here until the Chinese New Year. I've asked Dayong to prepare it. I'll make a few specialty dishes later and let the uncle and aunt have a taste of my craftsmanship."

"Well, Brother Zhuzhu, you are so kind." Xu Huizhen didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly there was a little shyness on her face.

The two elders were very satisfied with He Yuzhu himself. After all, in just one year, he grew from an apprentice to a chef and opened two shops.

Although the house over the front door is a rented one, this Yandai Xiejie is a shop he bought himself. In the past, he could even be called Mr. He, the boss.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, Xu Huizhen's mother just kept praising He Yuzhu's good craftsmanship and praising Xu Huizhen's good fortune.

Xu Huizhen was usually very generous, but at this time, her face was filled with shyness, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look at He Yuzhu.

After finally waiting until lunch was over, Xu Huizhen took her parents and cousins ​​to go shopping. He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and saw that he had passed the first level.

"Brother, Sister Huizhen doesn't take me with her when she goes out, why don't you take me to play?" Yuyu said, shaking He Yuzhu's arm.

"Okay, I'll buy you whatever you want."

"I want to buy firecrackers, a hundred rings, marlezi, two kicks, and flowers." He Yuyu said excitedly.

He Yuzhu was a little speechless. What Yuyu was talking about were all types of fireworks. How could a little girl just think about buying firecrackers?

"Shall I buy you some pots of daffodils, or goldfish?"

"Okay, but we can't miss the firecrackers."

"Do you dare to let it go?"

"I don't dare, but I dare to look!" He Yuyu said, "Young ladies don't even dare to look."

"Okay, let's buy them all."

If He Yuyu really dared to let it go, he would not dare to buy it for him anyway, so as not to set the house on fire. After all, the doors, windows and pillars of the house are now made of wood.

He Yu did not go far with the rain. He first bought daffodils in bud on the street in front of the door, and then selected plum blossoms, emerald cypresses, pine, bamboo and plum blossoms, single trees to welcome the spring, hydrangeas, asparagus and asparagus. , Acorus and other bonsais.

If you buy too much, just ask the clerk to deliver it to the store.

Goldfish in Beijing are usually divided into two categories: grass carp and dragon eye fish.

Grass carp is the small goldfish sold along the street. It is a different species of carp, which is also a carp.

As for the dragon-eye fish, which was too expensive and didn’t have any in Xiejie itself, He Yuzhu just let Yu Yu catch a dozen of them in the goldfish pond, put them in a glass tank, and He Yuzhu took them home.

I even forgot to buy fireworks and firecrackers.

He Yuzhu had no choice but to buy a lot of them by himself. During the Chinese New Year, how could anyone not set off firecrackers and fireworks?

Xu Huizhen took her parents and sister out to play for the past two days, while He Yuzhu had to stay at home and watch the store.

However, he hardly works and has assistants to do the daily operations.

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, He Yuzhu's business is much better, and his sales every day are several times that of a normal day.

He Yuzhu came out with a handful of melon seeds and stood beside Yan Bugui to watch him write couplets.

There are also many written couplets placed on the ground in front of the table, but some people still have a new idea and want to write their favorite words on the spot.

After reading for a while, I realized that Yan Bugui made a lot of money, [-] cents for a small couplet, [-] cents for a medium one, and [-] cents for a large one.

If you want to buy a "Fu" character alone, you can buy a small "Fu" character for only three cents.

"Zhuzi, what do you think of my calligraphy?" What Yan Bugui can show is good handwriting, which is unique among the courtyard houses.

If this is bad, you can't go out and write Spring Festival couplets for others in this part of the capital.

"It's quite good, dragons and phoenixes are dancing. I wouldn't be able to write such good calligraphy without decades of skills."

"But, think about those days, I had to write 1000 words every day. At that time."

When Yan Bugui was a child, his family was relatively wealthy, so he was forced by his father to attend a private school, and later went to Western school, that is, junior high school and high school.

Yan Bugui was also bored and talked about writing with He Yuzhu. He was deliberately showing off, and then he gave some advice.

A system message suddenly appeared in front of He Yuzhu's eyes:

[You have learned a new profession - Shuchun, level lv1]

He Yuzhu was a little confused. He didn't do anything, so how could he realize a new career?

Shuchun?

What is this for?

He Yuzhu asked in confusion: "Uncle Yan, do you know what Shuchun does?"

"Ouch, Zhuzhu, I didn't expect you to take this to test me?" Yan Bugui did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically first.

"Uncle Yan, please stop trying to litigate and just talk about it."

Yan Bugui said: "What I do now is called Shuchun. Are you using this to test me?"

"Aren't you just a couplet seller? Who took the test for you?"

"You are still pretending to be confused. The street stalls and all walks of life do not have separate names. Only those of us who write couplets have a separate name, which is Shuchun."

Yan Bugui looked arrogant: "Are you still using this to test me?"

Yan Bugui was very proud: "How can I not know this name after working for so many years?"

Only then did He Yuzhu understand that Shuchun's job was to write couplets for others before the Spring Festival.

It's funny when you think about it. Other walks of life don't have separate names. They all talk about firecracker sellers, cloth sellers, and toy sellers. They do whatever they sell.

Only this one who sells couplets has a special name, called Shuchun, and he has become much taller in an instant. He must have been poor in the past and couldn't wipe out his dignity, so he gave this industry a unique name.

"I really don't know, I just heard someone mention it."

"You."

Yan Bugui didn't believe what He Yuzhu said at all, but he didn't have much to say.

He Yuzhu looked at Yan Bugui's calligraphy again, and could already see some clues. Although it looked good, it was a bit dull, and the rest could not be seen.

Although He Yuzhu has obtained the entry level, it is only an entry level. The handwriting he writes is not ugly at best, and cannot be compared with Yan Bugui's handwriting.

He Yuzhu was also surprised. He was watching Yan Bugui write couplets, but the foundation was still calligraphy. Couldn't he just learn calligraphy? Why did he give himself a career as a scholar? No matter how good he was, he didn't expect it. During the Spring Festival, I write couplets for others to live by.

Yan Bugui's stall not only sells Spring Festival couplets, but also couplets used to worship stoves and ancestors. He Yuzhu didn't bother to take advantage of Yan Bugui. He took out red paper from the house, cut it, and then used his brush to draw pictures on it. I wrote a set.

"Okay, Zhu Zhu, I didn't expect that you can't write well with pencil, but this calligraphy written upside down is very neat."

"That's right, I've also practiced it."

He Yuzhu was very proud. He wrote these two sets of couplets and directly added 4 Shuchun experience points.

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "You said you were fat and you started breathing."

He Yuzhu sent what he had written back, thought about it, and went out to the stationery store.

"The boss gave me a set of wolf brushes and some copybooks."

"Boss He bought this for his sister?"

He Yuzhu was about to say that he bought it for himself, but then he changed his mind: "Yes, it is also beneficial to let my sister practice calligraphy at a young age. Bring a large brush to save me having to buy it later."

"Okay, here are the "Jiucheng Palace", "Stone Drum Inscriptions", "Cao Quan Stele", "Zheng Wengong Stele", etc. Which one do you want?"

"Just take them all and let my sister pick a font she likes."

He Yuzhu bought a copybook, took pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and returned to his study.

Covered with straw paper, took the newly bought brush, dipped it in ink, and started practicing.

He Yuzhu didn't believe it. He could master other skills as long as he wrote more calligraphy, and he should master calligraphy.

Why should I replace that Shuchun's skill?

Xu Huizhen came back and saw the light in the study room was on. She opened the door and came in and said, "Brother Zhuzhu, I have something to discuss with you."

"Hey, your handwriting is pretty good and you can still read it."

He Yuzhu said with some dissatisfaction: "What are you talking about? How can you still read it?"

"How good do you think your handwriting is? It's far worse than the uncles outside who write couplets."

"I am a handwriting student. I can write better than him if I practice again."

"Bragging, I don't believe it."

"We'll see next year." He Yuzhu just wanted to change Shuchun's career into calligraphy on a whim, and asked Yuyu to start practicing calligraphy and focus on training this younger sister.

At He Yuyu's age, it would be good if he could go to college when he grows up. Even if he doesn't get into it, there are various vocational and technical schools where he can learn a trade.

He Yuzhu asked: "What do you want to say?"

"I forgot even if you didn't ask. I want to discuss it with you, do you think it's okay?"

Xu Huizhen said: "You also know that my father and my brother both work in the winery."

"Yes, do you want to open a tavern in the capital?"

"It's not about opening a tavern. I want to make wine and open a winery."

"Wine wine?" He Yuzhu was very surprised.

"Yeah, my dad started thinking about it when he saw that the warehouse in the back room was idle."

In the past, the back room of a courtyard house of a wealthy family usually served as a kitchen and warehouse. He Yuzhu has always used the back room as a warehouse for storing grain.

Xu Huizhen's father has been working in a wine shop all his life. In addition to being taken out by his daughter in the past two days, he has been traveling in the capital. He also saw a lot of waste in the back room, which made him feel a little distressed.

Although they didn't make it clear, they were well aware of the situation between Xu Huizhen and He Yuzhu, and the contact they had in the past two days was also correct. He Yuzhu was very satisfied.

Although he has no parents, He Yuzhu has a skill far beyond that of an ordinary chef, and he also has a three-storey shop. Such a son-in-law can't be found even with a lantern.

So I felt a little uneasy. I came from an ordinary family and had no money and power, so I just wanted to help my daughter more.

It's better to be a master than to be a master, and besides, he can only make wine, so Xu Huizhen's father thought about it for a long time and wanted to use the back room to build a small winery to make wine.

Of course, this should be in the name of the daughter. When she gets married in the future, she can give Xu Huizhen a generous dowry.

"You mean you want to use the back room to make wine? Is that possible?" He Yuzhu asked.

Xu Huizhen said: "It can be done. Didn't I say it before? Less than three kilograms of grain can make one kilogram of wine."

He Yuzhu then remembered that when he first opened the tavern, the protagonist was also greedy for the high profits of wine making. After all, sorghum only cost one third of a pound. In other words, the material cost of a pound of sorghum wine was only [-] cents. Including other costs, it was estimated that it would be no more than [-] cents. More than [-] cents.

You must know that it is better to use 2-3 years old grain for wine making. The price of old grain is cheaper than that of new grain.

However, the wholesale price of sorghum wine from the winery is around 4 cents, which shows how much profit the winery makes.

As an old man who has been making wine in a brewery all his life, Xu Huizhen's father is certainly aware of the huge profits in this industry. Before, he had no way to do it. At most, he brewed some wine at home and drank it himself. But if he brewed too much and then sold it to outsiders, he would definitely Suppressed by the wine shop owner.

This isn't the first time they've done this.

Now Xu Huizhen's tavern has opened up, and it can sell hundreds of kilograms of wine every month. In addition, there is room behind it to build a small winery, so that it can produce and sell it on its own.

Xu Huizhen told her father's thoughts and asked: "Brother Zhuzhu, what do you think?"

He Yuzhu asked: "Then the uncle will stay here from now on?"

"No, my brother is staying. He is also a skilled worker, so there is no problem in making wine."

"Is it enough to just use the back room? Is there enough space?"

"The space is enough. My brother wants to live here. If you have any objections, then rent a room outside."

"I don't have any objection. There are plenty of rooms anyway."
