Chapter 161 Transition
The wedding of Lv Erniang and Song Yuan was very grand and successful. Although Lv Xianger encountered some unhaughty at the wedding banquet, it had nothing to do with Lv Erniang and Song Yuan. In order to let Lv Erniang stay in the Duke's Mansion at ease, Lv Xianger specially instructed Huo Qingqing not to tell Song Yuan and Lv Erniang about what happened in the side hall.
However, when Lv Hong and the three of them sat in Xiaowu and returned to Lv's house. Facing the empty house, the three of them immediately dissipated their previous happiness and became depressed. Although that night, there was a mother-in-law cooking at home, and a little maid who took care of Lv Xianger and Chaoxia. There were also more people, the three of them never had any mood to laugh. Even when she went to the winery the next day to discuss the opening, Lv Xianger didn't go because she was not feeling well. It was not until the third day that Lv Xianger picked up some spirit and went to the workshop accompanied by Chaoxia, Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao.
As for Lv Hong, he has been arranged by Song Yuan for a long time. Every day, Huo Qingsong takes him to Yulinwei for training. It can also be said that Song Yuan took advantage of the power in his hand and walked a back door for Lv Hong, making him a little ready to go to the exam. Although Chaoxia is not as sad as Lv Hong and Lv Xianger's brothers and sisters, she also doesn't smile all day long, and even speaks much less.
Song Yuan once came to see the three of them when he was out, and he also saw that the three were not used to Lv Erniang's absence. Song Yuan, who was helpless, could only secretly let Huo Qingqing and Huo Qingsong accompany the three. However, in order to stay in the house at ease, Song Yuan did not dare to tell her about the changes of the three people. Fortunately, Lv Erniang was taking over the affairs of the state office, and she was covered up by Song Yuan and didn't ask much.
"Uncle Mu Sheng, do you know the owner of the winery in Beijing?" With Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao, Lv Xianger's mood gradually improved, and she also mentioned her spirit to deal with the affairs of the winery.
Yuan Musheng, who was sitting in the reception room with Lv Xianger, had been waiting for Lv Xianger to mention this for a long time, and said very diligently, "Little lady, don't worry, I have already passed through all the large and small wine places in Beijing. Although some winery is hostile to Piaoxiang Winery, most people are polite to me on the surface.
"In this case, you will write the invitations of these wineshops in person and send them out in person." Lv Xianger nodded and said, "Yes, I think that those wineshops in Jiangling Mansion can also make soju, which should also be spread to the capital. When sending the invitation post, you will also reveal it a little. If the winery of the capital and even the Zhou Dynasty wants to make soju, you can also discuss it like Jiangling Mansion.
"Little lady, do you really want to spread the soju process all over the Zhou Dynasty?" Yuan Musheng was very surprised, but he also admired Lv Xianger's demeanor. Not all people can still 'sell' it with this unique craftsmanship.
Lv Xianger smiled at Yuan Musheng and whispered, "Uncle Musheng, this is the capital. If I hold on to the soju, I will cause trouble. Although you can go to the Guogong Mansion if something happens to the Piaoxiang Winery, the Duke of Song in Beijing is not the most 'harmful' person.
"The little lady thinks about the long-term, I don't think so much." Yuan Musheng was shocked when he thought that yesterday, the second prince celebrated his eldest son with a full moon and posted a post to Piaoxiang Wine House.
Although the second prince just wanted to buy some wine from the Piaoxiang Winery, he was not getting closer to Lv Xianger. Yuan Musheng has been a shopkeeper for many years. How could he not see the intention of the second prince? But he also learned from the newly passed away carpenter Yuan that it looks good on the surface, but in fact it is dangerous. At Lv Xianger's young age, she saw through these. How could Yuan Musheng not be convinced?
Lv Xianger looked at the style of the invitation in her hand, frowned slightly, and said, "Uncle Mu Sheng, these invitations are too ordinary, although gorgeous, they are very flamboyant. We'd better customize it specially, which is elegant and fresh.
"Okay. I'll go to see the food later and customize it. When Yuan Musheng heard what Lv Xianger said, he also felt that this invitation was okay for his peers. If it were a higher character, I'm afraid it would be ridiculous.
After saying these things, Yuan Musheng discussed with Lv Xianger about the unexpected situations and solutions that might occur on the opening day, and then took a little guy named Huang Chuan out. Near this shop, Lv Xianger rented a yard for grain. The raw grain specially used to purchase low-priced grain and store it to facilitate brewing will not be out of stock.
Because it is stored grain, Yuan Musheng will look at it every day for safety. It's not that he doesn't trust the guards, but that he is afraid that something will happen to the grain and affect the reputation of the restaurant. This is what Yuan Musheng has encountered in Qingshi County, and he has long remembered it in his heart.
Yuan Musheng left the shop, and Lv Xianger went to the front to look at Wang Gui again before walking to the backyard. In the backyard, the stove was smoking, and Tie Geer and another little guy named Zhang Shu were distilling soju. After Lv Xianger's special guidance for a few days, Tie Geer has mastered the fire, and there are still some things to pay attention to. Nowadays, Tie Geer can distil wine alone, which really makes Lv Xianger feel much more relaxed. What makes Lv Xianger worry most is that with Tie Geer, she can distil the soju at any time, and Lv Xianger doesn't have to stay in the winery all day long.
And Tie Ge'er was personally guided by Lv Xianger. Needless to say, he has completely regarded Lv Xianger as a benefactor who can die for him. When distilling soju, it is also a twelve-point focus, and I dare not make any small mistake. Lv Xianger saw the serious Tie Geer from afar, who was completely unaffected by Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao standing outside the door, and couldn't help nodding.
Walking next to Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao, Lu Xianger looked at the two and said with a smile, "You have been watching for more than an hour. Don't you have enough?"
"Ah, it's Xiang'er." Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao heard Lv Xianger's voice and felt that they had been standing for a long time and a little tired.
However, Wen Yao still looked surprised: "Xiang'er, even after watching it for an hour, I also feel that the 'distiller' is amazing. Unexpectedly, those yellow wines are as clear as water. Xiang'er, compared with you, I'm really not a talented girl.
"Sister Yaoer, Xiang'er is not a 'talent' woman, but a 'rich' woman." With Huo Qingqing's virtual words, Wen Yao couldn't help laughing with Huo Qingqing.
Lv Xianger glanced at Huo Qingqing and said andly, "Qingqing, don't worry, when you get married, my 'rich' girl will definitely give you a lot of money."
"Xiang'er, you laugh at me again." Huo Qingqing stamped her feet, threw them away and walked into the room. Lv Xianger secretly laughed with Wen Yao, and then followed Huo Qingqing's footsteps.
Huo Qingqing has reached the marriage, but she hasn't been married yet. This is worried about the wet nurse Zheng. The Huo family now has only Huo Qingsong's brother and sister, but there is no one of them. Zheng, who saw Song Yuandu getting married, was even more anxious. The next day, he began to inquire about the young prince and forcibly took Huo Qingqing to the party. Huo Qingqing is now only looking forward to who will find her, let her stay outside for a day, and then go back to the general's mansion in the evening.
Compared with Huo Qingqing, Wen Yao, who is one year older than her, is very comfortable, because she has an older brother, Wen Song, who is not married. After Wen Song didn't make a marriage, Wen Yao could be free for a while. Since that day, the idea of making a deep friendship with Lv Xianger rose in the Guogongfu, and Wen Yao came to the Lv family the next day.
By getting acquainted with Lv Xianger, Wen Yao was unwilling to go to the party held by talented women in Beijing. Although talking about poetry is Wen Yao's hobby, Mrs. Wen has told her. After becoming a relative, poetry is just a condiment for life. The most important thing is to be in charge of the family, manage money, and get along with others. Wen Yao also contacted Lv Xianger with this purpose. As a result, she was deeply happy to hear Mrs. Wen's words. Therefore, after Huo Qingqing, Lv Xianger had another 'best friend', Wen Yao.
As soon as the three entered the room, a burst of heat came to their faces. Huo Qingqing and Wen Yao felt cold at this time and immediately walked to the charcoal plate. Now the weather is getting colder and colder day by day. Lv Xianger, who loves to enjoy, bought charcoal early and raised the charcoal basin to keep warm.
Chaoxia, who was sitting at the table reading a book, knew that the three of them had come back when she heard the noise. She immediately poured a cup of hot tea for the three of them: "Drink some hot tea, and it will warm up in a moment."
"Thank you, Sister Chaoxia." Speaking of which, Wen Yao was really a little thirsty, so she sat opposite Chaoxia and drank tea. Huo Qingqing looked at Chaoxia and said with a smile, "Sister Chaoxia, I heard from my brother yesterday that the fourth prince will come back tomorrow."
As soon as Lv Xianger and Wen Yao heard this, they turned their heads and looked at Chaoxia. Asaxia was watched by the three people, so she threw down the book in her hand and said angrily, "Come back as soon as you come back. I'm afraid he can't do it. I don't believe that he dares to rob the people. If he really dares, I won't show mercy."
"Sister Chaoxia, Your Highness the Fourth Prince is the prince. You'd better be patient. When you meet the person you like, Your Highness should not do too much. Wen Yao blinked her eyes and gently persuaded Chaoxia to get married as soon as possible.
Originally, Wen Yao didn't know that the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin was pestering Chaoxia. But at the wedding banquet of the Duke's Mansion that day, the morning glow disappeared for a period of time. When the wedding banquet dispersed, Wen Yao happened to hear what the fourth prince said when he said goodbye to Lv Xianger and Chaoxia. Although the fourth prince didn't make it so clear, Wen Yao still heard that Chaoxia left to see Lv Erniang, but she met the fourth prince and was entangled by him for a long time before returning to the side hall.
Chaoxia was like a sister to Lv Xianger, so she also persuaded her, "Sister Chaoxia, what Sister Yaoer said is not unreasonable. You can't be impulsive and do anything. Qingqing also said that although the fourth prince likes beautiful women, he has never forced anyone. Don't worry too much.
"Yes, Sister Chaoxia, the fourth prince is very arrogant on the surface, but in fact he is very measured." Huo Qingqing nodded and assured Chaoxia. But in her heart, she thought that with the temperament and appearance of Chaoxia, if she was born in a family like her, she would be very suitable for the fourth prince.
Chaoxia looked at the three people and picked the corners of her mouth without any smile. His family knew his own affairs. It was not a day or two for Chaoxia to be pestered by the fourth prince. How could he not see that he was against her, or he did not give up his attitude. Chaoxia really can't figure out what he like about himself.
