The happy life of a farmer's little winemaker

Chapter 146 The Trial Is Coming

Half a month has passed since Huo Qingsong came to propose marriage. At this time, Huo Qingsong and Song Yuan came to the Lv family much less because of the affairs in the court. And every time he came, most of them stayed in the East Cross Courtyard and talked about something with Lv Hong. Even if he saw Lv Xianger at dinner, Huo Qingsong was as quiet as nothing had happened.

Getting this result is what Lu Xianger wanted. But at the beginning, she was still a little frustrated and uncomfortable. But she thought that she refused Huo Qingsong herself, and she couldn't be blamed for neglecting her. Huo Qingsong was also a cold-faced general. If he is still clinging after being rejected, Lv Xianger will doubt whether he is still Huo Qingsong.

Fortunately, Lv Xianger soon didn't have time to think about the relationship between her and Huo Qingsong. Because Yuan Musheng came to Beijing with his family and a man named Tie Geer. Lu Xianger began to be seriously busy with them in the shop.

The original shop was a rice shop, and the yard behind it was only used to store grain. Now it is going to be changed into a wine shop, which can be regarded as the reconstruction of a 'front shop and back shop'. Every day, Lv Xianger is in the shop, directing the craftsman to build the backyard according to her ideas. When Yuan Musheng followed Zeng Er, the stew manager of the Guogong Mansion, and found the source of grapes and grain, Lv Xianger had to prepare to make wine.

When the grapes are ripe, the wine is naturally the best. Seeing that there are more and more people in the capital, and they are all outstanding young heroes of the Zhou Dynasty, Lv Xianger wants to promote her winery and make a lot of money.

Lv Xianger wanted to make a lot of money by taking advantage of the three-year imperial examination of the Zhou Dynasty. Lv Hong was thinking about the "former shame" of the last place in Jiangling Mansion in the trial. Throughout the day, Lv Hong either read in his yard or went to the general's mansion to ask Huo Qingsong for advice. Because there was a private martial arts arena in the general's mansion, Huo Qingsong generously lent it to Lv Hong. Moreover, all kinds of weapons and military books in the general's mansion made Lv Hong not go to the general's mansion for two days, so he was uncomfortable.

Although sometimes Lv Hong was beaten black and blue by Huo Qingsong during the competition, he smiled every time he came home. Seeing the injury on Lv Hong's body, Lv Er Niang was a little distressed, but Chaoxia saw that Lv Hong's martial arts had improved. Chaoxia is very confident that under the guidance of Huo Qingsong, Lv Hong will be amazed in the trial.

With Chaoxia's guarantee and comfort, Lv Erniang was also relieved. During this period, Lv Xianger was busy with her shop, Lv Hong was busy with his trial, and only Chaoxia was with Lv Er Niang. Feeling that Chaoxia was affectionate with her, Lv Erniang thought about Chaoxia's marriage while taking good care of Lv Hong and Lv Xianger'er's body.

From the outside, it can be seen that Chaoxia is not much older than Lv Xianger, but in fact she is almost 18 years old. Lv Erniang is three years old at her age. Thinking that Chaoxia is also her adopter-in-law, Lv Erniang has to pay more attention to her marriage. Although Chaoxia's character has changed a lot compared with when she first came to the Lv family. But towards outsiders, Chaoxia is still so cold, and Lv Erniang doesn't know what kind of family to find for her.

Looking at the post in her hand, Lv Erniang sighed gently: "Sister Zheng is right. Let's go. Maybe you can also find a good marriage for Chaoxia. And Xiang'er, you have to take a look for her.

As soon as Lv Erniang finished saying this, she heard the sound outside and knew that it was Chaoxia and Zao'er who came back from the outside. Tomorrow is the day when Lv Hong will take the literary examination. Lv Erniang wants to make some delicious food and let Lv Hong make up for it. And Lu Xianger, she has also lost some weight during this period. However, when Lu Erniang just wanted to go out, the wet nurse of Huo Qingsong in the general's mansion came. Chaoxia replaced Lv Erniang and went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables with Zaoer.

But when Lv Erniang came out of the room, she saw Chaoxia's angry face, and the jujube walking behind was carrying vegetables with a cautious face. Lu Erniang immediately said strangely, "Chaoxia, what's wrong with this? It's not too cold, and there's frost on your face?"

"Dear godmother, it seems that you are in a good mood. You have begun to make fun of your daughter." Seeing Lv Erniang, the expression on Chaoxia's face softened. But there was still some disgust in her eyes. Seeing this, Lv Erniang didn't ask much. She asked Zaoer to take the vegetables she bought to the backyard, and she was also going to cook.

Chaoxia knew that Lv Erniang would definitely ask Zaoer what had happened, and Zaoer would not hide anything, because she did not tell Zaoer. Thinking of what had just happened, Chaoxia was so angry that she immediately returned to her room in the West Cross Courtyard.

It was said before that before Lv Xianger, Lv Hong and Chaoxia came to the capital, Lv Erniang had already prepared a room for the three of them. But there are only some simple objects in the three-person room, and the others are waiting for the three to be arranged according to their own preferences.

Chaoxia was originally a cold person. Although her personality has changed, some things that she has been used to can't be changed. For example, her room decoration. In addition to the bed prepared by Lv Erniang, the tables and chairs are still there, and only half of the room is used. The other half was made into a small indoor martial arts arena by Chaoxia, which did not look like a daughter's boudoir at all.

On the three walls of the martial arts arena, there is nothing but some weapons found by Chaoxia. I also want to see vases, incense burners and other gadgets in her room. Of course, everything is not absolute. There is still something like a little lady in Chaoxia's room, a half-embroidered handkerchief, and needle and thread.

Just as Zao'er was talking about the reason why Chaoxia was angry like Lv Erniang, Chaoxia had already used her sword in her room. As the saying goes, laymen watch the bustle, and laymen watch the doorway. But Chaoxia's swordsmanship is a light journey, and his skills are very beautiful. From the perspective of Huo Qingsong and Lv Hong, the power contained in Chaoxia's swordsmanship should not be underestimated. Just listening to the sound of breaking the air, you will know that Chaoxia has exerted a lot of effort. Looking at the look in Chaoxia's eyes, he knew that there was a hypothetical enemy in front of her at this time, and Chaoxia was stabbing the man.

"Zao'er, do you think it's His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?" When Lv Erniang heard the name, the action of the dish in her hand immediately stopped.

Zao'er nodded repeatedly and whispered, "Madam, there were too many things a few days ago, and I didn't dare to say anything. It's not the first time such a thing happened today. I followed Chaoxia's little lady and saw it three times..."

In Zaoer's narration, Lv Er Niang knew that during this period, Zhao Chengmin, the fourth prince, would always appear in front of her when Chaoxia went out. Although Zhao Chengmin, dressed in casual clothes, did not attract the attention of too many people, he pestered Chaoxia again and again, and the meaning was already obvious. Thinking of Zhao Chengmin's status and the background of Chaoxia, Lv Erniang frowned fiercely.

It seems that the invitation in three days must go. For the sake of Chaoxia, and also for myself, I have to learn to integrate into that class. Lv Erniang thought of her life before and Li, and sighed gently. After marrying into the government, her days were probably the difference between heaven and earth compared with that time. But when she was about to choose, she couldn't escape. When Lv Erniang heard the sound of Lv Xianger and Lv Hong coming back, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

Lv Xianger and Lv Hong happened to come back at the same time. Standing at the door, the brother and sister saw each other and laughed. Although it's almost winter now and the weather is cold, the brother and sister are still 'busy' sweating and want to have a fan.

Chaoxia was also sweating. When she saw the brother and sister, she also smiled. When Xiaowu unloaded the carriage, Lv Erniang asked him and Zaoer to send the already boiled hot water to the two yards. Lv Erniang has calculated the time. When the three of them finish taking a shower, it's time to eat.

Lu Erniang made great efforts for today's dinner. There are not only Lv Xianger and Chaoxia's favorite dishes, but also a pot of chicken soup with ginseng, specially prepared for Lv Hong, who is going to attend the trial tomorrow. Lv Erniang knew the results of Lv Hong's township examination in Jiangling Mansion, and she felt a little guilty that she was not with Lv Hong at that time. Now that Lv Hong is participating in the test, Lv Erniang wants him to have the best condition.

When Lv Xianger saw the pot of chicken soup, she was immediately shocked and said, "Mother, you have made a lot of money this time. Brother, if you don't work hard tomorrow, I'm really sorry for this pot of soup.

"Xiang'er, don't put pressure on your brother. A Niang just wants the three of you to make this pot of soup. It's going to be winter soon, so you don't have to get sick. Lv Erniang gave Lv Xianger a white look and first filled a bowl of soup for her. Lv Xianger smiled and made a face at Lv Hong before she lowered her head and drank the soup.

Lv Hong, who has been with Huo Qingsong for a long time, seems to be getting more and more calm. After replying to Lv Xianger with a smile, she said to Lv Erniang, "Niang, I was still a little worried about tomorrow's trial. But when I saw A Niang's soup, my heart was full of confidence. I believe that when I drink soup, I will have enough energy to participate in the trial tomorrow.

"Oh, this is really 'the one who is close to the red is red and the one who is close to the ink is black'. Hong Ge'er has been with General Huo for so many days, and his words have been much more steady. Chaoxia took the soup bowl in Lv Erniang's hand and put it in front of Lv Hong, but said this to Lv Xianger.

Lv Hong did not hear what Chaoxia meant, but nodded and said, "I used to spend a short time with Brother Huo, and I haven't noticed it yet. Now, I also know something about him. Brother Huo is good at literature and martial arts, and he doesn't feel superior to any of the servants in the house.

"General Huo's appearance is a little cold, but he is really good." Lv Erniang nodded and agreed with Lv Hong's words.

Lv Xianger looked up at Chaoxia's smiling face and suddenly felt that she might be too busy and tired during this period. Otherwise, how could she have a feeling that Huo Qingsong bought everyone in his family and kept saying good things for him. It seemed that she should have a good rest. Lv Xianger took another sip of soup, but suddenly felt that there seemed to be more flavor in the soup.
