The feelings of children are the purest and more real. Children's voices and words can always touch the softest heartstrings of adults inadvertently.

"My precious child! Grandma almost didn't get to see you..."

When Dong Xiaocao saw her grandson crying so sadly, she was frightened and hugged her grandson and burst into tears.

"Old Yu, since your wife is awake, send her home to rest. Look at what's going on. It's good that everything is fine. It's good that everything is fine. Let's go home and do what we need to do. Tomorrow is the New Year. Have you bought everything for your family? Hurry up."

Seeing that the person had woken up, Yi Zhonghai coughed awkwardly, left a fairly reasonable remark and ran away. He felt that he had really embarrassed himself and had to think carefully about his future arrangements when he returned.

Zhang Xiaoyan felt like she was eating a thin-skinned cantaloupe. After the farce was over, she didn't want to watch the sequel and walked out of the courtyard.

She was going to buy some loose wine. After all, with her medical reserves, medicinal wine also had many uses, and she couldn't waste the effects and energy that the medicinal wine brought her. Who made her read so many novels? As long as they were in the medical field, they would not say that they would not send medicinal wine to the higher-ups.

Of course, if you go to buy wine now, you can't buy bottled good wine. Most of the wine sold in the store is packaged liquor. Not only is it expensive, but you also need a wine ticket. She wants to make medicinal wine, so the amount can't be too small.

The total weight of brewing any few kinds of wine would be over 100 kilograms, so the best thing is to find someone who knows how to brew wine to help you.

Of course, she could also make wine, and the quality would be better, but the equipment needed for winemaking was not available, so she just bought ready-made ones. Of course, if it were in later generations, she might as well buy the equipment and make wine herself. At that time, all the winemakers were passed down from their ancestors, and there would definitely be no adulteration, so the quality would naturally be good.

After asking around, she finally got some reliable information. Zhang Xiaoyan spent 60 cents and took a rickshaw to a family that was said to have run a winery for seven generations.

After getting off the tricycle and paying the money, he walked into an alley called "Maoyan'er Hutong".

"Who are you looking for, lesbian?"

Sitting at the entrance of the alley was a round-faced woman sewing shoe soles. She was looking at the unfamiliar Zhang Xiaoyan with suspicion.

He has a fair complexion and is better dressed than most city dwellers, which made me secretly alert.

Zhang Xiaoyan naturally knew why the old lady was so vigilant. After all, there were too many black rats in this era. This was also a big reason why the yard elected a manager.

"Happy New Year, auntie! I'm here to look for Master Xu who knows how to make wine. I heard that this wine has been passed down in his family for generations. I wonder if he lives in this yard."

Zhang Xiaoyan put on a decent smile and politely told the lady the purpose of her visit.

"Oh! You mean Old Xu? He lives in here. I'll take you in."

When the aunt heard that the person was looking for someone, she did not let down her guard. Instead, she stood up and walked in front to lead the way.

"Why would you, a girl, look for a winemaker like him?"

"To be honest, Auntie, I'm a doctor. I have a patient who needs medicinal wine for his condition, but there are very few alcoholic beverages on the market that can be used to make medicinal wine. So I asked around and came here specifically to buy some high-quality alcoholic beverages to take back and make some medicinal wine for the patient to treat his illness."

"Oh~ I didn't expect you to be a doctor! You are really dedicated. What disease does your medicinal wine treat?"

If someone else had asked this question in the previous life, Zhang Xiaoyan would not only not answer but also scold them for being nosy. But here, Zhang Xiaoyan not only answered carefully, but also talked about the basic effects of medicinal wine. Who can make these aunts so enthusiastic now? In order not to cause trouble, just say what you can! It doesn't matter anyway.

"You mean wine can cure rheumatism? That's great. Tell me, can you give me another bottle? My wife has rheumatism, a sequelae from climbing the snowy mountains. Now she's old, she's really suffering."

Unexpectedly, the old lady got a little excited when she heard it. In order not to cause trouble, she moved closer and lowered her voice.

When Zhang Xiaoyan heard the reason why the other party wanted the medicinal wine, she had nothing but respect for her. Not to mention being able to exchange it, she would be happy to do it even if it was guaranteed to cure the disease for free.

"If you believe me, I'll show it to you. When the medicinal wine is ready, I'll give it to you."

"You are such a sincere girl. I will be waiting for you!"

Regardless of whether it was true or not, the aunt was happy to hear this. You see, even the address changed. The two of them quickly walked to the innermost part.

"Old Xu, someone is looking for you. This girl is a doctor. Don't show your bad temper and scare her away.

Look at me, I've been talking for a long time and I still don't know how to address you?"

The old lady shouted inside, then she touched her head and turned around and said abruptly,

"I am rude. My last name is Zhang Xiaoyan. I work as a doctor at the Red Star Steel Mill. If you don't mind, you can call me Yanzi."

"Okay, okay. My old man's last name is Tian, ​​so you can call me Auntie Tian if you don't mind. My son works in a cotton mill, and my daughter-in-law works with him in the mill. My grandson is 14 years old, and he went to his classmate's house to play today..."

It seems that Auntie Tian is very outgoing. I felt that they had become closer. After knowing the other person's workplace, she told him about her family situation like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

"What are you arguing about? Tomorrow is Chinese New Year, why don't you go and make something delicious for your old man? Be careful that your grandson will cry when he comes home and doesn't see the delicious food."

An impatient voice was heard from inside the room, but it was also clear that the person had already walked outside.

"Hey, you old man, I have something important to talk to you about. If you keep talking nonsense, be careful that I won't show you respect on New Year's Day. Besides, my grandson is already 14 years old, why would he cry? You are so unruly all day long."

Aunt Tian would not tolerate this. She was already unhappy when she was interrupted, and she didn't expect this guy to say something bad, so naturally she had to fight back.

"Okay, go talk to him! My home is right there. When you leave later, call me and I'll take you to see your Uncle Tian. The snow that snowed these two days ago hasn't thawed yet, so he's lying in bed!"

"Got it, Auntie Tian, ​​you can go back and do your work first! I'll come to your house later."

Following the direction of the other person's finger, she saw the door that had been wiped clean and tidy, so she nodded. After Aunt Tian finished speaking, she went back. She had to go back and tidy up the house first. After all, it was a bit messy, and it would not be good if someone came to see it.

"Hello! My name is Zhang Xiaoyan, and I'm a doctor at the steel mill. I heard that your winemaking skills are inherited from my family. I need to brew a batch of medicinal wine to assist in treating patients, so I asked around and came here. Please forgive me for my intrusive visit."

As soon as the door was pushed open from the inside, Xu Jiu narrowed his eyes and looked at the young female comrade in front of him with some confusion. He was still confused in his heart, but after hearing the explanation, he felt relieved.
