Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

It was already early September when distant relatives came to visit, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching.

Every time at this time, He Yuzhu's tavern is the busiest.

All kinds of cheap liquor were quickly sold out.

Facing the existing wine in the cellar, He Yuzhu silently estimated,

It is expected that medicine sales will be booming this year, and the remaining 20 bottles of medicinal liquor in stock may be sold out in less than two days.

"We can't go on like this. We have to step up production before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

He stroked his chin and said so after thinking.

Then he noticed that there were still two baskets of medicinal herbs left from the purchase.

These high-quality medicinal materials can be made into excellent products after proper extraction and mixing.

So He Yuzhu took a wooden basin, poured all the medicinal materials into it, and added water to boil them.

Soon, the water in the pot began to boil.

He Yuzhu picked up the spoon and slowly scooped the liquid medicine into the bowl until it became as thick as a paste.

Then he stirred it evenly again with a spoon and waited for about half an hour before stopping.

"It should be done, but the medicine juice seems to be a little lighter today?" Looking at the medicine juice in the bowl, He Yuzhu felt a little puzzled.

He walked out of the house with the medicine bowl and placed it in the sunlight.

The originally clear green liquid has now become very turbid.

“Is there not enough material?”

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu felt heavy-hearted.

If it was really caused by insufficient materials, then all the herbs he had worked so hard to collect last time would have been wasted.

Just then, footsteps and conversation were heard outside the door.

He Yuzhu frowned slightly. Who could it be at this time? He turned around and looked outside.

Soon, the sound of the door opening was clearly heard.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Xu Huizhen who had returned.

Moreover, there was a man behind her.

"Yuzhu, this is my cousin who came from the countryside. He came to the city today to do something." Xu Huizhen introduced the man behind her with a smile.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu quickly wiped his hands and walked forward.

"Why haven't I heard that you have a cousin?"

He Yuzhu glanced at the man, trying to find a connection between his appearance and Xu Huizhen.

"He was working in the countryside, and the festival was coming up, so he came to the city to buy some items."

Seeing He Yuzhu's inner confusion, Xu Huizhen responded with a smile.

He Yuzhu suddenly realized.

The three of them entered the house, and He Yuzhu took the initiative to ask: "Brother, what are you going to buy?" "Hui Zhen said you can buy medicinal wine, I was thinking of buying a barrel to take back to the village."

As he was talking, my cousin looked around. It was obviously his first time in the city and he was curious about everything around him.

After understanding his intention, He Yuzhu immediately expressed his agreement.

"Okay, I just happen to have some new wine that has just been opened today, so I'll prepare a jar for you."

Looking at this scene, Xu Huizhen couldn't hide her smile, and chuckled to cover up He Yuzhu's slightly embarrassed expression.

Thinking of the clumsiness in his words just now, He Yuzhu really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

My cousin's smile made the atmosphere a lot more relaxed.

"Brother-in-law, how much is this wine?"

Although he felt He Yuzhu was friendly, it was their first meeting after all. In addition, Xu Huizhen had mentioned a lot about the pharmaceutical factory on the way here, which made his cousin somewhat worried that the price of the medicine was too high.

However, before his worries became reality, He Yuzhu readily agreed.

This finally made my cousin feel relieved.

"Since you are a relative of Huizhen's family, you are also my family. There is no need to talk about money. You can just take it away." As he said that, He Yuzhu stood up, took a pot of wine from the wall, filled a glass and handed it to the other party to taste.

My cousin took the bowl and took a sip.

Suddenly, you will feel a refreshing and cool feeling in your mouth, as if a stream of clear spring water is flowing through your throat, making you feel clear-headed and refreshed.

His eyes suddenly lit up and he exclaimed in admiration: "Brother-in-law, this wine is really good!"

Faced with his cousin's praise, He Yuzhu smiled gently and felt quite proud.

"If you are satisfied, this jar of wine will be considered a gift." After saying that, He Yuzhu stood up again and took a jar of good wine that had not been opened in the corner.

Xu Huizhen looked at the two of them with a smile.

"You'd better pay, Yuzhu. This jar of wine is very expensive."

My cousin looked embarrassed and felt it was not right to accept such a generous gift on their first meeting.

But seeing this, Xu Huizhen immediately advised: "Since he is your cousin, please accept it without worry."

She knew very well that her cousin's financial situation was poor and he barely made a living by farming with limited income. His wife was sick and needed care, which put him under even greater financial pressure and made his life quite difficult.

In addition to coming to the city to handle business, my cousin also brought some local specialties with him, intending to set up a stall to sell them in exchange for some money.

"We are a family after all. You are so polite that I feel like I don't treat you as a family member."

He Yuzhu used some tricks to try to allay his cousin's concerns.

Finally, after hearing these words, my cousin felt completely relieved.

Since that was the case, he was no longer polite and happily accepted the bottle of wine.

Seeing this scene, He Yuzhu also showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"Huizhen, I'm so happy for you to see that you have such a happy life now." The cousin was very envious when he saw the large scale of the factory.

"Cousin, you don't know, this is all thanks to Yuzhu." "Your brother-in-law is really awesome." Xu Huizhen always spares no effort in praising He Yuzhu.

"Bring some more snacks back later. These are all made by Yuzhu himself." After Xu Huizhen said this, she glanced at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu smiled and nodded.

 277. Fish Pond

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

My cousin was also very happy and felt that his trip was not in vain.

He Yuzhu turned around and walked into the side room. A moment later, he came back with a box of snacks in his hands.

Xu Huizhen took the snack and placed it carefully in front of her cousin.

"Cousin, take a look first."

My cousin gently lifted the lid, and nine exquisite desserts appeared before his eyes, arranged in three rows.

"Cousin, did your brother-in-law make all this himself?"

My cousin couldn’t believe his eyes. These uniquely shaped snacks were actually the work of a man.

"Yes, these are all made by Yu Zhu, and he even researched the formula himself."

Hearing this, Xu Huizhen's sense of pride grew stronger.

She knew that after her cousin returned to the village, he would definitely spread what he had seen today in an even more miraculous way. Then everyone in the village would know that she had married a husband with extraordinary abilities.

And the occurrence of this incident was exactly what He Yuzhu wanted.

At this time, Xu Huizhen glanced at the time.

"Yuzhu, are you done with the work at the factory? Let's go have lunch together."

He Yuzhu shook his head, "No, the herbs haven't been processed yet, take your cousin first and treat him well."

Seeing this, Xu Huizhen didn't say much. After all, the family business was more important.

The cousin held the jar of wine and Xu Huizhen carried the box of snacks, and they walked out of the winery together.

After the door was closed, He Yuzhu immediately got back to work.

When he checked the medicine juice he had just processed again, he found that the color of the medicine juice seemed to have changed again.

Although He Yuzhu has brewed no less than a hundred jars of wine, he still feels insecure about handling medicinal materials.

He immediately returned to the house and took out the book that his master had given him.

After reading it carefully several times, I finally understood some of the content.

The book clearly records the relationship between drug ingredients and various fungi.

Fungi are rich in various amino acids and nutrients, which help eliminate toxins from the body.

At the same time, they also have excellent antioxidant effects.

The so-called "antioxidant" actually means that fungi contain low amounts of protein and lipase and have weak resistance to radiation.

In the process of making koji, He Yuzhu pays particular attention to these characteristics.

Because mushroom cultivation technology was relatively backward at that time and it was difficult to ensure food safety, He Yuzhu had to have a deep understanding of every ingredient.

Once an ingredient is in short supply, the dosage needs to be adjusted or a substitute needs to be found to ensure the safety of the final product.

Before I knew it, two hours had passed.

Finally, He Yuzhu successfully processed the medicinal materials in the market.

At this time, bursts of gongs and drums were heard outside the door.

He walked to the door and looked out, and found a group of people from the village gathered there. It seemed that one of the families had a happy event.

The village chief and several villagers stood at the entrance of the village, as if waiting to welcome guests.

When the village chief saw He Yuzhu, he walked over quickly with a smile on his face.

"Boss He, excuse me for disturbing you?" He Yuzhu nodded slightly.

"Boss He, your medicinal wine is really effective. My son feels much better after taking it." The village chief seemed particularly enthusiastic and kept expressing his gratitude.

He Yuzhu didn't say anything, but just glanced towards the village entrance.

I saw a black car parked at the entrance of the village.

Then, a young man wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket walked out from the passenger seat.

When the village chief saw the situation, he immediately came forward.

"Comrade Li, you are finally here."

The man called Comrade Li took off his sunglasses and glanced at the village chief. "Well, you lead the way."

The village chief agreed repeatedly and immediately led the way.

He Yuzhu watched all this with a frown, feeling suspicious. It seemed that there would be some movement in the village.

He Yuzhu had never seen the village chief be so humble and flattering.

... Request flowers ...

At this moment, a villager happened to pass by He Yuzhu.

277.3

"Big brother, who is that person?" He Yuzhu pulled the villager aside and asked.

"I heard that the village chief introduced an investor to build a fish pond here." The villagers seemed quite at a loss.

Speaking of fish ponds...

He Yuzhu's face twitched.

Such an action would never come from the initiative of the village chief.

There are probably other motives behind this.

He thought to himself.

However, this matter has nothing to do with me.

He Yuzhu stopped and watched for a while, then closed the door of the winery until dusk fell.

... 0 ...

When he returned home, he found that Xu Huizhen had prepared food and was waiting for him.

"Has my cousin left?" He Yuzhu asked after sitting down.

"He left, quite satisfied, and even gave me the dishes he brought."

Xu Huizhen pointed her finger at the fresh vegetables piled on the ground.

"This cousin is quite polite."

He Yuzhu nodded and did not particularly dislike this relative.
