Little husband's market life

Qiao Zhishu subconsciously covered her stomach, and groped her flat belly with both hands, "Happy pulse?"

Sheng Yao also stared at the flat belly with a pair of long and narrow eyes in astonishment, Ximai?He's going to have a baby of his own!Qiao Zhishu's small face when he was eight years old appeared in front of Sheng Yao's eyes. His eyes were black and dark. When he was afraid, he would close his mouth tightly. When he was happy, he would show eight small teeth. He will have a child who looks like Zhishu. ?

After he realized it, Sheng Yao became worried again. If he had invited the doctor back that day, he would not let Zhishu take the carriage today, so he would not have suffered this crime.

Sheng Yao also ignored the gazes of Master and Gang'er, and surrounded Qiao Zhishu, putting one hand on his flat stomach, "The carriage is jolting, do you feel any discomfort?"

Qiao Zhishu still lowered his head and looked at his belly foolishly. The veins were exposed on the back of Sheng Yao's hands. His fingers were slender and his joints were well defined. His big hands almost covered his entire narrow waist. Just looking at him gave him a sense of security.

Qiao Zhishu pursed his lips slightly, and his breath sank. He tried to stretch his stomach, but he has been riding a horse for exercise since he was a teenager, so his waist and abdomen have always been tight, his limbs are well-proportioned and strong, and there is no excess flesh on his waist .

Qiao Zhishu concentrated on playing with his stomach, and Sheng Yao naturally felt it. The belly with the palm of his hand rose and fell with his breathing, and his heart was also soft.

"I don't feel it..." Qiao Zhishu had had enough fun, and turned to answer Sheng Yao, he really didn't feel it at all!He just thought that the carriage bumped and he wanted to vomit...

Sheng Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good if you don't feel it, so I won't bother you."

When he and Zhishu got married, many seniors in the business field were very puzzled, because there were very few elder brothers in the Daqing Dynasty who married Zhishu as their regular wives, because it was extremely difficult for elder brothers to conceive.

After getting married, it was only when Sheng Yao was 23 that he started eating meat. Qiao Zhishu was not happy for the first two days, and felt less comfortable than before getting married.For this reason, Sheng Yao secretly read the erotic book, and after consciously learning a lot, he hugged Qiao Zhishu and threw him on the bed before it was dark. Cooperate and take the initiative.

At that time, the two of them were messing around every day, Sheng Yao still thought that it would be good to have no children.Zhishu has a career she likes to be busy, and she is still young, even now that she is pregnant, she still has a childish temper.

Master Yuantong, supported by Gang'er, went out to look at the pear trees in the yard.

……

There were only the husband and wife left in the room, and Sheng Yao kissed Qiao Zhishu's stomach through his clothes.

Then he pointed and said: "My son is a man who will enjoy life. When he is born, he will live in a ready-made compound."

Daughter and son are all his children.

Qiao Zhishu couldn't help laughing, "I remember when I was young, Gang'er and I guessed crossword puzzles. When he was born, I would ask him to guess with Gang'er."

In retrospect, the two of them have always had a relationship with children, Xiao Ganger, Xiao Huansheng, and the two brothers Sun Chao and Sun Lang.

The two chatted about their childhood. At that time, the three of them lived in a small courtyard with their grandmother. Sheng Yao went to the county school. Qiao Zhishu and Xiao Gang'er counted the days to look forward to their brother's return. In a blink of an eye, ten years have passed, and they have given their families and themselves a prosperous life by themselves.

Gang'er stood under the pear tree and smacked his lips greedily. He raised the pear tree with a ladle of water and manure. He still remembered that the first batch of pears produced by the pear tree grew sour. He boiled it into an ointment, which is delicious when soaked in water with honey.

The master sat on the stone chair and called Gang'er over, "Cheng Geng, there is a small black pot on the cabinet in the room, go and get it."

Gang'er rummaged around and found out that there was only a small earthenware pot as big as his hands, which contained the autumn pear paste boiled by his master.

The master personally made a bowl of pear soup for Gang'er, and said, "This summer's harvest will be distributed to those children in Chengchang."

The Cheng family were those little novice monks. After Sheng Yao paid for the repair of the Wolong Temple, the orphans from the nearby villages were sent to the temple to be raised.Gang'er remembered that when he first came, those little guys were innocent and cute, and they were running around playing in the temple before they calmed down. He couldn't help but think of his brother Sheng An.

"Master, there is still no news about my brother..." Gang'er was holding the sweet pear soup, looking down sadly, wondering if Sheng An could be like those little novice monks, who had pears to eat in summer and pear soup to drink in winter.

"Cheng Geng has grown up." Master Yuantong touched the back of Gang'er's head, he was only as close as a grandfather and grandson to Gang'er, "Senior Brother Ci'en calculated for that child before he passed away, he was born with a rich life, Cheng Geng don't need to worry , you brothers are safe and well, and we will meet each other someday."

At this time, Sheng Yao helped Qiao Zhishu and walked out. Hearing what the master said, he felt much more relaxed. Sheng An is a wealthy man, so it must be extremely safe.

The two sat down together at the stone table in the yard, and also asked about the theme of their visit.

After listening to the question quietly, the master counted the beads in his hand and said, "Go, there are noble people in the north."

After Master said this, Qiao Zhishu felt relieved.This shows that Gang'er's trip to Beijing is protected by a nobleman, since it is Gang'er's blessing, as the elder brother, he must not say anything to stop him.

**

After returning to Fucheng, Sheng Yao added a book library to Wolong Temple, and paid a lot of money to buy a lot of scriptures and sent them to Wolong Temple.And Qiao Zhishu began to be coaxed by the elders to conceive...

He eats and sleeps all day long, and only in the evening can Sheng Yao take a walk to digest food. Once the lazy bones are cultivated, Qiao Zhishu will start to feel sleepy after eating every day, and he will be hungry when he wakes up. He groaned and rubbed his stomach.

Sheng Ying said that the child in his womb came to repay his kindness, and it didn't make him feel uncomfortable at all, and it was easy to take care of when he was born.

After Gang'er and Wang Jiangwei set off, his stomach began to grow nonstop.

He eats salty food early in the morning, and sweet food after a while. The rice at noon is the new rice of this year.

I'm tired of eating a lot of rice, how annoying is it?It was also at this moment that Sheng Yao's patience that was different from ordinary people was manifested. He ordered the cook to serve a bowl of noodles without putting a drop of oil in it.

The two stared helplessly at their flat stomachs, Qiao Zhishu clicked his tongue, "Brother, he wants to eat eggplant."

Eggplants are dried eggplants marinated in vinegar. The method of making eggplants is complicated, and summer is the harvest season for eggplants. It is now the end of December, and people probably have finished eating the pickles.

Sheng Yao raised his hand to grab the back of Qiao Zhishu's neck, and sucked a red mark on his cheek, "Wait!"

Then Sheng Yao put on a cloak and led the horse out of the yard. Sheng Ying held the hand heater and stood at the door of the main room, looking at Sheng Yao's back and sighing.

Mrs. Sheng was a bit sleepy after eating, and she was dozing off. She woke up when she heard this sigh, and said with a smile, "Who did our Yaoer learn to hurt people like this? My sons didn't see it either." There is something for him to learn..."

Sheng Ying thought of the day she was carried home by her younger brother, Sheng Shaoyuan pointed at Sheng Yao and said that Sheng Yao would beat his wife harder than anyone else in the future... But seeing this, how is it possible?

Sheng Ying shook her head, and went back to sit next to her grandma, "That child, Qiaoer doesn't care if he doesn't feel a little bit uncomfortable, just toss around. Those who are interested will have a taste for a while, and when he buys it back, maybe Qiaoer doesn't want to eat it." gone."

The old lady took it easy, "Young man, let the two of them toss about."

Both kids are happy.

Half an hour later, Sheng Yao came back with a food box.The old lady had already gone back to the house to take a nap, and Sheng Ying took her daughter to help Yu Lan embroider her wedding dress. In the spring of next year, Yu Lan will marry into Wan's family.

Qiao Zhishu was very pleasantly surprised, "It really exists, how did you get it?"

Eggplants are mainly fried with diced chicken legs, dried eggplant, diced mushrooms, diced bamboo shoots and various dried fruits, with a strong bad smell.

Sheng Yao asked the cook to order two bowls of plain noodles again, mixed them with eggplant, and had lunch with Qiao Zhishu.

"What else does my son want to eat? Just tell me." Seeing that Fulang has a good appetite, Sheng Yao asked casually.

But when Qiao Zhishu heard this, he reached out and patted his shoulder, "Taking advantage of me."

Sheng Yao didn't speak, but just held Qiao Zhishu's hand and asked him to touch his stomach.

Only then did Qiao Zhishu remember that he had just made an excuse that the baby in his belly wanted to eat eggplants, so he began to moan and act coquettishly again, "Husband..."

Sheng Yao kissed him on his oily lips, and scolded him coldly, "A husband is valued by his son, and proud by his favour, so he does what he wants, so he does it."

"Hahaha..." Qiao Zhishu couldn't help laughing, he staggered from side to side while laughing, and leaned back, remembering to hold Sheng Yao's hand tightly to prevent him from falling down.

Sheng Yao felt like he had a honeypot in his heart, he went to pick up Qiao Zhishu and put him on the bed, "Babe, sleep for a while."

As soon as Qiao Zhishu touched the bed, he climbed onto Sheng Yao's body with hands and feet, and softly begged, "Brother, accompany me."

Sheng Yao has already accepted the fact that Fu Lang was a crybaby when he was a child, but a clingy man when he grows up.

Qiao Zhishu was happy for a long time because of this, and his stomach stopped after that.

**

After Gang'er arrived in Shengjing, he was invited to spend the New Year in Xiao's residence.

Xiao Yu's mother is Princess Peining, and his father-in-law works in the Ministry of Industry. Last spring and summer, he went to the south of the Yangtze River with his father-in-law to inspect the water conservancy of the Yangtze River.However, he accidentally had a tea fight with Gang'er. Gang'er's growth was out of the world, and he always had a refined stupidity. Xiao Yu liked Gang'er, a little bumpkin with a very strange focus.

The little bumpkin learned that the current Holy Majesty is Xiao Yu's grandfather, so he just said happily: "That's great, Xiao Yu, I want to pour tea for your grandfather."

Xiao Yu felt relieved, and said angrily: "You pour it for me first, I took you to the ice play yesterday and you tripped and almost fell out of joints, your limbs are too uncoordinated."

Gang'er was not convinced, "Wow? The snow in the south of the Yangtze River is thin. If there is ice to skate every year, I will be better than you!"

"It's not that I made Jiangnan snowy, hurry up and make a bowl of soufflé tea."

"When I was in Jiangzhou, you had to beat me in the tea fight before you could eat the soufflé tea."

Xiao Yu: "Do you still have the face to say it? I spent money in Jiangzhou..."

Gang'er shook his head stubbornly, rules are rules, it's agreed that the winner of the tea fight can ask whatever he wants, what kind of a man is he if he pulls money?

"Then you Shengjing, what else is there for fun? Delicious? You have to promise to take me out to play again, so I'll make milk tea for you to eat."

Xiao Yu was completely convinced, "There is nothing delicious, there is nothing better than your Houttuynia cordata in Shengjing, I will save the Houttuynia cordata for you, you can eat it slowly."

"Ah?" Gang'er opened his mouth wide in surprise, and then pouted his mouth sadly and angrily, "Okay then."

Gang'er got up, put on his boots and went to fetch a piece of butter and came back.

Xiao Yu, who lives in Shengjing, is so pitiful, let me make him a bowl of soufflé tea!

After the new year, Gang'er saw Emperor Qinglong.

Emperor Qinglong's birthday banquet was even more lively and grand than the New Year's Eve.Relatives of the emperor, civil and military officials, and foreign envoys came to the banquet one after another, and the banquet was filled with delicacies from mountains and seas.Gang'er is a commoner, and his feet were frozen when he stood at the gate of the palace, so a little eunuch came to call him into the palace.

The palace was heavily guarded, and there were imperial city guards standing guard or patrolling everywhere. The little eunuch told Gang'er to bow his head and not allow him to look around, so Gang'er stared at the eunuch's heels the whole time.

"Wait here, you will lose your head if you run around." The eunuch ordered in a low voice before entering the hall.

Gang'er was outside in the cold wind, listening to the lively congratulations inside, and when the birthday presents of the foreign envoys were delivered, he heard an old man's gentle and powerful voice say: "This year, there is good news from the south of the Yangtze River, and the tea-horse trade is booming. I am very gratified, I heard from Aiqing that this trip back to Beijing also brought a child who is good at tea art?"

Wang Jiangwei quickly stood up, "Returning to Your Majesty, there is such a child. His elder brother is a businessman who runs thousands of miles of tea ceremony. Since last year, he has been in charge of the friendly trade between Jiangnan Yinye and Wulan. The family also opened a tea house. This child is 11 years old. Since then, he has been able to make tea bricks, and the soufflé tea he developed is even more popular in Jiangzhou. This kid often talks with people to express his gratitude to His Majesty, and even specially developed a round tea to celebrate His Majesty's birthday."

Loved by the people, even an emperor likes it.

Qinglong Emperor Long was very happy and called out to his son-in-law, "Oh? Where is Xiao Baowen?"

"Your Majesty, the minister is here." Xiao Yu's Fuma father stood up quickly.

"I remember, you went to Jiangnan last year, did you hear about it?"

Xiao Baowen: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I went to Jiangzhou in March last year and returned to Beijing in June of the same year. During my stay in Jiangzhou, it was the month when Jiangnan spring tea was picked and sold. I really felt the prosperity of the tea market. I talked with tea farmers However, they are all grateful to His Majesty for ordering that the price of tea should not be lower than the price set by the Tea Horse..."

Xiao Baowen said a lot of good things, and finally said: "In Jiangzhou, Xiao Yu often went to a teahouse. After returning to Beijing, he still couldn't forget the milk cake tea, and he was full of praise. It's a pity that I was busy with work and couldn't taste it."

"My son-in-law is too honest." Emperor Qinglong shook his head with a smile, and teased his son-in-law to all civil and military officials, but the meaning of intimacy was self-evident, and he pointed at his grandson Xiao Yu sitting behind Xiao Baowen.

"Yue'er, come, let me take a good look at you."

Xiao Yu hurriedly walked around to the hall and knelt down, "Yu'er pays respects to the emperor's grandfather."

The guard outside the hall lowered his head, his toes were turned up in his boots, he heard Xiao Yu's voice.But it was so cold, every time the emperor ordered a minister, the minister would praise the emperor with kind words, he stood outside the palace for an hour, and stood outside the palace for another hour...

Xiao Yu knew that the wind and snow outside were bitter, and he was also worried about the health of his friend Gang'er, so Emperor Qinglong asked him what interesting things happened during his trip to the south of the Yangtze River, and he quickly replied: "Yu'er went to the south of the Yangtze River and saw that the people in Jiangzhou lived and worked in peace and contentment. There is Qiaojiasheng Teahouse in the state, which spreads the life of drinking tea and eating cakes in the market. Literati and scholars often gather in the teahouse to watch tea operas and discuss poems. Seeing it with my own eyes, Yuer feels that life is happier. At the same time, he is determined to study hard in engineering , and strive to make people live a safer and more convenient life.”

He didn't say anything about his relationship with Gang'er. The emperor doesn't like people who form a party. Gang'er was brought to Shengjing by Wang Jiangwei, so he shouldn't get involved with the emperor's grandfather.

Emperor Qinglong liked children, and the words of ministers and sons-in-law were not as useful as those of his grandson, so he ordered the chief eunuch, "Let me see that child from Jiangnan."

Xiao Bu Yi Gang'er finally entered the hall, the little guy didn't know what it means to be afraid, not to mention his good friend Xiao Yu was also sitting in the front corner of the hall.

"Grassman Shenggang, I greet Your Majesty."

Emperor Qinglong saw that the child kneeling in the hall was very thin, and the two cute little cockroaches on his head also showed that he was still a child, and the compassion in his heart was even stronger.He asked Gang'er to get up first, and then he couldn't wait to see what Wang Aiqing said about the "exquisite tea art".

Gang'er moved the eunuchs to the table in front of him, and started to order tea. The little guy was more stable than a meditating monk, and his movements were skillful and smooth. Finally, under the amazed eyes of everyone, he ordered a "shou" on the tea bowl Character.

The chief eunuch brought it to the emperor himself, and the emperor laughed heartily, "Reward!"

"I heard that you developed soufflé tea when you were 11 years old? Why did you combine milk and tea?" Tuancha, the emperor drank too much, and the old man was curious about this 'milk soufflé tea' that he had never heard of.

Gang'er looked back at Emperor Qinglong generously, the child's eyes were pure without a single trace of impurity, the chief eunuch saw that His Majesty didn't mind, and thought of a grassroots person in Shenggang, it's normal not to understand etiquette, so he didn't say a word to stop.

"When I was a child, my lungs were not good. The Buddha said that daigo can cure lung impotence and coughing, so my younger brother made goat's milk to make daigo. Later, when I recovered, the daigo turned into soufflé..."

Emperor Qinglong was greatly moved, "Brothers of flesh and blood, heart and hand are connected, and with the friendship of your brothers, this milk cake tea is just now available. This thing is full of affection, I want to taste it."

……

Gang'er made two bowls of tea in the hall. Gang'er was just a little commoner who was able to meet the Holy Majesty and perform a tea ceremony for a quarter of an hour in front of the imperial court. Although Emperor Qinglong praised them because of their brotherhood, the praise of the emperor , the world is all envious.

After the Chinese New Year in the next year, Shengjing spread the news to Jiangnan. The Tuancha presented by Sheng Jiaqiao was named "New Garden of Baochun" by the Holy Master, and Jiangzhou Baochun tea will be used as a gift from the Daqing Dynasty to Java. Thanks to Java. The country traveled across the ocean to come on a pilgrimage to celebrate birthdays.

The emperor's name was corrected, and Jiangzhou Baochun tea became popular all over the country at once. In the same year, it was recorded that "Baochun Xinyuan is of excellent quality, one ball weighs eight liang, and one cake costs one thousand."

The milk cake tea of ​​Qiao Jiasheng Tea House was praised by the Holy One, but the Holy One was more moved by Qiao Zhishu's love for his younger brother's protection, so he gave Qiao Zhishu and Sheng Gang the title of "the first tea maker in the south of the Yangtze River", although there is no material Reward, but in the Daqing Dynasty when the 'sound price' was higher than life, this was already an honor for the glorious lintel.

At the same time, Emperor Qinglong ordered Dengzhou to be the only treaty port.Silk, porcelain, and tea were the three treasures of the foreign trade of the Daqing Dynasty. For a while, merchants dealing in these three types of commodities focused their attention on the Dengzhou Ferry...
