little fool's child bride
Chapter 6
"A strange stranger?" Xiao Xiao bit her nails, "It's really strange, he looks like a rich man, but there is no man who can't even afford a private room and comes to share a table with a stranger like me It's not a high-end restaurant. Besides, I don't feel like a glutton, because he doesn't look like he went there for some stinky mandarin fish. If it's full, change to another restaurant. Why do you have to be a stranger with me? Table sharing? Sigh, but I have nothing to plan for, maybe I'm thinking too much."
Jiang Muyu was startled: Sure enough, what the lady said is correct!Da Furen once said that people's hearts are subject to change in the world, and only interests are eternal.If you want to keep a person forever, then the most reliable way is to bind him with a relationship of interest, so that everything about him is in the palm of your hand.Xiao Xiao is so good, many people will rob Xiao Xiao from him in the future, if he can't become stronger, then Xiao Xiao will marry another person...
"I want to practice martial arts." Jiang Muyu sighed, "I will protect Xiao Xiao in the future, okay? Xiao Xiao can do whatever she wants, and don't have to worry so much."
"You protect me?" Xiao Xiao rubbed his head mockingly, "Don't meddle in adults' affairs, children, as long as you grow up healthy and happy!"
"I'll be able to protect Xiao Xiao when I grow up!" Jiang Muyu's eyes were particularly serious and stubborn, but Xiao Xiao didn't take it seriously at all, and went out to get dinner as the sky was getting dark.Jiang Muyu was depressed, and couldn't lift his spirits even after eating. Xiao Xiao felt that he was in a bad mood, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, people who had never raised children had no way to understand their children's emotions.He could only try his best to recall "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and discuss tomorrow's trip with the little fool by the way.
"I haven't bought everything today. I have to go to the West Market to look for it tomorrow. Did Mu Yu go to school? Should I bring you some books?"
"Do you want to go out tomorrow?" Jiang Muyu looked up nervously, "I don't want books, Xiao Xiao won't go out, okay?"
Xiao Xiao was very embarrassed: "No, I told you, I want to do some small business. When I make a sample, I'll give you the first one, okay?"
Jiang Muyu stopped talking, Xiao Xiao sighed, thinking that this little fool is really hard to coax.However, if you are away for less than a day, you will not be happy. What if you are on a business trip for several years in modern times?Fortunately, he is not married, and he feels that there is absolutely no way for him to be a good father.
"Let me ask the young master, shall I send you to school? Make more friends, and you won't be so lonely."
"I don't want to go to school, I want to learn martial arts."
What is the use of learning martial arts?Xiao Xiao frowned, how many heroes in the novel are rich, and no matter how advanced the martial arts are, what other serious work can they do besides being a guard to block knives with others?Such a dangerous and unpromising career, what a fool.Xiao Xiao wanted to speak out to dissuade him, but for some reason, she remembered how serious the little fool was when he said that he wanted to protect him in the afternoon, and she couldn't open her mouth when her throat choked.After being silent for a long time, Xiao Xiao looked at Jiang Muyu's hair with complicated emotions: "Then I will help you find out, and if you encounter any masters, please come back and teach you. But you also need to learn cultural lessons, otherwise you will be deceived in the future." It’s time to count down the money.”
When Xiao Xiao said it, she didn't expect the so-called expert to come so suddenly, and she met him in West Market the next day.It is true that the West Market is more lively than the East Market, but it is also much more ordinary than the East Market. Almost all of them are busy travellers, busy with their lives.Rows upon rows of shops also look like weather-beaten old people - mottled signboards, shopkeepers sitting at the door waving cattail fans, lazily looking at the pedestrians on the street.
Xiao Xiao's bright clothes are very popular here, almost every shopkeeper welcomed him in with a smile, and then sent him out with a bow and bow.After successfully purchasing the things he needed, he followed the smell of wine to a deep alley at noon.
As the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, and it is really appropriate to use it here.Xiao Xiao is not a good wine person, but she has also drank a lot of good wine, but this is the first time she has drunk such a fragrant wine.The name of this wine is Peach Blossom Brew. It is said that it was used by the Queen Mother when she held peach feasts.Although there are elements of exaggeration, Xiao Xiao feels that the aroma of the wine is really not exaggerated-because he followed the aroma of the wine and came to this wine shop in a daze for a cup of tea.
Xiao Xiao naturally had the idea of brewing wine when he first time traveled.You can see how many time-traveling protagonists make a fortune by brewing wine, and you will know how lucrative this is.In ancient times, if the alcohol content was low, then brew spirits; if there was already spirits, then brew fruit wine.There are also medicinal wine, beer, and cocktails. In short, there is no need to worry about the lack of sales and future.It's a pity that the reality is cruel. As early as the second day after he came, he discussed this issue with the kitchen staff and got an answer from the liquor monopoly in his country.In fact, since ancient times, the high-ranking people have always been cautious about alcohol. After all, wine is made from grain, and the annual grain output will not change greatly, so more wine means less grain.Therefore, from discussing alcohol to segregation to taxing alcohol, even though the management of alcohol by the superiors has become more and more humane, in fact they have not relaxed their control on alcohol. Even in disaster years, the country directly implements alcohol prohibition very normal thing.
The country that Xiao Xiao traveled through was in a thriving development period, so the wine tax system was implemented. The government provided wine brewing utensils and koji, and charged high taxes.The signboards of the wine shops are all engraved with the seal of the government, and there is also a sales certificate from the government in their hands; if they are accused of selling liquor privately, they will go bankrupt at least, and at worst, they will go to jail together with their neighbors.If you want to brew some wine yourself, you can, but if you are caught by outside patrols and carry more than ten buckets of wine with you, and you don't have a sales certificate from the government, then no matter how you quibble, you will have to eat a board.
"You old man, why do you want to leave without giving money!"
Xiao Xiao was drinking wine and eating stewed vegetables happily, when the waiter's cry immediately attracted his attention.Looking up, the waiter in the shop was pulling a drunken old man sweating in anxiety, dragging the man so that he would not let him go.There were not many people in the shop at noon, and they seemed to be regular customers. Two or three people went up to block him, but for some reason, the old man dodged them one by one.
"Old man, do I look like someone who is short of money? Didn't I just say that I will deliver it tomorrow?" The drunk flicked his sleeves nonchalantly, shaking the jade pendant on his waist in a showy way, "I come here to drink every year, you Can not remember?"
"I don't remember!" The waiter stared at the old man for a long time, then shook his head firmly, "You can leave if you want, you keep the jade pendant as collateral, and you can exchange it with money tomorrow!"
The old man held the jade pendant dearly: "No, no, no! This is my big baby, a family heirloom!"
"Then why do you come in and drink if you don't have money?" The waiter angrily pointed at the full wine bottles on the table, his heart was bleeding.Now that the tax is already high, and the price of food is always rising a little bit for some reason, they can earn a profit of seven or eight cents for this bottle of wine.The old man asked for ten bottles of peach blossom wine as soon as he came up, and he didn't look like he couldn't afford to drink it. Who knew he was a drinker of Bawang wine?
"What an old man! I asked for ten bottles as soon as I came up, and I thought he was rich!"
"We all come here to drink often, and we have known Zhaocai for more than ten years. Tomorrow, we can exchange money for jade pendants. He won't be greedy for this..."
"That's right! Sometimes we are embarrassed to pay on credit and we will take some things to bet here. Lucky fortune has always been trustworthy, otherwise we wouldn't be able to work here for so long, right? Besides, you said you come every year, but you still can't trust others?"
The customers in the store spoke to each other, but the old man shook his head: "No, no. He doesn't take your things because your things are not valuable enough. People die for money, and birds die for food. I This jade pendant is worth at least a thousand taels of gold, if it were for you, wouldn't you be tempted?"
The customers in the store were silent, a thousand taels of gold?They couldn't help but secretly looked at the jade pendant around the old man's waist, and the more they looked at it, the more they felt that it was not an ordinary thing.Looking at this pattern, although I don't know what it is carved, but it is impressive at first glance!Look at the workmanship again, exquisite!One last look, is this white jade shimmering faintly?Everyone was in awe, even the hand holding the old man's clothes loosened a little.Seeing the situation, Zhaocai, the waiter in the shop, sneered unhappily: "I think you, an old man, just drank too much and bragged here! What kind of jade pendant with a thousand taels of gold, if you have this money, as for coming to my little one Drinking in a restaurant? Our wine is given to many restaurants, why don’t you go to that restaurant to eat wine and food! Besides, I have never seen a rich man who doesn’t even bring a nursing home!”
After hearing this, the guest felt that what Xiao Er said was reasonable, and then looked at this old man——the old man had a bad nose, squinted eyes, and a flushed face. No matter how you looked at it, he was just a drunkard who was addicted to alcohol, how could he be a rich man!The jade pendant didn't shine anymore, and it was no different from the ones on the street stalls that cost a tael of silver each.Seeing that the guests were all falling towards him again, Xiao Er suddenly regained his momentum: "Anyway, you can either give money or jade pendant!"
"You said I'll give it tomorrow, why are you so anxious!" The old man was also a little annoyed, "If you stop me again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Do you still want to hit someone? Send the official! Send the official!" Xiaoer yelled at the top of his voice, dragging the old man to the door.However, the old man turned around strangely and got out of Xiao Er's control, with an extra bench in his hand, "Send off to the official? Believe it or not, I smashed all your wine!"
Xiao Xiao stared dumbfounded at the drunken old man, and felt that she was about to evolve into Conan's physique, and accidents would happen wherever she went.He hurriedly hid under the table for fear that the wine bottle would break and hurt himself, but after waiting for a long time, he did not hear the expected shattering sound, instead, there was a sudden exclamation.
Jiang Muyu was startled: Sure enough, what the lady said is correct!Da Furen once said that people's hearts are subject to change in the world, and only interests are eternal.If you want to keep a person forever, then the most reliable way is to bind him with a relationship of interest, so that everything about him is in the palm of your hand.Xiao Xiao is so good, many people will rob Xiao Xiao from him in the future, if he can't become stronger, then Xiao Xiao will marry another person...
