Chapter 8

A few days later, Ximen Qing asked Wu Dalang to send wine to the mansion, and naturally he would inevitably tell Wu Dalang about working together to open a winery, but Wu Dalang just shook his head and refused to agree.

Ximen Qing couldn't help feeling bored. Thinking of Pan Jinlian's logo, he walked on Zishi Street.

When Wang Po saw Ximen Qing wandering around the street, he thought he was thinking of Pan Jinlian, so he called out:

"Master, if you're fine, why don't you come to my shop to have a cup of plum soup?"

Ximen Qing came in indeed and said, "It's best to add more acid!"

Wang Po made a plum soup and handed it to Ximen Qing with both hands.

Ximen Qing ate while still looked at Wu Dalang's doors and windows with his eyes.

Wang Po smiled and said, "What, depending on what the great official meant, he came to find Wu Dalang again? But he owed you money and wouldn't he pay it back?"

Ximen Qing changed his mind and heard that Wang Po was a scheming person, so why not ask her if she had any solutions?

Yin laughed and said, "Godmother was joking. How did Wu Dalang owe me money? It's true that I love to eat the wine he sells.

But he paid too little. I wanted to make money and work with him to do this winery business, but he didn't know how to polite him, as if I was going to trick him."

After hearing this, Wang Po said, "I just thought it was a romantic official who fell in love with Wuda's wife, so I couldn't sit still. It turned out to be for this!"

Ximen Qing laughed and said, "I'm going to tell my godmother, I don't know why, after I met the five ladies, I seemed to have taken away my three souls and seven spirits, but I didn't make any sense to get into my feet.

It is said that you are the one who is smart and Sui He, and Lu Jia is powerful! I wonder if you can do tricks?"

Wang Po laughed and said, "I don't hide it from the official, saying that my family sells tea, which is called ghost beat.

Three years ago, on the third day of June, I sold a tea brewing day, and it has not been released yet. I only rely on some miscellaneous food to maintain my mouth."

Ximen Qing asked, "What is called Zajie?"

Wang Po smiled and said, "As a leader, he is a matchmaker, and he is a tooth, he can also hold his waist (to deliver a baby), he will also be younger, he will also be charming, and he will also be a Ma Poliu (pimp)."

Ximen Qing said: "Godmother, I've told you these two things that I've done, so I'll give you ten taels of silver to make a coffin book with you."

Wang Po asked: "The great official is very calculating, and these two things are difficult to handle!"

Ximen Qing gritted his teeth: "Fifty taels! How about fifty taels? As long as my godmother can make me successful!"

----

Ximen Qing did not come to him again for several days. Wu Dalang thought that Ximen Qing had given up, so he no longer cared about it.

Jia Rui knew that Ximen Qing was not such an easy-going person, so maybe he would hold up some bad things in the future.

He was wondering whether he might as well consider Ximen Qing’s cooperation proposal? It’s just how to keep distilled liquor?

There was also the look of the boy Ximen Qing looking at Pan Jinlian and saying that he had no other ideas, who would believe him?

However, Jia Rui does not only make money by distilled liquor, such as skin care products such as soap, sauce cream and glycerin.

There are actually many cosmetics for women in the Song Dynasty, and there are even rouge shops on the street that specialize in rouge powder fragrant cakes, eyebrow pencils and perfume.

"Zhufan Zhi" records: Rose water is a great food for the country's flower dew.

It became popular after being brought into the Central Plains by the Jews.

The ancestors who were good at imitating and research began to imitate: now they often collect flowers and soak in water, steam and replace them with liquid.

Is the extract of perfume? Of course, alcohol is the most suitable. You can also make soap. Isn’t this killing two birds with one stone?

That day, I just talked with a group of children outside about buying jasmine flowers and returned home, but I saw Jinlian in the house.

"Why haven't my brother been back yet?" Jia Rui asked.

The wine is very good now, and people basically order several jars every day, so Wu Dalang basically comes back early.

Jinlian shook her head and said, "I thought Dalang and his uncle had met something outside, but it turned out not?"

Jia Rui shook his head, and Jinlian lost her mind.

Jia Rui asked again: "Does my elder brother have any relatives and friends in Yanggu County?"

Jinlian said: "We have only moved here for a few months and come to Yanggu County to make the purity that no one recognizes here. Dalang is not the kind of social person, he just knows some people who do some small business together."

Jia Rui had no choice but to comfort him: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, my elder brother is an adult, can he still not take good care of himself? Maybe something is stuck outside, maybe where are you going to negotiate business?"

Jinlian nodded, still feeling uneasy.

After all, there is a man in the house, so I don’t feel too panic.

Jia Rui was wondering if it would have something to do with Ximen Qing.

Half a night, Wu Da still didn't come back, so Jinlian couldn't sit still and wanted to look for her.

Jia Rui said: "Sister-in-law is waiting at home. I will take a walk to the places where my elder brother often goes, and I will also inquire about it."

"Then I'll trouble uncle..." Jin Lian blessed her blessing.

When Jia Rui went out, he just wandered around the street aimlessly.

The legal system in later generations was so sound that the case was filed 24 hours after the population disappeared, not to mention the Song Dynasty.

If you lose a living person, how can there be so many servants looking for people all over the streets?

But Jinlian was even more restless at home alone. She was thinking about it, but she heard someone knocking on the door: "Can you be at home?"

Jinlian heard that it was Wang Po next door, so she hurriedly opened the door: "Godmother, please come in and sit down."

Wang Po said, "My tea stall is still on hand, so where can I disturb you? I just heard from the tea customer that said why Wu Dalang was taken by the official? I just don't believe it. How could Dalang's honest and honest person be sued? So come and ask."

Jinlian was so scared that she lost her attention after hearing this, and hurriedly said, "Da Lang has lost his home for half a day! What has my godmother heard? What is going on? Tell me quickly!"

As he said that, he let Wang Po go into the house.

Wang Po was about to come in, but someone in the tea shop asked, "Where has the godmother Wang been?"

Po Wang had no choice but to respond and said apologetically: "Why don't your wife be affected and go to me and talk?"

Jinlian hurriedly said, "It's just that I'm so anxious that I can't care."

After saying that, he didn't bother to clean up and went to the tea shop with Wang Po.

Wang Po first asked Jinlian to sit on a table, and after a while, she came to accompany Jinlian.

Jinlian hurriedly asked, "What did my godmother hear?"

Wang Po said: "A guest just said that the official arrested someone today, and it seemed to be Wu Dalang who sold pancakes. When I heard that it was Dalang, I was worried and asked what was going on. The man couldn't understand it, and seemed to say that he was in a life lawsuit."

Jinlian panicked when she heard this and cried, "Where did this be said? My godmother also knows that my Dalang is such a kind and honest person. How can he get into a lawsuit for life?"

Wang Po said: "I naturally know Dalang's character. I think there is a misunderstanding inside? Why don't you go to the county government to ask?"

Jinlian said: "Where can I find the door at the yamen gate?"

She thought of Jia Rui at the first time.

As he was talking, Ximen Qing walked in with a folding fan and said, "Godmother, order a cup of Hehe tea to eat!"

Wang Po agreed but said to Jinlian: "Madam, do you recognize this Ximen Master?"

Jinlian said, "I have seen him once, and he came to my house to buy wine."

Wang Po said, "Why didn't you ask the great official to help you inquire about Dalang's lawsuit? Ximen Daguan is not only a first-class rich man in Yanggu County, but also a very familiar person with the magistrate and the minister of the county magistrate. He is also a kind and generous person."

Jinlian was a little hesitant when she remembered Jia Rui's evaluation of Ximen Qing.

Ximen Qing waited for a while but Wang Po came to serve tea and called again. Wang Po agreed and ordered tea from time to time to come to Ximen Qing.

"The great official has been waiting for a long time. I have been delayed in talking to the eldest lady of the Wu family. I will forgive my guilt!" Wang Po said with a smile.

Ximen Qing said: "It's okay, I have nothing serious. Isn't that lady of Wu Dalang? I've seen her before."

As he said that, he stood up and sang to Jinlian.

Jinlian could only stand up and give a gift.

Wang Po said, "Have you heard that the great official? Wu Dalang took the lawsuit and was taken away by the officer! The eldest lady is in a hurry here."

Ximen Qing was surprised when he heard this, "Why did Dalang be so honest and be sued?"

Jinlian didn't care about it anymore and walked over and said, "I only found out after hearing what Wang Ganniang said. Now Dalang has not returned all day, so I have no idea..."

Ximen Qing said: "Is it because the officer took it? I can talk to the county magistrate. Why don't I go and ask you what happened?"

Jinlian hurriedly said, "Then I'll trouble the great official."

Ximen Qing waved his hand and said, "What should I do? Dalang and I are familiar with each other. How can I ignore him now if he is in trouble?"

Wang Po also said on the side: "The great official of Ximen loves to help the poor and the poor, and he has the power to speak in the county. If the wife begs him, just keep it at ease."

Ximen Qing said: "It's not advisable to go, I'll just go now. I'll ask my wife to sit at her godmother's house for a while, and I'll come when I go."
