"Since Fan Jinyou has failed to improve the tavern's business as the public manager, of course we have to find a better one."
Jia Dongsheng smiled faintly. "Or maybe we should just leave it to Sister Huizhen herself. Otherwise, the tavern's business will get worse and worse, which wouldn't be good for the country. After all, half of the tavern is now state-owned."
"Yeah, Dongsheng has a point."
Chen Xueru nodded repeatedly, agreeing: "Just like my silk shop, Pian Ye quit, and since I was doing better and better, the subdistrict office didn't assign Gong Fang as the manager anymore."
"As long as you do a good job, the neighborhood office is easy to talk to."
"So, can I go to the street office to talk about Fan Jinyou's work situation?" Xu Hui asked sincerely.
"Of course you can ask, or even ask the subdistrict office to fire Fan Jinyou. He's no longer a subdistrict official, just an employed manager."
Jia Dongsheng sneered: "Let's see if he can continue to be arrogant now that he has lost his job."
Thinking about how Fan Jinyou had just used chicken feathers as a token of authority, he became furious. He couldn't concentrate on his work every day, and was always thinking about all sorts of things, just looking for trouble.
Jia Dongsheng planned to use this incident to tell Fan Jin that there was a truth: no matter what era, if you don't work hard, you won't have food to eat.
"Okay, I'll go to the street office tomorrow and ask."
Xu Huizhen is not a nagging person, and she really hates Fan Jinyou, so if Fan Jinyou can be kicked out of the tavern, Xu Huizhen would be very happy.
"Okay, I've disliked Fan Jinyou for a long time, and now I can finally get him to stay away from us."
Chen Xueru said happily: "Come on, let's have a drink together."
"cheers."
The three of them clinked their glasses and took a sip. Jia Dongsheng really liked the taste of this aged wine and couldn't help but ask, "Sister Huizhen, how much aged wine do you have left?"
"What's wrong? Do you want to drink?" Xu Huizhen looked at Jia Dongsheng in confusion.
"Um."
Jia Dongsheng didn't hesitate and nodded directly: "This tastes really good. I want to ask if there is much left and how long it will last."
"If you drink a pound a day, it's enough for you to drink for ten years."
Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "There are still hundreds of jars of aged wine in the wine cellar."
"It's just that they weren't stored together. Some have been stored for 40 or 50 years, some for 20 or 30 years, and the shortest has been around 10 years."
"I won't give it to anyone else, I'll just give it to you, my brother."
When Xu Huizhen was speaking, her eyes met Jia Dongsheng's. When their eyes met, they couldn't help but smile. This was a kind of tacit understanding in their hearts.
"Okay, then I will always come to Sister Huizhen to buy wine from now on." Jia Dongsheng said.
"Come on, I'll save all the wine for you."
Xu Huizhen said, "I'll go get more wine in a couple of days. This time I'll get more and store it. I'll store some every year from now on."
“Once the previously stored wines are consumed, the wines stored now will become aged.”
"Okay, thank you, Sister Huizhen."
Jia Dongsheng raised his glass and said, "Come, let me toast to Sister Huizhen."
"Cheers." Xu Huizhen also raised her glass happily and clinked glasses with Jia Dongsheng.
Chen Xueru was stunned. These two people had such an agreement, so what should she do? She didn't have any aged wine, so could she store some silk? She had never heard of silk being able to be stored.
"what to do?"
Chen Xueru kept thinking in her head that Xu Huizhen and Jia Dongsheng had a drinking appointment, so she must also have an appointment that belongs exclusively to her and Jia Dongsheng, otherwise wouldn’t she fall behind Xu Huizhen?
For a moment, Chen Xueru fell into deep thought. She really couldn't think of any way she could have made an agreement with Jia Dongsheng. But if there was no such agreement, Jia Dongsheng would definitely go to the tavern less often than to her in the future. What should she do?
Chen Xueru, whose mood was affected, drank two more glasses without realizing it. She wanted to get Jia Dongsheng drunk first, but she was the first to get drunk.
Jia Dongsheng drank the aged wine without cheating, as that would have been a waste of such a fine wine.
However, he also learned to be smart. He did not wait until he was really drunk before stopping drinking. Instead, he pretended to be drunk when he was almost drunk.
Among the three, Xu Huizhen was the most sober one. Looking at the two people lying on the table, she felt very conflicted.
The last time was when Jia Dongsheng was drunk, and she took the same action. Could it be the same action today?
But thinking about the impact of the last time, Xu Huizhen hated herself so much for the first time. How could she drink so well?
She gritted her teeth, helped Chen Xueru onto the kang first, and then helped Jia Dongsheng lie down beside Chen Xueru. She went out to check on the business of the tavern, and found that there was not much people there.
After coaxing Xu Jingli and Hou Kui to sleep, the tavern closed for the night, and Xu Huizhen went back into the house.
The two people on the kang were still sleeping peacefully. Looking at Jia Dongsheng's handsome face, Xu Huizhen thought to herself, "How can he be so handsome? I just fell for this face."
"well."
With a light sigh, Xu Hui helped Jia Dongsheng take off his clothes, otherwise she would not be able to sleep comfortably.
Who knew that just as Jia Dongsheng finished taking off his clothes and was about to take off his own clothes, a pair of big hands appeared on his hands, and Jia Dongsheng's voice rang out: "Sister Huizhen, how about I help you?"
"ah!"
Xu Huizhen was startled, and then when she saw Jia Dongsheng's clear eyes, her face flushed red, because she understood that Jia Dongsheng had not fallen asleep at all, but what had she just done?
After helping Jia Dongsheng take off his clothes, this...
For a moment, Xu Huizhen was stunned where she was, but Jia Dongsheng was not.
When his clothes were just taken off, Jia Dongsheng's anger was rising, but now he could no longer hold it in.
Following Xu Huizhen's exclamation, the atmosphere in the room gradually became more intense.
The older the wine, the better it tastes.
The last time he did it was completely out of instinct while drunk, and he couldn't taste the flavor of the aged wine at all, and he didn't remember much in his mind the next day.
But today, in order to be able to taste every vintage, I deliberately didn’t drink too much, so I was in just the right state.
I can fully savor the mellow aroma of the aged wine, which leaves a unique delicious taste in my heart.
An hour later, the wine tasting event just ended. The wine that had been aged for many years was so tired that it fell asleep. Before Jia Dongsheng had time to catch his breath, when he took a short rest, another jar of fine wine was opened, waiting for Jia Dongsheng to come and taste it.
"Sister Xueru?"
He whispered it, and then Jia Dongsheng's next words were completely blocked by the aroma of the wine.
This is a wine that is completely different from the aged fine wine. It has a different flavor, but it is equally fragrant and pleasant, and you won't get drunk from it.
