This medicinal wine was made by Chen Zhen using a method he found in a book, specially for a few elderly people. Drinking a little every day is good for their health. However, this wine has just been brewed, and it will take about a month before it can be given to the elders to drink. But Chen Zhen doesn't mind using this to whet Grandpa Wei's appetite first.
Sure enough, Wei Mingyuan's expression changed when he heard this, but he was embarrassed because of what he had just said, so he didn't say anything for the time being.
Seeing that he was obviously interested, Chen Zhen continued, "We have to wait a month before we can drink this wine. When it's brewed, I'll give it to the elders to drink."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa He asked curiously, "Is the medicinal wine you brewed very bitter and unpalatable?"
"No," Chen Chen said confidently, "The herbs I chose are mild and not bitter. The brew will definitely not taste bad."
Grandpa He was delighted to hear this and said, "That's great! Then your Grandpa Wei and I can toast together again, right? Big Brother Wei?"
When Wei Mingyuan heard this, he snorted lightly, and then said to Chen Chen and the others, "Come back early." This was his tacit consent that they were going out swimming.
After being here for so many days, he knew a little bit about Chen Zhen's character. He was not a guy who could be confined by worldly etiquette. If he couldn't control him, he could only let nature take its course.
"Got it, Grandpa Wei, we will be back soon." Chen Chen smiled complacently and then said.
Afterwards, Chen Chen and He Jinshu took their two children out.
This time, Chen Chen took He Jinshu and the two children directly to Laoan Mountain. Most of the rivers around the village were occupied by people. If they stayed in these places, they would definitely not have fun and would be gossiped about by others. So it would be better for them to find a quiet place and have fun together as a family.
Moreover, it only takes about half an hour to ride from Wujia Village to Laoan Mountain on horseback, which is quite fast.
After the family of four arrived at Laoan Mountain, Chen Chen took He Jinshu and the two children to a stream with a waterfall. The river here was clear and the scenery was pleasant. If it were not for the dangers in the deep mountains, those literati and poets would surely like to come to this place.
After tying up the horses, Chen Chen took the "swimming ring" and said to his two sons, "Come here, Daddy and Father will tie you up and take you into the water."
There were no rubber swimming rings in ancient times, so Chen Zhen made two simple swimming rings using gourds for the two babies.
When the two children heard what Chen Zhen said, they hurried over and asked Chen Zhen and He Jinshu to take off their clothes and then tie swimming rings on them.
The two took off their outer clothes, leaving only a pair of shorts, and then tied swimming rings on them. After that, Chen Chen and He Jinshu also took off their clothes, leaving only their inner clothes, and then went into the water with the two dolls.
Chen Zhen looked at the swimming ring and found that it was fine for the time being and had enough buoyancy, so he slowly let go of his hand and let the two children play in the water by themselves.
And Chen Chen said to He Jinshu: "Ah Shu, you watch them for a while. I'll go swim for a while, and you can go swim later."
He Jinshu can swim. Chen Zhen taught them swimming when he was training them.
"Okay." He Jinshu nodded slightly in response.
After hearing He Jinshu's answer, Chen Zhen dived into the river.
When the two sons saw this scene, they stared blankly at the direction where Chen Chen disappeared, then looked at He Jinshu again, and then shouted in confusion: "Father, Dad is gone."
"Dad went swimming and will be back soon. Let's have fun here first." He Jinshu said soothingly.
"I want to swim too," said He Sixuan.
"You can learn this when you grow up, otherwise it will be easy to get sick." He Jinshu coaxed them.
After hearing this, the two kids had to give up their plan temporarily and instead swam around in the water with their little arms and legs, having a lot of fun.
He Jinshu also took out the small fishing net prepared for them so that they could use it to fish in the river. Although they couldn't catch any fish this way, it was mainly for the happiness of the two children.
After swimming around, Chen Chen returned with a fish weighing over four kilograms. He placed the fish in a shallow puddle by the river and said to He Jinshu, "We have fish for lunch."
John Horgan had no objection to this.
The two children fished for a long time but didn't catch any fish, so they begged Chen Zhen to teach them how to fish.
But their small fishing net was not good at catching fish, so in the end Shen Zhen caught two more fish and put them in the fishing net, and the two of them gave up.
After playing in the water for about an incense stick of time, Chen Zhen brought the two children out. They were still young, and although the weather was not cold, they could not soak in the water for too long, otherwise they would easily get sick.
He Jinshu was still swimming in the water. After Shen Zhen came up, he changed clothes for his two sons and then prepared to make lunch.
When they came, they brought two chickens, and together with the three fish, it was enough for their whole family to have a full meal.
After lunch, Chen Chen said, "Shall we pick some things in the mountains and take them back?"
He Jinshu naturally had no objection, and the two children also agreed, so the family picked some mushrooms and wild fruits nearby and then went home.
By the end of June, all the buildings in Wujia Village were completed, and the teachers from the school also came to Wujia Village.
The teacher's name is Wei Juewen, who is in his 30s and is a teacher from a branch of the Wei family. He likes to travel and study, is knowledgeable, and is not old-fashioned in teaching. Wei Mingyuan feels that Wei Juewen should be able to get along well with He Jinshu and others.
After Master Wei arrived, He Jinshu discussed the teaching curriculum with him, several other scholars, and the original master of Shenjia Village.
The courses for these scholars were naturally taught by Master Wei, while for other students, He Jinshu was responsible for guiding the current affairs and policy questions of the Tongsheng class, and Master Sun was responsible for teaching other courses of the Tongsheng class and some students in the junior class.
Shen Hongyu and others took turns teaching some students in the junior class. Since the combined population of the two villages was over a thousand, there would definitely be a lot of people going to school, and they would definitely be divided into classes, so they needed to teach separately.
After all the rules, regulations and assessment systems have been discussed and completed, the school will start recruiting students as usual after the agricultural holiday. Of course, except for the two villages, students from other places who want to come to the school to study are also allowed.
After everything was discussed, Wei Juewen said to He Jinshu, "I've been to many places before, but I've never found a village in a county town that could be built so beautifully."
Wei Juewen has been here for a few days. When he has nothing to do, he will go for a walk in the village. Although it is hot now, there are pavilions built on some hillsides of Wujia Village. It is very cool to sit on them. There are also fruit trees planted around the hillsides. If you get permission, you can pick some fruits directly to quench your thirst.
