Chapter 226

"Besides, sister-in-law is with you, what good does she have? You can make her have enough food and clothing, and wear gold and silver. That's a good man. Look at her life now? You accompany her back to her mother's house during the Chinese New Year At that time, didn't you say that others looked down on you? You just work hard in the tea garden, make money to make your sister-in-law live a good life, and make people admire her, that's a real man."

These words hit Qin Lao Liu's mind completely.

His daughter-in-law is also the daughter of a respectable family in the city, and because he is loyal and helps her a little, she falls in love with him.At the beginning, her natal family disagreed, saying that Qin Laoliu had accomplished nothing.It's still the daughter-in-law who wants to marry, which makes him the Qin family.

On the day they got married, he said that he must let his daughter-in-law live a good life.

But the situation at home is not something he can change by making an oath. The family is still poor and life is still difficult.

Now he has a three-year-old son, and his wife has another one in her belly. With more children, life will only become more and more difficult.

"Now you are not alone and the whole family is not hungry. If you have a family and a room, you should stand up like a man." Lu Xiaobei said, serious and serious on his immature face.

Qin Lao Liu was ashamed by what he said.

He nodded vigorously and said: "You are right, I should work hard for their wives." He wiped his face and said solemnly, "Don't worry, I will do a good job. I will make peace with you in the future." Like shopkeeper Yao, he works under Young Master Du. He is the person you like, and you can't go wrong if you work under him."

"That's right." Lu Xiaobei raised his wine glass and clinked it with Qin Laoliu, "Come on, do it." The two drank it down in one gulp.

Lu Xiaobei pointed Qin Laoliu again: "Do you know how to do things in charge? If you don't know, just ask shopkeeper Yao for advice. You toast shopkeeper Yao and let him teach you."

Qin Laoliu immediately turned around and toasted Yao Shuqi respectfully.

The three of them ate and drank until half an hour later before they came out of the restaurant slightly drunk.

Qin Laoliu remembered his wife and children at home, packed the leftovers and left in a hurry.Yao Shuqi did not leave immediately, but followed Lu Xiaobei for a while, seeing that Qin Laoliu had disappeared, and then asked Lu Xiaobei: "Did the boss ask you to persuade Qin Laoliu?"

Lu Xiaobei touched the head of his hand in embarrassment: "Did you see it?"

Yao Shuqi laughed and said, "Although you're smart, you still can't explain that set of principles. As soon as I heard these words, I knew that the master taught you."

Lu Xiaobei's face was very serious: "Although he was taught by Dong's family, I think what he said is very reasonable. He really wanted to pull Qin Sixth Brother, and he didn't pull him because of lack of manpower."

Yao Shuqi nodded: "I believe in this. There is a lack of everything in this world, and there is no shortage of people. If the owner wants someone to help him manage the tea garden, he can call in the city, and countless people are willing to do it."

Seeing that Yao Shuqi did not misunderstand Du Jinning, Lu Xiaobei felt relieved.

He is a very smart kid. The conflict between Du Jinning and Guan Jiaze during the interview at the beginning of the teahouse's opening, and the later incident between Chen Jiaxing and Liu Ze, made him understand that among the four owners, Young Master Guan and Young Master Qi are not very good. He valued him only as a kid who could perform juggling; Young Master Zhang didn't regard himself as his boss at all, and he didn't care about or interfere in the affairs of the teahouse.

Only Young Master Du truly appreciates him and treats him equally from the bottom of his heart.He asked Qian Youcai to teach him how to read, told himself that as long as he was willing to make progress, he would have a good life, and he also told shopkeeper Zhuang to take good care of the three of them, and to tell shopkeeper Zhuang when he was sick or had a hard time.Young Master Du came to ask himself when he was short of people, and he introduced Yao Shuqi and Qin Lao Liu, and he used them without hesitation.This trust and recognition moved Lu Xiaobei, who had suffered from the cold and warm in the world, very much.

Even shopkeeper Zhuang also said that Young Master Du is a good man and will have a great future in the future, and told him to help Young Master Du well, and not to disappoint Young Master Du's kindness to him.

So among the four masters, he, Lu Xiaobei, only recognized Young Master Du as his master.

Young Master Du asked him to persuade Qin Lao Liu, and he even accepted this kindness for Qin Lao Liu.

When he was a child, when he fought with beggars for food, Qin Lao Liu helped him and gave him two pancakes. He hoped that Qin Lao Liu would live well from the bottom of his heart.

"Work hard with the boss, we will surely live a good life with him." Yao Shuqi patted Lu Xiaobei on the shoulder.

Lu Xiaobei was a little curious when he heard this, and asked him, "Why do you say that? You haven't known my boss for as long as I have."

Yao Shuqi laughed, and said: "I know your shopkeeper Zhuang. He told me that our boss is a very powerful person, and he is very envious of me having the opportunity to follow the boss."

Lu Xiaobei suddenly realized: "No wonder, when I went to find you, you agreed to come and help the boss. It turns out that you already know who the boss is."

Yao Shuqi nodded, walked forward with his arms around Lu Xiaobei's shoulders, and said, "You should learn how to read and learn with me for a while. The boss lacks trustworthy people. As long as you stand alone, the boss will definitely promote you to be a manager. Even Wang Lusheng and Zhang Gouer are no exception."

Lu Xiaobei nodded vigorously: "I understand."

……

The next day was a public holiday, and Du Jinning went up the mountain early in the morning.

She was supposed to be busy making money, but she left early and returned late to stay in the academy all day, and was tied up by the academy.But fish and bear's paw can't have both, if she wants to have a status and not be bullied, she has to stay in this academy, so she can only tinker with her planting business while she has free time.

Today I went up the mountain for nothing else, just to get some tea tree branches back to make cuttings.Her small arms and legs couldn't reach the branches, so Dong Dacheng was the one who went up the mountain with her.

"I heard that Mr. and the others went to buy tea seeds elsewhere. Why don't you ask Mr. for some tea seeds to plant? It's not easy to grow these branches, right?" Dong Dacheng climbed the mountain together and chatted with Du Jinning.

The southern foot of this mountain was bought by the academy, and it was planned to plant tea trees.The tea garden has to be taken care of by the people in the village. As the head of the village, Dong Dacheng naturally knows this matter very well.

"I'll give it a try. If I can grow it, wouldn't it save me the money to buy tea seeds?" Du Jinning said.

For this, she was actually quite depressed.

Later generations of science have proved that asexual reproduction is the best way to reproduce tea trees, and the progeny of cuttings can fully maintain the traits and characteristics of the mother plant.Therefore, the tea trees of later generations are propagated by cuttings.

She knew it was hard to explain, so she told Guan Lehe about it.But the tea garden in the Academy is not owned by Guan Lehe alone, and everyone else thinks this is nonsense, and they don’t think there is anything good about the wild tea tree on the back mountain, so they sent people to Jiangnan to buy tea seeds and plant them. .

Du Jinning kindly offered suggestions, but if they were not accepted, he had no choice but to give up.
