Farmhouse Imperial Examination Road

Chapter 245
It took only five days for the Great Wei Guojiu to be out of the cellar, and all of them were finished.

Seeing that the response was good, Su Liuyu also had a gift from his good brother Master Mi, and planned to brew another batch before the New Year.

This batch was first sold to our own people, and after the Chinese New Year, the koji was purchased and then sold to Daqi.

For the second brewing, the enthusiasm of everyone in the military workshop seemed unprecedentedly high.

The division of labor arrangement is clear and orderly, just waiting for the cellar.

In the year of Shunqi, taxes were reduced and corvees were exempted, and the common people had more money in their hands, so they were all ready to eat a good meal and celebrate during the Chinese New Year.

In the past, if the family had enough money to eat meat during the Chinese New Year, they would have to go around the village.

This year is different, there are a lot of wine gluttons, and they are going to save their meat money and buy a jar of national wine made by the emperor himself.

In the past few days in Changbai Study, the queue is like a long queue every day.

"The emperor said that it was the 28th of the twelfth lunar month when it was unsealed years ago. Why is there no news about it?"

"No, our county is small, so we can't be assigned."

"The emperor said that every prefecture, county and town can get it, and it's only been two days."

Available, but not many places.

In order to get more money, the shopkeeper of Changbai Study surrounded the four big agents.

Master Yuan has been enjoying himself recently.

In addition to Changbai Study, there are many rich merchants around the gift givers and fawners.

Even the big shopkeepers who looked down on him as a shopkeeper in the past came to the door in person.

There is no way, there is really no way, the current him is an imperial businessman who specializes in doing business for Emperor Shun of Wei, can it be the same?

All the gifts were accepted unceremoniously, and when the time comes to enter the palace, they will all be filled in the emperor's private treasury.

The emperor is poorer than him now.

He was very happy with his little calculations, if he wanted to flatter him, he had to come.

29 day.

All the Changbai cavalry departing from the capital sent wine to the state capitals.

A jar of good wine warms the cold and snowy sky. Da Wei is getting better and better this year.

The annual leave has also been approved, and the early morning rest for three days, and they all go home to have a good New Year.

The capital was full of joy, the sound of firecrackers blasted all over the city, straight to the sky, and all the alleys were filled with the sound of New Year's greetings.

A big family, surrounded by an old ancestor, the elders are busy making red envelopes, and the children are busy grabbing candy. This year, the New Year passed smoothly and comfortably.

The red lanterns of the Shen residence were also hung up on the [-]th day.

After Shi'an lit the firecrackers, he hurried into the house, shook off the heavy snow on his body, poked his hand, and celebrated the New Year with his son.

Just after the New Year's Eve dinner, the courtiers like Shen Cheng'an gathered together to have fun and drink, and the female family members of the Shen family also gathered around to eat melon seeds and chat.

On the contrary, Shen Huaizhou's yard is much deserted.

"My lord, it's been a long time since I celebrated the New Year at the mansion, and the last time I spent it in the courtyard." Shi'an poured a cup of tea and smiled happily: "Last year, the emperor wrote a special letter to ask for red envelopes, are you ready for this year's red envelopes? "

Those with young children in the family would ask their elders for a lucky red envelope. As a master, Shen Huaizhou has prepared every year for the past three years.

just this year
"No." He said lightly.

"If the emperor hears it, there will probably be trouble again."

"She won't come."

She should be in the harem now, to watch the age of the Queen Mother. She has always relied on her mother, so she will naturally serve her on this day, fulfilling filial piety.

He took a sip of tea and looked through the window at the thick snow under the house wall.

I just feel that the mansion is a little too quiet this year.

It was snowing heavily outside, and he watched the snow drifting on the wall, slowly getting tired and lost his mind.

Suddenly, the snow seemed to move.

Five frozen red fingers grabbed the top of the wall, and then a head was exposed.

She looks like a fairy in a picture, her skin is as white as snow, but her ears are a little red.

It was as if he had grasped the base of the wall, and then he stepped onto the wall with one leg, and he jumped over the wall and landed flexibly, all in one go.

"When can this nonsense temper be changed?"

Shen Huaizhou got up slowly, under the snow-colored, handsome face, there was a trace of helplessness and connivance.

He opened the door, only to feel that the sound of firecrackers around him was loud and clear, bringing a sense of New Year to the deserted courtyard.

"It's so cold, and the snow is too heavy." Su Liuyu entered the room noisily, complaining.

Shen Huaizhou pulled off her cloak, and naturally held her hands to keep her warm.

"Hands so cold? Run out too?" The tone was slightly reprimanded.

"In the past, Master was always with us to watch the year. Last year we had no choice but to be in Beihuang. This year we must be together."

After speaking, she took her hand out of his palm again and stretched it out in front of him.

"Master, have you prepared the New Year's money? I'm still young." The main one is too poor recently.

Shen Huaizhou smiled indulgently.

"I can't do without you."

The new year's money sealed with red paper was thick, and it was still warm when it was taken out of her arms.

Shi'an on the side didn't want to talk at all.

Young master, didn't you just say no?
Your bank note leaked out of the red envelope, it's so thick, you put it in your arms, don't you panic?
"I wish Master a happy and prosperous New Year, and Ruifu will always be here."

Su Liuyu got the red envelope, kowtowed her head with a smile, performed all the etiquette very politely, then took his hand and rubbed it on the table.

"Brother Shi'an, do you have any wine? Get it quickly to warm up your body. It's best to have some pastries."

"You're welcome." Shen Huaizhou sat down and ordered: "Bring the sweet ones."

Three years of master and apprentice, the habits and tastes are the same, even the tea fragrance floating in the house is the Huokou Huangya that the two are used to drinking.

Su Liuyu suddenly remembered that she hadn't had a drink with her master for quite some time.

The mellow and delicious wine floated into the room all at once, and you didn't need to think about it to know that it was a national brew.

"This wine is strong, drink less." Shen Huaizhou held his hand and poured a glass of wine into the cup.

The behavior and demeanor are all polite and measured.

"It's okay to be drunk, anyway, just find a bed in my yard."

Shen Huaizhou paused while holding the cup.

"I need to avoid suspicion with my current status," he said.

"I came in over the wall."

"."

Seeing that he didn't return, Su Liuyu took a sip of her wine, feeling very wronged.

In recent months, the two have rarely met, and only had a few small talks. They were all polite in front of others. They finally met in private, but they were taught to abide by politeness. How could they be happy.

The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

"After drinking, I will send you back to the palace."

Shen Huaizhou put down the wine cup, his tone was quite cold.

"."

There was disappointment in Su Liuyu's eyes.

"Since entering the dynasty, the government has been busy with government affairs every day, and the early court has never left a single day. Even if I have occasional leisure time, I mostly plan for people's livelihood and never complain."

"Responsibility is heavy, keep it in mind, don't dare to slack off, even before leaving the palace, it is also a matter of size and arrangement, without missing a single thing."

"The courtiers still have a vacation to rest and a home to return to, but now, I don't even have a place to hide."

She laughed at herself.

"I'm back in the palace, so there's no need for the master to send it off, so I'll skip the gift."

After finishing speaking, he put on his boots and got up without staying for a moment.
