Ask This Spring

Chapter 34:

Compared to the greedy and lustful Master Helian, Mrs. Helian’s methods are even more frightening. The beautiful aunts in the house spring up like bamboo shoots, but no one can shake her status. A woman of ordinary origin can do it. This level is really surprising.

She kept tapping her fingertips on the table, her eyes threatening: "You keep saying that the master has drunk Fengchun Dew. You must remember these words firmly. If you go to Zhuo's house later, whoever dares to forget half a word , I will take your skin off!"

Hearing this, the two aunts shuddered more severely, nodding their heads and saying yes, their appearance was more submissive than facing Master Helian.

It’s not easy to do things at night. When it’s dawn, there are more people on the street. By then, you can achieve the best results whether you go to Zhuofu or a restaurant. The Zhuo family has been in the liquor business for several generations and is also an in-law of the General Mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say that the family is rich. Although the old man has died, his son is not yet weak, so he has to consider something for him.

There was no earth dragon in the hall, and only the brazier was burned. After I knelt for a long time, there was a cold air digging into the bones. The clothes on the two aunts were thin, and the flesh was faintly visible. It was uncomfortable at this moment.

I don’t know how long it took, when there was a rooster crying outside, Mrs. Helian stood up and said to the housekeeper: "Let’s go, take them to Zhuo’s house."

The minions in the mansion did not dare to be negligent, and soon prepared the carriage and ran away all the way.

Last night, Zhuo Xiao looked through the ancient prescriptions, and barely closed his eyes. He was lying in the study, squinting and resting. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden bang on the door outside, which shocked him.

"Come in, what happened, why is it so irritable?"

Since the accident in Miao Ping, the position of chief manager has changed. This person was slightly fat and gave birth to a smiling face. The name was Qu Fusheng. It was the servant Qu brought to Zhuo's house before, and was later bought by Fan Lan, who would commit ungrateful betrayal.

Qu Fusheng kept wiping the sweat on his forehead, just like an ant on a hot pan, and said anxiously: "Master, Mrs. Helian was outside the door and brought two aunts. Helian died violently last night. According to her, it was caused by drinking Fengchunlu."

Zhuo Xiaotong was startled at first, and then sternly retorted: "Nonsense! Every spring dew is a nourishing thing that nourishes the body. Not to mention that it is beneficial or harmful to life. The woman is full of nonsense, beware of flashing. Tongue out!"

After all, he was also afraid of the trouble, and asked Qu Fusheng to take people to the main hall, changed his clothes and hurried over. As soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw two kneeling under the hall, like quails. The shrinking aunt.

"This is the Zhuo Mansion, not the Helian's house. Please be more restrained." Zhuo Xiao frowned and his eyes were dark and unclear, and walked wide to sit in front of the wooden chair.

"Now the concubine's husband died of poisoning from drinking Fengchunlu, isn't Boss Zhuo going to explain it to you? If you are sincere, this matter will not be caused by the government. If not, just stop blaming the concubine. I don’t care about love anymore."

Zhuo Xiao waved his hand at the same time, and the minions in the room withdrew one after another, not forgetting to drag the two aunts together, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What does Mrs. Helian want?"

Merchants are the best at speculation, willing to take risks for profit. The aconite in Fengchunlu is extremely toxic, and it is easy to avoid accidents. How can I think that Helian is so unhelpful outside the staff, only to drink the medicinal wine for a few months, and die, no matter what the reason is, he can’t follow Zhuo The home is half-divided.

"If you don’t speak secretly, Zhuo’s family restaurant is also a giant in Bianzhou. As long as the boss of Zhuo is willing to donate 30% of the profit to his concubine, things can be calmed down, otherwise you will regret it when everyone knows it. It's irreparable."

Mrs. Helian fiddled with her nails, with a somewhat careless tone in her tone. Zhuo's family has a big business, and 30% profit is not a small amount. Seeing Zhuo Xiao's virtues with meat pains, she chuckles.

"It's too much..."

"Boss Zhuo is reluctant? Since,"

Before he finished speaking, Zhuo Xiao waved his hands and interrupted him, "30% benefit is 30% benefit. Zhuo Mou will do what he says. Please also Mrs. Helian to keep her promise, so as not to affect everyone's interests."

After hearing this, Mrs. Helian gave a low smile and said nothing. Helian is not a good thing outside of the family. When he was alive, he had tossed the smoke and miasma at home. If he had not filled the concubine room with refuge, how many concubines and concubines would be produced, he is now in the land of bliss, his own life. It feels more comfortable.

Zhuo Lian took the clay pot in his hand, poured the refined honey into the big urn, and then quickly sealed the urn so as not to lose the taste.

Fei Nian took a coarse porcelain bowl and sat at the table. He took a sip of Jinbo and smacked his lips. "Speaking of which, Helian is also considered a person with a face in Bianzhou. He didn't expect to get the wind right away, and the way to die is really unbelievable. It's decent, plus the news that was leaked by the minions, and the uproar in the city has become everyone's after-dinner conversation."

After washing his hands with warm water, Zhuo Lian grinned.

"Boss Fei is also a wise man, why is he confused in this stall? Ordinary people have gotten out of the disease and can't wait to hide them and never let others know. But Helian's family is different and everyone knows. Besides, you have said before that Mrs. Helian is very thoughtful, and now she is letting things ferment. If there is nothing tricky in it, she won’t believe a word."

Fei Nian reacted immediately, "You mean... Helian didn't die because of immediate wind?"

Zhuo Lian poured himself a glass of hawthorn wine, sipped it, and his apricot eyes flickered slightly, "A customer came to buy wine this morning, and said that all the spring dews in Zhuo’s wine shop have been sold out, and they will be concocted only a few months later. There are countless long-term workers under the Zhuo family, how could they make such a mistake? I can’t wait to deal with the medicinal liquor, but I can only explain one thing-something went wrong with that thing."

Hawthorn brewed for a short period of time, the taste is sour, but it is very palatable. She even drank a small cup and just wanted to talk, she saw Huan Shen pushing the door and walking into the kitchen. That handsome face was clouded with clouds. Crippling tight.

"Uncle, what's going on in the front hall?" When she brought Fei Nian to the backyard, there were not many customers in the store. Huanmu Qu's family was watching, and there shouldn't be any trouble.

Hei Miao stared at Fei Nian closely, and Huan Shen pressed his lips. He didn't understand why this person appeared in the backyard. What does he have to do with Zhuo Shi?

"Boss Fei is coming here, Huan has missed a long way to welcome him, please don't be offended."

Hearing that Huan Shen had come to see Boss Fei, Zhuo Lian's surprise gradually calmed down. Although Fei Nian lived in Bianzhou for many years, he was also the master of Yongping Hou Mansion. The three princes stood behind his uncle, who took the initiative to inquire. In reason.

Zhuo Lian didn't have any interest in anything other than wine making, and didn't want to cause trouble. He moved the big urn containing the honey wine, patted the dust on his palms, and said: "Sit down first. The drinks are all in the wooden cabinet. , Just take whatever you want to drink."

With that, she turned and left the kitchen, not forgetting to close the wooden door before leaving.

"Boss Fei has an extraordinary status. He came to the humble house several times. What is his intention?" Huan Shen asked in a deep voice.

Putting the coarse porcelain bowl on the table, Fei Nian frowned slightly, "Lieutenant Huan, I and Lianniang are friends at the end of the year. There is nothing wrong with you. You don't have to be so wary." After doing business for so many years, he has been with countless people. Although the young people in front of him can be called young and mature after dealing with them, they still have some clues between their words and deeds. If they practice for a while, they will be able to completely cover up their emotions.

"Although School Lieutenant Huan is young, he has already been appreciated by the three princes, and his future is limitless. You should be able to see that Fei has no intention of opposing you or the third prince." Fei Nian said with a sincere expression.

Huan Shen would not dispel his suspicion just because of the trivial words, but at this time he knew very well that he could not get the answer he wanted from Fei Nian’s mouth, and he would not waste any time at all. Please forgive me, boss Fei."

"These are all trivial matters. Captain Huan doesn't need to worry about it. When you return to the capital, remember to find a store with a good location. It is estimated that it will not be long before the Huan family wine will be sold to the roots of the imperial city."

Fei Nian laughed loudly, did not say any more, and walked out carrying the porcelain bottle.

It was New Year’s Eve in a blink of an eye, the wine shop did not open, Fu Shuhuan was busy in the kitchen, Zhuo Lian was holding the paste, preparing to stick the couplet on the door, she stepped on the low stool, and painted thickly on the wooden frame. There was a thick layer of white pulp. Before the position was adjusted, there was a sudden rush of footsteps behind him.

I saw Qu rushing into the backyard, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes, "Lianniang, your brother went to the street to buy firecrackers early in the morning. It has been two hours after a flash, and he hasn't returned. What should I do?"

Zhuo Lian hurriedly put down the basin, and said softly, "Brother Yi often goes hunting in the mountains, and he is strong and healthy. Ordinary people can't match him at all. He may be caught by a chore. He was delayed for a while, so my daughter will look for him. Don't worry about it."

She held Qu's arm, led the person into the house, and then turned and rushed out.

Before crossing the threshold, Huan Shen's arm was pulled, and the young man frowned, and said in a deep voice, "I will go with my sister-in-law. The two can also look after each other."

Upon seeing this, the Qu family hurriedly thanked him, and his complexion recovered a little bit. In any case, Huan Shen was the guardian of Bianzhou. There were so many ways to find people, and his help would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

I have been busy for a whole year. Most people will stay at home on New Year’s Eve and rarely walk outside. Qu Yi is filial in nature. If there is no accident, he will never delay it for too long, which usually caused Qu's worry.

At the moment, there was heavy snow on the horizon. Zhuo Lian wore a thick coat. His body was not cold, but his hands and feet were cold. She and Huan Shenlian searched several streets, but found nothing.

At the end, she flushed, resting against the wall, and looking up, she found that a dark shadow was approaching in the distance. It was Qu Yi who had disappeared for half a day, but there was a woman on his back. I don't know what his identity is.
