Early the next morning, Du Zhongxiao still came to Han's foot shop and went to buy sake lees with Han Lian.

When he arrived at the foot shop, Han Lian waited there early. Seeing Du Zhongxiao's arrival, Han Lian pointed to a board lane beside him: "I specially borrowed this car today, let's buy more wine lees and make more wine." In the past two days, the reputation has spread, and many people who have come to the store to buy wine have been loaded back with a few catties. It's a few dozen pounds a day, but it's not enough to sell. ”

After thinking about it all night last night, Du Zhongxiao was much more cheerful, looked at the car and smiled: "This is the best." After a few days, when we make money, we will buy a car and a donkey ourselves, so we don't have to work so hard. ”

Han Lian couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "That's the best." Since the virtuous nephew has such a wonderful method, he should naturally do a big job. Dozens of catties of wine a day, just to make ends meet, what can you do? When we get big and make money, we also open a restaurant. ”

"Well, that's what I said!" Du Zhongxiao said as he went to pull the cart.

The cars of this era are all wooden wheels, and it is extremely difficult to pull them up. Han Lian took out a shirt and hung it next to it to help Du Zhongxiao.

When he arrived at the door of the "Yao Jiazheng Store", Director Tang was waiting there early. Seeing Han Lian and Du Zhongxiao pulling the car, Director Tang smiled and said, "You have a wonderful method of making wine from the lees, and you will make a big deal in a few days, and today you pulled the car upside down." Brother Han, I have some spare time these two days, and I will also come to your store to have a glass of wine. I have heard that the wine you make from sake lees is extraordinarily powerful. ”

Han Lian smiled and said, "It should be, it should be." The supervisor comes, not to mention anything else, wine and meat are everything. ”

As he spoke, Han Lian complained bitterly in his heart. Originally, I wanted to make sake from sake lees, but the less people knew about it, the better, but I didn't want to make it known to everyone in just a few days. Speaking of which, I can't hide this thing, there is a ban on alcohol there, and I don't know how many people are staring at the people who sell alcohol. You sell wine here, and if you don't tell the source, how can the business continue?

Director Tang called the two servants out, weighed the lees for Han Lian and Du Zhongxiao, and loaded them in the car.

When I was counting the money, two middle-aged men in ragged clothes, a man and a woman, suddenly came from a distance, and when they saw the car with sake lees parked here, they opened their mouths and scolded: "These thieves who make black money are dragging the car to pull the lees today, have their consciences been eaten by dogs?" We, the poor people, all rely on the wine lees poured out of the restaurant to make a living, and you have bought them, what do we eat? How can you earn this money with peace of mind? ”

Hearing this, Director Tang couldn't help frowning and ordered the little guy to drive the people away.

Du Zhongxiao watched the two of them being driven into the dense fog of the early morning, and inexplicably felt a pain in his heart, and couldn't help frowning.

A few days ago, my father was one of the bad people who grabbed the sake lees in the morning, and survived by relying on the sake lees poured out of the restaurant. These days, I only care about making money by steaming wine from sake lees, but I forget about them.

These two may be a couple, although the words are a little ugly, but I am afraid that it is a last resort. Perhaps, they have a child at home who is waiting to be fed, waiting for them to take two handfuls of lees back and talk about it for a living. Perhaps, there are still old people at home......

Du Zhongxiao didn't dare to think about it anymore. Will your own business break the livelihood of many people?

While thinking wildly, Han Lian and Director Tang over there had calculated the money, and the two dragged the car back to Du Zhongxiao's house one after the other.

After Han Lian left, Du Zhongxiao put the wine lees into the steamer. After thinking about it, I felt uneasy, so I asked my parents to look at the steamer and went out by myself.

After these days, the parents have been able to take care of the steamed wine. It's not that difficult, just look at the fire under the stove and change the barrel when it's full. Steaming sake from sake lees, the most complex wine-making process is skipped, and the process is extremely simple.

After strolling outside for a while, Du Zhongxiao unconsciously came to the door of Han's foot shop.

At this time, there were no guests, Xiaowu Shun'er was cleaning up the tables and stools, and Han Yueniang was lying on the counter sorting out the accounts.

Seeing Du Zhongxiao enter the store, Han Yueniang raised her head and said, "Brother is here." Did you have breakfast? If not, I'll bring it to you. ”

Du Zhongxiao looked worried, and said casually: "I have used it." ”

While talking, he went to the counter and watched Han Yueniang flip through the account book there.

Han Yueniang flipped for a while, then raised her head: "My brother is worried, if you have something on your mind, you might as well say it and listen to it." The so-called one person counts the short, two people count the long, and I also help come up with ideas. ”

Du Zhongxiao sighed: "It's nothing." Today, when I went to the 'Yaojiazheng store' to buy sake lees, I happened to meet two poor people, because we bought sake lees, they had less food and insulted there. I think that although we are not at fault for buying sake lees, it is also true that we do not have the food of those bad people, so I am troubled. ”

Han Yueniang thought for a while, then smiled: "What's so difficult about this? Later, when I went to buy sake lees, I took some out of the money from the sale and bought rice to cook porridge and sent it. Wouldn't it be better for us to buy sake lees to make sake and give it back to others there? ”

Du Zhongxiao clapped his hands: "Sister, this method is good!" In this way, we have done business and helped the poor! ”

After a dream of a thousand years, the soul came to this world of a thousand years, Du Zhongxiao thought about some things differently from his previous life, and did things but sought peace of mind. Whether there are ghosts or gods in the world or whether there is reincarnation, he can't figure it out, and he doesn't think about it, but it's always right to do more good deeds. Buying sake lees and coming back to make wine robbed of the food of the poor and miserable people, how can Du Zhongxiao feel at ease?

If you buy sake lees and come back, take a little out of the profits from selling the sake, buy rice and go to soup porridge, you will have the best of both worlds. The money from making their own sake is made, and the bad people who live on sake lees will not be deprived of food sources, and they will be safer. There is wine in the lees, and it is not for nothing that the bad people covet the lees to fill their stomachs, and it is not for nothing that they eat too much and get drunk and want their lives.

After thinking about it, Du Zhongxiao felt that this method was excellent, and said to Han Yueniang: "That's it." Tomorrow we will buy sake lees again, and by the way, we will bring two buckets of porridge, and you will go with you to give porridge to the bad people. It's good for us to make money, but don't cut off other people's lives. ”

On the second day, before dawn, Han Yueniang cooked two large buckets of white porridge in the store, put them in the car, and pulled them with her father and Du Zhongxiao.

A waning moon hung in the sky, looming, and everything looked hazy. Du Zhongxiao and Han Lian pulled the car, and Han Yueniang followed closely on the side, and walked towards the "Yao Family Store" together.

The car was full of two large vats of white porridge, steaming hot. The porridge was cooked by Han Yueniang who got up early, and Du Zhongxiao drank this porridge like Han Lian's breakfast. Han Yueniang is kind-hearted, although it is for charity, the porridge is still thickly cooked.

After a while, Han Yueniang walked to Du Zhongxiao's side and whispered: "I've grown so big, it's the first time I've given porridge." Speaking of which, this is the first good deed I have done, and for no reason I feel a little panicked. ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "Since you are doing good deeds, what are you panicking about." We'll pretend to be sake lees for a while, and you will give porridge there, don't mess up. ”

"How come, I naturally know it in my heart!" Han Yueniang said and stepped aside.

When Director Tang saw Du Zhongxiao and Han Lian coming, he said with a smile: "It's a little cold this morning, but I didn't expect to arrive earlier than usual." At a glance, he saw Han Yueniang following, and said, "Why is Han Xiaoniang here today?" How much did you buy? ‘

Han Yueniang said: "It's not! I heard my father say that yesterday when he bought sake lees, some bad people complained that they had less food, so he cooked two buckets of porridge today. We use sake lees to make wine to earn a living, and it is not beautiful to cut off the livelihood of others, so give them some porridge to seek peace of mind. ”

Director Tang nodded again and again after hearing this: "The little lady is a good person!" Do many good deeds, and you will surely be rich in the future. ”

Du Zhongxiao put down the car and watched Director Tang help Han Lian lift the porridge bucket downward, a little distracted. In this era, Buddhism was popular among the people, and the idea of karma was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the good act of soup porridge was very popular.

In the past few days, Du Zhongxiao and Han Lian have come to buy sake lees every day, and the bad people who are looking for food here have found the pattern, and they are coming earlier and earlier. 、

Not long after they were older, a sick couple brought a child of five or six years old.

Seeing the visitor, Director Tang hurriedly greeted: "Brother Cai, sister-in-law Cai, you came here today by coincidence. This is the shopkeeper of Han's foot shop and the petty officials of Du Juren's family, who used to buy sake lees here and go back to make wine. They bought sake lees, and they didn't have anything to eat, so today they cooked two large vats of porridge to fill your stomachs. The porridge is still hot, hurry up and eat two bowls. ”

The family of three listened and hardly believed their ears. Yesterday, like others, they cursed the Han family and the Du family, and bought sake lees to make wine and cut off everyone's appetite, and they will definitely not be rewarded. Unexpectedly, in one day, they came to give porridge.

Hurriedly stepped forward, Han Yueniang was about to serve porridge, and suddenly said: "Oops, but it's not good, how can you drink porridge without a bowl?" ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly said, "It's okay, my family is guarding here, I'll go home and get the bowl, fortunately, it's not far away!" ”

After speaking, she turned around and ran away, seeing Han Yueniang stunned.

Du Zhongxiao, who was loading wine lees on the side, listened to it and said, "But I forgot this section, and I want a bowl for soup porridge." Otherwise, tomorrow we won't cook porridge and steam some steamed buns, saving a lot of effort. ”

Han Lian said vaguely: "After today, the people who come know the soup kitchen, and they will bring bowls." Porridge and rice are filling, not comparable to steamed buns. ”

Porridge with rice and water, how can a big bowl be a little full. If it is steamed steamed buns, it seems that these people who have not eaten a full meal for many days, I don't know how many times it takes to feel something. At that time, one person will have one steamed bun, and he will not be hungry, and he will consume a lot of money, so he will not do so in charity.

Du Zhongxiao also understood after a while. The so-called promotion of rice and hatred, this kind of thing of charity is still good in moderation.

After a while, the previous woman panted and brought two broken large bowls over, and asked Han Yueniang to fill the porridge, and the family ate a bowl at Bian Meimei before filling it again and bringing it home. It turned out that she only had these two bowls at home, but there were three people, so she had to do so.
