Chapter 012: Into the Wolf's Den Late at Night
The next day, Cui Geng woke up early and walked around the street, and after drinking a bowl of mutton soup and eating two Hu cakes at a stall on the street, he hurried home.
When he got home, he went into the brewery, where he tinkered with himself for almost a whole day, until dusk, when he came out of the brewery with two jars, one large and one small.
After a simple wash and a new set of clothes, he took Chu Jiu out of Zhouxifang and got up to Chongwenfang.
Chongwenfang is located in the east of the city, close to Qingyuan County, and the mansions of Song Wen and Dong Yan are all in this square.
Cui Geng went to Chongwenfang, naturally to visit Dong Yan of the county.
……
……
Song Wen's mansion is also in Chongwenfang, only two alleys away from Dong Yan's mansion in the county.
At night, although the evening breeze is cool, it is not as refreshing as Song Wen's heart at this time.
Mei Ji came to visit late at night as promised, which really made Song Wen's mood beautiful.
He led Mei Ji to the east wing, asked his subordinates to scald a pot of wine, and after heating a few side dishes, he withdrew all the subordinates outside the east wing.
There is a huge bed in the room, and there are wine and food on the small table with low legs in the square, the two of them took off their shoes and boots and sat cross-legged on the couch, Song Wen personally poured a glass of wine for Mei Ji, and said with a smile: "Mei Ji, this wine today is Cui Erlang's Mulan Spring Wine, which was privately intercepted by the Tang shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Building for the old man." Come on, let's also taste the Mulan spring wine that is sold out in Qingyuan County. ”
Mei Ji sighed, for some reason, seeing Song Wen's situation tonight, she was inexplicably a little nervous.
But as soon as he heard the three words of Mulan Chun, the greed in his heart instantly overcame the inexplicable apprehension in his heart, and then he raised his wine glass and smiled at Song Wenjiao, and said, "Since my father-in-law has this Yaxing, the slave family will accompany you to drink two glasses." ”
After that, he raised his glass and touched it slightly, and took a sip.
Song Wen was really in a lot of wine tonight, and invited Mei Ji for a cup back and forth, and the three pots of Mulan spring wine were already in his stomach.
Although Mei Ji controlled the amount of alcohol tonight, how could the strength of Mulan Spring Wine be comparable to the rice wine she drank on weekdays? At this time, she was hot and dry, her cheeks were red, and she seemed to be a little overwhelmed.
But fortunately, she was still three points strong and seven points sober, and she did not forget the purpose of her trip tonight, and then put down the wine glass in her hand and said softly: "Father-in-law, now the Cui family's puppy's Mulan spring wine has made our family's Mulan burn unsalable, and the shopkeepers of many wine shops and restaurants have come to the wine shop to cancel their subscriptions, and even Tian Wenkun from the North and South Warehouses has also stated that he will no longer sell wine for us in the future." It is estimated that there will be two more days, waiting for Cui Erlang to build a good wine shop and recruit people to expand the production of Mulan Chun, then our Fang's wine shop will wait to close. ”
Speaking of this, she paused, looked up at Song Wen, and asked, "Father-in-law, didn't you say yesterday that when the slave family came over, you would tell the slave family how to get the secret recipe of this Mulan spring wine from Cui Erlang?" ”
"Yes, although the old man doesn't like this Cui Erlang either, I have to say that this Mulan Spring Wine is really a good wine that is rare in a hundred years!"
Song Wen drank the last sip of residual wine in the cup, praised it sincerely, squinted the pair of triangular eyes, and said: "The old man can understand it, who can brew this Mulan spring wine, it is equivalent to holding a cornucopia in his hand." As for this way, there must be one! But Maggie, the old man asks you, if I help you get this secret recipe for Mulan Spring Wine, how will you thank me? ”
"The slave family is willing to take out fifty percent of the Fang family's liquor shop, no, sixty percent of it to give to the righteous father!"
Mei Ji was ruthless, reluctant that the child couldn't trap the wolf, and replied happily: "As long as you can get the secret recipe of Mulan spring wine for the slave family." ”
"Sixty percent of them?"
Song Wen raised his eyebrows, wiped his lips, and said with a smile: "You are more powerful than your useless embroidered pillow." But ......."
As soon as he said this, Song Wen got up from the bed, stepped over the small table with low legs and sat next to Mei Ji, suddenly reached out and grabbed her fragrant shoulder, squinted his triangular eyes and said with a dry smile: "Sixty percent and people, I want it!" ”
"Huh?"
Mei Ji's head buzzed, her body stiffened instantly, and she shouted in shock: "Father-in-law, you... What do you mean? ”
Song Wen hugged Mei Ji's fragrant shoulders more and more tightly, and said with a smile: "Mei Ji, you are such a smart person, why can't you understand the meaning of the old man's words?" The old man said again, I want sixty percent of the winery, and I want you too! ”
"No... No, you can't! ”
Mei Ji finally understood why Song Wen wanted to go to the house late at night, and sure enough, as Fang Ming said, this old thing didn't have a good heart, and he had something to do with himself.
I saw her struggling desperately on her shoulders, trying to break free from Song Wen's embrace, but Song Wen hugged her too tightly, and the strength of Mulan Spring Wine came up, which made her a little powerless.
Damn old thief!
Mei Ji wanted to cry without tears in her heart, even if she made peace with Fang Ming, it was also a love affair between the two, where would she be interested in Song Wen, a dry and thin old thing. No matter how cheap she is, it's not just a man who can stay there.
Seeing that she couldn't break free, she had to beg pitifully with tears: "Father-in-law, you are the father-in-law of the slave family, and the slave family is also a married man, how can you and I do this unethical thing?" ”
"Hehe, but the old man never treated you as a righteous daughter at all, Mei Ji."
Mei Ji's pitiful, pear blossom with rain made Song Wen's heart move more and more, and the restlessness that had been accumulated for a long time in her heart instantly burst out, unconsciously put her mouth to her ear, gently took her earlobe, and whispered: "Moreover, you and Fang Ming didn't have a wedding ceremony, where did you say that a married woman came from?" Besides, if you rely on Fang Ming's embroidered pillow, it is better to follow the old man to get more affordable. Do you think that in this Qingyuan County, who can shelter you from the wind and rain, and who can support you? ”
"No," Mei Ji turned her head away, forcibly avoided Song Wen's mouth, and cried, "Father-in-law, don't do this, in case you alarm Mrs. Song, how will you let the slave family enter and leave your house in the future." ”
However, Mei Ji moved out of Song Wen's wife, which did not make Song Wen stop, but aroused Song Wen's anger, only to see him raise his hand and wave violently-
Syllable!
A slap slammed into Maggie's face.
"You dare to threaten the old man with that yellow-faced woman?"
Song Wen's triangular eyes were fierce, and he shouted: "The old man wishes that yellow-faced woman would die!" But the eldest brother of the yellow-faced mother-in-law's family has passed away in the past few days, hehe, it is estimated that he will stay at his mother's house for several days. Mei Ji, the old man will leave the words here tonight, if you refuse to obey me, don't talk about the secret recipe of Mulan Spring Wine, believe it or not, I let you and Fang Ming's green-haired turtle have no place to stand in Qingyuan County! ”
And it worked!
As soon as these words came out, Mei Ji was inexplicably stunned, and her body stopped struggling, but covered her aching cheeks and looked at Song Wen in a daze.
Song Wen was overjoyed when he saw this, his voice gradually became gentle, and he said, "Mei Ji, if you follow the old man, who else dares to bully you in this Qingyuan County?" Moreover, I promise to help you get the secret recipe for Mulan Spring Wine. Weigh it yourself! ”
Mei Ji didn't say a word, and Song Wen's words made her heart fluctuate.
Now the facts are in front of you, if you follow Song Wen, not only will you have a big backer behind you to support you, but you will also be able to get the secret recipe of Mulan Spring Wine. If you don't comply, you will not only lose your backing, but also lose everything you have.
No!
I can't live without a winery, without a mansion!
I don't want to live that poor life of being on the move and not having three meals!
There was a voice in the back of Meggie's heart screaming hysterically......
"Fang Ming, it's not that I'm sorry for you, it's just that you're too useless!"
Mei Ji lowered her head deeply, and silently read in her heart: "Fang Ming, since you are so useless, why should I guard your chastity?" And before I was with you, I was touched by Cui Lao Ghost, you shouldn't mind what Song Wen and I do, right? After all, I'm also for our family, you should get used to it, right? ”
"Have you figured it out?" Song Wen's eyes were burning and he stared at Mei Ji fiercely.
Maggie didn't look up, but she sighed softly.
Apparently agreed!
Song Wen was suddenly excited, and this time he finally took her in his arms openly, held Mei Ji's beautiful cheeks with both hands, kissed her wildly, and said excitedly: "That's right, those who know the times are Junjie, I will say, you are more courageous than your soft-footed goods!" ”
"I hope that my father-in-law can keep his promise and treat the slave family and you ......"
"This is natural, how can the old man not believe in his words? Besides, Fang's Distillery still has sixty percent of me! ”
"Well, I hope my father-in-law will take pity on the slave family!"
"Hehe, that's nature, come, Mei Ji, untie the old man's clothes, why don't we take advantage of the fun on this big couch to have a little rain in Wushan?"
"......"
……
……
Although the movement in the Song Mansion was large, it could not be transmitted to the Dong Mansion separated by two alleys.
Dong Mansion, in the Flower Hall.
Cui Geng put two wine jars, one large and one small, on the table, and then poured out a bowl each, and asked Dong Yan, who was sitting at the top of the hall, to ask for his hand: "Lord County, you can taste it, what is the difference between these two bowls of wine?" ”
