After marrying the sister next door

Chapter 38

Baicha turned her head and saw Anji standing in front of the house looking at her, she felt a beautiful smile on her face, and walked towards Anji lightly. Her home was at Anji's place.

A happy smile appeared in Anji's eyes, he took two steps forward and took his daughter-in-law's hand to go home, fastened the door and they went back to the house. Anji hugged his daughter-in-law and just wanted to express something affectionately, but the little thing didn't know if he didn't see it. To people, wow crying.

Angie rolled her eyes helplessly, well, I forgot about the light bulb.

Bai Cha looked amused, tiptoed and kissed An Ji lightly on the mouth to comfort her, then pushed her away and walked over to pick up the child.

The corners of Anji's lips raised slightly, and she walked over to see the little guy crying, tsk tsk, what a grievance, what did she say when she was repeatedly spoiled by little things.

Seeing Xiao Nanfeng sobbing in his daughter-in-law's arms, he stretched out a finger and smiled lightly on her forehead: "As for it, I see you are wronged." Then he hugged his daughter-in-law in his arms and let her go after taking advantage of it. Humming a ditty and walking towards the desk.

Bai Cha's face was pink and she gave An Ji a look. Could this man really restrain himself in front of the children?

Anji laid out white paper, rubbed ink and picked up a pen, and wrote out all the management regulations about the winery that he had thought about in his mind. There are no rules and regulations.

The village head went to the county government office the day before yesterday to hand over the list, and the county magistrate appointed Wang Fugui to take over. They all knew that Wang Fugui had gone to the county government office to take care of it, so they were not surprised by this result at all.

In this way, the village head of Dahe Village, the village head Zheng An, the king, and the five security chiefs San An and the two kings, the Wang family seems to be similar to the An family in terms of power division, but it is not the case in fact. The head of the village has been gaining prestige in the village for a long time. If the village head, Cunzheng, disagrees, there is no doubt that the victorious party will be An Shengcai.

One is that there are many people with the surname An in the village, and the other is that Wang Fugui, even though he is the village official, has done nothing to establish prestige among the villagers.

Not to mention the An family, how many of the Wang family would sincerely support Wang Fugui, it would be very difficult for Wang Fugui to make some achievements according to the current situation.

The village chief led the villagers to build dams, upgrade Dahe Village to a large village with hundreds of households, and proposed to build a winery. None of this made the villagers grateful. In the future, the various benefits that the village received from the wine shop will also be assigned to the village head. An Sheng should have thought of these things a long time ago, so he let Wang Fugui be elected as the village head. .

Tsk tsk, I have to say that the village head is an old fox, and Wang Fugui can't count on An Shengcai at all. Of course, for Dahe Village, An Shengcai will get better development.

Angela returned to her thoughts of running away, spread another piece of paper and began to write out the formula of medicinal wine in her mind. She was worried that she would not be able to remember it all after a long time. Only when they are combined together can the medicinal effects of the formula be exerted. Liangchao's text is in traditional Chinese characters. Just in case, she wrote it in simplified Chinese characters. The proportions of medicinal materials are marked in English. Even if it is stolen, it is not easy to crack it accurately.

The next day, the weather cleared up, and everyone in Dahe Village had smiles on their faces. They kept their crops if it didn’t rain. These days, they went to the river every day with umbrellas to watch. So, when I got up in the morning, the first thing I went to was the river. When the water level dropped, everyone felt relieved.

It's just that as the girls in the village who married to other villages took their children back to their natal homes, they brought back a shocking news. Many villages downstream of Dahe Village burst their dikes last night, and most of the farmland and houses were flooded.

The news quickly spread throughout the village. The villagers felt sorry for the villages where the embankment broke. After all, many girls in the village were married to nearby villages. They also worried about the disaster caused by the son-in-law. The villagers felt rejoicing at the same time. They built the embankment in advance, otherwise Dahe Village would have the same result as the downstream villages. After all, Dahe Village was the first to be flooded in previous years, and the disaster was the hardest, and the downstream villages were sometimes even fine.

It's just that the development of the situation was beyond everyone's expectations. Two days later, the flooded villages in the downstream sued Dahe Village. Their village pays.

Anji was annoyed when he heard this, and before co-authoring, in their eyes, Dahe Village was a disaster relief for them.

As a result, after the newly appointed county magistrate conducted an investigation, he directly slapped those who sued the officials with [-] big boards and threw them out, and ordered the removal of the village chiefs of these villages. This result is naturally a big hit.

The next day, the clerk of the yamen workshop brought people to Dahe Village to inspect the dam. The village chief took five security chiefs to receive the people from the yamen. Only then did An Sheng see the clerk ask how the dam was built, and immediately asked An Yuan to go home and get a book. Then he explained the process of building the dam in detail. If the dams along the river were built according to the method of their village in the future, the possibility of being flooded would be greatly reduced.

After hearing this, the official of the workshop nodded frequently, and said a few words of praise without hesitation. At the same time, he sighed in his heart that Dahe Village could find such a good method of building dams from the book. After returning home, he truthfully told the newly appointed magistrate report.

Anji later heard that it was Wang Dalang who incited members of the clan to unite with other villages to sue the officials. A smile appeared on the corner of Anji's mouth. She almost forgot about Wang Dalang. She used to treat him as an opponent because of her mistakes. Lord, after this incident, Wang Dalang will not become the object of everyone's hatred in Erhe Village. After all, the bad nature of people is that they seldom reflect on their own mistakes, but will anger the person who instigated them to sue the government in the first place.

Sure enough, within a few days, news came from Erhe Village that Wang Dalang had left with his wife, but no one knew where he went.

Anji is busy drying medicinal materials every day, and the two newly built west wing rooms have been completely reduced to a warehouse for dispensing medicines. Those people are becoming more and more proficient in collecting medicines. Now she pays more than one or two taels of silver every day. She couldn't afford it, so she handed in the 160 taels of money in advance, and after getting back the contract, she told the village head about the actual situation, and then advanced the money from the village head for the purchase of medicinal materials. The record is clear, just take out the corresponding medicinal materials to the winery.

Now, all the money invested in the winery is put under the management of the village chief, and all expenses are kept by An Yi. She will officially take over the winery after it is built.

An Sheng and An Kang returned to Dahe Village two days before the autumn harvest. An Sheng came to Anji's house to return the car. He briefly told her about the process of inviting someone, and then said, "The village chief asked you to go to his house." Then hurried home.

There was a smile on the corner of An Ji's mouth, knowing that this guy wanted a wife, he went back to the house and talked to Bai Cha before heading to the village chief's house.

The winemaker An Sheng invited back was Li Chun, 42 years old, a native of Qing’an Prefecture. Master Li used to be a winemaker in a winery in Fucheng. His daughter-in-law remarried, and almost all of the family's property was covered by the lawsuit. Fucheng was too painful for him, so when An Sheng and Ankang approached him, they agreed to bring his wife and only granddaughter to settle in their small village.

When Anji arrived, the village chief was talking to Master Li in the main room. Anji smiled and nodded to say hello, and then sat on the seat opposite to Master Li. Next to Master Li was a woman, who was about three years old and had a pretty face. The child, this child looked around curiously with his eyes wide open, and he didn't make noise or disturb the adults, so it could be seen that he was a very polite child.

An Sheng looked at Li Chun and said with a smile: "This is my niece An Ji, who is also the head manager of the winery. From now on, she will be in charge of the winery's affairs. Brother Li can tell her anything." He told Li Chun was about the same age, and just talked about what happened to him, and he was very sad. The loss of a middle-aged son is still the only son. This blow is not something everyone can bear.

Surprise flashed in Li Chun's vicissitudes of life eyes, he didn't expect that the distillery in Dahe Village would be run by a woman, so he suppressed the shock in his heart and talked to the manager of the distillery.

After Anji smiled and said a few words of welcome, she handed over the right to speak to the village head. She listened to the two middle-aged uncles talking, and occasionally interjected a sentence to show her existence. As for Li Chun's craftsmanship She believed that An Sheng had already investigated clearly, otherwise An Sheng would not have brought him back, and she still believed in him.

Li Chun heard that the village head let them live in the wing of his house temporarily, thanked them with a smile and said: "Since my wife and granddaughter have chosen to settle in Guicun, we naturally want to have our own yard. If it is convenient, please ask the village head to share one with me." Homestead, by the way help me find a few people to build the house, I want to take my family to live in it before the cold."

On the way, Ansheng and Ankang, two young men, talked about the situation in Dahe Village. He just saw that it is a good place with mountains and rivers. He sold the house before he came, and the money in his hand is enough to settle here. Give him two taels of wages, and even if he has no land, he can live well here. In the future, he will not ask for anything, but only hopes that he and his wife can raise their only granddaughter here safely.

An Shengcai readily agreed after hearing the words: "That's easy to say. Brother Li will come with me to have a look later. You can choose any house site you like. There are masons who specialize in building houses in the village. It takes less than 20 days to build three houses. Finished, by the way, you and I will go to the county government tomorrow to handle the household registration."

Then he glanced at the beautiful girl and asked, "Brother, is your granddaughter going to settle down with you normally, or do you want to set up a female household?" He said this because there was only such a girl left in the Li family. Isn't the Li family going to be extinct? After all, from the conversation just now, Li Chun has no intention of adopting.

Li Chun was taken aback by these words, female householder, looking at her granddaughter, she couldn't make a decision for a moment, not sure if she really wants to leave this burden to her granddaughter.

An Sheng didn't know what was going on, pointed at Anji and said with a smile: "The niece of my family is a female householder, and now she is married and has children. Don't you think the incense of my cousin's family will continue?"

Anji rolled his eyes upwards when he heard the words, what he said could easily be misunderstood.

After hearing this, Li Chun and his wife looked at Anji in surprise. She is married and has a child.

An Ji knew at a glance that they had misunderstood, so she explained aloud that the child was adopted by her, not by her and her wife.

Li Chun and his wife were deeply thoughtful when they heard the words, and it seemed that it was not impossible. They looked at each other and decided to discuss it later.

After dinner, An Ji and the village chief, Master Li, went to the address of the winery. They wanted to hear how the winery should be built. After all, the winery should have a clear division of labor, where to build the cellar for wine making, and where to build the winery. The wine cellar should be particular about where it is used as a drying hall or something. This is why it is necessary to invite winemakers to build a winery. But I don't know why.

Along the way, Li Chun told the village chief and Anji how to build a winemaking workshop. Anji and the village chief nodded frequently to show that they were educated. They really don’t know if the Taoist master here doesn’t tell them.

Brewing needs grain. After buying the grain, clean it and then dry it in the sun. Therefore, you need a drying hall, which is a place dedicated to drying grain. You need workers who clean grain and dry grain. As for how many people are needed, it depends on the size of the winery and the yield rate. To decide.

Wine is food, and koji is the bone of wine. Good koji makes good wine, and koji cannot be made without medicine. If the wine is to taste good, it must be made with koji, and medicine koji is the best among wine koji.

Anji was really curious when he heard it. It turns out that medicinal materials are needed to make distiller's yeast. The corner of his mouth slightly raised his voice: "An Sheng should have told you that the distillery will mainly sell medicinal wine in the future, so just tell me what Master Li needs for medicinal materials." Her family now has a lot of medicinal materials.

Hearing this, Li Chun stroked his beard and nodded in agreement. He really needed some medicinal materials. In the past, the steward of the winery went to the pharmacy to buy them. This job was really the job of Chief Steward Anji.

Thinking flashed through his eyes, he looked at Anji and asked: "Ms. Li will also brew rice wine in the future, I don't know if the chief manager needs rice wine to make medicinal wine."

As soon as An Ji heard this, she immediately expressed the need. Some medicinal wine recipes really need rice wine to brew.

An Sheng just heard the two finished talking, and motioned to Brother Li to continue. He just listened with gusto and wanted to know what the next process of wine making is. He just summed it up in his heart. 20 people have jobs to do, plus Anji has taught her people in the first insurance to collect herbs. If there are more types of work, wouldn’t every family in the village come to work, and every family will have a fixed monthly job? Income, wouldn't this day get better and better.

If Anji knew what the village chief thought, he would definitely applaud him. He is really a good village chief who always thinks about the people.

Li Chun smiled and continued: "The next step is to stir the medicinal koji into the grain and steam it until it is half-cooked. This requires steaming, and then the ingredients and the half-cooked grain are mixed and put into the cellar. Here it is necessary to stir the grain." The worker...the last step is to cook the wine mother, here needs a fireman..."
