C9 Selling Liquor on the Street

After the fruit wine was brewed, Liao Qiuju asked Mrs Zhao for some white sugar to increase the sweetness of the fruit wine.

Mrs Zhao was wrapped by Liao Qiuju, and after a moment of doubt, she gave the sugar to Liao Qiuju. She seemed to understand why the sugar was dwindling so recently, and she glanced at Liao Qiuju with a hidden bitterness.

Early the next morning, Liao Qiuju picked up a jug of longan wine and followed Mrs Zhao into the town.

Mrs Zhao also brought some handkerchiefs and scarves, which she had sewn during her free time. This time, she was going to the Zhao Family to bring back her son, so she took the opportunity to sell them.

Once the two mother and daughter arrived at Green Bamboo Town, they went straight to the cloth farm. Madame Zhao had known the Lady Boss of this cloth farm since childhood. The Lil 'Red was a saleswoman, so it only took a few words before everything was over.

"Is this the autumn chrysanthemum? After not seeing her for a long time, she had grown even more beautiful. "If it wasn't for the engagement, I would even want to say your daughter for my son." The Lady Boss said to Lady Zhao with a smile.

Mrs Zhao's face was bitter as she said, "My daughter is suffering. This marriage has already been annulled."

The Lady Boss was shocked, so she asked about the reason. The two women chatted endlessly. Mrs Zhao was depressed, but she also needed someone to listen to her. Liao Qiuju squatted by the entrance of the cloth manor and hawked the fruit wine.

The pedestrians passing by came and went, but only a few stopped in front of Liao Qiuju.

"Selling wine, newly brewed fruit wine, longan fruit wine." Liao Qiujie shouted in a slightly hoarse voice. She had never done this job before.

She had already humiliated herself by selling fruit wine in the streets and alleys, but no one paid attention to her. It was truly shameful.

"This wine is made from the Dragon Eye?" A man wearing a grey robe stopped in front of Liao Qiuhua.

Liao Qiuju immediately said, "Right, it was brewed with fresh longan wine. It tastes very good, and it doesn't burn the throat. Whoever drinks it will know."

The man's long hair was tied in a bun with only a strip of cloth. His long shirt was washed clean, but it looked as if it was always covered with a layer of dust. He carried several scrolls in one hand and two cabbages in the other. He gave off the vibe of a poor scholar.

"Is that so? Then, how would he sell it? Can you taste it? " This was the first time that he had seen the Dragon Eye Wine, so he was quite curious.

"Of course." Liao Qiuhua opened the jar of wine and then said, "I only have one mouthful, don't try to trick me into eating it."

Jiang Teng felt embarrassed, was he that kind of person? Well, he was poor now, but he could afford it.

Liao Qiuju gave him a sip from the wine bottle. Jiang Teng carefully savored the taste and frowned.

Liao Qiuju knew he was tasting wine, so she said, "Taste the alcohol with your tongue, taste the wine with your throat, and taste the smell of alcohol with your nose. "Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand. You have to take responsibility for making my wine unable to be sold."

Jiang Teng froze for a moment, then said: "You're right, I didn't expect a little girl like you to know how to taste wine. This wine is not bad. It's more suitable for women to drink.

"Fifty taels for a catty." Liao Qiuju heaved a sigh of relief.

"Give me two catties." Jiang Teng said as he took out a bunch of money.

"Where's your wine pot? I'll fill it up for you. I guarantee that it won't be small. " Liao Qiuju took the copper coin and said smilingly.

Jiang Teng said, "I don't have it with me. Wait a moment, I'll go borrow one."

With that, he left in large strides, not afraid that Liao Qiuju would take the opportunity to run away and embezzle a bunch of his money.

"Not only is he a poor, but he is also a silly Elementary Scholar." Liao Qiuju shook her head.

After a while, Jiang Teng came back with two more yamen runners behind him, a man dressed as a young master from an aristocratic family.

"I'll use this to pretend." Jiang Teng handed over a wine gourd.

Liao Qiuju looked gloomily at the three people behind her. If she ran away, she might be wanted by the yamen runner. This Elementary Scholar was really fierce!

After filling two catties of wine, the young master asked for wine to taste.

"These three are my friends. Listen to me buy some wine and come over to take a look." If they think it's good, they want to buy some, so you serve them. " Jiang Teng said softly, opening the bottle gourd's mouth and taking a big gulp.

"Is this the good wine you were talking about?" Made with longan wine? You can really drink it? " The young master didn't dare to believe it, but seeing that Jiang Teng was drinking happily, he swallowed his saliva.

"Ah! Benefactor, you, why are you here?" Mrs Zhao just came out, and when she saw Jiang Teng, she called out softly.

Liao Qiuju looked at Jiang Teng in surprise and immediately thought of a character like the teacher.
