To Rule in a Turbulent World

Qiao Qiao said: "Come to see you, your second wife's family can't live a long time. After a few days, I'm thinking about joining you."

Miao Youmiao laughed and said, "I don't have anything else here, but there are many houses. You can come and choose one."

You Miao stomped her feet and took a set of pots and a box of tea. Qiao took a look around and shook her head and said, "This is the Zhuangzi that Erjie bought in the past? It's not bad." He nodded again toward Li Zhihuan. , Said, "You are busy with you, you don't have to wait, I'm his cousin, you can be your own person."

So who is Qiao? Originally the second owner of Shaoyuan Tea House, Qiao Ke'er's father and mother gave birth to four children in the past. During the Jiangnan plague, the eldest daughter and son-in-law died of the illness, leaving the world alone, leaving an orphan named Fang Qiao.

After the death of his parents, Qiao Xun, the long-haired son of Qiao Shaoyuan Tea House, took over the tea house and married a local woman named Bai Shi.

The third daughter Qiao Ke'er marries You Dechuan, who is You Miao's mother.

The youngest son Qiao Yan, just in time to catch up with the decline of the tea house when he was born, he was quite a bit like You Miao when he was a teenager. They all said that his nephew was like Wu, Qiao Ye and You Miao were only five years old. Yes, I used to live in Biyu Mountain Villa when I was a kid. You and Miao look like brothers. They are all carved in pink and jade.

What's even more rare is that Qiao Xun's father and mother became infected with plague not long after he was born, Qiao Ke'er invited Qiao Xun to a nurse, which was Sun Xun. This Sun Yan was also a mother-in-law of You Miao. According to the practice of the Jiangnan clan, she drank the milk of the same mother-in-law. Since she was a child, she has been a good brother. She must take care of each other on weekdays.

Therefore, Qiao Ye and You Miao are both relatives and playmates from a young age. They are brothers and sisters, and needless to say, You Miao went home and later came to Jiangbo Villa. I wanted to see Qiao Ye first. Miscellaneous, the head aunt is not easy to deal with. It ’s also a nuisance to go there, it ’s better to settle down first and let the villa grow to a large scale before letting Qiao come over.

Qiao Qiao is also a talented person, with astronomical counts, four books and five classics, Qimen Jiajia, and sacred tea ceremony. Congratulations, when You Miao went to Beijing to study, Qiao Yan was still in charge of the account of Shaoyuan Tea House, and she calculated and calculated daily, and then she came out and walked around.

Xi Youmiao took a black and white clay pot, one black and two white cups, and said, "I just happen to have some Junshan silver fog."

"No," Qiao said, "you drink mine, I brought some tea for you to taste."

Qiao Qiao took a packet of tea from his sleeve and said, "This is a little frozen-top oolong I hid the year before."

Wu Youmiao didn't use her mother's married tea set, took these two cups to make tea, and asked, "How is your family?"

Qiao Yan sighed, but said helplessly: "It's not like a few years ago, it's always busy, and business is not as good as one year. As I see it, close the tea shop, or open a **** shop. You see The second son, at the end of the year, had no choice but to plant tea. He had to pay the price of the person who collected the tea, even if the whole was cleared. He refused to persuade him to sell it in his own tea house. "

You Miao knows that the business of Shaoyuan Tea House is not good. Part of the reason is that his father You Dechuan is too good at doing business. Now the tea merchants in Jiangnan are rushing for business and are about to kill and set fire. Tea merchants all colluding together?

He used to listen to his mother and his aunt a few times when he was young. He didn't understand it at that time, but now he understands it.

"Do you all work together to reduce the price of tea in our house?" You Miao asked: "Let Eryi sell it."

"You are the elm head." Qiao Qin said uneasily: "If it makes sense, it is not the current situation. Just say a few more words to him, it is just like killing him."

Miao Lei was amused and said, "Where is my cousin?"

Qiao Jun said, "Still that way, arguing with that woman every day, you ca n’t marry. When your mother goes, no one is pressing the tea house, and your second aunt is getting more and more on the nose, giving me money every month It's like sending a flower bark. "

Wu Youmiao said, "Either you come and live with me, I don't think you should leave."

Qiao Qiao didn't answer, looked at it with a cup, and smiled, "These cups are interesting."

Xi Youmiao joked: "I bought it in Beijing, calling it a Tai Chi pot, spreading goods, two or two silver."

The Taichi cup was filled with tea, and You Miao took a sip. Although there was nothing special in the beginning, after the entrance, it quietly aftertastes, slowly returns to sweetness, and has a mellow feeling. , Spread on the tongue layer by layer.

"Good tea," You Miao said.

"Yes," Qiao said, "I told you Erji a few times. I don't make this tea at home. I have to grow green tea."

You Youmiao laughed and said, "Aren't people here like to drink green tea? If you want to make oolong tea business, you have to take the two roads of Huguang, Beijing, and Shuzhong to sell them."

Qiao Qiao said, "I heard that those officials and grandfathers in the north like to eat oolong tea."

Miao Youmiao said, "Do you have tea plants there?"

Qiao Qiao said: "A lot of tea seedlings, there is no place to plant."

Wu Youmiao said, "Do n’t go home and breathe with that woman, harvest the tea seedlings, bring me here to plant, listen to me, Xiaoyu, I want to die for you!"

Qiao Xuan sighed, You Miao was thinking of going to Shaoyuan Tea House for a few days to get a bunch of tea and plant some tea seedlings. The green tea market in Jiangnan area must not be able to grab his father. Send to Beijing for sale.

"I'll go home and see again," Qiao said.

You Miao knows that this thing ca n’t run away from Qiao Ye, even if others do n’t come, the tea seedlings must be delivered. Do n’t worry about it at all. After drinking three rounds of tea, he took Qiao Ye out to see the villa. You Miao said proudly one by one about Miao in Beijing. Said that the three princes Zhao Chao liked him and wanted to recruit him as a companion, and also talked about the family affairs.

Qiao Yan is a famous man in Yangzhou. At the stop with You Miao, each of them had their own unique taste. On the day, the two rode a horse and watched the entire villa slowly. Yu Miao entertained Qiao at night. After eating a meal at the farmhouse, Li Zhiyi cooks and cooks a steamed fish. The daughters of Li Zhuang and Zhu Tang come up to the village to help the workers and simmer a pot of chicken soup. Stir-fried pan bacon, sliced ​​blood sausage, stir-fried rice cakes, and sometimes vegetables and steamed egg custard.

You Youmiao couldn't help pouring wine to Qiao Yan, saying, "I just lived here. It's not unusual to eat or drink. You can eat whatever you want."

"Maybe." Qiao Yan flushed with wine and said, "In our tea house, this is how to eat."

Xi Youmiao was surprised when she heard this, and then felt very pathetic. Her mother and granddaughter's performance was not small at one time. How did she get into this situation?

"Isn't silver money enough to pass?" You Miao finally felt a little bad.

"You ca n’t stop turning?" Qiao said, "The tail is too big. It's about this kind of family business. Doing it 20 years ago, okay. Now, it's impossible to take the same goods route now. The original three sisters At that time, there were eight or nine hundred and twenty-nine silver in a year. In the past few years, you two demolition of the east wall to make up the west wall, you do n’t know how much money you have piled up. They still have a bunch of relatives from their parents' family. They come to the bank from time to time to make money. Hey, it's difficult. "

Youyou Miao knows that Qiao Yu previously managed the account and managed all the money in and out of Shaoyuan Chazhuang. He lost money and could not conceal his eyes. In that case, most of the business was going to be impossible.

"Come here." You Miaola Li Zhihuan.

烽 Li Zhiquan waved his hands and said, "I eat outside."

"Let you sit, you can sit." Qiao said with a smile: "My aunt also said, you are his best brother ..."

Wu Youmiao's face turned red immediately, and she said quickly: "Okay."

Qiao Qiao sighed again and said, "You heard about it, Xiao Xun wanted to come to him to find him ..."

You Youmiao smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's a fate."

Qiao Min took the bowl and bumped with You Miao, and said, "In these years, the Shaoyuan Tea House has been supported by your father. The mouth of a man is short and his hand is soft. My **** can't help but please You Dechuan ... Xiaoying listened to it, too. "
