Li Dong brought a gray-haired old man to Lijiazhuang, and said to Li Cheng behind his back: "This old man Meng also ran a tavern in his family, but because his opponent couldn't compete, he hooked up with the man named Liu. And that man The man surnamed Liu happened to have a crush on his daughter-in-law who just came into the house..."

The tavern that competed with the Meng family found someone and falsely accused the Meng family of drinking alcohol to death. Meng's son was immediately arrested by the Yamen's officers.When Old Man Meng went to visit, he had already lost his human form. Liu came to the door again to force the Meng family's daughter-in-law. The Meng family's daughter-in-law couldn't bear the humiliation and hanged herself. A few days later, news of the death of Old Man Meng's son also came from the Yamen. The Meng family's wife couldn't bear the continuous news. The blow also followed, and Old Man Meng's head turned white overnight.

Because he heard that the man named Liu was imprisoned, Mr. Meng ran to the yamen gate and cursed the man named Liu.The people left there by Wu Xiong found out and asked others, and then they found out about the Meng family.

Old Man Meng survived because he wanted to avenge his family. After hearing how his enemy was imprisoned, he willingly followed Li Dong to Lijiazhuang.

"I also tried the Meng family wine, and it was good." Li Dong didn't just arrest him for business, he even found out clearly what the nature of Old Meng was.

Li Cheng was silent for a long time after listening to Li Dong's words, and then said: "You arrange for Mr. Meng to live here, and then take him to the winery to have a look. If it is suitable, he will be in charge of the winery for now. Now that we have entered We, Zhuangzi, are our people. Leave his other enemy to Wu Xiong and the others."

Li Dong nodded and said: "Wu Xiong must have a way. He is not a very capable person, just a person who sells bad wine mixed with water."

"If you want money, take it from the tavern's account first. If you don't have enough money, come and ask me." Asking Wu Xiong to do things for him won't put him in trouble, let alone pay for it himself.

Li Dong quickly said: "I understand, miss. After making arrangements for Mr. Meng, I will go to town and tell Wu Xiong. He will definitely be happy to help the young master."

The guy was worried about losing face this time, so he tried his best to show off his abilities in front of the young lady. Besides, the county magistrate Mr. Zhao did not dare to make any sound at all, and everyone in the gang, including Wu Xiong, also knew about this young lady. There is also a giant Buddha behind the tavern.

Within a few days, news came from Dechang County. A wealthy family in the county bought wine from a tavern. It turned out that the wine in that tavern was not only adulterated with water, but also had a strange smell, which ruined the entire family's life. banquet.

The family took their servants to the tavern and smashed it inside and out, but there was no one around to help.

In the middle of the night, a fire broke out in the tavern for some reason. It was difficult to put out the fire because there was alcohol in the house. After finally putting out the fire, the Yamen clerk went to examine the bodies of the victims and found that according to the household registration, the family was missing two people.

It turned out that the owner of the tavern was still alive, and he sued the wealthy family who had bought the wine that day, accusing them of murder and arson.However, after some investigation, it was found that this was not the case. The fire was not caused intentionally by outsiders, but was caused by a family member who accidentally knocked over the oil lamp. The owner of the house escaped because he was not at home that day and went out to fool around.

Drug ingredients were found in the corpses, and someone went to the Yamen to report it. It was discovered that the family's daughter-in-law had run away with someone, and the police immediately went to arrest her, and only then did the truth of the murder come to light.

It turned out that the daughter-in-law of this family had an affair with an outsider, so she stole the family's money and wanted to elope with them.After knocking out everyone in her family, she hurriedly left. Unexpectedly, she accidentally knocked over the oil lamp. She left in a hurry and had no idea, thus causing a huge fire in the sky.

The daughter-in-law was imprisoned, and the head of the family was devastated overnight, but he did not get much sympathy. The wealthy family he falsely accused secretly retaliated, and the Yamen returned to him the property stolen by his daughter-in-law. , it was robbed in the blink of an eye, and within a few days people were living in such desolation that they were living among beggars.

Li Dong was very sad when he came back and told about this incident. When Wu Xiong and the others went there, they only made trouble in the wine. The purpose was to make the family enmity with the prominent people in the county. Given the temperament of the wealthy family, they would definitely They would not let that family go, but the subsequent divine developments, including the fire, were beyond their expectations.

It truly complies with the saying that God will take care of people's evil deeds.

On the day when the news about Li Dong was brought back, the gray-haired old man Meng locked himself in the room and cried bitterly.

Listening to the sad voice, Grandma Jiang frowned and said to Li Cheng, "Where did you get these weird people?"

"Again?" Li Cheng smiled and said, "Which one else? Sister Ning? Or you, Aunt Jiang?"

Aunt Jiang slapped Li Cheng angrily. "No matter how big or small." He glanced at Li Cheng and walked away angrily.

Li Cheng smiled and understood what Aunt Jiang wanted to express. Did Aunt Jiang really think that she was a kind person who only acted chivalrously when things went wrong?

She has no interest in being this kind of person. Whether it is Huang Ning or Old Man Meng, they just meet her needs.

It would be effortless for me to take action for them, but it would be well worth it if I could get their loyalty in return.What's more, with Yi Zhi watching at all times, Li Cheng is not worried that there will be things in this village that she doesn't know about.

The next day, Old Man Meng voluntarily signed the deed of sale and became Li Cheng's slave. He kowtowed heavily in front of Li Cheng and expressed his sincere gratitude to Li Cheng for avenging his family's blood.

What is the difference between professionals and amateurs? After visiting the winery, Mr. Meng pointed out many areas for improvement.He had heard someone mention before that there was a tavern at the dock in Qingyi Town, and the wine they sold was different from others. If there hadn't been something wrong at home, Old Man Meng would definitely have gone to check it out.But he didn't expect that after going full circle, he actually joined the master's family. After entering the winery, he figured out how to make the wine.

He told Li Cheng how to improve it, and Li Cheng didn't respond. He said, "You have also seen that you can't make good wine in the tavern, so you came to the tavern. Zhuangzi has already reserved some grain. Meng Old man, please feel free to work. In addition, Mr. Meng will try making wine with these when he has time. I hope to see the finished product soon." Li Cheng pointed to the sweet potatoes in several baskets on the ground and told Mr. Meng to go ahead and do the experiment. .

The sweet potatoes in the field are far from harvest time. They were taken out of space and spawned by supernatural powers. We cannot wait until the sweet potatoes are harvested in August to test them. They must be carried out early.

Seeing the doubt in Old Man Meng's eyes, Li Cheng said: "This kind of crop has a very high yield per acre, and it doesn't pick up the land. It is more cost-effective to use for wine than other grains. If these amounts are not enough, Old Man Meng just come and ask me for it." .”

"Since the young lady trusts Lao Meng, then Old Meng will try his best and will not let the young lady down." His family is gone, and he has nothing to count on.Now that he could see the lady's method of purifying wine through distillation, he had no regrets. The only thing left was to use his own craftsmanship to brew better wine for the lady to repay her.
