The life of a villain in a courtyard

"Good boy, stop playing and wash your hands and eat."

Holding her daughter in her arms, the family of three started to have breakfast. Chunxuan waved her chubby hands and babbled something. She was already at the age to learn to speak.

Su Yun fed her first and then carried her into the house. He then ruthlessly stuffed several dogs in with her and let them play with her.

During the meal, Chen Li talked to Su Yun about the recent situation of the tavern.

The pub's business has declined significantly and many old customers no longer come.

Speaking of wine, Su Yun thought of the old man Sun who knew how to make wine that he met this morning. If he could get the tools for making wine and provide the materials himself, could he make wine?

Thinking of this, Su Yun finished the meat bun in his hand in a few bites, and then went to the street office.

"Director Wang."

"How did you come?"

"I came to see how your arrangements were going."

"Don't mention it."

Director Wang was having a headache because there were no suitable positions anywhere. Either they were not recruiting people or the qualifications were not met.

What they need are young and strong or skilled people. There is really no suitable position for an old man in his fifties who only knows how to make wine and is about to retire.

"Uncle Sun."

The old man was taking a nap in a chair.

"It's you, young man. What do you want to see me for?"

"I heard that you used to be a brewer?"

When talking about winemaking, Grandpa Sun's depressed expression suddenly became much more energetic.

"Yes, this is our family's ancestral craft. My grandfather has been making wine for more than 80 years."

"So, do you still have your craft?"

"What are you talking about! How could I forget something I have done for over forty years, old man?"

Uncle Sun glared at me with an expression that said, "You look down on me."

Su Yun nodded and left the street office.

His actions confused Director Wang and several staff members on duty. He came in a hurry, stayed for a few minutes, and left in a hurry again. What was he doing here? It was so strange that people couldn't figure it out.

The tavern was empty except for a few waiters. There was a small blackboard outside the tavern, which said that only meals were served in the tavern, and no alcohol was allowed.

What's a tavern without wine?

"Hey! There's no one here."

He Yumei sighed.

"If you ask me, you are just a cheap bastard. You feel tired when there are too many people around, and you feel lonely when there are too few people around!"

"I……"

Su Yun pushed the door open and interrupted the two of them.

"Su Yun? Lili didn't come today either. I must have remembered it wrong." He Yumei joked.

"I'm here to see Boss Xu. Is she here?"

He Yumei pointed behind her and saw Xu Huizhen catching up on her sleep after not sleeping the whole night.

"Huizhen is resting. Tell me if you have anything to say."

Cai Quanwu stood at the door diligently and did not let Su Yun in.

"I can't tell you about this. You can't make the decision in the tavern."

It’s not that Su Yun discriminates against him. Cai Quanwu mainly plays the role of a good wife in the tavern. She doesn’t care about anything, but she can settle things when something goes wrong.

"Then wait a minute, I'll go find him."

Su Yun found a place to sit down. The tavern was empty. Occasionally, people passing by would see the notice at the door and leave.

Soon Xu Huizhen came from the backyard yawning.

"Why do you seem to be half asleep?"

"I slept too late last night. What do you want from me?"

"I heard you're out of wine in the tavern?"

"Yes."

Xu Huizhen pulled out a chair and sat down.

"How come you have a solution?"

"I know a winemaker. If you can get the tools to make wine, he can provide you with wine. As for the raw materials for making wine, leave them to me. What do you think?"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. The winemaker is a refugee and has no place to live. You have to give him a salary and a place to live, and everything else will be easy."

"It's not easy, just wait."

Xu Huizhen returned to the backyard, took a key and opened the cellar. She remembered that there was a set of tools inside, which were left by her father-in-law and had been placed there for more than ten years.

Her father-in-law had tried to make wine before, but the wine he made was so bad that the guests didn't like it, so the whole thing was thrown into the cellar and gathered dust.

"You still have this thing at home!"

Su Yun walked over and started to look around. This was the first time he saw the wine-making tools in person.

"I got the things, where's the master?"

"Wait."

Su Yun went out, and half an hour later, he came to the tavern on a bicycle with a shabby old man in his fifties.

"This is the winemaker I told you about. His surname is Sun. He has been in this business for more than 40 years."

"Hello, Master Sun. I heard you can make wine?"

"Girl, my family has been making wine since my grandfather's generation! You can doubt my character, but you can't doubt my craftsmanship."

"Uncle, I don't mean that. I mean, have you eaten?"

"I have eaten. The leaders of the subdistrict office invited me to dinner. They are all good people!"

The old man was still very simple and honest. Xu Huizhen took Grandpa Sun to the backyard and showed him the tools.

"Girl, are you preparing these things to make wine?"

"Sir, to be honest, I would like to ask you to brew some wine for our tavern."

"Yes, uncle, you don't have anywhere to go. You can brew wine here, and Boss Xu will pay you and find you a place to live. What do you think?"
