Zhao Ye took the silver and the contract and read them over and over again. "Husband, with just this piece of paper, our family will have at least 60 taels of silver every month in the future? I am not dreaming, am I?"

Li Shao laughed, "Little fool, of course you are not dreaming."

"My husband, you can read and write, how come you can do everything?"

Looking at Ye Ge'er's starry eyes, Li Shao smiled and said, "Wait a few days and go to town to buy some books. I will also teach you how to read."

Zhao Ye opened his eyes wide in disbelief, put down the silver, grabbed Li Shao's sleeve and said, "Really? Husband, you want to teach me to read? Can I read too?" He had watched Zhao Xiuwen read and write since he was a child, and he never thought that he would have this day.

Looking at his big round eyes, Li Shao's heart melted. He pulled him into his arms and said, "Really? In the future, we will have to keep accounts for our business. How can a small boss like you who can't read do this?"

"Wow...husband, you are so good to me."

This crying scared Li Shao. He was just trying to make the girl happy, but why did she start crying?

She hurriedly wiped Ye Ge'er's tears, "What's wrong? Why are you crying when we were just talking? I feel so sad about you crying. What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Tell me quickly."

Seeing his anxious look, Zhao Ye burst into laughter again, sniffed and said, "Hehe, no, I'm just happy. You're so good to me, I'm crying with joy."

Li Shao, who was frightened by him, picked up Zhao Ye and said, "You are so good. You scared me and I thought you were in pain. In this case, I will be nicer to you, hehe."

After saying that, he rushed into the bedroom holding Zhao Ye.

......

After the passion, Zhao Ye lay in Li Shao's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, feeling extremely happy.

"By the way, husband, at the beginning of today, you didn't agree with whatever Boss Liu said. Aren't you afraid that he won't buy our wine?"

Touching the smooth back of the person in his arms, Li Shao said absentmindedly: "I have inquired before. There are two big wine shops in the town. One is Zuixian Pavilion, which has been in business for many years. The other is Qingfeng Restaurant owned by Boss Liu. Boss Liu is the youngest son of Mr. Liu in the town. Most of the Liu family's property was inherited by his eldest brother."

"I guess he wanted to make some achievements to show his father and elder brother, so he opened this Qingfeng Restaurant, but there is no signature wine at all. It can't compare to Zuixian Pavilion which has been in business for many years. Everyone in the town knows these things."

"I wouldn't say our rice wine is the only one in the world, but it is of very high quality. If Boss Liu wants to make his wine shop famous, he will definitely buy our wine."

"Then why did you agree to sell it to him only? Didn't you not want to agree to it at the beginning?"

"Originally yes, but if I think about it, if I sell it exclusively to him, the price he gives me is high enough, and I don't have to worry about anything other than making wine. This way I will have time to be with you every day." As he said this, he kissed the top of the head of the person in his arms.

Although they have been married for such a long time, Zhao Ye still can't get used to Li Shao's love words at any time and place, "Say such embarrassing words again..."

"Hahaha, you're shy again. You're still shy when we're saying sweet words to each other in the bed. You're so cute, my brother Ye." As he spoke, his hands started to get naughty.

Zhao Ye quickly held down his mischievous hand and said, "I can't do it anymore. I don't want it anymore."

In order to divert his attention, Zhao Ye thought, "Oh, my husband, didn't you say there's a big wine shop called Zuixian Pavilion in town? Our wine is so good, why doesn't Zuixian Pavilion accept it?"

"Oh, Zuixian Pavilion, the shopkeeper's nose is taller than his eyes. He refused to buy the food without even tasting it. I was too lazy to argue with him."

"Okay, Brother Ye, let's not talk about others, let's..."

After another round of lovemaking, Zhao Ye no longer had the strength to get up. After Li Shao received two soft punches from her husband, he got up and cooked dinner.

Li Shao used the tofu that Zhao Ye bought to make pork, cabbage and tofu, stir-fried two seasonal vegetables, and stewed a pot of red dates and wolfberry chicken soup.

Seeing that Zhao Ye only ate one bowl of rice and drank two bowls of chicken soup, Li Shao couldn't help but frown, "Are you full? Why do you only eat so little? Your appetite hasn't increased."

Zhao Ye was speechless. How could he eat less? Including the girls and boys in the village, there should be no one who eats more than him. While taking a shower, I felt that I had gained several times more weight. My new clothes were a little tight.

"I'm really full. You told me to eat more every day. Now I'm too fat to wear my new clothes."

Li Shao stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek, which seemed to be much better than before. "How can you be called fat? You still need to gain some meat to be healthy, and feel nice to the touch, and be cute, hehehe. When your clothes become thinner, buy new ones. Clothes should be bought frequently anyway."

As he spoke, he rubbed Zhao Ye's body with his hands to prove that he was right and that it really felt good.

Zhao Ye rolled his eyes at him, quickly reached out and pressed down the big hand that was making trouble on him, and said, "Husband, stop making trouble. We have to get up early tomorrow to make wine. Boss Liu has ordered so much wine and paid a deposit. We have to work hard, otherwise it will be troublesome if we can't deliver the goods."

"Brother Ye, I plan to hire a man in the village to help with the brewing first, and then I will hire more when Boss Liu needs more wine."

"What? Hire someone?" When Zhao Ye heard that he wanted to hire someone, he no longer cared about Li Shao's rebellious actions.

"If the winemaking work is done by the two of us, then we will have to work non-stop every day. That would be so tiring. We earn money to enjoy life. Why should we make ourselves so tired when we can just hire someone to do it?"

"But, but, if we hire someone, the winemaking recipe will be leaked."

"Hahaha, they can't be leaked. We won't let them do the important steps, and we'll sign a contract. The wages are thirty coins a day. If they leak all the production methods, they'll have to compensate us fifty taels of silver, and we'll also report them to the government."

"And have you forgotten? The doctor said that you are not in good health. I can't bear to let you do these jobs. From now on, don't do these jobs. Just take care of our family's accounts."

"Brother Ye, what do you think?"

Zhao Ye thought about it and felt that what Li Shao said made sense, so he nodded and said, "Husband, I'll listen to you." Zhao Ye never thought that one day his family would be able to hire people. Only the masters in the town would hire people to do work, and he felt dizzy.

Seeing his confused look, Li Shao said with a smile: "Come back to your senses, hahahaha, Ye brother, you are more familiar with the villagers. We need to find someone who is honest, hardworking and has good character. Who do you think is suitable?"

Zhao Ye thought about it, and said a little embarrassedly: "Husband, do you think Bao Ge'er's husband is okay? His husband is a very honest person. There is no farm work to do at this time of year, and everyone is resting at home."

"But Bao Ge'er's husband has been working part-time in the town every day to earn more money. He leaves before dawn and comes back very late at night. Bao Ge'er is worried that he will tire himself out, and part-time jobs are not available every day. Can he..."

After saying that, he looked at Li Shao cautiously.
