"New variety? Then I have to take a look." Yang Wei said as he opened a jar of wine at hand, and a sweet smell wafted out along with the aroma of the wine.

"This wine smells so good."

"Yes, and it tastes sweet."

"Huh?! This is..." Yang Wei took a closer look and said, "Brother Li, this wine looks like the amber wine from Qingfeng Restaurant. The wine is clear and amber in color. It is definitely amber wine."

"Amber wine?" Li Shao thought that Boss Liu was quite good at naming things. It sounded very classy. He said, "Yes, it is amber wine."

"Wow, this is amber wine. I've only heard of it but never tasted it."

"I drank it last time. The taste and aftertaste were amazing. The most popular amber wine in town right now is Qingfeng Restaurant's amber wine."

"I heard they were sold out very quickly. If you want to buy, you have to pay a deposit in advance. Where did Brother Li get so many from?"

Several constables were talking at once.

Yang Wei hurriedly said, "Brother Li, this is too expensive. I can't accept it. This amber wine costs 350 coins per pound. This much wine will cost at least a hundred taels of silver."

"Yes, Brother Li, this truckload of wine is very valuable. We can't accept such a valuable item from you."

Although these men were extremely greedy for the wine, they could not bear to accept such expensive wine, so they all urged Li Shao to take it back.

Li Shao thought: Boss Liu is really shady, selling at double the price. But this is his ability, not his business.

He laughed and said, "I've told you all that my family makes wine. This amber wine comes from my winery and is sold at Qingfeng Tavern. I didn't buy it with money, so don't bother talking about how expensive it is. We're all brothers, and if you refuse to drink some wine when I give it to you, you're just being fussy."

Yang Wei knew that the previous rice wine was brewed by Li Shao's family, but he did not expect that the amber wine that has been popular in the town recently was also made by him. He sighed at the ability of his eldest brother.

"I really admire Brother Li's craftsmanship. We would like to thank Brother Li for brewing such wine." Li Shao was so generous and frank that Yang Wei did not refuse.

"Thank you, Brother Li. You are so generous."

"Brother Li, you must stay with sister-in-law today, and we will have a good meal."

"yes..."

Listening to their endless chatter, Li Shao quickly interrupted, "Okay, okay, that's right, it's really ugly for grown men to push and shove. As for dinner, I'll definitely do it next time. Today I have to go out with Brother Ye. Hurry up and move the wine in. We're leaving now."

Everyone tried to persuade him, but Yang Wei spoke up, "Hahaha, Brother Li and his wife are so in love, let's not disturb their sweetness. But Brother Li, next time you must bring your wife to have a good meal, you can order whatever you want from Zhenxiulou."

Li Shao also smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely not be polite to you then."

The men were all strong and they finished moving the wine from the car in two trips. After Li Shao and Zhao Ye said goodbye to them, they first went to the clinic. After feeling Zhao Ye's pulse, the doctor said that he didn't need to take any more medicine. Now Zhao Ye's body has been restored to the same level as a normal person. If he still feels that his body is not strong enough, he can just eat more nourishing food on a daily basis.

Li Shao finally felt relieved and took Zhao Ye to leisurely eat, stroll and shop in the town. He was so happy.

Zhao family.

"Mom! I'm back." Zhao Qi pushed open the door and shouted.

"Oh, what a rare guest! What's wrong with Brother Qi? Did he remember to go back to his mother's house?" He called out as soon as he entered the door. He was waiting for the whole family to go out and greet him. He hadn't been back to his mother's house for 800 years, so this time he came, it must be bad news. Sun Jiao rolled her eyes and complained in her heart.

Zhao Qi, contrary to her usual behavior, did not make a noise. She lowered her eyelids and glanced at Sun Jiao, looking as if she didn't want to see her. She said, "Sister-in-law, are my parents home?"

Seeing her condescending attitude, Sun Jiao got angry. Just as she was about to say something, Zhao's mother came out of the house and said, "Brother Qi, why are you back? Come in quickly."

"Well, mother, I came back this time with good news to tell you and my father." Zhao Qi still spoke calmly and walked into the house with Zhao's mother.

Sun Jiao followed behind and complained quietly: "Good news? What good news can you have?"

"Boss, Brother Qi is back."

"Dad, I'm back."

Father Zhao was sitting in the house smoking. When he saw Zhao Qi coming back, he frowned and said, "Brother Qi, why did you come back to your mother's house when you're not at home taking care of the household chores?"

Zhao Qi held her head high, stretched her neck, and said proudly, "Dad, Mom, my husband passed the exam and became a juren."

"What? He passed the imperial examination? Really passed?" Father Zhao didn't even have time to smoke.

Mother Zhao slapped her thigh with joy and said, "I said our brother Qi was destined to be rich and noble. Now he is going to become the wife of an official."

Sun Jiao rolled her eyes in her heart. How could Zhao Qi be so lucky? She stole her brother's fiancé, and this man even passed the imperial examination. She was really lucky.

She still said flatteringly: "Oh, our Qi Ge is so lucky to marry such a capable man. When her brother-in-law becomes an official, she will be able to wear gold and silver and have people to serve her every day. When you become rich, you must think about your family."

"What kind of official position can you hold? How much money can you get as an official in a month?"

"Where do you work as an official, in the town or in the county?"

Seeing their flattering faces, Zhao Qi's vanity was greatly satisfied. He raised his head and said, "Being an official is not what you think it is. You don't understand. My husband said that after passing the imperial examination, the court will give you a salary of 20 taels of silver a month, and your family will be exempted from corvée and taxes, and you don't have to kneel when you see an official."

"My God, I don't do anything in a month and I get paid twenty taels for nothing. My family can't even earn twenty taels of silver in a year."

"Brother, your son-in-law is so promising. Brother Qi, you are so lucky."

"By the way, where else can one be an official except for money?"

Zhao Qi looked at their ignorant looks, sneered and said, "Although you can become an official after passing the imperial examination, there are still many people waiting in line ahead of you. Even if you get the position, it will be a small official. My husband said that after passing the imperial examination next year, there will be a palace examination, and you can see the emperor. Then you can stay in the capital and become an official."

"What a talent! He is such a great guy that he can even meet the emperor and become an official in the capital."

"Brother Qi, why didn't your son-in-law come back with you? This is such a happy event, I have to cook a table of delicious food to celebrate for him."

"Yes, why didn't your husband come back?"

Zhao Qi said, "Father and mother, my husband doesn't have time. He is busy discussing business matters with his classmates and officials in the town and county every day. He also has to prepare for next year's imperial examination."

Mother Zhao said hurriedly, "It's normal to be busy, but you can't skip this meal. When you go back, tell your brother-in-law that his father-in-law and mother-in-law have prepared a table of delicious food for him, and tell him to come whenever he is free."

Sun Jiao wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this. He hasn't even become an official yet, but he's showing off by going to his mother's house. He's so condescending, as if to say that you guys are not on the same level as me.
