Rebirth of Jiuyouyan

"Father, you are back."

When Xia Yue stepped into the east courtyard, the door of the east chamber opened, and someone walked out of the room to greet him. His demeanor was quite polite, and the small water-blue robe set off his sensual face, which was as white as jade. .

He walked up to his son with a smile, touched his son's head, and asked, "Where's Youyan?"

"You Yan is copying characters."

As soon as the fine-tuned voice fell, there was a sound of landing in the room, followed by the sound of footsteps.

Xia Yue saw his youngest son running in front of him, said hello to his father obediently, then raised his hands, and offered to hand over the writing book.

At the beginning of spring this year, Xia Yue specially hired an Enlightenment Mr. Although it was a bit early, Youmei was not yet old enough to go to school, just watching Youmei often went to the study room, holding a book and reading it all afternoon, Xia Yue I thought it would be good for him to learn something in advance.Originally Xia Yue and Shi Yan taught how to read and write, but now Shi Yan is inconvenient and often goes out by himself, so he simply hired a special person to take care of it.Because the child is still young, he still has the will to play, so he only arranges a class in the morning.

Originally, it was only arranged for the eldest son to attend classes, and You Xing himself was still young. Xia Yue felt that there was no need for You Yan, who was one year younger than the eldest son, to be locked up for class too early.

But maybe it was out of curiosity, maybe it was because he didn't want to be left behind, Youxiu followed her husband to the class for two days, and Youyan followed her into the study to listen.Seeing that the young master was also listening seriously, the master told Xia Yue, and also taught Youyan how to write.So when Youxiu listened intently to the teacher's lecture, Youyan was on the sidelines learning to write with a pen in his tracing book.

Xia Yue smiled and flipped through his youngest son's copybook. Naturally, the child's handwriting was not very beautiful, but it could be seen that Youyan wrote very seriously, and all strokes were carefully traced stroke by stroke, without traces of impatience and casualness. Didn't see the typo.

He raised his head to praise, but saw that his youngest son's face was a little gloomy.

"What's the matter?" Xia Yue knelt down, put his hands on his young son's head, looked at him and asked, "Youyan's handwriting is very good, there is no mistake, why are you unhappy?"

You Yan pursed his lips and said, "I can't write my brother's name well."

"Huh?" Xia Yue didn't know why, so he turned to look at his eldest son.

Youxiu seemed a little helpless, and took his younger brother's hand before telling his father the reason.It turned out that You Jing had learned calligraphy from Shi Yan for a year, and now she is learning from her husband, so her calligraphy is much better.In Xia Yue's eyes, Luo Yue's common handwriting is quite close to lower case, very neat and beautiful.Although the eldest son can't write the graceful and beautiful handwriting like Shiyan, but for a five-year-old child, the handwriting is quite clean, and even his own name is written with complicated strokes, which is quite pleasing to the eye.

You Yan probably admires this very much, but he has just started learning characters, and it is rare to be able to write his own name beautifully.In the end, because he really felt the gap between him and his elder brother, Yun Youyan Xiaolang became sulky at himself, thinking that he was too stupid, that his elder brother did a good job, but he couldn't do it well.

After hearing this, Xia Yue couldn't help but hugged his youngest son and stood up.Being carried to a high place by his father all of a sudden, Youyan was a little stunned, forgetting that he was still unhappy before, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

"Silly boy, you have only been writing for a few days, and you want to catch up with your brother?" Xia Yue returned the tracing book to him, pinched his round face, "The tracing that your brother used Ben, there are more picture books than you have ever seen. You can write your brother’s name well after you have written so many characters, so you can’t be in a hurry now, do you understand?”

Youyan tilted his head and thought for a while, but he was not smarter than his brother, it seemed that he had to work harder to catch up.

Finally figured it out, Youyan nodded to his father and said, "I know."

Xia Yue looked at his young son's naive appearance, couldn't help pinching his cheek again, and then put the child down.

"Where's your father?"

Someone pointed at Xia Yue's bedroom and said, "Daddy is sleeping, so we will go back to our own room."

Nodding his head to show that he knew, Xia Yue lowered his head and saw sweat protruding from the forehead of a handsome man, so he reached out to wipe it off for him, then flipped through his little outer robe, and said, "It's hot, so I took off my outer robe at home. Let’s make two more thinner clothes for you some other day.”

"Thank you, father." Youxiu immediately took off his robe as if he had received a pardon, and let out a small sigh of relief.

Xia Yue patted the shoulders of the two sons with satisfaction: "Go and play after you finish your homework. Ask someone to accompany you, and you can go to the garden."

"Really? Thank you, father!" The two brothers were delighted when they heard that they were able to go to the garden, even the relatively calm Youxiu was no exception.There are all kinds of flowers and plants in the garden, there are grasshoppers among the grass, and there is a big pond, half of the pond is covered with lotus leaves and lotus flowers, and there are still lotus seeds to eat, but the pond is dangerously deep, Xia Yue doesn’t usually let them pass play.The two children are also obedient and will not sneak past without telling the adults.

Today, it was rare for his father to say that he could go to the garden, and they couldn't stay any longer. Youyan was still thinking about writing, so he turned around and put the tracing book away, and ran out with his brother, and caught Xia Yue's servant in the side room , said to Xia Yue, and ran to the garden.

Xia Yue smiled and looked at the jubilant backs of his two sons. Children should play to their heart's content. It would be bad if they were buried in books too early.Even if they want to learn, they should be moderate and leave time to play. Such children are cute.

After he could no longer hear the voices of his sons, he gently pushed open the door of the bedroom.

Shiyan was leaning on the small couch by the window, half covered with a thin quilt made of silk, it seemed that she was just planning to take a nap, but fell asleep in the end.

Xia Yue walked over and saw that there was some thin sweat on Fu Lang's forehead, thinking that there was no one else in the courtyard, he closed the window.

Although it was a hot summer afternoon, there was still a breeze outside, and the room became cooler immediately.

When Shi Yan wiped away the perspiration on Shi Yan's forehead with a towel, Shi Yan moved, her eyelashes trembled, and she opened her eyes.

"Sister-in-law? You're back."

Seeing that Shiyan woke up, Xia Yue leaned down and kissed him tenderly.

After kissing her husband back, Shi Yan looked out the window and asked, "Where are Youshao and Youyan?"

"I sent them out to play in the garden. How do you feel? Still tired?"

Shi Yan shook her head: "It's just hot, I don't want to move."

Xia Yue took a feather fan from the table and fanned him: "You are like this now, I dare not put ice in the room for you, so just bear with it, huh?"

"It's fine, don't worry about it, Mr. Shi." Shi Yan said with a smile, "Anyway, I don't go out, and I'm basically in the room, and there's this thin quilt here, and the silk ice is cold, and it's very comfortable to touch .Besides, I just need to endure it for a few more days.”

Seeing Shi Yan's movements of stroking his abdomen, Xia Yue grabbed his shoulders, put his chin on Fu Lang's shoulders, looked at his stomach and said, "I really want this kid to come out soon."

Shi Yan couldn't help laughing when she heard her husband say such childish words.

He is 26 this year, and he was worried that he would not be able to conceive.Although the husband and father-in-law said that there are already two young officials in the family, there is no need to force yourself too much, just listen to God's will.But Shiyan still feels that if possible, she still wants to have another one.Her husband told him to relax, be patient, and wait slowly. Finally, at the age of 25, he was happy again.

Thinking that this is her last child, Shi Yan is more attentive than ever, this time the child in her womb is not as energetic as before, and she seldom tosses him, so Shi Yan doesn't suffer much.At first, he was afraid that something was wrong with the child, but Dr. Shen felt his pulse but said that both father and son were healthy, so he was relieved.

Counting the days, the child should be born within a few days.It's just that Shiyan was pregnant for the first time in summer, the weather was hot, and her body temperature was high, so it was really hard to bear.Morning and evening were better, but at noon, he could only stay in the house sleepily, not wanting to do anything.

Xia Yue also felt sorry for Fu Lang, and tried his best to stay with him at home at noon, but things have become busy recently, and he would occasionally go to the Bai family's field to help out, and he usually didn't come back until the afternoon.

In the past few years, Xia Yue didn't know how to concentrate on brewing wine, so he devoted some energy to the mountain that the Yun family bought.At the beginning, he felt that it would be too wasteful to just leave a good mountain alone and just go to the hot spring once or twice a year, so he thought about it, hired someone to clean it up, and planted plum trees.Most of the green plums are planted, and some red plums are also planted. Special personnel are hired to take care of them.

Xia Yue would choose to plant plum trees, still for wine making.In early summer, the ripe green plums are picked and sent to Yincheng. The big, green, hard and unharmed plums are selected to make plum wine.Naturally, the wine used to brew plum wine cannot be the wine brewed by the wine store. The wine stored in the Yun family wine store is all high-quality, so it would be too wasteful to use it to soak plums to make plum wine.In the past, the wine mash left after the new Tibetan wine was put into the tank was sold to others to make fermented wine. Xia Yue kept a part of it. In particular, someone made a special steamer and glassware, heated the wine mash with high temperature, and collected and volatilized it. The wine vapor, after cooling, a colorless wine liquid can be obtained.

This is the so-called distilled wine. Xia Yue only knew the principle, and tried several times before he succeeded.After tasting, it was confirmed that the taste of the shochu was not much different from that of the previous life, but the alcohol content was too high and the taste was pungent, which would not be accepted by the people of Luoyue, and Master Du also asserted so.Xia Yue didn't want to promote distilled wine, he tried this only to brew plum wine.

He used Luoying, a common wine commonly found in Luoyue, and his own distilled liquor to brew plum wine respectively. Smaller, with a more prominent fruit aroma, the plum wine brewed from the distilled wine has a stronger taste, a little spicy, but it does not damage the aroma of plums, and the taste is very balanced.

The first batch of plum wine brewed was put away by Xia Yue in the ice cellar of the wine storage, and it was not taken out until the summer of the next year, and put in Xijiuzui.As Xia Yue expected, plum wine is very popular with Qingguan, even Lang Guan, drinking a glass of chilled plum wine in the hot summer is also an extremely pleasant enjoyment.After Wen Yougong came to Yincheng to taste it, he became addicted to it. Not only did he buy a lot privately, he also pestered Xia Yue to sign a contract and dragged him to Beijing to sell it.

Although the temperature in Yuejing is relatively pleasant, even in midsummer it is not too hot, but the special style of plum wine that combines sweet and fruity aroma with slightly spicy wine still makes many people intoxicated by it. The hot sale has formed a small trend.

Two years later, the plum wine stored in the Yun Family Wine Store became famous, and many people also learned to brew their own plum wine privately, but after all, the first taste was the Yun Family's taste, and people believed that it was the authentic taste. The plum wine market is getting better and better.This year, the brewery sold almost only a small portion of the remaining sake mash from the upper tank, and most of it was used to make distilled wine and plum wine.

The plums are picked in early summer, and after being transported to Tibet, cleaned and drained, the brewing will begin. Therefore, although it is not the wine-making season, Xia Yue still has some leisure time.

Shiyan likes plum wine very much, and almost drinks a few glasses every day, Xia Yue doesn't stop him, and is happy to let him drink a glass before going to bed at night.Plum wine is not easy to get drunk, but it still has stamina. After drinking it, you can sleep well until dawn. It not only helps sleep, but also warms the stomach. A small cup can warm up the body.

Although after becoming pregnant, Xia Yue stopped letting him drink, but he could have a lot of fresh plums for his husband to chew on.Shiyan was pregnant with a child this time, and her taste was different from the previous two times, both sour and sweet, so Xia Yue picked plums and asked someone to make ebony plums for him to eat.The weather is too hot these days, and the kitchen specially made ebony soup.

However, Kan Shiyan stretched his hand into the small plate of ebony plums on the table again, Xia Yue couldn't help persuading him: "It's the last one, I can't eat any more today. It's not good to eat too many plums."

Shi Yan was stunned when he heard the words, and looked at the black plum in his hand reluctantly, nodded after a while, and then slowly stuffed it into his mouth.

Xia Yue kissed him on the temples, thinking that her husband is really cute.

At sunset, Youxiu and Youyan were willing to come back from the garden. Seeing that they were covered in sweat, Xia Yue grabbed one with each hand and went into the bathroom to take a bath together.After washing them out, Xia Yue asked them to go to the north courtyard to say hello to their grandfather and grandfather, and if they were kept there, they would have dinner there.The sons were obedient, put on their clothes and combed their hair, and then passed. Xia Yue didn't wait for them, and directly ordered his attendant Bu Cai.The little ones passed by, and they would be released easily. Today's dinner must only be used by him and Fu Lang.

After dinner, Xia Yue remembered that he forgot to tell Fu Lang: "From tomorrow onwards, I will stay at home with you all the time."

"Is the plum wine ready?" Shi Yan was walking slowly in the room to digest, and when her husband said this, she turned to look at him.

"It's all put in the ice cellar today. I also said hello to the field. It won't be over for a while. Husband is about to give birth. How can I run around?"

Shiyan's eyebrows and eyes were all bent, maybe it was because she couldn't be with her when she was born, her husband cared too much, and when You Yankuai was born a year later, he just stayed by her side every step of the way.This year, it's the same again.She has been married for several years, but her husband is as considerate to her as ever. Whenever Shi Yan thinks about it, she will lament her luck.

"In the next few days, my husband can help me look at the account book." Shi Yan took out an account book from the cabinet and handed it to Xia Yue, "I don't want to move these days, and I can't read it anymore. It's a bit of a delay .”

Xia Yue took it over and said with a smile: "Of course it's no problem, how could my husband not agree to Fu Lang's request?"

Xia Yue has not handled Xi Jiuzui's business for a long time, but Shi Yan has always taken care of it very well, and the house is also well-organized.Thinking about it now, Xia Yue realized that all these years he had been focusing on wine making, whether it was Xijiuzui or the internal affairs of the house, he never asked about anything.

Feeling that he really chose a virtuous and capable husband, Xia Yue also felt in his heart that he seemed to be in a debt to this husband.Ever since he planted plum trees in the mountains, he hasn't taken Shiyan to the hot springs in other courtyards. This year, he can't drink alcohol while pregnant, and he didn't even take Shiyan to the tasting party.Xia Yue looked down at the ledger, feeling a little guilty.

When the child is born, before the day of entering Tibet, let's take Shiyan out for a walk in early autumn, Xia Yue thought.

The child in Shiyan's womb fell to the ground at noon three days later.

Wen Guan cleaned up the child, wrapped it in soft satin, put it in a bamboo basket covered with the same soft mattress, and held it out for Young Master Yun, smiling so much that the smile lines at the corners of his eyes deepened: "Congratulations Young Master Yun. The fetus is a young lady, and she is in good spirits. Now it's all right."

Xia Yue has tensed up and stood guard in front of the door since he heard the cry of the child, but now he sees Wen Guan carrying the child out, and quickly puts him in his arms.The newborn child was wrinkled, not very good-looking as expected, and his facial features were wrinkled after crying and tired, but Xia Yue felt that his child was really cute.

You Yan was behind him, happily grabbing his elder brother's sleeve: "It's a young brother, that's great, we have a young brother!"

"Shh, your voice is too loud." Although Youshou stopped his younger brother from dancing, his voice was clearly smiling.

These two children have long been looking forward to having a younger brother Qingguan. Xia Yue listened to the movement behind him, looked at the newborn baby in his arms, and felt his heart was full.

When the room was cleaned up, he couldn't wait to walk into the room. His husband was lying on the bed, his hair was slightly wet, his face was a little weak, but his eyes were bright. When he saw him coming in, there was a warm smile on his face.

"Thank you, Shiyan." For some reason, Xia Yue felt his eyes ache. He placed the baby next to Shiyan's pillow, bent down and kissed her husband's eyebrows.

A fine voice sounded from outside the bed curtain: "Father, is Daddy alright?"

Knowing that his son cared about his father, Xia Yue said softly, "It's okay, but I'm a little weak, and I can't see the wind right now."

Hearing that their father could not see the wind, the two children gave up the idea of ​​going in to see their father, and only said to let their father have a good rest. They waited for their father to wake up before coming to see their father and younger brother. Close the door.

Shi Yan and Xia Yue felt very heartbroken that their son was so well-behaved and sensible.

"Look, my son has given you a good rest. You should go to sleep first. I will send the child to Daddy's place in a while."

Shiyan nodded slightly, and closed her eyes. Perhaps she had exhausted too much energy. After a while, she heard his breathing ease, and fell asleep peacefully.

Xia Yue picked up the bamboo basket again, stood up, looked at the baby in his arms, and then at Fu Lang who was sleeping on the bed. He was fascinated by the two similar sleeping faces, and stood there in a daze. Beside the bed, as if I couldn't get enough of it.

The room was very quiet, and Shi Yan's breathing could be heard. The windows were closed, but the sound of wind blowing trees in the yard outside could be heard.

Xia Yue suddenly felt that there seemed to be the bright sunshine in front of him when he was waiting for the delivery just now.

As if he was in the sunshine that warmed his body and mind, he slowly revealed a smile full of happiness.
