Chen Mo saw that the matter was about the same, so when he left, he turned around and asked, "Uncle Delin, does fourth uncle still make wine now?"
The fourth uncle in Chen Mo's mouth is Delin's younger brother, the fourth oldest, so Chen Mo's generation in the village calls him Uncle Chen. He used to brew grain wine in the village, and when he went to school, he was still brewing and selling it in the village, but this time
I haven’t been back for a few years, and I don’t know if I can still make wine, so I asked this question.
"Your fourth uncle still has some wine, but the quantity is much smaller. In recent years, fewer people drink it, so the time between turning on the stove becomes longer. But if you want to drink it, go to your fourth uncle and ask for it. He
There are still a lot of old wines there." Chen Delin said with a smile.
"We have such a good relationship, I have long missed Fourth Uncle's good wine. I haven't had it for so many years since I was in school, and I miss it a lot. Uncle Delin, I'm going to Fourth Uncle's place first." Chen Mo said with a smile, he
I still remember that after I went to junior high school, I basically bought Fourth Uncle’s wine. Although it was not as beautifully packaged as other wines outside, and it was not as fragrant as some wines, Fourth Uncle brewed it with pure grains. Not only did the wine taste good, but it also tasted good.
It doesn't hit the head, unlike some blended wines, which will give you a terrible headache the next day after drinking too much.
Uncle Delin smiled and said: "Go!" He also waved his hand, indicating that he would leave on his own.
After Chen Mo said goodbye to Uncle Delin, he first went to his parents' place and told them about the land contract, and then he wanted to buy the homesteads of several other families in the old house. At this time, his parents didn't have much
He said that since his son is determined to do something, he should support him.
After lunch, Chen Mo and Chen Jianguo went out together. The father went to the families who lived in those old houses to build relationships and talk, so that his son could feel more relaxed when he bought it. Chen Mo didn't stop him. They were all from the countryside.
Some things can be handled much more smoothly if they are discussed and brought to the table, so if his father Chen Jianguo wanted to go, he just let him go. He went to Fourth Uncle Chen.
"Fourth Uncle, I'm here to see you." As soon as he arrived at Fourth Uncle Chen's courtyard, he called from the door.
Fourth Uncle Chen's courtyard may be said to be small, but it is actually not small at all. He is one of the few people in the village who still lives in the old house. However, the location of Fourth Uncle Chen's old house is not at the same location as the old house of Chen Mo's family, but far away.
On the other side of the village. Because the old house used to be large, the backyard of the fourth uncle's house was used as a wine-making workshop, and the front yard was just a small place.
"Oh! It's Erwazi here! Come in and sit down!" Fourth Uncle Chen welcomed with a smile. Yesterday, he heard people talking about Erwazi's return, but he never saw Chen Mo. Instead, he planned to go to Jianguoli in his free time.
Look, what he didn't expect was that Chen Mo was here, so he was very happy.
"Uncle Fourth, I know you love smoking, so I brought you two good cigarettes." Chen Mo smiled and handed the good cigarettes he bought to Uncle Chen. People in the village interact with each other, which is actually very simple and difficult. You can usually go home empty-handed.
, but if you don’t leave for a long time, or if you’re celebrating the New Year, it’s best to bring something with you. The gifts don’t have to be expensive, they are all thoughtful, otherwise they will be said to be impolite.
The good cigarettes that Chen Mo said are not too expensive. The price of a piece is no more than 100 yuan. This is also what his father told him. If the gift is too expensive, the recipient of the gift may murmur or even complain, because favors are not worth it.
If you give something that is too good or too expensive, how will others return favors in the future? Therefore, when giving favors in the village, it is usually about the same. Just choose mid-range things, so that the people who give them will be happy and the people who receive them will be happy.
I'm happy. It will be convenient if I return gifts in the future.
This also reflects some differences. If the family is rich and the relatives are relatively ordinary, then the relatives will gradually stop communicating with each other, because the rich people give high-priced items, and when they wait for the return gift, the others will
They will have headaches, cheap ones will be said to be insincere, and expensive ones will cause heartache, so they gradually stop interacting with each other. There is a certain reason. Unless you are asking for something, you will buy something expensive and give it as a gift. Otherwise, people in the village usually treat people with favors.
It's just about the same, no one can say anything.
Uncle Chen put away the cigarette with a smile and said, "Okay, I didn't expect Erwa to still remember your uncle's hobbies."
"Haha! I will never forget that! And I can't forget Fourth Uncle's wine. After I went out, I always missed Fourth Uncle's wine." Chen Mo also smiled. He found that after returning to his hometown, the number of times he laughed changed.
More than that, my hometown is better, I feel more comfortable.
"That's because your fourth uncle is not bragging about himself. Anyone who drinks the wine I brew here will never forget it." Fourth Uncle Chen is very proud of his wine. After brewing wine for a lifetime, his love for wine has become
A habit.
"Uncle Fourth, I came to you today to buy some of your wine. I wonder how much liquor you still have in stock." Chen Mo asked directly while sitting in the main room.
"Huh? It probably weighs several thousand kilograms. What, you want to drink? If you want to drink, just tell me and I will take care of it." Uncle Chen said, as a child, drinking a little wine is nothing.
"No, I want to buy all the liquor you have. I have a friend who wants to buy some local liquor made from pure grains, so I thought of you, Fourth Uncle." Chen Mo said. The wine brewed by Fourth Uncle Chen has no brand name and is made from pure grains.
Brewing is not overwhelming but also very fragrant. It is said that it is a craft passed down from the fourth uncle's grandfather's generation. However, among their brothers, only the fourth uncle inherited it, and the others did not inherit or learn from it.
"That's it, that's it! Now the total of finished wine is more than 6,000 jins. Even if it is a round number of 6,000 jins, it costs 10 yuan per catty. What do you think?" Fourth Uncle Chen usually buys wine for 12 yuan per catty.
But Chen Mo wanted it in large quantities, and he was a child of his own village, so of course it was cheaper.
"No, just pay your usual price." Chen Mo didn't want to cheat people in his hometown. He bought these wines to store them in the Qiankun Pearl. If the time was doubled and one year equaled ten years, then these wines would be
It tastes better than some famous wines. Besides, with the nourishment of Qiankun Pearl full of spiritual energy, it would be strange if it doesn't turn into a super good wine.
"Okay! If you say so, then so be it. I won't be pretentious. When will you come to drink?" Fourth Uncle Chen asked.
"Fourth uncle, you have to help me with the wine. Send it to my old house first. You don't have to worry about the rest." Chen Mo said.
"Okay! I'll deliver it to you later." Fourth Uncle Chen was also a straightforward person and nodded directly in agreement. He had also delivered wine before, so he just used his own small three-wheeler.
The two of them talked about common things, and Uncle Chen took out a small jar of old wine that he had collected for more than ten years, and drank it with Chen Mo. Not to mention, the wine was really fragrant and very pure.
The fourth uncle's children are healthy, but they are all working in other places, and there is no child who can inherit his family business and skills. Only the fourth aunt helps him, so when he saw Chen Mo coming, he opened up the conversation and talked a lot about his heart.
