When Hua Xiaogu followed a group of people and helped carry wine into the courtyard, he gradually saw the whole courtyard clearly.
It turns out that this is really a dormitory. The courtyards are lined up next to each other, and the doors of each courtyard are connected. When the child who just opened the door shouted, many people came out of the courtyard.
These are both male and female, but they all have the same characteristics.
Either their legs were broken or they were blind. In short, the men who came out had more or less old injuries on their bodies.
Just as Hua Xiaogu was wondering, Tian Languang patted Hua Xiaogu on the back and said to the man in the yard: "This is my new little brother, he is pretty good at drinking."
After that, he lowered his head and explained to Hua Xiaogu: "The people living in this courtyard are all veterans, and they all have military honors. The royal family provided money to support them, and they were comrades in arms, so they lived together.
Outsiders call this place the Veterans Institute."
Hua Xiaogu nodded, thinking that was the case.
She helped the twins, who were called Yuan Jia and Yuan Yi, and worked together to carry the wine. The wives and children of the veterans also rushed over. People in the courtyard were chatting and laughing, and were busy bringing out the dishes.
Seeing Tian Languang chatting and laughing lively with the group of veterans, Hua Xiaogu joined Yuan Jia and Yuan Yi.
Yuan Jia and Yuan Yi seemed to have long been accustomed to their young master's behavior. Seeing Hua Xiaogu's surprise, they also smiled and explained to her.
"Our young master has such a temper and likes to deal with straightforward people. He brings wine to the veterans' institute every month just to chat and drink with the elder brothers."
Hua Xiaogu nodded, feeling quite fond of the second young master of the Tian family.
Everyone in the world knows that they want to please the wealthy, but few people care about these veterans who have contributed to the country. They dedicated their youth and sound bodies to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and then spent their lives in this remote corner of the capital with no one paying attention.
Live a life.
But the second young master of this extremely wealthy family still remembered to visit them often.
"Little brother Yong'an, you have been craving for this wine, so you came with me. Why are you staying far away now and not coming to have a drink? Here, this is the cinnamon wine you picked, come and have a drink too.
Let's talk about the bowl." Tian Languang turned around and waved to Hua Xiaogu.
Hua Xiaogu saw the jars of wine being opened one by one. Suddenly, the whole yard was filled with the aroma of wine, which was extremely intoxicating.
There are several small plots of land sparsely opened in the yard, and some vegetables are grown on the ground. There are also two persimmon trees planted in the yard near the door. The persimmons on the trees are still green and are swaying in the wind.
He looked extremely happy.
Hua Xiaogu was infected by the lively atmosphere, so he put a smile on his face, stepped forward, and joined in the lively chat.
"Where are you from, little brother?" A lame old man holding a wine bowl asked Hua Xiaogu with a smile.
Hua Xiaogu quickly picked up the wine jar next to him and refilled the wine for the uncle: "I am from Xiaoyun Town. I have come to Beijing with my uncle to do business in the past two days, and I will go back in two days."
The uncle raised his eyebrows: "Oh? But that Xiaoyun Town in Yiyue Mansion? I heard that the wine koji made there is excellent."
Someone complimented her on how good her food was, and Hua Xiaogu was naturally happy. She smiled even brighter, nodded and said: "My family is a distiller. I came here in a hurry today and didn't bring anything to my uncles. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely bring it."
I will cook my own wine for all my uncles to use."
Tian Languang drank a lot. He drank two large bowls of wine in a row, then put down the bowl and exclaimed that he was very happy.
