80s Taoism

Zhang Youping put his index finger on his lips, signaling Liu Qiaoye not to speak.

People in the countryside have heard some legends about Meishan spells. Some things cannot be explained, and the spells will fail if they are revealed.

The wine flowing out of the bamboo tube not only did not decrease with the progress of time, but continued to increase. It was as if all the wine smell between heaven and earth had gathered here.

In the beginning, it took more than 20 minutes to fill a grilled wine jar, but it only took more than ten minutes to remove the jar. Soon the water tank was full. The two buckets were also full. The plastic barrels used to hold wine at home are also full, and the three grilled wine jars are also full.

Seeing that everything was full, Liu Qiaoye was sweating profusely, and couldn't help saying, "It's full, it's full."

It was miraculous to say that as soon as Liu Qiaoye uttered these words, the wine flowing out of the water tank stopped abruptly. The bamboo tube dried up all of a sudden, as if no wine had ever flowed through it.

"No more?" Liu Qiaoye stared blankly at the drained bamboo tube.

"You said everything, so the patriarch took back all the drinks." Zhang Jiaohua was not upset at all, this kind of thing can only be done according to fate, not forced.

"Ah?" Liu Qiaoye regretted it very much.

Zhang Youping smiled, "You can't be greedy. How can we deal with so much wine?"

Looking at the room full of wine, Zhang Youping found himself in trouble.

"It's not easy. Just take it to the street and sell it. By the way, hurry up and buy some big plastic buckets on the street and come back. You can't keep holding the bar in a water tank." Liu Qiaoye said.

Zhang Youping nodded and was about to go out. Zhang Shicai walked in.

"Hey, brother Youping, sister-in-law, are you roasting wine today? Then I am really lucky." Zhang Shicai sniffed, looking like he was enjoying himself.

"It's roasted wine, here, drink a ladle." Zhang Youping scooped a ladle from the bucket and handed it to Zhang Shicai.

Zhang Shicai thought that Zhang Youping was joking with him, and gave him a ladle of water. He happened to be a little thirsty, so he took the ladle and raised his head to drink. As soon as he entered the mouth, he was stunned. It was really wine. The taste is really good. But such a large ladle of wine, at least more than a catty, he could drink it, but he might not be able to bear it if he drank it on an empty stomach.

Zhang Youping and Liu Qiaoye's stomach hurt from laughing, Zhang Jiaohua laughed and clapped his hands.

"Brother Youping, why does your family use buckets to store wine? There is so much wine that there is no place to put it?" The reason why Zhang Shicai fell for Zhang Youping's tricks was because he never thought that Zhang Youping's family would store wine in buckets.

"There is really no place to put it. I have filled all the water in my house with wine. You can bring a barrel of wine back later." Zhang Youping is a very straightforward person. He has a good relationship with Zhang Shicai, just like a brother. A barrel of wine is still worth it.

"No, no, my family has only baked a jar of wine, which is enough for the Spring Festival. You can't finish all the wine, so why don't you sell it on the street?" Zhang Shicai asked puzzled.

"It was just roasted. I didn't expect so much wine to be produced. Now I am worried about how to drag these wines to the town to sell." Zhang Youping didn't hide it either, and he couldn't hide this matter anyway.

Zhang Shicai looked at Zhang Jiaohua, "I've heard of this kind of thing before, but this is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes. I really didn't expect it. You Ping brother, you go to the town to buy some buckets on my bicycle and come back. This wine needs to be disposed of quickly. After the new year, we will go to Guangdong. So much wine, you leave it for the caller to drink?"

"By the way, Shicai, what are you doing here?" Zhang Youping asked.

"I came here because I wanted to invite you to my house for dinner. Last time, the beggar saved my life, and I never treated the beggar properly. The snake disaster later was also thanks to the beggar. This time, it was thanks to the beggar again. I wanted to invite you all to dinner. But, your family has so many things going on right now. We can only talk about it later. Let's deal with the wine first." Zhang Shicai smiled helplessly.

"Shicai, the two of us have been like brothers since we were young. If it happened to me, would you help me? Don't you think you're a stranger?" Zhang Youping punched Zhang Shicai.

"All right, I won't mention this. It's very common for our two families to have a meal together." Zhang Shicai was very moved, and he could hear that what Zhang Youping said was not a routine.

Zhang Youping went to the town to buy more than a dozen 50-jin white plastic barrels, and put all the wine at home into the barrels. Zhang Youping did not touch the wine in the three grilled wine jars. One jar was kept for the New Year, and the other two were sent directly to his father and eldest brother. During the Chinese New Year, it is impossible to send an empty jar back.

Zhang Manyin was also taken aback when he received the wine jar sent by Zhang Youping, "Youping, you brought all the wine roasted by your family, what should you do with your family's New Year's wine?"

"I still have a jar at home. I roasted a few jars this time. I will go to Guangdong after the new year. I can't finish the wine. You drink slowly." Zhang Youping said with a smile.

Ma Donghua was very surprised, "Didn't the buckwheat leaves only make a pot of wine?"

Only then did Zhang Manyin realize that he wanted to ask Zhang Youping, but Zhang Youping had already walked away.

However, Liu Qiaoye was a little worried, "Zai Zai, how can we roast so much wine in our house? Could it be because we moved other people's wine to our house?"

My family produced so much wine out of thin air, if any family's wine disappeared, then my family would have to bear the reputation of stealing wine. Zhang Youping went to buy so many plastic buckets to fill wine, he must not be able to hide it from others.

"This wine comes from our stove, not from someone else's roasting wine jar. Can others blame us? Does the wine roasted by other people's home have such a good taste?" Zhang Jiaohua didn't know where the wine came from. How should he answer it?

Liu Qiaoye was still very worried, "It's better not to get it from someone else's house."

"Why would the gods do such a thing?" Zhang Jiaohua's words dispelled Liu Qiaoye's worries at once.

The gods have the power to turn stone into gold, so how can they turn water into wine?

More than a dozen plastic barrels of wine are very spectacular when they are lined up together. Tow it to town with a heavy-duty bicycle, with a maximum of four barrels in one trip. You have to go back and forth several times. It is not an easy task to sell a barrel of wine with fifty catties. However, fortunately, the taste of this wine is indeed much better than ordinary rice wine. Otherwise, Zhang Youping really felt overwhelmed.

"Father, can I sell wine with you tomorrow?" Zhang Jiaohua wanted to experience what it was like to be a small boss.
