National Beer

Today is a family dinner.

Tonight, Mei Yuxiu specially called her two proud disciples home in Shanhai Province, with only one theme, which is to celebrate Qin Dong's beer winning the provincial quality beer competition.

"Mother, let me come." Seeing Mei Yuxiu's lover busy in the kitchen, Qin Dong took the initiative to walk into the kitchen.

"Your senior brothers will accompany your teacher to talk. The meal will be fine in a while." Ms. Han is very kind. One of their two sons is working in politics in a certain province in the southeast and the other is studying abroad. The couple treat Qin Dong and Dong Qingkun as sons. .

Especially knowing that Qin Dong is still the grandson of the deceased, Aunt Han sees Qin Dong differently.

"Let Xiao Qin come, I love to eat the dishes made by Xiao Qin." In the living room, Mei Yuxiu shouted with a smile. In the sun, a potted clivia on the coffee table burst into bright green.

Qin Dong rolled up his sleeves, fried and fried, steamed and stewed, stir-fried kidneys, sweet and sour carp, braised prawns in oil... the several dishes were delicious and delicious, and Dong Qingkun was confused.

Do people who can brew beer still cook?

"Today, let's celebrate. We don't drink beer today. We drink white wine." Mei Yuxiu smiled and took out a bottle of Moutai. "This is wine for state banquets."

Dong Qingkun took it with a smile. He had studied beer, but didn't know much about liquor, so he passed it to Qin Dong.

Oh, the five-star golden wheel. The gears on the golden wheel are twelve instead of fourteen. This is the wine six or six years ago.

Look again, the words on the label are still produced by the local state-owned Moutai Distillery, the back label is in simplified vertical format, and the content is still "Developing the Three Revolutionary Movements". Qin Dong looked at the bottle cap again, um, not the iron bottle cap, the cork stopper It is sealed with pig urine bubble skin and sealed with external paper. The body of the bottle is also earthenware. The bottom of the bottle is not glazed and has no foot ring. It is very simple.

Oh, if this bottle of wine is in the future, the price will not be less than three million yuan.

"Beer will never be aged, Xiao Qin, there are two more bottles, you and Qing Kun each have one bottle."

"Teacher, this is too expensive." Qin Dong said sincerely, "I can't ask for it."

"Teacher, you can keep it for yourself. This wine has a vintage." Dong Qingkun has also dabbled in liquor. Moutai, which has been used for more than 20 years, has become more and more precious.

"Your teacher gave it to you, just take it. Why didn't he give it to others? It's not because you are his students!" Ms. Han smiled, "This is the turbulent era when your teacher went to Guizhou..." She Hesitate to speak and stop.

"Come on, full." Mei Yuxiu personally picked up the wine bottle, first poured a full cup for Qin Dong, and then poured it on Dong Qingkun. The old man solemnly raised the azure fine porcelain wine cup, "This is from Jingdezhen. I usually don’t drink baijiu, and I don’t use it easily. Tonight, we will use wine from Jingdezhen and baijiu from Moutai Town in Guizhou Province to celebrate Xiao Qin’s victory in the eight-year beer competition in our province... "

The old man said solemnly and solemnly, and he solemnly clinked glasses with the two disciples before he drank it.

"Brother, I respect you." Qin Dong took the initiative to touch the wine cup with Dong Qingkun, and both of them dried up.

"Moutai is good wine," Mei Yuxiu said with a smile looking at the wine bottle in his hand. "However, our wine is not bad, come." Watching Qin Dong fill himself and Dong Qingkun with wine, he raised the wine cup. , "I wish Xiao Qin good results in the lower part of the appraisal and win another trophy at the Food Expo!"

"Little brother, I hope you will continue to work hard and win three battles and three victories!" Dong Qingkun took the initiative to touch the cup with Qin Dong this time, quite like a senior.

Three battles and three victories, Qin Dong smiled. In the morning, Mayor Li and District Mayor Hu of Shen Nan came to the Arctic Ocean Brewery. The Arctic Ocean Brewery must also participate in the four-year beer inspection and appraisal of the Ministry of Light Industry. Mayor Li’s For opinions, he will communicate with the Provincial Second Light Department and the Food Industry Association, and the Arctic Ocean Brewery will also participate in the first national food expo.

The target he set for Beibingyang Beer is also to win three battles!

...

"Well, Xiao Qin's craftsmanship, I feel it's a pity to be a factory manager," Mei Yuxiu picked up a piece of sweet and sour carp, "this taste, the master of Chunhelou is also this taste..."

"It's delicious," Dong Qingkun's eyes glared when he ate, "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the junior brother can be the director and cook..."

The atmosphere in the living room became more and more active. Seeing that there was no gap between the two disciples, Mei Yuxiu became happier. He got up and went to the study to fetch half of the manuscript. On the cover, the book "Guide to Beer Industry" was written in lower letters. Big characters.

"Look at the bottom half, you two, help me finish the manuscript."

Dong Qingkun glanced at Qin Dong, eyes full of expectations and longings. Qin Dong held up the wine glass and was about to offer another glass of Mei Yuxiu. "Due to hard", there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Sister Han stood up with a smile, "Is it Xiaoli? Qing Kun, her wife still cooks their own meals at home, come together, Xiao Qin is not an outsider."

She smiled and opened the wooden door, but saw two women standing outside the door. The woman in front was tall, but the one behind was greenish, and looked a little worried and uneasy.

"Who...who do you look for?" Sister Han asked.

"Is this Dean Mei's house?" the tall woman asked, she had already seen Qin Dong in the living room, oh, that couldn't be wrong.

Qin Dong had already heard the voice, "Mother, they are looking for me, Mo Mei, Xiaoqing, come in."

Oh, the uninvited guest, Elder Mei stood up, and Dong Qingkun also stood up, "This is?" The last time Du Xiaoju came to Shen Nan, Mei Yuxiu was obviously not Qin Dong's object.

"This is Li Momei from the Union of Arctic Ocean Brewery," Qin Dong introduced. He didn't know the man behind him either. Looking at the inquiring gaze of the teacher and the teacher, he explained with a smile, "Teacher, Master, you are getting older. The eldest brother is not by your side. There should be personal care at home, so I made my own decision and asked Li Momei to find a nanny for you, who usually cooks, cleans, and takes care of your daily life."

"Nanny?" Mei Yuxiu looked at her wife, "That's not good, your sister and I are in good health, and there is no need for a nanny at home,...well, this is not good."

"There is no impact, everyone understands," Qin Dong put Mei Yuxiu back on the sofa, "Now reform and opening up, everyone's ideas are changing, and no one talks about it."

The nanny Li Momei was looking for was a distant relative of her lover. The little girl asked for thirty yuan a month. Qin Dong mentioned fifty yuan and paid her half a year's wages in one lump sum.

Aunt Han looked at Qin Dong with emotion. Neither of her sons thought of this, but Qin Dong had thought about it in advance, but she couldn't make up his mind when seeing her wife still hesitating.

"Teacher, you and your aunt are getting older, no one can tell," Dong Qingkun also persuaded, "Don't worry, now many old cadres have hired nanny at home."

Seeing that Mei Yuxiu was still hesitating, Qin Dong smiled, "Come on, Xiaoqing, let grandpa and grandma take a look."

The little girl timidly walked in front of Mei Yuxiu. The age of her granddaughter gave Aunt Han a feeling of compassion, "How old is the girl?"

Listening to her saying this, Qin Dong understood that Aunt Han had agreed.

"My name is Wang Xiaoqing."

Wang Xiaoqing?

Everyone laughed, Mei Yuxiu also laughed, "It's the same name as Liu Xiaoqing," he smiled and looked at Qin Dong, "Well, you hired me a movie star!"
