Chapter 580 Shen Jie's Wine Tasting Experience
Zhou Tian personally applied for admission to Changping University of Traditional Chinese Medicine at the Ministry of Education. The application process was not easy, but he managed to solve it by using his personal connections.
In addition, the leaders also exerted some pressure, so even though the Ministry of Education was a little difficult at first, it finally approved it.
At the beginning, Zhou Tian didn't know that his younger sister Zhou Ting would choose Changping University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. If he knew, he would definitely stop her. It's not that he didn't believe in the teaching quality of the traditional Chinese medicine university he founded, but he knew very well that traditional Chinese medicine is not a subject that can be graduated in a short time.
It takes a full eight years from admission to graduation, and this is still a reduction in content. After all, Chinese medicine is profound and involves too many subjects, which are too complicated to be divided simply into surgery and internal medicine.
If a good Chinese medicine practitioner wants to achieve something, he or she not only needs to learn the most basic methods of observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation, but also needs a lot of medical experience. Just studying is not enough to become a good Chinese medicine practitioner.
Therefore, when the TCM University was established, it was decided that the first three years would be spent on learning theory and understanding herbal medicine, and the next five years would be spent on half a year of study and half a year of practice. It was very hard.
Zhou Tian naturally didn't want Zhou Ting, the youngest and most favored sister in the Zhou family, to become a Chinese medicine practitioner. Unfortunately, by the time he knew that his little sister had applied to study at a Chinese medicine university, she had already received her admission letter.
"Okay, daughter-in-law, I'll go the day after tomorrow!"
Zhou Tian felt warm in the heart and responded with a smile. It was obvious that he was very pleased from the bottom of his heart that his wife was thinking about his third brother and younger sister.
This New Year, all the big and small things in the family were arranged by the daughter-in-law. Even the grandparents often praised the daughter-in-law's arrangements in front of him.
This made the second brother, the third brother and the youngest sister all respect Shen Yulin as the eldest sister-in-law. She really lived up to the saying that an elder sister-in-law is like a mother.
"Virtue?"
When Shen Yulin heard what her husband said, she naturally knew what he was thinking, but she didn't say anything more. She turned and left the main room and walked towards the kitchen. Now that the head of the household was back, as the eldest sister-in-law, she certainly couldn't let her brother-in-law busy himself in the kitchen.
Although her brother-in-law certainly doesn't care, she is not ignorant.
Sure enough, after a while, the sounds of Shen Yulin and Zhou Hao pushing and shoving each other came from the kitchen, which made Zhou Tian, his grandmother and his mother-in-law all very satisfied with Shen Yulin's approach.
"dinner time!"
Ten minutes later, as Zhou Hao's voice was heard, he walked in carrying a fragrant plate.
"It smells so good, Uncle, this is braised fish, I love it so much!"
Behind him, Xiao Zhiming and Xiao Zhiye followed closely and came in skipping and jumping.
"It's delicious, you can eat more later!"
Zhou Hao listened to the two little guys' babyish flattery voices, and couldn't help but put the braised fish on the table, rubbed the two little guys' heads, and then shouted to Zhou Tian: "Brother, carry the dishes, you won't just let me carry it myself!"
"Okay, I get it. You're the only one who always orders your big brother around!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian gave Zhou Hao a displeased look, then stood up and started working with his second brother and wife.
When the last plate of vinegar-fried shredded potatoes was served, everyone sat down around the table. Zhou Zhinan, Zhou Zhiqiu, Zhou Zhiyi and the two little ones put down their studies and sat next to their daughter-in-law. Grandpa, grandma and mother-in-law each held a little child in their arms and fed the three little ones with a loving look on their faces.
The rest were father-in-law Shen Jie, Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao sitting together. The big table was full. This did not include Zhou Yu and Zhou Ting who were already in college. If they came back, I'm afraid such a big table would not be able to accommodate them.
Zhou Tian looked at the scene in front of him, and to be honest, the satisfaction in his heart was simply beyond words. In the beginning, his original wish was to have a wife and children, and a happy family, but it was not until today that he felt that he seemed to have achieved it.
"Come on, today is the second day after Xiaohao graduated. Let's wish him a bright future, great achievements, and to become a pillar of the country soon! Let's raise our glasses!"
The more Zhou Tian thought about it, the happier he felt. He stood up and poured a glass of wine for his grandfather, father-in-law, Zhou Hao and himself. He also poured a glass of Arctic Ocean soda for Wu Xiao, grandma and his wife. Then he picked up the glass and said.
"Good! I wish Xiaohao a bright future and great success!"
Everyone responded enthusiastically, standing up, raising their glasses and clinking them together, then drinking them all in one gulp.
"Good wine, my God, this wine doesn't seem to be the Maotai sold in the supply and marketing cooperative!"
After drinking the wine, father-in-law Shen Jie was the first to feel that the wine was unusual. He couldn't help but savor it and asked.
"Dad, it has to be you. This is the Lai Mao I bought at the store in 1951. Unfortunately, there weren't many of these drinks in stock at the time, and I didn't have much either. I took it out specially today!"
Zhou Tian immediately gave his father-in-law a thumbs up and explained with a smile.
Of course, this was just his explanation to the outside world. Although there was not much Lai Mao in his space, there was not a small amount. This was what he had seized from the enemy spies. However, because he had no preference for alcohol, he had left it in his space and forgotten about it.
It was last night that he suddenly remembered it, so he took out a few bottles. There were still five or six boxes of Lai Mao in the space that had not been touched. As for Moutai, after collecting it over the years, he didn't know how many boxes he had, but in short, there were at least a hundred boxes.
"Hahaha, maybe I, your father-in-law, am not good at other things, but when it comes to drinking, I am an expert!"
Zhou Tian's words seemed to have hit the spot for Shen Jie. He then began to talk incessantly to his son-in-law about the pros and cons of various types of wine. He nodded helplessly. For the first time, he regretted taking out the Lai Mao last night.
"Okay, stop teaching Xiaotian all those wine lessons. Do you think everyone is as drunkard as you?"
Seeing her father-in-law talking excitedly, mother-in-law Li Yuling couldn't help but interrupt with a frown, saying that her son-in-law Xiaotian didn't like to drink, and she didn't want her husband to raise her son-in-law into an alcoholic.
"What is a wine barrel? I was tasting wine, yes, it was wine tasting, if you don't know that, stop talking nonsense!"
Upon hearing this, father-in-law Shen Jie became dissatisfied and retorted.
"Okay, I don't care whether you are a wine barrel or a wine tasting, but you are not allowed to teach Xiaotian your messed up ideas!"
Li Yuling glared at her father-in-law instantly. Her father-in-law wanted to struggle, but when he saw his mother-in-law's expression darken, he could only pretend to cough a few times: "Okay, no more, no more, come on, let's drink!"
Zhou Tian laughed secretly in his heart when he saw this, but he was actually relieved. After all, if his mother-in-law hadn't come forward, who knows how long his father-in-law Shen Jie would have needed to talk?
