The happy life of a farmer's little winemaker

Chapter 25 Late Night Visitors

"Xiang'er, if it weren't for you, I would still think this grape was poisonous."

Zhao Xiu picked a big and round grape, wiped the white frost on it, and threw it into his mouth. Looking at the villagers picking grapes nearby, Zhao Xiu's eyes were full of contempt, especially Mrs. Zhang, who was the most happy to pick grapes.

When Mrs. Zhang knew that Lv Xianger had made wine, she said that she didn't want to die and actually made wine with poisonous fruits. Later, when she saw that the Zhao and Zou family, who had been drinking wine for many years, had nothing to do, she began to eat grapes. Moreover, every time the grapes are ripe, she will pick a lot and is not afraid of spoiling.

Zou Yue knew Zhao Xiu's thoughts, so she nodded his head and smiled, "You can't stop your mouth when you eat. It's over. Pick it quickly. Otherwise, we won't be able to make much wine this year.

"Sister Yue, you just got married to my brother, but you haven't really become my sister-in-law, so you start to take care of me." Since Zou Yue made a marriage with Zhao Yi two months ago, Zhao Xiu has made fun of her a lot. Zou Yue was also a little uncomfortable with the change of her identity. She actually understood shyness in front of Zhao Xiu and Lv Xianger. However, seeing that Lv Xianger didn't look at the joke, Zou Yue hurried to fight with Zhao Xiu.

Speaking of which, the becupation of Zou Yue and Zhao Yi really surprised Lv Xianger. Lv Xianger knew that the ancients got married early, but she didn't expect that she could get married at the age of 12. Fortunately, Sister-in-law Zhang finally chose Zou Yue as her daughter-in-law because she didn't know why, but Lv Xianger secretly wiped her sweat.

Although Lv Xianger is also ready to get married and have children in this ancient times, if she is married at the age of 12, she really can't stand it. Of course, this kind of 'unbearable' refers to the body. Lv Xianger's soul is more than 30 years old, and she can be the mother of the child.

After laughing for a while, the three began to pick up the grapes. Because there are more people picking, the harvest of Lv Xianger's three is relatively small. Fortunately, the wine made from the grapes picked by the three is enough for three families. The sun rose higher and higher, and the sun was also full. Lv Xianger and the three of them went down the mountain early.

Zou Yue and Zhao Xiu put all the grapes in Lv Xianger's yard, and the two left separately. Lv Xianger went to the kitchen alone to heat the hot morning meal and simply took a bite. Lv Erniang went to the county to deliver fruit wine and buy some ingredients for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lv Hong went to the school and didn't come back until the afternoon.

After dinner, Lv Xianger went into the mud house to make wine. In anyone's opinion, the steps of brewing grapes by Lv Xianger are very simple, and it can be said that they can be seen at a glance. Aunt Zhao and Mrs. Zou watched it for a day before they went back to try it themselves. But the wine brewed by the two is either bad or sour. It smells disgusting, not to mention drinking it. It was also at this time that the two of them understood that this wine could not be brewed by ordinary people, and no one could make such a delicious wine.

Lv Xianger can make delicious wine. In addition to her brewing knowledge in her previous life, the most important thing is her heart when doing things. At each step, she had to think about it several times in her heart until she was sure that there were no small mistakes, and Lv Xianger would not proceed to the next step. And the most important thing about wine is the subsequent stirring, fermentation, and temperature control.

In ancient times, there was no thermometer, but Lv Xianger relied on the experience of her previous life, and there were also times when she failed. Fortunately, with the accumulation of experience, Lv Xianger's serious figure out that her brewing skills are getting higher and higher. Not only is the number of mistakes less and less, but the wine is stronger and stronger.

After putting all the grapes picked today into the jar prepared before, Lv Xianger came out of the mud house. Feeling that the afternoon sun was not so strong, Lu Xianger turned around and went into the room to sleep. It was not until Lv Erniang's ox cart entered the yard, and the big rooster that felt that his territory had been violated made a series of strange screams that Lv Xianger was woken up.

Rubbing her eyes, Lv Xianger slowly walked out of the room. Seeing a pile of ingredients and 'snacks' on the ox cart, her eyes were completely opened and she immediately ran to help. The mother and daughter quickly cleaned up and let the big rooster come down honestly.

As before, Lv Erniang cooked some of the ingredients she bought when cooking dinner, so that Lv Xianger and Lv Hong could relieve their buns. The Lv family has indeed made a lot of money, and Lv Erniang is also very clear about the principle that money should not be exposed. Usually, the Lv family eats the same as the villagers. Only when there is a festival, Lv Erniang will buy some delicious food. This kind of living habit is also to develop the thrifty character of Lv Hong's brother and sister.

After having a big dinner, Lv Hong first watched Lv Xianger write once before reading his own book. Lv Xianger, who finished writing, sat on the paved mattress and waited for Lv Er Niang, who had cleaned up the kitchen and entered the house, calculating the money she had earned these days.

Lv Erniang took out the wine money she got back from the county today and put it in front of Lv Xianger, especially wanting to see her eyes shining. Then, Lv Erniang will pinch Lv Xianger's little face as usual and smile, "Little money fan, my eyes will shine every time I see money, and I don't know who you look like."

Lv Xianger will laugh and don't say anything in most cases. Seeing this, Lv Erniang will lower her head and settle the account. Since the Lv family officially sold fruit wine to restaurants and restaurants in the county, Lv Erniang has specially made an account book record. It has to be said that Lv Erniang came from the merchant's house, and this account is very clear. After Lv Erniang finished calculating, Lv Xianger immediately knew that for more than three years, the Lv family had saved more than 1,000 taels of silver. This money is enough for the three of them to live comfortably for a lifetime.

"Mom, do you think if all this money is changed into a penny, will you count the money to cramps?" Lv Xianger still remembers her two dreams, which is to let the whole family sleep until they wake up naturally and count money until they have cramps.

Lv Xianger often put this sentence in her mouth. Lv Erniang didn't wait for her words to fall, so she smiled and said, "Our Xiang'er likes to count money until she cramps. When there is a chance in the future, A Niang will change this thousand taels of silver into a penny for you to count."

"Let's count together with Xiang'er. Xianger is really afraid that she will count cramps." As soon as Lu Xianger finished speaking, the mother and daughter laughed.

Lv Hong, who was sitting under the oil lamp reading, listened to the laughter of Lv Erniang and Lv Xianger, and also smiled. Just as he turned his head and opened his mouth, just as he was about to say something, Lv Hong's expression paused, and then his face changed. Putting down the book in his hand, Lv Hong immediately stood up and whispered, "Mother, you and Xianger are meeting in the room. I'll add grass to our cow."

"Well, go ahead. When you come back, let's have a rest." Lv Erniang nodded and began to clean up the money and account books on the mattress.

Lv Xianger was strange. Lu Hong looked a little solemn when he went out. There is no need to be so serious for Niu Tiancao. Lv Xianger turned her eyes and smiled at Lv Erniang and said, "Niang, my brother and I will go to add Cao to Niu."

"Go ahead. What kind of grass do you want to add? I just want to see the stars in the yard. What's so beautiful about this star and moon? Your brother and sister want to see it so much. Lv Erniang shook her head, didn't care about Lv Xianger, and seriously hid the silver.

Lv Xianger went out of the door and saw that there was no one in the yard, so she suspected that Lv Hong might really add grass to Niu. But when she turned around and was ready to go back to the house, Lv Xianger suddenly felt her heart beat suddenly. With this feeling, she lightened her steps and slowly walked to the cowshed behind the house at the foot of the mountain.

Just by bypassing the house, Lv Xianger was lying alone in the cowshed, and there was still a faint sound. Finding that this was a stranger, Lv Xianger was immediately shocked and opened her mouth to shout, but her mouth was tightly covered by one hand. At the same time, a familiar whisper came from his ear: "Don't shout, it's troublesome to let people know."

Lv Xianger, who had been covered with her mouth, no longer knew how to react. Her whole body was very tight, her eyes were wide open, and her eyes were full of panic. But when she heard Lv Hong's voice, Lv Xianger's whole body softened, and her forehead was sweating, which obviously seemed to be scared.

Seeing that he was scared Lv Xianger, Lv Hong felt a little guilty and quickly explained, "Xiang'er, I don't want to scare you. But Mr. Song's injury, if the villagers know..."
