058: New Wine 3

"It's so pretty." Jiuniang frowned, looked at Hu Die's increasingly serious face, and laughed out loud. smiled and stepped forward to take Hu Die's hand, "Let's go, go eat morning food, I don't know what Senior Brother did today." ”

"Senior brother?" Hu Die frowned, and asked incomprehensibly: "Are all the people you cook here Fusang?" ”

"That's right." Jiuniang nodded, "Actually, I've done it a few times before, and my senior brother dislikes me." ”

With a smile, Jiu Niang opened the door, and the warm sunlight poured into the room, making Jiu Niang feel a little warm. I used to feel a little cold when I went out, but now that I'm just freshening up, the sun has already risen?

Standing in the courtyard with squinting eyes, Jiu Niang raised her head to look.

"No matter how good the sun is, there will be times when dark clouds will cover it." Behind him, Hu Die said with a light smile, stepped forward and patted Jiuniang's shoulder.

Jiuniang was slightly stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and nodded at Hu Die.

In the dining room, Gu Huacheng had been sitting in it for a while, as if he had been waiting for a long time. Hu Die and Jiuniang sat next to each other on Gu Huacheng's right hand, Fusang sat on Gu Huacheng's left hand, and Jiang Nu sat down next to Fusang.

Gu Huacheng nodded and said, "After eating this meal, the big guys are going to do it." ”

"Yes." Fusang winked at Jiu Niang.

Hu Die lowered his head to cover his lips, blocking the seemingly nonexistent smile at the corner of his mouth.

Gu Huacheng stomped on Fusang hard under the table.

Jiang Nu raised her head and glanced at Fusang quickly, smiled, but lowered her head quickly in a daze.

Jiu Niang looked at it, didn't speak, just buried her head in eating.

After eating, he rushed to wash the dishes, Gu Huacheng paced behind Jiu Niang leisurely and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"What do you think?" Jiu Niang's hand paused for a moment, and turned her head to look at Gu Huacheng.

Gu Huacheng raised his hand and scratched his head: "About ...... About how this beer is brewed. ”

"Haven't we already discussed?" Jiu Niang shook her hand. Pushed Gu Huacheng.

Gu Huacheng frowned: "Where are you going now?" ”

Jiuniang stopped, glanced at Gu Huacheng, and smiled: "Go and shout Hu Die to go to the wine pool, by the way, Master Barley is ready?" ”

Gu Huacheng frowned, looked Jiuniang up and down, and then nodded and said, "Ready." ”

Jiuniang nodded and glanced at Gu Huacheng's back: "Since everyone is okay now, let's start work now?" ”

After the barley was washed, Jiu Niang commanded Fusang to crush all the barley. In this era, there is no grinder, everything is manual. Fuso frowned, his hair pounding with a huge mortar. Jiu Niang went to drive a large iron pot to the stove again, added warm water, and poured the crushed barley of Fusang into it. Watch as the barley swells and splits in the water, becoming thick and mushy.

Gu Huacheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Isn't this just making liquid?" ”

Jiuniang was stunned, nodded, but shook her head again: "It's not like this, it's over, there are still many steps." ”

Gu Huacheng squinted his eyes and looked at Jiu Niang, and nodded for a while.

Jiuniang separated the wort from the malt through the light gauze net to obtain a clear wort. Smelled it, it didn't seem to taste like beer at all. Could it be that something went wrong there?

Jiuniang bit her lower lip and couldn't help but think about it carefully, the fragrant smell of beer in their era was mainly because of hops. That is, hops.

Her eyes fell on the snake flower, and Jiu Niang glanced at Jiang Nu: "Boil water." “

Jiang Nu nodded, and immediately put the pot that had been sitting on the stove again. Jiu Niang frowned at the pot of boiling water, until she saw that the blisters were getting bigger and bigger, and they should be boiling, and the hops were thrown in.

Waiting for the scent of hops to come out. That's when the pot of water was removed.

Hop water and previously separated wort are mixed together and fermented with koji.

Jiuniang let out a long sigh of relief.

Gu Huacheng frowned: "That's it?" ”

"Probably so." Jiu Niang smiled, "Master." Let's use that green jade porcelain bottle to hold some and take a look, maybe we will know how this tastes in a few days, if something is wrong, we can continue to change. ”

Gu Huacheng frowned, but still nodded. Hu Die had already taken the green jade porcelain bottle in Jiuniang's house, glanced at Gu Huacheng, and then stepped forward to hold a bottle of "wine" and sealed it alive.

Fusang looked at Hu Die's movements, and didn't know which tendon was wrong or what, so a sentence suddenly popped up: "Why is the junior sister's baby, Hu Die is more comfortable than the junior sister?" It seems that this thing should have been Hu Die's, not my sister's. ”

Jiuniang was a little embarrassed, thinking that she was just stupid, who knew that as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Hu Die's face a little uneasy.

Thinking about it again, Jiu Niang somewhat understood.

Fusang's words, if the tone is a little kinder and a little more relaxed, it can be understood that this is a ridicule of Jiu Niang, who knows that when Fusang said this, he had a cold look, and the feeling given to people became a ridicule of Hu Die.

Hu Die naturally couldn't bear it, but he just guarded Jiuniang, but he didn't show too much.

Jiuniang smiled at Hu Die: "Hu Die, senior brother, he can't speak, don't mind, he just wants to laugh at me." ”

"Well, I don't ......" Before Hu Die's smile could be raised, he was finished halfway by Fusang and stiffly drooped.

Fusang smiled coldly and said, "I'm not laughing at you, I just think that your things are always put in other people's places, what they look like." ”

Jiuniang opened her mouth, glanced at Hu Die with some concern, turned her head to stare at Fusang and frowned: "Where is it put in someone else's place, not to mention that Hu Die is not someone else for me, this bottle has always been placed in my own place." Senior brother, did you take the wrong medicine today? ”

"Heh, sure enough, in this world, whoever says Hu Die, you are not happy. Jiu Niang, in your heart...... Forget it, I'm sorry. Saying that, Fusang arched his hand at Hu Die, didn't look at Jiuniang again, pushed them away and walked out.

Jiuniang raised her hand to support her forehead a little weakly, looking at Fusang only felt inexplicable, and turned her head to look at Hu Die again. Jiuniang sighed: "Hu Die, don't take it to heart." ”

Hu Die glanced at Jiu Niang, nodded with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I won't go to my heart, I just didn't appear at the right time, I hit the muzzle, and I can't complain about anyone." ”

Looking at Fusang's back, Hu Die thought thoughtfully for a while, then turned his head and glanced at Gu Huacheng again, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more intriguing.

On the morning of the third day when Hu Die stayed in the wine, Qing'er came and knocked on the door.

As soon as I saw Hu Die. Qing'er cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Sister Die, why don't you go back?" Sister Die, doesn't she want Qing'er? Sister Die, no matter how you go, you can't say anything to Qing'er, Sister Die, do you know how worried Qing'er is about you these days? ”

Hu Die looked at Qing'er and was stunned for a while before asking, "Don't you know that I'm here?" Why do you think I'm not going back? ”

"Didn't Mr. Gu say that he wanted to redeem his life for Sister Die?" Qing'er looked up at Hu Die, a little puzzled.

The people in the courtyard looked around for a while, and Gu Huacheng took a scroll and read it with relish, and he didn't even notice that the book was taken down. Jiu Niang pulled Jiang Nu to study a box of rouge in a matter-of-fact manner, but the two of them never used such bright colors on weekdays. Fusang was about to fetch water with a wooden bucket, and even completely forgot that the bucket was still full, but he just thought about it and wanted to pour it into the water tank behind Hu Die.

The corners of his mouth twitched. Hu Die smiled a little helplessly, stretched out his hand and flicked Qing'er's forehead: "Who did you listen to, maybe I heard it wrong." ”

Gu Huacheng's expression loosened slightly, and he glanced at Hu Die. coughed lightly at Jiu Niang: "Jiu Niang, follow me to the study." ”

"Oh, okay." Jiuniang nodded and glanced at Jiang Nu.

Jiang Nu immediately said, "I remembered." I've got to go to Mofu today......"

"Jiang Nu, you should come to the study with your senior sister." Gu Huacheng frowned and glanced at Jiang Nu, and glanced at Jiu Niang.

Jiu Niang was stunned for a moment. nodded his head, took Jiang Nu's hand, and went to Gu Huacheng's study.

Hu Die kept watching Jiuniang and them go away, then put away the smile on his face, glanced at Qing'er, and sighed: "How many people in Fenghualou are talking about Mr. Gu wanting to redeem me?" ”

"That's a lot." Qing'er frowned, looked at Hu Die for a while, and then asked a little embarrassed, "Sister Die, will you go?" ”

"Naturally not." Hu Die frowned, "It's just that who spread this?" ”

"This Qing'er doesn't know. It's just that Qing'er thinks that maybe this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Gu. When Sister Die's Fang Cai Qing'er said that Mr. Gu was going to redeem you, so many people's faces changed. Sister Die, don't you have a good relationship with that Jiu Niang, haven't you heard anything from her? Qing'er frowned and said to Hu Die.

Hu Die sighed and shook his head: "No, in the past, Hua'er told me that she wanted to redeem me, but I think it ...... now She shouldn't have that kind of thought anymore, and I think I made it clear to her that she shouldn't think like that anymore. And Gu Huacheng ...... Heh, Gu Huacheng still can't figure out his own affairs, where does he have time to take care of my affairs. Speaking of this, apart from Mama's knowledge, only Hongzhi knows. After a pause, Hu Die slapped the table suddenly, "Little hoof, I really want to turn the sky upside down!" This girl wants to see how capable she is. ”

"Then Sister Die, but I'm going back with Qing'er today?" Qing'er's eyes lit up and she stepped forward to ask.

Hu Die pursed his lips and shook his head gently: "No, I can't go back today, I have to go and see how the beer brewed by Hua'er is, don't worry, Qing'er, you go back first, and when I go back, I will definitely bring good wine." ”

When Qing'er heard this, a look that continued to be weird appeared on her face.

Hu Die frowned: "What?" ”

Qing'er glanced at Hu Die, gritted her teeth and said, "Sister Die, that red lotus seems to have some friendship with the Soho girl who is not drunk and everyone is drunk. ”

"Oh, that's interesting." Hu Die narrowed his eyes, suddenly smiled, and whispered a few words in Qing'er's ear.

An unbelievable look appeared in Qing'er's eyes, and she looked at Hu Die for a while before nodding slowly. (To be continued......)
