Chapter 195: Chongyang Banquet, Osmanthus Wine
Helping Sandalwood is casual, a one-word thing, and I don't ask Sandalwood to thank her for her kindness - of course, it would be better if she could keep it in mind and help her at a critical time.
But such a thing is not necessary for Yao's mother and daughter. People like them have always only held grudges and never remembered good things. It's as if Gu Ming would rather spend so much effort to find a way on Gu Ming's body, and she has never thought of reconciling with Yao's mother and daughter.
The relationship between her and them is not only the contradiction in the previous life, but also destined to be a dead knot like the previous life. Because the Yao family is that kind of person, he can't tolerate any benefits for his concubine, but he has a good reputation in front of people.
Yao refused to bother with her marriage, which was exactly what she wanted. She didn't want to push her too much on the matter of reputation, lest Yao's dog jump off the wall in a hurry and arrange a marriage for herself that she couldn't get rid of - that would go against her original intention. Her current purpose is not to let her feel better when she has not touched Yao's bottom line, and then quietly accumulate her strength.
When his strength is finally enough, give her another blow.
"I heard that you make a lot of osmanthus wine? It will be the Chung Yeung Festival in a few days, and this time the family will not do much, but it is common to invite your own family to have a meal. You can't bring something out? Yao said to Gu Yu with nothing to do.
"The wine tastes too bad, I'm afraid to take it out**a**book** to read. I'm afraid that the novel will hurt the taste of my mother's distinguished guest......" Gu Ming said modestly. She had already thought about it when she was making osmanthus wine, and she had to hand over some of this thing as a "benefit fee". The osmanthus tree is at home, and she can't avoid the people in the house when she picks osmanthus flowers, and there is no way to make things.
I don't know how far the cousin of the Zheng family has done now? How many osmanthus flowers have you received? Grandma, uncle, they should have made a lot of osmanthus wine by now, right?
For the sake of this business, she took out all the money she could take out now.
Although she knew that this wine would definitely succeed, she didn't get any news for so long, and her heart became a little anxious. It seems that we have to pick these few days and find a way to go out.
This matter fell on Gu Yuan.
After Yao's notice of this, he searched carefully in Yurong Courtyard, but in the end, he didn't find where Gu Ming hid the osmanthus wine and osmanthus sugar. I couldn't pull my son to rob for such a little food, so I had to leave hatefully.
Hmph, a little osmanthus wine and osmanthus candy, she hasn't eaten it, why is she hiding it so strictly?
Also, did she think she didn't have to take it out if she hid it tightly? How naïve!
Sure enough, Yao's said that he could do it, although he was not very lively, but he invited the people in the big room and the second room, and told them in advance that the wine used at this banquet was the osmanthus wine specially prepared by Fourteen Niang in advance, which is said to have a sweet and long taste and a good taste. And the other daughters on her side are also ready to eat.
Osmanthus wine is too sweet and too sweet, the taste of the wine is too light, men are not good at eating this, but women and children like sweets. Zhao was reluctant to let Yao's beauty be in front of her, so she proposed that several girls in her family who participated in the Chongyang Chrysanthemum Banquet should also prepare gifts. Banniang has already prepared chrysanthemum wine, and it is said that the taste is also excellent.
Anyway, it is a treasure in front of her family, and this lady is not afraid that her daughter will be robbed of face by her concubine. On the contrary, you can take this opportunity to toss the unpleasant concubines hard, and my heart is really refreshing.
Seeing that both the Yao family and the Zhao family said so, the Cao family was no exception. Originally, among the three main rooms of the Gu family, she was the gentlest one for the concubine. But now that the Yao family and the Zhao family are forced to prepare their own snacks for the daughters who came to the third room for the banquet.
It's just that although it is said that every girl has to prepare, but the girl who came out has a lot of girls, so naturally she only needs to sit aside and move her mouth. But the concubine is not good, the work is not light, the three girls per person are very busy, and then they have to add another food...... It's impossible to do it without cooking it yourself.
The Double Ninth Festival will soon arrive, there is no need to mention the chaos in the third room, and the second room in the long room also starts early in the morning, and there are all kinds of shouting. It is inevitable that some people have the heart to be cunning, and they don't prepare food or anything in advance, and when the matter comes, they are so anxious that they jump to their feet, shouting, and try all kinds of ways.
Gu Ming also called a few rough girls, holding small flower hoes, digging up a piece of land, and digging out a few jars of wine buried inside. At that time, she buried several of them, but they were buried separately. Except for the girls she trusted the most, no one else knew.
"Fourteen Niang, this wine jar is too dirty, go and clean it...... slave maid" Lilac took the jar from Lamei, who was holding the wine jar, and said respectfully. The wine was buried for more than half a month, and it was finally taken out...... Don't know what the taste will be? Anyway, she had eaten the osmanthus candy, it was too fragrant and sweet, much better than what she had eaten before.
Therefore, she believes that this jar of osmanthus wine must be sweeter and more fragrant than what she used to eat.
"Don't be that troublesome. Remove the mud seal, then remove the small cloth bag, and divide the wine into a flask. Gu Ming had already brought the wine jug in advance, and he would directly send the wine jug to the banquet after a while.
As for how those people would react when they ate her wine, she didn't care. The one who invited them to drink, but she was not her.
"Fourteen Niang, why do you still have this kind of wine jug?" Shanqin also helped to serve the wine, picked up a wine jug that was larger than the wine jug next to him, and asked curiously.
Although Gu Ming still didn't dare to really let go of her heart, many things began to involve her. I don't know what happened to her in Wei Ziyuan, but now she doesn't trust her, but she still rushes in, and she is extremely loyal, helping herself coax the Yao family, which can be regarded as a lot of credit.
This wine jug is so big, she holds it in her hand, it looks a little ridiculously big, naturally it is not a device for ladies and ladies to drink sweet osmanthus wine. Gu Ming said with a smile: "This is what Daddy used on their table, and I took it together." ”
Shanqin glanced at Gu Ming in some surprise, and didn't understand why Fourteen Niang wanted to pour this soft and sweet osmanthus wine for the master. But she was also smart, and knew that she couldn't ask too much about it, so she poured wine in silence.
After a while, the wine jug was finished, Gu Ming ordered, and used up two jars of osmanthus wine.
She thought about it, and asked Lamei to bring out two more jars of wine, move the wine to the jar that had been cleaned, and then reseal it. The rest of the wine was refilled with soil and buried.
