Chapter 56: Wine
But where was Zhou Xinzhi at her mercy, "I said, when those men went to ask for accounts before, I didn't see you sit down and invite them to have a cup of tea first?" ”
After speaking, he took a bite unceremoniously, and after eating the last bite, Zhou Xinzhi threw the kernel under the tree in the courtyard.
"You ......" Liu was about to continue to say something, Du Lisheng and Aunt Wang and their group arrived outside the orchard, she was a little stunned, how could that fool stay with his mother? I said mother, could it be that you also heard that our orchard was occupied, and came back to share a piece of land with me? ”
She looked at Aunt Wang with some impatience, and seemed to forget that this orchard was the land of the Yang family back then, but she was used to covering the sky with one hand, so she automatically attributed this orchard to her domain.
"You are really shameless, this orchard was originally left by his father to our mother, even if it is written on the title deed, it is my name and my son's name, how can you have your share!" Aunt Wang was angry with her appearance, and pointed at her nose and scolded.
"Bah, look at you two mothers, old and stupid, if this family hadn't been supported by me, it would have been over a long time ago, so no matter what, this orchard should be mine." Liu's shameless got used to it.
After getting married, her mother's family rarely cared about her, and basically treated her like a stranger.
As the saying goes, the daughter who marries spills the water, so she gradually developed such a temperament.
But Yang An on the side couldn't listen to it anymore, "Village, village chief, this orchard is indeed this little lady's, the little lady gave a total of fifteen taels of silver at that time, I saw it, and the title deed was also given by this woman herself." He didn't dare to look at Liu's gaze at this time, but he still firmly stated the facts.
"Yang An, do you know that your lady said that the orchard was forcibly occupied by her husband and wife, what is going on?" The village chief of Naxi Village understood a little more, and his tone changed from casual at the beginning to cautious.
After all, the couple in front of him is not from his West Village, and if he really makes trouble, he will not be able to take care of it.
"Well, I'm curious, if I take it, how did this title deed come about? Are you going to say I stole it? Zhou Xinzhi snorted coldly, "You have to think about it with your pig brain, how do I know that this land is yours?" How do I know where your home is? Even if you know, your husband doesn't go out at home every day, and I'm not a transparent person. ”
There is no way to refute this, and the reason why she asked Du Lisheng to go back to get the title deed is for this reason.
If she didn't have the title deed in hand, no matter how she explained it, it would be empty.
"Girl, it's me who is wrong, I forgot to tell you that I am going to the village chief to change the name of the transfer, and I didn't expect that this woman was thinking of an empty glove white wolf." Aunt Wang stared at Liu angrily.
Even Gu Zhen frowned unconsciously, but this matter had nothing to do with him, the reason why he came over with his eldest mother was just that he was worried that she would be bullied.
"You dead old woman, you eat me and drink me, and now you are still elbowing out!" Liu's teeth itched, and she specially told this idiot not to come out, and to stay at home honestly, but as soon as he turned around, he went to find his mother.
Originally, this thing was going to be done, but there was such a fuss.
"Village chief, I, I'm ......" Yang An didn't say anything else for a long time, but looking at the disappointed face of the mother beside him, he was ruthless, "I want to divorce my wife!" ”
As soon as these words were shouted, everyone including the Liu family was stunned.
This Yang An is a well-known favorite wife in the village, but it is better to say that she is a pet, it is better to say that she is afraid, and the Liu family has a strong temperament, so in the past, she basically had the final say.
Unexpectedly, Yang An actually took this opportunity to tell the village chief that he was going to divorce his wife, which really shocked everyone.
"Yes, how to solve this matter, you should go back to the village to study, now the title deed is also in my hands, how to transfer, just finish it directly." Zhou Xinzhi is not interested in spending money with them, and as for whether to divorce his wife, it has nothing to do with her.
"I'm sorry this lady, we were abrupt, you can take the title deed to the village chief of your village and change it to your name, the land at the foot of this foggy mountain normally belongs to your village, but this is the land left by the Yang family, so it has been transferred to the West Village before."
Zhou Xinzhi waved her hand after hearing this and let these people leave, as for how they solved it, she wouldn't do her business, and she was not interested in listening.
The people who were still menacing just now all shut up, and they all dispersed for a while.
Only the Liu family was still scolding in place, but they were also dragged away by Yang An.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is dragged, and Yang An, who lacks that cowardice, is like a fierce tiger, and it should have been backlogged for too long.
"Did the lady guess that Aunt Wang would be on our side?"
When those figures disappeared, Du Lisheng asked curiously.
But what if Aunt Wang refuses to make this certificate for them? What if people turn to their own people?
Zhou Xinzhi nodded when she heard his question, "At that time, I just casually talked to Gu Zhen, this Aunt Wang has a pitiful status in the family, and Gu Zhen has some special feelings for Aunt Wang, so she will definitely not sit idly by, and then look at the son of Aunt Wang, it doesn't seem like she doesn't care about her mother." ”
"So when you came like this, Yang An also knew that you asked Gu Zhen to go to his house to pick up Aunt Wang, plus he had been bullied by his lady for a long time, if this incident really happened, he would most likely be on our side."
Du Lisheng asked in disbelief.
But when did the little lady start planning for this?
"You're right, I expected such a move at the time, although she didn't mention the name change of the title deed at the time, but I always felt that something was missing, so I was a little prepared."
It was also a matter of luck, but it turned out that she was right.
"Okay, this matter will be over, and when we go back, we will change the title deed, let's go first and see how the grapes are, if it is almost ready, I can prepare to make wine."
"Wine?" Du Lisheng was a little surprised, "Can this fruit also be made into wine and drunk?" ”
Zhou Xinzhi reacted when he heard him say this, this wine is a rare thing, in ancient times, it was mostly a delicacy that could only be tasted by palace nobles, as if ordinary people did not have this condition to taste.
"This grape can also be made into wine, and the taste is excellent, like this wine, it is basically a treasure that the Western Regions dedicated to His Majesty."
First, because the cost of this thing is too high, and ordinary people can't afford it, and secondly, grapes are not very common here, and she wants grapes from the system, which is enough to see how rare this thing is.
"I see." Du Lisheng nodded, "Is the lady going to entrust it to someone else to sell this time or do you plan to come by herself?" ”
Zhou Xinzhi was stunned by these words, but she only thought about it for a while before deciding, "It's better for me to come by myself, the price of this wine is not low, rather than being pressed with silver, it is better to open up a market by yourself." ”
This made sense, and Du Lisheng couldn't help but nod his head.
When the two of them stepped into the orchard, the grapes had begun to turn slightly purple, and should be fully ripe in a few days.
Zhou Xinzhi picked one casually, peeled off the coat and put it in her mouth, this taste is just right for sweet and sour, she likes to eat sour and sweet too, this grape is a perfect fusion of two flavors, not too sweet, but not unripe sourness.
It's good to eat at this time, but if you make sake, I'm afraid the taste will be a little worse.
"Loosen the soil on the surface of this place for me, and I'll water it a little." Zhou Xinzhi pointed to the ground under the grape trellis, "You must be careful, don't hurt the roots." ”
"Okay." Du Lisheng picked up an iron pickaxe and carefully dug through the dry soil on the surface.
Zhou Xinzhi then went to the hut on the side and took out the wooden basin that was used for watering before.
"Xiao Tongzi, exchange some nutrient solution for me, it doesn't take too much, a small porcelain bottle will do."
"Ding, master, the nutrient solution has been delivered, and a total of 10F value is consumed."
Zhou Xinzhi felt a pain in her flesh, who would have thought that the nutrient solution of this simple and simple small porcelain bottle would have to be exchanged for so many F values.
Resigned to his fate, he took the porcelain bottle, poured the nutrient solution into the basin, and went to the capital to fetch some water and fused it together, and then poured the water along the ditch dug out by Du Lisheng.
It's not too much to say it's oxytokine, this nutrient solution is really designed to make plants grow faster.
After all the watering was finished, Zhou Xinzhi straightened her waist with satisfaction, looking at the bunches of crystal clear grapes, and felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart, as if she was watching her child grow up little by little.
"Huh, you don't have to worry too much about it these days, you can just take a look at it when you go up the mountain every day, and after seven or eight days of work, this grape will be almost there."
Zhou Xinzhi patted the soil on her body and looked at the increasingly vibrant orchard with satisfaction.
"Lady, are you tired?" Du Lisheng looked at the little lady's crimson cheeks and the sweat-soaked hair, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"I'm not tired, I'm just a little tired." Zhou Xinzhi shook her head, but her physique was weak, but she had also raised a lot of money this time, and she was not as thin as before.
"Then you can rest at home for the next few days, and I'll do it myself if you go up the mountain."
"Okay, since there's nothing to do here, let's go back too, I see it's almost raining, go back early so as not to get caught in the rain." Zhou Xinzhi smelled the humid breath in the air, and screamed in her heart.
It should be because of her previous work, she is extremely sensitive to climate change.
But no matter how fast they walked, they didn't get faster than the downpour, and as soon as they walked to the entrance of the village, the rain gradually became heavier, and Zhou Xinzhi's clothes were wet, and the slender and delicate lines were exposed.
