Chapter 274: Golden Wine

"Another wine? I don't know what kind of wine? Xin Xianying asked. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I call the second wine the golden wine." Cao Pi put down his pen and replied with a smile.

Xin Xianying picked up the Zuo Bo paper at Cao Pi's suggestion, read the tea, and then said: "This wine is quite innovative at that time, most of the wine is brewed with rice, but this wine is crushed with malt and soaked in water, and then the maltose juice is released, and then the impurities and the wort juice are separated, and then the malt juice is heated with Ding, and then placed in a cool place to let it dissipate heat, and then the yeast is added, and it is allowed to ferment for half a month to a month, and then sealed in a wooden barrel, which can be stored for three months. ”

The process of self-brewing beer is just a small specialty in the course of undergraduate and master's studies for Cao Pi, a doctoral supervisor majoring in grain production, and it is very simple in his opinion, but Xin Xianying, as a Han Dynasty person, can read it again and again, but it is not easy, not to mention that it is even more commendable to read this process at such a fast reading speed, he couldn't help but look at this thin and handsome girl, put his arm around her shoulder and said: "Xianying, there are not many people who can be trusted as a husband, and the practice of this golden wine can only be passed on to you, In the future, the production of this wine will be in charge of you, and then at the foot of the mountain, all the utensils for the production of golden wine have been prepared in my estate, and they are placed in various warehouses, and each process can be done by different craftsmen in different seasons, such as cultivating the malt in a humid room in the spring and grinding it, releasing the malt juice in the late spring, separating it, heating it, and adding yeast. At the beginning of summer, fermentation and storage are done by different craftsmen, in different rooms or warehouses, and no one but Ken Young is allowed to know all the steps of the golden wine. ”

Xin Xianying nodded and said: "The husband is afraid that someone will steal the teacher, rest assured, Xianying is measured, the few dowry girls and aunts who came from Yecheng all grew up with Xianying, and they can be assigned to supervise the various processes, and those who have no work to do will stay in the house to serve Xianying, these people are illiterate, even if they talk to each other about these steps, they will not know what the husband is going to do." If someone else is used after fermentation, they will be even more unaware. ”

Cao Pi heard the words and said: "After fermentation, you can seal a group of slaves in the manor, and I specially bought a batch of slaves before. ”

After the two discussed, they went back to the couch and began to turn the phoenix, and then rested after the matter, the next day, Cao Pi sent twenty guards to escort Xin Xianying and several maids and healthy women to Xu Wushan's manor to make preparations for the golden wine, just sent Xin Xianying away, and was about to go to the state pastoral mansion to deal with government affairs, but saw a servant girl of Lu Lingqi came to Cao Pi, saying that Lu Lingqi invited him to go to the courtyard where he was.

Lu Lingqi does not pay attention to details compared to many women, her maidservants are still the four camp prostitutes who were taken from Xu Huang back then, at that time, those hard-working women were called to serve Lu Lingqi, and she has been wearing these women by her side, these few times with the army also followed a few women, when they did not go out, these women served in the mansion, and now married into Cao Pi's mansion, these women also followed, although Lu Bu also sent a few handsome and younger women from Dingling, But Lu Lingqi is still used to using these people, and she generally doesn't care much about the new maids, but just lets Cao Pi keep them in the house.

In Cao Pi's mansion, Lu Lingqi was the only one who sent someone to ask Cao Pi to go to his yard to talk, and asked, "Do you know what happened to Madame?" If it's not an important matter, I'll see you when I'm done with my affairs. ”

Dogs can freeze to death in the winter in Youzhou, and no one will work in the winter unless it is absolutely necessary. Now that the autumn harvest has passed, and winter is not far away, Cao Pi has to deal with many things before winter, and he is indeed busy.

The maidservant said: "A few days ago, I went hunting with my wife on horseback outside the city, and before I had gone far, my wife became unwell, dismounted and vomited, and vomited everything she had eaten during the day. ”

Cao Pi stopped talking when he heard this, motioned to the maidservant to lead the way, and went straight into the inner hall after coming to the courtyard where Lu Lingqi was, but saw that Lu Lingqi was furious: "Don't bring these things again, I really can't eat them, and I want to vomit now when I see minced meat." ”

Seeing Cao Pi come in, the scolded maid immediately saluted, Cao Pi waved them to take away the minced meat on the table, sat next to Lu Lingqi and said: "I am two months pregnant, so I should have been pregnant on the way to Xianbei." ”

Lu Lingqi was still angry, but she couldn't get angry with Cao Pi, she just said: "It should be so." ”

"It's really hard to eat minced meat during pregnancy, eat some roast mutton when you have an appetite, and ask someone to send some pickles when you don't have an appetite, and I will let someone send some vinegar to make Mrs. appetizing." Cao Pi said.

Lu Lingqi said: "I asked my husband to come over, I want to tell my husband that these days, I have to go to Sister Zhen more, don't come to my place to hang out." ”

After all, she is a woman in feudal society, and she is a little worried about knowing that she is pregnant in front of her eldest wife, so she is strong and Lu Lingqi also wants to persuade Cao Pi to go to Zhen's side more, if she is lucky, she can get pregnant early, otherwise she can appease the emotions of the main house.

Cao Pi nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Lu Lingqi said again: "If this child is a man, I don't want to give it to Sister Zhen to raise, either I will raise it for Sister Xianying, or let me raise it myself." In the eyes of the Han people, this can cultivate the children's awe of the main house, and the main house can still calm the scene after Lao Tzu dies, but in Cao Pi's view, this is actually useless.

"Madame, don't worry, I'm measured." After Cao Pi finished speaking, he left the courtyard and went to the state pastor's mansion, thought about it for a while, and then asked someone to send bamboo slips, and then found someone to write it, engraved a letter to his family, and then sent someone to Yecheng to send it.

In the evening, Cao Pi returned to the back house and immediately went to the courtyard where Zhen lived, and when Zhen saw Cao Pi coming, he smiled and said: "My husband and my two sisters are newly married, so I should go there and walk around more." ”

Cao Pi said: "Xianying has something to do today, she has been out for a whole day, and when she comes back, she is tired and can't bear to disturb, Lingqi is ..... pregnant." Cao Pi kept staring at Zhen when she spoke, and when she said that Lu Lingqi was pregnant again, Zhen didn't seem to move, but her pupils still shrank imperceptibly, and this detail let Cao Pi know that she had an incomparable surprise in her heart.

But the shrinkage was fleeting, as if it were an illusion. I saw Zhen's smile like a flower: "Then congratulations to my husband!" I hope it is a man, Wen Hou is brave, and my sister is so powerful, plus her husband is both civil and military, if it is a man, he must be the pillar of the world. ”
