Chapter 179: Winter Hunting
Time flies, time flies!
Time flies by and it is the end of December, and there are still ten days before the Chinese New Year.
Since he came back from Qi County last month, most of the cats are at home when Su Ran is fine, and every day he is either in the study or in the main room to accompany Zhao Huarong to relieve his boredom, or he goes to the wine shop.
The first batch of liquor in the winery has been successfully brewed, and there are 500 jars, each of which is filled with 10 catties of jars.
Just yesterday, December 19th, most of the wine was transported away by Shen Yijin.
Among them, Su Ran left thirty altars and asked Shen Yijin to find someone to send them to Qi County's fragrance for ten miles.
Last month, Shen Yici only stayed here for three days, and then left in a hurry because of something.
The first batch of liquor at the brewery was all made from rice. It took more than 30 days from brewing, fermentation, and jar loading.
This is still because in a hurry before the year, according to Su Ran's calculations, it would be better to ferment for more than ten days.
Even so, it made the workers of the winery excited that they couldn't find the north, especially Shen Yijin, since the aroma of wine came out, it was like eating the Ten Perfection Tonic Pills, smiling every day and walking like the wind.
Everyone thinks that he may not be so happy to marry his daughter-in-law.
"Brother Su, Brother Su, are you okay!"
Su Ran rolled his eyes, slowly buckled the lake-green belt, and then walked out of the door.
The little loach in the courtyard was holding a bow and carrying an arrow on his back beside the stone table, his face faintly excited, but forced.
"What's the hurry, Brother Lin Chun didn't say that the day before yesterday was to gather at the right time, and it was not too late."
The little loach wore a cotton hat on his head and thick clothes, his face was much whiter and more tender than before, and his mouth was misty.
"Hehe, this isn't the first time I've gone hunting! So excited. ”
"Okay! I'll go to the main room and say something. ”
In the main room and side hall, more than a dozen little girls from the village gathered together to quietly learn to make headdresses and bracelets.
Zhao Huarong leaned on the soft collapse, unconsciously touched his belly for almost four months with one hand, and looked at a group of flower-like girls sitting quietly in the room with handiwork.
"Madam, I forgot how to do this," Guo Ting's face was full of shame, Childe had taught her three times, but she would still forget.
Zhao Huarong just wanted to say that he would take it and take a look, but Su Ran had already opened the thick cloth curtain and came in.
"Which one forgot?"
"Childe!"
"Su Gongzi!"
The girls in the room looked up/back at Su Ran, and they were all very happy.
Su Ran nodded at the girls, smiled, took the hair flower in Guo Ting's hand and looked at it, slightly disgusted: "I forgot it again!" Let my wife teach! ”
Raised his eyes to look at Zhao Huarong, who had already sat up, "Sister, Guo Dong and I are ready to go out, come and talk to you." ”
Guo Ting, who was secretly scolding herself for being stupid, raised her head, she was quite worried about her brother.
"Safety is paramount, you know?" Zhao Huarong actually didn't agree with Su Ran's entry into the mountains in winter.
Su Ran smiled, of course she knew that safety was the most important thing, but she still responded with a well-behaved face, and then looked back at the girls.
"I learned it today, when I go home to do it, don't cut corners for the sake of quantity! We have to look good so that we can sell it at a good price, and in five days we will go to the town to sell it together. ”
Among the dozen girls, ten of them are very poor, one of them is called Juan'er, her parents have eight children, she has three sisters above, three younger brothers and one sister below.
The poor Juan'er sisters in the family wear the same set of winter clothes, and when one of them goes out, the other will definitely hide in the house because he has no clothes.
When Su Ran first heard about it, he was shocked, and even a little unconvinced. It wasn't until she and the little loach, Lin Xiaoya and the dog that they walked around the village and got to know each other.
It was only then that she really understood what it meant to be poor.
I'm embarrassed!
It was also a coincidence that I saw Lin Xiaoya and Wufu girls getting together to embroider purses and make head ropes.
Su Ran thought of teaching them to make some headdresses and bracelets, hoping to help them earn some money and solve their current predicament.
Especially from a family like Juan'er.
"Master Su, don't worry! We will not live up to your kindness," Wufu is now grateful to Su Ran, grateful to him for selflessly teaching them the manual skills to make money.
Of course, at first, they were surprised that a man could make women's things.
Zhao Huarong's mood at that time can be described as mixed. Later, she was relieved that her younger brother was really different from other men.
"Whoosh"
"Hit," the little loach jumped up and turned around, "Brother Su, I shot a pheasant." ”
"Look at you, I've been practicing for a few months, just a pheasant."
Su Ran had a smile in his eyes, but his tone was slightly disgusted.
Lin Chun patted the little loach on the shoulder, "That's good, go and pick up the pheasant back." ”
Guo Dong was also eager to try with a bow and arrow, he was very excited and nervous, this was his first time hunting in the mountains!
Lin Qiu looked around and said to a few people: "This has just entered the deep mountains, and most of them are small prey like pheasants, let's go in again, or just shoot some pheasants back?" ”
He remembered that a few months ago, Hechi and they went back with a big game, and some people looked at the heat and ran into the mountains to hunt the prey, but the prey was not hunted, and the people were injured.
"Enter again, Brother Lin Qiu, I still want to beat a wild boar and go back!" The little loach was carrying the pheasant that had not yet died, and his face was red with excitement.
"It's really that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers," Lin Chun sneered and looked at Su Ran, "Can you enter?" With the two novices, he was a little worried, so he asked Su Ran.
The little loach's eyes were blazing, and he was afraid that Su Ran would say no words.
"It's not impossible to enter," Su Ran looked at the little loach Guo Dong, "You are not allowed to walk around at will, especially not to see the prey chasing fiercely." ”
"Don't walk around, never walk around," the little loach patted his chest and promised, and the fire in his eyes was very strong.
Guo Dong scratched his head, "Childe, I will never leave you outside of Sanzhang," he will not forget that Childe is the master, and it is his duty to protect Childe.
Along the way, Su Ran watched everywhere and listened to all directions.
In addition to the cold in the deep mountains, some seasonal flowers and trees wither and turn yellow. Most of the trees are still vigorous and verdant, just like in summer.
The five men walked for half an hour and stopped at an intersection.
"A little further on the left, there are a few lower peaks, with valleys and small lakes, and it is possible to hunt goats and deer. On the right is a little bit into the mountains, and there are many prey, but there is also great danger. ”
After Lin Chun finished speaking, he looked at a few people, "To be safe, go to the left!" ”
Su Ran nodded, with two novices, she didn't know how dangerous it was in the mountains. Fortunately, it was winter, and many large prey animals were hiding in the caves.
