Chapter 355: Massive Winemaking
"You're back. I heard my uncle say, don't you have three days to go back to Beijing? How can it be so fast? At the end of the unitary hour, Huang Yiyun heard someone knocking on the door, she stepped forward to open the door, and saw Li Wei outside the door, she said with some surprise.
"Something happened, so I came back early, and as soon as I got home, I heard my father say, you have gone to Beijing, and I will immediately come to look for you." The moment Li Wei saw Huang Yiyun, he hadn't seen Huang Yiyun for a few months, as if a flood had erupted, he stepped forward and hugged Huang Yiyun, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Something's wrong, nothing happened!" As soon as Huang Yiyun heard that something was wrong, she pushed Li Wei away, looked at him left and right, and was not at ease, so she turned on her ability and scanned it around.
After seeing that he was fine, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's not that I have something to do, it's that the son of Jingzhao Mansion Yin has a stomach problem and hurts badly, so we came back early."
"Big sister, who's out there? Got a supper meal? Huang Yiyun was about to say something, but Huang Liu, who was inside, saw that the eldest sister hadn't come in yet, so she shouted outside.
"Hurry in, my mother called me for dinner, have you eaten dinner?" If you haven't eaten it, let's eat a little together. Huang Yiyun heard Huang Liu's call, and she hurriedly welcomed Li Wei in.
"It's Li Wei here, eldest sister, what are you doing so slowly? Why don't you welcome Li Wei in? Li Wei has eaten, we just happened to be about to have dinner? After Huang Congjiang saw that it was Li Wei, he hurriedly got up and greeted Li Wei.
"Dad, you sit, I just came back? I heard my father say that you have come to the capital, so I came to see you. Li Wei waved his hand at Huang Congjiang and motioned for him to sit down.
When the three sisters of "brother-in-law", "brother-in-law" and "brother-in-law" saw Li Wei, they also got up and shouted at Li Wei.
"It seems that I didn't eat dinner, I'm going to fry two more dishes." When Huang Liu heard this, he also got up and walked to the kitchen.
"Mother, don't be busy, there are so many dishes, it's enough for us to eat." Li Wei saw that there were four dishes and one soup on the octagonal stone table in the pavilion, and he hurriedly said.
"That's it, when our wine is brewed, we will be able to drink a glass in the future." Huang Congjiang saw that Li Wei was not a shirk, and beckoned Li Wei to sit down.
The fifth sister went to the kitchen to pick up a set of chopsticks for Li Wei.
"Winemaking."
"It's a recipe for making wine that I read about in a miscellaneous book." Huang Yiyun smiled and winked at Li Wei and said.
"Oh! I see? "Li Wei still thinks his daughter-in-law is really good at making wine?
Originally, it was to make wine, but if you want to make other wines, not only do you need equipment, but also there are many complicated steps, and no one teaches them one by one, so it is not so easy to make wine.
Making wine is different, the wine is simple and easy to use, no one teaches you, as long as you follow the steps and processes, you will be successful.
No matter how much it is brewed, the craftsmanship will gradually improve, and the taste will naturally get better and better.
"Dad, mother, why did you enter Beijing so many days earlier this time? The son-in-law didn't go to greet you, did you miss the welcome? As soon as Li Wei saw that the meal was opened, everyone in the Huang family was silent, and they were embarrassed here.
Li Wei also knew that the Huang family did not have the rule of not eating and sleeping, and he was afraid that the rest of the Huang family thought that he had this rule, so Li Wei opened his mouth to ask.
"It's the Zhao family that needs to enter Beijing in advance, so we came a lot of time in advance." Huang Congjiang explained. There is a book shortage
"Dad, you will make wine today, there is not much wine, my family on the outskirts of the capital has also planted grapes, tomorrow I will ask all the people in the family to pick it and send it to you, so that the wine can be brewed out."
Also, when I went out, my father asked me to inform you, and tomorrow will hold a banquet in Yunhua Building to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you. At three o'clock tomorrow, I'll pick you up. Li Wei thought of this.
"Done." Huang Congjiang thought about it for a while, and then agreed.
Today, it cost more than 200 silver to buy grapes and sugar, and at the end of this day, more than 500 catties were brewed in the morning, and more than 1,000 catties were brewed in the afternoon.
Huang Congjiang also wanted to make more wine, so that he could sell it for money, but he was worried that the money would not be enough.
The grapes sent by Li Wei may not be in his eyes, or they may not be worth mentioning, they are all trivial matters to him.
Since it was given by the son-in-law, it is filial piety, don't shirk and resign, it's all your own family, and if you continue to resign, you won't be divided.
Huang Congjiang thought about it sharply in his heart.
"But I invited the Zhao family." Huang Yiyun glanced at Li Wei and asked.
"Naturally, I invited them together, they were all relatives, and I entered Beijing with you, so there is no reason not to invite them." Li Wei nodded.
After eating dinner, Li Wei sat for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
Early the next morning, there was a knock on the door.
It was the descendants of the Li family who brought them baskets of grapes to make wine.
It turned out that Li Wei went back yesterday and directly instructed the subordinates at the head of the family to hurry to Zhuangzi, take advantage of the fact that the morning was not too hot, pick the grapes, and quickly send the grapes.
Huang Yiyun and the others received the grapes sent by the Li family, hurriedly finished their breakfast, and couldn't wait to join the big plan of making wine.
Halfway through, Huang Congjiang just went out and bought a lot of sugar back, so he never went out again, and kept making wine with Huang and Liu's family.
Fortunately, the Huang family has a lot of people now, and the weather is hot, the grapes can be washed, dried, and cooled, and the grapes can be crushed, and then put into the wine vat, and then moved into the warehouse and sealed.
Huang Congjiang is responsible for fetching water, Huang Liu and Huang Yiyun are responsible for cleaning the grapes, and the third, fifth and sixth sisters are responsible for drying the washed grapes, and then put them in a cool place and spread them for a while.
After finishing a batch, and then getting another batch, the family has a clear division of labor, and they are not ink people, so they are quick with their hands and feet.
After working for most of the day, the Huang family finally made wine from more than 1,000 catties of grapes sent by the Li family.
All of them were sealed in the storehouse, and after a long time, they could ferment naturally, and then they could sell them or drink them themselves.
Huang Yiyun estimated that the wine made by their family in two days was almost nearly 4,000 catties, maybe less, because there may be losses in it.
Huang Yiyun thought that at least 10,000 catties of wine must be made, which is enough to sell, and she thought that she still had to harvest some more grapes and make more wine.
