Chapter 8: Making Wine
After Su Jin and Zhong Lichen left Huang Bo's blacksmith shop, they wandered around the street again, Su Jin looked like she was wandering, but in fact she was looking for grapes, Su Jin walked a few streets and didn't find any fruit sellers, could it be that there are no fruits in this time and space? Zhong Lichen saw that Su Jin looked east and west and seemed to be looking for something, but Su Jin didn't open his mouth, and he didn't want to ask too much, and after walking a few streets, Zhong Lichen saw that Su Jin hadn't opened his mouth yet, so he couldn't help but ask
"Su Jin, what are you looking for?"
"Me, I'm looking for grapes and fruits"
"It turns out that I was looking for fruits and vegetables, let's go, I'll take you there, the fruit and vegetable sellers are on another street, and that street sells fruits and vegetables" Zhong Lichen said and took Su Jin to cross the street left and right, and came to the said fruit and vegetable street, Su Jin walked into the street and saw that there was really a street that sold fruits, and the fruits sold were no less than in modern times
Su Jin walked a few stalls, chose a stall to sell relatively fresh, bought ten catties of grapes, one catty of pears, and then went to the pharmacy to buy black plums, hawthorns, dates, schisandra, and then went to buy some white sugar and rock sugar
"Su Jin, can you eat all the grapes you bought?"
"This, you'll know the effect when you return to Qinxiangju" Su Jin and Zhong Lichen had just stepped into Qinxiangju, and Xiao Lizi saw that his master and Su Jin were carrying so much, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help get something
"Miss Su Jin, you went out once, bought so many things and came back"
"Yes, these things are useful," Su Jin put the things on the table
"Little Lizi, you go and bring me an empty clean wine jar out"
"Miss Su Jin, what do you want to do with the empty wine jar?"
"Su Jin told you to take it, you can take it, where is there so much nonsense" Zhong Lichen saw that Xiao Li Zi was talkative, and hurriedly scolded
"Yes, yes, the lesson of the son is that Xiao Lizi will go and get it" Xiao Lizi was scolded by Zhong Lichen, and hurriedly ran in and ran to the wine cabinet, took out a wine jar, and put it in front of Su Jin
"Little Lizi, you go and help me get a big pot out, put it next to the well in the backyard, and then fill the big pot with half a basin of water, and find a clean big basket, wait for me to remove the vines of this grape with scissors, and put it in the pot to clean, and after washing, put the grapes in the basket to dry."
"Okay" Xiao Lizi didn't ask much this time, and immediately went to do something
Painter Chen continued to paint the vegetables, Su Jin was also busy cutting the vines, Xiao Lizi went to find something, Zhong Lichen saw that everyone was busy, and he didn't do anything there, so he was a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly went to get a pair of scissors, and sat down opposite Su Jin to learn to cut the vines with Su Jin
"How to cut Su Jin" Su Jin saw that Zhong Lichen also came to help cut the vines, so he hurriedly put down the scissors in his hand and taught Zhong Lichen how to cut
"Use scissors to get close to the fruit stalks, and then cut the grapes one by one, leaving a little stalks, and keeping the stalks to avoid hurting the skin, do you understand?"
"Well, I understand" Zhong Lichen nodded, and also tried it in the same way as Su Jin, well, it's not bad, with Zhong Lichen's addition, ten catties of grapes will be ready in a while, Su Jin came to the backyard with the cut grapes, and Xiao Lizi has already prepared everything
Su Jin put the grapes in the water and washed them, and then put them in the basket to dry, and after finishing these, it was already noon
"Painter Chen, what dishes haven't been painted yet?"
"Miss Su Jin, now it's the last dish to be painted"
"Okay, then I'll take these dishes down and reheat them and eat them like this, anyway, I haven't touched the chopsticks, how about it? Zhong Lichen"
"Well" Hearing Zhong Lichen's words, Su Jin entered the kitchen with the dishes, Zhong Lichen also followed with two bowls of dishes, Su Jin lit a fire, heated a few dishes at will, and beckoned Chen Painter to sit down and eat together, at first Chen Painter had some excuses, but he couldn't withstand Su Jin's warm invitation, so he sat down to eat together
After Su Jin and the others finished eating, Chen Painter continued to paint the last one, after Su Jin cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, the grapes that were drying were almost drained, Su Jin poured all the grapes into a clean basin, and then washed his hands.
Crush them one by one by hand, leave the grape skins, grape seeds and pulp in the basin, and then put the white sugar into it according to the ratio of six catties of grapes and one catty of sugar, stir well, and after the white sugar is exhausted, pour the grapes into the wine jar prepared in advance, cover the mouth of the wine jar with a cloth, and then Su Jin smeared a layer of soil on the outside
"Miss Su Jin, the pit you told me to dig is done"
"Okay, you put this in the pit for me, be careful" Su Jin carefully put the wine jar in Xiao Lizi's hand, and Xiao Li Zi also carefully hugged the wine jar, for fear that one would accidentally break the wine jar
"Miss Su Jin, the last dish has been painted"
"Okay, you wait a minute, I'll come out right away" Su Jin handed the wine jar to Xiao Lizi and hurriedly walked out
"Miss Su Jin, take a look" Painter Chen handed over the rice paper he had drawn
"Well, that's right, this way, Painter Chen, you bring this back, and draw a dozen more pictures of each one, this can be."
"Yes, then I'll draw it and send it to you."
"Okay, that's bothering you"
"Don't bother, then I'll quit first, and there will be a period later"
"Slow down, Painter Chen" sent Painter Chen away, Mu Ning walked into the backyard, and Xiao Lizi had already buried the wine jar of wine
"Zhong Lichen, come over here, I'll read it to you, you write it down"
"Row"
"Read it," Zhong Lichen held a pen in his hand
"Drunken Fairy House opened on September 1 and offers a variety of exquisite cuisines...... With this voucher, you can enjoy a 5% discount and a free drink"
"Okay, Su Jin, take a look"
"Uh... I don't have to look at it, I'm illiterate," Su Jin said very calmly
“....”
"Xiao Lizi, you take this piece of paper, print thousands of sheets, and then take it out and distribute leaflets a few days before it opens."
"Su Jin, what's the use of this?" Zhong Lichen asked puzzled
"This is a coupon, you can get a discount, for example, a vegetarian dish is 4 copper coins, with this coupon, you can only charge you two copper coins and send a juice, understand"
"Wouldn't that be a loss? Miss Su Jin"
"Xiao Lizi, you are stupid, we will not mark the price a little higher, and then discount it"
"Look at you stupid, get it printed quickly"
"Yes, Childe" Xiao Lizi hurriedly ran out, and disappeared after a while
"This kid" Zhong Lichen looked at the back of Xiao Lizi leaving and shook his head
