Chapter 40 Making Wine
Xiao Hanyin ate the food made by Liu Qingshao, and a trace of warmth appeared in his heart.
He saw that she cared so much about himself that he didn't want to refuse at all.
So, Xiao Hanyin gave up explaining his injury, and even deliberately relied on his injury to ask Liu Qingshao to make him something to eat.
Liu Qingshao's cooking skills are fantastic, and most of the food he makes is something he hasn't eaten before.
In the past, Xiao Hanyin didn't pay much attention to eating, and felt that as long as he could fill his stomach, he could fill his stomach.
Since I met Liu Qingshao, ordinary meals have been difficult to eat.
However, after they opened the shop, Liu Qingshao was very busy, they all ate with the staff in the shop, and she rarely cooked for him alone.
Xiao Hanyin took advantage of her distress to make her make a lot of things that she hadn't eaten.
Liu Qingshao didn't know about his injury, thinking that he had been injured by a wild boar, so he not only bought the best medicine for him, but also stewed soup for him every day.
He's enjoying his day......
"What would you like to eat today?" Liu Qingshao forcibly left Xiao Hanyin at home, but she couldn't rest assured, so she came back early.
Since the matter of the ingredients has been settled, the things in the shop, she has gradually handed over to the pillar.
Zhuzi is only fifteen years old and very talented, but he has no experience, so Liu Qingshao will go to the shop every day to guide him.
Liu Qingshao currently has two shops, one selling barbecue and the other selling food and juice, and the business is booming.
She couldn't manage it alone, so she deliberately exercised the pillar and let him be the shopkeeper of the barbecue shop.
In fact, Liu Qingshao originally wanted Xiao Hanyin to manage it, but he didn't want to......
"Corn soup, and mapo tofu you made yesterday!" Xiao Hanyin was in a good mood.
"Good!" Liu Qingshao would cook three dishes and one soup for him every day, and in just a few days, Xiao Hanyin had meat on his body.
However, he was too thin before, and he became more and more handsome when he grew flesh.
Five days later, Xiao Hanyin's injury had already healed, and he didn't want to stay at home alone, so he insisted on going out with Liu Qingshao.
Liu Qingshao saw that his face was no longer pale, so he agreed.
After she went to the shop during the day, Xiao Hanyin was alone at home, which was indeed a little boring.
Xiao Hanyin is cold and doesn't like to make friends with people, Liu Qingshao couldn't bear him to be bored, so she agreed to let him go to the town with him.
After the two went to the shop, Liu Qingshao took him to the back street.
On the way, Liu Qingshao suddenly found someone selling grapes, and she immediately walked over.
"You want to buy grapes?" After Xiao Hanyin saw her move, her brows furrowed slightly, "This thing is not delicious, only pregnant women will want to buy it!" ”
Unripe grapes are indeed sour, and many people are reluctant to eat them, which Liu Qingshao knows.
However, she did not expect to sell unripe grapes.
"I know, but I'll buy it back for another purpose!" Liu Qingshao didn't say a word, so she bought all the grapes.
"Girl, do you really want them all?" The grape seller had no idea that he would meet a big buyer today.
"Well, please send the grapes to the front shop!" After Liu Qingshao gave the silver, she told him the address of her shop.
"Okay, I'll send it to you!" After accepting the money, he picked up his burden and headed towards Liu Qingshao's shop.
Liu Qingshao took Xiao Hanyin to the grocery store and bought a lot of sugar cubes.
"What are you buying so many grapes for?" She knew that the green grapes were not delicious, so she even bought them all, Xiao Hanyin was very curious about her intentions.
After all, Liu Qingshao rarely buys something useless.
Xiao Hanyin felt that she must have a purpose.
"Green grapes are not tasty, but they do something else!" Liu Qingshao smiled mysteriously.
"What else can you do with grapes besides eating?" Xiao Hanyin's curiosity was completely aroused.
"I'll tell you when I get back!" Liu Qingshao knew that there was no wine in this dynasty, so she bought those grapes.
The juice in her shop is extremely popular, but after all, juice is a seasonal thing, and there will not be such a good business in the winter.
Today, she happened to meet a grape seller and suddenly remembered modern wines.
Liu Qingshao used to be in the food business, so she knows how to make wine.
This time she came across grapes, so she wanted to give them a try.
After going back, Xiao Hanyin asked again about the use of grapes, and Liu Qingshao told her plan.
"Wine?" He had never heard of grapes before and was particularly interested in it.
"Well, when I brew it, I'll give you the first cup to drink!" Liu Qingshao saw that his eyes were shining, and she knew that he was interested in wine.
"I'll help you!" Xiao Hanyin directly picked up the Weng Zi she bought with the wine and walked in.
"Your injuries healed?" Liu Qingshao saw that he was carrying such a heavy thing, and walked over with a breeze, his eyes slightly cold.
Xiao Hanyin found that his lie had been exposed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
He was so excited that he had forgotten that he hadn't been healed.
"I told you before, I'm fine, you're too nervous!" Now that the lie has been exposed, Xiao Hanyin can't pretend anymore.
However, he stubbornly said that she was making too much of a fuss and had nothing to do with him......
Liu Qingshao looked at Xiao Hanyin, who was alive and well, but she was not angry in her heart.
When his injuries were healed, Liu Qingshao would only be happy, after all, he was injured by a wild boar to protect himself at that time. 17
Now, she was a little surprised to learn that Xiao Hanyin was lying to herself before.
"Since it's okay, come over and help!" Liu Qingshao glanced at him lightly and said.
"I'm sorry, I should have told you earlier!" Xiao Hanyin saw her calm expression, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes.
Although he had no intention of deceiving Liu Qingshao, he did rely on her nervousness and concern to eat a lot of delicious food.
After Xiao Hanyin calmed down, he immediately apologized to her.
Liu Qingshao has always cared about him and took care of him as a younger brother everywhere.
In fact, after the matter was exposed, he had a moment of panic in his heart, and he was worried that Liu Qingshao would be angry......
It was rare for him to meet someone who was genuine about him and didn't want to lose.
"What am I going to do?" After Xiao Hanyin heard her ask for help, she knew that she didn't care about pretending to be sick.
"This time, the Weng Zi we bought is a little bigger, and the grapes are a little less, so we can't use them for the time being!" When Liu Qingshao was shopping, she accidentally saw that a Weng Zi was very suitable for placing wine, so she bought it.
However, at the moment, this Weng Zi can't be used.
So, she directly called Xiao Hanyin and went to the village to specialize in making ceramic utensils.
The villagers of Nanshui Village are living a good life because of the proximity to the town and the fact that many villagers are hardworking and willing to do it.
There are many craftsmen in their village, and firing ceramics is one of them.
It's a good job, but it's a good business.
Most of the utensils used to hold things in ancient times were clay-fired ceramics.
Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin went to buy a lot of small jars and went back.
The small jar is not only light and convenient, but also easy to place, although Liu Qingshao is familiar with how to make wine, but she has never done it herself.
She wanted to make a small jar first, and if it was successful, she would buy more grapes and come back to make wine......
After Xiao Hanyin helped her wash the grapes, he watched her mash them in a small jar, and then put a lot of sugar in them.
"That's it, don't you need to put the lees?" It was the first time Xiao Hanyin had seen such a simple method of winemaking.
"You don't need to put the lees in the wine, but there are other processes, but it will be done in a few days!" The way wine is made is simple.
However, modern people have high requirements for life, and the process of making wine is much more complicated.
The tools here are not complete, so everything is simple, and wine is a novelty, and people who don't know the secrets can't make it at all.
When Xiao Han heard this, he wanted to taste the wine more and more......
Liu Qingshao told him that it would take some time for wine to be made!
Ten days later, the villagers who had provided them with ingredients before suddenly found Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin.
"Is there something wrong with you?" When Liu Qingshao saw them, her good mood vanished.
After the shop had enough ingredients, the business has been booming, and Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin go to the town every day to help.
They came back early that day, but they didn't expect to see so many villagers in front of their house.
"Green peony girl, you see that we are all from the same village, the so-called fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, why don't we sell the vegetables to you according to the old rules of the past!" Uncle Wu licked his face and said.
"That's right, we used to take care of our own dishes, and there will be no more problems!"
"Yes, yes, Qingshao, you can give us another chance!"
"Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, we let the past pass, and we will never make mistakes again!"
……
The villagers all hope that Liu Qingshao will be able to buy their vegetables and the chickens and ducks raised at home again.
"I have signed a contract with another merchant, and I can't go back!" Liu Qingshao refused expressionlessly.
These people only have interests in their eyes, and they have never read the righteousness of the same village with her, and she disdains to cooperate with such people.
"Green peony girl, it was all our fault at the beginning, you give us another chance!" Hearing that she had cooperated with others, the villagers were immediately anxious.
They still have a lot of vegetables in the field, if Liu Qingshao is not harvested, it can only rot in the ground, that is their hard work!
Everyone didn't want their hard work to be burned, so after discussion, they came to find Liu Qingshao together.
Who thought she would refuse in one bite......
"It was you who chose not to cooperate with me in the first place, so I signed the deed with others!" Whatever you sow, you will reap.
Everything was done by them, and Liu Qingshao was too lazy to take care of it.
"I'm sorry Qingshao girl, we were all blinded by lard before, your shop has so much business, it shouldn't matter if you charge more vegetables!"
"That's right, everyone grows so many vegetables because of you, do you really want to leave it alone?"
"Qing Shao, for the sake of your deceased parents, just accept our dishes!"
"My family is still waiting to sell the vegetables in the field and buy some meat to go home, the children haven't eaten meat for a long time, Qingshao, you can do it!"
……
Everyone kept begging Liu Qingshao, trying to win her sympathy, but unfortunately it was useless.
Liu Qingshao could see at a glance that they were doing it on purpose, how could they be fooled.
She has always been principled as a person, and what she decides will never change easily.
Seeing Liu Qingshao's tough attitude, those villagers could only reluctantly leave her home.
