"Xiang'er, what's in this jar is wine?"

In the mud room where the Lu family put the sundries, Lu Hong moved the big jar in the corner little by little, but Lu Erniang looked at the big jar and frowned. She didn't blame Lu Xiang'er for secretly making wine, but fantasized about the scene when Lu Xianger made wine, and she was a little distressed. Lu Xiang'er is only five years old, and she doesn't have much meat on her body, but this jar is almost as tall as her. It can be imagined that Lu Xiang'er had a difficult time when making wine.

Lu Hong didn't think of anything else, he was completely attracted by the faint aroma when he moved the altar. When Lu Hong lived in Qianzhou with Lu Erniang, he also went to the Piaoxiang Wine Workshop run by Lu Tai, and there were also a lot of fruit wines in the winery. But the aroma of some fruit wines is completely incomparable to the aroma emanating from this jar.

Lu Xiang'er saw that Lu Hong had already moved the altar out, so she walked to the side of the altar, removed the cloth on it, and broke away the mud that was pasted at the mouth of the altar. Suddenly, a thick aroma rushed to the face, quickly overflowing the entire mud room, and wafting outward.

"It smells so good." Lu Hong and Lu Erniang had never smelled such a fragrance, and couldn't help but take a step forward. But Lu Xiang'er was already holding a small bowl and scooped out half a bowl in the jar. Although the quality of this small bowl is not so good, the liquid in this bowl is so bright red.

At this time, Lu Xiang'er was already attracted by the color of this wine, and completely forgot that Lu Erniang and Lu Hong were still standing next to her, she brought the bowl to her mouth and took a sip gently. As the aroma of wine spread in Lu Xiang'er's mouth, she narrowed her eyes with great enjoyment, a look of satisfaction.

Seeing Lu Xiang'er's appearance, Lu Erniang shook her head, and just wanted to say, 'You really look like your father'. Lu Hong, who was impatient on the other side, also took two small bowls and filled two bowls. While handing it to Lu Erniang, Lu Hong had already lowered his head and was ready to drink. Lu Erniang smiled lightly, brought the small bowl to her mouth, and took a small sip.

"It's delicious. This wine is better than all the fruit wines my uncle made. Lu Hong drank the bowl and drank it in another bowl. Lu Xiang'er, who opened her eyes, saw Lu Hong's appearance and said busily: "Brother, although the taste of this wine is light, the strength of the wine is not small. Don't drink too much......"

"Xiang'er, leave him alone. Every time your brother goes to Piaoxiang Wine Factory, he is fed a bowl of fruit wine by your father. Lu Erniang has also drunk a lot of wine, but it is the first time she has tasted this aromatic wine. If it weren't for the fact that she still had the reserve of her elders, Lu Erniang would also like to have another bowl.

Lu Xiang'er looked at Lu Hong, and then looked at Lu Erniang, who couldn't cry or laugh. Unexpectedly, the Lu family, who deals in wine, are all good wine people, even children. However, not to mention, the wine made from these ancient grapes is really fragrant. Lu Xiang'er couldn't help it, and drank another bowl.

When Lu Xiang'er wanted to serve a third bowl, Lu Erniang's hand stretched out: "Xiang'er, A-Niang knows, you have also been fed wine by your father since you were a child." However, you're still too young to drink that much. ”

"It turns out that this is how I came here when I was a child." Lu Xiang'er was a little stunned, she didn't know what Lu Tai thought, she had been drinking for his daughter since she was a child. No wonder as soon as she smelled the wine, her stomach screamed. Lu Xianger thought that she was thinking too much about the red wine of her past life, but she didn't expect the real reason to be here.

After finishing talking about Lu Xiang'er, Lu Erniang snatched Lu Hong's bowl again, glanced at him and said, "Don't drink it, you want to drink it at dinner." ”

Originally, he was a little unwilling to hear that Lu Hong was not allowed to drink, but when he heard the second half of Lu Erniang's words, his eyes immediately lit up. Watching Lu Erniang carefully seal the wine jar, Lu Hong only then remembered that his aunt was also a good drinker. When he was in Qianzhou, he saw Lu Erniang drink a pot of wine, and he didn't have anything to do, and he cut new clothes for him.

Putting the wine jar back in its place, Lu Hong glanced at it reluctantly, and then took Lu Xiang'er by the hand and walked out of the mud room. Back in the main room, Lu Hong felt that his whole body was weak as soon as he did it, and his head was a lot heavier. Then it didn't take long for Lu Xiang'er to shake a little in his eyes, and finally it became two or three.

"Xiang'er, this wine is sweet to drink, and the wine is really strong." After saying this, Lu Hong couldn't resist the heavy drowsiness anymore, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After Lu Erniang entered the house, she saw that Lu Hong was already snoring, and Lu Xiang'er had a ruddy face but was embroidering a purse. Seeing this scene, Lu Erniang seemed to see herself after just leaving. At that time, she also drank wine every day, and only then did she make clothes for Lu Hong in her mood.

Sometimes I think about it, Lu Xiang'er's niece is really similar to Lu Erniang's aunt. For this, Lu Erniang is very proud and happy. But she didn't want Lu Xiang'er to be reconciled and divorced in the future, after marrying like her.

Thinking of this, Lu Erniang immediately walked to Lu Xiang'er and sat down, and said softly: "Xiang'er, A-Niang knows that you have experienced too many things at a young age, and your mind is very heavy, like a seven or eight-year-old child. But A-Niang wants you to live a happy life, can you tell A-Niang, how did you come up with the idea of making wine? ”

Although Lu Xianger was embroidering a purse, her thoughts drifted because of the wine, and she remembered the life in Qianzhou more clearly. After hearing Lu Erniang's words, she put the needle and thread in her hand aside, threw herself into Lu Erniang's arms, and said sullenly:

"A-Niang, originally Xiang'er wanted to sell wine to make money, let A-Niang count the money every day until she had cramps, and let her brother sleep every day until he woke up naturally. But A-Niang mentioned that A-Niang ate grapes, and Xiang'er remembered a lot of previous things. Now Xiang'er really wants to rebuild the Piaoxiang Wine Workshop, so that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty can drink the wine of the Piaoxiang Wine Workshop. ”

When Lu Erniang heard Lu Xiang'er say this, she knew it in her heart. Thinking of her identity as the daughter of a businessman, she was not valued by her in-laws after she got married, and she didn't ignore her as a wife and did something like that. Lu Erniang didn't want the only bloodline of the Lu family to have an ending like herself, and she wanted to persuade Lu Xiang'er to change her mind.

But when Lu Erniang lowered her head, she saw that Lu Xiang'er was already asleep, and couldn't help sighing: "Fortunately, Xiang'er is still young, and there is still time for her to change her mind." The status of Shinong industry and commerce, and businessmen is so low, how can a girl's family still marry into someone's family. Alas......"

Lu Xiang'er didn't know what Lu Erniang thought, so she slept beautifully. In fact, Lu Xianger didn't want to wake up, because she was dreaming. But Lu Hong held a chicken hand and kept scratching Lu Xiang'er's eyes, and Lu Xiang'er could only sit up angrily.

Seeing that Lu Xiang'er was angry, Lu Hong hurriedly laughed and said, "Xiang'er, the sun outside is not so poisonous anymore, my brother will take you up the mountain to play?" ”

"Up the mountain?" What kind of mountain did she go up for no reason, Lu Xiang'er looked Lu Hong up and down, and suddenly thought of something. Only then did he understand Lu Hong's goal of wanting to go up the mountain, so he said with bad intentions: "Brother, you want to go grape picking." ”

"That's right. A-Niang hasn't eaten for many years, and my brother wants to pick some for A-Niang. Lu Hong smiled, not wanting to admit that he was also greedy, but urged: "Xiang'er, if you don't go, if you don't go, I'll go by myself." ”

"Go, why don't you go." Lu Xiang'er immediately got up, put on her shoes, and followed Lu Hong out.

After telling Lu Erniang to make wine herself, Lu Xianger thought about making more wine and kept it for drinking slowly. This grape is not available all year round, but it is better to take advantage of this season when the grapes are ripe and pick more grapes, knowing that the better the grapes, the better the wine.

Moreover, Lu Xianger also wants to make more wine and mature her skills now. In this way, when Lu Xiang'er is older, she can make wine and sell it. After accumulating enough capital, Lu Xianger will be able to rebuild the Piaoxiang Wine Workshop. In addition to the secret recipe for winemaking left by Lu Tai, Lu Xianger also knows the distillation process that has not yet appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Smirking again, the grapes are so delicious?" Lu Hong especially likes to see Lu Xiang'er laugh, as long as she laughs, Lu Hong is also very happy in his heart.

Lu Xiang'er wrinkled her nose at Lu Hong and said, "It's not like you haven't drunk wine." Tell you, the grapes are delicious, and the wine can be more fragrant. ”
