In this way, time flies quickly, and every few days, Qi Ning asked Zhu Xiuwu to put the pickled crab roe and various fruit wines fermented and filtered out into a ten-pound jar and send them to the shop to sell, and then pull the wine lees when he comes back. If there are not enough jars, buy jars.

Whether it is wine or plum wine, peach wine and apricot wine are sold for 20 yuan, and a pot is only two taels.

Crab roe are sold as side dishes, and two small dishes cost ten yuan.

Sister-in-law Zhu asked her brother and sister-in-law to help dig bamboo shoots, and sent them to Zhushan after they were cleaned, and the bamboo shoots sent to Qi Ning also took Handong to make dried bamboo shoots and pickled bamboo shoots, and the dried bamboo shoots were kept for cooking, and the pickled bamboo shoots were mixed with chili peppers to make side dishes, which was also ten cents a plate. Dried bamboo shoots are sent to Hu Shopkeeper for some to be used for duck stewing.

On August 13, Qi Ning's bamboo shoots were enough to eat for a year or two, so he didn't let Sister-in-law Zhu accept them.

Qi Ning instructed Zhu Xiuwu to send the harvested fruits and crab roe to the city every three days, so he took Handong to pack up his clothes and pull a cart of jars back to the city.

Let Qi Fugui give Shopkeeper Hu and Master Zhou a jar of peach wine, a jar of wine, a jar of plum wine, a jar of apricot wine, five catties of drunken crabs, and five catties of pickled bamboo shoots as a festival for the August Festival.

gave each of the Lu brothers a jar of wine and five catties of drunken crabs. It's not that Qi Ning is a philistine, but that gifts should also be given according to people's economic ability, because people have to return gifts.

Qi Ning and everyone ate in the courtyard, took Han Dong to sit on a chair and look at the moon in the sky, I don't know what happened to Jing Su, he originally wrote a letter a month, but this time he didn't write for several months. Qi Ningqi didn't write it to him either.

When Qi Fugui came back, Mrs. Zhou also came, bringing two bags of good tea, two bags of dim sum and a wild ginseng from her mother's house that was more than ten years old to Qi Ning.

"Why did my aunt come in person, you are also very busy during the holidays. You may be seated. Qi Ning hurriedly stood up and continued Mrs. Zhou.

"I've wanted to come for a long time, I went back to my parents' house some time ago, and I only came back yesterday, I heard your uncle say, you gave us a big yard, such a big gift, how can I not come to thank you in person." Mrs. Zhou had only heard her old man talk about Qi Ning several times, and she had always wanted to see Qi Ning without a chance, but when she saw Qi Fugui going to give a gift to her, she simply packed her things and followed.

"Originally, I was supposed to go to greet my aunt, but I heard Uncle Zhou say that you went back to your parents' house, so I planned to wait for you to come back."

"I went back after the New Year, hey, my mother's home is too far away, I haven't been back for many years, and this time I went back for more than a month. We haven't seen each other since. ”

"My aunt is back, and I will have to walk around a lot in the future."

"I can't ask for you to go. I'm just a son, and I've been looking forward to a girl in the early years, but I'm not blessed, and I'll be your mother's house in the future, and you can go whenever you want. Mrs. Zhou saw that Qi Ning was speaking cheerfully and honestly, and she couldn't help but like it very much.

"My aunt often comes to sit when she has time, and she can taste the mountain grapes I picked myself." Qi Ning took the grapes sent by Han Dong and handed them to Mrs. Zhou diligently.

"You kid, sit down, let's talk." Mrs. Zhou hurriedly took the grapes and put them on the table, took Qi Ning's hand and sat next to each other.

Here, Mrs. Zhou hated Qi Ning, and over there, Xiao Yunsheng looked at the salute brought by Shopkeeper Hu, and snorted from his nose: "Okay, Shopkeeper Hu, you are more familiar with Miss Qi than me now, and people only think about you when there are good things." ”

"Shaodong, it is estimated that Miss Qi doesn't know that you are back, if she knows that you are back, the things will definitely be given to you." Shopkeeper Hu sneered.

"Cook a few dishes in the evening, give me some of these wines, and I'll see if she can surprise me." Xiao Yunsheng arrogantly lit the wine jar with a fan.

"Miss Qi's family is still waiting below, do you want to prepare some return gifts." Shopkeeper Hu looked at his master cautiously.

"Go and reward him with some silver, and I'll send it myself tomorrow in return."

Shopkeeper Hu wiped his sweat and went down busily.

The next day, Xiao Yunsheng came to the door with a return gift, and Han Dong reported it and took him into the backyard.

"Xiao Gongzi, I haven't seen you for many days, and I'm getting more and more handsome." Qi Ning smiled and got up to greet him.

"I know you like black-faced men, and you don't look down on a handsome and elegant person like me." Xiao Yunsheng dusted off the white robe embroidered with red plum blossoms and wrinkled his nose: "Let's not talk about those, why didn't you give me a gift for Shopkeeper Hu?" ”

"I didn't know you were back, it wasn't much, so I wanted to save some." Qi Ning deliberately angered him, but she really didn't know that Xiao Yunsheng was back, because he was basically stationed in the capital since last year.

"I'm not here in person."

"Okay, Han Dong will prepare a copy and send it to Xiao Gongzi's car."

"You want to send me away? I want your way. Xiao Yunsheng handsomely shook off the fan.

"You know the recipe, last time the roast lamb leg beard shopkeeper didn't leave, and he forced the recipe to go, and I didn't dare to let you know if I had any good things in the future." Qi Ning poured him a cup of tea with a huff.

"You can make any offer." Xiao Yunsheng handsomely shook off the fan and looked at Qi Ning with an arrogant face.

"Priceless."

"Sister Ning, you just give me the recipe, you give me the recipe, and I'll tell you a secret."

"Keep your secret. I don't sell the fruit, and it's useless to give it to you now, and the fruit is almost gone. Qi Ning shook goosebumps all over her body.

"Don't worry about the fruit, I can go to the south to get it, you just need to tell me the recipe, I will build a winery, I don't need you to pay a penny, how about giving you 20% of the shares?"

"It's troublesome for me to divide it, the price is 1,000 taels, there are a lot of wild fruits in the mountains behind Zhujia Village and in the west of Zhujia Village, you hire someone from Zhujia Village to pick them for you, and if it's not enough, you can figure it out yourself." And I brew what I sell in my shop, but don't worry, I only sell it to people who come to eat. ”

Qi Ning slyly stretched out a white finger, once this fruit wine is on the market, it won't be long before insiders can figure it out, and it won't be able to sell it at a high price in the future.

"Deal."

"Wait, I'll go to the house and write it to you." Qi Ning went back to the house, and finished writing in less than a cup of tea.

"It's as simple as that?" Xiao Yunsheng looked at Fang Zi in disbelief.

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult. I don't care how you build a winery, you have already read the recipe, and the money cannot be missing mine. ”

In fact, only plum wine and wine are sealed and naturally fermented, and apricot wine and peach wine are made with high wine and sugar bubbles, and the method is really not complicated.

"If you get any other rare fruits, show them to me, and if you can make wine, I'll try to make them, and I'll teach you when I'm done."

"Money fans, where are the crabs?" Xiao Yun rolled his eyes angrily and asked.

"I won't charge you money for that, I'll sell it in my own store." Qi Ning took out another piece of paper from his sleeve.

"To be honest, I don't believe you're a village girl at all." Xiao Yunsheng's narrow fox eyes stared at Qi Ning deadly.

"If you don't believe it, you can't help it. It's hard for me to be a god and go down to earth. ”

"Hey! I'll go, and when the winery is built, I'll let the shopkeeper Hu tell you that you can send someone to take him to Zhujia Village to hire someone to pick fruits. Xiao Yunsheng took out two silver tickets worth five hundred taels and threw them on the table.

"Then you can hurry, there is less and less fruit in the mountains."

Xiao Yunsheng shook the fan in a chic manner, and walked away with a few fluttering pieces of paper in a complicated mood.
