Chapter 82: Ruo'er Can Make Wine
"It's plum wine, it's made by my eldest sister herself, I'm just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." Wei Jin also explained.
Everyone looked at Wei Ruo in surprise, and Wei Ruo looked at the dishes in front of him calmly.
The second brother had asked her for advice before doing this.
She originally didn't plan to offer this courtesy to Wei Mingting, but the jar of wine had already been opened last time, and she ran away without drinking it for a long time.
And the jar of wine is almost full, last time because the second brother was drunk, he drank less than two glasses and put it aside, plus Wei Ruo himself is not keen on wine, he will not drink it if he has nothing to do on weekdays, and it will be wasted if he puts it away.
The second brother said that his father loves wine and is not addicted to alcohol, and giving his father a taste can be regarded as making the best use of things.
In addition, the second brother mentioned it to her, and she couldn't refute the second brother's intentions, so she didn't say anything.
"If you can make wine?" Wei Mingting's gaze fell on Wei Ruo's body.
"Some, whatever you want." Wei Ruo replied casually.
"Then the father should have a good taste." Wei Mingting said.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the big stone of the Japanese Kou temporarily fell, and Wei Mingting's wine worm also came out.
Hearing this, the Yun family hurriedly asked people to pour a glass for Wei Mingting, and then poured wine for several other people present except for Wei Yilin, who was still young.
Drinking is a matter of grace, so on such a celebratory occasion, the Yun family allows the older children to drink alcohol.
Wei Mingting tasted it first, and then a surprised expression appeared on his face: "Ruo'er, this wine is really made by you?" ”
"Hmm." Wei Ruo replied nonchalantly.
"It's a really good wine, sweet and elegant, with a rich aroma and fruity aromas." Wei Mingting commented.
Hearing Wei Mingting's comment, Yun and Wei Yichen also took a sip.
The two of them also showed a look of surprise.
"Ruo'er's wine is so good that it is even more pure and sweet than the restaurants in the county." Wei Yichen commented.
The pure and sweet is probably because Wei Ruo has purified it by the distillation method, so the wine is fragrant and pure, as transparent as water.
And many wines in this era, especially some small workshops, have rough brewing technology, and the wine that comes out is relatively turbid.
Yun couldn't help but praise: "Ruo'er's hand is so skillful, it's the first time I've drunk such a non-fierce but mellow wine." ”
Listening to everyone's praise of Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan glanced down at the wine glass in front of her, and then took a tentative sip.
She doesn't drink much, and she doesn't usually have too many opportunities for her to drink, so she doesn't know as much about wine as her parents and brothers.
But Wei Qingwan could feel that this wine was indeed not bad, and the sweet and refreshing taste could be tasted, and she suddenly felt a bad taste in her heart.
She raised her head to look at Wei Ruo, still with a smile on her face, and praised the others together: "Sister is really amazing, it seems that nothing is difficult for my sister, compared to my sister, I am really useless." ”
"How can Wanwan be useless, Wanwan has something Wanwan is good at." Yun said busily.
"That's it, sister, making wine is not everyone's beautiful thing, isn't that what those sweaty brewing masters in the small workshop outside should do?" Wei Yilin said busily.
"Yilin, what are you talking about?" Wei Mingting's expression was serious.
Wei Yilin was very afraid of Wei Mingting, Wei Mingting's expression was serious, he immediately lowered his head, and did not dare to squeak.
On weekdays, when Wei Mingting was not there, he would sometimes say a few words to secretly slander Wei Ruo like today, and no one in the family was angry, so he was used to it.
"If it's unintentional, if you deliberately slander and disrespect your big sister, you don't have to eat this meal today, go and stand in the yard!" Wei Mingting said coldly.
Hearing this, the Yun family hurriedly helped the youngest son intercede: "Yilin should be an unintentional mistake, don't be angry." ”
Wei Yilin lowered his head and nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Wei Mingting did not continue to investigate.
Wei Yichen explained to Wei Yilin on the side: "Yilin, the craft of winemaking is not as crude and shallow as you think, a good winemaking recipe is usually a secret recipe passed down from generation to generation by a family, and there is an imperial winery in the palace, and the winemaker in it has an official position." ”
"Got it......" Wei Yilin replied in a low voice.
In fact, he also knew what the eldest brother said, he just said that just now he didn't want Sister Wanwan to be compared to Wei Qingruo.
The rest of Wei Jin just pretended to take a sip, but in fact he didn't drink half a drop in his mouth, Wei Ruo saw it, and knew that after the lesson of the last time, he would never touch the wine easily, even if it was this kind of non-strong fruit wine.
When the meal was used up, a jar of wine also bottomed out, most of which Wei Mingting drank, and the rest of the people just took a few sips.
As far as Wei Mingting's amount of wine is concerned, this fruit wine is not a jar, even if he has seven or eight jars, he can't get drunk.
He loves wine, but when he is on official business, he resolutely does not drink a drop of alcohol, and now he has won a big victory, celebrating at home, which is a very rare drinking opportunity in the past few years, and he has a jar of good wine, and he drinks extremely freely.
At the end of the show, Wei Mingting unexpectedly took the initiative to ask Wei Ruo for a drink: "If Ruo'er brews wine again next time, give it to my father, okay?" ”
Wei Ruo didn't refuse well, so he said, "Okay, I'll be in a hurry for my father's share next time." ”
I don't know when it will be brewed again next time, and the wine that has just been brewed can't be drunk immediately, and it will have to be left for a long time, so Wei Mingting wants to drink the wine she brewed next time I don't know when I have to wait.
As for the jars that were still stored in her warehouse, Wei Mingting only said that it was the next time she brewed them, but he didn't say that those that were already there, so naturally they didn't need to be taken out.
Wei Mingting said: "Okay, then the father will wait for Ruo'er's next wine." ”
After the banquet was dismissed, everyone left the dining room one after another, and as soon as Wei Ruo walked out of the door of the dining room, Wei Qingwan walked towards her.
Wei Qingwan took the initiative to talk to Wei Ruo and gave her a purse embroidered by herself:
"Sister, I embroidered this purse and gave it to my sister. I'm not as capable as my sister, I can only embroider some embroidery, I hope my sister won't dislike it. ”
Wei Ruo turned his head to look at Wei Qingwan and didn't reach out to pick it up.
Seeing that Wei Ruo did not move, Wei Qingwan explained: "My sister has taken the words she taught on the day of the Qiaoqiao Festival to my heart, but I can't think of any good way to express my sincerity with my sister for a while, so I embroidered a purse to express my heart first. ”
Wei Ruo's eyes looked at Wei Qingwan sharply, Wei Qingwan didn't know if it was a weak heart or something else, she lowered her head and avoided making eye contact with Wei Ruo.
"Okay, then I'll take it." Wei Ruo suddenly reached out and took the purse.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo saw Wei Yichen coming out of the dining room, and gave him the purse.
"Ruo'er, what is this?" Wei Yichen looked at Wei Ruo suspiciously.
