Chapter 42: A Family
Yun Niang was stunned when she saw Yunxiao returning with a full load, she really couldn't believe her eyes, until Yunxiao resisted a large number of prey and put it in the backyard, she came back to her senses.
"Xiaoyun, this is all the prey you hit?"
"Yes, lady, this wolf should be able to sell for a good price if it is skinned!"
Yun Niang watched Yunxiao skillfully peel off the wolf's skin, and then began to believe that Yunxiao could hunt and was a very good hunter. The roe deer skins and reindeer skins are also very valuable, and Yunxiao packed them all up without delaying lunch.
At lunchtime, not only Yun Niang looked at the clouds differently, but even Ling'er also looked at the clouds with her eyes. Yesterday, when Yun Niang told her daughter her thoughts, Ling'er began to pay special attention to the clouds.
Facing Yunxiao, who has good cooking skills, can hunt, can read and hyphenate and looks very handsome and chic, Ling'er's heart began to attach to Yunxiao's body.
After lunch, Yunxiao took a hoe and planned to reclaim the wasteland behind the inn, when a middle-aged man dressed as a merchant walked into the inn.
"Little brother, is Yun Niang here?"
"Here, wait a minute!"
Yunxiao came to the kitchen and told the proprietress that a merchant had come, and the proprietress hurriedly said to Yunxiao: "Xiaoyun, go and bring those three animal skins, we can exchange money to buy some necessary things!"
When Yunxiao came to the inn hall with wolf skin and deer skin, the proprietress was talking to the merchant, and when she saw Xiaoyun coming out with the animal skin, she hurriedly said to Yunxiao:
"Xiaoyun, this is Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu knows that it is inconvenient for our inn to go to the city to buy things, and he always comes to give us things!"
After some understanding, Yunxiao knew that Uncle Xu was not a real merchant, only because he had a good relationship with Yun Niang's deceased husband, so he deliberately took care of this lonely mother and son.
"Uncle Xu, hello, my name is Yunxiao, how much do you think these animal skins are worth?"
The hides obtained by hunting in the sky are very intact, and the whole hides are not badly damaged, and the damage is on the neck and head, so the value of the hides is much higher than that of the hides hunted by other hunters.
"Yes, you hunted all these hides?"
"Yes, Uncle Xu!"
Uncle Xu looked at Yun Niang and nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Yes, look at your archery skills should be very good, these animal skins have not hurt the main parts, although Uncle Xu's shop does not deal in animal skins, but several of my old friends who do leather business urgently need these animal skins, wolf skins should be worth ten taels of silver, large deer skins twenty taels, small ten taels, a total of forty taels!"
Yun Niang was very happy when she heard that three pieces of animal skins could be sold for forty taels, Yunxiao looked at Uncle Xu, and said very politely to Uncle Xu:
"Uncle Xu, does your shop sell grain for brewing, I want to buy some!"
"Yes, Xiaoyun, do you still know how to make wine?"
"Well, my family is an ancestral winemaker!"
Later that day, all kinds of items needed for the inn, as well as the food that Yunxiao needed to make wine, Uncle Xu sent someone to deliver them. The proprietress Yunniang was very satisfied with Yunxiao's performance throughout the day, especially when Yunxiao reclaimed a large piece of wasteland, so that if she went on, she could grow vegetables and grain, plus the fish and game in the river, which was enough for the inn to maintain its needs.
In the evening, the proprietress saw Yunxiao bring tools from the utility room and began to repair the damaged tables, chairs and benches, she was a little distressed, and hurriedly dissuaded Yunxiao and said:
"Xiaoyun, take a break, see you're tired!"
"Hostess, I'm not tired!"
The clouds tinkled, and it didn't take long for him to clean up the broken house, and then he carefully inspected the inn inside and out.
"Boss, some parts of our inn need to be repaired, and I will take the time to repair our inn from tomorrow!"
Yun Niang looked at Yunxiao in surprise, she didn't expect this young man who looked like he was in his early twenties to do anything, in the next few days, the Li Family Inn had a new look, and the food made by Yunxiao was very delicious, and a big boss of Andong City who was passing by actually made a special trip to the Li Family Inn to eat the next day.
"Brother Yun, is this the wine you brewed, it's so fragrant?"
Yunxiao had just poured the steamed wine into the wine jar, Ling'er sniffed and appeared, Ling'er took a small glass of wine handed over by Yunxiao, slowly tasted a small sip, and felt sweet and delicious, and the color of the wine was not slightly cloudy like rice wine, not only clear but also amber.
"Brother Yun, what kind of wine is this, it's delicious?"
"This is honey wine, don't drink too much at once, otherwise you will get drunk, and you will be even more drunk than ordinary honey wine!"
Ling'er drank the honey wine in the wine glass, and jumped up and down to deliver the honey wine to the inn counter:
"Mother, try it, Brother Yun's wine is delicious!"
Yun Niang looked at her daughter with red cheeks, and said with a smile: "Okay, mother, taste it!"
Yun Niang took a small wine glass, scooped some honey wine from the wine jar, tasted it, and was stunned. Although she is not a connoisseur of drinking, she has been running an inn for more than ten years, and she can still distinguish the quality of various drinks, and she has never drunk such a good wine.
"Ling'er, did Xiaoyun say what kind of wine this is?"
"Brother Yun, say this is called honey wine!"
When Yun Niang's mother and daughter were chatting, a dart master who happened to be resting for lunch in the inn suddenly sniffed and walked over:
"Boss, do you have any good wine to buy here? I remember the boss, your drinks here are very ordinary, what kind of wine is this, so fragrant?"
"At this time, our inn's own mead!"
"Mead?"
When the dart master heard that it was honey wine, he smelled the wine, and the wine worm in his stomach made a fuss:
"Boss, bring us a jar!"
As soon as the dart master's words landed, Yunxiao happened to come to the counter with a jar of honey wine, and hurriedly sent it to the dart master's table.
"Old Song, the wine in this inn is not as good as the one we brought, how can you buy wine here?"
A middle-aged dart master asked his companion strangely, and the old Song Hehe Yile said:
"Old Song, I have been drinking wine for so many years, and I have never smelled such fragrant wine, it must be good wine, you wait and see!"
After Lao Song put the honey wine on the table in Yunxiao, he immediately filled a large bowl for each of the dart masters present, and as the honey wine poured out of the wine jar, a strong aroma of wine suddenly spread throughout the entire inn.
"What kind of wine is this, so fragrant?"
The other two tables of resting guests also asked for wine to drink, Ling'er hurriedly brought two pots of wine over, and after the guests drank it, they were full of praise. Especially Lao Song and his entourage, when they went out, they bought three jars of honey wine and took them to drink on the road. (To be continued.) )
