Ex-wife strategy: Mr. Gu dotes on me to the core

Chapter 94 Winemaking
There are more than a dozen varieties of grapes here, basically all the grape varieties that can be seen on the market.

Moreover, Ye Xihe discovered that although they were all grape vines, their appearance was still different, and different grape vines produced different grapes.

The most distinctive one is the mountain thorn grape.

The thorns on this vine are exceptionally long, and the vines are very thin, but the branches they grow can cover a wide area.

In the orchard contracted by Gu Yanxi, there is a 130-year-old mountain thorn grape tree.

However, the grapes on this tree are basically auctioned.

The annual output can reach 5000 kilograms.

Basically it is sold by well-known wineries and used to make Alpine Thorn wine.

Other sunshine roses, jasmine and gold fingers are sold in cities.

It’s still that famous fruit brand.

They also take the high-end route.

Just a few bunches of grapes filled the basket Ye Xihe brought up.

She is not greedy for too many grapes and only picks one big bunch of each grape.

This thing tastes delicious, but it is not durable for transportation or storage.

Basically, the vines will dry up in two or three days, and then the grapes will smell like fermentation.

Sweet and sour with a hint of wine.

Ye Xihe really liked drinking wine. She originally thought about going back and trying to make wine.

However, I heard that if raw sake is not distilled, it will contain many harmful bacteria, and you may get sick if you eat it.

The milder symptom may be diarrhea, while the more serious symptom may be bacterial infection and then be admitted to the hospital ICU.

Two people returned home with two baskets of fruit.

On the road, the weight of the motorcycle increased, and Ye Xihe could clearly feel that Gu Yanxi's riding speed became slower.

Because it was all going downhill, I almost had to tighten the front and rear brakes on the motorcycle.

This is how basic vehicle balance can be maintained.

Ye Xihe asked to come down and walk on several steep downhill sections.

But Gu Yanxi was unwilling to let her walk, so the two of them just held the brakes and slid slowly.

At this moment, Ye Xihe deeply realized what it means to go uphill but hard to go downhill.

"came back!"

Mother-in-law Zhang Xiaoling was extremely happy when she saw the two people coming back on their motorcycles.

"Mom, the fruits above are really good, and each one is of high quality."

"But these fruits are all sold in the city. Those people are very naughty when it comes to eating. The main reason is that we, Yan Xi, run the technology company very well, and the agricultural products on the farm are also very well managed."

Mother-in-law Zhang Xiaoling usually doesn't praise Gu Yanxi casually. Today she praised him so freely. It seems that Gu Yanxi is really talented at work.

"With these grapes and plums, let's go home and make some fruit bars."

"Can you make wine?"

Mother-in-law Zhang Xiaoling's words touched Ye Xihe's heart.

This was exactly what she wanted to do, but she didn't have the skills to make wine.

"I know how to do it. When we were educated youth in the countryside, we learned wine-making techniques from them. However, now that many years have passed, I can only say that it is okay to make wine for my family to try."

"Mom, you are really great! Let's go make some wine when we get home!"

Ye Xihe really couldn't see that a fashionable person like her mother-in-law could actually master the art of hand-brewing!
I used to go to the countryside to be an educated youth!
"Okay, let's give it a try when we go back today. We still have all the tools at home."

"Mom, Xiaohe, I have a winery on my farm. If you like it, let's take some back today."

"Then go and help us arrange some bottles of good wine. Let's take them back today and taste them."

Zhang Xiaoling said to her son, her tone and expression seemed to be saying: "Why are you so blind, do you still want us to talk about this kind of thing?"

Gu Yanxi went to look for good wine. Now is the busy farming season. Everyone is busy in the fields and has no time to talk to Gu Yanxi.

Ye Xihe was discussing the wine-making process with his mother-in-law Zhang Xiaoling.

Today, she vowed to learn this skill.

Half an hour later, Gu Yanxi came back on his motorcycle. In addition to a box of good wine, there were also two boxes of fish, shrimp and crabs with him.

There are only a few fish, and there are more crabs and prawns.

Zhang Xiaoling looked at the things her son brought back and felt very good. She was a good shopkeeper, and what Gu Yanxi picked up were all good wines.

"When I go home in the evening, my mother will show off her skills to you. It just so happens that the fish, shrimps and crabs are paired with fine wine and a grape and plum fruit plate. It's perfect."

Gu Yanxi was so happy when she heard that her mother was going to show off her skills.

Zhang Xiaoling usually doesn't cook easily, but her cooking skills are really comparable to those of five-star chefs.

If Gu Yanxi wants to eat the food cooked by her mother now, except during the New Year, she has to rely on Ye Xihe at other times.

The family drove back to the Gu family's old home.

After all this tossing, the two little ones had already run out of energy. After they returned home, they almost fell asleep on the bed.

The child was left to the nanny. Of course, Ye Xihe's room was under surveillance. You could check on the child at any time.

After the fish was processed, it was put into the freezer. Today I mainly ate shrimps and crabs.

Simple steaming and boiling cannot reflect the cooking skills of my mother-in-law Zhang Xiaoling.

Must have peony prawns, crab roe noodles and a series of other dishes.

Gu Yanxi was responsible for handling the crabs and shrimps, Ye Xihe was responsible for washing the fruits and arranging the fruit plate shapes, and Zhang Xiaoling was responsible for cooking and directing.

A meal comes together quickly.

Slowly spread across the table, very delicate.

Ye Xihe finally learned a lesson.

She plans to learn to do it herself when she returns home next time.

Of course, she doesn't expect to fully learn the essence, but as long as there are two or three likenesses, it will be enough.

After finishing the simple dinner, it was time for the part that Ye Xihe was most looking forward to.

Gu Yanxi took the initiative to work as a coolie and helped wash the grapes without calling him.

However, this time they didn't do much.

Mainly made from Alpine thorn grapes.

This was also a box of mountain grapes that Gu Yanxi silently carried back from the farm when she knew she wanted to make wine.

"Xiaohe, look, this wine jar needs to be free of water and oil. We must pay attention when cleaning it."

Ye Xihe listened very carefully and even took out a small notebook to record.

"Mom, why do these grapes need to be crushed?"

“In this way, fermentation can be fully carried out, and the wine that comes out will be more fragrant and delicate.”

"That's it."

This is a key knowledge point. Ye Xihe must make key marks in his notebook.

"We also put a specific proportion of yellow rock sugar in the grapes to make them more delicious."

This is also the key point. Ye Xihe took a small notebook and marked the key points.

Gu Yanxi also listened carefully.
