husband and wife

Chapter 57

A few days ago, the camellia oil was really sold at a low price. In previous years, it could be sold for at least seven or eight pennies. Now that it is so much less, Song's mother is so angry that her heart hurts. These days, the Song family is gloomy, until they heard that the town When recruiting workers, the rich man who returned to his hometown from Hangzhou mainly built a large house and ancestral hall, and it was stipulated that the construction must be completed within two months. Such a large project must recruit more people. At the beginning, only men were recruited, and later even women were recruited. The salary is half that of men, but it is also better than finding other jobs to earn money.The entire Song family went out to earn money, and the depressive atmosphere of the previous few days dissipated.

Therefore, as soon as Su Wan mentioned tea oil, Song Xiaomei gritted her teeth and decided to have sex with her. She thought in her heart that if she could really earn money, her parents would not have to work so hard to help others. With her father's craftsmanship, she would do some carpentry at home Can also make some money.

Su Wan said: "Little girl, go and boil a large pot of water. After the water boils, throw the pottery urn, lid, find a stick and a pair of chopsticks into the pot and boil for half a minute. I will use it later. I will call Dawa Erwa carried a ladder to pick grapes."

Song Xiaomei didn't ask much, she nodded and said, "Okay!" Turning around, she went into the room and brought out a big pottery urn.

Su Wan directed Dawa and Erwa to go up the ladder to pick grapes. The picked grapes were only soaked in water, and they were taken out to dry in a clean basket beside them. The pottery urn was brought out, Su Wan called the older ones to go to the kitchen with her to wash their hands with hot water, and wipe off the water droplets on their hands, and then crushed the dried grapes and put them into the pottery urn. Hurry up, it was done in a quarter of an hour, Su Wan asked Song Xiaomei to take a catty of sugar and pour it in, and sealed it with a lid, the eldest and second children hugged the pottery urn tightly into Su Wan's house, and Su Wan gave one penny to each of them For the hush money, the eldest child and the second child took the chessboard and went to play backgammon under the shade of the tree. The eldest girl and the second girl went back to the house and continued to do needlework. Grandma Song also knew about this, she just glanced at the two sisters and shook her head and smiled: "Follow you Third Aunt did her best."

Er Niu smiled and said: "Since Third Aunt came here, it's more fun than before, and I can often eat snacks!"

Grandma Song laughed and scolded: "Let's have fun now, and when you go out, see who will take you to play all day long."

Song Xiaomei didn't leave immediately in Su Wan's room, "By the way, I haven't asked my sister-in-law why she made grapes like this? How long can they be used?"

"It's the same as brewing wine. It will be ready in half a month."

"Wine making?" Song Xiaomei's eyes widened. "I never heard that grapes can also make wine. Besides, there is no wine koji. How can this be done?"

"We'll see if it's ready in half a month. If it can be brewed, it's suitable for men, women and children. If parents don't like to drink rice wine, this wine is sweet and delicious, and its stamina is not small. Women have a small sip every night before going to bed. , beautifying and beautifying the skin, it is much more useful than that rouge gouache, so why worry about no one buying it?"

Song Xiaomei nodded again and again, and suddenly realized: "No wonder you always stared at the wine shop opened by Mrs. Liu's son when you went to town last time. So you have planned it for a long time."

Su Wan was indeed reminded by the wine shop that she remembered that she could brew some different wine, but she knew: "At that time, I just had an idea, but I didn't think about making money."

"But I've never heard of wine, how do you know how to brew it, third sister-in-law?"

"When I was in my natal family, I read a book that said this wine was invented by overseas people. When we come here, I am afraid that only high-ranking officials can drink it. I have long wanted to make it. I have thought about it for a long time. Since it is wine, let’s follow the method of wine making. To make wine, glutinous rice needs to be steamed, but how can grapes be steamed in a pot? Yes, it may not be available overseas, so I’ll try it without the koji.”

Song Xiaomei nodded endlessly, "It sounds like this to me, but my sister-in-law is smart enough to figure it out on her own."

"Do you still remember the last time I asked you to fry hibiscus flowers? I didn't eat them before. I just heard your brother read a poem and thought about it. I thought about it, he must be born smart." Su Wan said boldly.

Song Xiaomei chuckled, "I think the third sister-in-law is probably born to love food more than others, so she can always figure out something different." Although it hurts others, the worries in her heart are much less. The first time I saw hibiscus flowers, and after hearing what my third brother said, I decided to pick them and eat them on a whim. It was really crispy and delicious when fried according to her method, and I couldn't forget it even myself.Now this wine was made by the third sister-in-law after pondering for a long time, so she can't go wrong.

Su Wan just smiled without saying a word, saying that she was [-]% to [-]% sure, but it was just an excuse, she knew it would be successful, although she had never made wine by herself, but she had a girlfriend who was a DIY fanatic, wine, apple cider vinegar, mulberry wine, enzymes, etc. , Which one is not easy to grasp?When she first came out to play tricks, she was so poor that she lived in a best friend's house for a whole year, almost seeing her busy from spring to winter, but if she could make things by herself, she couldn't go out to buy them, in fact, they were more than just food. Those facial masks and facial cleansers Soap and the like are also made by myself. Su Wan sees them a lot, and occasionally she has to help, so naturally she will. If it weren't for the crowd, she would like to tinker with some skin care products and cosmetics by herself.
