The pleasantries between Mu Qiyue and Du Bin were quickly put aside by Lin Zhu, because Mr. Du's achievements were more worthy of her attention.
"Girl Zhu, the first batch of wine will be out tomorrow." Mr. Du had a mixture of exhaustion and excitement on his face.
"Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa Du." Lin Zhu bowed to Mr. Du sincerely. The old man was already quite old, and he still had to work so hard. Lin Zhu felt very guilty.
"Hey, it's not hard work." Mr. Du waved his hand, with a happy smile on his face. "When the wine comes out this time, how can old man Zhang ask me for help?" Mr. Du laughed proudly.
After hearing this, Lin Zhu's eyes lit up. Could it be that the wine was successful? She was very excited. Although she was very confident in the special rice, Lin Zhu still didn't know much about wine making.
"The wine will be out almost tomorrow." Looking at Lin Zhu's eager eyes, Mr. Du said directly without showing off.
"That's great, Grandpa Du." Lin Zhu was so happy that he almost jumped up.
“However, since this is the first time I have used this kind of rice to make wine, the process is the same as before, so I don’t know how the wine will taste. The raw materials are different, so I may not be used to it if I have brewed it before.
Mr. Du said conservatively.
"When this kind of rice is made into rice, the heat is the same as that of ordinary white rice. It is probably similar when it is made into wine." Lin Zhu had not thought about this problem.
"Well, I think it's about the same." Du Bin interjected from the side.
"Everything has been prepared step by step. We will know the result tomorrow. There is nothing we can do now anyway. Let's wait and see." Mu Qiyue was not as worried as the Du family's grandson. He was worried about Lin Zhu's production.
There is a very firm confidence in the specialty rice.
"Huh." Lin Zhu took a long breath, as if he was letting out the tension in his heart, "Grandpa Du, I will go to the bar with you tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go together." Mr. Du was also very excited about the exciting moment of drinking, and happily agreed, "Mu, Fourth, come with us." By the way, he brought Mu Qiyue with him.
Mu Qiyue was also very interested. When he heard Mr. Du's invitation, he agreed without any hesitation.
"Sister, I'll go too, okay?" Fu Dou'er, who came back from seeing the pony, thought there was something fun and wanted to come along.
"Okay. The little fat guy will go too." Mr. Du was so happy that he called Fu Dou'er the name he disliked the most.
As expected, Fu Dou'er puffed up his cheeks again, but because Lin Zhu told him to respect the elderly, he did not refute Mr. Du's words out loud, but pursed his lips unhappily. He secretly became sulky, and decided to
Eat less meat and lose weight.
But his determination fell apart within a day. Because the dinner was so delicious, he accidentally ate a lot of meat.
On the second day, everyone stood nervously outside the door of the winery, waiting for Mr. Du to say yes before they could enter the winery.
After finding someone to do some of the rough work in the winery, Mr. Du and Du Bin will do some of the finer work. This is also because the method of making wine is a secret that is not passed down to the Du family.
The direct descendants of the Du family cannot be obtained by others.
Mr. Du cautiously opened the door of the wine shop. Others standing outside the door smelled a slight smell of alcohol, which floated faintly from inside towards the door.
Lin Zhu wrinkled her nose when she smelled the smell. She found that the smell of alcohol had no special smell. It was no different from the smell of alcohol from ordinary drinks.
This discovery made her feel a little bad. She looked at the other people around her, but they all looked very normal. Could it be that her sense of smell was not sensitive?
Lin Zhu followed Mr. Du into the wine shop without saying a word. The further inside, the smell of the wine became stronger and the taste became stronger.
When you open the innermost door, the smell of the wine really comes out.
"Sister, what does this smell like? It smells good." It was the first time Fu Douer came into contact with wine, so she was very curious.
"This is the smell of wine." Mu Qiyue, who was standing behind them, replied on behalf of Lin Zhu, because he saw that Lin Zhu's little face was already a little red.
It seemed that the wine hadn't been drunk yet, but just the smell of alcohol made Lin Zhu a little tipsy. His eyes were slightly squinted. Judging from Mu Qiyue's experience, Lin Zhu could still stand upright, so he must be.
Willpower is strong.
So he put his hand on Lin Zhu's arm to prevent her from becoming unstable and falling.
She hasn't seen her like this before she drinks wine, so what will happen to her when she actually drinks wine? Mu Qiyue imagined Lin Zhu's appearance in a funny way when she was drunk.
Mr. Du and Du Bin who were walking in front did not notice anything strange about Lin Zhu, so they walked to the brewing place and started to prepare the wine.
Mu Qiyue paid attention to Lin Zhu while pulling Fu Dou'er.
With a bang, the lid was opened. A strong aroma of wine came to his nostrils. Lin Zhu was unprepared and was knocked unconscious by the oncoming alcohol smell.
Mu Qiyue looked at Lin Zhu, who was lying softly next to him. His face was rosy, his nose was twitching slightly, and his breathing was light. He smiled speechlessly. Just the smell of alcohol outside made her drunk.
Yes, it seems that her drinking capacity is really too small.
"Fourth uncle, what's wrong with sister?" Fu Dou'er asked curiously, looking at Lin Zhu who seemed to be sleeping.
"Your sister is drunk." Mu Qiyue whispered. "This place is full of alcohol. Your sister smelled it and got drunk."
"Hehe, sister is so useless. I'm fine." Fu Dou'er proudly puffed up her chest and inhaled the smell of alcohol in the room with her nose, saying that she was not affected at all. And she was still
He looked intoxicated.
The clear wine flowed out along the bamboo tube, and all flowed into the jar placed under the mouth of the tube.
In order to preserve the wine to the greatest extent possible, Mu Qiyue also specially built a batch of exclusive wine jars. Not only did they have Lin Zhu's mark and bamboo mark on them, they also had several bamboo leaves engraved on them.
Once such a wine jar is sold, Zhuji's name will also be brought out, which can be regarded as a kind of advertisement, so Lin Zhu did not complain about Mu Qiyue spending an extra sum of money at that time.
In order to see the quality of the wine, Mr. Du and Du Bin did not put out all the wine. Instead, they filled a jar first and then stopped.
When Du Bin came over with the wine jar, he looked at Lin Zhu in Mu Qiyue's arms and his eyes flashed.
"Haha, Mr. Du's wine was so good that Miss Lin got drunk just by smelling the alcohol." Mu Qiyue explained preemptively in order not to be misunderstood.
"Well, I'm fine." Fu Dou'er also nodded, confirming that Mu Qiyue's words were correct.
"Then let's go out. I think we'll wake up if we go outside." Mr. Du smiled. He also saw that Mu Qiyue did not intend to take advantage of Lin Zhu. After all, servants are not allowed to come in here. So Minglu did not
Follow.
Because Lin Zhu was drunk and unconscious, Mu Qiyue, who was supporting her, could not walk easily, so he had to pick her up. He asked Fu Dou'er to hold her clothes and follow Mr. Du out of the wine shop.
's door.
When they walked outside, Minglu was waiting. Seeing that her girl was being carried out, her eyes widened and she forgot to react for a moment.
When Mu Feng saw his master coming out with Lin Zhu in his arms, he was dumbfounded, thinking that his master's movements were too fast.
"Miss Minglu, Miss Lin is drunk inside, send her to the room to have a good rest." Mu Qiyue first glared at Mu Feng, and then said to Minglu who was at a loss.
"Oh, okay. Please Fourth Master, please put down my girl." Only then did Minglu remember the most important thing, Lin Zhu was still in her arms.
"She's not awake yet. You can't walk even if you hold her up. It's better for me to take her back to the house." After saying that, he ignored Minglu's still somewhat disapproving expression and walked straight towards Lin Zhu's house.
By the way, there were many servants in Mu Qiyue's village along the way. Everyone who saw Mu Qiyue's image was so frightened that their jaws dropped and their mouths opened wide.
Mu Qiyue had no expression on his face, but his ears turned red. He secretly hated these servants for making such a fuss, and must give them a good lesson in the future.
The servants in Mu Qiyue's village felt an inexplicable chill on their backs. Everyone who noticed Mu Qiyue's unkind eyes quickly turned away, fearing that he would become angry.
Finally, Mu Qiyue was brought to the house by Lin Zhu and put on the bed. Just as he was about to cover her with a quilt, Minglu rushed up like a little hen protecting her calf and snatched the hand from Mu Qiyue.
Quilt said, "Fourth Master, these little things should be done by your slave." Although his tone was humble, his eyes were very unkind, clearly showing his dissatisfaction with Mu Qiyue's actions.
Mu Qiyue knew that what he had done just now could be regarded as destroying Lin Zhu's reputation as a good friend, so he relaxed his grip on the quilt a little unreasonably.
Under Minglu's guarded eyes, he walked out of the room. Before leaving, he told Minglu to come to him directly if anything happened.
After Mu Qiyue left, Minglu sighed in fear and looked at Lin Zhu, who was sleeping soundly, with some embarrassment. She was a little worried and didn't know how to tell Lin Zhu or other people in the family what had just happened.
.
Knowing that Lin Zhu was drunk because of the smell of alcohol, Ming Lu poured some hot water and wiped Lin Zhu down, hoping to make her feel better.
Mu Qiyue returned to the front hall, where Mr. Du and Du Bin were waiting for him. However, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Mr. Du's displeased face, and Du Bin's somewhat accusatory eyes, a little proud and a little embarrassed.
He touched his face.
"Well, Lin Zhu fell asleep. I wonder if I should wait for her to wake up before tasting this wine." Mu Qiyue said in order to break the awkward atmosphere.
Mr. Du rolled his eyes at him, thinking that you should still say it.
Please forgive the helplessness of the older young woman. Yesterday she went back to her parents for a failed kiss. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest support.
