Dressed as the best aunt in farming text

Chapter 121 Brewed Bayberry Wine
As soon as Xu Lingyue and Wu Shi sat down, the waiter served tea and water, as if treating them as guests.

After she took a sip of tea, she saw a white-haired, fairy-like old man walking in slowly behind the door.

Could this be Doctor Wu, Xu Lingyue couldn't help guessing.

Sure enough, the guy came forward to take the old man's medicine box, and then helped him into the room.

The clerk supported him, and then told Dr. Wu what happened just now: "Doctor Wu, a little girl came to sell ginseng just now, do you see?"

When he heard that he was here to sell ginseng, Dr. Wu was obviously a little excited, and quickly asked, "Is that person still there?"

"Yes, I will lead you there," said the man.

Then, the assistant led Dr. Wu towards Xu Lingyue.

Doctor Wu sized up Xu Lingyue with his cloudy eyes, and asked kindly, "Little girl, is it you who want to sell ginseng?"

Hearing this, Xu Lingyue nodded: "It's me, old man, what do you think?"

Then, she took out the ginseng and showed it to Doctor Wu.

Seeing that the ginseng was still stained with soil and looked very fresh, Dr. Wu was obviously a little surprised for a moment.

Looking at the appearance of this ginseng, it must have just been dug out of the soil not long ago, the sticky soil on it has not yet dried out, the quality of this ginseng is excellent, it is the best quality he has ever seen.

Dr. Wu took it and looked it over carefully. He stroked his white beard, shook his head, and said kindly after a long time, "It's about 500 years old."

Xu Lingyue and Wu were very excited when they heard that there was a 500-year vintage, although Wu couldn't understand.

You must know that there was already so much money in the 200-year-old one last time, how much money should be in the 500-year-old one, Xu Lingyue couldn't even think about it.

Then, Dr. Wu asked the staff to weigh it.

"The little old man doesn't cheat you, how about 800 taels a piece?"

"Okay, deal." After hearing the price, Xu Lingyue agreed without thinking.

And the Wu family who was next to her was stunned when she heard 800 taels. She gasped and dared not even think about it. 800 taels, she had never seen so much money in her life.

Paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, when they got 800 taels, they left without staying any longer.

After coming out, Mrs. Wu tugged at Xu Lingyue's sleeve, widened her eyes and asked, "Baby, isn't Auntie dreaming?"

Xu Lingyue finally calmed down one step faster than her, and said dumbfoundingly: "Mother, this is certainly not a dream."

"It's fine if it's not a dream, it's fine if it's not a dream."

Wu was afraid that this was a dream, and the 800 yuan he got flew away. After receiving Xu Lingyue's guarantee, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, they were going to buy liquor, which had to be bought at a wine shop.

"Shopkeeper, I don't know how to sell this liquor?"

"Three hundred Wen a catty."

After hearing the price, Xu Lingyue was a little shocked. As expected, this wine is indeed expensive.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's get twenty catties first." The main thing is that she didn't know how much she needed, so she said a whole number.

Twenty catties would cost six taels of silver.

The store owner was a little shocked to see that a little girl like her wanted to buy so much wine, but when the business came, he couldn't refuse it, so he packed it up for her.

Twenty catties of wine is still a bit heavy, but fortunately there are two of them, so Xu Lingyue asked the store to divide it into two, mainly for their convenience.

After paying, they left.

Originally Xu Lingyue wanted to go and see the carriage, but it was inconvenient to carry the wine, and she had a huge sum of money with her, so she was afraid of losing it, so she decided to go and see it next time.

When they went back, they still took the bullock cart.

After returning to Xu's house, it was about one o'clock after noon.

Xu Rou had already prepared a delicious meal. After Xu Lingyue took a few quick bites, she was ready to make bayberry wine.

After being exposed to the hot sun for so long, the earthen jar has already dried out. There is no need to wash the red bayberry, just put it in the jar, and then fill it with white wine. Of course, you can also add some sugar to it. It has a hint of sweetness. Since the bayberry is quite sour, Xu Lingyue put some sugar in it, sealed it up and stored it in a cool and ventilated place. It will be ready to drink in a few days.

Xiao Shu'er ran over at some point, looked at the jar and asked with some doubts: "Sister, what are you doing?"

Xu Lingyue explained softly: "My sister is brewing wine!"

"Wine? Shu'er wants to drink too." Xiao Shu'er thought it was some delicious food, although she said with some expectation.

Regarding this, Xu Lingyue couldn't laugh or cry.

She patiently explained: "Little Shu'er, you can't drink this wine. It's for adults. Children will become alcoholics if they drink it."

Xiao Shu'er only noticed the word ghost, and immediately took a step back in fear, shook her head vigorously, and said in horror: "I don't want to become a scary ghost."

Xu Lingyue couldn't help but laughed out loud, and continued following her words: "Pfft, it's just that Xiao Shu'er won't become a ghost if he doesn't drink."

"Little Shu'er will be good, don't drink, don't become a ghost." The little guy said with a serious expression.

Seeing that the little guy was so cute, Xu Lingyue handed her a red bayberry, and said softly: "Neng, Xiao Shuer eats this, but you have to spit out the core inside."

This is the first time Xiao Shu'er saw Yangmei. When she saw the red bayberry, she couldn't help swallowing, and quickly picked it up: "Thank you, sister."

Afterwards, she took a bite, but suddenly her expression changed drastically, and she said with a bitter face, "Sister, it's so sour."

Xu Lingyue couldn't hold back her laughter for a moment: "Hahaha."

Taking advantage of her not paying attention, the little guy stuffed a bayberry into Xu Lingyue's mouth, a cunning flashed in his eyes, and he smiled mischievously, as if he was "revenging" the other party for feeding her a sour bayberry.

After realizing it, Xu Lingyue took a bite, but to her surprise, the red bayberry turned out to be very sweet, but she pretended to be unpalatable, her face gradually became distorted, and she said with some disgust: "It's so sour! .”

"Hahaha." Hearing this, Xiao Shu'er laughed out loud immediately, as if the "revenge" had succeeded.

Regarding this, Xu Lingyue said that she couldn't laugh or cry, this little guy is really naughty.

Then she moved the bayberry wine to a cool and ventilated place, and put it together with the previous wine.

Counting the time, the wine will be ready to drink soon, Xu Lingyue faintly looks forward to it.

After doing all this, she took out the wild pepper that she brought down from the mountain. She took out one specially and took out all the seeds, and put it in the sun to dry. After all, she couldn't guarantee whether she would meet again in the future. , I was lucky this time, so it is better to save some seeds first. Fortunately, the seeds are already ripe, and there are still quite a lot of wild pepper seeds.
