Dressed as the best aunt in farming text

Chapter 130 Tasting Wine

Everyone rested for a while under the big tree next to them while drinking herbal tea.

At this moment, old man Xu raised his head and glanced at the sky, then came over and told Xu Lingyue, "Ah Yue, it's almost noon now, hurry back and let your aunt and sister-in-law prepare lunch."

Xu Lingyue responded with a smile: "OK, I'll go back right away."

"Hey"

Old man Xu was very pleased with his daughter's sensibleness at this time, showing a satisfied smile.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Uncle Meng, who was resting under the shade of a tree, showed a kind smile on his face, and called out to her, "Yue girl, are you leaving now?"

Hearing this, Xu Lingyue replied with a smile, "Yes, Uncle Meng."

The herbal tea was not finished yet, she took a look at it, there was about a third of it left, so the mung bean soup will be delivered in the afternoon.

Then, she went back with Xu Pingbu.

After returning, Xu Pingbu went to the town in a carriage. He didn't even have time to eat. The main reason was that the town would be short of manpower and the business would be delayed. After all, the Xu family's small shop is now the only source of income for their Xu family. Xu Pingbu was a little nervous.

However, when she came back, Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Wu were already preparing lunch.

Mrs. Zhu was overjoyed when she saw her, and hurried up to greet her and asked a little embarrassedly: "Little sister, can you teach my sister-in-law about the hot and sour potato shreds you made last time? It happens to be made at noon, and it will be served as a snack for everyone."

Hearing that the other party wanted to learn hot and sour potato shreds, Xu Lingyue readily agreed: "No problem."

It's just that there are not many chili peppers left, and she is still a little bit reluctant.

Seeing that she agreed, Mrs. Zhu was so happy.

At this moment, Mrs. Wu came over and told her, "Baby, go pick some green beans from the vegetable garden."

Normally, Mrs. Wu would not order Xu Lingyue to do things, but today she was short of manpower, so he had no choice but to call her for help.

"Hey, Mom, I'll go right away." Xu Lingyue agreed, and then went to get a basket and went to the vegetable garden.

There are still a lot of vegetables planted in their vegetable garden. After finding the location of green beans, she is ready to pick them. At this time, there are actually not many vegetables left. The bottom ones have basically been picked, but there are still many high ones. Xu Lingyue So she picked the green beans at the bottom first, and managed to pick a small handful, but it was not enough for a plate, so she could only pick the top ones.

However, she was not tall enough, so she reluctantly picked some. In the end, she couldn't pick some, so she had to give up.

She looked at the green beans in the basket, and felt that there was a plate, so Xu Lingyue went back with the basket.

After returning to the yard, she took the kidney beans to the well and cleaned them.

At this time, construction work had already started in the kitchen, with Mrs. Wu in charge and Mrs. Zhu lighting the fire.

When entering the kitchen, Xu Lingyue only felt a rush of heat. She put the washed green beans beside her. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhu had already shredded the potatoes, but the small ingredients were not ready yet.

Xu Lingyue went to peel two garlics, and took two wild peppers, cleaned them, chopped them and put them aside for later use.

At this time, Mrs. Wu had already started cooking the first dish. Xu Lingyue glanced at the pot and saw that it was meat. She guessed that Mrs. Wu was cooking braised pork. Not to mention, after just a short time, the aroma of the meat was already gone. It floated out, causing her to swallow her saliva a little greedily.

After a while, the braised pork was out of the pot, and Xu Lingyue was responsible for bringing it to the table.

The second dish is sweet potato leaves and stir-fried sweet potato sticks. She still likes this dish.

The third dish is stir-fried string beans.

The fourth dish is chicken stew with potatoes.

……

A total of thirteen dishes were cooked, including five meat dishes and eight vegetarian dishes. However, there were some repetitive dishes, such as stewed chicken with potatoes. Only two dishes were cooked, which counted as two dishes.

After all these dishes are cooked, Xu Lingyue will teach Zhu's how to cook hot and sour potato shreds.

Not to mention, the other party's talent in cooking is quite high, and he basically knows everything. The hot and sour potato shreds are cooked in no time. Xu Lingyue secretly tasted it, and the taste is not bad.

With this dish, there are fourteen dishes in total.

However, the dishes were all cooked, and no one came back. Mrs. Wu seemed a little anxious to wait, so she said, "I'll go and have a look."

However, as soon as she stood up, the sound of talking and laughing came from the yard.

Sure enough, Dad and the others came back.

Everyone washed their hands and was ready to eat.

When they saw the table of dishes, the workers all showed surprise eyes. In fact, this table of dishes was considered very rich for them, comparable to a banquet.

After a busy morning, everyone naturally wanted to drink, so Xu Lingyue thought of wine, and quickly suggested to old man Xu: "Father, why don't you take out the wine and let everyone have a taste."

"This..." After hearing this proposal, old man Xu hesitated.

Mainly, he didn't know whether the wine in his daughter's mouth was good or not. After all, in his impression, the wine was sour and astringent. It would be a joke if the wine he brewed at home didn't taste good.

Uncle Meng on the side is a wine fan, and when he heard that there was wine, his eyes showed a hint of interest.

"Girl Ayue, this wine is made by myself. Then Uncle Meng wants to taste your craftsmanship." He seemed a little curious, looked at Xu Lingyue kindly, and said jokingly.

Although it was a joke, after hearing Uncle Meng's words, everyone began to make fun of old man Xu.

Seeing that the atmosphere had been enhanced to this point, the old man Xu asked her to take out a jar for everyone to taste. Everyone's impression of wine was sour and astringent, so what she said was basically a joke. Seeing that he took it seriously, the big guy was really curious about the wine at this time.

Xu Lingyue hurriedly moved out a jar from the wine cellar, holding the heavy wine. At this time, she was also looking forward to it, and more was looking forward to it not being sour and astringent like they said. It would have been wasted.

Soon, she came out holding the wine jar.

Under the expectant eyes of everyone, she nervously opened the lid, and a strong fruit wine scent wafted out.

One of the young men took two sharp breaths of the fragrance that came out, and couldn't help sighing: "This wine smells really good."

Smelling the aroma of this fruit wine, old man Xu was also a little surprised at this moment, and was vaguely looking forward to its taste.

Then, Xu Lingyue poured a bowl for everyone, almost everyone knew how to drink, even Wu Shi, who didn't drink often on weekdays, was attracted by the aroma, and quickly poured a bowl to try it.

Looking at the purple-red liquid in the bowl, they were still shocked. As a wine lover, Uncle Meng took a sip first.

He drank half a bowl directly, and the sour taste in his impression did not hit, but a strong fruity aroma, with a hint of sweetness, rich and thick taste, Uncle Meng's eyes lit up immediately, as if he was impressed by this smell. It's amazing.
