Chapter 29 Brewing
"Miaomiao, what are the aunts talking about?"

When Miao Miao heard Li Muyun's inquiry, a blush appeared on her face, and then she hesitated and said:
"No, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. Let's eat first."

Li Muyun glanced at Miao Xiaomiao suspiciously, but did not ask any more questions. Instead, he said to his aunt who was present:
"Aunts, you haven't eaten yet. Come and eat with us."

Everyone present naturally came after eating. They all knew what was going on with Miao Xiaomiao's family. They not only came after eating, but also brought things from home.

Some people brought eggs, and others brought bacon. Even those who were reluctant to bring them also brought their own pickled sauerkraut or dried vegetables.

When he heard Li Muyun say this, he quickly waved his hand and said:
"You guys go and eat quickly, we can just chat here."

Li Muyun looked suspiciously at his aunt who was talking happily, and did not pursue the matter further. He walked into the kitchen and started eating with Miao Xiaomiao.

"Miaomiao, do these aunts usually come to the house to chat?"

Miao Xiaomiao looked outside, then shook her head and said:
"No, today is special."

"What happened today?"

Naturally, Miao Xiaomiao would not tell Li Muyun that they came just to see him. She just smiled and said:

"They said that my brother and I had no one to take care of us, and they were thinking of finding me an in-law."

Miao Xiaomiao originally planned to say this to make Li Muyun give up her thoughts, but unexpectedly Li Muyun frowned and thought carefully for a while before saying:

"It's time to find an in-law's family. When I go home, I'll ask my parents to come to your house to propose marriage. By the way, are there any customs in the village or what are the required gifts?"

"what?"

Miao Xiaomiao was stunned for a moment. She originally wanted him to give up, but she didn't expect that Li Muyun thought she wanted him to propose marriage to her.

"You misunderstood. People in the village want to find another in-laws for me."

Li Muyun's originally gentle expression suddenly turned cold.

"Miaomiao, have you told them that you have found your in-laws?"

"Huh? No."

"I'll go out and tell them later."

Li Muyun said and put down the eating bowl. ,

Miao Xiaohe, who was eating obediently next to him, saw that his always gentle and gentle elder brother suddenly became angry. He was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head to eat, fearing that the elder brother would vent his anger on him.

Miao Xiaomiao was afraid that he would go out and say random things, so she quickly reached out and pulled him back.

"Don't go, I didn't promise them."

When Miao Xiaomiao said this, Li Muyun's tone instantly softened, and then he reached out and patted Miao Xiaomiao's head.

"Be good, since I promised to take care of you, I will definitely take good care of you. You are still young now."

Miao Xiaomiao was a little dumbfounded by Li Muyun's coaxing tone, but she was afraid that he would talk nonsense when he went out, so she stopped confronting Li Muyun and could only eat in silence.

When Li Muyun came out after dinner, the aunt present was still sitting in the yard chatting. When she saw Li Muyun coming out, she quickly waved to Li Muyun to sit over.

Miao Xiaomiao, on the other hand, was clearing away the dishes in the kitchen.

By the time Miao Xiaomiao came out, Li Muyun had already started chatting with his aunt who was present.

Miao Xiaomiao was a little surprised, and then she heard them discussing how to grow food to increase food production, and how to remedy the yellowing of food leaves at home.Li Muyun listened carefully and then gave his professional opinions. ,

When the aunts saw that Li Muyun was so easy to talk to, the admiration on their faces became even more obvious.

Thinking of the food she had just soaked for almost four hours, Miao Xiaomiao went back to the kitchen to boil water and planned to cook the food together.

After all the aunts outside had left one after another, Li Muyun turned around and returned to the kitchen. When he saw Miao Xiaomiao's movements, there was some guessing on his face?
"Are you going to make wine?"

Miao Xiaomiao was a little surprised. How did Li Muyun know?
"How do you know it?"

He pointed to the koji placed on the table, and then pointed to what was cooking in Miao Xiaomiao's pot.

"Do you have anything at home for distilling?"

Miao Xiaomiao shook her head, then pointed to the hose in the corner and said to Li Muyun:

“But I bought a hose and could connect one myself.”

Li Muyun frowned and looked at the hose, then smelled the hose, and finally shook his head.

"This thing must be exposed to high temperatures when it is distilled. It will produce toxic substances when used to make wine. I will get you a professional set later."

Miao Xiaomiao looked at Li Muyun's serious look, and it didn't look like he was joking. He quickly said to Li Muyun:
"You don't even ask me why I'm making wine? What if I'm just doing it for fun?"

When Li Muyun heard what Miao Xiaomiao said, a smile appeared on his face.

"As long as you like it."

Li Muyun did not delve into the reason why Miao Xiaomiao made wine, but just said this to Miao Xiaomiao dotingly.

Even if she just brewed it for fun, or if she wanted to brew it for something else, he wouldn't stop her, as long as she was happy.

Miao Xiaomiao did not expect Li Muyun to have such an attitude, and her favorability towards Li Muyun instantly increased by a few points.

Even if the adults in the family are present, when they hear that they are brewing wine, they will ask about the reasons and consider the feasibility. However, Li Muyun will only help him get things done instead of asking for the root cause.

Miao Xiaomiao would still like such people.

In the next work, Li Muyun helped Miao Xiaomiao, and things were almost done soon.

This wine can't be brewed in just one or two days. It needs to ferment for half a month. During this time, Miao Xiaomiao stayed at home. Li Muyun went to the vegetable field to take care of the vegetables during the day, which was also convenient. Taoists taught villagers how to grow crops.

After coming back in the evening, he did not rush to sleep. Instead, he asked someone to borrow some elementary school textbooks and taught Miao Xiaomiao to study.

Even Miao Xiaohe, who was only two years old, could more or less recite two ancient poems while listening.

After half a month, Li Muyun brought a set of distillation equipment. Miao Xiaomiao stood beside him, filtered out the fermented wine, and then poured the brewed wine into the still. Light a fire.

Not long after, Miao Xiaomiao saw water droplets starting to drip from the equipment where the distillation was continued.

This is precum coming out.

After Miao Xiaomiao took it for a few minutes, when the wine containing impurities in the front became clear, she changed to another jar and took the wine in the middle.

The distillation of this wine is divided into three categories. The first is the one with the highest alcohol content, but it is also the turbidest. This kind of wine is generally not used for drinking.
