Teach my brother-in-law

Lin Mutou is indeed a qualified farmer. He can not only farm the land, brew wine, but also carpentry. I heard that he can also do mud and water work.

No, he ran back with the blueprint drawn by Bai He, and Lin Zicai followed.Of course, the way Lin Zicai looks at Bai He has also changed a lot. He is probably thinking about what is in his wife's mind, one idea after another keeps popping up, from setting a trap to catching wild boars, to taking over quickly The closed shop, the green vegetables grown in the greenhouse in the backyard, are now playing with the transformation of the brewing process.This is still a lady when she was just married, she is almost a fairy.

After Lin Mutou and Lin Zi left, Bai He looked around and said: "Sister-in-law, this winery must not be so simple, there are villagers living on both sides, so don't let someone steal your wine-making skills." Bai He was afraid that after Lin Mutou made the necessary equipment to brew high-strength wine, others would secretly learn these equipment and distillation methods. As for the ordinary wine-making method, the nearby villagers would more or less know it.

"Brothers and sisters, you can rest assured that there are several wine-making methods in the vicinity, but the taste of the wine is different because of the different formulas of each family. As long as the formula is in hand and you learn this wine-making method, it doesn't matter." He said with a smile. This brother and sister is also a question in her head.And I also have some ideas about the several utensils painted by Bai He. If it is really as simple as the utensils painted, it can brew high-strength wine, all the masters in the breweries in the world should have learned how to make these utensils long ago.Besides, in He's mind, Bai He is just an ordinary daughter-in-law of the Lin family in Xiushankou, Qibei.No matter how powerful an ordinary daughter-in-law is, can she change the brewing process that has been passed down for hundreds of years?And because he needed to ask Bai He to help sell alcohol, He didn't say anything.

The two tidied up the brewery, and then returned to He's home. Lin Mutou was making utensils painted by Bai He, and a dozen sawn pieces of wood were planed smooth and placed aside.I also saw him cut the wooden dowels, drill small holes on the side of the wooden block, nail the wooden dowels in one by one, and then snap into the wooden dowels piece by piece, and a round barrel-shaped object came out. The iron wire was tightly tied twice to prevent the wooden barrel from bursting, but the wooden barrel has no bottom cover on both sides, and it is still not rectangular. The lower part and the upper part are gradually narrowed, and a circular hole is drilled in the middle.

"Brother and sister, do you think this is suitable?" Lin Mutou was very satisfied with his carpentry work, and put some effort into making this thing. Fortunately, there is wood at home, so it is convenient to arrive.

"It's almost there, but there are still some gaps in the middle. Why don't you soak it in water for half an hour." The wooden barrel is made of dry wood, and there are still some thin gaps in the middle, which will affect it a little. After soaking in water for half an hour, the dry board will expand after eating water, and these gaps will no longer exist.

"Okay, just do as you said, brother and sister. It would be better to brush with a few layers of tung oil, but brother and sister are in a hurry to use it, so you can only do this." Lin Mutou lifted the wooden barrel and put it in a small pond not far away.

There are still some lotus roots in the pond, just a few scattered branches.

"Sister-in-law, do you keep these lotus root branches for planting? Can you dig a few for me? I'll take them back and plant them in the back of the yard. I think I can eat some fresh lotus roots in winter." It is rare to see lotus roots in the Northwest. Especially in summer, the lotus leaves and lotus flowers can be described as a scene, which is very beautiful when you think about it.

"Okay, when I leave later, I'll dig some for you. I didn't expect my younger siblings to like this lotus. In fact, there are many in your old yard, but now you..." He said with a smile. The lotus root in my home has been around for many years, and it was dug out from the old yard of the Lin family and transplanted into this small pond.

The old yard He mentioned was the yard where Lin Zicai's father lived. It can be regarded as the ancestral property of the Lin family, but he never thought that the family's fortune would be ruined. After a few years, the family's field would be sold to others.Bai He has never been in that yard all this time. Firstly, there is an old man guarding the yard all the year round. Secondly, it is no longer the Lin family's yard after all. Going to see it will only add to the sadness.

Turning around, he saw Lin Zicai standing at the gate of the courtyard, without saying a word, probably also stimulated by what He said.Bai He can imagine that when her father-in-law, that is, Lin Dapao, was still there, the scene in the Lin family compound must be full of people coming and going, so lively, with Lin Dapao, Lin Zi, his mother, the Lin brothers, Mo'er, and the renter Tenants, young men who sell goods.

"Master, we will buy the yard back when we earn enough money." Bai He felt a little sad when he saw Lin Zicai, so he walked over and leaned against Lin Zicai and said softly.

"En!" Lin Zi hummed, as if recalling the past.

Bai He doesn't want to get entangled in this issue any longer. The Lin family mansion will definitely be able to buy it back if it makes money in the future. This issue is related to the face of the Lin family, so it will definitely be bought back, but it is true that there is not much money on hand right now. There are dozens of rooms in the courtyard, a front yard and a back yard, and a tall wall. I am afraid it will cost a few hundred taels of silver to buy it back.

"Sister-in-law, take out that cauldron on your stove. Let's wash the pot first and we'll need it later." Bai He diverted the conversation to prevent Lin Zi from being overly sad. Don't think about it when you sell it, but now you have to spend several times the selling price if you want to buy it back.

Mrs. He took out the big pot from the stove, and the two of them shoveled off the black dirt on the bottom of the pot by the small pond, and then washed the bottom of the pot with plant ash.

Lin Mu's utensils are also basically ready. The knots in the middle of a three-foot-long bamboo have been opened to form a bamboo trough that can run water. Both sides are split in half and the middle is left unbroken. Bottomless wood Put the bucket in a small pond for a while, and the few thin gaps in the middle also bite together.The bamboo is stuffed into the hole in the middle of the bottomless wooden bucket, it is just the right size.

Lin Mutou was carrying the bottomless wooden barrel, Lin Zicai was holding the cauldron, He Shi and Bai He were carrying two small wine jars each, Tweety was pulling two younger brothers Lin Wang who had come back from crazy fun, and Lin Xing went all the way. Follow along.

When he arrived at the brewery, he cleaned the original cauldron on the stove, asked Mrs. He to light a fire, and called Lin Zicai to pour the koji from the previous vat into the cauldron, and then asked Lin Mutou to put the bottomless wooden barrel in the brewery. On the big pot, and finally put the bottomless wooden barrel on top of the pot that was moved from home and then fill it with water, and then adjusted the position of the bamboo pipe.

"Is this all right?" He asked in a low voice. This is the first time she has seen this method of brewing wine. She is a little curious and a little worried, but more eager. Maybe it can really brew better wine. What about fine wine?

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, everything is ready, I only owe the east wind, this method can definitely make wine with higher alcohol content." In fact, Bai He is also worried, whether it can be brewed as simple and fast as the rural wine brewers in later generations I'm still a little worried, but Baihe knows the tools and methods, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

The fire in the stove was getting hotter and hotter, and the koji in the cauldron was boiling.
