Chapter 863 Brewing
The next day, Guo Xiu and the others were still eating, and Wang Rouhua came to the door. She laughed when she saw the basket of grapes.

"Is there anything wrong at home?"

"How come there are so many things to be busy with nothing to do, but there are still sister-in-law and younger siblings! The grapes have been picked for a few days, and if they don't make wine, they will go bad."

Guo Xiu speeded up her meal.

The dumpling ate the custard and jumped off the stool, picked a grape and ate it, his face instantly wrinkled into a steamed stuffed bun.Nuomi laughed out loud looking at her brother, she also picked one and stuffed it into her mouth, her eyes widened and she spit it out instantly.

Wang Rouhua looked at the facial expressions of the two children and laughed loudly; "These grapes are very sour. I lost my teeth after eating one a few days ago. I don't know where my father picked it."

Guo Xiu cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, and brought out a basin of water; "Actually, it's not difficult to make wine. First, wash it, and then peel it. This peeling is very particular. Last year, I thought of a good method, which is to make wine first. Scald it quickly in boiling water and put it in ice water, and the skin will be fine."

After Guo Xiu explained the method, the two started to act. One prepared boiling water and the other prepared ice water. Tuanzi and Nuomi squatted beside the two of them, watching curiously, and discussing a few words from time to time.

A pot of grapes was quickly peeled by the two of them, and then they were crushed. The juice extraction had to be done slowly. Guo Xiu specially prepared a sackcloth when extracting the juice, so that the fruit pulp filtered out.Looking at the jar of grape juice after more than an hour, Guo Xiu talked to Wang Rouhua about the ratio of sugar, and then there were some points to pay attention to and details, and it was not difficult for Wang Rouhua to learn it quickly.

"I didn't expect that making wine is so simple. I used to think that Dad's wine making is much more troublesome than this."

"If you use sorghum to make wine, it is indeed more troublesome than this process."

He handed over the method of making wine to Wang Rouhua, and the two washed their hands and sat on the side chatting.

"Pomegranate is still as thin-skinned as before, so I don't come here often."

"She is that kind of person, and she is also afraid of other people's gossip, unlike me, no matter what others say, I don't care."

"Why didn't you bring Da Ya over today?"

"She was playing with her sister when I came! I didn't bring her here."

"I have left some cotton seeds for you, and I will plant them with the people in the valley next year, and you will have new clothes in September."

"Even if you don't say it, I will mention it. Ever since I came to the valley, I don't know how happy my father and mother are. They happily say that this place is better than ours. This short year We have doubled the amount of grain we had before.”

Guo Xiu laughed after hearing this; "Life will definitely get better and better in the future. When the men come back, they will go out collectively to pick wild fruits and chestnuts. After a while, the yams will be eaten. If you work harder, you won’t be able to starve.”

"That's right! In the past, our family was the only ones around Yixiantian, and my parents didn't talk to anyone. Now they don't see anyone until early in the morning, and they don't come back until it's time for dinner."

"How is Mrs. Xiong doing these days?"

"My sister-in-law is very good in that she can eat more."

"It's a good thing to be able to eat."

Wang Rouhua thought for a while and whispered a few words in Guo Xiu's ear. She couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard her words. There is nothing she doesn't know, and now she even knows other people's secrets.

Seeing Guo Xiu's shocked look, Wang Rouhua smiled smugly, patted her hand and left holding the wine jar.
