It's been a month since the incident of Bai Jinjin happened. Mei Qiduo has been idle for some time. However, Mei Qiduo is busy now. Even Fengling never wants to come here, but Mei Qiduo refuses. She says that it's her busy day now. Let him not disturb her.
In a few days, even when the grapes are ripe, it's her first time to make wine, and it's also related to whether her winery can make a name by this. Meiqiduo naturally attaches great importance to it.
On this day, Mei Qiduo and Xue Wan went to the back mountain to look at the grapes. They saw that the grapevines were full of life, especially many grapes had been covered with vines. When the wind blew, they could smell the aroma of grapes.
It's intoxicating.
When Xue Wan saw so many grapes, his face was full of smiles. He asked with a smile, "master, when shall we start picking grapes?" These grapes are all precious now. At the thought of the great repercussions caused by the fruit wine before, zuixianlou is now well-known in Liushu town.
If according to the owner, the wine brewed from this grape is unique, it will be difficult not to attract attention at that time.
Mei Qiduo looked at a large vineyard with a confident smile in her eyes and said, "we can start picking after waiting for two or three days. At that time, you can find some people, and then calculate according to the Jin they picked. One Jin is ten coppers Meiqiduo said the following things lightly.
After all, this grape picking must not be done by the servants in the family, and there are other things for them to do. Since they can solve the problem with silver, Mei Qiduo is naturally willing to solve it with silver.
Xue Wan heard Mei Qiduo say this, nodded and replied, "yes, the owner arranged it."
The manager of the vineyard is very excited to hear Mei Qiduo say so. Although he has three liang of silver for a month, he has done a lot here. Especially when he sees that the owner is so good that he has given all the vineyards to himself. No one can interfere.
Naturally, I want to manage the vineyard well, and I will live up to the trust of my master. Especially seeing this grape growing day by day, my heart is also very proud.
"Steward Lin, you told us today that we should work hard these days, and then we will have two days' holiday at the same time." Mei Qiduo said faintly, after all, these long-term workers have been here for nearly half a year now, and these people are all displaced from their hometown. This period of time is also hard for them. Naturally, they are not the kind of inhuman people.
And once the grapes are picked, it will naturally take a period of time to repair them, which can give them a rest.
When Lin Guanshi heard Mei Qiduo say this, his eyes were full of surprises. Now he has been out for half a year, and he still doesn't know how he is at home. At this time, he heard his boss say this, his eyes were full of surprises, and he said: "I thank my boss for them, we will do well, and we won't let him down." Tone is very excited, even the body is also with a slight tremor, eyes also with a look of disbelief.
"Well." Meiqiduo doesn't seem to see Lin's gaffe. She answers lightly.
When Xue Wan saw the manager Lin beside him like this, he admired Mei Qiduo more and more. His boss made it clear that this was to bribe people's heart, and let people feel grateful in this way. Xue Wan was very glad that he was chosen by his boss at that time, and Xue Wan also believed in it, As long as Mei Qiduo wants to do something, it will always be done, and it will be done. Xue Wan looks at Mei Qiduo with such confidence at this time, and his eyes are also proud.
"By the way, you'll buy some cans later." Mei Qiduo suddenly thought of this wine making jar. Although there were still some jars for fruit wine last time, it was far from enough. Now, if these grapes are to be picked, they will all be used for wine making. Moreover, compared with fruit wine, wine will certainly be made in more jars. Naturally, more jars are needed.
When Xue Wan heard Mei Qiduo say this, he quickly said with a smile, "OK, I'll do it right." Xue Wan naturally thought of what meiqiduo wanted these tubes for. When he thought of these, Xue Wan was suddenly very excited.
"You can handle the silver by yourself. The quality must pass the standard. Besides, go to see if there are transparent jars and so on. White jade or anything else is OK, as long as it's transparent and you can see what's inside. " Meiqiduo thought that after the wine was brewed, it would be put in a more suitable vessel, which would be pleasing to the eye.
What's more, it will make people see the effect.
Xue Wan was slightly stunned, meditated a little, and said, "there is no such thing, but the price is a little more expensive." Especially white jade, if you can't get that price, it's not worth it. Isn't it a loss?
And this transparent can only takes a certain amount of time to make.
"Xue Shu, rest assured that wine and Baijiu are more and more fragrant. We can only make a few white jade cans, allowing guests to see what is inside. As long as you don't buy it. " When Mei Qiduo saw the look on Xue Wan's face, he knew what he was thinking in his heart and said faintly.
Xue Wan heard Mei Qiduo explain this way. He was very clear in his heart. He was very embarrassed and said with a smile, "it's still the owner's thoughtful." If the wine brewed by this grape is very beautiful, it is very appropriate to put it in a white jade jar.
Although Liushu town is a relatively small town, looking at the appearance of meiqiduo, it is naturally not satisfied with the simplicity of a Liushu town. When you arrive in the capital or other places, it will be very attractive.
Xue Wan's action is very fast. By the next day, Xue Wan had already transported more than 200 cans to Mei's house. When Mei Qiduo came out to see, he was very surprised. He really didn't expect Xue Wan's action to be so fast. Mei Qiduo once had to sigh about the efficiency of ancient people.
"That... Uncle Xue, a little too much." Mei Qiduo looked at the jar full of several cars and said helplessly.
"Master, don't worry. The old slave specially asked the jar seller. Even if he didn't put it there, it wouldn't be broken." Xue Wanle said happily, and because he bought more, the can seller was also a kind family, and gave him a lot of cheaper.
Mei Qiduo heard Xue wan say so, but she didn't say any more. She ordered a little and said, "you can do it. Tomorrow, let Aunt Li clean these cans thoroughly, and then let them soak them in boiling water. Make sure it's a one-time success.
"All right, master."
……
It's a big event for the Mei family since they know that Mei Qiduo will start picking grapes soon. Especially these days, Xue Wan asked Aunt Li and the servant girl to clean the jar well. In particular, the jar should be cleaned clean and scalded inside and outside with boiling water. Finally, all the water in the jar should be dried before it can be used for wine making.
"Mammy Qin, do you think the wine made by the owner is as good as fruit wine?" Dongxue, who was younger, asked expectantly. She drank a few mouthfuls of the fruit wine brewed by her owner last time. It was sour and sweet, very refreshing.
Especially when she thought about what wine she was going to make recently, Dongxue naturally looked forward to it.
"You are a girl who wants to make good things." Mother Qin said with a smile.
When Dongxue heard mother Qin say this, she was very naive and laughed. Then she stopped talking and focused on the jar in her hand. Since they came to Mei's house, it's just like a day in heaven. She doesn't have to worry about hunger all day long, and there's a lot of beating and scolding from granny.
"What are you laughing at?" When Mei Xiaolan came out, she saw that mother Qin and several servant girls were coming. Her face was full of smiles. She asked curiously.
Several people saw Mei Xiaolan coming, quickly got up and saluted, and said in unison, "Hello, madam!"
"Well, you don't have to be so polite, but it's hard for you." Mei Xiaolan saw the jars cleaned in their hands. Naturally, she knew that these jars were the ones Mei Qiduo was going to use to make wine. Looking at these cans, Mei Xiaolan sighed in her heart that the girl might have something new to make.
Since Mei Xiaolan told meI Qiduo about that, Mei Qiduo is still the same as before. It seems that the whole thing is not in her mind. But Mei Xiaolan doesn't know why she always has a strong uneasiness in her heart.
I always feel that something serious will happen in the future.
"It's not hard. It's what slaves should do." Mammy Qin replied that these things were not really hard for mammy Qin. After all, she had experienced more hard things before, not to mention such a small thing.
Mei Xiaolan went to the middle of the crowd, then squatted down and followed the crowd to clean the jar. When several people saw Mei Xiaolan doing this, they were full of fear in their eyes and said, "madam, this can't be used. If the owner..." they knew that, they would be angry.
"No problem. If you stay in the house all day, your bones are almost crisp. It's better to do some work." Mei Xiaolan interrupts them. Since Mei Qiduo made money, she hasn't worked for a long time, especially watching Mei Qiduo develop the Mei family better and better, and she can only make clothes for duo'er at home.
Sometimes Mei Xiaolan sighed that one day she was in the light of her daughter.
"But..." what else does mother Qin have to say.
"Nothing. Didn't dor work with you before? Why can't I? " Mei Xiaolan pretended to be angry and said that she put it down on her face.
Mother Qin was at a loss when she saw Mei Xiaolan with such a face. Although she didn't agree with Mei Xiaolan, she didn't know what to say, especially when she saw Mei Xiaolan's persistent face at this time.
