The fierce peasant woman is busy farming

After Zhou Yue separated the rabbits, he forgot about it.

She went to the front yard and started preparing things, planning to go to the mountains tomorrow to start the next wave of winemaking.

She took out several kinds of distiller's yeast, ground them into powder, and put them in bags into the basket on her back.

Among them are white koji made from white flour and glutinous rice flour, as well as secret koji made from white flour, yellow rice and mung beans.

Both of these need a long time to dry, so I brought them this time.

Of course, there is also the Polygonum aviculare made from Polygonum odoratum and glutinous rice flour. I used it for a shorter time last time, but this time it has been kept for so long, so it is easier to use.

Arriving at Taoyuan Valley, Zhou Yue first went to the small valley and picked all the remaining roses.

Rose flowers can be used to make rose jam, snacks, or added when making wine.

Good things cannot be wasted, they must be taken back to the cave.

In the cave, I opened the fruit wine that was sealed last time and found that vinegar was added to it. It tasted very sour and had become fruit vinegar.

Without adding anything, the wine tastes mellow and is a cellared fruit wine.

This time, Zhou Yue planned to bring back some fruit wine and purify some of it using the distiller he made at home.

Let’s see if we can make a strong liquor like brandy.

It's just that the still is not fully finished yet.

There is no glass here and iron is too expensive, so Zhou Yue uses porcelain.

Of course, porcelain is not cheap.

The other parts were made of free wood.

The principle was proposed by Zhou Yue, but the production depends on the two people in the family - one is a master craftsman and the other is a future scientist.

As for the fruit vinegar, I took it home, added sugar and experimented a few more times to make fruit vinegar drinks.

Then we take it to the market and try to sell it, and then decide on the contrast between sour and sweet based on the feedback from the customers.

Zhou Yue directed several people to move out wild grapes, wild apples, peaches, pomegranates and other fruits, as well as some sorghum.

Some were washing fruits, some were washing the big vats, some were washing the big stones to prepare for drying the fruits... everyone was busy with their own things.

There are even more large vats in this cave, and these cost Zhou Yue a lot of money.

After finishing the preliminary work, Zhou Yue estimated that there were a lot of ingredients to brew this time, so it would probably take several days.

Lunch would be brought up the mountain by Qian and Old Man Ning on a donkey.

While the initial work was done and waiting to be dried, the others sat on the big rocks and drank hot tea.

Qing Mo also likes all kinds of tea. She brought rose tea and mulberry leaf tea and brewed a few cans.

Zhou Yue couldn't sit still, so he went to pick up cypress branches and cypress seed shells.

Qing Mo couldn't sit still, so he went to pull the weeds with his mother.

"Mom, what are you doing with this?"

“Your grandma always has trouble sleeping, so I want to buy her a cypress shell pillow.

Also, I want to make incense.”

"Oh I got it.

Mom, doesn’t this pillow make me feel uncomfortable?

Also, how do you make incense using cypress leaves and cypress seed shells? "

Zhou Yue was plucking cypress leaves and dropping cypress seed shells while answering his daughter's question:

“No, we can just break up the cypress seed shells a little bit and put them in a thick pillowcase.

As for making incense, it is even simpler.

Remove the seeds from the cypress seed shell, boil them in boiling water, and then dry them.

Then soak it in wine for another week, filter it out and dry it.

Finally, it is ground into powder and becomes incense powder. "

"Oh, how did the incense powder become the kind of incense that burns individually?"

“Well, then we need to use glutinous rice.

Cook the glutinous rice into porridge, and then skim out the rice soup.

The porridge can be eaten and not wasted.

You can add fragrant powder to the rice soup and then knead it into dough.

The dough should be neither too soft nor too hard, and then you can roll it into incense sticks by hand.

Of course, it is better to use tools to squeeze the incense.

Go home and ask Grandpa and Yang Mo to make a tool for squeezing incense."

As the mother and daughter talked, they picked cypress leaves and berries, and soon they had filled a large basket.

Put it aside and carry it back home later.

We have enough wine at home now, and making this incense requires a lot of wine to soak.

Fortunately, wine can be reused, otherwise such good wine would be wasted.

The raw materials are dried and everyone continues to work.

Soon the sun was overhead, and just when everyone was feeling tired and hungry, they heard a loud donkey bray on the road below the mountain.

Light years have passed.

Finally lunch arrived.

The Ning family sat around a big rock and ate hot meals.

Guangnian was tied to a big tree, with some poor quality fruits placed at his feet.

Guangnian loves eating fruits the most. He snorts while eating to express his joy.

Originally it was reluctant to climb the mountain, but when it heard Qian say there were fruits to eat in the mountains.

It was carrying a lot of things and finally climbed up, and sure enough, there were some sweet, sour, and crispy fruits to eat.

While Guangnian was feasting, Brother Dao was chasing pheasants and rabbits.

There are many pheasants and rabbits in this mountain, as well as wild boars and roe deer.

But it's not common.

Brother Dao has grown into a majestic big dog. When he stands up, he is as tall as an adult.

Judging from his weight, he must be at least 100 kilograms.

Zhou Yue felt that what Song Yuan said was wrong.

Brother Dao is not a wolf, it should be a hybrid of dog and wolf.

Therefore, it is taller and stronger than the average wolf, but its running speed and ferocity are stronger than the average domestic dog.

It is a very qualified guard dog.

During this period, Ren Pingsheng lived in the village, teaching Jun Mo martial arts every day with all his heart.

He also wrote a prescription and gave it to Zhou Yue, asking her to follow the prescription and give Jun Mo a herbal bath.

Zhou Yue looked at the prescription and found that he was suitable, so he went to the pharmacy in the town to get the medicine himself.

By the way, let Dr. Yang take a look at the prescription. It would be better to let a professional check it.

Doctor Yang nodded and praised the prescription as good and suitable for children.

Zhou Yue then followed Ren Pingsheng's instructions and brought back ten prescriptions.

The next day, she boiled the medicinal juice in a large clay pot, mixed it with warm water, and gave Jun Mo a medicinal bath in the room where he lived.

After soaking for a while, Zhou Yue found that Jun Mo's complexion looked much better.

There is some meat on the body.

It seems the effect is quite obvious.

Today, hunter Ren also came to the mountain.

Helping with the work was secondary to him; his main purpose was to go back to his original home in the mountains.

He took Jun Mo over mountains and across rivers and returned to the cave where he had originally lived.

When he came back he brought some skins with him, saying that the dried meat he had saved was eaten by other wild animals.

These are the only leathers that can still be used, so I brought them back.

It just so happened that Zhou Yue planned to use these furs to make some warm clothes for the elderly and children.

The leather can also be made into leather boots for people who need to go out in winter.

Soon the sun set and everyone packed up and prepared to go home.

Guangnian had a full meal and Dao Ge also had a very satisfying time.

Walking on the small path in the mountains, jogging all the way home.

Everyone else was very tired and couldn't catch up with the dog and the donkey. Only Ren Pingsheng and Jun Mo followed closely behind them.

When I got home, I saw Chunniang busy in the kitchen.

Zhou Yue was shocked. She had just finished her confinement period and it was winter again.

Chunniang went to the kitchen to cook. What if she caught a cold?

Qian and Zhou Yue ran into the kitchen and saw Chunniang squatting on the ground making a fire.

He immediately pulled her up with a dark face and pushed her back to the east wing.

"I've told you so many times, why can't you remember?

You must rest for seventy days, not a single day less.

During this period, you cannot touch cold water, squat for long periods of time, or overwork. "

"Mother, mother, grandma, listen to me, I'm fine now.

It's totally possible to work.

Besides, cooking is not hard work.”
