Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

"Mom is so nice." Gu Qingzhi immediately smiled happily.

With the help of Gu Wangshi, their brewing process became much faster.

Gu Wangshi went to prepare the wine jars.

Gu Qingzhi was not idle either. She picked out all the remaining wild grapes, picked out the bad ones, and then placed them on the drying mat to dry.

After finishing the process, she took out the icing sugar she bought at the market today and processed it first so that it could be better blended with the grapes later.

The function of frosting is to provide the sugar needed for wine fermentation, and it can also increase the sweetness and concentration of the wine.

Gu Qingzhi recalled the contents of the book again.

It is mentioned above that, generally speaking, about 6 pound of icing sugar can be added for every 1 pounds of grapes.

Ran also said that the amount of icing sugar should be adjusted according to personal taste and the sweetness of the grapes.

The grapes they picked on the mountain were particularly sweet. Gu Qingzhi thought about it and felt that she could make some adjustments by reducing the proportion of icing sugar, so she changed it to 7 pound of icing sugar for every 1 pounds of grapes.

When making wine, you need to use a sealed container to ensure its fermentation.

The book also says that the container can be any glass bottle, plastic bucket or ceramic jar, as long as it is sealed and has a large enough capacity.

The only thing to note is that the container must be cleaned first, and it is best to boil it and then dry it.

Just now, Gu Qingzhi explained all these precautions to Gu Wangshi in detail.

Not long after, Gu Wang brought out several prepared wine jars. These wine jars were all filled with 50 kilograms. Gu Wang was afraid that they would not be enough, so she prepared six directly to be on the safe side.

She placed the wine jars on the open space in the yard and said, "Qing'er, I have boiled these jars with boiling water and now they are dry."

"That's great, mother, you are so kind."

Gu Qingzhi walked around the wine jars and found that they were cleaned by Gu Wangshi inside and out. She was very satisfied and praised her again without hesitation, "Mother, you are really great."

Gu Wang felt a little embarrassed and her face turned red. She was actually praised by her daughter, but she felt very happy in her heart.

Some of the washed grapes have been dried, and Gu Qingzhi plans to start making wine.

She washed her hands again and took out a clean handkerchief to dry them. She had to pay attention to hygiene when eating.

Then take the dried grapes and put the grapes and icing sugar into the wine jar in a ratio of 7:1.

After it was about 70% full, they stopped putting more in. Gu Wang was curious and puzzled, "Qing'er, why is that? There is still room for more."

"Mother, the book says that you should leave some space in the jar and not fill it up with grapes to prevent them from overflowing during fermentation."

Gu Wang nodded in understanding.

She must remember to study hard, so that if her daughter is busy in the future, she can brew it for her daughter after she has learned it.

Now she finally understood her daughter, who was restless. Ever since her relationship with Erlang improved, it seemed as if some strange seal had been broken. She always had many ideas in her mind. And she had a brother who completely indulged her no matter what she did.

Gu Qingzhi didn't know what her mother was thinking. She just thought her mother was simply curious when she asked, so she explained it this way.

After putting the grapes and icing sugar into the wine jar, Gu Qingzhi gently crushed the grapes in the jar with her hands, and then evenly mixed the grape juice, grape pulp and icing sugar together.

After doing all this, she covered the mouth of the wine jar with the lid. There was a small hole on the lid of the wine jar, and Gu Qingzhi took a clean gauze to block it.

It is said that this can allow the bad things produced during fermentation to be discharged, and at the same time prevent other things from entering and contaminating the wine.

Gu Qingzhi and Gu Wangshi worked for the entire afternoon and filled five wine jars before they finished packing the wild grapes.

Finally, they placed the wine jars in Gu Wang's house, which was warm, dry and dark, very suitable for the natural fermentation of wine.

After doing all this, Gu Qingzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The book recorded that at a temperature of 15-25 degrees Celsius, the fermentation time of wine varies depending on the temperature and taste. Based on the current temperature, she speculated that the fermentation time of these wines should be between 15 and 20 days.

Now, just wait for 15 days to see the results.

She was afraid that she would forget about it when she got busy, so she specifically told Gu Wangshi to remind her, "Also, mother, during the fermentation period of the wine, you must stir it gently with a clean spoon every few days to allow the grape pulp to dissolve better with the icing sugar. Mother, remember to remind me then."

Gu Wang tapped her forehead gently, "Don't worry, even if you forget, mother will remember it."

"Brother Zhang, sorry to have kept you waiting." A young man in green with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks hurriedly sat down in front of Zhang Chang.

He picked up the wine pot on the table, poured himself a glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, then picked up the meat on the table with chopsticks and ate a few bites, then put down the chopsticks and looked at the man opposite, "Brother Zhang, excuse me, I'm on duty today, and I haven't even had a hot meal yet, and I'm here to keep your appointment."

Seeing the other party's behavior just now, Zhang Chang's face couldn't help but look a little ugly, but when he remembered that he still needed help from him and that he still had to rely on him to get things done, he tried hard to suppress his dissatisfaction, and after a while, he forced a smile and said, "It's okay, Brother Ma, it's important to fill your stomach first."

The man in blue was named Ma Gui. He chuckled twice, clasped his fists perfunctorily, and complimented him a few times, "Brother Zhang is really considerate of us. No wonder Brother Zhang's business is so big."

As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up the meat and vegetables on the table.

Although he has been doing well in the mansion recently, who doesn't like to eat meat?

Zhang Chang felt happier after hearing this, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

He paid for the meal himself and he was still hungry, so he couldn't just let the meal go to others for free.

For a moment, the two men at the table were busy eating, and then they picked up their wine glasses and clinked glasses. Soon, the two brothers became good friends.

After having enough wine and food, Zhang Chang was the first to put down his chopsticks, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and asked hopefully, "Brother, how is your investigation going on with the purchase I mentioned earlier?"

Ma Gui smacked his lips in satisfaction, put down his wine glass, and said with some embarrassment, "Brother Zhang, you know I'm just a gatekeeper in the outer courtyard, I really can't get any information."

He paused after saying this, and seeing that the person opposite him looked a little unhappy, he added slowly, "However, my brother's adoptive father has recently become the manager of the inner courtyard..."
