Doomsday Farmhouse Tour

Chapter 5 Ways to Make Money

They are all from the same village, and they are not strangers to each other.By the time Zheng Geer finished the meal, the conversation inside was already heated up.

Brother Zheng hurriedly went to help serve the meals, stir-fried shredded pork with chili, stewed cabbage with vermicelli, fried peanuts, rapeseed with garlic, and braised pork, Sixi balls, and finally Zheng’s new crockpot stewed chicken.

If it weren't for such days, the village wouldn't be able to eat so much meat even during Chinese New Year.The braised pork is beautifully colored, the sixi balls are salty and sweet, especially the crock pot braised chicken, the mushrooms are fresh and tender, the potatoes are soft, and the radishes are fragrant.Especially without putting too much water, the original flavor of the chicken is locked inside.This should be the most delicious meal he has eaten in ancient times, Ah Mo is right... Brother Zheng is really capable and virtuous.

Lu Xiao is so picky that he finds it delicious, let alone Lu's father.I saw him repeatedly praising Brother Zheng for his craftsmanship, with a smile in his eyes.

While the elders began to recall the past again, Lu Xiao gently moved the chair and leaned over.With the cover of the sleeves of his robe, he shook the person's hand under the table, with a serious face.

"I promise to treat you well, protect you, and love you."

Zheng Geer followed the voice and looked over, his eyes were beautiful and deep...there was seriousness and firmness deep in the bottom of the eyes.His heart suddenly became very soft, as if it had turned into water.

He leaned over unconsciously, and said in a low voice, "I believe you..."

...

After the two families had their engagement banquet, they began to set off the firecrackers that had been prepared at the door. The sound of red firecrackers was loud and coherent.Neighbors came out to congratulate, and Lu Xiao followed Father Lu to salute everyone in a leisurely manner.

It was the beginning of June when Lu Xiao and Zheng Changan met, and it took two full months to go back and forth to test their relationship.Now it is the time when autumn is just approaching, and the busy farming season is coming... The marriage of the two can only be postponed until after the busy farming season, and winter comes just in time to get married and celebrate the New Year.

People in the village basically get married in summer or winter, and very few people choose to marry in autumn.

"At first I thought about what kind of brother Lu Xiao would marry, but now it seems that God has arranged it. Isn't this a good match..." It was Zheng Changan's uncle who was speaking, and he was in charge of setting off the whip today.Father Zheng's father left early, and his mother remarried again.Raising two younger brothers by himself, it was very difficult when he was a teenager.It wasn't until he married Zheng Mo that his younger brothers grew up and life became easier.

Although he was taciturn, he was also a loving and righteous man. If he hadn't been like this, Zheng wouldn't have married Zheng's father who was really poor and white back then.Therefore, Lu Xiao respected his father-in-law very much for all the affectionate and righteous actions before, and he treated this uncle very politely and humbly.

"It's my good fortune to be able to marry Chang'an, and I will live a good life alone with him in the future." Lu Xiao didn't deliberately drag the text, but used the most straightforward language to give the Zheng family a guarantee and promise.After hearing this, Father Lu couldn't help but glance at his son, feeling satisfied in his heart.

If a man can do anything if his backyard is messy, he might as well live a good life by guarding a man who is all about himself in his heart.

Uncle Zheng laughed even more happily when he heard it, and he was grateful for the difficulty of his elder brother pulling him and his third brother back then, and he treated the three children born to his sister-in-law as his own children.Now that his nephew is engaged, he naturally tried his best to arrange it.

Uncle Zheng lit firecrackers and chatted with Lu's father for a long time before he was called in by Lu to drink water and eat snacks.After looking at the sky, Father Lu decided to go back.You have to know that you have to go to the matchmaker before it is too late, so how about giving the matchmaker money, it is unlucky to thank the matchmaker late.

Naturally, Lu Xiao doesn't need to worry about these things and he doesn't understand them. At this moment, he only sees Zheng Chang'an who is secretly watching him behind the door.With Zheng Changan's shy nature, it is extremely rare to be able to secretly look at people at this time.

Lu Xiao cupped his hands slightly towards him, indicating that he saw it.Zheng Chang'an's face turned even redder, and after a pause, he hurriedly fled with a shadow behind him.

Looking at the back of the person who seemed to be being chased by someone, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, seeing that the back was gone, he obediently followed his father back to his home.Father Lu walks vigorously, this is the first time Lu Xiao sees Father Lu so energetic.

"Although it's an engagement, it's almost the same as getting married. There is no such thing as three wives and four concubines in our family. If you marry Chang'an, you have to treat them well. Stay away from those unmarried brothers on weekdays..." Father Lu walked He said that he believed in his son's character but still prudently instructed him.He could tell that the brother of the Zheng family liked his son.But his own son, he can't see it, maybe it's just that the time is too short and the love is not strong yet.

Lu Xiao naturally agreed, he didn't have those thoughts in the first place.As long as Brother Zheng can treat his father kindly, and don't do anything betrayal, I will definitely guard him for the rest of his life.

...

In the past two months since their engagement, Lu Xiao and Zheng Changan have been in contact more frequently.Because she is already engaged, there is no need to avoid suspicion on weekdays.Zheng Chang'an often went to Lu's house to help Lu Mo with some housework, but he never left food.

This day, Lu Xiao followed Zheng Dahai into the mountains and picked some fruits, mostly wild grapes, wild hawthorn and the like.Just after the busy autumn, Lu Xiao wanted to make some wine to sell.There is no need for a large amount, the rare is the most expensive... the price is right.He didn't want to make a fortune by brewing wine, after all, he was not professional and he didn't have a backer.If the shop is too big, it will be troublesome if it blocks other people's money, at least it is troublesome now.

When Lu Xiao got home, he asked Lu Mo and Zheng Changan to deal with the grapes. He didn't make trouble as soon as he came back. The grapes here are too easy to be delayed.

Zheng Changan is not a sensitive person, he watched Lu Xiao say hello to wash his hands and went to help without saying a word.On the contrary, Lu Mo felt embarrassed and asked others to do this and that before entering the door.Just looking at Zheng Changan's focused and serious face, he felt that he should stop talking.It's serious to invite someone's father over for a meal later...

Clean the grapes carefully, and remove all the stalks and grapes with broken skins.This work was obviously done better and more carefully by Chang'an. Nearly [-] catties of grapes were washed clean.

A hundred catties of grapes may seem like a lot, but it can be brewed into five or six altars, which is not enough to fit between the teeth in the big taverns in the county.

The standard for a large wine jar is ten catties, and it is considered excellent if two catties of grapes can produce one catty of wine.Moreover, wild grapes are sour, so more sugar must be added to it.

After the grapes are washed and dried carefully, a layer of grapes and a layer of sugar are placed neatly into the winemaking tank.Put it in two-thirds and use the prepared tools to crush and mash vigorously to separate the peel and pulp completely.

By the time a few people finished their work, the sun was almost setting.Earlier, Lu Mo asked Lu's father to go to Zheng's house to invite people to eat here.We can't let the parent, An, work for most of the day and don't even give him a meal. If he doesn't ask Father Zheng to come, Zheng Chang'an is embarrassed to stay.

Lu Mo watched Lu Xiao and Zheng Dahai carefully carry the large wine jar containing grapes to the shed prepared in advance, and then went to the kitchen to prepare meals.Zheng Chang'an watched Lu Mo enter the kitchen and was about to help in the kitchen, but Lu Mo hurriedly stopped him.She is not the kind of bad mother-in-law who bullies her daughter-in-law. It is a good thing for her daughter-in-law to be diligent and capable in the future, but she can't just let her work.What's more, I haven't entered the door yet, how can I instruct others like this.After a few words of persuasion, Zheng Changan was asked to sit with Lu Xiao in the room.

Knowing that everyone has worked hard today, Lu Mo cut a large piece of bacon and stewed cabbage vermicelli, cooked ground three delicacies with beans, potatoes and eggplants, and scrambled six eggs with soy sauce.There are also stir-fried cabbage and spicy fried rabbit meat.It was Zheng Dahai who hunted the rabbit meat today and gave it to Lu's father as a taster.

In addition to the white wine that is usually sold at the entrance of the village, the wine is also the wine that was experimentally brewed before. Because the experiment was very successful, Lu Xiao dared to make so much at once.

Before, when he was collecting money, he also tried the wine from the small altar to the shopkeeper of the restaurant in the county.The shopkeeper was very satisfied, and ordered the wine to be brewed at the price of twelve silverstones per jug.

Except for the white sugar, this wine has basically no cost.Although the net profit was high, Lu Xiao still maintained his rationality.Without the slightest idea of ​​doing more, after all, we are weak.He even planned to sell Fangzi directly after selling this season, and use the money to do some business.

The most important thing now is to study with peace of mind and get a reputation.With fame and fame, you will be able to keep other more useful prescriptions later.As for this prescription, it is just a question of asking the way, to see if the owner behind the restaurant is worth long-term cooperation.
