Chapter 59
Xie Wuyu opened his eyes suddenly, a lot of fine sweat oozed from his forehead at some point, his heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.His eyes were blank for a moment, and when his breathing calmed down, Xie Wuyu looked at the familiar interior layout in front of him, heaved a sigh of relief, and let his body fall back on the bed.

Fortunately, it was just a dream, which scared her to death. She would still be scared when she dreamed of the scene of self-explosion and death in her previous life again. Although she lost consciousness for a moment, the pain of that moment made her terrified.

With a "squeak" the door was pushed open, Xie Wuyu saw Li Shi coming in with a bowl, and sat up suddenly again, a burst of dizziness struck, Xie Wuyu didn't stop him from yelling.

"That's right, you have a headache." Li Shi looked at her amusedly, "You've grown capable, and even brought your younger brothers and sisters to steal wine. Maybe our family will have a little drunkard."

"Aniang." Xie Wuyu covered his head and smiled embarrassingly, "What happened to Wuji and the others."

Mrs. Li handed her the hangover soup, nodded her head and said angrily: "What's more, they are all asleep. Originally, I didn't want your father and uncle to drink more, but it made it easier for you little bastards. "

Xie Wuyu held his breath and swallowed the strange soup, laughed dryly, changed the subject and said: "I think it would be fun to add strawberries and wine together, I want to try it, but I don't really want to take them to drink much. "

Mrs. Li smiled, and said casually: "Fruit wine is a good thing, but the kind you make can't be regarded as wine."

"Well, I'm just playing around..." Xie Wuyu also knew that he was fooling around, he nodded his head halfway but suddenly stopped, "What are you talking about, Ma'am? Could it be that Ma'am, you know how to make fruit wine?"

Mrs. Li nodded indifferently: "Yes, the method of fruit wine is simple, but everyone is barely full these days, who has the time to spend time making wine."

Li-shi lowered her head and met Xie Wuyu's shining eyes, and asked her inexplicably funny: "What? You want me to make fruit wine?"

Xie Wuyu nodded hastily: "Aniang, look at our family has so many strawberries. If we specialize in making strawberry wine, our family will have it in the future. What an advantage it is."

Indeed, strawberry is a wild fruit found in the mountains by accident, and Xie Wuyu brought it back to cultivate. Although it is not difficult to grow, it is not easy to grow it well. Dare to make a promise to Gu Ziqing.

But selling only one kind of fruit will definitely not last long. If you want to have a long-lasting business at home, it is necessary to increase the variety, otherwise it must be a brand that is conducive to spreading. From ancient times to the present, wine has always been a very good Best seller.

Xie Wuyu told Mrs. Li about his thoughts, and after hearing this, Mrs. Li looked thoughtful, "It's not impossible, you have to ask your father about this matter, he has been more concerned about this aspect recently. interested."

Xie Wuyu thought it was reasonable, jumped out of bed and wanted to find Xie Gui, but bumped into Xiao Ye at the door.

Seeing that Xie Wuyu woke up, Xiao Ye showed a bit of joy on his face: "Xiaoyu, you're awake, breakfast is ready, I was just about to call you."

Xie Wuyu was not in a hurry after being interrupted like this, she patted herself on the forehead, she was so excited before the thing was made, haste makes waste, don't be impatient.

Li Dan left in the afternoon, and Xie Wuji and Gu Ziyu were about to leave for the academy. Before leaving, Xie Wuyu's teeth were sore because of Xie Wuji's reluctance to part with him. In the end, she personally pulled him off the carriage and threatened him. After a while, she was sent to the academy so that she could see her brother every day.Xie Wuyou was so frightened that he immediately stopped howling, and looked at her aggrieved.

When Xie Gui returned home in the evening, he exuded a cheerful atmosphere, causing his family to look at him several times.

It wasn't until the family finished eating that they cheerfully took out a bulging money bag. Xie Wuyu looked up and saw Li Shi gave her a look, he immediately understood, and took Xiao Ye and Xie Wuyou back to the room early to pack and go to bed.

But when the two children were asleep, Li Shi came to look for her with a lamp again, Xie Wuyu sat up and looked at her mother curiously.

Mrs. Li touched her head and smiled softly: "Xiaoyu is our family's little lucky star. Since you recovered from your illness, good things have happened to our family one after another."

Xie Wuyu didn't speak, he seemed to feel something in his heart, but he blinked his eyes in confusion on his face.

Mrs. Li looked at her for a long time before starting to talk about business: "Your father will go to the village tomorrow to find some helpers. I heard from him that he can't take care of himself now that the business is getting bigger. It's better to ask for helpers earlier."

Xie Wuyu was still silent, just nodded.

Mrs. Li murmured: "Mother has a fruit wine recipe in her hand. Mother also told your father what you think. He thinks it is feasible. You can accompany mother tomorrow. Mother has a hunch..."

How do you say that?Although Xie Wuyu felt that she had some thoughts in her heart, but there are so many smart people in the world, her little thoughts are not even considered smart, so Li Shi believes in her so much, isn't she afraid that she will mess things up?

But having said that, it is the luckiest thing in her life that Li Shi and Xie Gui did not oppress her like most parents in the village or only cared about food and clothing.

The next day, Xie Wuyu was woken up by Xiao Ye.She has taken good care of her body recently, and her body has begun to develop. The most notable feature is that she is more lethargic than before.

But Xiao Ye would wake her up at about the same time every morning, and he never made a mistake.In this world without fine clocks and watches, Xie Wuyu has always been curious about how Xiao Ye woke her up on time.

After waking up and going to the yard, Xiao Ye had already prepared hot water, face towels, and tooth powder. If Xie Wuyu wasn't used to being waited on, Xiao Ye would definitely be able to do all these things for him.

Xie Wuyu said that he was also very helpless about this, maybe Xiao Ye really had some fledgling plot towards her, and he was always very clingy to her.Now I can't directly reject Xiao Ye forcefully, I am afraid that the child will not feel safe, so I can only wait for him to let go of his guard slowly.

The next thing was much simpler, Xie Wuyu and Xiao Ye followed Li Shi to pick strawberries in the backyard first, then carefully cleaned the strawberries, removed the stalks, put sugar, and poured them into a jar half the height of a person.

Li explained: "There are two ways to make fruit wine. One is to wash the fruit and soak it with high-concentration liquor for a period of time, and the other is what we are doing now, making wine directly with water and fruit. The method is cumbersome and error-prone.”

Xie Wuyu washed the strawberries and looked curiously at Mrs. Li, who was explaining how to make strawberry wine in detail. When Mrs. Li said the steps, his tone was soft, meticulous and patient, and his soft expression seemed to have magic power, which made people listen unconsciously More.

However, she had heard of the two wine making methods that Li Shi mentioned at the beginning, but the method she explained now seems to be a little different from the first two methods. Xie Wuyu is a good baby who asks when he doesn't understand, and immediately raised his hand: "Aniang, why is what you say now different from what you said before?"

Li's gentle smile lowered her eyebrows: "This is the secret recipe that mother told me. If you didn't listen carefully, I wouldn't tell you a second time."

Xie Wuyu was stunned for a moment, but looking at the smile on her mother's face, she realized that she was teasing them, Xie Wuyu shook his head with some emotion, he really didn't expect her mother to have such a lively side.

After teasing them, Mrs. Li said seriously: "Xiaoyu, of course someone taught mother the way of making wine. Mother was not willing to sell it even when our family was poor. If you didn't mention this, mother would not It is estimated that it will still eat ashes in the box. But since you said it, it proves that you and this prescription are destined, and you will be the successor of this prescription in the future, are you willing?"

"Ah?" Xie Wuyu looked confused, no, what happened just now?Why did you suddenly become so serious?

Mrs. Li cleared her throat: "In the past, I always felt that I buried this recipe. I'm sorry for the benefactor's entrustment, but I didn't expect you to be interested in wine making. I might as well leave it all to you, as long as you don't sell it. If you use it to do something outrageous, Mother can rest assured."

Xie Wuyu, who was getting more and more confused: "...?"

"Mom... what are you talking about?"

What benefactor?Isn't this a wine recipe? How could it be so harmful?

Li's pretty face suddenly became serious, as if hesitating, but also seemed to be weighing. After struggling in her heart for a while, she took out a blue booklet and placed it in front of Xie Wuyu.

Xie Wuyu widened his eyes slightly, staring blankly at the booklet in front of him.

The reason why it is called a pamphlet rather than a book is because this so-called brewing recipe is a circle smaller than ordinary books, and the thickness is also half thinner than normal books.The blue book cover looks similar to a normal book, it looks very old, half of the binding thread is off, and a corner of the book cover is missing, it is tattered, and it looks like no one will pick it up if it is thrown on the ground.

Subconsciously taking the book, Xie Wuyu realized that her hands were still wet, and the frizzy pages of the book were soaked to a small extent, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly put it on the ground.

It's strange to say that Mrs. Li just now seemed to value the booklet very much, but after handing it over to Xie Wuyu, she didn't care about it. When she saw that the book was wet, she didn't see it, but said to herself: "In the future, you It’s just that the wine recipe has been handed down for countless generations, I hope you will carry it forward and don’t disappoint the expectations of your mother and ancestors.”

"..." Xie Wuyu was a little confused, "Mother, is this a family heirloom of the Li family?"

Li retorted: "Of course not, this is a treasure, the only treasure left by my mother's benefactor, so it must be handled properly."

Xie Wuyu understood, it turned out to be a story of repaying kindness, she took a look at Xiao Ye who seemed to be out of shape, well, from this point of view, she and Li Shi are still very similar.

"Then why don't you inherit it yourself?"

Li Shi sighed quietly: "Didn't I find you?"

Xie Wuyu was full of doubts.

Li Shi simply said: "I have also learned, and I really know how to make wine, but I really don't like it. If I want to make wine, I have to stay in the wine making room. The smell of alcohol is all over my body. It smells too bad."

Xie Wuyu blinked and understood, but she was a little bit worried, and she asked slowly: "So, is it because Auntie thinks wine making is too bad, that's why she wants to teach me?"

Mrs. Li smiled softly: "How could it be, A Niang felt that you had a predestined relationship with this recipe, so she gave it to you with confidence. Don't disappoint A Niang's expectations."

Xie Wuyu sniffed and sighed helplessly.
