Qing Palace: Biography of Concubine Shu

Chapter 215 Brewing Fruit Wine
In the afternoon, Shu Yun leaned on the rattan chair, staring at the vines in a daze, while Su Yan was cleaning the glazed jar beside him. After a while, Shu Yun was going to make some wine.

In the palace, grape trellises were planted in several places in the palace, and basically no one used them because the grapes were spoiled.

Shu Yun's courtyard is different, as long as it is grown in the courtyard to eat, it will be cleaned up, Yin Zhen didn't say much, just follow Shu Yun's wishes.

Both Fujin and the nuns around her thought that Shu Yun was a little petty, otherwise, she wouldn't have put away those things that should have been thrown away, and she would have put them away.

"Su Yan, clean up the grapes, the bamboos have been cut, and the pomegranates have been picked!" Shu Yun thought it was interesting, the pomegranate tree in the courtyard only produced fifteen pomegranates.

She said that she planned to pick all the pomegranates and make fruit wine together, so that she could drink some in winter.

"Master, do you want to make fruit wine?" Su Zhu asked.

Shu Yun nodded, and she specially asked Su Zhu to go to the imperial dining room to order Wuweiguo, and planned to make this into fruit wine.

"Let's make more, and prepare to keep them for the winter." Shu Yun pondered for a while, and planned to buy a jar of fruit wine in the back room. These are all his labor income!

There are only so many divisions, the amount of fruit wine is very small, and the female relatives can get even less.

Sometimes, these concubines of theirs are not available at all, and they can only use them during the Chinese New Year and gatherings.

"Of course, it doesn't matter if we don't have the quota for the fruit wine we prepare during the Chinese New Year!" Shu Yun looked at the grape rack above his head, "Bring the sugar here!"

Suzhu cleaned the five-flavored fruit on purpose and put it in the glass jar, and poured the rest into the white wine to fill the glass jar. She walked over and sprinkled some sugar on top of the wine jar.

"This is going to be buried in the earth pit behind the room, you know?" Shu Yun deliberately explained to the servant.

The little maids have been busy, the two jars of Wuweiguo fruit wine have been carried away, the pomegranates have been peeled off, the grapes have been stored in wooden barrels, everything is ready, and the servants in the courtyard have basically been mobilized stand up.

When evening approached, when Yinzhen came back from the courtyard, he happened to see Shu Yun sitting on the rattan chair, commanding all the servants and servants to pack up the fruit wine, and Su Zhu had already prepared dinner early.

"Little boy...why are you making a fuss?" Yinzhen was a little surprised, those glazed jars were specially prepared by him from the inside.

"Master, I've prepared fruit wine." Shu Yun said quickly.

Yinzhen froze for a moment, fruit wine? !During the festival, there are very few fruit wines, so Shu Yun directly made fruit wine. When the Spring Festival comes, Shu Yun will not have to worry about it here.

"How about giving me another jar when the wine is ready?!" Yinzhen encouraged Shu Yun to prepare more things, "Give me a jar of everything."

Shu Yun nodded: "Okay, I prepared it for you!"

When the fruit wine is ready, the glass jar will be able to see a beautiful color, which makes Shu Yun look forward to it very much.

"Little boy, let's have dinner first, and let the servants do all of this." Shu Yun was in charge of the planning, and the servants began to prepare all kinds of fruit wine they liked.

Shu Yun followed Yinzhen into the dining room. At this time, the dinner table was already full of dinner, and Su Peisheng followed behind the two, ready to serve at any time.

After dinner, Yinzhen went to the study and started working on the book for the day, while Shu Yun went to the courtyard to look at the fruit wine made by the servants.

"Su Zhu, you and Su Yan take turns to have dinner, let the people below do the cooking." Shu Yun didn't want the slaves around him to fall ill.

There are only two maids serving Ge Ge, if one of them gets sick, the other one will definitely take over all the work.

Suzhu and Suyan quickly agreed, other Gege would never do this.

"You also divide into two groups. One group goes to have dinner with Su Zhu, and the other group stays where Su Zhu and others come back. The other group will go again and let the small dining room prepare some supper. If you can't rest , Leave the group of people on duty to use supper." Shu Yun made a special arrangement, after all, brewing fruit wine is a labor-intensive job, and it is also possible to prepare some supper for them.

"Thank you, master!" The servants were grateful.

They often contacted the slaves who were trained together, and they complained about their masters one after another. Some concubines, who seemed gentle, were bitter and mean in private.

When they were assigned, they were glad that they had gone under a kind master. Now, they are all punished, and there are more or less scars on their bodies.

On the other hand, they were sent to Shu Shujue Luo's courtyard, where they were taught by the nuns not to force themselves.

"The servant feels that he is right with the master!" The second-class maid said from the side.

The slaves lowered their heads, but they agreed with what the little maid said in their hearts. Some maids who combed themselves felt much more comfortable. In the courtyards of Li Gege and Song Gege, the lives of the slaves were worthless, and they were sacrificed to gain benefits. The two masters would not It will hurt.

Shu Shu felt that Luo Gege was usually indifferent, but when something happened, he was a caring master and his heart was warm.

After explaining everything, Shu Yun walked into the study, and Yinzhen looked up at her.

"Little boy, just let Suzhu come in to take orders, and you don't need to go there to tell him!" Yinzhen glanced at Shu Yun, and was about to tell Shu Yun how to be a good master.

Shu Yun is still young and doesn't know how to be a master. Yinzhen has been quietly teaching Shu Yun how to give orders. After a few years, Shu Yun will have to support the child.

"Master, I understand, don't make an example!" Shu Yun didn't take it to heart. In fact, if she went to tell her personally, the effect would be even greater.

Yinzhen shook her head helplessly. From now on, if he made a black face and Shu Yun made a red face, even if she had a stern face, she would not be able to suppress all the servants.

Few of the servants of the aristocratic families in the Household Department could do what Shu Yun did.

"If it's those from the family of the House of Internal Affairs, your actions like this will only backfire, and they think you are easier to bully." Yinzhen specially told Shu Yun what the slaves from the family of the House of Internal Affairs did.

Some time before they were assigned to the courtyard, they would specially observe the master's disposition. If Shu Yun had such a temper, they would test him step by step. If Shu Yun acquiesced, they would make progress.

"I'll pay attention to it in the future, Lord, don't worry, brewing fruit wine is a physical effort, if you don't have enough food, the brewed wine won't taste good." Shu Yun said hastily.

Yinzhen doesn't talk anymore, Shu Yun will do as usual, Su Zhu and Su Yan are slowly being cultivated to help Shu Yun build up his prestige.
