Chapter 82 – Ruo-er can even make wine.

“It’s plum wine, brewed by the eldest sister herself, I’m just borrowing the flowers.” Wei Jin also explained.

The crowd looked at Wei Ruo in surprise, while Wei Ruo calmly looked at the dishes in front of him.

Ergo had consulted her before doing this.

She originally did not intend to offer this solicitude to Wei Mingting, but that altar of wine had been opened last time, and the flavor ran away when it was left for a long time without drinking.

And that altar of wine is still almost full, last time because of the second brother drunk, drank not two cups on the shelf, coupled with Wei Ruo himself is not passionate about wine, usually nothing is not going to drink, put on the waste.

The second brother said that his father loved wine but was not addicted to it, so it was a good use of his time to give him a taste.

Adding to the fact that her second brother had opened his mouth to mention it to her, she couldn’t afford to refute her second brother’s wishes, so she didn’t say anything.

“Ruo’er still knows how to make wine?” Wei Mingting’s gaze fell on Wei Ruo.

“Know some, casually brewed.” Wei Ruo casually replied.

“Then my father will have to have a good taste of it.” Wei Mingting said.

When people are happy and happy, the big stone of the Japanese invaders has fallen down temporarily, Wei Mingting’s wine worms will come out.

Upon hearing this, Yun busily had someone pour Wei Mingting a cup, and then poured wine for the other few people present except for Wei Yi Lin, who was still young.

Drinking is an elegant thing, so on such a celebratory occasion, Yun allowed her older children to drink.

Wei Mingting took the lead and tasted it, then a look of surprise appeared on his face, “Ruo’er, is this wine really brewed by you?”

“Uh-huh.” Wei Ruo responded in a salty manner.

“This wine is really good, sweet and light, with a strong wine flavor and a fruity aroma as well.” Wei Mingting commented.

Hearing Wei Mingting comment like this, Yun and Wei Yi Chen both took a sip as well.

Both of them showed the same look of surprise.

“Ruo’er this wine is well brewed, it’s actually more pure and sweet than what the wine shops in the county sell.” Wei Yi Chen commented.

Pure and sweet probably because Wei Ruo used the distillation method of purification, so the wine is fragrant and pure, as transparent as water.

And a lot of wine in this era, especially some small workshops brewing process on the rough some, out of the liquor is relatively to cloudy some.

Yun also couldn’t help but praise, “Ruo’er’s hands are so skillful, it’s the first time I’ve ever drank such a wine that isn’t ferociously strong yet mellow.”

Listening to the crowd’s compliments to Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan glanced down at the wine cup in front of her, then tentatively took a sip.

She didn’t drink much, and there weren’t too many opportunities for her to drink during the week, so she didn’t know as much about alcohol as her parents and older siblings did, about it.

But Wei Qingwan can feel that this wine is really not bad, sweet and refreshing taste can be tasted out, suddenly the heart is not taste up.

She raised her head to look at Wei Ruo, a smile still on her face, and praised with the others, “Sister is really good, it seems like nothing is hard for sister, compared to sister, I am really too useless.”

“How could Wanwan be useless, Wanwan has something that Wanwan is good at.” Yun was busy saying.

“That’s right, sis, brewing wine isn’t something for a lady of the house, isn’t that something those sweaty brew masters in the small workshops out there should be doing?” Wei Yi Lin busily said.

“Yi Lin, what are you talking about?” Wei Mingting had a serious expression.

Wei Yi Lin was very afraid of Wei Ming Ting, and when Wei Ming Ting’s expression became serious, he immediately hung his head and didn’t dare to squeak.

On weekdays when Wei Mingting is not around, he will sometimes say a few words to secretly denigrate Wei Ruo like today, and no one in the family is angry, so he has become accustomed to it.

“If it’s an unintentional remark then so be it, if it’s an intentional slander to disrespect your big sister, you don’t need to eat this meal today, get lost and go stand in the yard!” Wei Mingting said in a cold voice.

Upon hearing this Yun hastened to help her youngest son plead for mercy, “Yi Lin should have made an unintentional mistake, Husband don’t be angry.”

Wei Yi Lin hung his head low and nodded gently.

Only after seeing this did Wei Mingting not pursue the matter further.

Wei Yi Chen explains to Wei Yi Lin on the side, “Yi Lin, the craft of brewing is not as crude and shallow as you think, a good brewing recipe is usually a secret recipe passed down from generation to generation of a family, and there is an Imperial Wine Workshop in the palace, which has a brewing master with an official position.”

“Got it ……,” Wei Yi Lin replied in a small voice.

In fact, he also knows what big brother said, he just said that just don’t want sister Wanwan to be compared to Wei Qingruo.

The rest of Wei Jin also just pretended to taste a mouthful, in fact, half a drop did not drink into the mouth, Wei Ruo saw it, and also knew that after the lesson of the last time, he now will never easily touch the wine, even this kind of fruit wine that is not strong.

After a meal was finished, a jar of wine also saw the bottom, most of which Wei Mingting drank, the rest of the few people just sipped a few mouthfuls.

And for Wei Mingting’s drinking capacity, this fruit wine, not to mention an altar, even if it comes to seven or eight altars he can not get drunk.

He loves wine, but when there are official duties resolutely dripping wine, now a great victory, celebrating at home, is a few years very rare drinking opportunity, there is a jar of good wine, drink incomparably happy.

When the show was over, Wei Mingting unexpectedly took the initiative to ask Wei Ruo for a drink: “If Ruo’er brews wine next time, she’ll also give father a taste, okay?”

Wei Ruo couldn’t refuse, so she said, “Okay, I’ll rush father’s share next time I brew.”

Next time I don’t know when to brew again, just brewed wine can’t drink immediately, but also put on a long time, so Wei Mingting want to drink her next brewed wine don’t know when to wait.

As for the several jars still stored inside her warehouse, Wei Mingting only said it was for the next brewing, not the ones that were already there, so naturally there was no need to take them out.

Wei Mingting said, “Good, then my father will wait for Ruo’er’s next fine wine.”

After the banquet was dispersed, the people left the dining hall one after another, and Wei Ruo had just walked out of the door of the dining hall when Wei Qingwan walked towards her.

Wei Qingwan took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Wei Ruo and presented her with a purse that she had embroidered herself:

“Sister, this purse is embroidered by me and is given to sister. I’m not as capable as sister, I only know how to embroider, so I hope sister won’t mind.”

Wei Ruo turned her head to look at Wei Qingwan and did not reach out to pick it up.

Seeing Wei Ruo’s hesitation, Wei Qingwan explained, “Sister’s teaching words on the day of the Beggar’s Day have been memorized by my sister, but I couldn’t think of any good method to express my sincerity with my sister for a while, so I embroidered a wallet first to show my sincerity.”

Wei Ruo’s gaze sharply scrutinized Wei Qingwan, and Wei Qingwan didn’t know if it was because she was weak or something else, she lowered her head down and avoided meeting Wei Ruo’s gaze.

“Good, then I’ll take it.” Wei Ruo suddenly reached out and took the purse.

Immediately after that, Wei Ruo saw Wei Yi Chen coming out from inside the dining hall and turned her hand to give him the purse.

“Ruo’er, what is this?” Wei Yi Chen looked at Wei Ruo suspiciously.
