"These grapes really don't taste good, so why is the wine made from them so delicious?"

"Isn't that amazing?"

"It's truly amazing."

We picked for an hour.

The baskets on their backs were soon full.

We returned to the courtyard with the picked grapes.

Gu Xuan prepared the containers and other brewing materials.

"Please help us separate the grape seeds from the pulp; we only need the pulp."

"good."

One person took a small knife and instructed them to preserve the fruit flesh without breaking it apart.

Remove the pits and trim any loose branches; no washing is required.

Preserve the outermost layer of bloom on the grapes.

Gu Xuan carefully placed the prepared grapes into the mixture, added honey, and fermented it using traditional methods.

Seal it once it's ready.

Complete all the work.

Gu Xuan said.

"After these steps are completed, you will have to wait a while before you can drink it."

One of the guests was a little disappointed.

"I thought I could drink it soon."

Gu Xuan answered with a smile.

"The wine needs to be fermented, and there are other processes after that before it can be drunk. But if you want to drink the wine I made before, I still have some. I'll give you some so we can have some together at noon."

"That's fine."

Teacher Huang and Teacher He also agreed.

"Teacher Huang said."

"Go get the wine, I'll go cook."

"good."

Just as Gu Xuan was about to leave, Director Wang stopped him.

"You can only get drinks after you work."

"It's not that the work is finished."

"That's not enough to exchange for wine."

"We've already prepared the wine; we just need to wait a while. There's no need to delay."

"No, that's the rule."

Gu Xuan was somewhat helpless.

"I'll take two bottles, and once the brewing is complete, I'll return four bottles to you."

"That won't work either."

Director Wang is a bit stubborn.

"This is all because I've been tricked before, so I'm very defensive now."

"Let's get a bottle and try it. The main thing is to let these guests taste it. We can't let them make it and then not know what it tastes like."

Director Wang thought about it.

I think that makes some sense.

"Okay, but you can't take too much."

"rest assured."

Gu Xuan drove back.

Wanwan saw it from afar and quickly followed.

"What's wrong, Wanwan?"

"Follow."

"good."

They took Wanwan to Lengquan Xiaozhu in the car.

These past two days, Wanwan has been playing by herself, occasionally appearing in the frame.

He will not feel insecure as long as he can see Gu Xuan.

He even had honey accompany him.

I went back and got two bottles of wine.

I drove back to the Plum Blossom Courtyard.

The aroma of food was already wafting from the kitchen.

Gu Xuan placed the two bottles of red wine he had received on the table.

Director Wang said this immediately after seeing it.

"Two bottles won't do, that's a bit too many."

"There are still so many people here."

"That won't do either. Just one bottle to taste it is enough."

Teacher He also came to stop them.

"There are many of us."

Pengpeng also stood in front of them.

"No, it's a deal, just one bottle, otherwise the food exchange rate will be halved in the future."

Under Director Wang's threat, only one bottle was ultimately left.

When it was time to eat, a bottle of red wine was opened, and everyone poured a little.

After several people tasted it...

"It tastes good."

"This red wine has a very unique flavor."

"Indeed, Brother Xuan's wine is exceptional."

The guy with low emotional intelligence also spoke up.

"Not bad, but not quite as good as the famous wines I've had before."

This person speaks without thinking.

Saying whatever comes to mind.

Many people here have tried it, and they all think it's better than those famous wines.

This person said it on purpose.

He has absolutely no ability to distinguish between good and bad.

The others ignored him completely, and continued talking about the red wine in their hands.

The food on the table was gradually decreasing.

Until the red wine is finished.

The group wasn't quite satisfied with their drinks.

Teacher He said.

"It feels like something's missing without that bottle."

After speaking, he looked at Director Wang.

Teacher Huang also looked up.

"Old Wang, hurry up and give us that bottle."

Director Wang did not back down at all.

"no."

"Not good enough, or I'll beat you up."

Teacher Huang made a move to get up and hit him, but Gu Xuan stopped him.

"Don't worry, Teacher Huang."

"You have a way."

"I didn't get to drink my fill."

"certainly."

Gu Xuan turned to look at Director Wang.

Director Wang frowned.

"Don't look at me, no, absolutely not."

"By the way, Director Wang, you said earlier that we should drink a bottle, right?"

"right."

Gu Xuan turned to ask the others.

"Have you been drinking?"

The guests were a little confused when the question was asked, but they didn't say anything and just watched Gu Xuan's performance.

Teacher Huang realized what was happening.

"When did we drink alcohol? We didn't drink alcohol, we were just drinking water."

After Teacher Huang said that, the others realized what was going on.

Teacher He.

"We didn't drink alcohol, we drank water."

"That's right, it's water."

Pengpeng shouted.

"Director Wang, we've got our drinks, we're waiting to drink them."

"Yes, Director Wang, please give us back our red wine."

"That's right."

This left Director Wang somewhat at a loss.

He never expected Gu Xuan to be so shameless.

Completely disregarding their image, they led the way in telling lies after drinking.

Director Wang was completely baffled.

But he still couldn't give it to him.

He said.

“You’ve all finished drinking, and you’re still asking me for more.”

"We didn't drink it at all; we didn't even see it."

"I didn't see what the bottle at your feet was."

“What could this be? These kinds of bottles are quite common here. It’s just a bottle and doesn’t mean anything. I just want our red wine. We want to drink red wine.”

This immediately enlivened the atmosphere among the guests.

"Director Wang, you can't go back on your word. Where's the wine we were promised? Bring it out now."

Director Wang was now at a loss for words.

"Not from your area."

Gu Xuan added fuel to the fire.

"Director Wang, hurry up, we're waiting. Didn't you take it?"

This put Director Wang in a bit of a dilemma.

Giving it to me would be against the rules, but not giving it to me is currently impossible to explain.

After much deliberation, I finally gave it to them.

There was nothing we could do; Gu Xuan had found another loophole.

The group happily accepted the wine.

Keep drinking.

Director Wang shook his head helplessly.

"It's always the same."

Wang Dao was utterly speechless.

Although he could refuse to give it, he didn't know what would happen afterward.

While he still had control, he gave it to her directly.

The group continued drinking.

Their faces were all smiles.

Director Wang's face was full of worry.

Soon, the group finished their bottle.

Director Wang breathed a sigh of relief after seeing it.

"Finally finished drinking."

But as soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xuan took out a bottle of red wine from his backpack.

"no."

Director Wang was utterly speechless.

The others were also taken aback when they saw it.

Teacher Huang was also very surprised.

"No, how did you manage to hide it from Director Wang?"

"It's not difficult at all. Just put two bottles in your bag and let them check them. Then hide the other bottle a little. After they've finished checking, I'll just take the hidden one away."

"You're so smart."

However, Director Wang was no longer calm.

"No, you can't drink it, you're breaking the rules."

“But we didn’t drink any just now, this is the first bottle.”

Director Wang was getting a little impatient.

"You're still trying to pull this on me, huh? Let's watch the replay."

"Okay, you can bring it up."

"Okay, I'll adjust it for you right away."

Director Wang removed the video.
