"Okay, I'll go ask the elders. Let's go get the wine first. My family is in the brewery."
Zhang Jianguo agreed immediately, not for the thank you medicine, he just wanted to teach Ning Xiyue.
The life-saving grace is greater than any other favor, and teaching how to brew wine is a small matter. In this life, he wants to be Sister Yue's younger brother, to be her servant at her beck and call, and he is willing to do anything where he can be used.
He has decided to be the younger brother. No matter whether Sister Yue recognizes him or not, he will recognize Sister Yue as the big sister for life.
"Okay, let's go."
Hearing this, Zhang Jianguo happily led the way. He was not worried at all that his family would object.
When his family knew that he was able to save his life because of Sister Yue's medicine, their gratitude to Sister Yue was like an endless torrent of water, and they believed in her words. Now if they knew that Sister Yue wanted to learn how to make wine, they would definitely be willing to teach her and would even give her the secret recipe with both hands.
Zhang Jianguo took Ning Xiyue from the front yard to the back yard. The back yard was very large, the sum of several front yards, and was backed by a small hill.
There is a separate small house at the upper right corner of the innermost part of the hill. It can be said to be independent and does not belong to the backyard because the house is about 100 meters away from the yard.
When Ning Xiyue walked to the backyard, she smelled a faint sweet aroma of wine yeast in the air.
When she walked outside the small house, the smell of wine in the air became stronger, and she even smelled the smell of fermented glutinous rice, which was very pleasant. She was looking forward to the ten kilograms of glutinous rice wine, but she didn't know what it would taste like.
Ning Xiyue looked carefully at the house in front of her.
Looking from the outside, all the doors and windows of the house were sealed with nylon bags, leaving no gaps at all.
There is actually a circle of trees planted around to purify the air and isolate the odor, and the trees on the top of the hill help with purification, which is why you can't smell much alcohol when standing in the front yard.
One reason is that the place for brewing wine is far away, and the other is that there are obstacles such as mountains and trees in the middle, which have been purified.
So you could only occasionally smell a faint scent of alcohol in the front yard.
"How's it going, Sister Yue? Doesn't it smell a bit intoxicating?" Zhang Jianguo pointed to the house and said, "This is where my family usually makes wine."
"It's not intoxicating, and the air smells quite fragrant." Ning Xiyue sniffed and said, "I can smell the scent of sorghum liquor."
"Great! Today we're brewing sorghum wine."
Zhang Jianguo gave a thumbs up in surprise. The sorghum was brought over for brewing yesterday by the secretary. It had just been soaked and boiled, and it hadn't been long before Sister Yue could smell the flavor just by her nose. She must have some talent. It seemed that Sister Yue was very suitable for learning how to brew wine. He had to teach her well and not waste Sister Yue's talent.
"Sister Yue, let's go in. Your wine is inside."
"Can I go in now?" Ning Xiyue pointed at herself and asked Zhang Jianguo, a little surprised that Zhang Jianguo trusted her so much.
Smelling the aroma and seeing the white smoke, she knew that wine was being brewed inside.
Isn't this kid afraid that she might steal his skills or do something bad? She has a photographic memory, and she can engrave the scene in her mind with just one look, so it's easy for her to do anything she wants.
"You can go in, it's okay, let's go." Zhang Jianguo nodded and invited her again. He was very confident in her. If he couldn't trust Sister Yue, then there was no one else he could trust.
"good."
Since things have come to this, Ning Xiyue would certainly not refuse. She would follow Zhang Jianguo in. Even if she failed to learn it in the end, it would be a good thing to have the opportunity to see the inside of an old winery in reality.
After entering, Ning Xiyue saw everyone busy inside. Zhang Jianguo’s parents and grandparents were all busy inside.
Some were making fire, some were steaming sorghum, and some were standing aside watching the situation.
The temperature inside is much higher than outside. Once you come in, it feels as warm as if you had entered a heated room.
Zhang Jianguo walked in and shouted, "Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, my sister Yue is here."
Everyone who was busy in the room looked up, and when they saw Ning Xiyue, their faces were filled with welcoming smiles. They greeted Ning Xiyue one after another, and Ning Xiyue also greeted them back with a smile.
Zhang Jianguo's father, Zhang Datou, is a typical honest farmer with dark skin and a sincere smile on his face. He is steaming sorghum there.
"Doctor Xiao Ning, I can't leave my hands here. Please sit for a while. I'll ask Aunt Wu to help you get some wine."
"Okay, you go ahead and do your work." Ning Xiyue shook her head indifferently, then saw Aunt Wu standing up: "Aunt, thank you for your help."
"Of course I'll get it for you right away." After saying that, Aunt Wu went to the cellar with Zhang Jianguo's grandmother to get the wine.
Zhang Jianguo found a stool and placed it in front of Ning Xiyue: "Sister Yue, please sit down. I'm going to talk to my family first and call you when I'm done."
"OK."
Ning Xiyue sat on the bench, her eyes focused on the front, not glancing around at all.
Zhang Jianguo first went to talk to his grandfather, and after a minute he went to stand next to his father, but the sound of the hand-pulled bellows in the winery never stopped, and the rumbling sound was very ear-piercing.
Ning Xiyue only heard the sound of the bellows and knew nothing else. She didn't look at the expressions of the two people, but she felt that their gazes were always on her. She didn't know what their attitude was.
However, Ning Xiyue remained calm and composed. It was not her time to take the stage yet, so there was no rush.
