"Ayue, let's put it this way. When I get back, I'll have someone pick ripe loquats, cherries, and mulberries from the farm downstairs and send them to your house. As for the cooperation, I'll go back and tell my parents. If they don't agree, at worst, I can do it myself!"
After a long time, Huang Shaolan finally spoke, and said firmly.
"Huang Shaolan, why do I feel like you're going to break up with your parents?"
Fatty Xie teased.
"Get lost! Stop talking nonsense!" Huang Shaolan rolled her eyes at Fatty Xie, then looked at Cheng Yue and said, "Ayue, I'm going to tell you the truth. Actually, I prefer drinking! That wine isn't very intoxicating, and it has a unique flavor. I tried it once in Beijing two years ago, and I've wasted a lot of my grapes in the past two years."
Cheng Yue raised her eyebrows.
Wow, this Huang Shaolan is not simple!
According to the situation she just described, ordinary people cannot drink wine, but she can actually drink it once. Does this mean that the Huang family has rich and powerful relatives in Beijing?
"Oh, Ayue, don't think it's my family that's connected. It's actually the Xie family! I benefited from Fatty Xie's help that time."
Huang Shaolan knew what Cheng Yue was thinking as soon as she saw her and explained.
It turned out that Xie Yuchen had a second uncle who was a second-rank official. The Huang family went to the capital two years ago, and Huang Shaolan was engaged to Xie Yuchen, so Xie Yuchen's second aunt didn't treat Huang Shaolan as an outsider at all. It happened that the Xie family was entertaining a very important guest that day, so they took out the wine awarded by the emperor to entertain the guest.
After hearing this, Cheng Yue couldn't help but look at Fatty Xie.
"Hey, Cheng Yue, don't look at me like that. It's my second uncle who's in office, not me. Besides, my second uncle dislikes me because I'm fat and doesn't like me very much."
Fatty Xie felt embarrassed when Cheng Yue looked at him, scratched his head and said.
"Yes, yes, he is a fat guy! Ayue, let's talk about fruit wine! How much do I need to send to your house? Just give me a number so I can give you instructions!"
Huang Shaolan diverted Cheng Yue's attention and said.
"If all three kinds of fruit are ripe, pick as many as you can! Otherwise, they'll be gone in four days. Send it to me in four days. I still need to prepare the jar and other things."
Cheng Yue thought for a moment and said.
"A wine jar? I have one at home! Ayue, what size do you want? Just tell me the dimensions. If the ones in my winery don't fit the bill, I'll have one made for me. Also, tell me what other materials you need!"
Huang Shaolan is an impatient person and she feels she can't wait for four days.
"Shao Lan, how about this? Go back and ask your parents if they're willing to cooperate. If so, we can brew a large amount of wine while the fruits are ripe, because it will be hard to find them after the ripening period. Once this is confirmed, we can discuss what we need and the size of the vat. How about that?"
Cheng Yue thought for a moment and said.
"become!"
Huang Shaolan agreed without hesitation.
…
On the way back, Cheng Yue told Jiang and Cheng Jinxing about this matter.
Regardless of whether she cooperates or not, she does have the idea of making fruit wine. There's nothing she can do about it, she also likes it.
She is trying to lose weight now and cannot drink a lot of alcohol for the time being, but she will definitely be able to do it in a few months. Making wine takes time!
So, she hopes to have a drink and celebrate after she successfully loses weight.
