Chapter 102: Three Turns and Two Rings (Please Recommend)
But Mei Xue is in a dilemma now. Is she really not going to teach them how to make wine?
But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it.
On this day, Mei Xue took the lead and took three half-grown boys to pick wild grapes on their own mountain.
Because she wanted a lot, she spent the whole day picking. After having a quick lunch, everyone went back up the mountain.
When Grandma He saw the grapes in the yard, she quickly put them into the utility room, otherwise they would definitely be destroyed by the chickens in the yard.
It was not until the evening when Mei Xue came back with three people and there were no less than 100 kilograms of grapes in the house that Mei Xue stopped.
"Okay, we don't have to go tomorrow." Looking at so many grapes, Mei Xue said with a satisfied look on her face.
"Sister-in-law, you can't go even if you want to. We all have to go to school tomorrow." An Liang sat on the ground listlessly, holding a cup in his hand, drinking water while speaking.
"Ah, don't you have two days off?" Mei Xue really didn't know.
"How can it be two days? You're dreaming. It's just one and a half days, half a day on Friday and a whole day on Saturday. I have to go to school tomorrow morning." An Liang felt that going to school was really hard.
There is still so much homework to do. Thinking of this, An Liang cried: "Wow, sister-in-law, I haven't finished my homework yet."
Now it was Mei Xue's turn to feel embarrassed. After all, it was she who delayed them from doing their homework. "How about I help you with it?" The education at that time should not be as good as hers, right?
"Sister-in-law, can you do it?" An Liang smiled bitterly. "Forget it, it doesn't matter if I write it at night. As long as I can hand it in to the teacher tomorrow, it will be fine." At worst, he could just sleep less.
Mei Xue wanted to say that she would, but she swallowed the words that came to her lips, "Okay, I'll give you guys a good tonic tonight."
Grandma He was listening to the conversation between the few people and was very happy.
"To nourish you all, grandma made some bone soup for you today to nourish your brain." Grandma He's words were heartbreaking.
After having a good meal at Third Grandma’s house, the three of them hurried back home.
Mei Xue was not too tired, but seeing her grandmother busying around there, she felt a little distressed and said, "Grandma, you have worked hard today. I will be at home tomorrow, so you don't have to go to the fields." She had to water the vegetables this afternoon.
She filled the pool yesterday, but watering such a large area is not easy.
"It's okay, grandma can still work." It's not that tiring, she used to work often.
"Grandma is so great." She is coaxing the child.
With help from others, we have all the raw materials. Tomorrow we will wash and dry them, and then we can squeeze the grapes. These wild grapes are not as big as the grapes grown at home. They are only the size of a little finger. Even if they weigh about 100 kilograms, it would be good if we can fill three or four jars.
Grape wine is different from plum wine. Plum wine needs wine as a starter, while grape wine has to ferment on its own, otherwise it cannot be produced.
The next day, Mei Xue got up early in the morning, cleaned the house, fed the chickens and piglets, and then took out the grapes from the utility room to wash.
Fortunately, there is a shaking well in the yard, otherwise we would have to move to the back house, which would be very troublesome.
Grandma He was probably tired yesterday, so she got up a little late today. She didn't come out of the house until Mei Xue called her to have breakfast.
When they came out, Mei Xue clearly felt that there was something wrong with his foot.
"Grandma, does your leg hurt?" I asked as I saw my grandma walking unsteadily.
Grandma He held onto the door frame and said, "It's gone." She waved her hands and said, "It's not painful. It's probably because I haven't done so much work in a long time, so my legs are a little sore." Grandma He didn't lie to Xiaoxue.
"After you got married, you told me yourself, how long has it been since grandma did any heavy work?" After saying this, Grandma He looked very happy.
Mei Xue was happy, "Then grandma, you should rest more recently and don't run down the mountain. Come, I'll help you." Grandma is so cute.
At the breakfast table, Mei Xue asked An Wen about his blind date.
"I heard that the girl is pretty good-looking. As for her personality, your Aunt Xilian thinks she's acceptable. She's not the kind of person who would be picky or show off. As for her character, the matchmaker said she's not bad." Grandma He said while eating.
"Can we trust the matchmaker's words?" Mei Xue was a little confused. As a matchmaker, she would definitely not say that the person she introduced was bad. She would usually say good things about the person.
"Don't worry about that. The matchmaker is your grandmother Meng's wife. When you see her, you have to call her Aunt Yanzi. The girl is from her mother's family, but she has a lot of brothers." Of course, Grandma He found out everything.
"Oh, has Anwen chosen one?" Since there are villagers guaranteeing it, it should not be too bad.
"Anwen is like a piece of wood. He dares not say a word when he sees people." Speaking of this, Grandma He felt that he had no future.
Alas, he is not as good as that kid An Liang at all.
Aunt Xilian complained about these things to Grandma He after she came back, mainly because she wanted to hear Third Aunt's opinion.
"Then he must know whether he likes her or not." Mei Xuefang.
"He must have liked her, otherwise he wouldn't have said nothing." Grandma He acted like a fortune teller.
"Okay then, if you like him, we'll have a happy event before the New Year." When it comes to marriage, Mei Xue prefers to watch other people get married.
"Let's wait and see. It's still early."
After breakfast, Mei Xue and Grandma He were washing grapes in the yard.
But not long after, Aunt Xilian and Aunt Meilian came over.
"Why are you here? There's a big market tomorrow. Why are you coming here instead of making osmanthus cake at home?" Grandma He asked with a puzzled look on her face when she saw the people coming.
"Oh, you just came to ask Aunt San for some advice." Aunt Xilian responded quickly.
This is her family's business, so she has to speak out.
"What's the matter?" Grandma He asked without retreating.
"What else could it be? It's Anwen's marriage." Aunt Meilian came here mainly to listen to the news.
Aunt Xilian also nodded, "Zhengxi and I are a little undecided about this matter, so I want to ask Aunt San."
After Mei Xue called the two of them, she just listened from the side.
"Then tell me."
It turned out that he had received a reply from the girl's family.
But the reply to this letter was really fast.
The reason was that the girl's third brother wanted to get married, but the family didn't have much money. Marriage now is not like before, when you could just give some food to marry a wife. Now it takes a lot of effort.
That's all money. Who can come up with so much money?
It used to be better to need tickets, as they were not so expensive, but now tickets are no longer needed and those things are extremely expensive. What’s more, the sound nowadays is not a watch, but a TV.
This thing is so expensive, who can afford it?
So the Li family started to target my younger sister.
The girl from the Li family is also very capable. After knowing her family's plan, she did not resist and decided to go on a blind date. As long as the guy is someone she likes, she would accept him.
It's better than being sold out by her family in the end. If she doesn't leave a way out for herself early, hard days will be ahead.
From this we can see that the girl from the Li family is a smart one.
