The next day, Uncle Qin and Father Qin brought the grapes early in the morning.
Also delivered was a small jar of honey, which looked like it weighed about two or three pounds.
"Dad, uncle, where does this honey come from?"
Honey is really a scarce thing in this day and age. To put it another way, sugar is so expensive, let alone honey.
So, when Jia Dongsheng saw this small jar of honey, his eyes lit up. There was no other way. Drinking some honey every day would be of great benefit to pregnant women.
"It was the hunter from our village who found two beehives in the mountains. They produced over five kilograms of honey. We thought Jingru was pregnant, so we bought some from him."
Uncle Qin felt Jia Dongsheng's joy, which made him feel that everything he had done was not in vain.
There is no way. Both girls in the family have married into the Jia family, and Jia Dongsheng is a capable man, so of course he has to maintain a good relationship.
"So the hunter still has honey?"
Jia Dongsheng's eyes lit up, and he asked with a smile, "Can you buy the remaining honey as well?"
"this......"
Uncle Qin and Father Qin looked at each other and shook their heads: "We can't buy it. The hunter has a daughter-in-law who is pregnant."
"Forehead......"
Hearing this answer, Jia Dongsheng felt a little disappointed, but he recovered immediately.
He had forgotten about the honey before, but now, after being reminded by this small jar, he thought that if he wanted to look for it, he should still be able to buy it.
Thinking this, he said, "Uncle, after you go back, can you help me find someone who still has honey? I'll take as much as you can. Three or five pounds is not too little, and dozens of pounds is not too much."
"You want that much?"
Such a huge number surprised Uncle Qin: "Dongsheng, why did you buy dozens of kilograms of honey?"
"Eat."
Jia Dongsheng casually replied: "I am a chef. Honey can not only be mixed with water for drinking, but also used in cooking. It has many benefits."
"Okay then. When I get back, I'll go to other nearby villages to see if anyone has a beehive."
Uncle Qin nodded and agreed. After all, he was the deputy captain of Qinjiagou Commune, and he was in charge of more than ten brigades.
If you really want to find it, it’s not difficult.
If you want to buy honey, you have to rely on luck.
"Uncle, I don't know how many people sell honey. I'll give you a hundred yuan first. If it's not enough, you can help me pay for it first."
As he said that, Jia Dongsheng took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Uncle Qin.
Looking at the money in front of him, Uncle Qin looked embarrassed. "Dongsheng, what are you doing? I haven't bought anything yet, so how can I ask you for money first? Wait until I buy it. Then you can pay me."
"Uncle, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you give it to me first or later. Just use the money first."
Without giving Uncle Qin a chance to refuse, he simply put the money into his pocket, and then turned his attention to the baskets of grapes on the carriage.
The grapes of wild grapes are not very big, but each bunch is plump and you can tell they are good grapes at first glance.
But wild grapes are indeed sour. Jia Dongsheng also tasted the two baskets that were delivered before. He originally thought that if the taste was good, he would develop a dish with wild grapes to improve Qin Jingru's taste.
But it's too sour.
Although it tastes good, it is too sour and is not suitable for cooking at all, so I had to give it up.
"Dongsheng, where do you think we should unload these grapes?"
"Don't leave them at home. I'll go in and get the other two baskets and take them away."
Jia Dongsheng then returned home, carrying two baskets of grapes, one in each hand, and placed them on the carriage. He then went to get his bicycle and said, "Uncle, let's go to Qianmen Street."
"Qianmen Street?"
Uncle Qin was stunned for a moment, but didn't say much. He got on the carriage, raised the whip, and the carriage slowly set off.
Soon, they arrived outside the tavern.
"Dongsheng, is this your shop?" Uncle Qin asked in surprise, looking at the sign of Qianmen Tavern.
"It's not mine, it's my sister's shop."
Seeing Uncle Qin's misunderstanding, Jia Dongsheng explained: "There is a place here where we can make wine, so put the grapes here. When I get off work in the evening, I can make wine directly."
"Oh, so that's how it is!"
Uncle Qin and Father Qin nodded, looking as if they understood. Jia Dongsheng didn't say anything more and started moving.
"Hey, Dongsheng, why are you here?"
When Xu Huizhen, who was cleaning the pub with others, saw Jia Dongsheng coming, she was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Sister Huizhen, my father-in-law and uncle sent me some wild grapes. I plan to make wine."
Jia Dongsheng gestured to Xu Huizhen to look at the two baskets of grapes in his hands. While speaking, he also introduced Uncle Qin and Father Qin to Xu Huizhen.
When Xu Hui heard that it was the father of Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru, she felt a little uneasy. Fortunately, after doing business for so many years, she still had the ability to speak differently to different people.
This prevented Uncle Qin and Father Qin from realizing that Xu Huizhen was guilty, and also prevented them from realizing that Xu Huizhen and Jia Dongsheng had a relationship other than just sworn siblings.
After unloading the grapes, Uncle Qin and Father Qin left directly without staying for dinner.
The hot pot meal two days ago really scared the two of them. Although it was delicious, it was too expensive.
They were afraid that if they stayed for dinner, it would be a waste if Jia Dongsheng took them out for another meal. If they used all the money to buy food, how many days would it take to eat?
