Chapter 386 Autumn is here, and the harvest of mountain products is abundant



Time flies and it's Sunday again.

These days, Sha Zhu has been in a state of panic, always worrying that the police will suddenly show up at the factory and take him away, and then he will lose his job and have to drink free porridge.

But in the end, things did not turn out in a bad direction.

I don’t know why, maybe the person who opened the door halfway is really a principled service staff who will do the job if you pay him.

Anyway, Sha Zhu was not given away, so he lived safely until Sunday. The factory was even considering adding more responsibilities to his family and letting him work as a kitchen foreman in Canteen No. 8.

Upon hearing the news, Jia Dongsheng could only sigh that Sha Zhu was lucky and the matter was completely over.

After breakfast, Jia Dongsheng sent Banggeng to Wenli to continue his tutoring.

And talked to Wenli about continuing to give Banggeng questions and tests.

Wenli was very willing to do this and said that she would definitely teach Banggeng well and test him.

Listening to his second uncle and teacher's words, Banggeng wanted to die. His hopeless state even made Jia Dongsheng laugh.

"Good job, study hard. I'll pick you up in the afternoon."

Then he said hello to Wenli and left.

I originally planned to take a day off today, but who would have thought that when I returned to the courtyard from Wenli's place, there would be an unexpected visitor.

"Dad, uncle, why are you here?"

That’s right, Qin Huairu’s father, Jia Dongsheng’s adoptive father-in-law, and his real father-in-law were both there, which surprised Jia Dongsheng.

"Dongsheng, you're back."

Qin Jingru's father was a man of few words, so it was Uncle Qin who had to speak up. "Yesterday the brigade organized another trip up the mountain, but it wasn't to hunt. It was autumn, and it was time to gather ripe mountain goods."

"I collected quite a lot, so I wanted to send some over to you, and also to come and see Huairu and Jingru."

Well, that was the simplicity of people in the 1950s and 1960s. When they had something good, they would think of giving some to their relatives and friends.

"Brother Dongsheng, Dad and uncle sent a lot of things."

Qin Jingru was so happy that she felt her family had made her proud. She smiled and introduced them to Jia Dongsheng: "Brother Dongsheng, look, this bag is chestnuts, this bag is walnuts, and here is a bag of pine nuts."

"Here are two large baskets of wild grapes, but they're too sour and not tasty at all."

At the end of her speech, Qin Jingru wrinkled her nose, looking innocent and cute, which made Jia Dongsheng like her very much.

There's no way around it. Any man would probably like to see a beautiful woman acting coquettishly, and no one would be able to resist it.

Otherwise, why are there so many white lotus and even more licking dogs?

"Thank you, Dad and Uncle. Why did you send so much? There are only a few of us in my family. How can we finish it all?"

Jia Dongsheng was not being falsely polite, but was speaking the truth. There were only a few people in the Jia family, and they had so many mountain products in bags, it would take them forever to eat them all!

"Hey, this is not a lot at all. You haven't been to Qinjiagou. If you go there, you will know that there are even more things you didn't bring with you."

Uncle Qin smiled and said, "I don't know what's going on these days. The grain harvest is poor, but the mountain products are plentiful. Every chestnut and walnut tree on the mountain is laden with chestnuts and walnuts, and every family is picking plenty."

"These things are durable and won't go bad even if you keep them for three to five months. Eat them slowly and tell me when they're gone. I still have more than a dozen bags at home."

Well, it seems that the mountain products have a good harvest. Several bags were delivered, and there are still more than ten bags at home. But it’s also good. Although this stuff can’t fill you up, the mountain products are still very nutritious.

"Okay, let's eat slowly."

As he spoke, Jia Dongsheng glanced at a few bags of mountain products: fried walnuts, sugar-roasted chestnuts, and five-spice pine nuts. Well, they were all quite delicious.

How do I get this wild grape?

It’s so sour that even the pregnant Qin Jingru doesn’t like to eat it. It seems that it is really too sour.

etc......

Who would eat wild grapes alone? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to use them to make wine?

Yes, mountain wine is good stuff.

Looking at the quality of the grapes, Jia Dongsheng could tell that they were top-quality wild grapes, perfect for making wine.

However, although two baskets of wild grapes are not a small number, if they are used to make wine, they can probably only make one jar. Isn’t it a little too little?

Thinking of this, Jia Dongsheng looked at Uncle Qin with a smile on his face: "Uncle, do you have many wild grapes at home?"

"Brother Dongsheng, why are you asking about wild grapes? They're so sour and not tasty at all."

Before Uncle Qin could answer, Qin Jingru spoke. She had no good feelings towards the wild grapes that had almost made her sick just now.

"I thought these wild grapes couldn't be eaten without anything else, so I thought of using them to make wild wine."

"Making mountain wine?"

Qin Jingru widened her beautiful eyes and asked in surprise, "How can it taste good? It's so sour?"

"Haha, shut up. What are you doing with your mouth?"

Seeing Qin Jingru's slightly open mouth, Jia Dongsheng almost stood at attention. Ever since he taught her how to play other paths of the game, he would get excited whenever he saw her open her mouth.

This is not a good time to play games!

"Of course, you can't just brew wild grape wine like this. You have to put a few pounds of sugar in it to neutralize the sour taste of the wild grapes. Once I brew it, you'll know whether it tastes good or not."
