Chapter 242 Rice Wine
Guo'er patted her head and said in frustration, "I was so busy just now that I forgot about this!"
So, he used magic to demolish the wall connecting to the small garden. There happened to be a road outside the wall that led directly to the farm gate!
There’s no need to open another door, just come in through the main door from now on!
After demolishing the wall, she thought for a moment and said to Li Xuezhu, "I'll set up an illusion array here. There will be a lot of busy construction work going on here in the next few days!"
"Okay, as long as it doesn't affect me bringing workers in and out of the construction site!" Li Xuezhu agreed.
There are many visitors at home, and the house changes drastically overnight, which can easily arouse people's curiosity. So an illusion is created to make them think that there are many people hired to do the work, so the work can be completed faster.
She quickly set up an illusion array and then went back with Li Xuezhu.
It was almost dawn. Considering that Dad didn't get much sleep at night and still had a lot of work to do during the day, I let him go into the space and get a good night's sleep before coming out.
Guo'er also took advantage of this time to make some wine. From now on, the family would not need to buy any wine and could make all their own. She had not had time to show her family the white wine and rice wine she made in the imperial capital.
However, she has tried the homemade grain wine, and the taste is excellent, fragrant and pure, with diverse layers, rich aroma, moderate but not strong, which makes Guoer, who doesn't like liquor at all, fall in love with it.
Rice wine has a completely different taste, it is fragrant, sweet, soft and mellow, with a low alcohol content. Guoer loves it very much.
While I was busy, Li Xuezhu had already woken up and came out.
"Girl, are you brewing wine here? Do you know how to do this?" Li Xuezhu asked curiously.
Does this look like making white wine? When did his daughter learn how to do this?
"Yes, there are many wine-making recipes in the library. I found the recipe there and followed it to make wine. It's quite simple!" Guo'er answered while busy with the work in her hands.
After finishing the work in her hands, she took out a bottle of homemade white wine from the space and handed it to Li Xuezhu.
"Dad, try the white wine I brewed some time ago and see how it tastes?" As he said this, he seemed to have thought of something and handed over another wine glass.
"Okay! I must try the wine brewed by my daughter!" Li Xuezhu took the wine handed by Guo'er happily and said with anticipation.
He seemed to feel that it was not appropriate to drink while standing, so he took out a small table and a small stool from his own storage ring and sat down in front of him.
He took out a plate of peanuts and a plate of braised beef and started drinking comfortably.
Guo'er was so upset seeing this, she thought, they are really well prepared, look at how relaxed they look!
But he didn't say anything and lowered his head to get busy again. There was still a lot of work waiting to be done.
Li Xuezhu picked up the wine glass, sniffed it, and then took a sip. "The aroma is fragrant, the taste is soft and mellow, the taste is delicate and smooth, and the aftertaste is long. This wine is good!"
Guo'er chuckled, but she didn't stop working. She said proudly, "Of course it's good. Look who brewed it! How could it be bad?"
"That's right, only my daughter's skillful hands can make such good wine. This is the best wine I've ever tasted, better than any Taiwanese wine!" Li Xuezhu also exclaimed in admiration. He was serious about praising his daughter! In his eyes, his daughter was good in every way and excellent in every way!
"Of course. This wine is brewed with pure grains. I also added spiritual spring water. It would be unacceptable if the taste is not good. From now on, our family will use homemade liquor to make medicinal wine and fruit wine. No need to buy it outside!" Guoer said with a smile.
Her family members usually like to have a drink, and homemade wine is not only healthy but also safe to drink.
After tasting the wine, Li Xuezhu helped Guo'er make wine. The father and daughter left the space only after they finished brewing.
It was already daybreak and the family members were all up. Guoer asked them to bring back some staple food from the farm restaurant after their morning exercise.
Since the farm restaurant opened, her family usually makes soup or porridge for breakfast, and the staple food is brought back from the restaurant.
She went into the kitchen and prepared to make some rice wine dumplings as soup, which can relax the muscles and promote blood circulation, strengthen the spleen and stimulate the appetite, and also replenish blood, nourish the skin, and prolong life.
Quickly add an appropriate amount of water to the pot and bring it to a boil, then add the homemade small glutinous rice balls and boil them, then add an appropriate amount of rice wine, wolfberry, red dates, and rock sugar and boil them again, then add water starch and boil, and a sweet and delicious rice wine glutinous rice balls are ready.
When Guoer cooked the soup and brought it out, grandma and the others also put the buns, fried dough sticks, pot stickers, etc. that they brought back on the table.
"Are these rice wine dumplings? I remember that we don't make rice wine at home? Did you buy this rice wine from the supermarket?" Luo Xianglian asked while looking at the soup that Guo'er placed on the table.
Then he lamented, "The ones sold outside don't taste the same as the ones we made at home anymore! No matter how we make them, they just don't taste right!"
"Yes! I remember that mom used to be very good at making rice wine, but I haven't tasted the one made by you in a long time!" Zhou Ruolan also sighed. She used to like drinking rice wine the most. It was so sweet!
"Indeed, I haven't made it for many years. The water quality and rice are not good now. I can't make the same taste as before, so I don't want to make it anymore!" Luo Xianglian said with some regret.
He suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he slapped his head and said excitedly: "Really, my memory is getting worse as I get older. The water and rice in our house are both top-notch now, so we can make it again."
Guo'er looked at the two people, who looked regretful at one moment and excited at the next, but seemed to have little interest in the rice wine dumplings she made. She was speechless. It seemed that they really didn't like the rice wine sold outside.
So, deliberately speaking mysteriously, "Grandma, Mom, let me tell you a secret. I didn't buy this rice wine, I brewed it myself. If you don't want to drink it, it's all mine!"
Before the two could say anything, Li Gensheng's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Is this Guo'er's homemade rice wine? Is there any filtered rice wine? Give grandpa a bowl!"
He used to really like this and would drink a bowl every morning. I miss it so much.
"Daughter, give dad a bowl too!" Li Xuezhu said quickly, as if afraid that she would forget him.
"I made a lot last time and filtered a lot of it. It's enough for you to drink for a long time!" As he said that, he took out a jar of wine and handed it over.
Li Xuezhu couldn't wait to take it, opened the sealed lid, took the bowl that was originally intended for soup, and poured a bowl for everyone.
"Try it and see how it tastes!" Li Xuezhu smiled and placed a bowl in front of everyone.
Li Gensheng was the first to pick up a bowl and started drinking. Seeing him eating, others also picked up their bowls and started tasting.
