Chapter 82 Ruoer can actually make wine

"It's plum wine. My eldest sister made it myself. I just borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha." Wei Jin also explained.

Everyone looked at Wei Ruo in surprise, while Wei Ruo looked at the dishes in front of him calmly.

The second brother asked for her opinion before doing this.

She didn't originally intend to show this courtesy to Wei Mingting, but the jar of wine had been opened last time, and the taste ran away after being left for a long time without drinking.

The jar of wine is still almost full. Last time, because my second brother was drunk, he left it aside after only two glasses. In addition, Wei Ruo himself is not keen on wine and would not drink it normally, so it would be wasted if he left it.

.

The second brother said that his father liked wine but was not an alcoholic, so giving him a taste was a good use of the wine.

In addition, the second brother had already mentioned it to her, so she couldn't refute the second brother's idea, so she didn't say anything.

"Ruo'er can make wine?" Wei Mingting's eyes fell on Wei Ruo.

"I know some, I can brew it casually." Wei Ruo replied casually.

"Then I'll have to give it a try as a father." Wei Mingting said.

People are in high spirits when happy events happen. The big rock of Japanese pirates temporarily fell down, and Wei Mingting's wine bug also came out.

Hearing this, Mrs. Yun hurriedly asked someone to pour a glass for Wei Mingting, and then poured wine for everyone present except Wei Yilin, who was still young.

Drinking is an elegant thing, so on such festive occasions, the Yun family allows their older children to drink.

Wei Mingting tasted it first, and then showed an expression of surprise on his face: "Ruo'er, are you really the one who made this wine?"

"Yeah." Wei Ruo responded calmly.

"This wine is really good, sweet and elegant, with a rich and fruity aroma," Wei Mingting commented.

After hearing Wei Mingting's comments, Yunshi and Wei Yichen also took a sip.

The two of them also looked surprised.

"Ruo'er's wine is well brewed and is actually purer and sweeter than the ones sold in restaurants in the county." Wei Yichen commented.

The pure and sweet taste is probably due to the distillation method Wei Ruo used to purify it, so the wine is fragrant and pure, as transparent as water.

However, many wines in this era, especially those brewed in small workshops, are a bit rough in craftsmanship, and the resulting wine is relatively cloudy.

Yun couldn't help but praise: "Ruo'er's hands are so skillful. It's the first time I've drunk such a non-violent but mellow wine."

Listening to everyone's praise for Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan lowered her head and glanced at the wine glass in front of her, then took a tentative sip.

She doesn't drink much, and there aren't many opportunities for her to drink, so she doesn't know as much about wine as her parents and brothers.

But Wei Qingwan could feel that the wine was indeed not bad. The sweet and refreshing taste could be tasted, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable.

She raised her head and looked at Wei Ruo, with a smile still on her face, and praised with the others: "Sister is really amazing. It seems that nothing can trouble her. Compared with her, I am really useless.

Already."

"How could Wanwan be useless? Wanwan has something Wanwan is good at." Mrs. Yun said hurriedly.

"That's right, sister, making wine is not something that only ladies should do. Isn't that what the sweaty winemakers in the small workshops outside are supposed to do?" Wei Yilin said hurriedly.

"Yilin, what are you talking about?" Wei Mingting looked serious.

Wei Yilin was very afraid of Wei Mingting. When Wei Mingting looked serious, he immediately lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.

On weekdays, when Wei Mingting was away, he would sometimes say a few words to secretly slander Wei Ruo like he did today. No one in the family was angry, so he got used to it.

"If it is an unintentional remark, or if it is intended to slander and disrespect your eldest sister, you don't need to eat this meal today, just go and stand in the yard!" Wei Mingting said coldly.

Hearing this, Mrs. Yun quickly interceded for her younger son: "Yilin must have made the mistake unintentionally. Husband, please don't be angry."

Wei Yilin lowered his head and nodded gently.

Seeing this, Wei Mingting did not continue to pursue the case.

Wei Yichen explained to Wei Yilin on the side: "Yilin, the craft of winemaking is not as crude and shallow as you think. Good winemaking recipes are usually secret recipes passed down by a family from generation to generation, and there is a Royal Winery in the palace, where the winemaking

The master has an official position."

"I know..." Wei Yilin responded in a low voice.

In fact, he also knew what the elder brother said. He just said that just because he didn't want sister Wanwan to be compared to Wei Qingruo.

The remaining Wei Jin just pretended to take a sip, but in fact he didn't drink even a drop of it. Wei Ruo saw it and knew that after the lesson learned last time, he would never touch wine easily now.

Even this kind of fruit wine is not strong.

After the meal was finished, the jar of wine was also empty. Wei Mingting drank most of it, and the rest just had a few sips.

And for Wei Mingting's drinking capacity, not to mention a jar of this fruit wine, he wouldn't be able to get drunk even if there were seven or eight jars of it.

He loved wine, but he refused to drink when he was on official business. Now that he had won a big victory and celebrated at home, it was a rare opportunity to drink in the past few years. He had a jar of good wine and drank extremely happily.

When the party was over, Wei Mingting unexpectedly took the initiative to ask Wei Ruo for a drink: "If Ruo'er makes another wine next time, how about giving it to dad to try it too?"

Wei Ruo could not refuse, so he said: "Okay, I will remember my father's share when I make wine next time."

I don’t know when the wine will be brewed next time. You can’t drink the newly brewed wine right away. It will have to be kept for a long time. So Wei Mingting doesn’t know when she will have to wait to drink the wine she brews next time.

As for the few jars still in her warehouse, Wei Mingting only said that they were for the next brewing time, but did not mention the ones that were already there, so naturally there was no need to take them out.

Wei Mingting said: "Okay, then as a father, I will wait for Ruo'er's next wine."

After the banquet, everyone left the dining hall one after another. As soon as Wei Ruo walked out of the dining hall door, Wei Qingwan walked towards her.

Wei Qingwan took the initiative to talk to Wei Ruo and gave her a purse she had embroidered herself:

"Sister, I embroidered this purse and gave it to my sister. I'm not as capable as my sister. I can only do some embroidery work. I hope my sister won't dislike it."

Wei Ruo turned to look at Wei Qingwan, but did not reach out to pick it up.

Seeing Wei Ruo's delay, Wei Qingwan explained: "My sister has kept in mind what she taught me on the Qiqiao Festival, but I couldn't think of any good way to express my sincerity to my sister, so I embroidered a purse to express my feelings.

.”

Wei Ruo looked at Wei Qingwan with sharp eyes. Wei Qingwan didn't know whether it was because of a guilty conscience or something else, but she lowered her head and avoided looking into Wei Ruo's eyes.

"Okay, I'll take it then." Wei Ruo suddenly reached out and took the purse.

Then Wei Ruo saw Wei Yichen coming out of the dining room, so he changed hands and gave the purse to him.

"Ruo'er, what is this?" Wei Yichen looked at Wei Ruo doubtfully.
