After the hot pot banquet in the evening, Zhang San also walked around the mansion with the three girls, exercising. It was very pleasing to see the three girls smiling sweetly.
"Third brother, are you spying on us?" The younger sister suddenly turned around and said something, which immediately made the three of them blush.
Zhang San had a guilty conscience, while Xiaoyu and Su Xin were just thin-skinned. When their little sister said this, they felt very shy inside.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It makes me look like a pervert." Zhang San said sternly.
"Humph, I don't believe it!" The younger sister smiled narrowly.
Seeing the little girl's expression, Zhang San knew what the little girl wanted to say next, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "You can go shopping by yourself, I've gone back to the room to write materials."
After saying that, without waiting for the three people to react, they ran away quickly.
"Sister Xiaoyu, do you think my brother has a guilty conscience? I ran away before I said anything." After saying this, the younger sister burst into laughter.
"You're talking nonsense, I'm going back too." Xiaoyu nodded her little sister's head and said angrily.
"I'm going back too." Su Xin also said quickly.
"Hey, I said you guys, oh, you're so mad at me." The younger sister watched the two girls walk away, and said with hatred.
"I'm just here to help you."
…
Zhang San returned to the house, closed the door, and took out Fang Keying's letter again to read. He was very happy in his heart. The happiest thing is that the person you like happens to like you too.
Zhang San wanted to quickly gain the approval of Fang's family. The first hurdle he had to pass if he wanted to marry Fang Keying was his future mother-in-law, Fang Xu.
I remembered that Fang Yiai told me last time that Fang Keying's mother's natal family was good at making perfume, and Fang Keying's mother was even more obsessed with perfume. So could she start from this aspect and follow her preferences?
Zhang San took out the sachet given to him by Fang Keying, put it to his nose and took a deep breath. The orchid-scented sachet made Zhang San very addicted.
Zhang San thought about the last time he had close contact with Fang Keying, and the fragrance on her body was that of orchids.
"I don't seem to know how to make perfume?" Zhang San thought for a moment that he seemed to know nothing about this, and felt very melancholy.
"Yes, there is no perfume and soap at this time, can I study it myself?" Zhang San's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that this method was definitely feasible.
"Which is better, perfume or soap?"
"It's better to make perfume first. This is easier. For soap, we need to find some beeswax. We don't have any at the moment." Zhang San thought for a while and decided to make perfume first.
"The strength of my liquor is not enough. I need to distill it again tomorrow. It's best to make it into alcohol. Then I need some flower petals. I don't know if orchids are easy to find. I'll ask tomorrow." Zhang San was thinking about what he would need to make perfume.
Material.
"We still need to order a few nice-looking porcelain vases. Let Zhang Fu order this tomorrow." Zhang San wrote down everything he needed to prepare, fearing that he would forget it the next day.
The next day, Zhang San found Zhang Ermao and asked him to be his assistant and start processing liquor. Zhang Ermao was the person who knew how to make wine recommended by Muramasa last time.
Zhang San just happened to teach him a little more at this time. When the brewery is set up later, he can let him do it.
"Sir, what else do you need?" Zhang Ermao asked after connecting the tubes to several porcelain pots.
"Okay, heat the wine, remember to seal it well, otherwise the steam will escape." Zhang San said.
"Okay Sir." Zhang Ermao carefully checked the sealing. He was very grateful to Zhang San for entrusting him with such an important technology. He must do it well and not let down Sir Alex's trust.
"You keep an eye on this place for now. If you need anything, call me. I have something to do with Mrs. Li." Zhang San said to Zhang Ermao.
"Okay, sir, don't worry." Zhang Ermao replied.
After Zhang San left, he called Aunt Li and asked her to collect some petals for him, "These flowers should be fragrant. Look for more orchids, and dried petals will do. By the way, if you want mint, pick some leaves too."
"
"Okay, sir, I'll take someone to look for them. I remember there are a lot of flowers on the hill not far from here. Let's go and have a look." Sister-in-law Li replied.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. It's hot, so be careful." Zhang San asked.
"Okay Sir, just wait at home. We have many wild flowers." Sister-in-law Li said with a smile.
"Sir, I have brought back so many bottles. Can you see if any of them meet the requirements?" Zhang Fu came in from outside and asked, bringing back more than a dozen bottles of various sizes and shapes.
"This bottle is good, but the painting on it is not good. Come back and ask the boss to draw plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums on it, and then ask for six bottles each." Zhang San said.
"Okay, sir, I'll do it right away." Zhang Fu said and drove the carriage to find the kiln owner again.
"Third brother, what do you want Sister Li to do with flowers?" the younger sister came to Zhang San and asked.
"You will know when the time comes, where is Su Xin?" Zhang San asked.
"I went to the commune with Sister Xiaoyu. Third brother, I feel so bored now. I also want to go to the commune to help." The younger sister took Zhang San's arm and said coquettishly.
"You can go if you want. I'm not stopping you. Didn't you say the commune wasn't fun last time?"
"Last time you asked me to learn accounting from Sister Xiaoyu, I got a headache just looking at those numbers. Of course it's not fun." The younger sister replied.
"You, isn't it just for you that Third Brother asked you to study? If you get married in the future, it won't be okay if you don't understand these things." Zhang San said helplessly.
Xiaomei and Xiaoyu are at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to mathematics. Xiaoyu can learn it quickly and can draw inferences about other cases, but Xiaomei gets a headache when she sees those numbers. She still can't understand addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
"I'm not getting married. I want to stay at home with my third brother."
"Hey, why do you want to go to the commune?" Zhang San asked helplessly.
"I'm going to help third brother look after the commune to save others from being lazy."
Seeing the innocent expression on the little girl's face, Zhang San said with a headache: "It would be fine if you didn't make trouble."
"How is it possible? So you said you agreed?" The girl raised her lips slightly and asked cautiously.
"You can go if you want. I'm not stopping you, but have you finished your homework? Bring it to me."
Hearing Zhang San say this, the little girl's face suddenly fell.
"I know you went to the commune because you didn't want to study." Zhang San nodded the little girl's head and said.
"Good brother, I really want to help you keep an eye on it, just let me go. I'll do my homework when I get back in the evening." The little girl said, shaking Zhang San's arm.
"You, I really can't do anything to you, go ahead, take your guards with you, don't be alone." Zhang San instructed.
"Okay, third brother, I'm going." The younger sister jumped up happily upon hearing this.
Zhang San asked the guards to protect the little girl, and went to see how Zhang Ermao was doing.
"Sir, please take a look, is this purity okay?" Zhang Ermao asked, holding a small bottle and passing it to Zhang San.
"It still needs to be distilled again. The purity is not yet what I want." Zhang San dipped a little, tasted it, and smelled it again. The current wine is estimated to be only over 40 degrees, and it must be at least 50 degrees.
The above will do.
So, Zhang Ermao continued to process.
Zhang San was waiting for Sister-in-law Li to come back and saw Sister-in-law Li and others picking a lot of flower petals and some wild mint leaves.
"Sir, are these enough? I also picked some orchids." Sister-in-law Li asked.
"Well, that's enough. You've worked hard. You guys should take a rest first and then clean these flowers." Zhang San said.
"Okay Sir, let's not be tired. Let's go and clean these flowers first." Sister-in-law Li replied with a smile.
"Everything is ready. Once the wine is distilled, you can start experimenting." Zhang San was full of expectations.
