Marry a hunter to be husband

Chapter 37

37.Beggars, they can’t beat me

When Shen Qian was in college, he had a friend who started doing self-media in his sophomore year. He focused on making some traditional things by hand, and wine making was one of them.

Moreover, his friend not only makes wine, but also makes music. Shen Qian heard him complain about many problems encountered during production in the group, and saw the videos he shot, so he was confident that he could give it a try.

In his opinion, the taste of the wine he served when he and Lu Jiu were married was strange, and could not be compared with the wine made by his friends, but everyone in the village liked it.

Shen Qian thought that if he could brew white wine, rice wine and sweet wine according to his friend's method, even if there was only one of them, his family would have a rich and stable income in the future.

"I heard others say that brewing wine is very complicated. If you can't try it out..." Song Lan hesitated.

Shen Qian didn't dare to say too much, and just said vaguely: "I once read in a book how to make wine, and it said it's not difficult. Since I have cakes and koji at home, I won't be willing to try it."

Song Lan didn't doubt what Shen Qian had read in the book. In the past, Shen Qingping often scolded Shen Qian at home, saying that he didn't study hard enough to read serious books. He just found random books to read every day, just like before. Shen Qian retting was the same, so she didn't think much about it, but this time she was worried about wasting food.

After being exiled to Qingping Village, she suffered from hunger and worked in the fields. She also knew the value of food.

"Let me give it a try," Lu Jiu said. "Anyway, our family will harvest a lot of grain this year. No matter whether it succeeds or not, we won't be hungry. At worst, we won't be able to sell the sorghum."

The two young men were determined to give it a try, and Song Lan was no longer disappointed. She nodded and said, "Then I will go to the mountains to collect more firewood. It will be useful when the time comes."

Shen Qian laughed, "Not so fast."

Although he planned to make wine, he did not want to fight an unprepared battle. He only had about twenty cakes and koji at home, and no one sold them outside. Before making the cakes and koji himself, he did not plan to make the tools for brewing. I don't want to make it public, and I'm afraid that if the cake is not finished, the tools will be wasted.

The weather is still hot now, which is suitable for making cakes and koji, but not for making wine. To make wine, you need to wait until the weather gets colder.

Lu Jiu and Song Lan were not flamboyant. Like the deer Shen Qian hunted before, he took it directly to the county town and sold it. Except for Lu Dazhu, who took Shen Qian down the mountain, no one in the village knew about it.

Before Shen Qian brewed the wine, or even before selling the wine, both of them planned to keep this matter in their stomachs.

The spicy Polygonum used to make koji is not eaten by pigs or cows. It usually grows on the roadside and no one touches it. Shen Qian only cut the grass on the edge of his own field and covered the basket with green vegetables to prevent the villagers from seeing it. I wonder what he does cutting grass that even pigs and cows won’t eat.

Things like field grass are better, and many people will cut them to feed chickens. In addition to the chickens he received when he and Lu Jiu got married, more than a dozen chicks were hatched later, and now there are nearly 20 chickens in the backyard. It is normal to wait for food with your mouth open every day and cut some grass to feed the chickens.
