PAMPERED CONSORT OF THE FRAGRANCE ORCHARD.BOOK 1

Chapter 31. Fermenting Grapes Wine.

Du Xiao Li and the others had just returned home, when Ji Liu Feng made Du Xiao Li quickly go make the grape wine, letting him broaden his horizon. But before the grapes were even done washing, Han Ming Yi’s twitching symptoms acted up again.

Although the symptoms this time didn’t last as long, Han Ming Yi’s complexion still became deathly pale. Consequently, everyone all lost the mood. Ji Liu Feng directly carried Han Ming Yi on his back and flew back to Niu Jing’s house.

“What’s wrong?” Niu Jing saw Ji Liu Feng carry Han Ming Yi back and immediately became tense, asking: “Did young master’s disease act up again?”

“Yes.” Ji Liu Feng had Han Ming Yi carried over to the guifei couch, before placing him down.

Niu Jing hurriedly took Han Ming Yi’s pulse, discovering that he was mostly fine. Everyone finally relaxed.

“When can Ming Yi’s disease be completely cured?” Ji Liu Feng looked to Han Ming Yi’s weakened appearance and anxiously asked.

“When once the five color fruit matures.” Niu Jing said.

“Then when will that five color fruit finally mature?” Ji Liu Feng asked.

“After autumn.” Niu Jing replied.

“Liu Feng, I’m fine.” Han Ming Yi said, “This many years have already pa.s.sed, would I still care about this bit of time? Don’t be impatient.”

“But…..ai!” Ji Liu Feng knew that it was useless for him to worry. He sat his b.u.t.t down on the stool nearby, deeply sighing.

Du Xiao Li saw Ji Liu Feng hastily take Han Ming Yi away, and could only wash the grapes herself. Using a clean bamboo basket, she had the water drained, and then placed all of it into a clean basin. Afterwards, she washed her hands clean, and had those grapes all crushed, squeezing out the juices. Right after, she put in white sugar according to the given proportion. Then she found a jar to store it.

“Phew—” Although it looked very simple, but from selecting the grapes to the final step, Du Xiao Li had spent an hour or so of time. Looking to the purple skin and green pulp, she contently had the jar sealed up.

Soon after, she went out again to look around, discovering that this mountaintop was already mostly fixed up. In her heart, she sighed. As expected, the more people, the greater the power.

Looking at the blistering hot weather, Du Xiao Li went back and boiled a big pot of water, letting Shi Er help carry up the mountain, while she herself followed behind with some bowls.

“Xiao Li boiled some water for everyone. Anyone who wants to drink water can all come over.” Shi Er placed down the pot and said to the working villagers.

Those villagers were indeed a bit thirsty and successively went to pour a bowl to drink.

“This weather sure is hot!” Someone said with a sigh.

“Right! This sun is getting more and more poisonous.” Someone else added.

“It hasn’t even entered the seventh month and it’s already this hot. Looks like, this year will be hot for a long time!”

After finishing the water, everyone continued working again, striving to quickly help Du Xiao Li develop this mountain.

Everyone came to work for Du Xiao Li. A part of the reason was because the money she gave was high, and another part of the reason was because they found the siblings pitiful, especially with Du Xiu Heng having gone to the county seat to study, leaving Du Xiao Li alone at home. Everyone all wanted to help out.
