Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Gu Qingzhi shrank her neck and quietly tugged at Gu Yan's sleeve. Gu Yan coughed softly twice, looked at her helplessly, and sighed. Did she know how to push him out this time?

"Second Aunt, don't worry, this donkey is just temporarily ill and will recover in a while. I know there is a kind of herb on Xizi Mountain that can cure this disease of donkeys. I will pick some tomorrow morning. In a few days, it will be full of life again!"

Gu Qingzhi mentioned this to Gu Yan on the way home. There are herbs on Xizi Mountain that can treat sick donkeys.

Gu Wang believed Gu Yan's words without a doubt, and naturally did not think about it any further, so she nodded slightly to show that she understood: "Erlang, thank you for your hard work."

Gu Yan shook his head slightly and continued, "Second Aunt, I want to help clean the donkey first."

"I'll go find some materials to build a donkey shed later."

"We have to hurry and get it done while it's still light."

In addition, Qingqing also told him about two herbs that she was familiar with, which could be found on Dongfeng Mountain. After finding them, he could bring them back and boil them in water to give the donkey to drink, which would help alleviate the donkey's current condition.

After hearing this, Gu Wangshi nodded slightly to show her agreement.

After all, if the donkey could really be cured, that would be a good thing. In this way, the family would have one more animal, and it might save a lot of trouble in the future.

At this time, Gu Qingzhi saw that her brother was going to stay in the backyard to take care of the donkey, so she ran over and hugged Gu Wang's arm tightly, saying coquettishly: "Mom, come and see, we bought a lot of things at the market today!"

Gu Wangshi followed Gu Qingzhi back to the front hall.

Upon learning that they actually bought beef, Gu Wang was very surprised. After all, it had been several years since she last ate beef.

Gu Qingzhi began to make arrangements: "Mother, I plan to keep half of this beef to make beef jerky. This way, when my brother goes up the mountain, he can take it out and eat it at any time to replenish his energy."

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind - since beef can be made into delicious beef jerky, then pork must be able to make the same; not only that, chicken and rabbit meat may also be able to be turned into chewy jerky through similar methods!

But for now, let’s try making some beef jerky to see how it turns out, and then we can explore other meats step by step.

However, Wang Gu didn't know that during this short journey, her daughter's mind had been in a thousand thoughts.

At this moment, she was staring at the icing sugar in the courtyard, thinking to herself, "Is there more than thirty kilograms of icing sugar here?"

Gu Qingzhi followed her mother's gaze and also noticed the bag of frosting on the table in the front hall.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered that she had not yet told her mother about her intention to make wine, and she suddenly became a little uneasy.

So she plucked up the courage to express her inner thoughts to her mother.

To her surprise, A'niang was exactly the same as her brother and expressed her unwavering support to her without hesitation.

Gu Wangshi said with great interest: "Qing'er, this many grapes is not a small number. Can you handle it by yourself? Do you need your mother to help you?"

What she thought in her mind was very simple - as long as it was something her daughter wanted to try, it must be the right choice, and as a mother she should give her full support and encouragement.

"Mother!" Gu Qingzhi happily threw herself into Gu Wangshi's warm and generous embrace, feeling the pampering and care of a mother's love.

At this moment, she deeply felt the happiness and beauty of having her mother's company and care.

At the same time, I told myself silently in my heart: Mother, please rest assured! Qing'er will definitely work harder and will never let you down for your ardent expectations and deep trust in me.

With the support of Gu Wangshi, Gu Qingzhi decided to do it.

First, she cut the grapes together with the stems and put them into a large wooden basin so that they would be easier to clean. She discarded those grapes whose skins were broken and the flesh was exposed to prevent them from spoiling and the wine being brewed would go bad.

Seeing her daughter so enthusiastic, Gu Wang asked her how to do it, then came over with scissors to help.

There are so many grapes. How long will it take my daughter to pick them all by herself?

Gu Qingzhi was very touched, "Mother, you won't blame me for being silly, right?"

Gu Wangshi smiled and said, "What's the big deal, Qing'er? I will definitely support you unconditionally. Just do whatever you want to do boldly. Besides, I also believe that you won't do anything nonsense."

Gu Qingzhi was also very happy to hear this, because her brother said the same thing when she said she wanted to buy frosting that day.

Thinking of her family's unconditional support, Gu Qingzhi felt a lot of pressure. Even though the grapes were picked from the mountains and had no cost, the icing sugar had to be bought with real money, and it was much more expensive than food.

However, she was sure that the recipe in the book was not deceptive. Not only the recipe, but also when she was a ghost in her previous life, she had seen many servants in her brother's family making wine. This was her full confidence.

This is a big gamble. If you lose, the money you spent on the frosting will be wasted. But if you win, the profit will be huge.

Then she put aside her extra thoughts and concentrated on picking grapes.

There is no point in thinking too much, just start working.

With the joint efforts of mother and daughter, they finished picking almost two large baskets of grapes, except for some that Gu Qingzhi took out.

The next step is cleaning.

Gu Qingzhi drew water from the well and slowly poured it into the wooden basin for washing.

"Mom, be careful when washing. Don't wash off the white stuff on the grape skin. If you wash it off, the fermentation won't be good and you won't be able to make wine."

Gu Wang nodded to indicate that she understood, then picked up the grapes and carefully washed them.

After washing the grapes, Gu Qingzhi took out a clean drying mat, placed it in a cool and ventilated place, and then spread the washed grapes on it to dry. At the same time, she removed the stems and picked out the bad fruits, as these things would affect the taste and mellowness of the wine.

"Mother, where did you put the empty wine jars in our house?"

Gu Wang stood up and said, "It's in the utility room, go find it, mother."

She walked a few steps, then turned back and asked, "Do we need to wash it and boil it in hot water?"

Gu Wangshi vaguely heard people say that jars for storing wine must be steamed at high temperatures, so that the wine will not deteriorate easily and can be stored for a long time.

Gu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment. Her mother really knew a lot.

She came back to her senses in an instant and immediately replied, "Yes, mother, you have to wash it clean, rinse it in boiling water in a pot, and dry it before you can use it."

As expected, she asked a little more. Gu Wang was relieved and said with a smile, "Then leave these to mother."
