The lightness of the world of mortals

In the grape fields at six o'clock in the morning, it takes courage to breathe.Mingyu is already wearing the working apron and gloves provided by the winery and standing on the harvester to cut hanging branches. All mechanical equipment is not suitable for picking frozen grape bunches, and the harvested fruits have to be manually screened to remove mold and rot. The removal of the fruit requires more thought and energy from the people involved in the brewing of frozen wine.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, when the frost on the fruit is still intact, a gentle pressing is carried out in time.The winery of Beneco maintains a pressing standard of minus [-] degrees. The water in the grapes freezes and is removed together with the frost on the fruit, so that the squeezed juice is thicker and purer.

The first batch of grape juice is ready, add yeast, and wait for the secret and wonderful change inside the barrel.

"How long?" Ming Yu asked.

Carl, a volunteer from northern Germany who arrived a week earlier than her, shrugged, "Three to four months."

"Is it so long? I thought it could be brewed during the New Year's Eve."

"Ordinary wine can be fermented in a few weeks, but frozen wine takes so long."

Mingyu listened to him, but his eyes were attracted by the scene outside the window. The little Bernaike was smiling all over his face. A middle-aged man walked towards him. He looked familiar. Blind is the man who was holding coffee and wearing a scarf when the little train stopped in the town that day. He walked over, and the two kissed naturally and affectionately.

That's great, Mingyu thought.

But she no longer longed for love to come to her. Those longings that remained after the stumble must be due to the lack of vicissitudes.She once said to Jiang Ruojing in the coolest tone: I want to drink a glass of milk, do I have to raise a cow?But then, when she was in the pasture, when the sun was shining, she still became a breeder full of joy.

What about now?Now she looks at other people's leisurely and joyful scene on the pasture, she only smiles slightly, and no longer speaks cruelly, she just understands in her heart that some luck is unbearable for herself, and being a breeder is really tiring, that's all.

She thought that this year probably injected the last drop of water into the "vicissitudes" and finished the last stroke, making it a "vicissitudes".

"They are sweet, right?" The volunteer worker beside her interrupted her thoughts.

"Huh?" Ming Yue came back to his senses, "Ah, yes, they seem to have a good understanding."

"20 years." The volunteer laughed.

"Year 20?"

"I come here to help every year, and they are considered friends. Finn and Keller have been together for 20 years. Finn, oh, is Mr. Beneker. Being a man is the same as making wine."

Jiang Ruojing was no longer that first-rate milk cow.

Macau is so warm, she sighed, Kent followed behind with two suitcases, followed by Jiang Ruojing's mother.

"Mom, hurry up~" she shouted back.

This time she and Kent took leave to come to Macau and said they would bring their mother to have fun.After being settled in the hotel, she and Kent went out first to show off their skills in the casino on the first floor.Jiang Ruojing had never been in a casino before, so he made up for it before coming this time. Although Kent had played it a few times, it was just a game and never a master.But in just one trip, the two won [-] Australian dollars.

Jiang Ruojing was so excited that his cheeks turned red, and it took him a while to remember his mother who was left in the upstairs room, so he dragged Kent back to his room.

The two walked past a row of brand stores, Jiang Ruojing glanced at them, then looked away, and continued to walk towards the elevator, but Kent held her back, "Do you want to go shopping?"

"What are you shopping for? How much money do you get?"

"Oh, it's always affordable to buy something."

"Use your bank card to swipe the money. I've agreed to let my mother deposit the money." Jiang Ruojing gave him a blank look.

"What are you afraid of? What is Macau these days? It's just hundreds of thousands of money to open an account, and the big money is behind!" Kent showed a disgusted expression.

Jiang Ruojing didn't care about it anymore, Macau took 50 in five days, the money was agreed to be deposited in her mother's account, so she wouldn't let Kent take advantage of it.

It was dark at four o'clock.

Where nights are long, light is always extremely precious; where winters are long, summer is always a short-lived blessing.

In a life dominated by loneliness, the person who walks with you on such a journey is your light and summer.

Like frozen wine brewed in the bitter cold.

Mingyu followed little Bernaike, watching him turn on the faucet on the wine pool to take a small cup, which was fermented wine last week, and little Bernaike was checking its sweetness, acidity, and various values ​​of fermentation, Explain to the students while checking.Everyone also followed him to take a small cup to taste.

The grape nectar harvested this morning has already started to ferment in another wine tank. The little Bernacke walked by, patted the steel barrel, turned back and smiled at Mingyu, "Are you looking forward to it?"

Ming Yu also smiled, and nodded, "However, we will have to wait a few months to know its taste. If possible, please send me a bottle then."

"This is the wine you made, and I will definitely save a bottle for you," said Bernack Jr. shrugging, "You can have your own bottle."

At the end of the day's work, the little Bernaike took Mingyu to a wine storage room. In the blue light, there were rows of wine displayed on the shelves, and looking into the distance, there were empty bottles of various shapes.Little Beneker walked over and pointed to a row of slender wine bottles, "These are bottles for frozen wine, you can pick one."

Ming Yu narrowed her eyes. Although they were all slender bottles, their designs were different. She chose the one with angular but elegant lines, "Let's just take it."

"Good eyesight." The little Bernaceau nodded and pulled out the bottle. There was a frosted black label on the body of the bottle. The label was blank, and only the three-dimensional silver badge of the Bernaceau Winery was printed in the middle of the bottom.

Little Benek took out a special pen from the side and handed it to Ming Yu, "Have you figured out the name of this bottle of wine?"

Endless thoughts flooded into Ming Yue's mind in an instant. There were too many thoughts, but he couldn't catch up.

"It doesn't matter, you can think about it slowly. When you think about it, write it on it. In April and May, it will be filled with light golden wine, and it will be yours."

All the thoughts merged into two words in an instant, Ming Yu pulled out the pen cap, held the wine bottle in his left hand, and wrote neatly and stroke by stroke: Xilin.

The lowercase letters, which are as silver as the badge of the winery, are arranged up and down in a cool and beautiful manner, and the date is signed below. The grapes were picked on this day, the wine was made on this day, and "Xilin" came to life on this day.

"It's so beautiful," the little Bernek looked at the wine bottle, "may I ask what it means?"

Ming Yue smiled, "She is a very beautiful person."

She misses her and blames her, but in this time and space shrouded in blue, she thanks her for being a beautiful person after all, and where her grievances and thoughts lie, what lingers in her heart for thousands of days and nights is finally a beautiful person. man, it is a kind of luck.

That wonderful person just made an appointment with Hisoka's dtm. The meeting was scheduled on the 26th, in a small border town on the west side of Damai, next to Hisoka. Bidders, take great care not to set foot in Hisoka borders.

There are still two weeks before the meeting. After the appointment, the funds for "Zhenqi Island" have been settled, and she is leaving for Haicheng again. The schedule is full. Christmas and New Year will be spent in a foreign land. On the plane from Haicheng to Damai, and at the Bernac Winery in Germany during the New Year, she agreed to the New Year's Eve trip arranged by Manfilo, which was a vacation she gave herself.

Haicheng is also starting to feel like Christmas.Seeing Chen Xilin's return, the administrative director hurriedly made an appointment, "Mr. Chen, how about ordering the Bund X for this year's New Year's Eve?"

Chen Xilin put down his coffee cup, "You can arrange it, you know everyone's preferences best, oh, I will not be in Haicheng this New Year's Eve."

"Ah?" The administrative director's voice was full of mixed flavors. It's a good thing that the boss is not there, freedom, but who will you show when the boss is not there?It's boring to think about it, "There are only ten days left, isn't Mr. Chen settling in Haicheng for two weeks? The employees are also looking forward to getting together with you outside of work."

Chen Xilin felt really sorry when he suddenly played the emotional card, "I'm sorry, Cindy, I promised a partner to go to Europe for New Year's Eve this year, and before that I will go to Africa on a business trip. Before I leave, I will invite various departments of Haicheng Let the people in charge get together, what do you think?"

"Hmm..." The administrative director thought for a while, "May I ask when you leave?"

"Fly on the 25th."

"If that's the case, we'll move this year's ladder climbing to Christmas Eve. Let's celebrate together while Mr. Chen is here." Cindy rolled her eyes, "I think it's better this way. Half of it will be spent alone, let's move to Christmas Eve!"

After the matter was settled, Chen Xilin looked at the back of the administrative director and smiled slightly. The administrative work must not be easy, and both the top and the bottom must make people happy.

Two days later, Jiang Ruojing also came back from Macau for vacation.

The backbone of the customer experience department came back, and everyone gathered around her to share the gifts. Jiang Ruojing was about to enter the small office when she turned around and saw that the shutters of the French windows in Chen Xilin's office at the other end of the corridor were open, and she had also returned to Haicheng.

Then she strode over, and it happened that the secretary was not there, so she knocked on the door unceremoniously.

Chen Xilin raised his head, "Which one?"

"I~ah~"

Chen Xilin frowned slightly, "Please come in."

Jiang Ruojing entered the door, but didn't go in anymore, leaning against the door frame, "Lynn, you've lost weight."

Chen Xilin also smiled, "Thank you for your concern, what can I do for you?"

Jiang Ruojing thought for a while, "Lynn, do you like to gamble?"

"I don't like to gamble, but I have gambled before," said the words, on that scorching summer day, the road with rising yellow sand poured into his heart instantly, and Chen Xilin almost shook his head to shake it away, "Why? I heard you went to visit Macao?"

Jiang Ruojing laughed, that secretive smile seemed so unnecessary to others, "Yeah, Lynn, I went to make a big bet, I'm so happy~"

Chen Xilin couldn't help but frowned, "Just be happy."

Jiang Ruojing left the door frame, turned around to leave, and seemed to remember something, turned her head and said, "Stay here for the holidays." After finishing speaking, he left without waiting for a reply.

Listening to the sound of the high-heeled shoes "da da", Chen Xilin crossed his arms. This conversation made the unbearable memory of that time emerge and linger.

takecare...takecare...takecare...

This was the last sentence she said to Mingyu face to face.

In the dry and scorching air, with the turbulent yellow sand, Chen Xilin's car drove from the City of Angels all the way to the northwest, passing through the scorching sand dunes and barrenness, breaking through the critical point of the body... The morning glow tore apart a large piece of bloody land in the distant sky. Wounds, red clouds rolling in the sky like blood-soaked human tissue... The famous gambling city in the desert has a carnival temperament that has no future today, venting by spending a lot of money...

That's right, she doesn't like to gamble, but she squandered Cindy's or Jiang Ruojing's two-year salary that day in a fit of anger, who said that being frustrated in love makes you happy in the casino?If a person is frustrated, he will keep falling until he bottoms out to rebound.

……

Opening her eyes, Jiang Ruojing leaned against the door frame and said two or three casual words, which brought out her painful memories that were not humane.Fortunately, time passed fairly and healed. On the phone that day, Mingyu sounded pretty good.

Chen Xilin calmed down, looked up at the monitor, turned the mouse around, and turned to Jiang Ruojing's room, and hadn't observed her for a long time.This woman is also very hard at work. I have just cleared up my emotions. She has already sat down in front of the computer, studying the third-order drawings meticulously. I don’t know when she wore a pair of glasses. Like the frivolous woman leaning on the door frame just now.

All the vicissitudes of life.
