butcher's cook

??Bai Ning wanted to follow, Tan Ming was a little worried. He felt that there was no need for Bai Ning to go, even if there were seventy or eighty relatives, there was no need for Bai Ning to go.

??Bai Ning looked at him, blinked, and said calmly, "But I want to go with you!"

??Tan Ming's face suddenly turned red, "...Then, let's go together, and let the sister-in-law worry about the family."

??The previous people all started to go up the mountain under the guidance of Uncle Tan, so few people noticed the small movements of their young couple at the moment.

?? "Then I will take a sickle."

?? When there is no picking, everyone thinks that picking grapes is an easy job.When they got to the place, they found that it was far from as simple as they thought. This grape grove had been spreading for many years, and it was really difficult to pick because it was high and low.

?? These people are also dedicated, although they will pick two to eat on the way, but they don't stuff a lot of them into their mouths.

??The group picked the bottom grapes first. It was really difficult to pick the high ones. Everyone was afraid of hurting the vines, so it was difficult to explain to Tan Ming.

?? There are many birds, these grapes have been pecked a lot, everyone feels distressed.

?? Not to mention that other people feel distressed, even Bai Ning himself feels distressed.The grape yield at this time was far less than that of the later period. There were only about a dozen grapes in a bunch, and one-third of them were eaten by birds. Just eat one bite, and the rest will rot.This is still a relatively good situation, and some are simply not left at all.

??At noon, the back baskets brought by everyone were only less than one-third full, which weighed more than 800 catties.

?? It was far from his initial imagination.

??Tan Ming was also disappointed when he saw such a small amount of grapes. Seeing Bai Ning sitting in a daze, he comforted him, "It's okay, don't be sad. No one is watching this year, so the sparrows ate so much. Next year I will go to see it myself, and I will definitely gain something.”

?? Bai Ning didn't think about this at all, he was thinking about transplanting grapes.

??It is too far away after all, and it is not suitable for someone to guard there for a long time.Moreover, the canopy over there is too high, and the grape vines climb up the rock. When they are ripe, many grapes cannot be picked.

??When the time comes to build some grape trellises, he can still take care of the grapes at any time. Being close to home, it is the best of both worlds.

?? "You say, how about we transplant those grapes to the front?"

??Tan Ming was slightly surprised, "So many? All transplanted to the front? This..."

??Bai Ning himself also felt that it was hasty. With more than 20 acres, transplanting it will require a lot of manpower and material resources. It is still not a small problem to put on airs.First of all, we must choose wood that is not easy to rot. If the shelf will rot after two years, then what a fart it is!

?? "It was a bit troublesome at the beginning, but the grape grove is too far away. Look at the harvest this year. I thought I could collect about 5000 catties, but now it is only 800 catties. Most of them have been eaten by birds. , and the rest is on the top of the tree crown, which is not easy to pick."

??Tan Ming also thought of those dismal harvests, and was tempted, "Brother Ning, can these grapes really make wine?"

?? When Bai Ning heard the words, he almost gasped, and said in a bad mood, "You didn't believe me before when you were in love!"

"No, no, just make sure, make sure, if the grapes can really produce the kind of wine you said, then I will ask someone to transplant the grapes, if it can't make wine, then transplant less, and wait until the future Children, they have food to eat too."

?? The corners of Bai Ning's mouth twitched, but he felt a little better, "You think so far."

?? "Hey, sooner or later there will be!"

?? "It can really make wine. If you don't believe it, when these grapes are turned into wine, you can watch it, but it's not your share."

"Trust, letter, I'm not worried." Tan Ming quickly changed the subject, "In this case, I'll go and tell my uncles and uncles to tell them not to worry about the vines in the afternoon, but to pull Teng Nan down to pick them."

"Come back." Bai Ning called out, and Tan Ming turned around slowly, "Brother Ning, is there anything else?"

?? "Are you stupid? Don't you have to go up the mountain later? Why do you run over one by one now?"

??right!

?? Tan Ming nodded stiffly, he just forgot.

?? "Mingzi, are you at home?" At this extremely embarrassing moment, Dashi brought his wife over.

?? "Hey, Dashi, why did you bring your brother-in-law here?"

?? "Someone helped you on the mountain. I saw you carrying the grapes back and cleaning them in the uncle's yard. I asked him to come over and help wash the grapes."

?? It's been five months, how can he still be allowed to work.

??Bai Ning looked at this big belly curiously. Even though it was the first time he saw a big belly, he was still surprised.When he was in the servant's mansion, Bai Shilang loved women more, even if he had two servants, he would not be favored, so he has never seen a brother with a big belly.Thinking of the first time he saw his pregnant brother, he was almost frightened out of his wits. The thin and small brother had an abnormally bulging stomach, and he almost thought that the brother had a disease.

??Thinking that he will have such a day, he can't help but shudder, it's too scary.

??Noticing Bai Ning's gaze, Brother Li smiled kindly at him.

?? "It's okay, I have to work at home, and cleaning is not a big deal."

??Everyone said so, it would be unsatisfactory for Tan Ming and the others to refuse.

?? "Then I will trouble brother-in-law."

?? Next, everyone doesn't have to worry about the vines, and the harvest of grapes is much more. Although it is far from his expectation, it is nearly 2000 catties.

??Qin brought a few daughters-in-law and several younger daughter-in-laws to wash the grapes together. There is a well in his house, and he can directly fetch water for washing.

??Some people wash and some dry it, but it doesn't take long.

"Mingzi, I just went to see what those people did. The vines were all ripped off." Uncle Tan didn't go with him in the afternoon, so he didn't know about Tan Ming's plan to transplant it. I felt very distressed when I saw it the next day .

?? "Uncle, I told them to pull the vines. I couldn't pick them from the tree. I asked them to pull the vines down to pick them."

?? "Oh, why did you do this, good grape vines, why did you tear them off, will they still end up next year?" Uncle Tan was heartbroken.

?? "Uncle, don't worry, just listen to me."

?? Uncle Tan threw the cigarette stick away, still angry, "Tell me, what are you doing with the good vine?"

?? "Yes, Mingzi, such a large piece of grapes makes my heart ache." Qin followed suit.

"Uncle, you also saw that many of the grapes in the morning were eaten by the birds."

?? Both Uncle Tan and Mrs. Qin nodded. One picked it himself, and the other found it during cleaning. "They were all ruined by sparrows. There are not a few good ones."

?? "Then those vines are too tall to pick."

?? Uncle Tan nodded, "Indeed."

?? "So, I plan to dig out the old grape roots and plant them in the area between the hillside and Wuji Mountain. That area has been cleared out, and it can be planted just right."

?? "After digging, it will take a year or two to bear fruit. It will definitely not bear fruit next year, at least the year after next." Uncle Tan said regretfully.

"It's okay, at least it's close to home, and then it can be fertilized to drive away birds. If the shelf is set low, it's easy to pick."

??Tan Ming gave the excuse, and Uncle Tan and his wife accepted it and agreed.

?? "Then when will you start rooting? When the time comes, come and call me and your brother. You guys should hurry up."

??"Row."

??There are more than two thousand catties of grapes, and his ten large tanks are definitely not enough. Thinking that the next wine will be available every year, Bai Ning went to order another thirty large tanks.

?? This time the big tank is not the kind that holds fifty catties, but directly holds one hundred catties.

??Two thousand catties of grapes, the impurities and broken ones were removed, and Bai Ning left five hundred catties to give away.The family who helped in the village gave two catties, and the family who didn't help gave one catty. It was a good idea to save children from coming to make trouble.

??The rest will be given to Uncle Tan and the others for twenty catties, Mrs. Xu and the others for twenty catties, grandpa for twenty catties, and the restaurant staff for two catties each. Granny Li and the others are also treated in the same way.

??Mountain grapes are originally used for wine making. The taste is not as good as those grapes of later generations, but the taste is sweet and not sour. It is a rare and good wild fruit.

?? He brewed all the rest of the wine.

?? For this reason, he also searched Xiaobao, and searched all the white sugar and rock candy in his space.

??The inventory that Xiaobao had accumulated for many years in the last days turned into zero in a blink of an eye, and he burst into tears immediately.

??Bai Ning coaxed for a long time, but nothing worked. He considered whether to start sugar production.

??In fact, in this world, the development of sugar is still very advanced. There is maltose, brown sugar, rock sugar, and white sugar.

??Bai Ning doesn't know much advanced knowledge, but he has read a lot of infrastructure articles after the end of the world.After all, when there is no TV and no street to go shopping, that little food for thought.And he just knows how to make sugar, someone has written about it.

?? But it is just a general method, and the specific method needs to be tested again.

?? "Baby, be good, Daddy will make candy for you."

??Xiaobao rubbed his teary eyes and pouted, "I'm not your treasure. Your treasure is there."

??Bai Ning turned his head and looked at Tan Ming who Xiaobao was pointing at. There must be embarrassment. It seemed that after Tan Ming got married, Xiaobao was indeed not his treasure. "Who said that Xiaobao is my treasure."

?? "Little Tiedan said, you have other treasures, you don't sleep with me anymore, you don't hold it high, and you even search for my candy."

??Others listened to Xiaobao's accusation, and held back their laughter. Bai Ning was even more embarrassed, "Who is this little iron egg? How did you know each other?"

?? "Little Tiedan is the son of the tailor. His mother recently gave birth to a younger brother for him, so she has neglected him a little bit." Lady Xu explained.

?? As soon as Mrs. Xu explained, Bai Ning remembered, couldn't help laughing, and lifted Xiaobao up, "Don't listen to him, Xiaobao is Daddy's treasure, and now Daddy is going to give it to Daddy Go buy sugar."

??Xiaobao is also easy to coax, but Bai Ning just bought him two bunches of candied haws, and Xiaobao's mood is beautiful again.

??After this incident, Bai Ning deeply understood his neglect of Xiaobao, and decided to make up for him.So, he took Xiaobao directly to Yunling Village.

??Xiao Bao clapped his hands, "Shall we go play with Brother Dongzi?"

?? "Yes, Xiaobao still remembers Brother Dongzi?"

?? As soon as Bai Ning mentioned Dongzi, Xiaobao had a reflection, "Hey, brother Dongzi also said to take Xiaobao to pick wild fruits, but Xiaobao forgot."
