Chapter 268 Brewing Wine
"Doctor Xue, what is this?" Chu Zhuang frowned, looked at Xue Qing and asked.
Everyone also looked at Xue Yu nervously.
Xue Yu glanced at them and explained: "This is a poison made from aconitum, long-term use will cause heart palpitations and death.
! ”
"hiss
Everyone gasped when they heard the words. Although they had already guessed that the pill was probably poison, they still couldn't help showing a look of shock when Xue Qing really said it.
"I'm going to kill this imperial doctor!"
Yun Zhanfei was furious, he clenched his fists, his eyes were red and he was about to rush out, apparently to let the imperial doctor who prescribed the medicine pay for his life. "Brother, what's the use of going to the imperial doctor now?"
Yunhong came back to his senses, and immediately stopped Yun Zhanfei, the imperial physician who prescribed the medicine was just a pawn, even if he really killed the imperial physician, what's the use?
"Then we just let him go?!" Yun Zhanfei roared angrily.
"Brother, calm down first."
Chu Zhuang patted Yun Zhanfei on the shoulder to tell him not to be so impulsive, then looked at Xue Qing and asked, "Doctor Xue, how is Uncle?"
Other things can be put aside for now, the most urgent thing is to recuperate Yun Tingfeng's body first.
Xue Yu frowned, looked at Yun Tingfeng and asked, "General Yun has taken too much dose, do you often feel palpitations recently?"
Yun Zhanfei calmed down a little, panting heavily, looking at Yun Tingfeng.
"Well, not bad." Yun Tingfeng nodded solemnly while clutching his heart.
Every time he had palpitations before, Yun Tingfeng always thought that he was worried about Yunmengxi, but now it seems that this is not the case
.
This is someone who wants his life!
Yun Tingfeng didn't expect that he survived such a dangerous battlefield, but this little Yaowan almost killed him.
命国
"General Yun's condition is a little serious. According to the current pulse condition, if he continues to take the pills, at most six more pills, his heart will not be able to bear it, and he will die of palpitations."
Xue Yu opened the medicine box, found a few medicines from it, and then said, "I'll boil the medicine first, and let General Yun detoxify the poison."
"Doctor Xue, come with me!" Yun Mengxi said hastily.
Yun Mengxi took Xue Qing down to boil medicine, Yun Tingfeng sat with a grim expression covering his heart.
"Father, you don't feel well, why didn't you tell us?" Yunhong pursed his lips and said, "If something happens to you, then we..."
Yun Tingfeng sighed, he didn't want to worry them, so he kept it secret.
And he thought it was just heart palpitations, not a big problem, who would have thought that it would be so serious.
Xue Yu quickly prepared the medicine and brought it over. Not long after Yun Tingfeng drank it, his body felt much lighter, especially his heart, which was not beating as fast as before.
"This medicine has to be taken continuously for a month, and after a month, the toxins in the body have been expelled, and then the internal organs can be recuperated.
Xue Yu wrote down the prescription, looked at Yun Tingfeng and said: "General Yun, remember not to get angry during this time, and try to use less force as much as possible, it is better to rest."
"Well, okay, I see." Yun Tingfeng nodded gratefully.
"Doctor Xue, thank you so much." Yun Mengxi and others also thanked Xue Qing.
Yun Tingfeng's disease would be really difficult to find if someone else came in, after all, who would think of ordinary doctors to check the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician?
"You're welcome, this is just my job." Xue Qing waved his hand, not caring about it.
Xue Qing didn't stay long, since he was done with the illness, there was nothing to do with him here, and Yun Zhanfei personally sent him back
.
"Father, who do you think did this?" Yun Hong didn't shy away from Chu Zhuang and asked directly.
Yun Tingfeng squinted his eyes, and said with a dark light in his eyes: "The only ones who will kill me are those few people."
It's just that it's hard to say who will be among these people.
"You send someone to keep an eye on that imperial physician and see who he has been in contact with, then we will know who is behind the scenes." Yun Tingfeng looked at Yun Hong and said.
"Okay, I will arrange someone to watch over the imperial physician." Yunhong nodded and agreed.
"Chu Zhuang, we have prepared all the raw materials you mentioned, let's start making wine."
Yun Tingfeng didn't dwell on this matter for too long, looked at Chu Zhuang and said.
The main purpose of bringing Chu Zhuang over today is to teach them how to make wine. Other things are not as important as this one.
"Well, good." Chu Zhuang nodded in response.
A group of people came to the yard prepared by Yun Tingfeng, and the grapes had been placed inside. It was August, which was the season for grapes to ripen, so these grapes were all freshly picked.
"So sweet!"
Chu Zhuang tasted one casually, and his eyes lit up. The taste of this grape is almost the same as that of the grapes grown in his space, which is almost hard to find in modern society.
"We specially selected the best quality grapes." Yunhong explained.
Since wine is to be made, it is natural to choose the best raw materials.
Chu Zhuang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Then let's start."
Chu Zhuang demonstrated once, and Yunhong took a pen and paper to record some small details.
"The hoarfrost on the grape skins cannot be washed off. The fermentation of grapes depends on this hoarfrost."
"The grapes are sweet enough, so there is no need to add sugar. If the selected grapes are not sweet enough, you can add some rock sugar."
"The grape solution cannot be filled to the brim, it is better to fill it to two-thirds of the wooden barrel. During the later fermentation process, a large amount of gas will be generated in the wooden barrel, which will increase the liquid level. If it is filled very full, it will overflow .”
In Chu Zhuang's careful explanation, a barrel of wine was preliminarily completed.
"Let it ferment for 24 hours now, and then we will proceed to the next steps. Put a lid on it, don't need to seal it, and don't let dust fall into it."
Chu Zhuang stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. He was a little tired after all the busy work, but Yun Tingfeng and the others were afraid that they would disturb Chu Zhuang, so they didn't dare to come forward to help.
Yunmengxi came forward with a handkerchief to wipe off Chu Zhuang's sweat, and asked distressedly, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately, I'm not very tired." Chu Zhuang smiled and shook his head, comforting him softly.
Yun Tingfeng looked at the wooden barrel, thought for a while and asked, "How long does it take for this wine to brew?"
"Generally speaking, you can drink it in one month, but if you want to taste better, you still have to age it. The longer the aging time, the better the taste." Chu Zhuang explained.
"Now is the time for grape production. If we want to make it, we have to hurry up and buy the raw materials." Yun Hong looked at Yun Tingfeng and said.
Yun Tingfeng nodded, if he acted quickly, they could produce the first batch of wine this year!
"Hong'er, send people to buy vineyards, and buy all good quality vineyards!"
Yun Tingfeng deserved to be extravagant, and immediately prepared to buy the entire vineyard.
"Well, good." Yunhong nodded and agreed. Their Yun family also has some wealth, so they dare not say if they want to buy other treasures, but it is not a problem to buy a few good vineyards.
Chu Zhuang stayed at Yun's house for a day. Apart from discussing the wine, he also discussed the engagement with Yun Tingfeng and the others.
According to their thinking, the engagement should be low-key and simple, only exchanging geng posts, and then Chu Zhuang will hold a banquet. The family will have a simple meal, and when they get married in the coming day, they will have a big banquet.
After all, Jing was just engaged on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was because time was too tight, and they didn't have time to make a fuss.
By the time Chu Zhuang returned to the Chu residence, the sky had already dimmed.
"This is your reward today. There are 32 households in total, so I will give you 32 copper coins."
Guo Wen took out 32 copper coins, placed them in front of Ono and counted them one by one for him to see.
Ono checked that there was nothing wrong, then put the copper plate into a tattered purse, and carefully put it close to his bosom.
"It's just around here. Don't worry, I will definitely find out more about them tomorrow!" Ono patted his chest to protect him.
Testimony.
"Well, good, thank you very much!" Guo Wen nodded and thanked Ono.
Ono scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "You're welcome, you've already paid."
Speaking of which, this is Ono's first job. Because of their young age, even if they want to do things, no one will use them. They don't want to sell themselves as slaves, so they can only rely on Begging for a living.
"Then I'll go first, Ming. I'll come find you again!"
Ono took the money and didn't keep much, so he was about to leave.
When Chu Zhuang came back, he happened to meet Xiaoye coming out. He looked at the sky, frowned and said, "Xiaoye, why don't you stay tonight, curfew is coming soon."
"It's okay, I know the curfew patrol time, and I will avoid them." Ono waved his hand and said indifferently.
They beg all year round, and although they have a place to live, sometimes they inevitably spend the night on the street, so they are all too familiar with the teams that evade these patrols.
Seeing this, Chu Zhuang didn't force himself, he looked at Xiaolan and said, "Go and take out the things."
"Yes, Master!"
Xiaolan went down in a hurry, and after a while she came over with a bag, which contained the pancakes that Chu Zhuang asked her to make before leaving.
Chu Zhuang took the cake and put it in Ono's hands, saying: "Only when you are full can you have the strength to help me find someone. This is considered a work meal for you to do things for me."
Ono's hand was pressed down by the heavy burden, but luckily he held it in time so that it didn't fall to the ground.
'Master Chu, you..." Xiaoye pursed his lips, looking at the bundle in his hand, not knowing what to say.
"I'm older than you, just call me Big Brother Chu."
Chu Zhuang patted Xiao Ye's shoulder and said, "Go, if you don't leave, the sky will be completely dark."
"Well! Goodbye, Brother Chu!"
Ono came out of the Chu residence with the bundle tightly in his hands. After walking a certain distance, he heard the sound of the door closing behind him. Then he stopped and glanced back.
"Boss, how did you get the money?!" Xiaocao came out from nowhere, looked at Xiaoye and asked.
"Let's go back and talk about it!" Ono looked away, glanced at Xiaoji, and strode forward.
"Boss, wait for me!" Seeing this, Xiaocao hurriedly followed.
The figures of the two disappeared into the faint night.
