166 The Fragrance of Wine

Su Fengmao smirked and said, “Yes, we have more wine.”

Su Wenzhe said excitedly, “That’s great! Indeed, today is a special occasion, so let’s drink some wine.”

Su Fengmao looked at Luo Jin’an, then at his daughter. He asked, “Can Jin’an drink wine?”

Su Binglan looked at her husband and thought about his condition. She said, “You can drink a little.”

“How about the three of us drink some wine?”

Shen Qiuhua tied up the cow and turned around. “Your father went to your first uncle’s house today. Your father said he would collect the tables and chairs, but Zhengde insisted he did not want us to pay him.

“Also, your uncle gave your father some wine, but your father could not bear to drink it when he came home in the afternoon. He said he would wait for you to return so he could share the wine with you.”

Su Binglan felt a warmth in her heart when she heard that. She knew her family had an excellent relations.h.i.+p and were very united.

“Father, Mother, we should help Uncle Zhengde’s family more in the future.”

Su Fengmao said, “Of course. We can live a good life when the whole family works together.”

Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai looked at the cow and liked it very much. They took the gra.s.s next to them and fed it to the cow.

Shen Qiuhua washed her hands and said, “I’ll start the fire so we can cook. Oh, your father and I went to the back of the mountain to collect more soybeans and ground them today so we can make more tofu in the morning.”

She remembered that Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin would sell tofu in the morning and finish their work quickly. She thought of grinding more soybeans to make tofu so they could earn more.

Su Fengmao took the firewood and went into the house to light the fire. Then Su Binglan washed her hands and said, “I’ll cook tonight. Since Father, Wenzhe, and Jin’an are drinking tonight, I’ll make some dishes that go well with the wine.”

Liu Yinyin approached her sister-in-law and said, “Binglan, let me a.s.sist you.”

Su Wenzhe said, “Me too.”

Su Binglan looked at Su Wenzhe and said, “Big Brother, you make the sour and spicy potato pancake while I prepare some vinegar peanuts, meat skewers, and braised pork ribs.”

She had bought some extra pork ribs in the afternoon and cooked lunch for her husband and the two little ones. Then she planned to use the remaining ribs to cook a meal for her parents when she got home.

Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin usually followed Su Binglan around. When Su Binglan cooked, they would watch and learn. They had learned about seventy to eighty percent of her methods and dishes.

Since the family often ate sour and spicy potato pancakes, Su Wenzhe knew how to prepare them.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan thought if she were to drink alcohol, she would want to eat some meat skewers alongside it. It was just that it was already a little late for her to prepare the ingredients, so she prepared more convenient ones instead.

Meanwhile, Su Wenzhe could not help but smile when he was cooking.

Su Fengmao looked at his calm son and teased, “I like seeing how happy you are, Wenzhe.”

“Of course, I’m happy, Father. You and Mother don’t know how much we’ve earned today.” Su Wenzhe could not suppress his excitement, nor could he hide it. He had planned to surprise his parents during dinner but could not help but want to mention it.

Shen Qiuhua said, “You’re just selling tofu, so how can your father and I not know how much you’ve earned?”

Although she said that, she was thrilled they could earn more than one silver tael daily. In the past, they might not even be able to earn one silver tael for a year’s worth of grain.

However, they could now earn more than one silver tael a day, which was already excellent. Still, the Su family were not greedy people and felt that people should be content with whatever blessings they had.

Su Wenzhe said smirkingly, “Not just tofu, Mother. We sold something else too.”

Hearing this, Shen Qiuhua thought of what her daughter had said the previous night. “Did Binglan teach you guys how to make those herbal eggs, Chinese hamburgers, and haggis soup?”

She and her husband looked at Su Wenzhe with expectant eyes and waited for his reply.

Su Wenzhe nodded and said, “That’s precisely it, Mother. We started selling sesame buns and haggis soup at noon today. We worked halfway through the afternoon and earned two silver taels from these two dishes alone.

“Together with the tofu from this morning, we earned more than three silver taels in just a day. Still, we only sold a limited amount of buns and haggis. We’ll earn even more when we prepare extra next time.”

Su Wenzhe smiled and shared the good news with his parents; naturally, Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua were delighted to hear it.

Su Fengmao did some calculations and said, “You will undoubtedly earn more next time when you make bigger portions.”

“Yes, I’m preparing to make more in a few days so I can sell more.”

Shen Qiuhua sighed, “In the past, I never thought we could earn so much in a day, but remember that this is what your sister had taught you.”

“I know, Mother. I will never forget Little Sister’s kindness. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t be where I am now.” Su Wenzhe knew what he was doing.

Shen Qiuhua said, “It’s good that you remember.”

Meanwhile, Su Binglan prepared and seasoned the ingredients as she spoke, “You guys are intelligent, diligent, and quick learners. Our business will become increasingly popular, and you guys will earn even more money.”

Su Wenzhe replied, “Yes, Little Sister. You and our parents won’t have to work much when that time comes. I will also hire some maids to serve you.”

Su Fengmao waved his hand and said, “Don’t do that. We are from the countryside, so there’s no need to think about stuff like that. You don’t need to get us maids. We’ll be satisfied as long as you live a good life.”

Shen Qiuhua nodded in agreement. “Your father is right. We just want the family to be healthy and harmonious. That’s more important than anything else.”

As they talked and cooked, the dishes were soon ready. The Su family did not like to waste food, so they had four dishes for dinner. The family ate, talked, and drank happily.

…

Luo Jin’an only took two sips of wine, and his face turned slightly red. His vision also became blurred. Su Binglan thought he was a soul-stirring beauty when she saw him like that. He looked charming and enchanting.

Su Binglan looked into his eyes and asked, “You can’t drink much, can you?”

Luo Jin’an shook his head and said, “It’s okay. Father-in-law wants to drink with me.”

Su Fengmao noticed Luo Jin’an’s expression. He said, “Oh, don’t tell me you can’t drink much, Jin’an. He never has drunk alcohol since he came here. Will he be okay, Binglan?”

He was concerned about his son-in-law’s condition and knew that if Luo Jin’an had trouble drinking alcohol, Su Binglan would have difficulty caring for him.

Su Binglan said, “He’ll be fine. I am full, so I’ll go home with Jin’an now.”

Shen Qiuhia said, “I’ll go and get him something to help him sober up.”

Su Binglan responded, “Hurry up and eat, Mother. You don’t have to worry about us. I can go home and make some hangover soup for Jin’an.”

She helped Luo Jin’an step down from the brick bed and walked to the yard. She looked at her husband and asked, “Are you okay? Can you walk? Do you need my help?”

Su Binglan did not know if Luo Jin’an was drunk or if he could drink. Still, he walked normally and was too quiet.

However, his cheeks were red and looked devilishly charming under the moonlight. He also smelled like alcohol, which made him seem manlier.

Luo Jin’an said lowly, “I’m fine. I just need to walk for a bit.”

Su Binglan could not see Luo Jin’an’s expression because he had lowered his head. Su Binglan could only lean forward and look up at his face. When their eyes met, she discovered her husband’s eyes shone as he looked back at her.

Although, Luo Jin’an’s eyes were a bit intimidating, as if they could bewitch others.
