If the family knew how to make wine, they would have done it long ago, and their lives would have already improved. Those who knew how to make wine typically came from a well-off family because the wine was expensive. However, it would be a family secret pa.s.sed down for generations.

Su Wenxiu was stunned as he put down his chopsticks and said, “I heard it’s very complicated to brew wine and that ordinary people can’t learn how.”

Shen Qiuhua was quiet before saying softly, “A recipe for a good wine usually comes from wealthier families. Such people relied on brewing wine to make a fortune and acc.u.mulated a family business those days. Then they would become wealthy.”

After pondering for a while, Liu Yinyin added, “I also heard that families like these view their secret recipe as more important than their lives. That’s because keeping the secret recipe is equivalent to keeping the family business.”

Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin ran their own business with many customers, so they would discuss similar things while eating. Liu Yinyin had heard many things and was no longer as dull as she used to be. She had become more knowledgeable.

Since the atmosphere at home was good, everyone would sincerely express their opinions. Su Binglan knew her family was saying these things for her good. She swirled the wine in her cup and said, “I can make wine.”

Her words shocked everyone, and they stopped drinking and eating to look at Su Binglan seriously.

Su Fengmao was so excited that he slammed the table. “My dear daughter, what did you say? Did I mishear you? You know how to make wine?”

Su Binglan nodded thoughtfully. “Yes, Father, I’m telling the truth. I can make wine. If you don’t believe me, I’ll brew some for you. I guarantee it’ll be better than the wine we’re drinking now.”

She could brew many things, including grape wines, fruit wines, and even milk tea. After all, drinking milk tea during the winter was good. These things were always at the back of her mind.

The main reason was that men had fewer job opportunities than women. Therefore, opening a winery would give the men a job to do. Besides, Su Binglan’s father and brothers could then drink good wine.

The family would not have to be so reluctant to spend money on wine and have more opportunities to drink it.

Nonetheless, Su Binglan had been too busy. If she had known, she would have brought some home for her father and brothers when she went to town. However, drinking wine that the family brewed would be rea.s.suring.

“You’re amazing, Little Sister!” Su Wenzhe exclaimed.

Liu Yinyin caught on to the main point and added, “Little Sister, is the milk tea you drink you mention a type of wine?”

“No, milk tea is a good beverage for women too. It’s delicious. You’ll know what it tastes like when I make it, Sister-in-law.”

Liu Yinyin could not help but laugh. “Then I want to drink it.”

She thought she would enjoy it.

For a moment, the family stopped eating and discussed making wine. Everyone was enthusiastic and started talking excitedly.

Su Binglan looked at everyone’s enthusiasm and noticed the food was about to turn cold. She said, “Making wine isn’t something we can do overnight since there are many things to prepare.

“I must prepare for the embroidery shop first, then s.h.i.+ft my focus to the winery. I won’t be able to handle both at once because of all the preparations I must make. Let’s continue eating.”

Everyone only remembered to eat after Su Binglan reminded them to. The family ate ramen and vegetables with great relish, but their thoughts had drifted to wine brewing.

Su Fengmao drank the wine in his cup and thought it tasted good, but when he thought about his daughter saying she could make better wine, he could not help but wonder how much better it would be than the one he had.

Just the thought of it made him excited.

Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an returned to their room after eating and had a good night’s sleep. Su Binglan had breakfast the following morning and left for the mountain with her basket.

She planned to go to the back of the mountain to see if there was anything she needed. She first went to where the Su family found soybeans and discovered that many more had grown independently. She had also put some of those beans in her pocket dimension.

She looked around and found nothing different besides the typical soybeans, chestnut trees, and chilies. She had even placed the chilies in her pocket dimension, which overgrew. Then she had to store them in several warehouses in her pocket dimension.

She had enough chilies, but she mainly looked for something she could use to extract oil from, so she walked deeper into the forest.

The villagers had said that the mountain’s depths were perilous because wild animals lurked there. However, Su Binglan found no wild animals as she continued walking.

She filled her mind with thoughts of oil extraction as she continued onward. As she walked further in, she felt the temperature getting warmer. It was no longer as cold. Instead, it was like the early autumn season.

She felt something standing before her calling out to her, and her heart started beating faster and faster. She wondered if there was something she genuinely needed there.

Su Binglan continued forward and walked quickly. After a long while, she saw an expansive field before her, primarily consisting of rapeseed. It was a beautiful scene, and her eyes lit up.

“These are rapeseed. With such a vast field, I can use them to extract oil. Now we won’t have to worry about running out of cooking oil.” She was excited and used her pocket dimension to collect and store the rapeseeds.

However, she could not handle that much rapeseed alone because the field was too wide-ranged. The rapeseed had already fallen to the ground, and the seeds had ripened.

Since rapeseeds were still present at the back of the mountain during that season, they were spring rapeseed. Since the temperature at the mountain was warmer and felt like autumn, it caused the rapeseed to ripen.

Su Binglan could teach everyone how to plant and harvest rapeseed when she returned. One could also eat rapeseed as vegetables and extract oil from their seeds. These were good things, after all.

While Su Binglan was busy collecting rapeseed, Ding Wan was busy early in the morning. Ding Wan recalled her niece talking about the embroidery shop, so she went to talk to a few villagers who knew needlework.

She left relatively early and went to Zhou Wen’e’s house first while Dong Xiaolei and her mother had breakfast together and started to get busy.

“Is Wen’e here?” Ding Wan stood at the door and called out.

When Dong Xiaolei heard Ding Wan’s voice, she hurriedly went to the door. When she saw Ding Wan, she said, “Yes, Madam Ding, my mother is home.”

Zhou Wen’e was home, feeding the chickens and ducks, even though her daughter typically did those things in the past. That was because Zhou Wen’e had a weak body.

However, her body gradually recovered after visiting Su Binglan’s clinic and taking her prescribed medicine. Now, she busied herself helping her daughter.

Dong Xiaolei hurriedly ran into the house. “Mother, Madam Ding is here looking for you.”

Zhou Wen’e quickly put down the chicken-feeding bowl and returned. When she saw Ding Wan, she was thrilled and wanted to reach out to pull Ding Wan. Then Zhou Wen’e remembered that she had just fed the livestock and rubbed her hands on her clothes. She helplessly said, “Madam Ding!”

Zhou Wen’e was so happy to see Ding Wan that she did not know what to say. Now, everyone in the village knew that people would benefit from having a good relations.h.i.+p with the Su family.

Dong Xiaolei’s father had joined the army long ago, and she did not know what had happened to him. Meanwhile, Zhou Wen’e only did what was best for her daughter.

“h.e.l.lo, Wen’e. I came to discuss something with you.” Ding Wan stepped forward to help Zhou Wen’e up.

Zhou Wen’e hurriedly said, “Quick, come inside, Madam Ding. I’m sorry that the house is a little messy since I didn’t have time to clean up. Please don’t mind the mess.”

Baskets, peanuts, and corn were piled together and scattered around the house..
