Although Zhao Ping mentioned the effect, Zhao Jie thought of saving time.
Zhao Ping glanced at the crowd and found that the others were dumbfounded. His mother frowned, obviously hoping to get the answer to Zhao Jie's question, so he clenched his right hand into a fist and waved hard to say the answer that everyone was eager to know: "The key is to keep it for a long time and properly If you keep it properly, there will be no problems for three or even five years.”
Wang Yiniang, Er Niang, Cuizhu, and Jiang Ying also said impatiently: "Little Master (Master), please tell me what to do. I will definitely obey your instructions."
But Li Hanmei looked down at Wizui, while Lan'er, Zhao Yiniang and the others were all excited and chattering non-stop. Even her mother was looking at him curiously.
Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, Zhao Ping finally said: "The way is to pick the flowers, and then..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ping heard his mother's voice: "Ping'er, come here."
Zhao Ping had no choice but to obediently come to his mother's seat. As soon as he walked closer, Zhao Ping felt a strong pain in his ears!
It turned out that my mother used her special trick of pulling off the ears again. Zhao Ping felt his ears spinning while hearing his mother scolding him: "Naughty son, how could I give birth to a wicked son like you who can destroy flowers with such cruelty? Others cherish flowers, protect flowers, and love flowers." Flowers, raising flowers, pity flowers, loving flowers, appreciating flowers, feeling pain for flowers, you son of a bitch actually want to destroy the flowers with your hands. How could I give birth to such a misbegotten son like you. Son of a bitch, you must explain it clearly to your mother today, Otherwise, my mother will have to punish you."
His mother's words became more and more severe, and Zhao Ping felt his ears becoming more and more painful.
Zhao Ping had no choice but to cover his ears with one hand and said to everyone: "As you command, mother, let the child talk. Mother, think about it, no matter how beautiful the flowers are, there will be times when they bloom and fail. Once the flowers fade, the fragrance will naturally dissipate." But our family has preserved the soul of the flower - the fragrance forever, so that when people smell the fragrance, they will naturally think of the beautiful time of the flower itself. Mother, my child is not destroying the flower with his hands, but destroying it with his hands. The soul of the flower is preserved forever. The child has done a great job. He is just cleverly using another method of protecting flowers, appreciating flowers and loving flowers. Mother, please put down your hands, my child does hurt."
After his mother heard this, she fell into deep thought without realizing it, and her hands relaxed unconsciously. Zhao Ping took the opportunity to get rid of his mother's abuse.
Seeing everyone being deceived by Zhao Ping, Zhao Jie smiled slightly, saw everyone nodding, and took the opportunity to say: "Since the mistress has no objection, I would like to ask the young man to give a specific method."
Zhao Ping glanced around. There were too many people here, especially children, so it was difficult to keep them, so he said: "Now you go to plant and look for flowers first. Now is the season for planting and looking for flowers. Only after planting and looking for flowers can the soul of the flower be taken away." Stay. Remember, flowers cannot be mixed together, remember flowers of all kinds must be together.”
Zhao Jie understood what Zhao Ping meant and wanted all the children of the Wang family and Zhao family to go out to find and plant flowers.
Zhao Ping pointed at the steamed wine and asked Wang Qihu and the others: "When can you make this wine steamer?"
Wang Qihu, Wang Qibao, and Wang Qishi looked at the design drawings carefully. The three of them looked at each other, then nodded to each other, and then Wang Qihu said: "Young man, as long as the materials are complete, there will be no problem in one day."
Zhao Jie said happily: "It just so happens that we have imported a lot of iron this time, and there is also an iron workshop. I will take you to have a look. You three, please follow me and have a look."
The next day, Zhao Ping and his disciples were imparting knowledge after practicing.
Since the school is under construction, the backyard dam is now temporarily used as a practice place, and the study room is temporarily used as a primary school. The students are mainly the Zhao family and the Wang family. As for the children of the tenants, they can only be admitted after the school is repaired.
As for the kindergarten school, it is in the wing opposite.
My mother’s students are Jiang Ying and Li Hanmei.
While Zhao Ping was lecturing, he would occasionally tell a short story to keep the students entertained.
At this time, Zhao Tian, the wife of housekeeper Zhao Jie, came running all the way.
Seeing Zhao Ping, her now fat body shook twice, and she said breathlessly: "It's done, it's done, little official."
"What's done?"
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be stunned, then put down the book and moved a stool to signal his aunt to take a rest.
Zhao Tian sat down, and the stool made a "chichi" sound in protest. Zhao Tian's life in Zhaojiazhuang has improved greatly, and her figure has rapidly developed from slim in the past to wealthy.
Now he took a breath, and then said: "Xiao Langjun, it was the wine steamer that made it. Now wait for Xiao Langjun to steam the wine."
Zhao Ping signaled Cuizhu to continue teaching, and he jumped up and went to a newly built room in the front yard of Zhaojiazhuang. A wine distiller had been installed in it. It had a distillation device (pot) about three feet long, wide and high. The six-foot long and half-foot thick condenser is connected to a water tank about one meter long and wide that is taller than a person. It is the source of condensed water, a concave condenser, and a wine jar is placed under the condenser. Below the distillation unit is a coal stove.
Zhao Jie kept walking around the wine steamer, looking at it, and even checked with his hands whether there was air leakage at the corners.
Brother Wang Qihu's eyes were red. It was obvious that he had not slept all night, but he was very excited and looked at Zhao Ping who came in. : Zhao Ping entered and hurriedly saluted Wang Qihu and the others. The three men immediately stepped aside and bowed in return. Wang Qihu said, "The young man is so disrespectful to the little men. How can little men be worthy of such a great gift from the young man?"
Zhao Ping still saluted, looked at the three of them and said in a deep voice: "Brother Wang, you didn't rest all night, and unexpectedly made the wine steamer. Brother Wang, you are so sincere and kind, how can you not be respected."
While returning the gift, Wang Qihu said sheepishly: "Thank you, Mr. Xiaolang. The reason why the little people are so anxious to make it is to see if it can really turn into the clear wine that Mr. Xiaolang said." , the other little guy is also a good drinker. He also wants to taste the kind of wine that the young man mentioned."
Zhao Ping looked at them sincerely, nodded and said, "You are masters. I believe your efforts will be rewarded today. Bring the rice wine and steam it now."
Zhao Tian and Zhao Yun poured several jars of rice wine into the steamer together, and Zhao Jie lit the fire himself.
After one stick of incense, the rich aroma of wine already hit the nostrils, and then gradually spread to half of the room. Zhao Jie and Wang Qihu kept sniffing with their noses, and kept sighing that it smells good.
About an hour later, Zhao Jie sniffed the outlet of the condenser with his nose, and then nodded.
Then Zhao Jie looked at Zhao Ping and asked: "Xiao Langjun, there is not much smell of alcohol anymore. Is it okay?"
Zhao Ping also stepped forward to smell it, then nodded and said, "Okay."
Zhao Jie scooped up a spoonful of it. It was as clear and bright as Zhao Ping said, without any impurities.
And it also has a strong aroma of wine!
The Wang brothers' Adam's apples kept moving up and down, and their saliva almost flowed out.
But Zhao Ping's words made them even more alarmed.
Zhao Ping took it, tasted it, frowned slightly and said, "The alcohol is not strong enough, so it needs to be distilled again."
This was already unexpected by everyone. They did not expect that Zhao Ping's requirements would be even stricter.
Zhao Jie and the Wang brothers also wanted to see what wine with a higher alcohol content looked like.
After the second distillation, the aroma of the wine was stronger than the first time, and the aroma of the wine had spread from half the room to the entire room.
Zhao Jie touched his head, leaned his right hand on the stove, and said, "This wine is so powerful. Just the smell of it makes me feel dizzy."
After saying that, he held his forehead with his right hand, touched the wall with his left hand, and staggered out.
Brothers Zhao Tian and Zhao Yun kept flapping their noses with their hands to drive away the smell of the wine. They looked at Zhao Jie and said, "This wine is really powerful. Children feel the same way."
Brother Wang Qihu watched the wine at the end of the condenser tube flowing out without blinking, then moved his mouth a few times, and then looked at Zhao Ping.
Zhao Ping found it funny. He glanced at Brother Wang Qihu and said, "There should be no problem with the wine this time. Just drink it if you like it."
Brother Wang Qihu's alcohol bug has long been seduced by the aroma of wine. Frankly speaking, the purpose of making the wine vessel is to take the first sip of wine. The first time it was distilled, he felt like drinking it. However, Zhao Ping said that the alcohol content was not enough, so he had to Strongly tolerates the irritation of alcohol bug.
Brother Wang Qihu immediately found several large bowls, filled seven bowls with ladles, brought one bowl first and asked Zhao Ping: "Young Master, please drink."
Zhao Ping shook his head and said: "I'm still young, so I can taste wine, but there's no need to drink."
Then Wang Qihu asked the housekeeper Zhao Jie: "Master housekeeper, would you like a drink?"
Butler Zhao Jie shook his head outside the room, looked back at them and said, "I'm dizzy and don't want to drink for the time being."
Wang Qihu turned to the Zhao Tian brothers, who shook their heads together.
The three brothers Wang Qihu laughed loudly, picked up their wine bowls, touched each other, looked at each other, and shouted together: "Done."
After saying that, the three of them poured the entire bowl of wine directly into their mouths.
Zhao Ping couldn't help being surprised. This was a high-altitude liquor with about 60 degrees, not the rice wine with only about 10 degrees.
I was about to stop it but found it was too late!
As soon as Wang Qihu swallowed it, he immediately covered his stomach and shouted: "No, my stomach is on fire."
Wang Qibao covered his head with his right hand and swung his left hand around trying to grab a supporting object and said: "It's so fierce, I'm so dizzy."
After saying this, his body shook non-stop, and Zhao Tian immediately stepped forward to support him.
Wang Qishi grabbed his throat tightly with both hands, his face turned red, and he murmured: "Drinking cuts your throat, it's uncomfortable, it's uncomfortable!"
After saying that, his body kept shaking, and the bowl in his hand fell to the ground, smashing into pieces with a "bang"!
Then, there were two more "bang, bang" sounds of the wine bowl breaking!
The three of them were swaying and their bodies were crumbling!
Zhao Yun and Zhao Jie hurriedly supported the two of them together, and then sent the three of them to the lounge to rest. Soon the three of them started snoring.
Although the three of them drank a lot and were called drunkards in Wangjiazhuang, this was the first time they tasted highly spirits and they swallowed it straight from the bowl!
What's more, the three of them stayed up all night and worked overtime last night and were exhausted. In addition, they had a hasty breakfast, so it was normal for them to be knocked down by a bowl of wine.
Zhao Ping looked at the three of them and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
