Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Binglan listened to her uncle and cousin while thinking.

Su Fengzhang said, “Don’t worry, Binglan. There’s a pot maker in the neighboring town who can make pots. It’s a little far, but using an oxcart will be manageable.”

“That’s right, Cousin Binglan, “Su Wenxian nodded. My father and I can do it since it’s so easy.”

Su Wenxian was concerned his cousin would find it troublesome and give up on the winery.

Su Fengzhang was also anxious. He was now excited and wanted to make wine as soon as possible. He would feel proud if he could make a fragrant wine. “Binglan, leave it to me. We want to make wine,” Su Fengzhang said.

After some thought, Su Binglan said, “Uncle Fengzhang, how’s the family in Willow Village that used to make pots?”

Su Fengzhang initially needed clarification, so he asked, “What do you mean?

Ding Wan understood what her niece meant and reminded her, “Binglan, do you mean what the family is like and how they deal with people?”

Su Fengzhang replied, “The couple is sincere, and their two sons are dutiful. However, people who bought pots from the family typically said they would pay the family later and take the pots first.

“To be frank, the couple is too kind to let people do that. Some don’t even pay for the pots at the end of the day and drag on the payment.

Su Wenxiuan was stunned. “Such people exist?”

Su Fengzhang nodded. “Of course, there are. The people from our village are good, but those from other villages aren’t like us. They’re selfish and will take advantage of others.

“I pity that family,” Su Wenxian said.

“Too many people don’t have it easy,” Su Fengzhang sighed.

‘Many can barely handle their families’ affairs, let alone help others with theirs.’

Su Binglan said, “Uncle Fengzhang, let’s not go to neighboring villages to buy wine jars. Instead, you should ask the family from Willow Village if they’ll start selling again. We’ll buy from them.”

She knew there was a limit to what she could do, but she would still help as many people as possible. However, she would only help those who were of good character.

Ding Wan, her husband, and her son heard this and understood that Su Binglan wanted to help the family from Willow Village.

“Sure, don’t worry,” Su Fengzhang said, “I’ll ask around first and inform you when I get back.”

“Okay, Uncle Fengzhang.”

The next step was to make wine. Su Fengzhang and his son were interested in winemaking, so their eyes sparkled.

“We can make many types of wine from various fruits like grapes,” Su Binglan explained patiently.

The father-son duo was stunned as they listened to Su Binglan. She had mentioned many variations of wine they were unfamiliar with.

“Fruits and grapes? Can we make wine with grapes?” Su Wenxian felt clueless about this and did not understand much of his cousin’s words.

Su Binglan thought of many things when discussing wine. “That’s right. We can make wine with grapes and various fruits. Wines typically taste sweet, and even women can drink them.

“We can also make fruit juice without alcohol. It’ll be like a soft drink that children can enjoy. Many fruit wines have various flavors based on what ingredients we use, and…”

She could not stop talking about wine, mainly because her uncle and cousin were interested.

Ding Wan initially thought winemaking had nothing to do with her and did not understand it. However, she became increasingly interested as she listened. She added, “I didn’t know about fruit wine. It sounds so amazing that I can’t wait to try it.”

“That’s good,” Su Binglan said thoughtfully.

Su Fengzhang’s eyes brightened as he listened to his niece, especially when he heard how many variations of wines there were. “I only know most use grains to make wine, but I’ve never considered using fruits.”

Ding Wan said, “That’s because we’re unfamiliar with winemaking. Still, if Binglan says we can, then we can.”

“You’re right,” Su Fengzhang said proudly, “After all, Binglan is from the Su family and is brilliant.”

Ding Wan noticed her husband’s proud expression and could not help but laugh out loud. Su Binglan followed suit, making the atmosphere rather uplifting.

Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian continued to listen attentively, wanting to hear more from Su Binglan.

Su Binglan continued, “Honestly, the better quality wines in town are still unrefined when I drink them. If I add two more steps into the process, our wine will be purer and more fragrant.”

“What are the two extra steps?” Su Fengzhang knew nothing about winemaking but was very interested and wanted to learn.

“I’ll teach you and Cousin Wenxian how to make wine later, so you’ll learn the process in due time,” Su Binglan said.

Su Wenxian cupped his hands and said, “I’d like to thank you in advance, Cousin Binglan.”

“You don’t have to be so formal,” Su Binglan said,” I need you and Uncle Fengzhang to help me manage the winery, after all. I can only feel at ease if you two help me.”

“Don’t worry, Binglan. We’ll take good care of your winery,” Su Fengzhang said earnestly.

“Yeah, you don’t have to worry, especially since I’ve learned some martial arts,”

Su Wenxian added.

Su Binglan raised her brows. “You know martial arts too?”

“Yeah, but I’ve only learned a little,” Su Wenxian replied.

“If you want to learn kung fu, you can learn it alongside my third brother when you have the time,” Su Binglan said.

Su Wenwu wanted to learn kung fu from his sister, but Luo Jin’an did not want him to tire Su Binglan out. Hence, Luo Jin’an volunteered to teach Su Wenwu instead.

Since Su Wenwu had been learning from Luo Jin’an for quite some time, Su Binglan thought Su Wenxian could tag along. After all, it was good to learn self-defense.

Su Wenxian smiled. “I’ll take you up on that, Cousin Binglan. It feels good to have a reliable cousin. Not only do you know a lot, but you can also teach me many things.”

Ding Wan laughed. “Do you think all young ladies are like your cousin? Our

Binglan is brilliant and kind. That’ s why she’s helping us.”

“Of course, I know my Cousin Binglan is the best,” Su Wenxian replied, “Others will envy me if I tell them about this.”

Su Binglan chuckled. “Don’t say that, Cousin Wenxian. I’m about to blush.”

“Hahaha.” Everyone talked and laughed, making the atmosphere more lively and harmonious.

After talking for a while longer, Su Binglan noticed it was getting late and went home.

Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua went home in their oxcart during the evening. Earlier that afternoon, Li Shi returned his parents to Northern Song Village and returned the oxcart to the Su couple.

Before leaving, he helped the Su couple load their oil barrels onto the oxcart. Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao barely needed to do anything. Indeed, Li Shi was strong.

Moreover, Li Shi tied the barrels securely so they would not spill when the older couple drove the oxcart home. Li Shi had initially planned to send the older couple home, but Shen Qiuhua persuaded him to tend to his parents instead.

After reaching home, the Su couple moved their oil barrels into the warehouse. When Su Binglan returned, she could smell the oils’ fragrance. It smelled like the older couple had fried the rapeseed and successfully extracted its oil. The fragrance differed from peanut oil..
