Chapter 1075 One of the Gifts for Brother Qin
After hearing this, Gu Jinli smiled disdainfully and said: "They can learn a lesson if they can. If they can't learn it, we will report it directly to the official next time and won't let the clan leaders of the two families solve it."
She will not be lenient if she dares to do it again after being given a chance.
"Jingzi, has the wine been filtered?" Gu Jinli asked Ye Jingzi while preparing the equipment for distilling alcohol.
Yes, she is going to make disinfectant alcohol. This is one of the gifts for Brother Qin's nineteenth birthday.
Brother Qin is a soldier. If he can't be saved, he will go to the battlefield. He will suffer from sword wounds, and the most important thing for sword wounds is disinfection. But there is no anti-inflammatory medicine here. With the current medicinal materials and conditions, it is difficult for her to make effective anti-inflammatory medicine, so she can only use disinfectant alcohol instead.
Alcohol is the easiest medicine to disinfect wounds, and it can save many people. Therefore, she has long wanted to do it. She drew several pictures of distillation equipment, and then went to the county to find a porcelain workshop and spent a lot of money. Fire the distillation tube, and now the equipment is finally ready to make alcohol.
But before making alcohol, they need to filter the wine more than twice.
Ancient wine is different from modern wine. It is turbid wine. If you want to distill alcohol, you must filter the turbid wine several times and steam it again. Only after you get the wine with higher purity can you distill it. Out alcohol. Otherwise, the distilled alcohol will not be of sufficient concentration and will not be able to disinfect and sterilize.
Therefore, she bought three mule carts of drinks and came back, which frightened the third grandma, thinking that she hated getting married, thinking that the day of her engagement ceremony with Saburo was coming soon, so she bought drinks and came back to entertain the guests.
But after knowing that she was going to use wine to steam alcohol, she asked with a confused look: "What is that? Xiaoyu, you are tossing these weird things again, don't waste it. The wine you bought is made from grain, San A pound of grain only produces a pound of wine. If you waste three carts of wine, you are wasting thirty carts of grain, and you will be struck by lightning."
Gu Jinli: "..."
To be honest, it is the fifth month of the lunar calendar, and there are thunder and lightning at every turn. I am really scared when you keep saying that.
She explained it to the third grandma twice, but the third grandma still refused to listen and told her not to waste it.
Gu Jinli knew that the third grandma had been poor all her life and had escaped famine. She hated people wasting food. Seeing that he couldn't explain it to her, he had to find old doctor Wu and ask him to tell the third grandma in person.
Old Doctor Wu came up with the reason that alcohol can save lives, and this made the Third Grandma relent and agree.
However, the third grandmother still told Gu Jinli: "Let's make a cart first. If it doesn't work, forget it. Keep the rest of the wine and use it to entertain guests later, so it won't be wasted."
Gu Jinli nodded again: "Yeah, yeah, don't worry. If you can't distill out alcohol that can disinfect after spending a whole cart of wine, then I don't have the ability, so I won't do it anymore."
After hearing this, the third grandma was completely relieved, and finally told her: "Don't stay in the pharmaceutical workshop all the time, take the time to do some needlework for Sanlang. Look at your eldest sister, she made a lot of clothes and shoes for Brother Wu, you I just embroidered a purse, I’m too lazy to blush.”
Regarding this point, Dr. Wu deeply agreed: "Well, Xiaoyu girl is indeed too lazy. If she was not lazy, she would have made the alcohol long ago, and there is no need to wait until now."
Gu Jinli felt that she was wronged. She was already very diligent, but they still thought she was lazy. Doesn’t she just love to sleep in and listen to gossip? I still work very hard when I have to work.
But these two were grandparents, so what could Gu Jinli do but sneak away to his pharmacy to prepare alcoholic beverages. Today, he was able to do it.
Ye Jingzi replied: "I have filtered the wine with cotton cloth more than twice according to the little boss's instructions. The yard on the other side of the heavy rain is also bringing people to filter the wine, so don't worry."
He brought two bowls of wine over and asked, "The ceramic bowl is filtered in our yard, and the wooden bowl is filtered wine from Heavy Rain. Let me see if it can be used."
There was too much wine, and filtering took up space, so we had to separate two yards to do it.
Gu Jinli took two bowls of wine and saw that the turbid wine had become clear. He nodded with satisfaction and picked up the bowl again. He took two sips of each bowl of wine and frowned. The degree was not good. It had to be purified before it could be distilled. Alcohol.
Seeing this, Xiao Ji hurriedly said: "Xiao Boss, how can you drink? If my wife sees it, we will be scolded."
The host's wife said that the young host has been engaged and will get married in more than a year and start to take care of his body. Otherwise, it will be difficult to have children by then. The young host will not be allowed to eat anything raw, cold or spicy.
Gu Jinli smiled: "If you don't tell me, how will my mother know? Besides, I just took a few sips to taste it so I can estimate the purification time. It's nothing."
After settling in Dafeng Village, she began to take medicine to recuperate the health of her family members. Over the past few years, her family members are all in good health. Her body is even better. Her aunt is never late and doesn't have stomachaches. She can definitely give birth to as many children as she wants. Ms. Cui's worries are in vain.
"Little master, my servant can drink it for you." Erqing said. Before she came to serve the little master, she was specially told by the master that it was wine and medicine. It would be okay for the little master to take a few bites, but if she took too much , she had to eat for her little boss, and she couldn't let him ruin her body.
Gu Jinli nodded: "Well, you should try it too, and remember the spiciness. When it is purified, you and I will drink it together. The higher the spiciness, the higher the purity of the wine."
"Yes." Er Qing responded and wrote down everything Gu Jinli said. He admired Gu Jinli more and more in his heart. The little boss knew so much and was a very powerful person.
"Let's get started." Gu Jinli said, and started to move with Ye Jingzi, Xiao Ji, and Er Qing. They poured the filtered wine into the pot, then turned a large clay pot like a bathtub upside down on the pot, and poured glutinous rice into it. Rice paste mixed with rice flour seals the joint.
Then they started to light a fire to purify the alcohol content.
The pharmacy that Gu Jinli used to develop convenience medicine was very large and well-stocked. It even had a stove, so they could light a fire directly inside.
"Xiao Ji, the fire must not be too high, otherwise the wine will be dried out and the purity will not be improved." Gu Jinli explained, splicing the custom-made ceramic distillation tubes section by section, and then sealing the joints with rice mud. live. By the time she and Erqing had spliced the ceramic still tubes together, the aroma of wine was already filling the room.
After Gu Jinli smelled the aroma of wine, he said to Xiao Ji: "Just keep the heat at this level, don't make it too hot, otherwise it will be over."
"Hey, this slave knows." Xiao Ji responded, staring at the fire in the stove, fearing that it would get too hot.
"Take it, soak it in water and put it on." Gu Jinli gave several cotton masks to Erqing, Xiaoji and Ye Jingzi and told them how to use them.
Then he explained to them: "We are going to stay here all day, and we will absorb a lot of alcohol. If we don't cover our mouth and nose, we will get drunk."
