The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms
Chapter 385 Sharing the Work
"Don't worry, it will be almost ready next month."
"The fruit you mentioned is called 'grape'."
Zhou Mingshu reminded again.
She had said it many times, but they still couldn't remember it.
"Okay, I'll remember this time."
The grapes were hidden under the leaves, green ones next to each other. Last time she picked one from the vegetable garden and tasted it, the taste was simply amazing!
It's bitter and astringent, so unpalatable!
Qi Rui looked at the girls in front of him chatting with each other, but he was quite interested in this "grape".
"Mingshu, the 'grapes' you are talking about are from the foreign lands in the west? I have heard people say that this kind of fruit tastes pretty good."
"That's right, sir. These grapes came from outside. I heard from grandma before that the pomegranates here also came from there."
What Zhou Mingshu said was not a lie.
The pomegranates came from foreign countries, and so did the grapes, but the grape vines she had were exchanged from the system, and they were of a good variety.
"There is a poem in the book that says, 'Grapes make fine wine in a luminous cup.' These grapes can also be made into fine wine, but I don't know how to make this wine."
The scenes in the poem were beautiful and wonderful, and Qi Rui also yearned for it.
"Sir, it doesn't matter if you don't know. We can learn from books. Aren't many of the experiences of our predecessors recorded in books?"
Qi Rui smiled, Mingshu was right.
However, he had studied hard for nearly twenty years, and most of the books he read on weekdays were military books and ancient books, and then some storybooks. He seldom read books that were closer to real life.
Therefore little is known about these.
"That's right, you can check it in the book then."
After a few people finished eating the watermelon, they packed up their things and prepared to go to the restaurant.
After Zhou Mingshu brought the donkey cart over, Qi Rui put a few fruit baskets on it.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Zhou Mingqin and Zhou Mingqi jumped out of the car first, and Zhou Mingshu brought Qi Rui and the fruits over.
When they arrived at the gate of the military defense camp, there was no need for Zhou Mingshu's help at all.
Qi Rui gave a look and the guard standing at the door came over to carry the fruit.
"Sir, I won't go in. I'll go to the restaurant first."
"Okay, go back. I'll come find you when I have time."
The two smiled at each other, and Zhou Mingshu turned a corner and left.
Several guards brought fruits into the big tent. Qi Rui followed closely and picked a few plump purple-red plums and threw one to each of the guards.
"Rufeng, take these fruits down and share them with the brothers. Leave some for Qi Xu and me, and also take care of the manager at the mine."
Qi Rui came back from Lianglin Village after having a full meal.
There were so many colorful fruits in front of him that he couldn't eat any of them.
Rufeng's mouth was watering when he saw so many fruits, but he was not in a hurry to eat them. He first picked out some good ones and put them aside.
The amount of fruit distributed varied according to the rank of each official.
But there is one unique copy that is different from the others, and it is the one he reserved specifically for the Fourth Young Master.
After Qi Rui had eaten and drunk his fill, he sat on a chair with his legs crossed, watching Rufeng busying around below.
"Rufeng, there are many fruits in Mingshu's orchard. Come pick fruits with me next time."
Ru Feng raised his head upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, Master."
Taking him to pick fruits means he can eat a lot of fruits.
He had visited the flower garden of the young lady of the Zhou family. There were all kinds of flowers and trees, and there must be a lot of edible things.
He will have something to eat then!
Seeing Rufeng's happy look, Qi Rui couldn't help laughing.
Picking fruits is a happy thing, but there are too many fruits in Mingshu's house.
He couldn't finish the work by himself, so he called Rufeng over, mainly because he wanted to share more work with Zhou Mingshu.
Men are stronger, so whether they are carrying water or picking fruits, the weight is nothing to them.
Rufeng: Master, thank you...

After lunch, Mrs. Zhou didn't let everyone leave.
Mainly, there is one thing to announce.
"Grandma, what's so grand?"
Zhou Mingqi was feeling extremely hot and really wanted to slip away from the dinner table, but his grandmother held him down so tightly that he didn't know what was going on.
Only Liu next to her smiled with her lips pursed.
The atmosphere at the entire dinner table seemed a little weird, but it wasn't oppressive at all. Instead, it felt full of surprises.
After everyone put down their chopsticks, Old Mrs. Zhou cleared her throat and began to talk about this matter.
"July is almost over, and in a few days it will be Erya's fifteenth birthday. This is her coming-of-age ceremony, and we have to make it a grand one. We didn't do a good job with Daya's coming-of-age ceremony before, and we can't let these two girls suffer anymore in the future."
Old Mrs. Zhou touched Zhou Mingqi's hand and told him about this matter.
Zhou Mingqi's eyes lit up after hearing this, it turned out to be for her fifteenth birthday celebration.
"Wow, grandma, you are so nice."
Zhou Mingqi excitedly hugged Old Mrs. Zhou, rubbing and nuzzling herself in her arms.
When the family members saw her like this, they all burst into laughter, and Old Mrs. Zhou also smiled lovingly.
"Then we will invite some of our good relatives and neighbors to dinner, and ask the village chief's grandmother to come and comb your hair and pin it."
Zhou Mingqi nodded without any hesitation.
"That's great! I don't know how much the sisters in the village will envy me, hehehe~"
Her eldest sister’s wedding banquet was so grand. With such a great example, Zhou Mingqi never thought about how grand her own coming-of-age banquet would be. As long as all the ceremonies were in place, it would be fine.
But since grandma said this, it meant that her coming-of-age party would not be bad at all.
"Your birthday is not far away. When you are free, ask your elder sister to explain the process to you. You should have a clear idea of it."
"Grandma, I understand. I will definitely study hard. There will be so many people coming to watch the ceremony, and I can't let myself down."
She is very vain and won't lose face in public.
Zhou Mingshu sat aside and smiled, watching his second sister's every move and smile.
But grandma didn't let her go, "San Ya, you're going to have a coming-of-age party this year too, so you should learn from your second sister when she's learning."
"Haha, grandma, I get it. I will study hard beside you."
……
Ever since grandma announced that Zhou Mingqi's coming-of-age banquet would be a grand one, Zhou Mingqi seemed like a different person.
He speaks softly and does things less rashly than before.
"Second sister, is it really that serious? Please, just be yourself!"
Seeing her like this, Zhou Mingshu felt more painful than cutting himself.
"San Ya, have I become more ladylike? Have I become more ladylike? You silly girl, are you in love with me?"
Zhou Mingqi raised her index finger and flicked her handkerchief, which hit Zhou Mingshu's shoulder directly, and a gust of fragrant breeze blew towards his face.
Zhou Mingshu pursed his lips in disgust, choking with speechlessness.
