The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Mr. Wang was so angry that he almost fell. He turned around and glared at his eldest son, then stopped running and, panting, pointed at his two sons, saying, "Neither of you makes me any peace of mind."

Wang Jin retorted, "Dad, I haven't done anything to upset you. Only someone like my brother would give away the family's money."

No one told Wang Qi about this. From the moment he placed the order until the very end, Wang Qi thought he had gotten a great deal. But now that his older brother had calculated the cost, he instantly felt like he had been cheated out of his money, and his heart was bleeding.

"I didn't lose money, because the price of each jar was reduced. In the end, the shop owner said I was a straightforward person and gave me two extra jars for free."

Wang Jin raised an eyebrow. "Did you really receive two extra jars?"

"Of course, would I lie about this? The things are right there in the backyard." Wang Qilue was proud and extremely grateful to Du Mingxian. Even though she knew he had miscalculated, she hadn't taken advantage of him. She was a good person.

Wang Jin knew his younger brother was unreliable, but he disdained lying and naturally believed him. "It seems the other party is very sincere in cooperating with our family."

"Of course! Their family is really nice. The boss even invited me to his home. Their village has mountains, and there's wild game in the mountains. When I came back this time, they even gave me some, which I've already given to the kitchen."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jin's impression of the Ling family improved even more. "That's good. If this sauce sells well, we can discuss a long-term cooperation with them."

"Sure, let's give it a try first. If we really need to discuss long-term cooperation, I'll go."

Before Wang Jin could speak, his father said, "If you were sent there, you'd probably squander the whole family fortune. Luckily, no one tried to take advantage of you."

Knowing he was in the wrong, Wang Qi remained silent, already calculating in his mind: if his father and elder brother wouldn't let him go, couldn't he sneak off on his own? There was always a way; he absolutely had to go to the mountains.

After the Wang family delivered the goods, the Ling family had some free time. Every day, Zhou would make a few jars of sauce and some chili sauce, and then wander around the village gossiping.

Du Mingxian's focus is still on making wine, but recently, when she has some free time, she also practices calligraphy.

She was determined to change Ling Silang's fate of dying young in this life. With Ling Silang's abilities and You Yuan's blessing, she believed that becoming an official in the court would not be a problem.

She needs to start improving herself now, as social interactions among the ladies will also be very important in the future.

Ling Silang is very busy every day, always in You Yuan's room. He is like a sponge, greedily absorbing all kinds of knowledge, and recently his knowledge has reached a high point.

Furthermore, You Yuan had traveled extensively and had a wide range of knowledge, and they had deep conversations. Now he was an official in the court, which was something that Ling Silang could not access.

Fearing that Ling Silang's body couldn't handle it, Du Mingxian prepared separate meals for him every day, and she also went to the trouble of preparing separate meals for You Yuan as well.

Ling Silang's food contained a lot of spiritual water, while You Yuan's... contained not a single drop of spiritual water, only ordinary water.

Call her selfish or say she's settling a personal score, but ultimately she wanted You Yuan to recover more slowly so that Ling Silang would have more time.

She noticed that Ling Silang had been turning off the lights later and later lately.

As his sleep time decreased, his eyes became brighter, but his complexion grew paler, which worried her greatly, fearing that he would fall ill again.

Ling's father was in charge of all the farm work. Sometimes Ling's mother wanted to go, but he would stop her. After finishing their chores at home, Ling's son and the others would help Ling's father. Du Mingxian suggested that they find someone else, but Ling's father refused, so she had to give up in the end.

As the weather gradually turns cooler, people need to add layers in the mornings and evenings. Some animals in the mountains also need to prepare for winter. Du Mingxian, on the other hand, was thinking that the wine would be ready at this time, just in time to ward off the cold.

With good luck and the blessing of spiritual water, the wine sold outside is incomparable to the wine brewed by Du Mingxian.

Ling's father quite liked wine. Knowing that Du Mingxian said the wine could be opened today, he waited early. As the wine slowly flowed out, the rich aroma was intoxicating.

"I haven't even tasted it yet, but just from the smell, it's sure to be amazing." Mr. Ling was overjoyed.

Ling's mother chimed in, "There's no alcohol you don't like."

Ling's father waved his hand, "This is different. The wine that Mingxian brewed is indeed very good."

Quite a bit of wine spilled out. Du Mingxian scooped a small spoonful for Ling's father and put it into the bowl he was holding. Ling's father couldn't wait to put it in his mouth and take a small sip. The taste was quite good.

"Excellent, truly excellent. I have never tasted such a pure and fragrant wine."

Ling's mother chuckled to herself, "Our family used to be so poor that we never had the money to buy good wine. I believe Mingxian's wine is very good, but don't exaggerate."

Ling's father did not argue with Ling's mother, but only said to Du Mingxian, "This wine is really good."

Du Mingxian nodded slightly. She had just tried it and it worked well. "It's ready for mass production."

"Large quantities?"

"Yes, let's build a workshop at home, that way it will be easier to brew wine."

Mr. and Mrs. Ling never imagined that the Ling family could develop to this extent during their lifetimes; they were both stunned.

Du Mingxian thought they disagreed, "Father, Mother, is it that we can't build this workshop?"

"Yes, yes, you can build it. Think about what you're thinking. Dad will go and call your older brother and the others over so we can discuss it together."

"it is good."

Soon the entire Ling family arrived. Ling's father placed the wine he had prepared earlier on the table and said, "Come over here and each of you take a little to taste. See how our homemade wine is."

The group brought it over, and after the Ling family's daughters-in-law all took a small sip, they felt that the wine was really strong, much stronger than they had drunk before.

Zhou smacked her lips, "This liquor is really strong, much stronger than what you buy outside."

“Yes, that’s right,” Ling’s father was the first to respond.

The Ling family's sons had a much stronger reaction. As men, they could tell whether the wine was good or bad just by tasting it, and it really did taste good.

Du Mingxian knew that the good quality of the wine was partly due to the few drops of spiritual water she added; the wine, blessed with the spiritual water, had an aroma that filled the entire village.

People passing by the Ling family's door were sniffing and trying to inhale, just wanting to smell what it was.

Uncle Ling and Third Uncle Ling had just returned from the fields when they smelled the aroma of wine wafting from Ling Silang's house. The two of them simply went straight into the courtyard, only to find that all of Ling's father's sons had gathered there.

Uncle Ling immediately became anxious, "Is something wrong? Why are you all gathered here?"

"Big brother, it's nothing, we just have some good stuff and wanted to call a few kids over to try it. Since you and third brother are here, come in and have a taste too." Father Ling excitedly pulled the two into the main room.

After drinking the wine, Uncle Ling and Third Uncle Ling's eyes widened, and they both praised the wine, saying they had never tasted such delicious wine before.

"Second brother, where did you get this? It tastes so good, I want to buy some too."
