The Beauty in the Peasant Family - C293
Actually, Qin Wuya had wanted to call the labourers at the Villa to go directly to the northern pastry shop. After all, the Sunset Cloud Villa had a specialized transport team, there was no need for that. She also didn’t need to ask Manager Wu to come over.
However, Manager Wu said that he wanted to personally come to the Villa to see the size of the vineyard, and he wanted to take the jam back down at the same time.
Qin Wuya felt that this wasn’t too bad, so she instructed Qiu Rong to send all the cooked jam to the ice cellar to seal. The key to the ice cellar was in Fu Xi’s hands right now, and could be considered as Fu Xi’s direct jurisdiction.
Ever since Fu Xi had married Liu Da, it had become difficult for Qin Wuya to keep him by her side. , on the other hand, was already an capable person. Following the principle of being a fertile land that didn’t flow to outsiders, Qin Wuya gave Fu Xi the title of the Third Manager of the Personnel Department. She also gave him a part-time job in charge of registering the ice storage.
After the first inquiry in June, the Manager Wu went to the Villa to look for the cultivation project for the dry grape Garden. Qin Wuya then had her people pack ‘Yi Xia’ from the Four Villa to let the Manager Wu stay in.
In front of the small building in Yi Xia, there was a lake. The lake water contained the lotus flower variety ‘Gu Lian’, which was commonly seen in the north.
It was the lotus seed from the end of March of the new year. It had sprouted early in April, and by now, there were already a few budding stalks in the lake.
Manager Wu liked it immediately after he took up residence. He only said that he would stay in Yi Xia’s villa for seven or eight days, waiting for the lotus flowers in the lake in front of the house to bloom before he left.
Qin Wuya was naturally willing to stay at Manager Wu, so she asked Manager Wu to bring her children and wives up the mountain to take shelter for the summer.
When the Manager Wu heard this idea, he felt that it was a good idea. That night, he did not stay in Yi Xia’s villa, but took the chance and kissed her when the sky was still dark. He and a few servants personally brought over a dozen jars of purple fruit sauce to the northern part of the plant.
It wasn’t until the afternoon of the second day that he came up the mountain with his wife and daughter. As for the eldest son of the Manager Wu, he did not call her over because it was not convenient for him to ask for a vacation from the Academy.
Manager Wu’s wife, Lian Shi was younger than Manager Wu by a few years. He had a delicate and pretty face, a slim figure, and maintained himself extremely well.
As for the little girl who followed beside her, she was only about three or four years older than Wei Yan. She was the youngest daughter of the Lian Clan and Manager Wu. The name of the room was Wu Xiaohe, and the name of the room was Wu Xiaohe.
Manager Wu had visited the villa only a few times out of the three of them. Furthermore, they had seen the semi-modern decorations of the various small buildings in the manor the day before.
However, this was the first time that Lian Shi couldn’t help but be amazed, especially when he saw the “Take You to the Heavens” brand of earthy gold toilet bowl. He guessed for a long time and didn’t know what it was.
In the end, it was Manager Wu who could not hold back and proudly introduced this toilet bowl to her. And Manager Wu felt very proud of this.
It was no wonder the Manager Wu felt that he had face. Actually, when the Manager Wu had invested a lot of silver into the Qin Chamber of Commerce, it was purely for the mountain vineyard’s annual production. No one had thought that the entire Villa would have him.
However, Qin Wuya had directly converted Manager Wu’s money into a part of the merchant guild, making him the main shareholder of the Qin Chamber of Commerce. She had 15% of the shares of the Qin Chamber of Commerce.
This was equivalent to the fact that the Manager Wu indirectly owned nearly one sixth of the entire Sunset Cloud Villa’s businesses, and these businesses naturally included every single plant in the entire Four Great Clans, Three Gardens, and One Lake. They also included the ‘Yi Xia’ small house that the Manager Wu’s family was currently living in and the ‘Bay Lotus Pool’ in front of it.
Cloud Prefecture had entered a sweltering phase of heat since June, the sky was filled with the viciousness of one day after another. Qin Wuya had already started planning to spend the summer on the Sunset Clouds Mountain last year. This year’s Villa had finally settled in with great difficulty, how could Qin Wuya possibly let it go?
Three days after Manager Wu took his wife and daughter to live in Yi Xia’s pavilion, Qin Wuya then packed up his luggage and brought his son Wei Yan, the wet nurse and Tsai Zi to live in the Morning Green Garden.
However, because there were too many matters in the Chao Chung Hall and she was unable to go up the mountain, the yam chose to pack her clothes and stayed in the anterior chamber, in order to quickly settle the matters at hand so that she could reunite with her wife and children.
Furthermore, there were ice cellars, vineyard s, breeding grounds and fish ponds on the mountain. It could be considered a good place for the original ecology to eat, drink, and play. Naturally, it was much more interesting than being locked in the town.
At least, since the day Zhang Weiyan had arrived in the mountain, he had not only gotten to know this beautiful big sister, but also had people take him, the Crown Prince, to visit and play around every day.
For example, today, the two little fellows would go to the vineyard to steal the dry grape s’ food, and tomorrow they would meet to go to the lotus pond to fish for the lotus leaves to play with.
Two days later, there were people who brought the two to catch fish in the fish pond. In the end, even the Madam Lin unknowingly came and joined in the fun. She personally brought the two children to patrol the various chicken, duck, and sheep breeding grounds, treating the breeding grounds as if it was a zoo.
Although Qin Wuya felt helpless for his son’s dirty little mud ball every day when she returned, she felt that this was how a child should be lively, so she let him be.
Other than that, when Qin Wuya saw how Zhang Weiyan liked to play with the Manager Wu, he clearly lacked a playmate, so she asked the Madam Lin to go to the town and bring Qin Dashan and his son over to the mountain.
With regards to Qin Wuya’s suggestion, Madam Lin naturally agreed. She had missed her grandson for a long time, and would frequently go down the mountain to take a look.
And Qin Dashan and the Zhang couple were not displeased. The two of them could be considered a pair worker now, they were already extremely busy, and would normally not be able to take care of the children, so it would be better to have the Madam Lin bring the children up the mountain.
Since there were still and Qin Wuya on the mountain, no matter what, they would not let Xiao Bao have a bad time.
However, because of this, Qin Wuya had another thought, and started to think about whether she should refund the temporary small courtyard she rented in the north part of the town, and transfer all the women, including the Madam Li and Zhang family, to the Sunset Clouds Mountain to manage it.
Although the rent that he had to pay every year to rent the Northern Courtyard was not a lot of money to Qin Wuya, but no matter how small the amount of money was, it was still his own money.
However, Qin Wuya had only put this matter on the table temporarily, and did not immediately make a decision.
After all, the majority of the women in the Northern Courtyard were part-time jobs. These people would go home at noon every day to wash clothes, cook for themselves, and take care of their children, unlike the workers in the Sunset Clouds Mountain who all signed an annual employment agreement with each other and lived on the mountain.
If Qin Wuya rashly moved, these women would have lost a large amount of their monthly income all at once, without any preparation.
This summer, Qin Wuya’s days were exceptionally leisurely, as the major matters could almost be dealt with by the Ye Erniang. But now, the only thing Qin Wuya could do every day was choose a place with a good enough scenery, a place where she could shade the sun, and take a breather. She would get people to place on recliners, fruit platters, pastries, and ice cream.
The so-called ice cream was obviously different from the modern Hagen Das DQ, most of them were handmade by Qin Wuya. As for the taste, it was probably just an ordinary ice cream.
The method was simple. He just needed to place the sugar and egg yolks together and beat them with a homemade eggbeater. Then, he would beat them until they were a milky white color. Then, he would add the boiled goat’s milk.
He had to use a spoon to slowly scoop the milk and slowly pour it into the milky white egg juice that he had already made, bit by bit. Moreover, he had to continuously stir the white egg juice as he poured, in case the milk got too hot and poured in to cook the egg.
Actually, the best way to make ice cream was still using milk, since the goat’s milk smelled a little worse, which would affect the fragrance. However, although there were a lot of cows in the farm, but there were no cows in the farm, so Qin Wuya had no choice but to use sheep’s milk again.
After the boiled goat’s milk was completely mixed into the egg juice, he stirred it carefully and then poured it back into the pot. Then, he boiled it in a gentle flame.
When it was boiled to the boiling point, the milk mixed with egg yolk sucrose could be poured into a large porcelain bowl that was prepared beforehand to cool. After it was completely cooled down, after stirring it for a while with bamboo slices, the various dried fruits cut from the peeled dry grape would be placed in the ice cellar.
Because he didn’t have the ice cream and ice cream machine, Qin Wuya’s local ice cream would definitely be discounted. However, it was better than nothing. Some things were better than nothing.
Besides, although the taste of the ice cream wasn’t exquisite enough, at least his ingredients were excellent. In terms of health, they were definitely better than the ice cream of the modern era that had been added to it by god knows what.
It had to be said that Qin Wuya had thought about this very much.
only barely managed to satisfy his craving for the self-made ice cream, but in the eyes of the three little ghost heads, Zhang Weiyan, Wu Xiaohe and Qin Xiao Bao, it was the best delicacy in the world.
Every time Qin Wuya took a moment to make ice cream, the three little ghost heads would consciously stop wandering around the Villa, busily gathering at the Kitchen s in the direction of the Green Garden. Their two pairs of big and round eyes stared blankly at Qin Wuya as they waited for him to boil the goat’s milk in the pot.
Or perhaps they could just follow behind Qin Wuya and walk their short legs all the way to the entrance of the ice cellar. If it wasn’t for the key to the ice cellar and the special handle at the entrance, these three brats might even want to sleep in the ice cellar.
But Qin Wuya more or less understood the actions of these three brats, maybe children were born with no resistance to such cold and sweet things.
Just like how Qin Wuya had been when she was young, he did not have much resistance towards things like big ice cream bars and ice bars. She bought them secretly when she had money, did not have the money to buy them sneakily, and did not care whether they were junk food or not.
Of course, being between the three of them was really too young, and their stomachs were more crispy. Qin Wuya would only allow them to choose between two bamboo stick s once each, and slowly lick them to eat.
