Du Xiaoli looked at Li Xueqing and felt that this man was a little like Wang Xifeng. He was smart and capable. In the society where men were in power, he supported a woman''s sky. She smiled and asked along with Li Xueqing, "don''t you know what Mrs. Li is looking for me?"

    Li Xueqing looked at Du Xiaoli and said with a smile, "what wine did you give my sister a few days ago? You said you made it?"

    Hearing what Li Xueqing said, Du Xiaoli probably guessed the reason why she came today. She smiled and said, "yes."

    "What is that grape?" Li Xueqing asked.

    "That''s a fruit I found in the mountains," Du Xiaoli replied. "Unfortunately, it''s past the grape ripening season, otherwise I can invite Mrs. Li and sister Hong to try it."

    "Really? That''s really unfortunate," said Mrs. Li. "I wonder if you have any wine here?"

    "There''s still a little left. It happens that there''s nothing to entertain madam. Why don''t I invite you to taste it." Du Xiaoli said. "You wait."

    With that, Du Xiaoli went into the room and took out a jar of wine. The jar had already drunk some, and the seal on it was not as tight as before. She put the wine jar on the ground, then took two bowls, washed them and poured one bowl for each of them.

    "Madam, try it." Du Xiaoli brought a bowl to Li Xueqing, and then another bowl to sister Hong.

    In the past, Li Xueqing would never drink in a bowl, but now she doesn''t care about this. She smells the bowl, takes a sip, closes her eyes and feels the wine sliding from the tip of her tongue to her throat. After a while, she opened her eyes and asked, "do you say this grape ripening season has passed?"

    "Yes, every May and June is the season for grapes to mature." Du Xiaoli poured himself half a bowl and sat down to drink with them.

    It was the first time that sister Hong drank this wine. After drinking it, she was surprised and said, "this wine tastes good and special! It''s like wine and fruit juice. It''s delicious."

    Li Xueqing took a look at sister Hong, saw the love in her eyes, smiled and said to Du Xiaoli, "in fact, I came today because I drank this wine last time in my sister''s place. I want to ask you if you can sell me the recipe for making wine."

    "Sell you the prescription for brewing?" Du Xiaoli looked at Li Xueqing in surprise, but said in her heart that she really came to buy the prescription.

    "Yes. If you are willing to sell me this prescription, I am willing to pay one hundred liang of silver," said Li Xueqing.

    "One hundred Liang!" the red elder sister breathed out in surprise, and then hurriedly covered her mouth.

    "Madam wants to pay one hundred Liang silver to buy my prescription for wine?" Du Xiaoli repeated.

    "Yes. One hundred liang of silver is enough for you to rebuild a simple courtyard." Li Xueqing said confidently.

    She has almost understood the situation of Du Xiaoli''s family. When she looked at the house, she knew that she was short of silver.

    Du Xiaoli looked down and said, "I''m sorry, madam, I can''t sell you this prescription."

    "You''re too little?" Li Xueqing looked at Du Xiaoli''s unwillingness and said, "if it''s the reason for this price, we can discuss it well."

    Du Xiaoli still shook his head and said, "my mother said that this prescription can''t be sold to others."

    "Your mother?" Li Xueqing glanced at sister Hong. Didn''t she say that Du Xiaoli had only one brother?

    "Yes," said Du Xiaoli, "my mother told my brother and me on her deathbed that this prescription is a secret handed down from my grandfather. It''s the foundation of our future career. Let me use this prescription to make wine when my brother and I grow up. I''m sorry, madam. This is my mother''s last wish. Xiaoli dare not break it, so I can''t sell you the prescription."

    "Your mother''s last wish..." Li Xueqing looked at Du Xiaoli and tried to find a trace of lying on her face. But Du Xiaoli''s sad face made her unable to find any flaws. Recently, she had to give up and said, "if it''s your mother''s last wish, you really can''t break it."

    "Thank you, madam." Du Xiaoli said. Filial piety is the first in today''s society. She carried out her dead mother. Li Xueqing didn''t dare to come even if she wanted to.

    After drinking the wine in the bowl, Li Xueqing stood up when Du Xiaoli poured her wine, turned around in the yard, saw the temporary stove beside the yard and the medicinal materials dried in the dustpan, and asked, "did you dig these?"

    "Yes." Du Xiaoli put down the wine jar, came to Li Xueqing and said, "Grandpa Niu taught me these. He told me what herbs can be dug. After I dried them, I sold them to him to subsidize my family."

    "In this way, your life is very difficult," Li Xueqing said.

    "Hehe, it''s OK," said Du Xiaoli. "I made a lot of money selling oranges a while ago. Brother Luo Qi and I can''t spend much money at home."

    Li Xueqing returned to the stool and said, "do you want to make money?"

    "Yes!" said Du Xiaoli, "but I still can''t sell that prescription."

    "Is there no other way? To tell you the truth, I am very interested in your prescription." Li Xueqing knocked on the table with one hand and said.

    "I have an idea," Du Xiaoli thought and said.

    "Oh? Tell me." Li Xueqing looked at Du Xiaoli. "My mother said before she died that if we didn''t have the capital, we would find someone to partner," Du Xiaoli said. "Partnership?" Li Xueqing heard the word for the first time. "It''s just doing it with others. For example, we give technology, others give money, and the money we earn is shared according to the agreed ratio." Du Xiaoli explained. Li Xueqing didn''t speak, but seemed to be thinking. At this time, the person who loaded the oranges below said that all the oranges had been loaded. "I''ll go back and think about it again. If I think it''s feasible, I''ll come back to you." Li Xueqing got up and said. "Madam, please wait a minute." Du Xiaoli went to the room and took out a small jar of wine and said, "madam, there''s nothing to entertain you. I''ll give this wine to madam." Li Xueqing really liked the wine when she saw the jar in Du Xiaoli''s hand. "Thank you, Xiaoli." Li Xueqing took over the wine jar and said with a smile, "but I can''t take your wine for nothing, can I? It''s just what I bought." then she stuffed a few liang of silver into Du Xiaoli. Du Xiaoli delayed for a while and stopped talking about the partnership. If she could work with them, she would save a lot of things and take advantage of their market, but she didn''t have to. If she was impatient, it would be bad for her negotiation. At the foot of the mountain, those people said the weight of the oranges they bought this time. Sister Hong gave Du Xiaoli the silver and followed Li Xueqing to the carriage in front.
