Song Wanyue went to find Song Ming’s wife.

All households have already eaten and most of them are outside to enjoy the cool air.

Song Ming's wife took advantage of the ostentation and dragged her tired body to start cooking.

Song Gua howled in the room, saying that she was about to starve to death. She was really blind at the beginning and spent so much money to buy such an unfilial daughter-in-law back.

Song Ming also lay in the house and cursed her, calling her a mourning star, and scolding her for not buying him back at the beginning. Not only did he give birth to two money-losing goods, but he also caused him to lose dozens of taels of silver.

Song Ming’s wife had long been numb.

She took the water to add water to the pot, and the little Erya went to bring the firewood over and light the fire.

Song Wanyue picked up a small stone at her feet and threw it over, which happened to land at Song Ming's wife's feet.

She looked over in surprise, and Song Wanyue waved to her. Song Ming's wife quickly wiped her hand on the apron, limped out of the yard, and pulled her away from the doorstep.

Her first thought was that Da Ya was in trouble and asked anxiously, "Is Da Ya disobedient at Young Master Gu's house?"

She knew that it was Song Wanyue who asked Young Master Gu to come that day, and she saved Da Ya and came out of this fire pit.

She was always grateful, but she didn't dare to thank her, for fear that her mother-in-law and the man would find out, so she ran over there to make a big fuss and cause them trouble.

"It has nothing to do with Da Ya. You need some fresh mint leaves at home. You can pick some for us tomorrow morning, so you won't let you help you in vain. You will be given a penny per catty."

“How much is needed?”

"How much can I pick."

"I understand. I'll go pick it tomorrow morning, and I'll send it there after I finish picking it."

"Stupid, where have you died?"

Song Ming came out of the house and didn't see her in the yard, so he cursed.

Song Ming's wife turned around and went back quickly.

Song Ming cursed again.

...

The next day, when there were still more than a dozen servings of cold noodles, Song Shu urged Song Wanyue and Song Sanxiao to buy wine.

Song Sanxiao knew everything about the places selling wine in the county town.

He took Song Wanyue directly to the largest restaurant, "Shopkeeper, come a pound of the best spirits."

He often comes to buy wine, and the shopkeeper recognizes him, "Why, are you rich today?"

It’s no wonder that the shopkeeper was joking about him like this. Song Sanxiao always came with his friends. After coming, he smelled the good wine jar in the wine shop for a long time, then he searched and paid for the cheap wine to drink.

"Don't you look down on people? Our family now sells cold skin and can earn a lot of money a day. What's wrong with buying a kilo of good wine?"

The cold peel was sold in this county for a few days, and the shopkeeper specially asked the client to buy one and try it. Not to mention, it was so comfortable to eat a cold peel in the summer. It was just not cheap. A cold peel was more expensive than a pound of inferior white wine.

"Oh, it turns out that the cold piment belongs to your home. You should buy good wine and drink it. Please wait. I will get you there. This restaurant has good wine, fifteen taels per pound."

“How many…?”

The shopkeeper was still smiling, "Fifteen taels per pound."

“This is too expensive.”

"My good wine is brewed in total for five jars a year, each jar is thirty kilograms. This price is really not expensive. Otherwise, you can give me less and half a kilogram?"

"Come on two jin and put it in a small wine jar."

The shopkeeper then noticed Song Wanyue and saw that she was just an eight or nine-year-old girl, standing still.

"I didn't hear my niece, go quickly!"

The shopkeeper was surprised that a little girl could actually be the master of Song Sanxiao. She immediately turned around and went to the backyard, and came back with a small jar of wine.

Song Wanyue took out the silver to pay the bill, and the shopkeeper was even more surprised. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times. It was not until Song San carefully hugged the wine jar and Song Wanyue out of the restaurant that he withdrew his gaze.

Such a small jar was only thirty taels of silver. Song Sanxiao held it tightly and didn't dare to take too much, for fear that he would accidentally drop the jar of wine to the ground.

"After going back, Uncle San knew what to say, right?"

Song Sanxiao didn't understand for a moment, "Ah?"

Song Wanyue pointed at the wine jar with her chin.

Song Sanxiao understood that he was asking him to help lie!

He couldn't help swallowing a few saliva, "Say, how much do you say?"

"Six taels."

Song San's forehead was sweating.

"If Uncle San doesn't help me hide it, I will say that I originally wanted to buy three taels of silver per pound, but you instigated me to buy such a good one."

Song Sanxiao was about to cry, "Yue'er, you can't always cheat your third uncle like this. Your third uncle hasn't married yet. If you cheated to death, how wronged it would be."

Song Wanyue used what he said before to block back, "Didn't the third uncle say it's better to drink wine than to marry a wife? Don't worry, before grandma beats you to death, I will let you drink a few sips of good wine."

Song Sanxiao looked at her sadly, "Yue'er, you have changed, you won't love Uncle San anymore."

"As long as Uncle San doesn't tell his family, I will naturally love Uncle San. After the mint oil is extracted and I will make money, I will buy good wine for Uncle San to drink."

"I just want this fifteen taels per pound of wine."

"One word is determined."

...

After returning home, the two of them said that they had spent six taels of silver, but the family didn't say anything.

Song Wanyue spread the mint leaves washed and dried by Xu in the jar one by one, then poured in the spirits, pressed them with the things, covered the lid, and placed them in the sun.

It is best to use glass bottles to make peppermint oil, but this era has not been used, so you can only use jars.

"That's fine?"

No one of the family went to the field and stayed at home to watch. Seeing this simple, I couldn't believe it.

"alright."

My family members look at me, I look at you, this is too ridiculous. If mint oil can be extracted so easily, I don’t know how many people will make a fortune in the world.

"Yue'er, I said..."

Song Sanxiao was about to say something, but Song Shu grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him aside, "It's getting late, it's time to go to the ground."

The others followed suit and carried hoes to the ground. Xu and Song Lin also turned around and returned to the house without saying a word.

"I said you are really, why don't you let me say that Yue'er is just making a fool of herself."

When Song Sanxiao thought that the thirty taels of silver had been wasted so vain, he was bleeding in his heart.

If he had those good wines to drink, it would be worth it even if he was drunk to death.

"Isn't it just a few taels of silver? Maybe this is how peppermint oil is extracted?"

Song Shu was very confident and he thought he was just making a fool of himself, but Yue'er had already done this, and it would be useless to say anything else.

"That's..."

Song Sanxiao almost let out a word, "Thirty taels" were all over the mouth, and then hurriedly swallowed it, "Several taels of silver wine."

"Jiujiujiu, you will know that wine! Yue'er is so strict that she didn't let you drink secretly. You feel uncomfortable, right?"

...

As he spoke, Gu Yi stretched out his legs from the carriage and kicked Xiao Si. Xiao Si jumped out of the carriage and quickly called Song Wanyue over.

When Song Wanyue got on the carriage, Gu Yi diligently pushed the plate of the lotus seeds in front of her, "Little girl, I just heard your family say wine. There are so many in my house. I will have someone to send you a carriage."
