Chapter 176: Red Glutinous
"Feng'er, no one is coming at this time, hurry up and take two mouthfuls to fill your stomach. ”
"I've hurt you today. ”
"Yo yo, you can come over and have a bite to eat. ”
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Wan Qiuqing carried a gray deep-bottomed casserole into the back of the mourning shed, and she boiled a pot of porridge, wanting Qi Changfeng and Qi Yoyo, who had been tired all day and didn't bother to eat a bite, to eat something.
The location of the city lord's mansion is there, and it is difficult to think about the relationship with less, and there are many people who have received the favor of the city lord's mansion, and they also come to mourn and condolence with a grateful heart, so that from eight o'clock in the morning, the guests who came to mourn have not stopped, and the Qi family has no home in Yancheng, and the guests have to rely on Qi Changfeng alone.
Qi Changfeng's legs have hardly stopped today, but the main thing is mental pain, which makes his whole person show a heavy and tired state.
No, Wan Qiuqing took advantage of the absence of guests, and hurriedly brought over the porridge that had been boiled and kept warm on the stove.
"Mother, I don't have an appetite, you and my little sister can eat. Qi Changkong sat on the ground and said in a tired voice.
Qi Yoyo smelled the aroma of porridge and couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly.
In fact, she was quite tired this day, but unlike Qi Changfeng's mental and physical torture, she pretended to be sad and tired. Knowing that the second brother Qi Changkong was safe and sound, he was extremely happy, but he had to pretend to be in pain, and he had to cry loudly for a while from time to time, so that she felt like a year.
Qi Yoyo was extremely sympathetic to Qi Changfeng who was kept in the dark, looking at his increasingly haggard and tired demeanor, he almost couldn't help telling him the truth several times. In fact, she didn't understand very much, why her father and mother had to hide it from her eldest brother, the eldest brother was obviously so mature and stable, even if he knew that he would act well, he would definitely not be recognized.
However, due to her mother's advice and warnings, Qi Yoyo swallowed back every time the words came to her mouth. Looking at Qi Changfeng's tired demeanor, he felt that this scene was really done, and the enemy would never see the flaws.
"Big brother, you should eat as much as you want, otherwise your mother will still have to worry about you. Qi Yoyo hurriedly persuaded him, his voice was crying, and he wanted to cry. She hadn't eaten for a day, and she had a fight in the morning, and she was really hungry. What's worse is that I don't know what kind of porridge my mother boiled, and the fragrance wafting out hooked all the greedy worms in her stomach.
grunt
Although Qi Yoyo tried his best to control it, his stomach was not angry at all, and he still screamed out inappropriately.
Qi Changfeng heard the scream in Qi Yoyo's stomach, his expression couldn't help but be stunned, looking at Wan Qiuqing's concerned expression and Qi Yoyo's tired demeanor, he couldn't help but feel guilty, knowing that if he didn't eat it, then his mother and little sister would definitely not eat it, so he stood up with a strong spirit, walked to Wan Qiuqing and said, "Then eat a little." ”
Wan Qiuqing smiled, put the casserole on the ground, took off the two pairs of chopsticks stacked on the lid of the pot, lifted the lid of the casserole, and suddenly the thick aroma of porridge spread, she comforted while serving the porridge: "The deceased is gone, and the living are like this."
。 At present, foreign enemies are around, the five major families are eyeing each other, our Qi family is shallow in Yancheng, and if one is not careful, he will be drowned by the wind and waves, and the burden will be on your father alone, and sooner or later he will be crushed, so you must temporarily put aside your grief and help your father carry the burden together. Our family of five or five will unite as one and will definitely survive this catastrophe. And the body is the capital of the battle, so you must take care of your body, and you can't fall before the enemy makes a move. ”
"Hmm. Qi Yoyo nodded vigorously, snatched the full porridge bowl from Wan Qiuqing's hand, and said in a resolute tone: "I want to eat three bowls!"
"Mother, I'll come. Qi Changfeng took the porridge spoon and bowl from Wan Qiuqing's hand, held the porridge and said, "Mother, you eat first, and I will eat it after you finish eating." "Because there are only two pairs of chopsticks.
Wan Qiuqing shook his head and said, "There are no guests coming now, you hurry up and eat." And the porridge is added with red glutinous rice, my mother doesn't like to eat it, and I will go to the kitchen to eat some white porridge. I wonder if you eat deliciously, don't you?"
"Well, fragrant, delicious. Qi Yoyo nodded again and again and said, "Mother, isn't red glutinous rice only available in the far north?
"The mother-in-law brought it from the north, and only brought a little bit. If you like to eat, ask someone to bring more next time. Wan Qiuqing said.
"Well, it's delicious. Qi Changfeng took a bite and tasted it, and couldn't help but nod his head in praise.
Wan Qiuqing looked at Qi Changfeng, his eyes suddenly turned red, don't turn his head to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and choked up: "Niang Sheng is a little for the second child to eat." ”
As she spoke, she took a little with a porridge spoon and went to Qi Changkong's coffin and ordered it.
Qi Yoyo looked at her mother's pretending to be sad, and gave her a thumbs up in her heart and praised her for her good acting skills.
Because Wan Qiuqing said that she didn't like to eat red glutinous rice, and the brother and sister were indeed hungry, the two ate one bowl after another, and after a while, they ate all the porridge.
Qi Yoyo touched her bulging belly and stuck out her tongue playfully.
"Feng'er, is the red glutinous rice delicious?" Wan Qiuqing cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and asked Qi Changfeng.
Qi Changfeng nodded and said: "It's delicious, it's more fragrant than white glutinous, and the taste is also better." ”
"Hmm. That mother will ask someone to bring more next time. "Wanqiu Qingdao.
Qi Yoyo suddenly pouted and said, "Mother, you are patriarchal, eccentric, and only ask the eldest brother and don't ask me." ”
"Your father is about to spoil you to heaven, if I don't press it, I'm afraid you won't know what your last name is. Wan Qiuqing glared at her angrily.
"Hey," Qi Yo laughed.
Wan Qiuqing packed up the dishes and chopsticks, picked up the casserole and turned to leave, just walked out of the spiritual shed, her tears suddenly rushed out like a flood that burst the embankment, and she couldn't stop.
Red glutinous is a specialty of northern Xinjiang, and she likes to eat it very much.
When Qi Changfeng was six years old, a bag of red glutinous rice was put into the Zhouji rice grain shop in Nanliucheng, and when she heard about it, she immediately sent someone to buy dozens of catties.
She cooked it herself that night
After eating the porridge, I thought that Qi Changfeng must like to eat it, but Qi Changfeng really liked to eat it, and ate two large bowls in one go, but as soon as he finished eating, he fainted, and there were red spots on his body in large patches.
Fortunately, the treatment was timely, otherwise Qi Changfeng would have lost half his life even if he didn't die.
The diagnosis given by the doctor was that Qi Changfeng's physique and red glutinous rice were inadvertible and could not be eaten.
Wan Qiuqing didn't believe it at first, but the doctor asked her to cook another pot of red glutinous porridge and only gave Qi Changfeng a small bite, but Qi Changfeng immediately had a red rash on his body, which made her have to believe it.
But just now, Qi Changfeng ate four bowls in a row, and there was no adverse reaction in his body. She looked closely, and there was not even a single red spot on the exposed skin.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the hundreds of large and small family leaders gathered in the meeting hall of the East Court finally began to disperse. These people are either frowning, solemn, and preoccupied, or they are filled with righteous indignation, muttering, and very dissatisfied, and there are also a very small number of people who look indifferent and have nothing to do with themselves.
Judging from their expressions, it is not difficult to deduce that the outcome of this negotiation, which lasted almost a day, did not seem to be satisfactory.
The crowd quickly dispersed, and the crowded conference room quickly became empty, until only thirteen people remained, sitting firmly in their chairs, with no intention of getting up and leaving.
Qi Wuwei sat on the main seat, and there were five people sitting on the left hand side on both sides of the hall, from front to back were the leaders of the five major families of Tang, Yu, Xue, Ma, and He, and seven people were sitting on the right hand, and they were the rulers of the seven major families of Zhao, Sun, Zhou, Li, Zhang, Wei, and Qian, all of whom were supported by Qi Wuwei.
"Do you want to stay for dinner?" Qi Wuwei asked with a faint expression as his gaze fell on the people of the five major families.
"Qi Wuwei, do you really think that you can cover the sky with one hand in Yancheng? You can completely ignore our five major families, and even take it at will?" He Tongtian, the head of the He family, who was sitting in the fifth place on the left, had a gloomy expression, stared at Qi Wuwei, and asked in a deep voice.
"The master of the He family" Qi Wuwei shouted in a long voice, "Ming'er had better tie up Ling Gongzi early in the morning to be punished, otherwise the city lord will present a chapter to the imperial capital, beware of the emperor angrily punishing the nine clans of the He family!"
He Tongtian furrowed his eyebrows, and shouted: "Qi Wu fornicated with thieves for you, believe it or not, the old man sued the imperial capital with a complaint, and let Emperor Su behead you all over the house!"
"Alright! Alright!" Tang Yongning, the head of the Tang family, shouted impatiently, "It's been a day's worth of fighting, isn't it interesting? Qi Wuwei, give up 50 percent of your interests, and our five major families will fully support you in fighting this battle, otherwise you won't be able to fight this battle." ”
Tang Yongning's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
"The Tang family master is forcing us to a dead end. Before Qi Wuwei could speak, the head of the Zhao family on the right side looked at Tang Yongning in a displeased tone.
Tang Yongning glanced at him disdainfully, and said, "It's already good that you can have a mouthful of soup to drink, and you still want meat and bones?
