After listening to Sun Siyuan's words, Zhao Youqian thought about it seriously. He had never been to Baobao Mountain, but he also knew that this place, compared to the mountain range against which Baguan Village was backed, Baobao Mountain was only a larger mound at best, and it was really worthy of the name "Baobao".

It's a good idea to put the sheep in the pen.

"Thousands of acres of land, the emperor may not agree!" The housekeeper who burned the fire interjected.

"You think the emperor is too stingy!" Sun Siyuan glanced at him: "Hundred acres of Huangzhuang, that is the number of fertile fields in the capital, didn't the emperor say to give it?" A 'baby mountain', can the emperor still be reluctant? Look at your appearance, you have flattened the emperor! ”

Steward Zhuang was blocked by Sun Siyuan, turned around and asked the secret servant to repeat Sun Siyuan's original words to the emperor, and the emperor smiled after listening: "That's it, don't let her look down on me, just give her the baby mountain circle, or a ten-year contract." ”

The meatballs were fried, and a few dry goods were fried in the pot, and the housekeeper Zhuang was good at burning the fire, and the fierce fire was burned, plus Zhao Youqian fried well, and there were few fried paste and black. Especially the small half basket of peanuts, the shell looks the same as the raw one! Sun Siyuan thought, if she let herself come, I'm afraid it will be all black, although it is no problem to eat, but it doesn't look so pleasing to the eye!

After burning porridge and cutting some braised pork, Sun Siyuan and the others took a big steamed bun and ate it very sweetly. It was a little late to toss, and after washing up, a few people fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Zhao Youqian got Sun Siyuan up, had a simple breakfast, boiled some paste, and the two began to paste couplets.

Zhao Youqian is tall and tall, and there is nothing in the door of the house that he can't reach. After pasting the couplet and pasting the window flower, Sun Siyuan was afraid that Zhao Youqian would not be able to do it, so she instructed over and over again: "Be careful, don't tear it up, oh, don't stick it crookedly if you have money." ”

The housekeeper took out the vegetables in the cellar and began to wash and chop the vegetables, Sun Siyuan said that he was going to make a big meal at noon. She was ready to call Brother Jiang and several others, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner would not be left, and eating a meal at noon was also considered friendship.

After cutting the vegetables, the kitchen will belong to Zhao Youqian and his wife, and the housekeeper Zhuang put on the carriage and went to the southern suburbs to pick up people.

When the meal was about to be ready, Steward Zhuang came back with someone, Zhang San and Li Si got down from the carriage first, followed by Brother Jiang, and then he escorted Sister-in-law Jiang down. Sister-in-law Jiang is four months pregnant, and her abdomen has begun to bulge.

"Sister-in-law Jiang, it's so beautiful today." Sun Siyuan knew that a few people had arrived, so she came over to greet her.

"I've seen Madame." A few people saluted. Sun Siyuan waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't be polite, come in, it's time to eat." "Several people are wearing new clothes, they have carefully cleaned up their own, and they look much better in temperament, but they don't look like they were all gray when they first bought them.

Several people were a little excited, Chinese New Year's Eve, a few of them got together to eat some good, even if it was the New Year, who knew that the Zhuang butler actually took them over, saying that it was the end of the year, and they had a reunion dinner in the mansion.

They also came to the house when the books were printed, and they brought their bedding to sleep. But it was work, and this time, I came to eat the New Year's dinner!

Zhao Youqian saw that a few people had arrived, so he announced that the meal would be opened, and the housekeeper of Zhuang set up the stool and served the food on the table with Zhao Youqian.

"Brother Jiang, sister-in-law Jiang, Brother Zhang and Brother Li, sit down." Sun Siyuan greeted with a smile, and when several people saw the seven stools, their eyes were a little moist.

Zhang San and Li Si never thought that they could eat at the same table with the main family, for so many years, to have a small table with a short half section to sit in the room, it is the great grace of the main family, and they can still be at the same table!

Brother Jiang and sister-in-law Jiang are even more excited, they used to be everyone's people, and they didn't think there was anything wrong with servants eating by themselves, but after experiencing several trials and tribulations in life, they realized that those who always straighten their waists are considered people!

Sun Siyuan came out with two jars of wine: "If you have money, Chinese New Year's Eve today, I won't control you anymore, drink as much as you like, Steward Zhuang, you drink together!" ”

Five large wine bowls were placed in front of several men, and Zhao Youqian picked up a jar of wine and prepared to pour wine for a few people. A few people who had just sat down stood up in a panic and stopped Zhao Youqian: "Don't you dare to let the master do it!" ”

Sun Siyuan smiled aside: "You are blind, there is the smallest amount of money on this table, why can't I pour wine for you, to say that the dishes on this table are all rich to cook." ”

"This, this ......" several people were speechless.

At a meal, the three big men who ate it almost didn't shed tears, and Sister-in-law Jiang couldn't help crying when she ate the bowl of shredded chicken and white fungus.

After asking carefully, I found out that Sister-in-law Jiang loved to eat white fungus when she was a child, but the quantity of this thing was too small and the price was extremely expensive. The Jiang family has been an official for generations, but they have no family background, and Jiang's sister-in-law's father dotes on his daughter, so he went into the mountains to find the white fungus when he was resting, and once even accidentally broke his leg.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

In this life, it may be difficult to see each other again.

After eating, Sun Siyuan gave everyone a red envelope. At first, no one was willing to take it: "Isn't it already a 'year-end bonus', how can you ask for money again." ”

"That's the year-end bonus, thank you for your hard work on weekdays, this is the New Year's red envelope, purely for a festive purpose, don't refuse!"

After taking the red envelope, Steward Zhuang was about to send a few people back, and Sun Siyuan took out another bag of flour: "This is the best glutinous rice noodles, you can use this for the dumplings, keep it delicious!" ”

This is the glutinous rice she planted in the space, and the quality is naturally guaranteed.

Watching the carriage leave, Sun Siyuan thought that it was very hard to run around during the day, and she had to add food to it at night, and the vegetables in the space were full!

At noon, the two of them lay on the bed and rested for a while, and after getting up, they began to knead the dough and chop the stuffing and make dumplings.

After coming to the capital, Sun Siyuan also made dumplings, and Miao Han ate them once, so he came up with his own method. Later, the Miao family launched dumplings, which were very popular and sold very well, and many people were willing to take the time to make their own food, but it took a little more effort than making steamed buns.

Sun Siyuan has only made dumplings, but others have drawn inferences from one another, making fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, and various fillings, and dumplings have entered the lives of the people in the capital in this way, and gradually spread to other places.

When making dumplings, Sun Siyuan quietly washed a few prepared gold and silver leaves and wrapped them in, ready to please the winner. Sun Siyuan thought he was doing secrets, but in fact, Zhao Youqian saw it in his eyes, he naturally knew why Sun Siyuan was like this, and he secretly had a plan in his heart.

In the evening, cook dumplings and make soup balls, although there is no need to eat dumplings, but Zhao Youqian still prepared four large dishes and four small dishes, and the Chinese New Year's Eve meal was more hearty.

The dumplings were cooked, Sun Siyuan wanted to serve the rice, but Zhao Youqian stopped him, and he wanted to serve the dumplings himself.

A moment later, five bowls full of dumplings were served.
