After returning to the village from Qingyun Valley, Yunyi's small life was much more leisurely.

Most of the monkeys on the mountain have returned to the mountain, although Miao Lao Pao said that the small insects and berries in Qingyun Valley have been eaten a lot by the ground bees that gathered some time ago, so that a small part of the monkeys may go down the mountain again due to food shortages.

But these have nothing to do with Yunyi anymore, even if the monkeys on the mountain come down again, all the wild vegetables in their own mountains and woodlands have been harvested and sold, and the same is true for other people.

And except for the things in the mountains and woodlands, it seems that Yunyi has nothing to worry about, and he plays leisurely in the small courtyard every day.

Every day, the eldest girl will come to the small courtyard to cook for Yunyi, wash clothes, chat with Yunyi, and watch movies; Occasionally, when Chen Lao came to play chess with chess, the eldest girl always stood quietly behind Yun Yi, occasionally poured tea for the two of them, and served him like a little daughter-in-law.

Except for the fact that the eldest girl does not spend the night in the small courtyard at night, every bit that the eldest girl does is the same as Yunyi's wife.

Time flies, and gradually it has come to December, and this area of Qingyun Mountain can be regarded as entering winter.

Winters in your province are not always cold, and even in the coldest months, the average temperature rarely drops below minus four degrees; And now it is only the beginning of December of the lunar calendar, and the average temperature is about seven or eight degrees, and the terrain here in Qingyun Mountain is special, and the temperature has always been around eleven or twelve degrees.

Moreover, if you encounter sunny weather, the temperature here will soar to 145 degrees at noon, and you will not feel too cold in a single dress.

This morning, the sun was shining, the wind was beautiful, and the sun was shining warmly on people.

Yun Yi was playing chess with Chen Lao in the courtyard, and a pot of wild tea from the mountain was placed on the table, steaming hot.

Several tourists also watched with great interest, also holding coarse porcelain teacups in their hands. slowly drank tea and watched the two play, with a slight envy in his expression; Maybe I think it's very comfortable to live in such a beautiful mountain village, playing chess and chatting a lot every day.

Wukong, as before, sat on the jujube tree and watched Yunyi play chess, holding melon seeds and peanuts in his little paws and eating non-stop, so that the melon seed skins and peanut shells kept falling from the tree.

"Squeak!" Suddenly, Wukong, who was sitting on the tree, squeaked, jumped down from the tree, and ran over to the place at the entrance of the small courtyard.

At this time, Yun Yi had just finished a move and was waiting for Chen Lao to make a move, so he noticed this situation. When I looked up in surprise, I saw the big girl wearing a girl's costume of the Republic of China walking into the courtyard with a light smile, and she was still carrying a small bag in her hand, I don't know what was in the road.

Wukong ran in front of the big girl, and his little paw grabbed the pocket in the big girl's hand and squeaked, looking like he wanted to open the pocket and see what was delicious inside.

"Okay, Wukong, it's all yellow rice, peanuts and other things boiled in Laba porridge, if you want to eat it, wait until the Laba porridge is boiled and I'll give it to you!" The big girl smiled lightly, and her little hand gently stroked Wukong's head.

"Squeak!" Goku likes Big Girl very much. But he was not afraid of the big girl, and continued to hold the pocket in the big girl's hand and refused to let go, until the big girl was helpless and opened the pocket.

Goku's little head immediately reached into his pocket. After checking it for a while, he took a small handful of peanuts, as well as a few dried fruits such as cinnamon, chestnuts, and almonds into his pocket, and then climbed on the shoulders of the big girl and sat down, eating the chestnuts and other dried fruits brought by the big girl with relish.

"Big girl. Is today Laba Day? Yun Yi curiously watched as the big girl put things into the kitchen, and then asked with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, isn't my uncle in a hurry?" The eldest girl smiled and greeted Chen Lao and a few tourists. Only then did he smile and say to Yun Yi.

Yun Yi scratched his head and thought about it carefully, as if today was really the Laba Festival, but he had always kept track of the days according to the solar calendar, and he really forgot it if he didn't think about it carefully.

The eldest girl stood behind Yun Yi for a while, and after watching Yun Yi and Chen Lao play a game of chess, she felt that the time was almost up, so she went to the kitchen to wash the materials of Laba porridge and prepare to make Laba porridge.

Laba is a traditional festival of the Han nationality in China, and most areas of our country have the custom of eating Laba porridge on this day. Laba porridge is made from eight kinds of fresh grains and fruits harvested in the year, and is generally sweetened.

In addition to rice, millet, mung beans, cowpeas, peanuts, jujubes and other raw materials, the porridge also adds shredded meat, radish, cabbage, vermicelli, kelp, tofu, etc.

Laba Festival is also known as the Laba Day Sacrifice, Laba Festival, Princely Lada or Buddha Enlightenment Day, the original ancient celebration of the harvest, thanks to the ancestors and gods (including the door god, the household god, the house god, the stove god, the well god) of the sacrificial ceremony, in addition to the ancestor worship and worship the activities of the gods, the custom of witchcraft activities of the wax moon drum to drive away the epidemic still exists in Xinhua and other areas of Hunan.

Later, it evolved into a religious festival to commemorate the enlightenment of Buddha Shakyamuni. The Xia Dynasty called Lari "Jiaping", the Shang Dynasty as "Qing Ceremony", and the Zhou Dynasty as "Big Wax"; Because it is held in December, it is called the month of wax, and the day of the wax festival is called the wax day. The pre-Qin wax day was the third day after the winter solstice, and the beginning of the Northern and Southern Dynasties was fixed on the eighth day of the lunar month.

Qingyun Mountain here was not more than the Laba Festival before the Ming Dynasty, but after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, due to the increasing number of foreign Han people, the ethnic minorities in this area of Qingyun Mountain who were originally Miao people were gradually called, and gradually began to live the Laba Festival.

For example, the Miao family in Qingyun Mountain Village is basically Miao people; However, due to the large number of Han people who migrated here after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the Miao people here were gradually assimilated and gradually became the same as the Han people; Only a small number of Miao people still maintain the ethnic customs of the past.

After playing a game of chess again, it was already half past ten o'clock at noon, because the eldest girl came, and she was engaged to Yunyi but was not married, according to the custom here, you can't get along with outsiders casually, Chen Lao excused himself to be a little tired, got up and said hello to Yunyi and left, and several tourists are also shrewd people, and they also said goodbye to Yunyi and left.

Yun Yi sent them out with a smile, and then returned to the kitchen and helped the big girl clean the materials together.

A lot of materials, the eldest girl's family began to prepare last night, such as peanuts soaked the night before, lotus seeds have been living almost, now as long as you wash the yellow rice, peel off the longan materials are finished.

The eldest girl put the ingredients into the pot in the same way, while Yunyi was burning the fire, and the two of them were like a couple in daily life, cooking lovingly. (To be continued.) )
