Yamiyuki smiled and looked at the three little ones, and the child named Marisa that Knock brought with her seemed to be staring at her like Merly had a grudge...... She was holding a stove candy and gnawing with joy.

This sugar is made from yellow rice and malt, which is very sticky and home-made sugar, and people in the north usually use this sugar to worship their ancestors and gods during the New Year's holidays.

The captain probably wanted to try out the sales of these specialties from their hometown, and when he found that he couldn't even do retail, he decisively decided to give up the normal store sales, and he found Yemixue to sell these specialties half and half give them away.

This batch of specialties includes a total of six hot pots, eight pairs of lanterns, a box of fireworks, two zhang Xi cloth and ten catties of shepherd's cabbage.

After reading the list, Xue Xue suddenly felt that this captain was really very thoughtful, hot pot lanterns or something is easy to understand, although people here do not have the habit of eating hot pot, but they can find a few local tyrants who are willing to taste fresh, but what are you doing with shepherd's cabbage?

"Because there was too little communication between the two sides, it ended up being this kind of joke... Anyway, which stupid rumor doesn't have a shepherd's cabbage in Europe? ”

Seeing the snow at night, he lowered his head and continued to wash the vegetables, many of these purses that were preserved by the soil culture have become yellowish because of the sea breeze, and they are said to be ten catties but they can really eat only five or six catties......

Sitting next to her, Dong Dong tried very hard to nibble a few bites on the long stove candy, and then took it in his mouth and began to help Xue Xue pick vegetables, the sugar stick of about a foot was full of the little guy's tooth marks, it seems that Dong Dong can't help this hard and sticky tooth strange candy for the time being.

Marisa and Melly on the other side also have their own jobs, Melly is using wood chips to dice fresh tofu bit by bit, while Marisa is busy kneading dough, as a child who grew up in the country, she is much more skilled than Melly.

The menu specially planned by Ye Jianxue for late hair, including shepherd's cabbage tofu soup, shepherd's cabbage box, shepherd's cabbage egg cake, shepherd's cabbage spring rolls, shepherd's cabbage balls... At a glance, there are almost no dishes without shepherd's cabbage on the name, and it seems that she is planning to use these five catties of camelina for the New Year.

"Sister Xue Xue~ Why do you want to bring knives, bows and arrows and armor to this room?"

Xiao Maoyu, who was holding a sugar melon, asked curiously.

She was referring to the weapons and armor directly west of the house, which had been placed in the room with the words on it, but now in the room where everyone was preparing a big meal, and the little one thought the armor mask looked a little scary.

"Well~ There is a custom of worshipping ancestors during this festival, but I don't have ancestral tablets and portraits, so I have to use this set of armor to make sense."

Ye Jianxue smiled and answered Dongdong's question, this armor is actually just an ordinary set of bonus equipment, not a century-old family's heirloom armor at all, Xue Xue threw the equipment into the meditation room just to break with her past self.

"Huh? Does Sister Xuexue's hometown also have such a tradition? There are also a lot of ancestral armor in the manor's showroom! ”

The girl was intrigued by the subject, and although she was still a child, Melly understood the glory of the family and the ancestors.

"I heard Uncle Blue say that when the Huns were not attacking, there was a larger showroom in the family castle, which not only stored the weapons and armor used by the ancestors of the Hearn family, but also the equipment used by the ancestors who fought together."

"What's this? My dad also had a suit of armor...... But I don't want him to wear this armor, and I don't want the glory of a warrior or something. ”

Marisa, who recalls bad things, is very depressed.

"Mom has become a cold tombstone, and if Dad has to wear cold armor, sooner or later he will become like Mom, right? I don't want that. ”

'Suffer! Melly is an aristocratic child who values honor, and she will definitely be angry when she hears Marisa's words! ’

Yami Yuki just wanted to open her mouth to mediate the conflict between the two parties, but what she didn't expect was that Melly, who should have been angry, nodded in agreement and said to Marisa.

"Hmmm! We thought the same thing! I don't want my brother to look like he wears armor, I prefer my brother to my cold and hard armor! ”

Melly's clearest impression of her father was a hug, and her father was wearing a plate armor at the time, which made the arms that should have been full of warmth made it very uncomfortable, so she didn't really like armor very much.

The two children who saw the same thing immediately confronted each other, and Melly no longer thought that Marisa was a strange child, and Marisa also thought that Merry was a good boy to get along with, and they chatted happily together, but forgot about the squeaky and candy knock aside.

After the feast was almost done, Yami Xue turned out the wood and mallet, and announced to the children with an excited face.

"Here's the highlight of the New Year! Let's have fun making rice cakes together! ”

Because of the company of three children, Ye Jianxue gradually let go of the reserve of her big sister, and completely entered the state of playing, she prepared the glutinous rice and tools very well, ready to carry out the traditional activity of her hometown for the New Year - beating rice cakes.

In fact, there are many activities to celebrate the New Year in her hometown, but the night snow that has been living in a foreign country all the year round has basically forgotten all the time, if it weren't for her own dim sum shop, this girl might not even forget to eat rice cakes during the New Year.

It takes two people to work together to make rice cakes, so Xue Xue said to the three dumbfounded children after waving the rice cake mallet very imposingly.

"You guys! Here's a help! ”

It's not that the three children don't want to help, it's just that the appearance of the guy in Sister Xue's hand is too lethal and scares them.

"That...... Sister Xuexue, can you let me smash the rice cake? ”

The smartest Melly quickly thought of a solution, the murder weapon or something must be controlled in her own hands!

"Huh? That's fine...... Why don't you work with Marisa! ”

As she spoke, Yami handed the gavel to Melly, and Marisa, who had been ordered, walked over to the barrel.

'Is it really okay?' Marisa stared at the eldest lady in front of her with uneasy eyes.

'It's okay! Look at me! Melly reassured her with the same look, and then she raised her mallet and smashed it hard at the steamed glutinous rice.

One time! Twice! Three clicks!

Boom!

"Ahh

Pounding rice cakes requires a rhythm, and Melly, who swings the mallet quickly and urgently, soon finds that the mallet in her hand is smashed against Marisa's head, startled, and she quickly wants to stop, but the inertia of the mallet takes her around in place.

Luckily, Marisa wasn't hit directly by the mallet, but was hit on the head by the mallet that spun around in a circle.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! QAQ: "Melly, who knew she was causing trouble, quickly apologized.

"Woo...... Marisa understood Merly's mistake, but she was now grinning with her teeth clutched, unable to speak.

"Hah...... Well, let's help someone? ”

Ye Jianxue looked at the mallet that returned to his hand, and looked at the three in front of him with a wry smile.

Melly and Marisa immediately hid behind the bunker, which was called Knock Knock......

"Woo......"

The little guy who had been pushed out was shrunk by the rice cake bucket, and Marisa's appearance just now made her understand that it must be uncomfortable to be hit by that wooden mallet.

"That...... I'm coming," Yamidi reminded him, and raised his gavel.

"Hmm!" Xiao Maoyu, who looked like a great enemy, replied nervously.

Call!

The mallet landed accurately on the rice cake with the sound of the wind, and a miserable scream was immediately transmitted to Xue Xue's ears.

"Huh?!"

Is it the rice cake screaming?

No...... In fact, it was Knock Knock screaming.

I saw this little guy crouching down with his head in his hands, as if this posture was an absolute defense that could block the direct attack of the mallet.

"Hah! It seems that the rice cake is not edible. Let's just eat sticky rice together today. ”

Looking at the three imps who were completely useless, Ye Jianxue gave up decisively.

"Let's have fun today!"
