Girls of the same age give gifts between families mostly hand-made things.

"Qinghe, I don't have the female red skills like you, this handkerchief is already my limit." Shi Xiaoxin took out a flat small box, inside which was a stacked square Jinpa, "But in order to express my little heart, look, this pair of pearls was made by me, and I consulted people, and these pearls were selected one by one and inlaid on them." ”

On Shi Xiaoxin's birthday, Hua Qinghe gave her a complete set of clothes, which is not comparable to ordinary things, so Shi Xiaoxin used her heart to design the style of the bead flower and prepare the materials for making the bead flower.

"It's so pretty." The bead flowers are placed on the handkerchief, the pink brocade cloth is made into the shape of a flower, and the stamens are replaced by pearls, which is very exquisite.

"It's really heart-to-heart." Wu Yanying smiled, "Sister Jiahe and I have made purses, I just saw it, Sister Jiahe is more dexterous than me, Qinghe, you can't dislike your cousin." ”

Luo Jiahe smiled embarrassedly, "I have the same mind as you, and I don't dare to play a big knife in front of Qinghe, so I made small things, which are also practical, these must be used every day, and they can be replaced." ”

"Yes, second sister, mine is the same as Sister Xiaoxin's, it's a veil." Luo Jiamiao took out the handkerchief she had made, it was made of cotton, and the corner was embroidered with some flowers and plants.

In fact, the handkerchief is cotton cloth that is more absorbent, and the Luo family has been using cotton cloth to make it, Luo Jiamiao from practical considerations, and finally used cotton cloth, but in addition to the cotton cloth, Luo Jiamiao also made a hand-woven red rope bracelet with Luo Jiahe, which was decorated with a few small beads made of gold, the beads were very small and light, but they also hollowed out the private money saved by Luo Jiahe and Luo Jiamiao.

Hua Qinghe stretched out his right hand without jewelry, and Luo Jiahe personally put the red rope string gold bead bracelet on Hua Qinghe's wrist.

Hua Qingtan sent a complete set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, "Qinghe's painting skills have risen, and the words are more and more colorful, I have found a lot of high-quality pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and my current skills are a bit wasteful with these, and this set is just right for Qinghe." ”

The pigment prepared by Hua Qingxin, "For the fifth sister to paint." ”

"Mine is the least effort-saving." Wu Yanjiao said with a smile, she prepared the cloth, "Qinghe Nuhong is so good, the cloth can only play the greatest value in her hands, so I will be a diligent porter." ”

Hua Qinghe likes the gifts carefully prepared by Shi Xiaoxin and the others very much, and they all vote for their own favorites.

"Thank you, let's eat and drink well today, for this birthday banquet, I specially thought of a few desserts, I know you all like it, before lunch, we use a little, and then I take you to play a new game, I specially prepared."

Egg tarts and puddings were well received, and the eight gathered in Hua Qinghe's boudoir to start playing games, as well as chilled fruits, candied fruit and bird's nest bowls with rock sugar and red dates, as well as various pastries and dried fruits.

Hua Qinghe is to borrow a few modern games to ancient times, it is slightly more difficult to fight the landlord, Hua Qinghe made a few sets of poker to play climbing turtles, as long as you know the number, you can play the number, the rules are said, all understand it.

However, climbing the turtle is a game of three people, Hua Qinghe explained the rules, and the three of them first gave a demonstration, and then several people had a lot of fun.

The little girl at this age is also the age when she is about to fall in love or about to get married, and she is even more curious about the young man than others, Luo Jiahe, Hua Qinghe and Wu Yanjiao in the house are already people who already have objects, and the three of them were caught teasing and questioning.

It is to be said that Hua Qinghe has set rules such as truth or dare, and the big adventure is also a talent show, chanting poems, singing and dancing, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting...... As long as you have talent, you can perform.

"Qinghe, this is a bit similar to drumming and passing flowers, but this one is more fun, you can choose to tell the truth if you lose, or you can choose a talent show." Shi Xiaoxin said with a smile.

After a morning of play, the feelings between the eight people were getting closer and closer, and the laughter and laughter did not stop until the next person came to report that it was time to have lunch, and everyone stopped the game.

Summer lunch is not too much, but exquisite and delicious.

Qinglian prepared a few cold dishes, candied boiled peanuts, the first batch of tender peanuts harvested, boiled to eat the best, put some salty candied fruit to enhance the taste, peanuts open the entrance, with the salty sweet taste of candied fruit, especially delicious.

Shredded chicken, Songhua egg mixed with tofu, honey roast duck and braised chicken feet, five cold dishes, only a small portion per person.

Wait until you start to eat cold dishes, hot dishes will slowly come up, although the weather is hot, but the hot dishes are always freshly fried and cooked.

Hua Qinghe had people hang a gauze tent under the eaves before, and an ice basin was placed in the gauze tent, and then eight small tables formed a circle, each person had a small vulture, and had lunch outside the house.

"It's incomparable to Lufu Lotus Village, but there are also a lot of flowers and trees in the courtyard, that's all, let's eat and drink." Hua Qinghe said with a smile.

There are six hot dishes, either small plates or small bowls, suitable for one person to eat, and it also reduces the situation that a large table can not take care of the distant meals when using the meal together, what you want to eat, there are many in the small kitchen, and each dish can be continued.

As for the drinks, they are also diverse, Hua Qinghe made iced milk tea, freshly squeezed watermelon juice, pomegranate juice, and pomegranate juice was widely acclaimed.

"Qinghe, don't you know, it's very troublesome to eat pomegranates, in addition to the outer shell needs to be peeled, every meat inside also has seeds, it's too troublesome to eat, I throw it in my mouth, chew it a few times, isn't this pomegranate juice, why didn't I think of using pomegranates to make pomegranate juice." Shi Xiaoxin drank a glass of pomegranate juice with satisfaction, and said comfortably.

"But it's also painstaking work to do this, is it filtered with gauze to strain the juice and dregs?" Wu Yanying asked, she also liked it very much, "I'll let someone do it when I go back, a few days ago, Zhuangzi sent several baskets of pomegranates, fresh and sweet, when I go back, I will send some to one of you." ”

"I used a small stone mill to grind the peeled pomegranate particles into pomegranate juice." Angelica gave another large pot of pomegranate juice and explained with a smile, "It's really delicious." ”

Shi Xiaoxin and Wu Yanying have both seen the deliciousness of angelica, and they are not surprised.

"Is the watermelon juice also ground with a stone mill?" Hua Qingxin asked curiously.

"Watermelon has a lot of water, just pound it a few times." Angelica said.

"This iced milk tea is also delicious, and there are puddings cut into small pieces, red beans, and lotus seeds, which are delicious." Luo Jiamiao drank milk tea and scooped the ingredients under the spoon with a spoon, and her face was full of satisfaction.
