You also have to find mint, mugwort leaves, artemisia grass and other plants to hang on the door to ward off evil spirits. Wait until the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the day of the official Dragon Boat Festival, bathe with grass boiled water to drive away evil spirits and avoid harm.

There are more particular people, but also to make white cords, sachets, talisman hairpins, etc., you can wear them yourself, or you can give gifts to each other.

The three villages of Dayebai, Shilitang and Shibiantian will hold a dragon boat race on the fifth day of the fifth day of the fifth month of May, where the water flow of the Ning River is gentle.

Every year, just to compete.

This matter has been allowed by the Lexu county order, and the county order will come to watch the game every year, and the county order will also prepare a lottery head, which is twenty taels or twenty taels worth of silver.

Twenty taels of silver is a lot, and ordinary people can spend a year in their homes, and they can take money or ask for things.

As early as two days ago, the Jiang family had already gone to Liu Laosan's house in the same village to buy glutinous rice and came back. The Jiang family does not have the habit of eating zongzi, but they still buy some glutinous rice every year, not zongzi, but glutinous rice.

In addition, it is necessary to drink realgar wine, and bring realgar wine to the front and back of the house to curb snakes, rats, insects and ants.

On weekdays, the family rarely eats meat, but this time Jiang took down the bacon hanging on the beam of the house and made bacon and potato stewed glutinous rice.

Yun and today are resting for the holidays, and they are very well-behaved to help the family do what they can. Don't look at the fact that he is only five years old, the children in the village basically start to get into household chores at this age. There is no one in the countryside who is pampered. Li Qing knows how to guide him, so that he will not get tired of housework. A gentleman must not know the grains, Li Qing, I don't want to raise my own children.

After lunch, the people of the village spontaneously went to the shallow waters of the Ning River, where the people named it Po'er Roll.

Li Qing carried the basket on his back, Jiang carried the burden, and Yun Ji held a small bench, and they were going to sell fried ghosts. There is nothing to be ashamed of this kind of thing, in addition to watching dragon boats, it is to sell things, many people will do this, and you can also meet pickers who go south and north there.

Although it was not too early or too late to go, many people had already gathered by the river. Through the gap in the crowd, you can see several dragon boats on the water.

According to the practice of previous years, the dragon boat in Shilitang Village is composed of hunters in the village, farmers with strength, and Xiucai.

Shilitang is a team of 21 people, with two helmsmen, one drummer and one gong player, 16 rowers in the middle, and two substitutes.

Li Qing set up his stall next to a sachet stall.

There are people selling baked cakes nearby, and some people have already set up tents to sell some wine and meat. After research, Li Qing figured out the pot stickers not long ago. So this time they brought a plate of potstickers, and the bread was vegetarian. I used to make more than a tael of silver by selling fritters. At this rate, Li Qing thinks that she should be able to save enough money for the next step at the end of the year.

The fried ghost is no longer known to everyone, many people have eaten the fried ghost on the Jiang family's snack stall, and the taste is very good. So as soon as the stall was set up, someone came up to ask, and it was quickly overcrowded.

The uninformed are wondering what it is that makes it so popular. Li Qing's frying dough sticks technology is becoming more and more mature, and at first there was a bit of stiff chewiness, but now only the crispy feeling remains, so the two picks were soon snatched up, but no one cared about the potstickers.

The Ning River under the wind rippled, and three men and one woman sat in the four-corner pavilion not far away. The man wore a crown in a bun, and the woman wore a girl's bun without a hairpin on her head.

They all do one thing, and that is to eat Li Qing's fried ghosts.

"Well, I didn't expect that there were such delicious snacks in this Shu Di Lexu, which is a good thing that we have never had in Kyoto." One of the men sat down on a stool, took two sips from his teacup, and swallowed the contents of his mouth.

"Childe, the little one just saw the new snack potstickers in Beijing at the woman's stall, but I didn't expect the practice of potstickers to spread to this remote Shu land." The little guy on the side bowed his waist and said.

The boy in the mouth of the little guy immediately straightened his body and looked at the man opposite, the man opposite was good-looking, with a row of beards on his lips, thick sword eyebrows, and he looked very serious.

"Brother Liao, what do you think?"

"Look at what my brother said, that potsticker is not a unique skill, someone can do it in Beijing, and no one in this Shu can do it." Before Brother Liao could speak, the little girl on the side spoke first, and there was a lot of ridicule in and out of her words. "It's this fried ghost, the first time I've seen it, it's very fresh, and somehow, it makes this thing swell so much."

"Little sister is right, I think this thing is made of yeast, someone has done it before, it tastes hard and dry, it's not as crispy as this." The man on the other side said, staring at the fritters in his hand.

"I suddenly smelled a business opportunity, if we bring it back to Beijing...... the man said excitedly. The three of them all looked at Brother Liao.

This person known as Brother Liao is a Su businessman, Liao Xing, the eldest son of the Liao family in Suzhou, known as the iron-faced king of the business world. The reason is that cold face, which makes people shudder, and the two tremble. It's a pity that such a person doesn't go to war, as long as he goes into battle, a face is enough to scare off a million enemy troops. This is the people's evaluation of Liao Xing.

"If you can buy the recipe, you can't do it." Liao Xingdao.

Several people have long been accustomed to the cold face of their eldest brother, and they gathered around to discuss.

In fact, Liao Xing didn't mean to do this, but he was born with facial muscle stiffness, commonly known as facial paralysis, and no one knew about it except his own family. Over time, it has left an iron-faced impression in the hearts of others.

Liqing's potstickers here are also about to be sold out, the bottom of the potstickers is crispy and crispy, the filling is full, and the salt taste is heavier, most of them were bought by the people in the wine and meat stall next door.

The people around saw that Li Qing's things were selling quickly, and they couldn't help but blush, but they were helpless in front of the public, so they had to shout desperately, expecting more people to buy their things.

Li Qing also ended up relaxed, and he could take his son to wave the flag and shout for the dragon boat in his village. Jiang has seen many dragon boat races like this, and he has long been less expectant in his heart. She is now more interested in selling small stalls for money, so she took the initiative to guard the stalls. Li Qing carried Yun Ji and walked towards the river.

"Brother Liao, I'll send someone to the stall to ask, buy it at the lowest price, and take it to Shangjing and Suzhou." The man who hung Lang Langdang was Mrs. Liao Xing's younger brother Zhang Desheng, also known as the brother-in-law. And the remaining man is Liao Yong, the second son of the Liao family, and the little girl is the sixth miss of the Liao family, who is a concubine, but she has a very good relationship with these three people, so she also brought her with her to Shu this time.
