Chapter 184: Words of Compliment
Chapter 183: Words of Compliment
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, every household goes up the mountain to worship their ancestors and steam steamed buns.
Starting from the morning, a large family will prepare to eat on the day of worshipping the ancestors, and after lunch, the whole family will go up to the ancestral tomb mountain to burn incense.
Early in the morning, Xia Qiqi was woken up by Yu Guixiang.
Xia Qiqi woke up and washed up, went straight to the stove room, and made steamed buns for Yu Guixiang.
The noodles of the steamed bun were made yesterday, and they can be used directly today.
Xia Qiqi was busy kneading the steamed buns into various shapes, and when the steamed buns were steamed, he wanted to exchange these steamed buns with people with good family relations, praying for peace and smoothness.
The flavor of this ancient year is much stronger than that of modern times.
The various rituals are still there, and they must be followed.
Xia Qiqi listened to Xia Duofu and Yu Guixiang chattering yesterday, and basically knew everything he had to pay attention to for a long time in the future.
The steamed buns are pinched one by one and start steaming.
The steamed buns were not yet ripe, and Yu Guixiang praised Xia Qiqi next to her, "Qiqi, the steamed bun you just made is so good-looking, my mother has never seen such a good-looking steamed bun!" ”
Yu Guixiang said that the shape of steamed buns can be different.
The better it looks, the more face the four rooms have.
She naturally tried her best to pinch all the classic cartoon images she watched when she was a child.
Cat, Mouse, Mickey, and Peppa Pig.
Hearing Yu Guixiang's praise, Xia Qiqi took a long breath, and finally did not disappoint his mother.
"It's good if my mother likes it! But I'm worried, Aunt Luo Juan and Aunt Zhao Lan, will they laugh at me? They don't know who pinched the steamed buns? Xia Qiqi asked uneasily.
"Look at what you kid said, why would he laugh at you? It's too late to rejoice! The steamed buns made today are all about shape, and the more beautiful the shape, the more popular they are! You hurry up and do more, my mother will take these steamed buns later and exchange them with others! Yu Guixiang said.
"Good!"
Xia Qiqi nodded in response, and stepped up to make steamed buns in his hands,
After steaming two pots of steamed buns in a row, Hua'er and Duo'er woke up.
The two younger sisters rubbed their eyes and appeared in the stove room, and when they saw the steamed buns placed next to them, they screamed one by one.
"Wow, what's this?" Duo'er asked, pointing to a steamed bun in the shape of Mickey.
"Steamed buns! Is it good-looking? Xia Qiqi asked.
"Of course it's pretty! I've never seen such a cute steamed bun, big sister, Duo'er wants it! ”
When a child likes something, he doesn't necessarily think it can be eaten.
Probably more, or like to look good.
Xia Qiqi nodded, "You pick a shape you like!" Flowers, too! ”
"By the way, eldest sister, why didn't I see Brother Ah Jiu, others?" The flowers said, looking around.
"Carried water! Do you think everyone is like you, they love to sleep, little lazy worm! Xia Qiqi stretched out his hand and rubbed it back and forth on Hua'er's nose a few times.
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Jiu carried a load of water and entered the courtyard.
Xia Qiqi hurriedly spoke up, "Ah Jiu, the steamed buns are ready!" Come and eat steamed buns! ”
Lu Jiu got up early, and he didn't eat anything to work, so he was hungry for a long time.
He carried two loads of water, walked like flying, poured the water he picked into the water tank, came up, and waited for Xia Qiqi to give him steamed buns.
After all, the steamed buns are dry and not easy to swallow.
Xia Qiqi took out the hot sauce at home and smeared it on the steamed buns, which tasted just right.
At this moment, Lao Xia's family also began to make steamed buns.
However, Lao Xia has a lot of family, so he naturally has a lot of work.
Dafang Zhao finally went out, and she seemed to be the cleanest among several daughters-in-law, so the work of pinching steamed buns fell on her.
After a while, countless steamed buns in the shape of longevity peaches were pinched.
Zhang and Ji lit a fire and cleaned up the house.
The two looked at the steamed buns pinched out by Zhao Mei'e, and they complimented each other, "It's still my sister-in-law's craftsmanship, the longevity peaches pinched out of this steamed bun are like the real thing!" ”
"But no, sister-in-law's craftsmanship, no one in our family can compare!" Ji Shi Dao.
Zhao Mei'e smiled and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Don't praise me so much, Guixiang's craftsmanship is good, you forgot, a few years ago, she made a longevity bag, and all the water spirits are mellow!" ”
"Come on! A woman who is not even qualified to enter the stove room during the New Year, what kind of craftsmanship to talk about! Zhang said angrily.
Ji also echoed, "That's it!" Ming'er is celebrating the New Year, and her mother refuses to let go, so she brings a few money-losing goods to the main house for the New Year, I estimate that she will be kicked out sooner or later! ”
"What are you talking about, even if the fourth sister-in-law can't give birth anymore, she has given birth to four daughters, and her mother won't do anything with her!!"
Zhao Mei'e spoke very fakely, while saying that Mrs. Xia would not take Yu Guixiang.
On the one hand, the unborn child in Yu Guixiang's belly was judged to be a female baby.
Mrs. Xia didn't like her granddaughter in the first place, and the other daughters-in-law were all sons and daughters of her husband.
Otherwise, life will not be easy.
Only Yu Guixiang's life is not good, the girls are born one after another, if this baby is a girl again, it is strange that Mrs. Xia doesn't kill her!
"Speaking of which, these four rooms are also shit luck, Qiqi's dead girl, since she died and came back to life, her temperament has changed, and she has earned a lot of money for the four rooms!" Zhang's tone was sour.
When Ji heard this, he hurriedly said: "What is this, it's still sister-in-law's Doudou, mother's heart and liver baby!" It's spring, and it's time for Doudou to go to school again! Doudou has this treatment, no one else, don't even think about it! ”
"That's it, Doudou is good! However, that girl is too bullying, yesterday Doudou's eyes are not eyes, and his nose is not his nose and he came back crying, saying that the girl bullied him! Sister-in-law, you can take care of it too! Crying like that, how painful it should be for Doudou! ”
Zhao Mei'e's breath was stagnant, and she naturally wished to peel off Xia Qiqi's skin in her heart.
But that girl wasn't a fuel-efficient lamp either.
She is alone, where is her opponent?
It's better to wait and see who in the family breaks out first and deals with that girl.
"Second brother and sister, third brother and sister, that's not what I said, Qiqi is the elder sister, Doudou is the younger brother, and the elder sister teaches the younger brother, isn't it a matter of course?" Zhao Mei'e said.
"Fart!"
As soon as Zhao Mei'e's words fell, Mrs. Xia walked in from outside.
She just heard Zhao Mei'e's words, and she almost died of anger.
When can my sister beat my brother?
"Mother, you...... Are you here? Zhao Mei'e looked empty.
Zhang's and Ji's looked like they were watching a good show.
Mrs. Xia pointed to Zhao Mei'e's face and said, "You listen to me, our old Xia family, the younger brother can beat the sister, and the son can teach the daughter a lesson!"
But a sister can't beat her brother, a daughter can't teach her son, our family, men are big, men are heaven! ”
"That's what my mother said! I just said it wrong, I said it wrong! Zhao Mei'e smiled wryly.
Mrs. Xia's face is better.
"Don't be lazy for me, the steamed buns will be steamed when they are ready, and I will go to the mountains later, if you delay the hour, you will all get out of here!"
