Chapter 46: Dragon Boat Festival (3)
After Mu Chen finished speaking, he really patted Mu Jun's head again.
"Brother Jun'er, you have hair on your head."
Mu Dazhuang pointed to the tuft of dull hair on Mu Jun's head and laughed.
The dumb hair on Mu Jun's head was pulled up by Mu Chen when Mu Chen patted Mu Jun's head just now.
"Jun'er, you wait, I'll stroke it for you."
Mu Chen smiled, stretched out a hand, and pressed Mu Jun's stupid hair.
"Mu Jun, this kid is really good."
Aunt Hua looked at the harmonious scene behind her and smiled.
Murray quietly took Aunt Hua's hand in her hand, and Aunt Hua blushed in shame.
"The ox cart is leaving."
As soon as Hu Qing raised his whip, the ox cart drove towards Mujia Village, laughing and laughing along the way.
……
"Aunt Hua, Uncle Lei, I'll get out of the car first."
Mu Chen asked Mu Dazhuang to get off the ox cart first, then Mu Juncai got off the ox cart, and finally Mu Chen, while he was giving the copper, Mu Chen said goodbye to Aunt Hua and Uncle Lei, and then walked on the path home.
"Chen girl, you must wait for us tomorrow."
Aunt Hua was afraid that Mu Chen would miss the appointment tomorrow, so she reminded her.
"Mother, you've said this to Sister Chen several times, and my ears are calloused."
Mu Dazhuang covered his ears with his hands and said such a sentence to Aunt Hua, Aunt Hua was angry and pulled Mu Dazhuang's ears.
Mu Dazhuang: I was so wronged, I told the truth, and I was pulled out of my ears.
"Xiaohua, you let him go, he just has a little mouth."
Murray persuaded on the side, and said it very lukewarmly.
Mu Dazhuang: How could I have such a father.
"I'll spare you this time, I'll see if it's hurt."
Aunt Hua put down the hand that grabbed Mu Dazhuang's ear, Mu Dazhuang rubbed his ear, and looked uncomfortable.
"Don't pretend, I know how hard I used."
Aunt Hua did not hesitate to dismantle Mu Dazhuang, Mu Dazhuang's face turned red and threw himself into Aunt Hua's arms.
"Lao Hu, let's catch the car!"
Murray saw that the two of them were having a fight, so he ordered Hu Qing to drive the ox cart.
……
Entering the house, Mu Chen piled the things he bought on the ground and looked at them the same.
After ordering, Mu Chen put the things in the kitchen, and there was nothing missing.
Taking the sickle, Mu Chen and Mu Jun went to pick the branches of the bamboo.
There are some bamboos with large leaves in the village, and the annual Dragon Boat Festival is the time when the long bamboo has the greatest foot traffic.
Mu Chen walked over and saw Mu Juhua at a glance.
"Sister Chrysanthemum, are you here to pick bamboo leaves?"
Mu Chen looked at the sickle in Mu Juhua's hand.
Mu Juhua looked at Mu Jun.
"Jun'er has grown up a lot."
Mu Juhua walked up to Mu Jun and looked at Mu Jun.
Mu Chen: Why am I ignored by you, I'm such a big person~
"Sister Chrysanthemum, I'll just watch you pick bamboo leaves."
Mu Jun replied briskly, and Mu Juhua was happy for a while.
Subsequently, several young girls came, all of whom would look at Mu Jun, which made Mu Chen lose for a while, and Mu Jun was simply the rhythm of the group pet.
"Sister, the chrysanthemum sisters have already gone to pick bamboo leaves, so let's go too."
Mu Jun looked at his lost sister and stepped forward to say a word to Mu Chen.
"Okay."
Mu Chen instantly felt that he was not lost, his younger brother was so caring, a little warm man.
Taking the scythe, Mu Chen and Mu Jun joined the army of removing bamboo leaves, and soon, Mu Jun was holding some bamboo leaves in his hands.
"Jun'er, that's enough, let's go home and soak glutinous rice, and we can eat zongzi at night."
Mu Chen looked at the bamboo leaf in Mu Jun's hand, it was almost fine.
"Okay, sister, come forward."
Mu Jun made a way and gave Mu Chen out of the bamboo forest.
When he got home, Mu Chen soaked the glutinous rice he bought for five catties.
When soaking glutinous rice, let Mu Jun wash the bamboo leaves, and after the bamboo leaves were washed, Mu Chen's glutinous rice was already soaked.
Mu Chen took a pair of scissors out, cut off a section of the bamboo leaves that Mu Jun had washed, and put them in a basin.
"Jun'er, do you think I should make more salty zongzi or more sweet zongzi?"
Mu Chen likes to eat salty, but he has to see whether Mu Jun likes to eat salty or sweet.
"Sister, I love salty zongzi."
Mu Jun thought of the zongzi he had eaten before, and he wanted to keep his saliva, his father was still there at that time, and the zongzi wrapped by his father were delicious.
Thinking about it, Mu Jun had tears rolling in his eyes.
"That's good, what's wrong with you, why are you crying."
Mu Chen looked at Mu Jun, but found that there were tears in the other party's eyes, wasn't it just a zongzi? Moved him.
"Sister, I'm fine, I just miss my father."
For his parents, Mu Chen also had extravagant hopes in the past, but in the end, he was disappointed again and again.
Every time I watched other children be adopted away, without adopting myself, Mu Chen was very disappointed before, and later, when he grew up, he also reduced that kind of loss, and in the end, he couldn't feel that kind of loss.
"Jun'er, don't cry, my sister taught you to make zongzi, you can wrap it better than Daddy's."
Mu Chen patted Mu Jun's shoulder, and Mu Chen could only comfort Mu Jun's tears like this.
"Yes, sister."
Mu Jun burst into laughter, snot running from his nose.
"Little Flower Cat."
Mu Chen took out the straw paper and wiped Mu Jun's snot clean, then he looked at Mu Jun in front of him and made a joke.
"Sister, if I were a little flower cat, you would also be a little flower cat."
Mu Jun looked at Mu Chen, his eyes were full of happiness, my sister is so good.
"Okay, I'm also a little flower cat, let's prepare things and wrap a lot of zongzi to feed the little flower cat."
Mu Chen smiled, and then with the movement in his hand, he cut off the head and tail of the bamboo leaf in his hand.
Soon, after cutting the bamboo leaves, Mu Chen soaked the bamboo leaves in the hot water for a quarter of an hour, and then took out the bamboo leaves, and the bamboo leaves had softened at this time.
"Jun'er, sister, go find a piece of thread, you cut them to the same length."
Mu Chen went to the room and took out a ball of cotton thread, the pure white cotton thread lined Mu Chen's hands were very good-looking.
"Look, that's the length."
Mu Chen picked up the scissors and gave Mu Jun a length to demonstrate,
Mu Jun studied very seriously, and after Mu Chen cut it once, it was Mu Jun who cut it himself.
Mu Chen took the things he wanted to make sweet zongzi and matched them, that is, there was a red date, five peanuts, and some red beans in the zongzi.
Mu Chen took the red beans and boiled them, the red dates Mu Chen put aside, and the peanuts Mu Chen also put aside.
Mu Jun cut the cotton thread, Mu Chen took the cotton thread, took the bamboo leaves, made a gesture of the bamboo leaves, and took the soaked glutinous rice.
After pouring water into the glutinous rice, adding some sugar to it, and stirring it evenly, Mu Chen began to wrap the zongzi.
"Jun'er, look at it, I'm going to start making zongzi."
Mu Chen and Mu Jun said hello, and the movements in their hands had already begun.
