Chapter 156: Chinese New Year
Li Xiaotao couldn't smile even more, almost smiling like a flower.
This is the smiling face that Mu Jiu has never seen in Mu Rongguang's house, looking at Lin Shifu and Li Xiaotao, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
After the rice dumplings are steamed, they need to be kneaded while they are hot, and the more strength they have, the stronger the rice cake will be.
Lin Changsheng was full of energy, and after a short time, he kneaded all the rice cakes, and began to knead the rice dumplings for New Year's flowers, while Lin 15 was responsible for rolling the dumplings into a rectangular rice skin with a rolling pin.
Li Xiaotao moved faster, folded the rice skin in half, cut it into sections, spread the two ends in the middle, twisted and connected the two ends, and a beautiful New Year's flower was ready.
Making delicious food has always been Mu Jiu's second killer weapon in the palace, although he has never done it before, Li Xiaotao learned it after a little teaching, and after doing a few things, the more beautiful he became, even Li Xiaotao sighed to himself.
Mu Jiuxiao was stunned, "The beautiful ones are all made by me!" ”
Mu Sanxi carried Mu Zaien into the kitchen, "What did you do?" ”
Zhang Xiuxiu followed, "I'm here to participate." ”
As for Rose and Mu Houpu, they were arranged by Mu Jiu to the newly built house next door before the Chinese New Year.
The house is built in the wasteland yard, only half a yard away from the wing, there is their independent kitchen and dining room, usually there is something to hear in the throat, you can come directly from the side door, it is estimated that this time is also making New Year flowers and rice cakes, from time to time you can hear their hearty laughter.
Mu Xun thought that after the New Year, in the spring, the remaining wasteland on the left side was also built into a house for the brothers of the horse gang to live in, so that one left and one right could also form a protection for the middle main house.
Until the evening, the New Year's flowers are ready, and the rest is waiting for the pan to be fried.
Mu Jiu doesn't like fried food very much, and he won't digest it if he eats too much, but he only passes once a year, and it doesn't get in the way if he eats it once in a while.
When it was fried, Li Xiaotao asked Mu Sanxi to go out with Mu Zaien in his arms, so as not to splash the oil and burn Mu Zaien, Zhang Xiuxiu was also the key object of protection and was kicked out.
Mu Jiu was left with a smile and a smile on the long bamboo sticks made by Li Xiaotao to help Li Xiaotao wear the finished New Year's flowers.
Lin Shifu made dinner diligently, and it seemed that he was planning to mix rice at their house again.
Mu Jiu was speechless, after dinner, he used the excuse to send Lin Changsheng, and stopped Lin Fifteen quickly after going out, "Uncle Fifteen, borrow a step to speak." ”
Lin Shifu glanced at Lin Changsheng with fear, and spread his hands helplessly, "Jiu'er, if you have anything to say directly." ”
"You don't have to worry about him, he bullied you, come back and tell me."
After Mu Jiu finished speaking, she realized that she regarded herself as someone from Lin Changsheng, and she had a tone of Lao Tzu who wanted to discipline you well.
Lin Changsheng laughed out loud, "Jiu'er, don't worry, I will never dare to disobey your words." ”
Mu Jiu snorted, virtue!
"Uncle Fifteen, tell me honestly, are you ...... to my mother?"
Lin Fifteen's eyes widened out in fright, "Am I acting obviously?" I don't think I'm doing anything out of the ordinary! ”
"You mean you ......"
"No, no! Absolutely nothing! I swear to God, I'll wait for my wife to come back!" ”
But isn't it a widower? Can the wife come back?
Mu Jiu couldn't help but think of how many times he heard Lin Fifteen say that he was waiting for his wife, could it really come back? Is it that I want to be crooked?
But Mu Jiu had to guard against it, Li Xiaotao was not easy, and it was easy to seriously injure her with rumors.
Lin Fifteen observed left and right, and walked to the corner of the wall.
Mu Jiu and Lin Changsheng followed.
Lin Shifu said in a low voice, "Anyway, you know who he is, I don't want to tell you, there are no more than five people who know about this matter, I, the mayor of Wanbao Town, Song Zhongmin, Yang Aiguo, Song Zhongjun, now add one of you."
At that time, the old general was on the front line, I was a pawn in front of his tent, that day the old general had a bad premonition, so he asked me to evacuate with Changsheng overnight, and then later, the old general had an accident, in order to give him a legitimate identity, so he had to make this decision, in fact, I have someone I like, and she also likes me, but now I can't find her. ”
So that's the case, Mu Jiu was relieved, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood Uncle Fifteen, but Uncle Fifteen should not get too close to my mother in the future, so as not to cause trouble to my mother." ”
Lin fifteen pursed his lips and snorted childishly, "Got it!" Sure enough, it's a good intention, but it's not rewarded! ”
After finishing speaking, he found that Lin Changsheng looked at him wrongly, and ran away, "Jiu'er, let's talk about it again when we have a chance in the future, Changsheng still wets the bed when he is eight years old!" ”
Mu Jiu, "......"
Tell her what you're doing here!
But it's funny, and I want to hear more interesting stories about him when he was a child.
Lin Changsheng watched Lin Shifu's back leave, a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his lips, and then turned around, and when he faced Mu Jiu, his eyes softened again, "Jiu'er wants to hear it?" ”
Mu Jiu nodded unconsciously, it sounded good.
"I can tell you slowly, what is so good about what he said as an old man?"
Lin Changsheng's voice was extremely magnetic, low and hoarse, and his tone was soft, as if the spring breeze was blowing through the bamboo forest, which was easy to deceive people.
However, Mu Jiu smelled something different, old man? Lin Fifteen? This guy won't be eating Lin Fifteen's vinegar!
Is it possible!
Mu Jiu waved his hand, "Uncle Fifteen is definitely more interesting than you." ”
Who's going to blow themselves up!
Lin Fifteen's voice was unfathomable, "Yes." ”
"I'll go back first." Mu Jiu turned around and closed the door.
Lin Changsheng rushed home as fast as he could, but the house was empty, no need to look for it, and he could guess with his toes that Lin Shifu would definitely be in Lin Laosi's house tonight, in his shameless words, brother is in a bad mood, brother, you comfort and comfort me, and you can justifiably rely on it for a night.
……
The next day, the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Xiaotao got up early in the morning, made breakfast and began to clean.
Mu Jiu had never done these things before, so he naturally pressed Li Xiaotao down, "Mother, let the four of them do it, just sit down." ”
"Jiu'er, it's not that you don't know, my mother can't sit still, it's more energetic to find something to do, so let them rest for a few days."
"Okay then." Mu Jiu went to the backyard alone.
Six little goshawks flew to Mu Jiu's side, flapping their wings vigorously, fanning the surrounding snow particles in front of Mu Jiu.
What a blizzard!
"Don't be too enthusiastic, if you are more enthusiastic, I will freeze into a popsicle!"
The wolf rushed out thousands of miles, saw the sun and pounced, rode to the back of the sun, and made a gesture to bite.
Only then did the sun stop and throw the wolf out of the way.
Qianli was very flexible, rolled on the ground, stood firmly by Mu Jiu's side, and proudly despised the six goshawks with wolf eyes: In front of the master, Lao Tzu is the first!
Not to be outdone, the scorching sun fanned the wind hard, trying to fan the wolf thousands of miles away.
But Mu Jiu couldn't stand it, "Don't fan, if you fan your master again, I'll go to heaven." ”
As if they understood human words, the six goshawks folded their wings and walked towards Mu Jiu in an awkward posture.
Mu Jiu, "......"
You are goshawks! Goshawk! Not a penguin!
"Woo woo woo ......" the wolf roared at the six goshawks: Stupid is stupid, so ugly!
"Chirp chirp......" The six goshawks responded with their heads tilted.
One wolf and six eagles started an interracial conversation, and when she was excited, she also jumped all kinds of chickens and dogs, fortunately, the materials of the house she built and the quality of the handiwork of building the house were all passed, otherwise Mu Jiu was worried about how long the tiles of her house would last!
Taking advantage of the eagle wolf battle, Mu Jiu returned to her pharmacy and cleaned it up, and it was already noon when she went out.
Lin Changsheng is helping Li Xiaotao hang lanterns, those lanterns are Li Xiaotao went to the town to buy red paper and made it himself, although it is not as atmospheric as the store sells, but it has its own unique charm, with the Mu character written by Mu Jiu, the gate suddenly became taller, and there was an illusion that the courtyard was deep and deep.
Maybe because of last night's warning, Lin 15 didn't come.
Mu Houpu and the four maids, as well as Mu Hongli, cleaned up everything in minutes, and did everything before noon.
At Li Xiaotao's request, Mu Jiu and Mu Hongli sent Lin Langzhong, Mu Cha and a few other families who had helped them, and each family sent some New Year flowers and rice cakes.
Especially Mu Cha and Lin Langzhong, if it weren't for the help of these two at the beginning, they wouldn't have gotten better so quickly.
In the end, Mu Jiucai came to Aunt Jiu's house and sent New Year's flowers and rice cakes.
Aunt Jiu was not there, only Mu Yifan and Mu Luo were at home, very enthusiastically serving tea and pouring water, and inviting Mu Jiu to sit for a while.
I hadn't seen Mu Luo for a long time, she looked much more energetic than when she lived in their house before, and her voice was hearty, "Jiu'er! You're so kind! ”
Mu Jiu: "Thirty-four grandma, don't be polite, these are all made by my mother and my sister together, and they are not worth a few dollars." ”
Having said that, Mu Luo's heart is like a mirror: the Enmu Jiu they borrowed has already been paid off, and even, because of Mu Yihan's matter, they still owe Mu Jiu, and Mu Jiu can come to remember her on her behalf, they should be grateful, instead of really feeling that Mu Jiu owes them kindness.
So Mu Luo hurriedly ordered Mu Yifan, "Yifan, you go to your mother's room, I remember that she made some peanut candy yesterday." ”
Mu Yifan had already come out of Aunt Jiu's room, holding a large bag of peanut candy in his hand and putting it in Mu Hongli's hand, "Brother Manulife, the peanut candy made by my mother is delicious." ”
Mu Hongli said that my mother's cooking was more delicious, but my mother said that eating too much peanut candy would break my teeth, so I didn't do it, and took the peanut candy with a smile, "Thank you"
After sitting for a while, Mu Jiu got up and said goodbye.
When he returned home, the couplet had already been pasted, and seeing that the handwriting was vigorous and powerful, and the ink had not dried, Mu Jiu guessed that it was written by Lin Changsheng.
Unexpectedly, he also practiced good handwriting.
"Manulife, you will also practice good handwriting in the future." Finally, add, "It's easy to marry a daughter-in-law." ”
Mu Hongli nodded thoughtfully, "I know sister." ”
Originally, after making money, Mu Jiu wanted to resume the eldest lady's pie and wait for the maids to finish the trivial things at home, but seeing that Li Xiaotao and Mu Sanxi were very happy to do things in person, they were infected, and they also sorted out the things that had not been sorted out for a long time, and they felt very happy.
It's been a long time since I've felt such a strong family atmosphere.
