Chapter 62: Chinese New Year's Eve
Yun Rong, who kneaded the dough, looked at her in confusion and took out a long stick, frowning, and her round bun face was a little helpless.
"Although the dumpling skin you cut with the wind blade last time was not bad, it has no soul!"
"Dumpling wrappers have a soul? Eating may boost strength? ”
Yun Rong looked at Mo Lan with a serious face, the latter pursed his lips and thought for a long time, "It's not important, I'll teach you how to roll the skin." ”
Seeing that she was almost done, she then picked up the whisk and beat the egg whites that had just been separated, and soon they were foaming.
As the smoke floated up, Mo Lan poked his head out, "You all go home for dinner, and I'll make this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”
After finishing speaking, he closed the door with a bang, and one or two cooks didn't dare to leave, sitting in the courtyard and waiting for Mo Lan to give up.
It wasn't until she opened the door and brought out a large round pastry that the kitchen smelled of food, and the two cooks looked over and saw a girl busy.
The food that had already been prepared on the table looked quite tempting, "Could this be the master that the eldest lady invited back?" At a young age, he cooked a good dish. ”
"Let's go, let's go, let's go home and cook for me, we don't need it here."
Mo Lan put the cake in the dining room and looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, fortunately she had DIY the cake in the bakery.
As night fell, Yun Rong put a dish into a space bag and returned to the south of the city under the cover of the black fog.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was spent in Mo Ran's exclamation, and soon, fireworks were lit outside, the bell of the Guoan Temple rang, and the entire capital was lively.
Many children are running happily on the street with fireworks in their hands.
Mo Lan grabbed Mo Ran, who was running out, "You haven't taken the New Year's red envelope yet." ”
Mo Ran opened the red purse excitedly, and the shiny spirit crystal lined her face with snow-white.
"Brother Shen helped me get it, put it away quickly, take it and absorb the aura in it after the year, and when I come back from vacation, I will check if you have made progress."
Song Fuyue's New Year's gift is a scarf woven from the wool she fell from Bai Yu's body, which not only keeps warm, but also has a certain defensive effect.
Now Bai Yu's original form is four or five stories high, and when she fights, she always tramples on her vegetable garden, and a lot of hair falls off, which she collects.
Mo Hong's was wrapped in wolf fur and made a pair of knee pads, and Mo Lan also embroidered a little wolf cub on it.
At this moment, the king of Qi in the palace, listening to the report from his subordinates, went out of the palace directly and began to wander around the Mo family.
Tonight is a sleepless night, the night market will be open until dawn, and there will be plenty of entertainment.
Mo Ran stabbed into the pile of people one by one, and Mo Lan grabbed her hand tightly, for fear that she would lose it.
A masked man lunged at her, and Mo Lan dodged sideways, grabbed him by the collar and threw him to the ground, pulling away from position and throwing another roundhouse kick.
"Me! I! Stop it! ”
Mo Lan rubbed the broken hair in front of her forehead irritably, "Lou Guanjue, do you want to die?" ”
looked up, but Mo Ran was gone, "Damn! ”
Pulling up Lou Guanjue, "Help me find Mo Ran!" ”
Lou Guanjue was pushed by her and pouted, "The little fart may have set off fireworks, what's the hurry?" ”
A large purple firework burst into the sky, and everyone looked up, shocked by the oversized fireworks.
"Okay!"
Mo Lan squeezed in the direction from which the sound came, and saw Mo Ran propping up the railing with one hand, pointing to the fireworks in the sky with one hand.
Then he jumped up happily and shook the people around him and giggled.
She grabbed Lou Guanjue's ear, "Gong Ruize asked you to lure me away?" ”
Lou Guanjue quickly broke free from her clutches and rubbed his reddened ears, "You really do it, if it weren't for the New Year, I would have beaten you all over the ground to find your teeth!" ”
Mo Lan glanced at him, and he immediately shut up.
She didn't want to force Mo Ran too tightly as soon as she came up, just like a child in early love, the more she pressed, the more she didn't give up.
Looking at the bunch of guards beside Gong Ruize, Mo Lan turned around and left with peace of mind.
bumped into a person's chest, and Lou Guanjue slipped directly on the soles of his feet.
"The king... Son. ”
Gong Yi glanced at the corridor on the other side, and Gong Ruize was looking at the smirking girl with satisfaction at the moment.
"Miss Mo is so interested, she doesn't stay at home to watch the New Year, she goes out to watch the fireworks."
Gong Yi was not wearing a mask at the moment, and under the lights, no one noticed that there was such a handsome man standing in the crowd, and Mo Lan simply changed his words.
"Wang Gongzi is, I didn't expect to be happy with the people here."
The smile on Mo Lan's face froze, she always felt that after returning from Jizhou, this King of Qi was either indifferent and distant, or he was weird towards her.
During the Chinese New Year, he didn't stay in the palace to accompany the Queen Mother, but he came out to find her.
Could it be that as her father said, she made the royal family lose face?
Or, follow Gong Ruize out of the palace?
In any case, she tried to curry favor with King Qi, otherwise her next actions would be blocked, and her money-making plan would be stranded.
"Wang Gongzi is interested, go over there."
Gong Yi saw the direction she pointed, which was the south of the city, the most barren place in the capital.
He didn't speak, he raised his feet and walked straight in that direction.
Mo Lan took a deep breath and once again confirmed that Mo Ran was safe by Gong Ruize's side and kept up with Gong Yi's pace.
"Lord Wang, you see, the streets in the south of the city are really quiet, people like to go to prosperous and lively places, but the south of the city is getting more and more barren."
On the streets south of the city, occasionally a few shops are open, and three or two customers enter and leave after a while.
Compared to the crowds in other places, in addition to the sound of fireworks exploding, you can hear the footsteps of pedestrians here.
"Mo Lan has a way to develop the south of the city, but now you need a license to open a shop, Lord Wang..."
Gong Yi stopped, "I heard that you copied the "Huimin Rule" ten times last night, and today you are thinking about developing the south of the city, it seems that the effect is good, and the license will be in your hands tomorrow, but Miss Mo, don't forget, it's been four months, and your medicinal materials haven't been collected enough, do you take your promise to this king to heart?" ”
"Of course there is, but it will take some time to collect medicinal herbs, by the way, this is Gu Yuan Dan, the prince can take it with the Imperial Spirit Pill, and there will be no discomfort on the night of the full moon."
Gong Yi took the medicine bottle, and his tightly knit brows still did not stretch.
"The Wen family quest will start in a month, and the prize includes smoke cloud grass."
Mo Lan's eyes lit up, and the smoke cloud grass, a medicinal herb used to neutralize the dragon bone and the red tail, grew in the Chiyuan Polar Region.
And the Chiyuan Polar Region is the place where it breaks off with the main continent, there is no light all year round, the terrain is complicated, and there is a strong wind, and the volume of Bai Yu will be easily rolled up.
"Yes, Mo Lan will definitely try her best to obtain medicinal herbs."
Gong Yi glanced at her, "The Wen family's tasks are complicated, and there are many tasks in extremely dangerous places, and there are countless competitors, if you need it, this king can help." ”
