After returning to the Shen family's small courtyard, they dispersed, and she didn't know if the others could fall asleep excitedly because of the strange opportunity of the day, anyway, Cheng Xi closed his eyes and soon went to meet with Zhou Zheng.

It turns out that shopping is more tiring than training, and both body and energy are a little unbearable.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Shen family began to be lively, and after breakfast, Qin Zheng came over with a warm gift, chattering about the family, and the two also learned a lot about the Qin Mansion.

"Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin have entered Beijing? When? ”

"I only arrived yesterday afternoon, thanks to the escort of the Hongwei Dart Bureau."

"Didn't your Qin family have their own guards, why did you invite someone from the dart game?"

"Now the name of the Hongwei Dart Bureau is resounding throughout Dayan, their kung fu is much better than my guards, and it is also thanks to my father and mother that they still have some names in Lin'an Mansion, I heard that others want to ask the people of the Dart Bureau to protect them and have to queue up, especially in these days of the New Year, it is even more difficult."

So exaggerated?

Cheng Xi was dumbfounded, and looked sideways at Shen Xingluo for confirmation, who nodded invisibly in confirmation.

I'm going~ Uncles are amazing!

"Hongwei Dart Bureau has also broken into a good reputation in the past year, in the past it was only well-known in Lin'an Mansion, and now the Dart Bureau not only escorts valuable darts but also opens a letter delivery business, and the speed is comparable to the official post station."

Shen Xingluo lowered his head and explained, "It's all Fuguang who is helping to take care of it." ”

I see.

"Add chicken drumsticks to him at noon."

Commendable!

"Okay."

Qin Zheng saw the stitches, "Do you have my share?" ”

"Then it depends on whether the gift you bring is heavy."

"It's heavy, it's heavy!"

A wooden box with exquisite packaging and red silk appeared in front of the two of them, and the Qin family's little servant opened it with great discernment under the master's instructions, and several transparent jade rough stones appeared in front of several people.

Cheng Xi: "."

That's really heavy.

The density of such a good water head is greater than that of marble, so it is strange that it can be lighter.

But how did he give this thing as a gift?

Cheng Xi remembered that the jade hairpin carved with complicated patterns on his head was a little enlightened, but he was a little unsure

Shen Xingluo's slender fingers had already picked up one of them, and he was very satisfied.

"Thank you, thank you."

"It's all the little things. This is collected near the capital, and the Qin family also has a caravan in the southern Xinjiang area, so I will send a few more pieces to Brother Shen when the time comes, so that you are satisfied. ”

Cheng Xi: "."

Okay, she got it.

Shen Xingluo was not polite, and accepted the gift casually.

"Since my uncle and aunt have returned to Beijing, we should go to visit, but I don't know if it's convenient?"

"It's convenient and convenient, and it will definitely be greeted by sweeping the couch."

Qin Zheng smiled brightly, "My father and mother are planning to return to the tenth day of the new year, and there are a few uncles in the other people in the house, and they are very empty these days." ”

A few people chatted for a few words, and Yu Heting, who also had no relatives in the capital, also came with a small radish head, carrying a few pastries in his hand.

It was a natural day to get together with friends.

The officials of the capital have a 16-day holiday during the New Year, and eight days each after the New Year, during which the saint will also seal the pen, which can be said to be the gospel of Dayan civil servants.

The three men gathered in the study and didn't know when they had talked about the affairs of the court from ordinary things, Yu Hefeng's little pot friend was dressed in red like a New Year's doll, and followed Cheng Xi like a small tail, from the living room to the kitchen, and from the kitchen to the living room.

"Sister, what are we going to eat today?"

"What do you want to eat? Just mention it, just let your sister Xingqi do it. ”

"Yay! I'm going to eat steamed shrimp with eggs, and that caramel or something. ”

"Both, both."

In view of the presence of outsiders, all the ingredients prepared by Shen Xingqi were available at this time in the Dayan Dynasty, meat was indispensable in winter, and the Shen family had no shortage of greenhouse vegetables, and the lunch was very rich.

Not only did Qin Zheng eat this meal, but even Yu Heting let out a faint sigh.

"Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen are really good craftsmen, and they are ashamed to say that they can't make such a taste even if they have a recipe in their hands."

Shen Xingqi nodded secretly in her heart, if she had been in the past, she would have thought that it was because of the different skills, but since she had been to the end of the world, she had guessed some facts.

The water at home is not the same as the water outside, and that should be the key.

There are still a lot of secrets between my brother and sister-in-law!

"My brother's cooking is delicious."

Yu Hefeng's little pot friend has a different opinion, "My brother is also amazing!" ”

"Since Xiaofeng said that it was delicious, Brother Yu's craftsmanship must be good."

Yu Heting smiled, stretched out his hand and stroked his brother's hairy hair with pity, and his heart was very ironing.

In the afternoon, several colleagues from Lin'an Mansion came to visit the Shen family, and Cheng Xi didn't care about it after making tea, and there were Su Zhan and Fuguang on the left and right, so he simply got down to business.

——Teach Shen Xingqi and Wangshu how to learn modern knowledge.

Take out the tablet, click on the early education class Chinese lesson that the system downloads, and put it in front of the two of them.

Soon there was a soft girl's voice like coaxing a baby in the video:

"Come and read with me, 1 is like a thin and long branch, 2 is like a duckling floating on water, 3 is like a little ear, 4 is like a small flag fluttering in the wind"

Shen Xingqi: "."

Wangshu: "."

Cheng Xi: "Hahahahaha∩∩ha

The two were speechless and silent for a long time, but finally broke that bit of shame and read along with the milky children's voice in the video.

Cheng Xi can't help it, if you want to learn modern knowledge, you can't let her teach everything, she doesn't have so much energy, right?

And professional things have to be done by professional people, the teacher in the video is serious, has experienced many actual combat tests, and his strength is leveraged.

What's more.

Some things have to be subtly influenced, such as modern thinking.

Learning from an early age is key!

***

This meal at noon on the second day of the junior high school seems to be some kind of signal, since Qin Zheng and the Yu brothers left, the Shen family has no other guests who need to entertain the meal, and Shen Xingqi, the chef, is about to lose his job.

The reason for this has to start with the big bags and small bags bought back from the Star Supermarket.

I tried a kind of fast food, everyone seems to have opened some kind of magical door, the main meal is not delicious, today's instant noodles tomorrow various flavors of self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot, all the food takes turns, I don't want to eat stir-fried vegetables for several days, even the snacks such as French fries and spicy chips and chicken feet are also widely acclaimed.

Cheng Xi persuaded many times to no avail, so he simply let them go.

Isn't it just a freshness, and after tasting it, the excitement will naturally fade.

However, she misestimated the influence of modern cuisine and was soon slapped in the face.

When Shen Xingluo took her to visit the elders of the Du Mansion, the Jiang Mansion and the Qin Mansion one after another, the family still didn't have a serious fire, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw a few people around the iron stove and fries.

Cheng Xi: "."

Speechless again.

Shen Xingluo saw that his wife was about to get angry, so he made a decisive idea.

"Xingqi has been learning very effectively in the past few days, do you think you want your father-in-law and them to follow along?"

“！”

So the shameful duo turned into a group in seconds, and the smile on Cheng Daqian's face disappeared visibly, and even the spicy strips couldn't be saved.

The New Year is spent day by day in learning modern knowledge, and occasionally Cheng Xi will take them to the end of the world when he is tired of learning, and by the way, he will bring back several large plastic bags of fast snacks to increase the inventory.

However, it is a pity that during this period, Zhuang Xuan never returned to the base, and followed Team Xu to go out on a mission at the base.

In the blink of an eye, it was the ninth day of the new year, and Shen Xingluo was about to take up his post, in order to match his time, the breakfast of the Shen family was adjusted to just dawn.

Cheng Daqian's letter was replied to, and the head of the dart thought that he just wanted to be closer to his daughter and son-in-law, but Fuguang's matter was a little troublesome, and there were still a lot of things waiting for him outside.

"In the future, you and Su Zhan will take turns to stay in the capital, and don't forget to train a few more assistants."

"Thank you, Childe."

Fuguang was happy, and there was a little more smile on his cold face.

Wang Shu knew that his brother would not leave Beijing in the short term, so he took over the guy who prepared the luggage for Su Zhan, and he was very attentive to pack the modern teaching video download, and stuffed a few more solar chargers into the space.

Su Zhan: "."

***

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival.

When Cheng Xi woke up in the morning, he felt a moment of sunlight shining on his face, warm, and his brain was foggy for a long time, and then he remembered that Shen Xingluo Xiumu didn't have to get up early.

This gave her a sense of working from 9 to 5 that she hadn't seen for a long time.

"Awake?"

"Well, what time is it?"

"8:20."

Shen Xingluo likes modern precision timekeeping methods, and in recent years, whenever he wants to know the time, he will check the Arabic numerals displayed by the system.

He put down the book in his hand and tucked the quilt for the people around him.

"Still sleepy?"

"Don't be sleepy, I promised Xingqi to accompany her to do the Lantern Festival today."

"It's still early, I can sleep a little longer."

"You think I'm a pig, huh?"

Cheng Xi just pouted, and as soon as the words fell, he felt that his hand reaching for the bedside table froze, as if it was stuck.

Puzzled, she looked at the cabinet with her pen, and a familiar wooden box came into view.

That's the box where the hosta was last placed.

"You, have prepared another gift?"

"Hmm."

"What is it?"

“.”

Shen Xingluo pursed his lips and did not answer.

Cheng Xi was aroused, lifted the quilt and reached out to scoop the wooden box into his arms, and opened the box with interest.

I saw a violet, chubby, fist-sized little pig placed inside, beautifully carved, cute and spiritual, and there was a piece of red jade under the limbs and belly as a pendulum cushion.

“.”

Pig?

Why pigs?

Shen Xingluo coughed lightly, "You are a pig." ”

Cheng Xi: It turned out to be a zodiac pig.

"I didn't have a gift for you this time."

Cheng Xi felt that he had lost again, "Otherwise, I'll carve one for you too. Zodiac dog? ”

A year older than her.

"No, you don't."

Shen Xingluo's dark eyes gradually deepened as he looked at her, "The return gift last time was good." ”

Yes?

What?

Before Cheng Xi could remember what the last return gift was, he felt a warm touch on his lips, and his waist was grabbed by a big hand and fell into the other party's arms, and he was deprived of air after a while.

This time the kiss was even more lingering and soft than the last time, Shen Xingluo seemed to have an extremely keen perception of everything, and his ability to draw inferences was simply embarrassing to everyone, and the other party quickly collapsed.

"Have you gone somewhere to study?"

Is this still an ancient, are you sure you haven't seen the disc?

After a long time, Cheng Xi stared at him weakly and asked for an explanation.

Shen Xingluo lowered his eyes and stared at her with a lustrous lip flap gradually deepened, the Adam's apple rolled twice, and finally he couldn't resist the restlessness and lowered his head to kiss again, and the eyes in his arms that exuded a trace of anger became lustrous again.

*

- I am the dividing line of the river crab -

All the ingredients for making the Lantern Festival have already been prepared in the kitchen.

Shen Xingqi frequently cast puzzled glances to the side while preparing the ingredients.

I haven't seen her all night, why are her sister-in-law's lips so red and swollen?

The spinach gnocchi soup and stir-fried vegetables I ate last night, the only stimulating food is the spicy cabbage pickled a year ago, and it is not so spicy!

In the morning, it is rice porridge with xiao long bao.

Strange, really strange.

"What do you think, are the black sesame seeds ground?"

"Oh, oh, alright, here it is!"

Shen Xingqi's deviant thoughts were pulled back, and he lowered his head and began to get busy.

Lantern Festival is a very representative traditional food, the method is not too difficult, nutritious and healthy, in this overhead Yan Dynasty is not fresh, but the taste is always worse.

The three of them began to make white glutinous rice flour, black sesame seeds, cooking oil, fine sugar, and crushed peanuts that were crushed into a fine powder.

There are two kinds of Lantern Festival stuffing today, black sesame stuffing and peanut stuffing.

In fact, Cheng Xi really wanted to try the durian-flavored Lantern Festival, the durian trees planted in the space before were in the ripe season, but the taste was a little rushing, and the people who loved to eat to the bone and avoided like snakes and scorpions were almost one-to-one, and finally dispelled this idea for the sake of the reputation of the neighbors.

Well, if you want to eat in the future, you can enter the space.

Secretly, open a small stove.

Lighting the stove, black sesame seeds and chopped peanuts are quickly crushed into a fine powder after being fried, and the lard is defilmed and minced with white sugar, and it can be made into a filling without putting so many seasonings.

Shen Xingqi took a large porcelain basin that was cleaned, took out an appropriate amount of glutinous rice flour and kneaded it with clear spring water to form a glutinous rice dough, and then divided it into glutinous rice dumplings of equal size, added an appropriate amount of filling, and wrapped them.

A Lantern Festival is completed in three or two clicks.

Strictly speaking, the three people of the Shen family are not wrapped in Lantern Festival, but soup balls, after all, most of the Lantern Festival is rolled out, and there is no need to make glutinous rice into glutinous rice balls at all.

However, several people felt that the rolled out Lantern Festival was not as firm as the rice balls, and the taste was not the same, so they unanimously adopted this method.

The three of them are all good hands in the kitchen, and it will not take long for a large pot of rice balls to be ready, the black sesame filling is placed on the left, and the peanut filling is placed on the right, and you only need to boil the water and put the Lantern Festival in it and cook it for a while.

Of course, you can't just eat Lantern Festival at noon, and the three of them also made a few refreshing side dishes.

"Bring some to Su Zhan too, is he going to leave after sixteen?"

"Yes."

Wangshu prepared a set of things for him yesterday, stuffed them all into the space button, and almost sent the person away.
