Chapter 378 I got thinking and started fighting (3)
Seeing that she was in a daze, he explained: "We have already had lunch at home and there is no hot vegetable rice. You can take these buns back and heat them up before eating. This cotton coat is quite warm. You can put it on before leaving." Save me from freezing."
When Tang Xin heard this, he didn't realize that he was being treated as a beggar. She couldn't tell whether it was anger or humiliation. She wanted to throw the things in her hands back, but hugging the soft cotton clothes seemed to make her body warm, so she couldn't bear it!
Xiner didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing her lowering her head and not moving, she thought she was shy and embarrassed, so she smiled and pulled Li Yan in without saying anything.
Looking at the figure that disappeared after entering the courtyard gate, Tang Xin hugged the cotton-padded clothes tightly in her arms, and a certain kind of hot light burst out from her eyes...
It was the Laba Festival in a blink of an eye, and Mo Qingze came back the day before. Li Zhong also handed over the affairs of the rice shop to Tietou and Wang Fattou, and stayed at home to help.
There are two things to do in Laba. One is to entertain relatives and friends with a family recognition banquet, and the other is to cook Laba porridge to commemorate the Laba Festival. When the two things came together, it became a bit busy.
Fortunately, there are not many people at this banquet, and three or four tables are enough. Mo Yan and the others had prepared the ingredients and utensils in advance so that they would not get mixed up with the Laba Festival.
Laba porridge needs to be cooked a little longer, not only for eating at home, but also for giving to relatives and friends. Generally, those who have the conditions will also give more to poor people to accumulate virtue for themselves.
Mo Yan had previously planned to cook some more Laba porridge on this day and give it to the poor people wandering in the city, but it was just the same as the wedding banquet, so he didn't have the energy to do it anymore, so he had to let Wang Fattou and Tietou wait in the shop. Boil some in it and give it to those who come to receive rice at noon every day.
The main ingredients of Laba porridge are japonica rice, glutinous rice and barley. Usually, appropriate amounts of wild rice, water chestnuts, walnut kernels, pine nuts, red dates, etc. are also added. The Mo family prepared these things two days in advance and were busy making Laba porridge early that morning.
Laba porridge is not difficult to make. Mo Yan cooked it for two whole pots. The Laba porridge was served in large bowls and carried in baskets by Xin'er and the other little ones, and delivered one by one to the families of Yang Bao, Lin Yong, and Cai's sister-in-law, who were close friends.
Most of the two pots of porridge were given away, and the rest was eaten at home. Usually these porridges would not be finished on Laba day, and the remaining porridge means more than enough every year.
Almost as soon as she received the Laba porridge from the Mo family, Mo Wu brought the Laba porridge she had cooked and brought her eldest daughter Mo Danier over to help.
Seeing that the rest of the people didn't come, Mo Yan asked casually.
Perhaps because of previous experiences, the men of Lao Mo's family knew that they would not be popular even if they went, so they had no intention of making people uncomfortable again. Mo Niu was unwilling to give in and planned to bring her two sons over for a feast, but was stopped by Mo Yonglu with words.
Mo Hong was also reluctant to part with the good food from the Mo family. She had already pulled Mo Yongxi out of the door, but was severely scolded by Lao Motou, who warned her not to take even one step closer to the Mo family, otherwise she would interrupt the mother-daughter relationship. leg.
Mo Hong didn't have the courage to come without Old Mo. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't go to Mo's house to take advantage of this, so she asked Mo Wu to take Mo Yongxi and other grandchildren to Mo's house. Mo Wu didn't even think about it. , refused, and only brought Mo Danier, who was capable of doing things.
After Mo Yan heard this, she didn’t say anything. She just asked Xin’er to go to Lao Mo’s house to pick up Sannier and Shitou for dinner. It would be better if Lao Motou and others didn't come, otherwise there would be no trouble.
Not long after, those families who had received Mo’s Laba porridge came over one after another with their own Laba porridge. In addition, each person also holds two pairs of shoes or socks, one large and one small, which are gifts for the Yun Zhao brothers and sisters.
Even though these shoes and socks were old-fashioned in style and made of very ordinary coarse cotton, the Yun Zhao brothers and sisters were so moved that they happily thanked them.
The two little guys are polite and sensible, especially Yun Zhao's conversation, which is very different from ordinary children, and he looks smart. When they saw Zhen'er hugging his shoulders affectionately, as if they were brothers, everyone vaguely understood why Mo Qingze did this.
In front of everyone, Yun Zhao and his brother knelt down solemnly in front of Mo Qingze, kowtowed to him three times, and respectfully called him "adopted father".
Mo Qingze was so happy that he opened the two wooden boxes on the table, took out the longevity locks, and put them on the necks of the Yun Zhao brothers and sisters.
"Father, this is a purse made by Sheng'er. I hope my foster father won't dislike it."
Yun Sheng was a little embarrassed and took out the gift he had prepared, which was a moon-white purse with only a bamboo leaf embroidered on it.
She has not been in contact with female workers for long. She only worked on this simple purse for several days, and her fingers were pricked with a few needle holes. Although the style is simple, even rough, the heart is touching.
“Good, good, good, my adoptive father likes it very much. Sheng’er is such a filial and good boy!”
Mo Qingze happily took it and hung it on his waist. He picked up Yun Sheng and put it on his lap. His affection was beyond words.
Those with eyes would know that Mo Qingze really liked the brother and sister. Everyone came up to congratulate them and praised the brother and sister so much that the two of them blushed and felt very shy.
Yun Sheng leaned into his adoptive father's warm embrace with a look of admiration on his face, his eyes shining like stars in the night sky.
Looking at his sister's happy look, Yun Zhao tightened his hands on his back, and the gratitude in his heart swept over him like a tide, making him want to cry indulgently...
After the lively recognition banquet, Aunt Li Xiu and nephew Li Xiu cleaned up the mess on the table, while Mo Yanmao was in the kitchen, beating his aching waist and not wanting to move. Not many people came today, and there were only four tables. Each table had more than 20 dishes all cooked by her. The elbows holding the spatula were so sore that they had no strength.
At this time, Xin'er ran in in a panic, pulled Mo Yan and ran out: "Sister, Xiaohua Dabai and Red Python got into a fight in the back mountain. Red Python looked very angry and injured them both. Hurry up and stop them!"
As soon as Mo Yan heard this, all his fatigue was scared away!
"Why are they fighting? Also, isn't the red python hibernating? Why did it escape at this time?"
Xin'er shook her head quickly: "I don't know. Just now we vaguely heard the little flowers screaming, so we ran to see them, and we saw them fighting with the red python. They were all bleeding. They almost hit the yard. On the edge."
