pastoral little wife

Chapter 668
Nie Mei bit her lip, wiped away her tears, and went to help in the kitchen.

Mrs. Zhang also hurriedly washed her hands and went to the kitchen to make dumplings.

A dumpling fell to the ground, Yun Duo groaned, and quickly picked it up, stained with dust.

"Young Mistress, let's take a break! There are so many people, you can make enough to eat in a while!" Mother Luo put the dumplings she picked up to one side.

"It's not tiring to make a dumpling." Yun Duo smiled and sat aside, looking at the three dumplings that had fallen to the ground, he suddenly became interested, picked it up and wanted to bake it in the stove.

When Mama Wan saw it, she hurriedly stopped her, "Young Mistress! You can't eat it roasted!"

"Why?" Yun Duo blinked.

"It's the Chinese New Year today, and the rules are out of order. The young mistress wants to eat baked dumplings, and after the fifth day, the servant will bake them for you." Mama Wan explained.

Yun Duo withdrew his hand resentfully, there is still this in the customs and rules of the Chinese New Year.

Mama Wan brought two bowls of walnut dew and handed them to Yun Duo with a smile, "Young mistress and young master go to the main room to drink some walnut dew, let's take a rest!"

The corner of Yun Duo's mouth twitched, he took the tray, and carried it into the house.

Seeing her pouting, Nie Zichuan followed her into the room with a smile and sat on the kang by the window, "What's the matter?"

"I want to eat burnt dumplings, but Wan's mother said that the rules are not good." Yun Duo couldn't help but her face was hot as she said.

Nie Zichuan laughed and scratched her nose, "After Po Wu, I'll burn it for you."

Yun Duo touched her chin, she was going to collect the customs and rules of various places.Many delicacies are born in response to customs.There are also some customs and festivals that restrict certain foods.

For the New Year's Eve dinner that night, almost all those who knew how to cook cooked their special dishes.

Yun Duo burned a beef sausage and made some crispy fish.

Everyone said it was delicious after eating, and the fish symbolizes the good meaning of having more than one year. A few crispy and crispy fish were eaten up as soon as they were brought to the table.

Mama Luo and Mama Wan sat at a table with their son and daughter-in-law.

The rest of the maids and servants sat at a table.

Yun Duo asked Nie Lingyu to sit with her, she said she would not do anything, she had to be polite, she and Nie Zichuan ate a table of dishes, and they were both full and full.

The lights in the yard were dim and extremely bright.After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone played cards.

Yun Duo sat on the sidelines and watched Mama Luo fight a few cards, and then made troubles, helping Mama Luo for a while, helping Nie Lingyu for a while, and telling Mama Luo's cards for Mama Wan.

The crowd laughed until very late.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people in the village flocked to pay New Year's greetings.

Baskets of melon seeds and peanut candies at home are scattered out.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of Qingyuan, it is the desertedness of the Nie family compound.

Nie Ergui also lived in the Nie family compound, and ate together to celebrate the New Year.Seeing that no one came to pay New Year's greetings, he pursed his lips and hummed, and went to Fan Ju's house to join in the fun.

Mrs. Zhang felt desolate, and the tall, spacious room was even more deserted because there was no furniture.If there are a few little children, the house will definitely be lively.

After eating, Nie Mei came out, stood in the background and stared at the group of people going to Qingyuan, and came out again laughing, praising the deliciousness of Qingyuan's melon seeds and peanut candies, and clenched her fists tightly.The desire for revenge has never been so strong at this moment.

Why did she end up in such a miserable end, but the people she hurt are living so well! ?
The sound of firecrackers rang out in bursts, and the Qingyuan was very lively. The colorful lights attracted the children of the village to gather in the yard to play.

Yun Duo watched a group of children chirping about which lamp looked good, and asked the little maid to bring them a basket of candy oranges.

The candies are all homemade, including sesame candies, peanut milk candies, milk candies and fruity candies, wrapped in glutinous rice paper and wrapped in a layer of colored paper.

The little children cheered when they saw so much candy, and those who were quick wanted to get more.

Nie Shen is now 11 years old. He is a young adult. Because he studied in the county school, he is intelligent and good at reading. Many boys in the school in the village follow him as an example. The worship of Nie Zichuan is as high as a mountain. For Nie Shen, they all regarded them as learning goals.

So when they saw him pick up the basket and told everyone not to grab it, they obediently stretched out their hands and waited for him to send it.

Most of the candies distributed before were made by the little maids in the kitchen. These are made by Mama Wan, which are more delicate and taste better.Because it is reserved for entertaining guests and giving gifts, there are not many things to do.

Nie Shen is the same, and each person has several hairs.

Yun Duo stretched out his hand to beckon him, and was about to say that someone came outside again, so he had to wave his hand again, and stepped forward to receive the visitor.

There was an endless stream of people coming from home to pay New Year's greetings, and they were busy until dawn, before Yun Duo had time to rest.

The villagers of Baishi Village get up very early during the New Year, and by dawn, they have basically finished their New Year greetings.

Nie Zichuan will soon go to Beijing to take the exam and participate in the big competition, and just became brother-in-law with the county magistrate Li Hang a few years ago.The family received a thick stack of posts, most of which were sent by the gentry and students in the town, inviting Nie Zichuan to drink New Year's wine.

Yun Duo pulled a big pillow under his head, lay down on the kang, reached out and grabbed a few postings from the kang table, flipped through it, and found that there were almost a lot of squires in the town, and threw them back casually, "so many families, one day It will take several days for both of them!" But he had to go, otherwise Nie Zichuan would be branded arrogant and rude.

Nie Zichuan came in with hot milk, and when he heard her worrying, he couldn't help smiling and said, "Just pick a few places and go. Get up and drink the milk, and go to bed quickly."

Yun Duo didn't want to move, she didn't go to bed until after the New Year's Eve in the early morning, and before she slept for two hours, she was picked up from the hot quilt, and has been tossing until now.

"Do you still want to eat dumplings? Mama Wan has reheated a lot of dumplings." Nie Zichuan put down the milk and sat beside her.

Yun Duo shook her head, she just wanted to sleep now.

"Then drink the milk and go to sleep!" Nie Zichuan hugged her up.

Yun Duo wrapped his arms around his neck, lazily in his arms, "I just sleep like this!"

Nie Zichuan's eyes were full of smiles, "Are you sure?" He hugged her and put her on the bed in the inner room.

Of course not.Yun Duo let go of her hands with a smile, took off her skirt and leather jacket, and lay down, "You sleep too!"

Nie Zichuan gave her milk to drink, slept with her for a while, got up and looked through those posts, picked some to write replies, and asked Wan Sen and Wan Miao to return the replies.

At noon, the smell of meat wafted from the kitchen, and Mama Wan cooked a pot of meat bones and a pot of lamb and scorpions.

The meat and bones were boiled for the servants at home, and a group of little maids and servants were waiting expectantly.Yun Duo hadn't woken up yet, and they could only start eating when they got the master's words.

Nie Mei came outside the door.

The guard at the door turned around, walked quickly and quietly stood outside the main room for a while, then came back and told Nie Mei, "Xiangzi is on the back hillside."
