The old lady also has a certain amount of Huo family blood, and she is very close to Huo Zhilan.

Among the nine gates of Changsha in the Republic of China, the women of the Huo family are in power, and they use marriage to form a big network.

The Chen family of Changsheng Mountain, which occupies most of Xiangxi, is not only one of the core families of the Xialing lineage of the tomb-robbing faction, but also the leader of the Green Forest Bandits in the Guannei, commanding hundreds of thousands of bandits (bandits). With a transcendent status, it is naturally the most important resource for the Huo family to win over people.

They are all big families that make money from side jobs, and the internal relationships are complicated.

Huo Zhilan saw Chen Jianjun picking up pieces of braised meat and smiled, "Old Hu likes braised meat, peanuts and white wine the most. This time we can enjoy it."

The old man reminded, "If you like it, Xiaofeng will braise more next time. But if someone comes to your house to pay New Year's greetings, don't let it slip, especially those bandits from northwest Shanxi."

Huo Zhilan smiled and nodded.

"Don't worry, old man, I will definitely not let them disturb your peace."

Because dumplings were being steamed, the old lady kept Huo Zhilan and the guards.

In just ten minutes, the dumplings were cooked and the rice cakes were out of the steamer.

The aroma of leeks filled the kitchen, but the smell of meat was not very strong.

Chen Feng took out fish roe sauce, bean paste, and pickled cabbage and placed them on the dining table as accompaniments for the dumplings.

In order to prevent Chen Hao and Chen Li from eating only the fish roe sauce, they were specifically instructed: "Eat with dip."

The old lady and Zhou Qing took out the steamed rice cakes to cool them down, and put a few bowls in the middle of the dining table. Noticing that the guards could not sit at the table, they specially sent him a plate.

"Little comrade, try the cakes. They are made of rice flour, sesame, peanuts and sugar. They are sweet."

"Ah, this is too expensive."

The guards did not dare to take it.

Huo Zhilan smiled and said: "Eat it. You have worked hard to protect me these days."

There are only twenty dumplings, but there are enough rice cakes.

Chen Feng steamed three baskets, enough for their family to eat more than ten meals.

The old man, the old lady, Chen Jianjun, Zhou Qing, and Chen Feng only ate one dumpling to taste the taste, and the others ate three or four.

"Auntie, it tastes better with sauce!"

Chen Hao scooped a spoonful of fish roe sauce with a spoon, and then mixed it with the dumplings to eat together.

The unique taste of fish roe paste, mixed with the dumpling skin, is just delicious.

He ate the dumpling skin first, then he mixed the meat filling with fish roe paste.

Chen Li and Hu Bayi followed suit.

Especially Chen Li, she was not eating dumplings, but fish roe paste.

Chen Feng pinched her little face, the little girl raised her head, smiled at her big brother, and her mouth was bulging.

A pair of short legs kept shaking under the table.

"Wait until you grow up, I will spank you."

Huo Zhilan looked at the fish roe paste with a little surprise, smiled and didn't say much, but thought about buying more bean paste for Hu Yunxuan, the food in the army canteen was not very delicious.

The guard ate a piece of sweet rice cake and felt the sweet taste floating on his tongue.

The sesame aroma mixed with the soft sweetness was more delicious than the candy Huo Xianzhi gave him before.

Huo Zhilan ate a piece of rice cake and nodded, saying, "This rice cake is delicious, a bit like what a master chef makes."

The old lady poured a glass of water for the children to prevent them from eating too dry.

"Take some back later and send some to the fairy's house."

Huo Zhilan nodded.

Seeing Hu Bayi eating the cake seriously and drinking a sip of water after eating, she felt a little guilty.

She was not a good mother and did not fulfill her mother's responsibilities.

"Bayi has troubled the old man these days."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Bayi is so well-behaved, what trouble can there be? He is doing well here with us, just in time to help Xiaohao study and learn, so that he doesn't just eat, drink and play every day."

Chen Hao lowered his head and dared not say a word.

In the past, most of the boys of the same age in the compound were poor students, so no one laughed at anyone.

Now that Hu Bayi is here, this comparison is very hurtful.

Playmates from several nearby courtyards began to roll up as the two of them took extra classes.

Jiang Hongjun's grades were worse than his, so he was severely beaten by his father and spent the past few days reviewing his lessons at home.

"Mom, I want some cakes."

After eating five dumplings, Chen Li felt that her stomach was still not full, and the little foodie set her eyes on the cakes on the table.

"You can only eat one more piece."

Zhou Qing gave her one piece.

She was afraid that Chen Li would eat too much and wet the bed in the middle of the night.

"Auntie Huo, do you know any pianists?

, painters and the like. I am idle at home anyway, so I want to learn more about art. "Chen Feng said very "motivated".

Huo Zhilan smiled and said: "It's not easy for you to learn piano and painting. Zhang Hai... Xiaohua is one of them."

"What, she can also play the piano?"

Chen Feng was really surprised.

When Zhang Haixing is serious, she is like a lady, but when she is not serious, she drives at a speed of more than 120. Let alone a ten-year veteran, even sixty years of experience may not be able to catch up.

"Yes, I studied with her for a while before." Huo Zhilan said very confidently: "A good piano is not easy to buy. Wait a few days, I will get you one, and I guarantee the sound quality is excellent."

Chen Feng hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Aunt Huo. ”

The piano is not very popular in China. It was a condiment for the upper class in the Republic of China. Good pianos were basically imported and expensive.

Nowadays, loudspeakers, suona and drums are popular in the countryside, while erhu, flute and xiao are popular in the city.

After retiring, the old man learned erhu for a while in the big yard.

Because the sound was too sad and irritable, under the strong opposition of the original body, Chen Jianguo, Chen Hao and others, he finally gave up becoming a great artist and turned to studying Chinese medicine.

After eating, the guards took braised meat, cakes, dumplings and hot pot base to the car, and Hu Bayi said goodbye to them.

"Goodbye, Brother Bayi!"

Chen Li shouted goodbye, but her eyes were on the cakes and braised meat bags in the back seat.

Huo Zhilan's jeep had no roof or doors, so the things in the car could be seen clearly under the street lights.

"Lili, do you want to pee? "

Chen Hao asked the little girl.

Chen Li nodded.

Chen Hao was responsible for squatting under the grape tree in the yard with his sister.

Several adults put away the rice cakes. When Chen Hao took Chen Li into the study bedroom, Chen Feng was soaking his feet.

"Big pot, I want one too."

Chen Li was ready to step into the basin with her shoes and feet without thinking.

"Take off your shoes!"

Chen Hao hurriedly stopped her. After washing her feet and pouring water, Chen Li climbed onto Chen Feng's kang and rolled over.

Chen Feng didn't know what was so fun about this game.

Near midnight, Chen Feng was awakened by the knocking on the roof.

"Is it hail?"

It was pitch black inside and outside the house, but his strong visual ability still clearly saw the snow falling outside the window that was opened for ventilation.

It's snowing heavily!
