American Ranch

Chapter 496

Because many neighbors will come over at night, if you want to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival alone, you will have no chance. Therefore, Qin Yi plans to celebrate in advance at noon, and now the people in the main house are all his own people, barely counted. reunited.

Mother Qin and Qin Yi are the chefs, Susa and Keluo are the assistants, Rachel and Sarah are the assistants, so many people are in the battle together, even though the kitchen is big enough, it is still packed.

The remaining three, Amanda, Christine and Emma, ​​also crowded around the kitchen door to watch, and praised Qin's mother's cooking skills from time to time, which made Qin's mother smile so much that she became more energetic in cooking !

This made Qin Yi sigh inwardly: the three girls who only know how to make sandwiches can be regarded as contributing to today's feast after all!

As for Angel, I wanted to show off my talent for barbecue, but the ingredients were not marinated in advance, so I had no choice but to let it go, otherwise the taste would be inferior, wouldn't it lower Angel's culinary skills!

So the little girl's task is to help the adults taste the various delicacies that are about to be cooked, whether they are salty or light, and the heat is not enough. These are naturally not a problem for Qin Yi and the others who are good at cooking. Naturally, it was to find something for the little girl to do.

After all, it was a sumptuous lunch for the whole family. If the little girl was missing, she would have to shed tears in grievance!

But I have to say that the job of tasting food really tickled the little girl's itch. For snack foodies, what could be happier than tasting all kinds of delicacies in advance!
As a result, as soon as the sumptuous meal of steaming, frying, and meat and vegetables was prepared, the little girl had already eaten a round belly. When the three of Amanda served the dishes, she sat on the kitchen counter and swayed her calves to burp. Not to mention how comfortable it is!
Since it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, moon cakes are naturally indispensable!
Some of them are also sold in the United States, but before, Augusta couldn’t find this kind of delicious pastry with unique meaning from China. The main reason is that there are too few local Chinese and there is no demand, so the supermarket will naturally not buy it.

But this year, because of Qin Yi's relationship, and recently, their family has been preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival with great fanfare, so many people also know about moon cakes, and out of curiosity, they have given advice to the supermarket, so today's Aogu You can also find mooncakes in Star Supermarket.

This is another change that Qin Yi brought to the small town supermarket after Huaxia ingredients and seasonings.

But not all the mooncakes in the ranch are bought from supermarkets.

In the kitchen of the main house, Mother Qin uses the large and small ovens with ease. This is her magic weapon for making pastries for her precious granddaughter!

In the past two days, Qin's mother baked some mooncakes with the oven and the rough molds carved by Qin Yi himself.

Although the mooncakes sold are not as pleasing to the eye and the fillings are not as rich, the strange and familiar feeling of hometown brought to Qin Yi's memory after eating in his mouth is incomparable to any exquisite and luxurious mooncakes. of!
A sumptuous Mid-Autumn Festival lunch, before the dinner, Qin Yi, as the head of the family, said some words of blessing, Ke Luo and other girls who have the custom of praying, also took the opportunity to pray, and then in the anticipation of everyone, Qin Yi announced the dinner !
During the dinner, it is indispensable to review the myths and stories of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but everyone’s main attention is still on the meals on the table, especially Christine and Emma, ​​who seldom eat authentic Chinese food, clumsily hold their chopsticks, constantly To launch a charge to the food, and never stop.
Abundant food, delicious cider, and a relaxed and happy atmosphere at the table. Everyone’s stomachs are a little full after a big meal. Christine and Emma even complained happily, saying that if this happens often, they must lose weight. Planning is on the agenda!
They are professional actors, and they have more requirements in these aspects than ordinary people, which is not surprising.

After a big meal, the mess on the table had to be left alone. Everyone went to the porch to enjoy the breeze, ate mooncakes and sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, drank some sweet-scented osmanthus wine specially brewed by Qin Yi, and lay on the deck chairs. He humming comfortably, very comfortable.

It's a pity that it's not night and there is no bright full moon, otherwise it would be more perfect.

Of course, Angel just sniffed the sweet-scented osmanthus wine curiously. She had the experience of boiling fruit wine before, so she was no longer interested in wine, so most of the time, she ate her ice cream mooncake and ate two big pieces in succession before she was satisfied!

Originally, she wanted to eat another piece, but when Susa stared at her, she could only retract her little hand in embarrassment, holding her juice and laughing. The cute little appearance made the adults laugh out loud.

The bustling lunch is memorable, but this warm and beautiful moment will always pass.

In the leisurely time, the time soon came to two o'clock in the afternoon, and the food in everyone's belly was almost gone, and the busyness still had to continue.

The women followed Qin's mother to prepare the ingredients for the evening. Angel ran around with a group of small animals, and the lawn in front of the house was filled with laughter.

"Hey! Sigh!"

Qin Yi was about to continue arranging the tables and chairs, when the eagles and eagles that had been flying all morning came back, An Qier immediately tiptoed and waved to them, greeting them happily.

The second eagle honked twice, gradually lowered the height, and then threw down four hares, which made the women who went out to meet them very happy, especially Sarah, who smiled like a flower: "Is it just for me? Haha, Knowing that I'm coming today, I specially caught a few hares. Ying Da Ying Er is so good!"

In fact, Sara was also joking, but she knew that Ying Da Ying Er often brought back pheasants and hares, and all the hares brought back this time were not specially for welcoming her, but such a statement was just for fun, and it should not be taken seriously. real.

Qin Yi set up the tables and chairs, and as soon as he moved out the beer and juice from the wine cellar, Walker came over with a happy Becky. The little girl hadn't come to the ranch to play recently. Everyone missed her very much, and Angel even ran away cheering. Going up, the two girls hugged and bounced together, chattering, the scene was very joyous!

Qin's mother was also very happy, and immediately brought out cakes to entertain little Becky. Angel dipped in the cakes and ate a lot of them.

The two girls got together, and the lawn became more lively. There were two little ones running around everywhere, which made the women in the room feel a little uneasy about their work. They always followed the girls and made them happy with words from time to time.

Fortunately, there were enough people, and the work of preparing ingredients was not left behind.

After drinking a large glass of beer with Walker, Qin Yi continued to work, and Walker also followed suit. The two got into the ox cart and planned to go to the vegetable garden to pick watermelons. After seeing it, Angel and Becky jumped up and down and wanted to go together !

Qin Yi was not surprised at all. The sweet big watermelon is one thing, and on the other hand, the two girls like making bullock carts very much. Some time ago, they even tried to drive the bullock cart to school.
But the ranch is still some distance away from Augusta, so the adults are naturally worried, so the two girls can only give up.

Now seeing the oxcart pulling watermelon, it is normal for them to come to hitchhike.

When they came to the vegetable garden, the two girls each took a cartoon balloon and led the animals to stroll carefully in the melon fields, helping to choose watermelons, and even picked a few with their own hands, but unfortunately they couldn't hold them, so they had to ask Qin Yi for help in the end.
But when I went back, it was even more interesting. The girls held the balloons, happily sat on the watermelon cart, and happily sang the self-made watermelon song. The simple happiness easily infected Qin Yi and Walker, and even went to In the end, the two also sang along with the children, even children!

Back at the main house, the watermelon was placed in the car, and friends were allowed to help themselves at night. Anyway, the people who came were all our own people, so we didn’t pay much attention.

Walker, on the other hand, didn't stay any longer after returning to the main house, leaving Becky here to play, and went back by himself first.

He is a key member of Qin Yi's side, and he has to help Ryan, Hobbs and others prepare for the tourism conference, and he has been very busy recently.

However, this cart of watermelons was still not safe, because Christine and Emma were also curious about the ox cart, and they even played with the two girls on the lawn in the ox cart.
