Parents are busy farming

After saying that, the two of them walked out of Ye Zifen's boudoir, and Zhao Cuier walked straight out of the door.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Zifen went to the kitchen to carefully check the curing condition of the bacon. After confirming that it was correct, he put all the ingredients needed to make the mutton soup into the pot one by one and simmered.

After the arrangements were made, she left Mrs. Feng to take care of the fire, and then started to build the racks specially used for baking food, and lit the charcoal.

During this period, Mrs. Feng walked out of the house and said to Aunt Qi: "Aunt Qi, you came over personally to help light the fire! Let me do it!"

Ye Zifen shook her head quickly and said with concern: "Go into the kitchen to warm up the fire! It's too cold outside. Wait until the fire rises before you come out. If you really want to help, um... ...I see you have some bean sprouts, which can be used to make a cold dish!"

Zi Zifen knew that she would feel unhappy if she was asked to sit in the kitchen, so he found a job for her that was easy and not cold.

Seeing how persistent Ye Zifen was, Mrs. Feng walked into the kitchen.

There was a pile of firewood under the stove and hot steam rising from the pot, so the room didn't feel cold at all.

It was just that when she was cold, she couldn't help but sneeze when she entered a hot place.

Fortunately, she knew that she just didn't get used to it all of a sudden, so she rubbed her nose and washed her hands with warm water.

She took out the bean sprouts, carefully picked off the hard bottom part, and then put them in boiling water to blanch them in preparation for making cold bean sprouts.

Aunt Qi stood aside to help, muttering: "I told you a long time ago that you don't have to go out to get cold. Don't you still know what kind of temperament the young lady has? She is the most considerate of others."

Mrs. Feng responded: "I just saw the young lady working so hard all by herself, and I felt really sorry for the young lady. I thought I could help her share some of the burden!"

Aunt Qi smiled mysteriously and lowered her voice and said, "Sister, just put your heart in your stomach. I can guarantee that someone will come to help you later."

As soon as the charcoal was lit on Zhi Zifen's side, the chefs came out of the yard one after another and stepped forward to help Zhi Zifen tie the mutton to the grill.

A chef said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I tasted this taste seriously, and I really miss it!"

At this moment, Shangguan Ying also walked out.

After hearing this, she responded with a smile: "I am still thinking about you in my heart! Today's meal was specially prepared by me. Does it count as taking advantage of me?"

Another chef echoed: "Isn't it true? It is indeed thanks to you, Master Shangguan, that we can enjoy such delicious food. In the final analysis, it is because we have some thin noodles at your place, Master Shangguan."

In fact, Shangguan Ying was about the same age as them. Although she was called aunt, it was only because of her seniority.

So they occasionally make harmless jokes.

Then, Shangguan Ying pretended to be angry and said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and go over to help! I guess the gang of little gangsters in the village will be here soon. Now you are all role models, in front of the children Pay more attention to your image.”

While talking, Ye Zifen quietly walked up to Shangguan Ying and asked in a low voice: "Look, I call you master, but I also call them master like them. Will this mess up the seniority? Logically speaking, It seems like they should call me "Junior Sister."

Shangguan Ying tapped Ye Zifen's forehead lightly and replied: "Didn't we discuss it with the little girl Hong Zhou a long time ago? From now on, everyone can call each other according to his own name."

After hearing this, Ye Zifen's heart was shocked, but there was no strange look on her face.

He responded calmly: "That was indeed agreed upon with my master in advance, and I didn't tell anyone else!"

Shangguan Ying raised the corner of her mouth slightly and teased: "Be careful, she will definitely settle the score with you when she comes back."

However, at this moment, Zi Zifen thought to herself deep down: "Actually, I sincerely hope that she will come back immediately. So what if she punishes me?"

Although she felt regretful, she did not show her feelings.

At this moment, Ziwei walked up to Zifen and asked: "Fifth sister, the charcoal fire is already burning, can we start baking?"

Ye Zifen turned his eyes to the mutton that had been placed on the grill, nodded slightly in agreement, and added: "Well, let's do it! I'll prepare some seasonings."

After all, simple marinating alone is not enough. Seasoning must be continuously applied during the roasting process to make the lamb more flavorful.

As the tempting aroma of roasted mutton spread, the naughty and cute children in the village came in droves like bees attracted by the aroma.

Shangguan Ying looked at Ye Zifen from a distance and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

She knew the child was in great pain, but she also understood her resilience and tenacity.

I silently prayed in my heart that Mu Hongzhou, that troublesome guy, would come back soon.

After Ye Zifen skillfully applied a layer of seasoning, he arranged for everyone to turn the meat rack here and wait.

She led a few people to move out several jars of fine wine.

In the past six months, since she has been away from home, and Mu Hongzhou, who likes to steal wine, is not at home, there is still plenty of wine left this year.

Since there’s no need to go out in the near future, let’s just let everyone have a drink!

When the unopened wine jars were placed on the ground, the people surrounding the barbecue became excited.

Finally, when the barbecue was cooked, Ye Zifen hurriedly took out the large wine bowl that had not been used for a long time from home.

After the wine was filled, Ye Zifen smiled and said to Shangguan Ying: "It is inconvenient for a few of us to drink, so we rely on you to lead everyone to drink and have fun!"

Shangguan Ying knew very well that they were still in the period of observing filial piety and it was not convenient for them to drink and have fun, so she nodded readily and agreed, saying that she would not force them to break the precepts.

The luckiest ones are Zhao Cuier and Zhou Dalin. They happened to be here today, so naturally they had to blend into the joyful atmosphere together.

However, because they had to rush back to Zhuangzi tomorrow morning, they could only taste it briefly and did not dare to drink too much.

In addition, the outside world is not very stable now, so they cannot be careless.

After all, the days in winter are short, and they need to leave early tomorrow morning. What if they drink too much and can't get up?

There are still parents at home, and they are worried.
