Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

Chapter 369 Lantern Festival, eating Lantern Festival

The horses they came with were stored at the home of a wealthy family in the town.

Mu Yi asked the guards to buy a small cart from the villagers in the small fishing village for selling fish in the town. Two thick mattresses were placed on the cart to ensure that people lying on it could reduce a lot of bumps.

Mu Yi wrapped the unconscious master on the bed in a quilt, carefully placed it on the cart, and then took the dozen brothers to push the master towards the town.

Mu Er was good at Qinggong and had already gone to the town to fetch the dozen horses and met them halfway along the road.

Mu Er originally suggested buying a carriage from that wealthy family, but Mu Yi rejected it.

The master is unconscious, every quarter of an hour is very dangerous, and riding in a carriage is too slow.

At this moment, Mu Yi first got on a tall horse, which was the master's good horse.

Then, Mu Er Mu San and other guards carried the unconscious master onto the horse, wrapped himself in a quilt and sat behind Mu Yi.

Mu Er tore up a mattress, wrapped the torn strips of cloth around his master and the quilt on Mu Yi's back.

Mu San also thoughtfully fixed his master's head on Mu Yi's back, so that when the horse ran, his master could cling tightly to Mu Yi's back.

When everything was done, everyone felt like returning home, and all galloped forward on their horses.

Qiao Ran, who was far away in Devil's Valley, had no idea that someone was hanging on by a thread and was desperately looking for her to save her life.

The Lantern Festival is coming soon, and the people of Dai Viet pay great attention to the Lantern Festival.

During the Lantern Festival, it is a traditional custom to enjoy the lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and eat Yuanxiao. Although they cannot watch the lanterns and guess lantern riddles, eating Yuanxiao is still essential.

At noon, just after lunch, the women in every household had prepared glutinous rice flour and fillings, preparing to make Yuanxiao and cook it in the afternoon.

Qiao Ran pretended to go to the city to buy the glutinous rice flour and fillings, but actually took them out from the space.

There is a bamboo basket on the Qiao family's table, a pot of glutinous rice flour beside it, and several plates with different fillings.

Qiao Ran was helping her mother make Yuanxiao. Mrs. Qiao put Xiaoba on the mat to play with, and asked Bei, Xing and Yue to look at their little brother. She also washed her hands and made Yuanxiao together.

Qiao Ran had never made Yuanxiao in her previous life. She thought that people ate glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival. Every Lantern Festival, she would go to the supermarket to buy a pack of glutinous rice balls and cook them. However, she did not expect that Yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls were different.

Tangyuan is made by "wrapping", while Yuanxiao is made by "rolling".

Tangyuan is made by kneading glutinous rice flour and water into a dough, then wrapping the fillings in it and kneading it smooth on the outside.

For Yuanxiao, the stuffing is first mixed and cut into small pieces, and then the small pieces of stuffing are rolled on a bamboo basket covered with glutinous rice flour. While rolling, the stuffing is sprinkled with water until the outside of the stuffing is covered with glutinous rice. Powder until rolled into a round ball.

Because Yuanxiao is rolled on dry glutinous rice flour, the surface is not as smooth as glutinous rice balls, but has a layer of floating powder, and the texture is thicker than glutinous rice balls.

Moreover, the fillings of Yuanxiao are relatively simple compared to glutinous rice balls. Generally, sweet fillings are used, such as lard bean paste, white sugar sesame, assorted osmanthus, date paste, hawthorn, etc.

There are five kinds of fillings prepared by the Qiao family, including peanuts, chestnuts, sesame seeds, bean paste, and jujube paste.

Basically, Qiao Ran took them out from her own space. She had a lot of these things in her space, and they could also be kept fresh and not go bad for a long time.

Qiao Ran likes to eat chestnut, date puree and bean paste fillings, so she specially makes these three kinds of fillings. When Mrs. Qiao and Chen Huiniang saw it, they just smiled indulgently and let her go.

Qiao Bei, who was playing with Xiao Ba on the side, caught a glimpse of his mother rolling Yuanxiao in the bamboo basket. The little round white balls were rolling around in the rice noodles, which seemed to be very fun.

He immediately ran over happily, shouting that he wanted to help his mother with the work.

Chen Huiniang patted his little black hand in a funny way: "Look how dirty your hands are? Don't get the rice noodles and yuanxiao all black! You are still young, wait until you grow up to help my mother." It’s not too late to get busy. Go and watch Xiaoba quickly and don’t let him eat randomly.”

Qiao Bei pouted, a little unhappy.

Seeing this, Qiao Ran stretched out her index finger to dip a little glutinous rice flour from the basket, and then quickly spread it on Qiao Bei's wrinkled little nose.

Qiao Xing and Qiao Yue saw it, pointed at Qiao Bei's face and laughed: "Hahaha! Fourth brother has become a cat with a painted face! A cat with a painted face!"

Qiao Bei was stunned and wiped his nose with his hand, which was stained with white powder.

He couldn't help but feel happy now, and quickly wiped the rice noodles on his sister's face.

However, with his speed, how could he touch Qiao Ran's face? She blocked Qiao Bei's little hand with a gentle movement of her hand.

As a result, Qiao Bei's hand bounced back, and the white rice flour on his hand was smeared all over his face.

At this time, the two little guys Xing and Yue were laughing so hard that even Chen Huiniang and Mrs. Qiao couldn't help laughing.

Qiao Ran couldn't help but smile when she looked at her younger brother's little face that looked like a young lady with a thick layer of powder on it.

Qiao Bei saw that instead of smearing his sister's face, he had smeared his own face. Amid everyone's laughter, he turned around in shame and smeared it on the faces of Xing and Yue, the brothers who were the first to laugh at him.

Suddenly, a colorful-faced cat turned into three colorful-faced cats, making Mrs. Qiao laugh non-stop.

Three little guys, you look at my face, I look at your face, they are all laughing very happily.

Xiao Ba didn't understand what everyone was laughing at. Anyway, when he saw everyone laughing, he grinned with his toothless mouth and giggled so hard that his dimples came out.

"Okay, okay! You little guys go and play, don't waste the food!"

Mrs. Qiao laughed so hard that tears came out. She wiped the tears from her eyes with the corner of her clothes, pulled a piece of cloth to clean the faces of the three little guys, and sent them away to play with Xiao Ba.

I thought they could only eat Yuanxiao during the Lantern Festival and not be able to watch lanterns and guess lantern riddles like people in the city.

Unexpectedly, Butler Zheng came not long after lunch.

He not only brought several bags of white rice and flour, but also several bags of glutinous rice. He even thoughtfully brought a brand new stone mill and a stone millstone.

"Old madam, have a happy holiday! I send greetings to your family on behalf of my master and young master. My wife said that when you first arrived here, you probably haven't bought a stone mill and a stone mill yet, so I went to the stonemason's shop and bought two for convenience. From now on you will grind rice and flour.”

As he spoke, he asked someone to bring out some colorful things from a carriage at the back. He pointed at the pile of things and said:

"These are lanterns. My little mistress reminded me to buy them, saying that she wanted her cousins ​​to have beautiful lanterns. I thought that since I wanted to buy them, I might as well buy more so that there would be lanterns everywhere in the village. , and now we have the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival, so I bought more than a hundred lanterns."
