How many days did Qingfeng Li stay at home? How many times did Li Xuan go to Li Qingxiu's house after class, and even pretended to be tutoring for Qingfeng Li.

As for Qingfeng Li not having the energy to write, it doesn't matter. Mr. Li Xuan said that as long as he can read, it will be fine. In short, he can't fall too far behind other children.

Of course, Li Xuan also stayed for dinner. After eating at Li Qingxiu's house for a few days, Li Xuan had obviously gained weight, which made the Li Zheng family very happy.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Come on, pretty girl, open the door, it's me!"

Thinking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived because the sound Li Qingxiu heard outside the door was from Li Zheng.

Li Qingxiu walked to the courtyard door and opened it before she could say hello...

Li Zheng got straight to the point and said: "Young and handsome girl, the leeks have grown very long. Can they be harvested today?"

After hearing this, Li Qingxiu remembered that she had gone to see the leeks in the cellar yesterday and saw that the growth was indeed ready for harvest.

She invited Li Zheng into the house, poured a cup of hot water, and asked, "It's ready to harvest, but why does it have to be harvested today?"

Li Zheng took the hot water and took a sip to moisten his throat before explaining to Li Qingxiu that he was going to have a group greenhouse today, so he wanted to get some chives to try.

When Li Qingxiu heard about the house warming, she remembered that she didn't have a house warming house either. She had agreed to wait until everyone else's house was built before they could warm up the house together. This would not only save trouble but also make it more lively.

Li Zheng asked again: "Is this leek harvest the same as ordinary harvest?"

Li Qingxiu nodded: "It's the same, but after harvesting the leeks, you need to keep the roots. You can't uproot them and only the leaves are left."

An idea flashed in Li Zheng's head. He patted his thigh and said, "Hey, I understand. Is this just like leeks? Leeks can grow again and again in a short period of time just by cutting the leaves."

The more Li Zheng talked about it, the more he felt that chives looked very similar to leeks. The only difference between them was their different colors.

"Uncle Li Zheng is really smart." After speaking, Li Qingxiu added hot water to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng saw this and stopped him quickly. "Don't add any more. I don't have time to spare. Everyone is busy in the Pear Blossom Valley during the collective greenhouse banquet today. I will arrange for them to harvest all the leeks in the four cellars now."

When Li Qingxiu heard this, she expressed doubts that there were a lot of leeks in the four cellars. If they were harvested all, everyone would not be able to eat them all.

Li Zheng explained to Li Qingxiu that the reason why he wanted to harvest all the leeks in the four cellars was to take them to Xinzhou City to sell them tomorrow.

Although Xinzhou City is not peaceful, no matter how high the official is, he still needs to eat. Now that there are no fresh vegetables in the cold season, I might be able to get a good price by bringing the leeks to sell.

However, Li Qingxiu asked Li Zheng to harvest the leeks that would be enough for today. As for the leeks to be sold, they should be harvested before departure, so as not to avoid the leeks becoming stale and unable to be sold at a good price.

Li Zheng thought about it for a while and felt that what Li Qingxiu said made sense, so he decided to harvest enough to eat today.

After sending Li Zheng off, Li Qingxiu also started to get busy, because her family was also hosting a greenhouse banquet today, and she had to make essential pastries first.

Li Qingxiu took five kilograms of glutinous rice from the storage compartment and put it in the barrel, and then mentioned the place where Widow Jia cooked her usual meals. Because there was a straw shed built next to it, and the stone mill was placed there.

Today, everyone does not need to eat from a big pot, so there is no one in the hut where the people cook. Widow Jia is also busy in her new home.

Li Qingxiu came to the nearby straw shed and wiped the stone clean before starting to grind the glutinous rice. While grinding, she said that thanks to the blessing of Daliwan, the stone mill was effortless at all.

Li Qingxiu quickly finished grinding five kilograms of glutinous rice. She was afraid that the glutinous rice flour was not fine enough, so she grinded it again.

When she returned home with the ground glutinous rice flour, Li Qingfeng told her that Widow Jia was cutting leeks in her cellar.

When Li Qingxiu heard this, she hurriedly put the glutinous rice flour in the kitchen and then hurried down to the cellar where the chives were grown.

She was not afraid that Widow Jia would ask for too much, she was afraid that Widow Jia would dig out all the leek roots because of her good intentions.

Li Qingxiu went down to the cellar and found that there were only leeks that were growing well, but she didn't see Widow Jia. Then she left the cellar and went to another cellar where leeks were grown.

As soon as she got down from the cellar, she saw Widow Jia holding leeks in one hand and harvesting with a sickle in the other.

Seeing that Widow Jia did not dig out the leek roots, Li Qingxiu felt relieved.

When Widow Jia heard the noise, she looked back and saw Li Qingxiu coming. She was holding a freshly cut leek in one hand and saying hello excitedly.

Li Qingxiu walked over and saw that in such a cold weather, there was a thin layer of sweat on Widow Jia's head.

So, she advised: "Auntie, just cut enough to eat."

Widow Jia thought that Li Qingxiu thought she was greedy because she harvested too many leeks, so she hurriedly explained: "Nie Qingxiu, don't get me wrong, I don't want to eat so many leeks, but Li Zheng said that they will take these leeks to Xinzhou tomorrow. Sell.

I just wanted to say that since I have nothing else to do, I’ll help you harvest it. Don’t worry, according to my observation, the leeks won’t go bad if you cut them today and sell them tomorrow. "

Li Qingxiu laughed when she heard what Widow Jia said. "Auntie, if you're here, you cut the leeks for me and I didn't even have time to thank you. How could I blame you for cutting too much? I just saw that you were sweating profusely and wanted to give you a rest."

Widow Jia breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It's good that her pretty niece didn't blame her for cutting too many leeks. "We are farmers, so doing some farm work is like exercising. Besides, sweating a little is good for your health."

Hearing this, Li Qingxiu stopped trying to persuade her, "In that case, you can continue cutting, but if you are tired, take a rest. I will go up and make pastries to prepare for the greenhouse feast. By the way, don't you have your own greenhouse feast?"

"Why should I hold a house-warming banquet by myself? I'll stew a pheasant later, stir-fry leeks, and set off firecrackers for fun. There's no need to make it too lively. They won't come to my house anyway," said Widow Jia. There was still a flash of loneliness in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Li Qingxiu could naturally see it, but she didn't say anything because she didn't know what to say. There were some things that it was useless to rely on others to persuade. She had to digest and heal herself.

Li Qingxiu took a handful of leeks out of the cellar and went to the kitchen. She took out the two or three kilograms of chestnuts she had snatched from the squirrel hole from the storage compartment.

Wash the chestnuts and put them in a pot to cook. While the chestnuts were cooking, Li Qingxiu took out two more porcelain basins and poured appropriate amounts of glutinous rice flour, sugar and water into each to make a slightly thick paste.

Then he put a pot on another stove to boil water. After the water boiled, Li Qingxiu put one of the porcelain pots filled with glutinous rice paste into it, covered the pot and waited for it to be steamed.
