Chapter 771 Mid-Autumn Festival
Although it was almost dusk at that time, because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is a program of watching the moon and lanterns as usual in the city. The neighbors helped the old and the young on their way to the place to watch the lanterns, but as soon as everyone went out, they saw lively people. The reward delivery team all stopped to watch.

The leading eunuch who came with Feng Yu, the Empress, stood in front of the gate of the General's Mansion, and loudly relayed the Feng Yu of the Empress.

Yunxia's family received the rewards from the empress empress with big gifts, and Yunxia thanked the reward givers according to the rules, and the reward sending team went back.

The onlookers finally understood what was going on, and cheered immediately. Everyone praised Yunxia and felt honored.There were also quite a few people congratulating Yunxia Niang, even the children gathered in front of Yunxiao, saying envious words to each other.

Of course Yunxiao is proud of having such a talented sister. She straightened her back among the children, blushing with excitement, accepting everyone's admiration.

The gate to the courtyard next door was closed, and there was no movement.Only Old Zheng, the concierge, saw through the periscope that the whole family ran to the gate, leaning against the door with dark faces to listen to the commotion outside.Poor Yunzhong wanted to go out to see if he was not allowed, but was scolded severely by his mother, and ran to the backyard crying.

However, the actions over there will not affect this side in the slightest. After a while, Yunxia's family all smiled and went to the ancestral hall surrounded by Yunxia who was holding gifts.

Yun Xianiang said that she must tell her ancestors about such things as honoring her ancestors.

When they arrived at the ancestral hall, she took the lead and knelt down. Yunxia and Yunxiao knelt behind their mother, facing the tablets of the ancestors of the Li family, told about Yunxia's participation in the poetry competition and the reward from the empress, and kowtowed again , it is regarded as a respectful reminder to the ancestors to complete.

After fulfilling the mother's wish, the family left the ancestral hall and returned to the main hall in the courtyard of their residence.Mother picked up the four treasures of the study one by one to admire, and finally touched the piece of white jade lotus root and couldn't put it down.

It's not that she didn't want to let go of Haoyu when she saw Haoyu, it was because these rewards were obtained by Xia'er with her own ability, how could they not make her happy and cherish them?
"Xia'er, your father must be more excited when he finds out than being a mother." Yunxia's mother suddenly remembered that Xia'er's father didn't know about this, so she smiled and said that she would write to your father in a while, and let him get it earlier. good news.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous years, my mother would always look at things and think about others, and thinking of my father who was far away at the border, I would feel a little bit sad.But this year, my mother is in a state of excitement, without any melancholy at all.

Yun Xia smiled and said, "I also think Dad will be very happy. Although he doesn't say anything, he really hopes that Brother Xiao and I can have something to do."

Yun Xianiang nodded: "Yes, yes. Last time I wrote to your father about you going to participate in a poetry competition, your father wrote back saying that his Xia'er has grown up, and he is very happy as a father. I can't stop smiling from ear to ear, and I'm just waiting for your good news. But your father estimated that you had only entered the school not long ago, and you would be satisfied if you were ranked in the top ten. Now that you have won the first place, you can imagine your father What joy it will be!"

"Uncle might make an exception and get drunk!"

"Mingguang still understands him." Agreeing with Mingguang's guess, Yun Xianiang also made her think of a question, that is, every Mid-Autumn Festival, Xia'er's father sends a letter, why hasn't the letter arrived this year?

She immediately told Yunxia and Mingguang her question.

"Mother, maybe Daddy's letter is on the way, and it will arrive in a while." Yun Xia took her mother's words and said.

Yun Xianiang's expression was a little nervous: "Could it be that something happened to your father? Oh, it's a big holiday, I shouldn't say such unlucky words."

"Auntie, don't be in a hurry, uncle will be fine. No news now is good news." Ming Guang persuaded with a gentle demeanor and soft tone.

"That's right, mother, don't worry. Isn't dad busy with mass production campaigns, daily military training, and dealing with the provocations of the Xirong people? It's normal that he doesn't have time to write letters."

Probably also realized that she was overthinking, Yun Xianiang accepted the persuasion of the two children, and said with a smile: "Mingguang and Xia'er are right, I was worrying too much. Alright, let's hurry to have dinner, and we will enjoy it together later." moon."

What the three of them don't know at this moment is that Yunxia's father is not too busy to write letters, but he has learned important news and must report to the emperor immediately. The day is coming.

"Mother, I want to see the lanterns." Yun Xiao begged her mother with blinking eyes.

"I don't want to watch lanterns this year, but spend a lively Mid-Autumn Festival at home with my grandfather and second uncle." The mother told her son without any doubt.

Yun Xiao wanted to say something, but Ming Guang said something close to his ear, and the little guy stopped clamoring to see the lantern.

Yun Xianiang breathed a sigh of relief, she was worried about what to do if her son insisted on going to see the lanterns, but she didn't expect Mingguang to help her solve the problem easily.

The reason why she didn't go to see the lanterns was because her husband's secret letter from the previous visit said that the people of Xirong had behaved abnormally recently, so she had to pay special attention to Hang'er's safety.So Yun Xianiang decided not to take the children to see the lanterns, and tonight the family stayed in the courtyard, eating melons and fruits and snacks to watch the moon.

Not long after the restaurant reopened, Yunxia's grandfather and second uncle's family simply moved to live in the backyard of the restaurant because the business was so hot and they were extremely busy.Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, they will close early and rush back to Fuchu to celebrate the festival together.

Yunxia, ​​who was given a banquet in the palace, originally wanted to have a symbolic meal, but saw a new dish on the dinner table, named Jiupo Crab Raw.After one taste, I think the taste is quite good.I asked my mother who made this dish?How did you come up with the idea of ​​making this dish?
The mother smiled and explained to her clearly: It turns out that the crabs are plump and plump during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Yunxia’s three-dimensional fish farming in the farm has achieved very good results, and even the crabs have a good harvest. Sent some here.Dan Hua happened to have a unique skill in cooking raw crab with wine, so he volunteered to cook this dish.

Yunxia originally wanted to just taste it, because raw crabs splashed with wine were really delicious, so she ate more.In particular, the light wine aroma and fruit aroma are intertwined and mixed together, bringing double enjoyment of taste and smell.

So she got up and called Dan Hua to ask her how to do it.

When Danhua came, the young lady praised her, she was so happy that she quickly told the truth about what she had done.The cooking method of Jiupo raw crab is not complicated. As the name suggests, first marinate it with fermented rice and salt and chop it into pieces the size of your thumb. Let it stand for a few hours to get the name of Jiupo. Then add minced ginger and orange meat puree. The natural fruit flavor in the meat is made.

It is indeed a very novel and unique way of eating.
