Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 256 Dowry (3)
"Miss Biao, you must come if you are free!"

"Ahem, Ernie, pack all the food for my cousin and take it away."

Qingli coughed twice in embarrassment, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that she had disturbed the scene of the sisters' affection. After she confessed, she quickly fled away.

My uncle brought a lot of goods, and was in a hurry to go back, so he couldn't stay at Qingli's house for dinner. My mother, Liu, was afraid that they would be hungry on the way, so she asked Grandma Cui to make some shredded pork rolls to eat when they were hungry on the way. It is also packed in a cotton bag to keep it warm.

"Cousin Qiang, Cousin Li, I'm going back! Come back later!"

Ginkgo sat on the ox cart going away, and kept waving to them, and Qingli also waved her little hand vigorously, saying goodbye to her uncle and the others.

"What is this, this is evil comes with evil!"

Qingli was about to go into her mother's room to talk about the tofu skin, but when she heard her mother's voice, she stopped her steps.

"Mom, what's the matter, why do you say such a thing? Did something happen?"

Mo Qingqiang didn't know why, but seeing her mother Liu's expression of resentment, she was very puzzled.

"Your uncle came just now and said that something happened in their village, just to insult your landlord's family, haha, the landlord and the landlord's son were castrated, and then hung naked on the tree. When they were found in the morning, they were already frozen. Half-dead, haha! Now the landlord’s house is in chaos, the landlord and his son’s concubine have all taken gold and silver artifacts and ran away! The helpers who didn’t sign the contract saw the chaos and took advantage of it, so they opened the grain depot and transported everyone away There is a lot of food, except for the slaves of the death contract, there is no one in the landlord's mansion! If there is no such job, the account will be wiped out in the future, and if you do too many evil things, there will naturally be retribution!"

Mrs. Liu glanced at Mo Qingqiang, and said earnestly, "Girl Qiang, mother knows that this matter is a shadow to you, but it's nothing, even in the village, there are some hooligans, who have to take advantage of words from time to time, you But don't get overwhelmed."

"Mom, that's over."

Mo Qingqiang was restless. Hearing this news, he felt relieved. He guessed that the person who could do this must be Ye Xun. Judging from the timing, it was just right. He must be reluctant to take revenge for being wronged.

Originally, Qingli wanted to go to the landlord's house to settle accounts, and the routine was similar to this person, so why was she preempted? At first, she thought that her elder brother was not there, but this time it was her turn to take the lead, but in the end, someone always took a few steps first, and she also guessed it was That man did it.

"Your father and I just hope you have a good life. We don't know the background of that person, and we can't easily agree to propose marriage, but if you want, everything can be discussed. We are not arbitrary parents, but you don't regret it. "

Mrs. Liu was talking to the second sister earnestly again, Qingli turned around and stopped listening carefully, and went back to her own room. After Gingko left, the house suddenly became quite deserted.

At noon, Erni excitedly came to look for Qingli, explaining that tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, which is the last important festival in the first month, and according to traditional customs, some Lantern Festivals will be held, symbolizing the prosperity of the day .

"Miss Si, Grandma Cui and I are going to make Yuanxiao. What do you think we should make stuffing? Now I only think of making white sugar, with some sesame seeds and crushed peanuts in it."

It’s just one flavor, no matter how you think about it, it’s a bit monotonous. Originally, everyone in the village made white sugar with fried crushed peanuts. If the conditions were good, they would add some sesame seeds. There are more flavors sold in the town. Erni’s In my hometown, people don’t eat Yuanxiao on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Instead, they eat similar rice balls made of glutinous rice. They are cooked with rice wine and added with rock sugar and goji berries. They are sweeter.

"Stuffing, I remember that there are red beans at home. After cooking and mashing, you can add some sugar to make a red bean paste filling."

Qingli thought about what kind of Yuanxiao she had eaten in her previous life, and after thinking about a few, she felt that she couldn't make it without that ingredient at home.

"Miss Si, I have a suggestion."

Erni thought for a while and said, "I remember that there are still a lot of candied fruit. We can make a candied fruit filling. Adding some chopped walnuts can also be very fragrant. There is also the red fruit cake I made earlier. I think it can be made with red fruit. The stuffing can also be delicious, sweet and sour."

"Erni, you are so smart, just do it!"

Qingli clapped her hands. In her previous life, there were quite a lot of stuffed fruits, which were quite expensive. In fact, she wanted rose stuffed the most, but this flower is rare in the village, so I didn't pick it in autumn, but there were a few similar thorns. Mei, at that time she should have used brown sugar to make some thorn rose sauce, and steamed buns would also be delicious, but the conditions in the house were too poor at that time, there was brown rice and rough noodles all day long, and there was no brown sugar.

Just do what you say, with these kinds of stuffing, even if it is complete, Erni quickly ran to the kitchen to do some work, Qingli took a look, it was to make the stuffing first, and then roll it back and forth on the glutinous rice flour, After a while it became a uniform ball.

"There are so many fillings. It just so happens that you can give some to your relatives when you make them."

Mother Liu and the second sister also went to the kitchen to have a look after talking, washed their hands with warm water, and helped to make the Lantern Festival. There were more people, and the division of labor and cooperation, Qingli was not idle, smashing red fruits in a small porcelain pot.

"Fourth sister, do we still have red fruit cake?"

The little disciple Xi ran to the kitchen with Dong Wa on his short legs, curiously watching the people busy.

"There is still a small piece, do you want to eat?"

Qingli took out a small porcelain bowl from the cabinet next to it, scooped up a little sugar with a spoon and sprinkled it evenly on it, then handed it to the younger brother, "You and Dongwa can eat this, you can't eat too much of this."

"Fourth sister, I like to eat this, but I won't eat too much."

Zixi's white and tender face was like a little bun, he raised his head, blinked his big black grape-like eyes, and solemnly promised Qingli.

What a cute baby, Qingli resisted the urge to ruin Baozi's face, and smashed the red fruit hard a few times, telling the younger brother and Dongwa to play in the yard and not go far away.

"It's this one, Mo Xiucai's is right, you all should act quickly, and be quicker when you collect the money!"

There was a shout from outside the door, Qingli sounded familiar, she poked her head out, and the matchmaker who came a few days ago came to the door again with a small handkerchief, and waved when she saw Qingli, "Mo Xiucai's little girl, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm pretty again, looking at the little flower jacket, taking advantage of her pretty face!"

"Ma'am, you're here again!"

Qingli has heard a lot of compliments recently, and she is somewhat immune to them. Her current direction is to develop towards beauty, and the word handsome can no longer meet her basic needs.

"Yeah, I came here this time to give a dowry gift. I'm overjoyed!"

The smile on the matchmaker's face was almost grinning behind her ears. This time she came to the door and got another 100 taels of silver. Her mission was considered complete, but she didn't know why the customer chose such a day to make an early reservation.
