Gourmet pastoral: the clever mother raises the cute baby

Chapter 182 Walnut Glutinous Rice Balls
This Guanguan rice soup is white rice porridge cooked in a small clay pot. The rice porridge cooked slowly over a low fire is much tastier than the porridge in the big iron pot.

Aunt Ye went to the back kitchen and saw Qiaomei feeding the chicken with ingots, so she yelled at them, "Meizi, hurry up and take the child to eat, it's okay."

"Hey, I got it." When Qiaomei heard this, she poured out the leftover chicken food, and carried Yuanbao to the front yard.

Tian Xiaoyu was sitting on the kang, Gu Yunqing was taking off her shoes, Gu Yunqing was able to do this, Tian Xiaoyu was quite satisfied.

My husband, although he doesn't have the noble status of the prince's son, nor is he a handsome young man, but whenever he gives his heart to him, Tian Xiaoyu only has one thought, to grow old with this man.

After taking off her shoes, Tian Xiaoyu tucked into the bed. She pursed her lips and said aggrievedly, "I even wore new clothes for the New Year, and now I'm going to lie here again."

Seeing her acting like a child, Gu Yunqing felt warm and said with a smile, "You have nothing to do when you go out. I'll stay with you in the house. When the aunt and the others finish their work, I will definitely come to accompany you of."

Because Tian Xiaoyu often lays on the kang, so in order to prevent her from being bored, the whole family gathers in this room all day long, Yuan Bao writes and reads here, Gu Yunqing sits and does woodwork, Aunt Ye and Qiaomei are too. Sitting cross-legged on the kang embroidering flowers, chatting with Tian Xiaoyu casually.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Tian Xiaoyu talked about everything, and Aunt Ye agreed to let her make glutinous rice balls for everyone.

I heard from Mrs. Ye before that they make glutinous rice balls by kneading glutinous rice flour into balls, and pouring a spoonful of sugar into the pot will do.

Those sticky glutinous rice balls have no filling at all, they are so choking, Tian Xiaoyu naturally doesn't want to, the dried walnuts are prepared by himself, how can he not use them.

In autumn, Tian Xiaoyu also kept the leftover orange peels, as well as the honey bought in the town. The fillings for the glutinous rice balls made out of this make her mouth water.

Since she couldn't use a knife, she could only trouble Qiaomei to chop up the orange peel and walnuts. Qiaomei was so sleepy after chopping the orange peel, Tian Xiaoyu finally dragged Gu Yunqing over to work as a coolie.

This man's arms were strong, and the orange peel and walnuts were finely chopped, and Gu Yunqing was breathless.

When the material is ready, it’s time to knead the filling. Pour the orange peel and walnuts into the honey, slowly solidify, then knead them into balls of about the same size, and finally roll them in the glutinous rice flour. , you can use it.

The whole family is busy in the kitchen, even the ingots are no exception. Children like these floury things. Give him some glutinous rice flour. This silly boy is playing with it all over his face.

Seeing his funny look, Tian Xiaoyu became playful, and while Qiaomei and Gu Yunqing were concentrating on making glutinous rice balls, he dipped his fingers in some flour and wiped it on their faces.

Qiaomei was tricked by Tian Xiaoyu, so she took revenge on Gu Yunqing. The last meal was wrapped with glutinous rice balls. Yuan Bao was still funny, so he also laughed out loud.

This year has passed in the blink of an eye, seeing that the first month is coming to an end, Aunt Ye is also a little anxious.

Fidgeting all day, Tian Xiaoyu asked several times, but she didn't say anything, so Tian Xiaoyu couldn't ask more questions, so he could only let her go.

It was only a few days after the fifteenth, and an unexpected visitor came to the house.

When Tian Xiaoyu saw this well-mannered visitor, she also understood the anxiety in Aunt Ye's heart.

"Ma'am, I haven't seen you for many years. Your body is still so good." This man was wearing a vermilion gown, with black hair tied high, and a forehead embroidered with auspicious clouds and brocade beads of the same color was tied on his forehead. With a white jade finger ring, the movements of his hands and feet are unrestrained and unrestrained, his appearance is even more superior, his eyes are starry, and he is even more generous.

"Okay, ouch, I haven't seen you for so many years, your child is getting more and more handsome." Aunt Ye's eyes were full of satisfaction after looking at the person in front of her, and the more she looked at the person in front of her, the more she liked it.

With a smile on the corner of Liu Zhiwen's mouth, he waved his hands gracefully and said, "Where, auntie is so ridiculous. I was too busy a few days ago and I didn't have time. I just have time after the Chinese New Year, so I'll come here quickly." Let’s pay a visit, it’s not very formal to have the matchmaker come here before.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Ye was even more upset. She couldn't help comparing him with Liao Qing, and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so polite, my child. I really didn't expect that you You still have this kind of heart for our Meizi."

Tian Xiaoyu has been by the side all the time, in order to avoid suspicion, let Qiaomei go back to the house with Yuanbao, Gu Yunqing and Aunt Ye are sitting on the top seat, Gu Yunqing can't say whether he likes Liu Zhiwen or not, anyway, Gu Yunqing In Qing's eyes, there was not much difference between this person and Liao Qing.

However, Tian Xiaoyu has a pair of venomous eyes. She secretly looked at Liu Zhiwen. This man looked frank, knowledgeable, perfect and could not fault a single thing.

It was just like a door-to-door visit, they brought a cart full of gifts, but apart from the coachman, they did not bring any other servants with them, probably in order not to cause psychological pressure on Aunt Ye and feel that she is too high.

But the more caring he is, the more strange Tian Xiaoyu feels in his heart. There are many daughters who want to marry such a perfect man. Why did he choose Qiaomei, a "village girl" who doesn't care about the world? .

Qiaomei is not bad, it can be said that she is very good. In Tian Xiaoyu's eyes, such a woman is kind and generous, lively and cute, jealous of evil, daring to love and hate, but it is precisely because of her that she is not suitable for those in the backyard of the deep house. On the surface, he is dressed in gold and silver, and his wealth is boundless, but behind it, who knows.

Tian Xiaoyu's heart is very contradictory, she hopes Qiaomei to be happy, but Aunt Ye is more and more satisfied with this Liu Zhiwen, but there is no news about Liao Qing's rural examination, now, what should she do.

Liu Zhiwen didn't let go of the scrutiny of the three people present, but he wasn't worried, as long as Aunt Ye was satisfied, then the opinions of the remaining two people didn't seem to be very important.

"Zhiwen, what are you doing now?" Mrs. Ye more or less heard Huang Matchmaker talk about the situation of the Liu family, but she still asked curiously when she looked at the willow branch.

The smile on the corner of Liu Zhiwen's mouth did not dissipate. Hearing Aunt Ye's question now, the smile deepened, and he said, "I'm not talented, so I'll learn how to do business from my father."
