The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 491 New Year's Day (1)
Su Xiazhi, who was standing under the house, looked up at the children nervously, fearing that one of their feet would slip and fall...

After the extreme madness, there is the ultimate silence.

The light snow turned into heavy snow, and the New Year's Eve was replaced by the first day of the new year. The Min family ushered in the first New Year since they came to the imperial capital from Shanxia Village!
And this new year was spent with An Yi, Xiao Si and Yuan Bao...

After the children came down from the room, they all yawned and went back to their own room to sleep. Su Xiazhi was relieved after looking at the charcoal brazier in the girls' room.

After kissing each other on the cheeks, she went out of the house and went to the kitchen.She had to eat dumplings early in the morning on New Year's Day, so she had to hurry to prepare them.

"Shoucheng? Go to bed if you're sleepy." Before entering the door, he heard the sound of 'Dangdang' chopping stuffing from the kitchen. Su Xiazhi pushed the door open and saw that the servant was standing inside chopping cabbage stuffing .

"There are a lot of people, and there are a few food that can be eaten. My boss can pack it for half the night by himself." The servant smiled at her, and continued to be busy with the work in hand.

"Then I'll make the dough." Su Xiazhi rolled up her sleeves, took a large wooden basin, filled three scoops of flour, poured it in, and sprinkled a pinch of salt into the flour.

After adding water, it took a little effort to make a piece of dumpling noodles, which is exactly the standard: surface light, pot light, hand light!
"Nice job!" After covering the dough with a wet drawer cloth, Su Xiazhi boasted shamelessly.

Listening to her talking to herself, the servant lowered his head and pursed his lips into a smile.

"My lady, the red envelope is ready." Min Lansheng pushed the door open and entered, and was taken aback when he saw a servant standing in the room, but he stepped in and said, "Shoucheng is also here."

"Master Min!" Seeing him coming in, the servant hurriedly put down the kitchen knife to salute.

"Pull it down!" Su Xiazhi waved his hand: "Now we are all on our own, and you have to salute every time you see him, making everyone stiff."

After chopping a few cabbages, Su Xiazhi spread a piece of cloth in the basin, wrapped the chopped vegetable stuffing and squeezed out the water. After the water in the vegetables was squeezed out, put the cabbage stuffing and the pork that had been fed a long time ago. Stuffing mixed together.

"I said where did everyone go." The kitchen door opened, and An Yi walked in from the outside with a chill in his body, rubbing his hands and saying, "Damn it, it's colder than our mountain village here!"

"The imperial capital is located further north than the prefecture, but it's not colder than Shanxia Village." As soon as she mentioned Shanxia Village, Su Xiazhi couldn't help but think of the warm kang in her house, so she quickly changed the subject and said : "It's just right, I'll roll out the skin, and you guys make dumplings. We have a lot of hands, so we can wrap them quickly!"

"Make dumplings?" An Yi looked at the boy in a dilemma, and finally said: "If you don't think I'm making dumplings, I'll do it..."

As a result, after Anyi made a 'Yangba dumpling', Su Xiazhi slammed it aside in a disgusted tone: "Stop messing with things! What is this bag? If you cook it in a pot, it will be like a dead mouse." !"

"Hey!" An Yi patted the flour on his hands, and then took a piece of dough from the chopping board and kneaded it in his hands: "Don't dislike me, we'll go back after the third day..."

"However, don't think about us. Next year, my wife and son will come again. From now on, our two families will celebrate the festival together every year..."

"Leave on the third day?" Su Xiazhi stopped rolling the skin, looked up at the boy and asked, "What's the hurry? Isn't everything at home properly arranged? Why don't you stay until the fifteenth day!"

The servant wrapped the dumplings in his hand and said softly, "Our mountain village is too far away from the imperial capital. If the road goes smoothly, we will have to walk for more than 20 days."

After wrapping the dumpling in his hand, he stacked it on the racket, lined up neatly with the dumplings in front, then picked up another dumpling wrapper, picked out the filling with a ruler and placed it on the dumpling wrapper, with both hands With the thumbs in the middle, an ingot-shaped dumpling was made, which was exactly the way Su Xiazhi taught him to squeeze dumplings.

He also lined up this dumpling with the previous ones. Seeing that Su Xiazhi was still staring at him, the boy continued, "When we came, there were only me and Young Master, so we can go faster, but when we go back We need to bring Yuanbao. We can't rush on the road, we have to take our time."

"That's right." Su Xiazhi picked up a medicine and flattened it, then rolled out the dumpling skin: "If you walk slowly like this, any delay on the road will take five or six days."

"Based on this, it will be the beginning of February when we get home..."

"According to this calculation, it will take us more than two months to go back and forth. Now it is the slack time for farming, and there are not too many things at home, so we can rest when we go back." The boy continued Su Xiazhi's words.

"Then don't leave on the third day of junior high school, it's too urgent." Su Xiazhi's subordinates paused for a while and then started to work again: "Let's go on the fifth day of junior high school, eat the broken dumplings before leaving!"

With her final word, An Yi and the boy looked at each other, they both smiled and nodded together: "Listen to my boss!"

In this way, the date of their departure has been postponed for another two days. Although it is not a big deal, everyone in the room feels much more relaxed. After all, there are still five days before they leave, and they will not be separated so early. ...

"Damn it!" After the dumplings were made, there were five beats neatly arranged. An Yi was tall, and sent a beat that couldn't fit on the chopping board to the top of the cupboard, and then cursed: "Now the master has to serve you." They're gone!"

What An Yi said about them was the driver and martial artist who followed him to the imperial capital, of course, including Gao Yue and Xiao Wu.

"They serve you all year round, and you make dumplings for them all year round and still cry?" Su Xiazhi was talking, and sprinkled a handful of thin noodles on the chopping board.

"Besides, isn't it good for us to sit and talk in the kitchen? Who dares to come over if they have nothing to do?"

Thinking about it, An Yi himself was just making up the numbers in the room. He just made a dumpling and was disliked by everyone, so he stopped talking nonsense, washed his hands and pushed open the door to go out: "Tomorrow morning I have to let Little girls, give me New Year's greetings, or I won't give lucky money!"

"Cut!" Su Xiazhi pursed her lips, and said to An Yi's back: "It's like saying that if someone pays you New Year's greetings, it's like paying for the New Year's money. Is our girl short of your New Year's money..."

"Haha!" An Yi, who had already left the house, went into the house and dragged away the boy: "Let's go quickly, don't you see that the couple have something to say?"
