"My good granddaughter is back. It's cold. Come in quickly." The old lady took Ye Ziqing's hand and entered the house.
"It's so cold that grandpa and grandma just wait in the house and watch outside. They're not afraid of catching a cold." Ye Ziqing said with a mouth.
"Don't you want to see my good granddaughter earlier? You too. Why don't you come back early with your second brother?"
"It's too long to take care of my sister-in-law Chen when she's feeding her. I'm afraid she'll have to take care of her for a dozen years." Ye Ziqing said with a smile.
"Ziqing likes orchids?" It was said that she had raised more than a dozen orchids, and the old lady was immediately interested.
"I don't like them. My second brother and I dug them up from the mountains. They look good and they're raised at home. Does grandma like orchids? I'll bring you some next time?"
"No, grandma is not good at raising flowers. Don't raise the good orchids to death." The old lady waved her hand again and again. She was born in poverty and was not good at those romantic things.
"If you die, you die. Ziqing will go to the mountains to find it for you." Ye Ziqing said indifferently.
"My cousin is so generous. Your orchid shouldn't be an ordinary product. Are you willing to be abused by grandma?" Huang Haoning came in carrying a sack and said jokingly after hearing Ye Ziqing's words.
"What if they are not ordinary products? As long as they can make Grandma laugh, they will die well. Besides, they are all wild. It should not be so easy to die."
"What a filial child. Grandma won't want it. You can keep it." The old lady patted her hand, pointed to the sack carried by Huang Haoning and asked what it was.
"Nothing. I brought some winter bamboo shoots and vegetables. I hope Grandpa and grandma don't dislike it."
"I didn't expect to eat the specialties of my hometown during the new year. You have a heart." In fact, in their position, it's easy to want to eat something from their hometown. As long as they show a little talk, people send them to the door, but they never said that they didn't expect their granddaughter to bring them these things. A little girl's comprehensive consideration shows that she put them in her heart, which makes them extremely warm in her heart.
"The winter bamboo shoots were dug by my little sister from the mountains. She was going to kill some chickens, ducks and geese to bring them back. I said that the old man and the old lady had special offerings and it was difficult to bring them in the car. She gave up and sold most of the poultry at home." Yu Muchen likes Ye Ziqing.
"What a good boy. It's hard for you."
"There's nothing to take, just bring some worthless things back for everyone to taste fresh."
Everyone moved everything into the living room. Ye Ziqing divided the things into three parts. They were gifts for the three sworn brothers. At that time, Jiang Beizhan and Yu Muchen were asked to take them home. As for those for Lin Hong's family, Lin Hong didn't come, so Jiang Beizhan had to help take them back.
Jiang Beizhan was moved and distressed to see ye Ziqing's carefully prepared gifts for each family: it's really difficult for a teenage girl to keep dripping like this.
"Third brother, how are you doing? When will you go back after the new year?" Ye Ziqing felt the burning eyes of Jiangbei war, and her heart beat a lot faster.
"I'll go back with you and come back after the Lantern Festival." Jiang Beizhan said mildly that ye Ziqing would not stay in Kyoto for long, but he could not let her go back by herself.
"Then I'll thank the third brother first." Ye Ziqing didn't refuse either.
Everyone has his own business at the root of his life, especially Yu Muchen. He came to the Huang family before he came home. He must not stay long.
"Third brother, let's go and take our little sister out tomorrow." Seeing that Jiang Beizhan's eyes are stuck to Ye Ziqing, Yu Muchen has to remind: This is in the Huang family. If he doesn't want to endure the old man's crutch, he must restrain himself.
"Little sister, let's go." Jiangbeizhan understood Yu Muchen's meaning, but he didn't meet for so long and didn't even have a chance to speak alone. He was really unwilling.
"I'll see you off." Ye Ziqing was inexplicably funny when she saw the accusation of Jiangbei war.
"It's cold outside. Little sister doesn't have to go out."
"I'll take it to the gate." Ye Ziqing followed them out of the door.
"Ziqing, I miss you very much. Do you miss me?" Jiangbei war is one step behind, shoulder to shoulder with Ye Ziqing.
"I miss you too." Ye Ziqing looked at Yu Muchen in front of him and whispered that his face was red, but his lips were rippling with a smile.
"I'll take you out tomorrow." Jiang Beizhan saw her coquettish appearance and wanted to take a bite.
"I see. The road is slippery. Drive slowly."
"I'm leaving. Come in." Soon we arrived at the gate. Jiangbei war couldn't linger any longer. We had to take the gift brought by Ye Ziqing and follow Yu Muchen step by step.
Back in the house, ye Ziqing helped Huang Haohai pack up their things and move them to the storage room.
"Cousin, how about we make sugar fried chestnuts?" Huang Haoning looked at the sack of chestnuts and drooled.
"Do you have coarse sand at home? Let's fry some sugar chestnuts and peanuts." Ye Ziqing hasn't eaten sugar fried chestnuts for a long time. If conditions permit, it's better to fry some.
"I'll find the sand." Then, like a gust of wind, the man disappeared.
Huang Haohai looked at the direction of his cousin's departure, shook his head, grabbed some chestnuts with a sieve and came out to make an opening.
Huang Haoning quickly took a basin of coarse sand and said, "cousin, this is dried after washing. This iron pot is used by grandma to fry peanuts and melon seeds."
Ye Ziqing put the iron pot on the stove, poured an appropriate amount of sand, turned on the fire, and kept turning the sand with a shovel. When the sand is hot, put in the chestnut and stir fry it. When the chestnut is eight mature, add white sugar. When the white sugar and chestnut are integrated together, the chestnut is also ripe, and then you can get out of the pot.
"Yes, it's delicious. Unfortunately, there's no honey, otherwise the chestnuts will be more fragrant and sweet." When the chestnut is ripe, ye Ziqing tastes one, which is more delicious than the sugar fried chestnut in the previous life.
She used a sieve to separate the chestnut from the sand, put the chestnut into a fruit tray and asked Huang Haoning to take it out for the two old people. She put the sand into the pot and fried it again.
She fried several pots of chestnuts and new sand, and fried several pots of peanuts, enough for their family to eat for a few days.
Although it's the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, it's not a public holiday. Those who should go to work still have to go to work. Huang Meng and Huang Haojin didn't come back until the evening.
"Third uncle, third aunt, you've worked hard." Ye Ziqing took the slippers to them.
"Here comes Ziqing. This is your second cousin Huang Haojin, Haojin. This is your cousin Ziqing." Huang Meng introduced them to each other.
"Hello, second cousin." Ye Ziqing also took and gave him slippers.
