Chapter 947： Festival embarrassment

Chapter 947 is embarrassing

For a few days, I have to go to buy fresh ingredients every day for the freshness of the ingredients. Brother Hou said: "There is no need to buy pork, beef and mutton. I will process some of them every day here and use them."

The Martial Saint banquet is more important than the wedding banquet. The wedding banquet must give the guests a gift in return, usually snacks and candies. Xiaojiu thought, should we also give a gift in return for our flowing water banquet?

This matter is easy to handle, there is no need to buy it, Qixun said: "Tonight, my third sister and second brother, let's make some snacks and fructose for three nights, and we can make eight kinds of fructose into a box, which is better than buying from outside."

Brother Hou said: "Okay, let's do it after dinner."

Qixun thought about it for a while, and ordered eight gifts, four candies, and four desserts, but it was troublesome to pack them in boxes, and the quantity needed was huge, so there were none at the moment.

Brother Hou said: "Leave the box to me."

It's not a refining tool, it's just a box, as long as there is wood, he plucks a few hairs and blows it, it's a human hand.

Qixun thought it would be painful to pluck out the hairs: "Use a talisman, it will be no problem to deal with the wood."

Brother Hou thinks this is okay. Take pieces of wood and roughly process them, and these Furen can do it. Fine he himself.

But the bare wooden box is not beautiful, so just outline a few flowers on it with a few strokes, and make it festive.

The matter is settled like this, and the matter of painting on the wooden box will be left to the eldest cousin, Lingyu, and Xiaojiu. They are all scholars and are good at this.

As for Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba, these two boys haven't slept for two days and one night, so they can't stay up any longer.

After dinner, the brothers and sisters took Lingzhou and Xiaojiu back home, and the old house was not idle either. The women who helped in the village were all preparing the ingredients for the next day's running water feast.

And under Ling Xiaohua's pergola, there were children playing there, and the village was full of lively laughter for a while.

Among the younger ones, because of the kind invitation from Big Goudan, the little white tiger stayed at the old house to play with Big Goudan, while the others came back.

This time, Babai was assigned to work to help Lingzhou, Lingyu, and Xiaojiu paint.

Because they said hello in advance, when they returned home, the workshop happened to send a lot of air-dried wood, and it was Brother Lingfeng who personally delivered it. The clan brothers and sisters wentssip again, Ling Feng wanted to stay and help, but was rejected by the brothers and sisters, they sent Ling Feng away, and they went to Brother Hou's former workshop and started working.

Because he was busy returning gifts, he didn't go to the secret place of the valley this night. Otherwise, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba might not be able to sleep peacefully.

Four kinds of candy, Qixun decided on toffee, orange candy, peanut brittle and nougat. Except for toffee, the others are not troublesome to make.

Dim sum is one catty each of macaron, gorgon cake, cake and crème puff pastry.

There are Fu people to help in the two times, and the work is done quickly. After a busy night, it can be done for four or five days. The brothers and sisters sat down and recovered for a while, then went to the old house in good spirits.

Today I still have to reward customers, especially Brother Monkey, the boss, who has to be here.

The old house is already busy.

The patriarchs of the two surnames, as well as several elders of the clan, have also arrived, and they are sitting in the main hall talking at this time.

The brothers and sisters hurried over to greet them.

Brother Hou followed Lingzhou and Fusu to talk to the elders there, Qixun, Lingsu, and Lingyu were naturally going to help in the kitchen. rushed out.

"We have so many hands, how can we ask you little girls to do these rough jobs every family? It looks like each of them is more delicate than the other, just like the fairy girls in the painting. These jobs are not done by you. Let's play, sisters."

Little sisters The little sisters who were barely acquainted with each other in the past are all married, but now the unmarried little girls in their teens are not familiar with each other.

Nayan's Lingsu was a little bald, and Linglingyu was a little bald, and lived a new life. Except when he was in a daze, Qixun, who became a little socially obsessed at other times, was actually a little bald.

The topic that girls in their teens like, and the three sisters who have lived two lives, are a little bit unclear.

But at the moment, few little girls are free to play. The three sisters hurried to find the uncle and the third aunt, took out the return gift box that was made at night, and found a place to pile it up. Yes, it's at the other end of the arbor, one person walks, one is given.

Looking at the gift box, the aunt Guo was very surprised: "Don't tell me, I really forgot this before. How did you get such an exquisite gift box in just one night?"

The gift box is a round box with a diameter of about forty centimeters and a height of about ten centimeters. There are eight compartments inside, one compartment is the same, and there are four kinds of snacks and four kinds of candies. It looks delicate and beautiful.

Then Qixun picked up a plum-shaped pink macaron biscuit, and stuffed a piece for each of the aunt and the third aunt: "We made them by ourselves, aunt and third aunt, how about the taste? We can I have been busy all night. It is estimated that it will be enough for three to five days, and I will make more in two days."

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law tasted everything and nodded: "It's not worse than the ones in your fifth aunt's dim sum shop, and it's even better. Not to mention that these dim sum candies look beautiful, they just taste the same, and they are also good for giving away. What a great gift."

Actually, there is no return gift for banquet guests in the country, except for the wedding banquet. That is to say, those rich families in the city will be more particular, but they don't give such a good gift.

But their family can afford the money now.

The aunt said: "How much did it cost? I will make it up for you later."

Since it is said that the expenses are paid from the company, there is no reason for the children to get the money themselves. They don't lack this little money, it's something they don't lack.

Qixun smiled and said: "I didn't spend any money, except I got some wood from the hall uncle's house, but Brother Lingfeng said, it was a gift from the hall uncle, no money is required. The rest of the materials are all in our usual storage .”

The Hall Bo’s family has always been very close to his own family, so when I gave the Hall Bo a souvenir yesterday, the gift was relatively heavy. As for the business of the hall uncle's family, his own family also occupies a share. Since he said that the wood will not be charged, the brothers and sisters did not insist. The big deal is to send more game and nourishing medicinal materials to the hall uncle's house later. That's it.

Human relations, nothing more than that.

After hearing this, the uncle didn't say anything more.

Seeing that the three of them put away their things and stayed in the house, the aunt and the third aunt both laughed: "I'm afraid they don't know the girls in the village well? But your fourth and fifth aunts should be back soon, you five The little girl from my aunt's house is always smart, and she is getting along well with all the little girls in the village, from three to five years old, let her take you to play later."

Three sisters together, let the younger sister who is only seven or eight years old take me to play, is it plausible?

Lingyu pursed her lips in joy: "I just found out that we have a younger sister. Finally, someone can give away the jewelry we kept in the future."

Lingyu suddenly felt that there was a place for her to use. Except for the second brother, the eldest brother and the two sisters didn't like to dress up, so every time she came up with some beautiful clothes and jewelry styles, she couldn't find a common language at all. people to share the joy.

My younger sister is always different from others. When she dresses up, she is more enthusiastic.

"I don't know when the fourth and fifth aunts will arrive."

Yesterday, I asked someone from the village to go to the county to bring a message. It must be soon. The aunt said: "If you miss your aunt and aunt, go to the village to see."

The three sisters hurriedly said, "Let's go."

Arrived at the head of the village, before waiting for a long time, I saw a few carriages and rushed over.
