When Mu Chen came back with the fish, he saw Shen Jingli and Qingsheng sitting in the yard, picking vegetables and chatting. Seeing Mu Chen come back, Shen Jingli clapped his hands, got up to meet him, took over the fish in Mu Chen's hand, and introduced him: "this is the third daughter-in-law of aunt Ming, named Qingsheng. On my birthday, this is my husband, Mu Chen. You can call him brother 14. "
Qingsheng looked up at Mu Chen, and was awed by Mu Chen's momentum. He wiped his hands on his apron, and quickly stood up and called out, "Hello, brother fourteen."
Mu Chen slightly jaw head, turn to ask a way: "three grandfather?"? Haven't you come back yet? "
as he walked into the main room, Shen Jingli turned around to give the fish to celebrate his birthday and spoke to him in a loud voice." the third grandfather was still at the patriarch's house, drinking tea with Uncle Lian and saying that he would come back by himself. "
" well. " Mu Chen nodded clearly, looked at his birthday celebration eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "Yi fan will come back tomorrow, and their Mu Zi will stay here for dinner tonight." The commanding tone can't be refused at all. As soon as the fish was put out for the birthday celebration, he was stunned. He wondered how mu Chen knew that he was not at home.
Mu Chen and Shen Jingli looked at each other for a moment, then turned back to the room. Xun'er, Huaixin and Mu Xi were playing Gobang. When they saw Mu Chen coming in, xun'er and Huaixin all ran to hold Mu Chen's leg, while Mu Xi stood up timidly, holding the hem of his coat in both hands and standing behind him.
"Sir, you are back." Accompanied by the side of the gold and jade and love quickly up to salute. Mu Chen asked them to go out to fetch water and make tea.
"Dad, how did you come back? Xun'er missed you. " Xun'er took Mu Chen's trouser legs and climbed up with his hands and feet. Mu Xi raised her eyes occasionally, and saw xun'er act like a bully on Mu Chen. She could not help but feel that xun'er was very powerful and dared to pester his father like this.
"Huaixin also wants uncle mu, and Huaixin also wants to..." Holding his head in faith and holding his hands high, he called to Mu Chen. Mu Chen's seriousness usually makes other children give up. However, he is not afraid of him and likes to be close to him. Mu Chen looked at the two children's eyes, bent down to pick them up. Xun'er's smiling eyes narrowed into a slit, moved his small buttocks, sat more steadily in Mu Chen's arms, and courteously pulled the clothes on Mu Chen's chest and rubbed Mu Chen's face with a small face.
"Dad, I know a new friend." When he finished his coquettish act, he immediately showed off his pride. If he had a tail, he would be more likely to go to heaven. He turned his head and said to Mu Xi, "brother Xi, come here quickly. This is my father. My father is a general..."
Mu Chen had already noticed the timid face of the child standing behind him. He seemed to be very afraid of strangers. He grabbed the hem of his clothes anxiously with his hands, clenched his lower lip, and his eyes floated around. Xun'er waited for a long time, but didn't see him coming. He climbed down from Mu Chen's arms, ran to him, took him by the hand, and pulled him over. He said happily to Mu Chen, "Dad, this is elder brother Xi, my new brother."
Huaixin was also very excited, and quickly interrupted: "brother Xi is a good man. He accompanies me to play Gobang with xun'er."
Mu Chen looked at the two children so happy, his eyes softened a little bit, and the corners of his mouth bent up. Mu Xi saw this, and felt that the uncle was not difficult to get along with, so he yelled, "good uncle."
Mu Chen nodded and put Huaixin down. He touched xun'er's cerebellum bag and said, "Dad wants to change clothes. You take Huaixin and brother Xi to play outside."
After listening to his father's discussion with him in this tone, xun'er consciously received attention. He straightened his chest, clapped his chest, and promised, "OK, I'll take this matter."
Xun'er was very happy. Holding a man in one hand, he went outside. Jin Yu came with a basin of warm water. Seeing this, he couldn't help laughing. The young master was really cute. When xun'er takes Huaixin and Mu Xi to the courtyard, Shen Jingli and Qingsheng have already picked the dishes in large pots and are eating snacks and chatting about their daily routines.
"Am..." Xun'er, salty, immediately left his little friend and ran to Shen Jingli. He climbed to Shen Jingli's knee and sat down. He said with a smile, "am, xun'er wants fish soup in the evening." He saw that there were fish in the basin. The fish he caught had cut the corner of his mouth and was still alive and kicking around in the water basin.
"If you're good, I'll make it for you." Shen Jingli looked at him and said.
Xun'er immediately said, "xun'er is very good. If you don't believe it, ask sister Jinyu." Jinyu, who was named, was a little confused. She didn't understand that she just wanted to take the wooden basin back to the kitchen. How could she be named in the middle? Although the young master called her sister, she was very happy, but the lady just said something, but she didn't hear a word.
"Sister Jinyu, do you think I'm very good?" Seeing that Jinyu didn't speak, xun'er asked again.
"Good, young master is the best." Jinyu immediately agreed and nodded.
Xun'er immediately turned his head and looked at Shen Jingli, smiling very proud, "am, sister Jinyu says I am very good."
Seeing his son winking at himself, Shen Jingli couldn't help laughing in his heart. He reached out and rubbed xun'er's small head and promised, "OK, I'll make you steamed eggs with fish soup in the evening."
Xun'er clapped his hands happily, and then came down from Shen Jingli's lap and ran to play with Huaixin and Mu Xi."Xun'er is really a good boy." Celebrating the birthday exclaimed.
That's what you haven't seen him look like. Shen Jingli answered in his heart and got up to wash the picked wild vegetables.
"I'll do it." Seeing Shen Jingli go to wash wild vegetables and celebrate his birthday, he follows with fear. However, he hears from his parents that this sister-in-law is a princess in the capital city, and his status is very noble. How can he be allowed to do such rough work? Shen Jingli took a look at the fish in the basin. There were three big bighead carp, two big bighead carp, and one small grass carp. Seeing the two bighead carp, Shen Jingli wanted to make sauerkraut fish in the evening, but there was no pickle at home.
"Gold and jade." Seeing Jinyu coming out of the kitchen, Shen Jingli called out to her, "go to Aunt Qing's house next door and buy some pickles."
"OK." After washing the handle, Jinyu went out to buy sauerkraut. Over there, the birthday party had already washed the wild vegetables. When they found that they didn't bring the cook, they took the initiative to say, "sister-in-law, I'll cook tonight."
Shen Jingli saw that he wanted to show himself, nodded, and then said, "I'll do it with you." After he went to the capital, he didn't do much cooking. Suddenly, he missed his craft. Well, he could make some snacks for the children.
I didn't expect Shen Jingli to say that, but on second thought, he realized that it was not good for Shen Jingli to ask his guests to help cook. In fact, he might not be able to cook at all. The two worked together to celebrate their birthday and cook dinner tonight, while Shen Jingli made snacks for the children. Shen Jingli saw that there were a lot of materials in the kitchen, so he decided to make a glutinous rice and bean paste roll. If there was enough time, he could make a cat's ear. First, mix the fixed amount of glutinous rice flour, rice flour and sugar, add cold water in several times, stir evenly, and form a batter. After that, steam it in a boiling pot. Take it out for about 40 minutes and cool it slightly. Then knead it repeatedly to make the dough taste more elastic. After that, spread out the dough, spread it on the top of bean paste, roll it up, cut it into small pieces, and then stick it with coconut milk.
However, Shen Jingli didn't have coconut milk on hand, so he didn't make it. After cutting it into pieces, he put it aside and began to make cat ears. There are two kinds of cat's ears. One is pasta, which is fried and poured with soup. The other is a snack, fried cat's ear. Shen Jingli was greedy for this when he was young, and the method was not too complicated.
First melt the brown sugar, filter out the larger particles inside, and then use sugar water and flour to make a brown sugar colored dough. Then make some other noodles and add a little salt to form a dough. The dough is white. Roll both dough into 3 mm thick pieces. Place the white one on the bottom and the red one on top for 15 minutes. Roll the two pieces into a thin roll. Finally, cut into thin slices with a knife, fry in the oil pan, and make a crisp red and white cat's ears.
"Am, is the fish soup ready?" As soon as Shen Jingli pulled out the cat's ears and put them on a plate to cool them in the shade, xun'er yelled in, sniffing with his little nose as he walked along.
"Am, what did you make delicious? It's delicious. " Children are greedy, smell delicious, salivate to leave the saliva. Mu Xi and Huaixin follow behind hand in hand. The two little twins, with a small age difference, have become good friends after an afternoon's running in. Seeing the smile on his son's face, he felt sad and happy, so he quickly brought out the steamed fish soup to them,
"the fish soup is just right in temperature, you can eat it quickly." When he heard that the fish soup was ready to eat, xun'er turned around and went to the main room to celebrate his birthday. Shen Jingli, who was funny and angry, said that he had raised a little white eyed wolf. After eating fish soup, several people ate small pieces of glutinous rice and red bean rolls, drank a small cup of milk, and when they were full, they put a bag of cat ears and went outside to play with other children.
"Don't run too far. We'll have dinner later." Shen Jingli told them.
"I see." Xun'er answered perfunctorily, pulling Mu Xi and Huaixin away.
Seeing his son playing with several children, he could not help but wipe his tears and said excitedly, "this child can finally play with other children. I'm really happy." Looking at him like this, Shen Jingli knew that he had broken his heart for the child. The dinner was all made for the celebration of his birthday, but Shen Jingli just played around.
The craft of birthday celebration is very good. After a meal, I was praised by several men in my family. I felt embarrassed about the celebration. After dinner, Shen Jingli packed up two pieces of cloth and a set of jewelry for her son to take back for her birthday celebration. However, she could not bear Shen Jingli's insistence and had to accept it. After the celebration left, everyone also returned to the room. Shen Jingli, sitting in front of the bronze mirror and combing his long five black hair, told Mu Chen about his birthday celebration.
"Yi fan, the third son of the patriarch, heard that he was born with dystocia, and his wife lost half of his life. The eldest's wife felt that the child was killing her, which was not good for Yi fan." "When Yi Fan reached the age of marriage, the clan leader's wife originally selected a lucky girl from his mother's village, but Yi Fan disagreed and married a couple of poor scholars, which was the birthday celebration."
"Although the clan leader's wife doesn't like Yi fan, it's not bad to treat their family. What's good is shared by several brothers. When they split up, they also pay part of the money to build houses.""Every family has its own difficulties. They will deal with the affairs of their families, so don't get involved." Shen Li always nods, as a human being, it's not good to be a human being.
Mu Chen blows out the candle and reaches out to hold Shen Jingli. Shen Jingli turns over and rolls into his arms. His husband hugs him and sleeps for a good night. :
