Mother Zhao has already put the cheese on the tea table and poured him a bowl of boiled red dates, longan and medlar tea. She stood by respectfully without saying a word. Since she was taught by Shen Jingli last time, although she still can't control herself and want to preach to Shen Jingli, most of the time, she just does things and doesn't speak, so she is afraid to annoy Shen Jingli again. She really sells them out. Her family are all in Beijing Shen Jingli came in and glanced at the crisp cheese and red dates, longan and medlar tea on the table. She raised her eyebrows and sat down, picked up the jujube tea and smelled it. Mammy Zhao was relieved, but she heard him say, "let Jinyu and Nianhua do this in the future."

It's not his own. He's not at ease.

Mother Zhao gasped half of her breath. She was stuck by this sentence. It was as if she was suddenly pinched by someone. She wanted to breathe in but couldn't breathe in. Her eyes showed an injured look, looked at Shen Jingli, and then knelt down, "madam, is it the maid who did something wrong? How can you treat your maids like this? "

She has been in the palace for more than ten years, and has always been conscientious in her work. No one who has been served by her does not praise her. After speaking, she first stayed in the princess mansion and then in the Rongguo mansion for several years. The ladies in these two governments also highly value her. If the crown prince and Princess hadn't appeared, she might not have come to this small mountain village, but she was treated like this She couldn't bear it.

Shen Jingli put down her tea cup and took a look at mother Zhao. She knelt on the ground with her hands clasped on both sides. Her face was filled with anger and unwillingness, but she could not help it. He closed his eyes. It was probably because he was suspicious. Since Yang Ningxin came here, he has been in a state of restlessness and began to be vigilant in an instant.

he did not forget Mu Chen's investigation. Not only did he investigate pirates and robbery, but also secretly investigated the southern barracks, to find out whether general Cheng had been in secret with the three princes, and the letters sent by Mu Chen earlier that their whereabouts might be known by the people in the Middle Kingdom, and that some people were on guard against them, so that he must take good care of himself. He could not help but feel uneasy about himself and his children, and became cautious about everything.

"Mammy, don't worry too much. Mammy was sent by the old lady to take care of me. Naturally, I can trust Laofu's eyes. However, it's not necessary to bother Mammy and tell Jinyu and Nianhua to do it." He did it to save each other.

This was very helpful to mother Zhao. She looked up and saw Shen Jingli drink the red date tea she had brought. Her face was finally much better, so she kowtowed to thank her.

"Well, you go down first. I have something to tell you about my birthday." Shen Jingli waved her hand and sent her away.

Qingsheng and mammy Zhao passed each other. They couldn't help looking back at her eyes and saying to Shen Jingli, "sister-in-law, you don't seem to like Miss Yang very much. The servants they brought from the capital?"

Is it his illusion? Take a closer look at Shen Jingli, who used to have a smile on his face. A gentle person like his sister-in-law will reject others? He frowned, some doubts, but he did feel Shen Jingli's vigilance and preparedness.

"Yes." Shen Jingli shallow laugh, "perhaps not familiar, so not used to it."

It seems quite reasonable. Qingsheng accepted this explanation, sat down happily, and began to discuss the Dragon Boat Festival with Shen Jingli. "Sister in law, how many zongzi do we have to make tomorrow?"

Qingsheng took out a package of sour plum from his arms, twisted it and put it into his mouth. Recently, he was very happy. Almost all the things he ate came out. His face was pale and pale. Only after eating sour plum, could the situation be better.

"Is there anything particular about it?" Shen Jingli has never been in charge of the Dragon Boat Festival. He has no idea what to do and what to pay attention to.

"That is, after the dumplings are made, they will send strings to each family, and there will be a portion to sacrifice to the Dragon God." "Send to other people's home, will receive a gift back, so, also can't do too much, otherwise oneself can't eat up."

Shen Jingli nodded clearly and said, "you are quite clear about this, so you are responsible for it."

After the words were spoken, he remembered the health condition of his birthday celebration. He looked up at him. Seeing that he was still a little pale, he could not help worrying, "can you bear it? If not, some rules, I will let Jinyu ask aunt Qing. "

"Not in the way." "There is no need for me to help you in the big house, but here, I just move my mouth, it's not troublesome."

Shen Jingli thought about it, and then looked at the excited appearance of his birthday, and then he laughed and discussed with him what kind of rice dumplings to make. At noon on the fourth day of May, after having lunch, everyone began to prepare to make zongzi. The Dragon Boat Festival in MUJIAZHUANG is to wrap zongzi in advance, steam it in the afternoon, and send it to all households. On the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, each family will carry a bunch of rice dumplings to worship at the Dragon God Temple. After that, they will touch the dragon boat in the lake in front of the Dragon Temple, and then go to the river outside the city to offer sacrifices to the river and Qu Zi. After the sacrifice, they begin to prepare for the Dragon Boat Race and other performances, Jinling City will be full of lights until morning.

Shen Jingli can't make zongzi, and he doesn't want to do it, so he asks him to move a rocking chair in the yard and watch them busy. Shen Yueer and Qingsheng had bags before, so they didn't need to be taught, so they made a special package. Yang Ningxin, Mu Xi, Jin Yu and Nian Hua all had no bags. They had to surround themselves with three cooks and let them teach them hand in hand and learn slowly."Well, xige'er's bag is very strong, and it's not easy to soften, but it's a little small. Miss Wu's bag is too loose. It's easy to loose, so I have to repack it." The cook picked up the zongzi made by Mu Xi and Yang Ningxin, compared them and said.

Yang Ningxin heard the speech, a round face suddenly blushed with shame and puffed up her cheeks unhappily. The rest of the people bowed their heads and snickered.

Yang ningtian lazily moved a rocking chair and sat side by side with Shen Jingli. Seeing the zongzi made by Yang Ningxin, he couldn't help laughing. "I said, little sister, if you don't have this ability, don't learn blindly. There are so many cooks in our family, and you don't need to make zongzi by yourself during the festival?"

Yang Ningxin was not happy. When she heard this, she turned back and said, "will you not allow me to marry a poor family in the future?"

This is pure anger, and is often stirring dumplings stuffing to listen to, the cheek suddenly burned up, feel that the sun is really sun today.

"Poo Hoo..." Yang ningtian spouted out his tea and burst into a laugh with his stomach in his arms. "Little sister, are you teasing me? Are you going to marry a poor family? Where are you going to meet the poor? Are you going to marry our servants

Kuang dang Often, he didn't control his strength well. The wooden spoon hit the edge of the copper basin heavily, making a loud noise. Everyone turned to see him one after another.

"Often. What's wrong with you? Isn't it too hot to get dizzy? " Next to Daji joked.

Because there were too many people in the kitchen, they set up a shed at the door of the kitchen, moved several tables, and wrapped zongzi under the shed. The shed was empty on all sides, and occasionally the sun shone in, which was quite dry. Chang Lai blushed, and did not know how to answer. She glanced at Yang Ningxin quietly. Seeing that she was still in a huff and puff before, she lowered her head and continued to stir the stuffing in the pot. When they saw him like this, they laughed again.

"OK, OK, make zongzi as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be too late for me." Jinyu said with a smile.

"Hum!" Yang Ningxin hummed, still not happy, Du mouth way: "I think my bag is very good, with you are also the same shape, what can't do?"

"It's similar in shape, but yours looks like a bundle that hasn't been tied up." Yang ningtian is deliberately against her, "cook, you take up her zongzi, let her see what the consequences are if the package is not tied well."

As soon as the cook picked up the rice dumplings wrapped by Yang Ningxin, the rice grains began to fall. Yang ningtian pretended to exclaim, "Oh, the rice dumplings are snowing."

When they heard the words, they burst into laughter. Yang Ningxin blushed and said to them that they bullied her. She turned to Yang ningtian and started to fight with him. "Brother smelly, you'll bully me. When I go home, I'll tell my second aunt to marry you to the south of the Yangtze River and see whether you're proud or not." She has a lot of grudges.

"Oh, my little wild cat is angry." Yang ningtian didn't like it and continued to laugh at her. People looked at their brother and sister two fight, all happy smile.

Mu Jin takes xun'er and Huaixin to play outside. When she comes back, she hears the laughter in the kitchen and comes back.

"What do you do? So lively? "

Yang Ningxin is holding a piece of rice dumpling leaves to Yang ningtian's mouth, heard Mu Jin's voice, quickly called him to come to support, "cousin Jin, hurry to help, six brother he bullied me."

Bullying you? Mu Jin picks up eyebrows and looks at Yang Ningxin, who is pressing on Yang ningtian's body. Is there anything wrong with his eyes? His cousin was holding down his cousin, and he even called out that he had been bullied. He wanted to laugh a little, but he was worried that the anger of his cousin would affect his smile, so he endured it all the time.

"Brother Xi, what are you doing?" Xun'er is fond of playing. Seeing that Mu Xi is making zongzi, he thinks it's very interesting, so he pushes forward and looks at the leaves and stuffing with bright eyes.

"Make zongzi. In the evening, xun'er will have zongzi." Mu Xi explained.

"I want to play, too." Xun'er immediately stretched out his hand, imitating Mu Xi's appearance, put the stuffing on the rice dumpling leaves, and then wrapped it up.

"Ha ha ha..." Yang Ningxin saw the zongzi made by xun'er and laughed, "you see, miao'er's dumplings are worse than mine."

"Xun'er is only three years old. Do you want to compare with a three-year-old?" Yang ningtian is ashamed and continues to fight Yang Ningxin.

Yang Ningxin glared at him, gritted his teeth and punched him in the abdomen. Seeing that his painful eyeballs almost popped out, he stretched out his waist freely. What a reason to say, how good it would be to solve the problem directly with fists. Yang ningtian hugs his stomach and stares at Yang Ningxin. This smelly girl actually takes a violent route.

"Come on, xun'er. My cousin will teach you how to make zongzi."

After feeling happy, Yang Ningxin joined the army of zongzi.

The hilarious afternoon passed quickly. At about four or five o'clock, they packed several large pots of rice dumplings. Three cooks and one cook put these pots of rice dumplings on the steamer, steaming and cooking dinner at the same time.

After dinner, Shen Jingli and his birthday celebration took several children, each family to send zongzi, harvest full of blessing.
