Chapter 368 Double Ninth Festival Comes Again
Li Meier quickly went to coax Mrs. Li again, "Grandmother, you are naturally tough, but I picked a lot of fresh osmanthus flowers, and I thought I would come back quickly and make osmanthus cakes for you." As she spoke, she took out the fresh osmanthus flowers she picked. Sweet-scented osmanthus, send it to Mrs. Li for her to smell.

After smelling it, Mrs. Li nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, this sweet-scented osmanthus is pretty good. It's good to dry it to make sweet-scented osmanthus oil. The girl can still live a good life. I didn't come back empty-handed when I went back to the mountain."

"If it's not too late today, I'd like to pick some wild onions and garlic back home. Spreading egg pancakes with wild onions is the most delicious!" Li Meier said regretfully, if she hadn't met Zhao Yu's mess, she I must bring back some wild onions.

"I just said, what are you doing here in such a hurry, and the family is fine." Mrs. Li is also very regretful, she also likes this one, and the egg pancakes made by Li Meier are extraordinarily delicious.

In order to appease Mrs. Li, Li Meier spread out the scallion egg pancakes in the afternoon. Mrs. Li even brought Kang Geer who came back from school, and no one ate two full sheets. They didn't even eat dinner.

When Jiang Shi and Li Ang came back, they were just in time for dinner at home. Li Ang didn't eat well at the academy at noon, so he ate two big bowls of rice in the evening. Jiang Shi was also tired this day. There are not many, and today she ate a full bowl of rice. She saw that both her mother-in-law and her eldest son seemed to have no appetite, so she asked worriedly: "Is there something wrong with mother?"

"Mother, grandma is fine, but I ate too many egg pancakes in the afternoon, and I'm afraid I haven't digested them yet." Li Meier hurriedly explained to Mrs. Li.

When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she became even more worried. Storing up food for the elderly is no small matter, so she hurriedly said, "Do you want me to invite the doctor to come and have a look?"

Why does Mrs. Li allow her daughter-in-law to spend money to invite a doctor, and the old man waved her hand, "It's okay, you go, don't waste money, I can't die! Don't talk in my ear, buzz, buzz Humming, annoying panic."

Mrs. Jiang couldn't do it, so she stopped talking. After the meal, she took Li Meier back to the room, and told her, "You can't let your grandmother eat like this in the future. Brother Kang is fine, he is young. , Digestion is also fast, your grandmother is old, and it is easy to accumulate food if you eat too much."

Li Mei'er also felt a little regretful at the moment, she nodded and said, "I'll definitely stop it next time, I just asked Mother Lin to take the hawthorn Xiaoshi pills for my grandmother, let's see how it goes at night, if I feel better at night , it’s okay. If you still feel uncomfortable, please ask the doctor to come and see.” It’s really not a trivial matter to hold on.

"That's good too." Jiang said, "When you make food in the future, remember not to make too much, just try something new."

Li Meier responded repeatedly.

Fortunately, Mrs. Li had nothing to do at night. After walking around the yard twice, she went back to the house and went to sleep. She woke up the next morning and drank porridge as usual.Only then did Jiang Shi and Li Meier let go of their hanging hearts.

Li Ang lived in Li's house and waited for another two days. On the third day, he got up early and went outside Qingfeng Academy to read the rankings. Unsurprisingly, he passed the exam.Li Ang was very happy, and stayed at Li's house for another day, packed up his things and prepared to enter the academy.

This time without the company of the Li family, Li Xin finally found time to accompany his son to the academy.

After Li Ang entered the academy, the days soon came to Chongyang Festival, because the ceremony of Chongyang Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival were prepared together, so before Chongyang Festival, Mrs. Jiang was not too busy, just arranged to send out the gifts.

On the eve of the Double Ninth Festival, Bailu Academy was on holiday, and Li Yan and Jiang Shanqing came back. This time they were able to stay at home for three days, and everyone in the Li family was very happy.

Li Yan also brought back chrysanthemums and crabs. There were two big baskets full of fresh river crabs, and they were so huge that they looked very greedy.

Mrs. Li looked at the two big crabs, but she was a little worried, and muttered in her mouth, "These days I have been delivering crabs. Aunt Zhuang sent a basket. Yesterday, Axin also sent people. You gave away one basket, but you haven’t finished eating yet, and you brought back two baskets, and our family will eat it, so I’m afraid we won’t be able to eat it.”

"Send some to Mrs. Wei and the others. Mrs. Wei is a thrifty person. She must not be willing to buy crabs during the festival. She has a lot of family members, so she must like this bite." Jiang suggested with a smile, because The last time the Japanese pirates happened, the Li family became closer to the Weiss family, and now they are both in the state capital, so they will naturally think of the Weiss family when they have something to do.

Mrs. Li naturally had no objection, she nodded and said: "That's okay, this big crab is marinated and drunk, and it can be kept for half a month at most. Our family can't eat it. Ask someone to send them a big basket."

After finishing a basket, Mrs. Li said again, "Eat once at noon and once at night. This stuff is not easy to die. Let the meatballs be kept in the basket for a day or two, and they can be eaten tomorrow. You can eat the rest of the basket. Pickle some sauce, save some for Ayan and Shanqing to take to the academy to eat." Jiang agreed.

Li Meier reminded Mrs. Li, "Ask Nanny Zhou to feed the crabs with egg whites at night, otherwise they will lose weight."

Mrs. Li said in pain, "You don't mind, eggs are so expensive."

"Crabs are only eaten now, how many times can I eat them?" Li Meier likes to eat crabs, she can eat six big crabs in one meal, and this is when Jiang is trying to stop her from eating too much .

Li Meier smiled, "Grandmother doesn't like crabs, so I'll ask Mother Lin to buy a piece of pork belly and tear apart a few crabs. How about I make you a lion's head?"

Mrs. Li thought for a while, and then said with some disgust, "Are you doing well, if you don't do well, it will be fishy."

"Don't worry, I've eaten the lion's head with crab powder made by Baiweilou. It's guaranteed not to be fishy at all. It's delicious." Li Meier assured her.

"Let's do it, let's return crab powder and lion head, isn't it just big meatballs." Mrs. Li muttered, habitually picking faults.

Li Meier corrected with a smile, "The small ones are called meatballs, and the big ones are called lion heads."

Mrs. Li complained about Li Meier's fuss again, so she assigned Mrs. Jiang to deliver crabs, and Mother Lin to buy pork belly.

Since the festival is coming soon, Kang Geer doesn't need to study, and Jiang Shi asked Jiang Shanqing and Kang Geer to go together to send things.

Those who gave crabs also got some gifts in return. Although it was only bacon and chicken made by Webster himself, it was also a heartfelt gift.This is the case among neighbors and friends, and the intimacy is obvious only when there are frequent contacts.

In addition to steaming crabs at noon, I also cooked a table of good dishes.

Brother Kang is young, and he doesn't have the meticulousness to eat crabs. He only likes to eat crab roe and crab paste.Now that he has the lion's head, he feels that the lion's head is more fragrant and more suitable for his appetite, so he doesn't use crabs much.

Jiang Shanqing eats meticulously, and the crab shells and legs can be reassembled after picking.
