That night, everyone in Changhui Yard ate dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse.

On this day, the first pot of dumplings should be offered to the ancestral hall according to the rules.

When the dumplings are cooked, put the first two bowls out of the pan into the food box.Zhou Xining accompanied the old lady to the ancestral hall. After offering incense, Zhou Xining was about to go up to help the old lady, but was stopped by Nanny Bai silently.Then I heard the old lady standing in front of the incense table, and Xu Xu said: "This is a dumpling made by my granddaughter-in-law, and the stuffing is made of shepherd's purse grown in our own house. Don't protect yourself, you old thing, and share it with others." Give two to my son and daughter-in-law, let them have a taste."

Then he said: "Huaiyuan led the troops out of Beijing, Artest, you have to take care of him carefully, don't let anyone bump into him. The granddaughter-in-law is still at home waiting for him to come back, if you don't take good care of him He, next time I make dumplings, I won't give them to you.

Ah Wan, your eyes are still good, the best girl in Hejing was picked into our He family early by you.As the old saying goes, three years old is old, this is not true at all.

Also, He Yuan from the second room is back, dragging a lot of people with him. He hasn't grown the bones of He's family since he was a child.This person who has been away for 15 years suddenly came back, I always see him coming back at the wrong time, and the right time..."

Listening to the old lady's ramblings, Zhou Xining couldn't help but sore his nose.

Looking at Nanny Bai's actions just now, it should be that the old lady will come here when she misses them and talk to them like this.The old lady was really not easy. She gave away her husband in middle age and her son in her later years.This is the old lady, who would be unbearable if it were anyone else.

Fortunately, there was He Beiting who kept her in mind, otherwise...

Seeing that the old lady stopped talking and turned around slowly, Zhou Xining sniffed, stepped forward quickly, and half-armed and half-armed the old lady to go out.

The old lady put her hand on the back of Zhou Xining's hand, patted it lightly and said, "When you are old, you will be nagged, and you can't stop it once you open your mouth. Let's go faster, the dumplings will taste bad when they are cold."

Zhou Xining slightly bent the corners of his lips and said, "Don't worry, grandma. Before going out, Nanny Bai ordered someone to put the tureen on. Let's go back now. The temperature should be just right."

Well, what a nice boy.

Nanny Bai who was following saw that the old lady was smiling, and her eyes were full of smiles, the kind of smiles that made her feel physically and mentally comfortable.For many years, every time the old lady came out of the ancestral hall, she always had a gloomy expression on her face.

There, besides the ancestors of the He family, the old lady's husband who died young, and the son who died young, it hurts every time I come here these years, how can I still be happy.

But today, the old lady didn't force her smile, she was really happy.

It is because of the young lady that I feel relieved.

That's right, the old lady is right, the young lady is the best girl in this capital.The madam's eyes are sharp, and the young madam was just a baby back then, so she caught her eye at a glance.

After the group returned to Changhui Courtyard, the house began to get busy.The one who serves the dumplings, the one who serves the dishes, and the one who adjusts the dipping sauces are busy but not chaotic.

Even though there is only one old lady left in the back house of the He family, the rules of this servant are not abolished at all.

"Quick, eat it while it's hot, the shepherd's purse dumplings are fresh..."

As soon as the dumplings were on the table, the old lady greeted Zhou Shining with a smile.

At first she thought that the old lady was exaggerating, but when the dumpling was in her mouth, Zhou Xining realized that she hadn't exaggerated at all, it was so delicious, she wished she could swallow her tongue together.

There are also those pancakes, fried golden one by one, very appetizing just by looking at them, and they are burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, full of delicious fragrance.The pinch size is also suitable, just enough for two mouthfuls, and it is so delicious that she can't stop her mouth.

Before he knew it, Zhou Xining ate a dozen or so, and the old lady smiled.

Zhou Xining ate to his heart's content, and even the old lady ate more than usual.When the emerald green wild vegetable soup was served, Zhou Xining's eyes lit up, it was exactly the same as what He Beiting cooked for her back then.When I drank it into my mouth, I realized that it was just the same appearance, but the taste was much worse.That's right, at that time, there were not so many soup ingredients.

"Grandmother, let's go to the East Road tomorrow to look for it. I see that there is still a lot of open space." After dinner, Zhou Xining said with a smile when he accompanied the old lady for a walk in the yard.

"Wild vegetables grow fast, and they are fresh and delicious these few days, and they will be too old to eat in a few days. We have to dig more and save them now."

Zhou Xining was a little curious, "Is it still alive?"

"It's all the way the women in Zhuangzi came up with. As long as we have money, we can buy green vegetables in the greenhouse even in winter. Ordinary people can't afford the green vegetables grown in the greenhouse. That's expensive. Well, in their words, the price of one vegetable leaf is enough to buy their family's rations for a month.

So, they thought of a way to save some green vegetables, so that they would have vegetables to eat in winter.Although the taste may be slightly worse, but after processing, the taste is still fresh and delicious.

......"

While listening to the old lady talking about how the women in Zhuangzi turned green vegetables into dried vegetables with the same taste, and how to soak dried vegetables in winter to restore them to green vegetables, she walked in the garden.

Before he knew it, he walked far away, and when he looked up, there was a brightly lit courtyard not far in front of him.

Dimly under the reflection of the light, you can see the name of Guiyuan hanging on the sign.

Looking at the name, Zhou Xining knew why it got the name without asking, it must be because there are osmanthus trees planted in this yard.From the bright lights all over the courtyard, it can be deduced that the family of Mr. He Er from Pangzhi must live inside.

He Beiting only told her that the Bangzhi family lived in the mansion, but didn't specify the location. Presumably, she didn't want her to deal with them more, so she didn't ask.

"Oh, I've come here." Mrs. He looked at the hazy word Guiyuan, and the smile on her face faded.

"Here, it used to be the second bedroom's residence. After He Xiaoer came back, he lived here." After finishing speaking, the old lady waved her hand and said, "There used to be a wall here, which separated the osmanthus garden into one piece. Xiaotiandi, because the younger brothers of the two houses are in close contact with each other, they thought it would take a lot of effort to walk around the wall, so they opened up again."

Although the wall was opened, the hearts of the people were not.

"Auntie, why are you here? If you have something to do, just send someone over to call your nephew and daughter-in-law." Just as the old lady and Zhou Xining were about to turn around and leave, several lanterns came out of the laurel garden one after another.It was Feng Shi who came with her daughter.

How did we meet again?
