Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods
Chapter 521 Chapter 521 Lantern Festival Chapter
After returning to the Shen family courtyard, they dispersed. She didn't know if the others could fall asleep in excitement because of the unique opportunity of the day. Anyway, Cheng Xi closed her eyes and went to meet Zhou Xing soon.
It turns out that shopping is more tiring than training, both physically and mentally.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Shen family became lively. After breakfast, Qin Zheng came over with gifts and chatted about family affairs. The two of them also learned a lot about the Qin family.
"Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin came to Beijing? When?"
"I just arrived yesterday afternoon, thanks to the escort from Hongwei Escort Agency."
"Don't you, the Qin family, have your own bodyguards? Why did you hire someone from the escort agency?"
"Now the name of Hongwei Escort Agency is resounding throughout Dayan. Their skills are much better than my guards. Thanks to my parents having some reputation in Lin'an Mansion, I heard that others have to queue up if they want to hire someone from the Escort Agency. Well, especially during the Chinese New Year, it’s even more difficult.”
So exaggerated?
Cheng Xi was dumbfounded and turned his head to look at Shen Xingluo for confirmation. The latter nodded invisibly in confirmation.
Let me go~ uncles are awesome!
"The Hongwei Escort Agency has only gained a good reputation in the past year. In the past, it was only famous in Lin'an Prefecture. Now the Escort Agency not only escorts valuable escorts, but also offers a message delivery service, which is as fast as the official post station."
Shen Xingluo lowered his head and explained, "Fu Guang is helping take care of it."
It turned out to be the case.
"Add chicken drumsticks to him at noon."
commendable!
"it is good."
Qin Zheng took advantage of the opportunity and asked, "Do you have my share?"
"Then it depends on whether the gift you brought is heavy or not."
"Heavy, heavy, heavy!"
A wooden box with exquisite packaging and red silk appeared in front of the two of them. The young man of the Qin family was very discerning and opened it at the owner's instruction. Several transparent jadeite stones appeared in front of their eyes.
Cheng Xi: "."
That's really heavy.
The density of jadeite with such good water quality is higher than that of marble, so it is surprising that it is so light.
But why did he give this thing as a gift?
Cheng Xi thought about the jade hairpin with complicated patterns carved on her head, and felt a little clear about it, but also a little unsure.
Shen Xingluo's slender fingers had already picked up one of the pieces, and he was very satisfied.
"Thank you, thank you."
"It's all trivial. I collected it near the capital. The Qin family also has a caravan in southern Xinjiang. I'll give Brother Shen a few more yuan when the time comes. I guarantee your satisfaction."
Cheng Xi: "."
Okay, she got it.
Shen Xingluo was not polite and accepted the gift casually.
"Since my uncle and aunt have returned to Beijing, we should go and visit. I wonder if it's convenient at home?"
"Convenient and convenient, I will sweep the couch to welcome you."
Qin Zheng smiled brightly, "My parents plan to return on the tenth day of the lunar month. There are several uncles who have other favors in the house. They have a lot of time these days."
They chatted for a while, and Yu Heting, who also had no relatives in the capital, came with Little Carrot Head and some pastries in his hands.
This day naturally turned into a gathering of friends.
Officials in the capital have a 16-day holiday during the Chinese New Year, eight days each year before and after the new year. During this period, the Holy Spirit will also seal the pen, which can be said to be good news for Yan's civil servants.
The three men gathered in the study and chatted about court affairs at some point. Yu Hefeng's friend, dressed in red like a New Year doll, followed Cheng Xi like a little tail from the living room. Followed to the kitchen, and then followed from the kitchen to the living room.
"Sister, what shall we eat today?"
"What do you want to eat, Xiaofeng? Just ask, and let your sister Xingqi do it."
"Okay! I want to eat steamed shrimps with eggs, and some caramel dices."
"They are all there, they are all there."
In view of the presence of outsiders, all the ingredients Shen Xingqi prepared were available in the Great Yan Dynasty at this time. Meat is indispensable in winter, and the Shen family has no shortage of vegetables since they have a greenhouse. The lunch is very rich.
Not only Qin Zheng's mouth was full of oil after eating this meal, but even Yu Heting also let out an invisible sigh.
"Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen are really good at their craftsmanship. I'm ashamed to say that even if I had the recipe, I couldn't make it taste like this."
Shen Xingqi nodded secretly in her mind. In the past, she would have thought it was due to different skills, but since she had been to the apocalypse, she had guessed some of the facts.
The water at home is different from the water outside. This should be the key.
My brother and sister-in-law have a lot of secrets!
"My brother's cooking is delicious."
Friend Yu Hefeng had a different opinion, "Brother is also awesome!"
"Since Xiaofeng said it was delicious, Brother Yu's craftsmanship must be excellent."
Yu Heting laughed and reached out to stroke his brother's furry hair lovingly, feeling very at ease.
In the afternoon, several colleagues from the Lin'an Mansion came to visit the Shen family one after another. Cheng Xi made the tea and left it alone. With Su Zhan and Fuguang on his side, he simply got down to business.
——Teach Shen Xingqi and Wang Shu how to learn modern knowledge.
He took out his tablet, clicked on the early education class Chinese lesson that the system downloaded, and placed it in front of the two of them.
Soon a soft girl's voice sounded like a coaxing child in the video:
"Come and read with me, 1 is like a branch, thin and long, 2 is like a duck floating on the water, 3 is like a little ear, 4 is like a small flag blowing in the wind."
Shen Xingqi: "."
Wangshu: "."
Cheng Xi: "Hahahahahahaha O(∩_∩)O~~~~"
The two of them were speechless for a long time, and finally broke through their shame and read along with the childish voice in the video.
Cheng Xi had no choice. If she wanted to learn modern knowledge, she couldn't teach her everything. She didn't have that much energy, right?
And professional things must be done by professionals. The teachers in the video are serious and certified. They have experienced many practical tests, and their strength is very good.
not to mention.
Some things have to be influenced subtly, such as modern thinking.
Learning from early childhood is the key!
***
The meal at noon on the second day of the lunar new year was like a signal. Since Qin Zheng and the Yu brothers left, the Shen family had no other guests who needed to serve meals. Shen Xingqi, the chef, was about to lose his job.
The reason has to start with the large and small bags bought from Interstellar Supermarket.
I tried a fast food meal, and everyone seemed to have opened some kind of magical door. Even the main meals were not delicious. Today there were instant noodles, and tomorrow there were various flavors of self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot. All the food took turns, lasting for several days. Even the snacks like French fries, spicy slices and chicken feet are very popular.
Cheng Xi tried to persuade them many times to no avail, so he simply let them go.
Isn't it just a novelty? After trying it all, the excitement will naturally fade away.
However, she misjudged the influence of modern cuisine and was soon slapped in the face.
After Shen Xingluo took her to visit the elders of Du Mansion, Jiang Mansion and Qin Mansion one after another, the house was still not very serious. As soon as she entered the door, she saw several people gathering around the iron stove to eat French fries.
Cheng Xi: "."
Speechless again.
Seeing that his wife was about to get angry, Shen Xingluo made a decisive decision.
"Xingqi has been studying very effectively these past few days. Do you think you should let your father-in-law and the others join us?" "!"
As a result, the shameful duo suddenly became a group, and the smile on Cheng Daqian's face disappeared visibly, and not even the hot strips could save him.
The Chinese New Year was spent learning modern knowledge day by day. Occasionally when they were tired of studying, Cheng Xi would take them to the apocalyptic plane and bring back several large plastic bags of fast snacks to increase their inventory.
Unfortunately, Zhuang Xuan never returned to the base during this period and followed Team Xu on missions at the base.
In a blink of an eye, the ninth day of the Lunar New Year arrived, and Shen Xingluo was about to go to work. In order to accommodate his schedule, the Shen family's breakfast was set to just before dawn.
The letter sent by Cheng Daqian received a reply. The chief escort thought that he just wanted to get closer to his daughter and son-in-law, so he agreed. However, the matter of supporting Guang was a bit troublesome, and there were a lot of things waiting for him outside.
"In the future, you and Su Zhan will take turns staying in the capital, and don't forget to train a few more assistants."
"Thank you, sir."
Fuguang was happy, with a smile on his cold face.
Wang Shu knew that his brother would not leave Beijing soon, so he took over the job of preparing Su Zhan's luggage. He also took great care to pack and download the modern teaching videos and stuffed a few more solar chargers into the space.
Su Zhan: "."
***
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
When Cheng Xi woke up in the morning, he felt the sun shining warmly on his face for a moment. His brain was hazy for a while before he remembered that Shen Xingluo had a rest today and didn't need to get up early.
This gave her a long-lost feeling of working from nine to five.
"woke up?"
"Well, what time is it?"
"8:20."
Shen Xingluo liked the modern precise timekeeping method very much. In the past few years, whenever he wanted to know the time, he would look at the Arabic numerals displayed on the system.
He put down the book in his hand and tucked the people around him into bed.
"Still sleepy?"
"I'm not sleepy anymore. I promised Xingqi to make Lantern Festival with her today."
"It's still early, you can sleep a little longer."
"Do you think I'm a pig?"
Cheng Xi just muttered something, and as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that his hand reaching for the bedside table froze, as if it was stuck.
She was confused and looked towards the cabinet along her handwriting. A familiar wooden box came into view.
That was the box where the hostas were placed last time.
"You prepared another gift?"
".Um."
"What is it?"
"."
Shen Xingluo pursed his lips and did not answer.
Cheng Xi's curiosity was aroused. He lifted the quilt and reached out to pick up the wooden box into his arms. He opened the box with interest.
I saw a violet, chubby, fist-sized piglet placed inside. It was beautifully carved, naive and cute, cute and energetic, and there was a piece of red emerald under its limbs and belly as a cushion.
"."
pig?
Why pig?
Shen Xingluo coughed lightly and said, "You are a pig."
Cheng Xi: It turns out it’s still a pig.
"I didn't prepare a gift for you this time either."
Cheng Xi felt like she had lost again, "How about I carve a zodiac dog for you?"
One year older than her.
"Need not."
Shen Xingluo's dark eyes gradually deepened as he looked at her, "The return gift last time was good."
what?
what?
Before Cheng Xi had time to recall what the last return gift was, she felt a warm touch on her lips. A big hand grabbed her waist and fell into the other person's arms. After a moment, she was deprived of air.
This time the kiss was even longer and longer than the last time. Shen Xingluo seemed to have an extremely keen sense of everything, and his ability to draw inferences from one instance put everyone to shame. The other party was quickly defeated.
"Did you go somewhere to further your studies?"
Is this still an ancient person? Are you sure you haven't watched the DVD?
After a long time, Cheng Xi stared at him helplessly and asked for an explanation.
Shen Xingluo lowered his eyes and stared at her glossy lips, which gradually deepened. His Adam's apple rolled twice and finally could not withstand the restlessness. He lowered his head and kissed her again. The eyes that exuded a trace of anger in his arms became bright again. Run.
*
——I am the dividing line of river crab——
*
All the raw materials for making Lantern Festival have been prepared in the kitchen.
As Shen Xingqi prepared the ingredients, she frequently cast doubtful glances to the side.
Why were her sister-in-law's lips so red and swollen after not seeing her all night?
Of the spinach pimple soup and stir-fried vegetables we had last night, the only spicy food was the spicy cabbage pickled years ago, but it wasn’t that spicy!
In the morning, it’s rice porridge with xiaolongbao.
Strange, really strange.
"What are you thinking about? Have you ground the black sesame seeds?"
"Oh, oh, okay, here it is!"
Shen Xingqi was brought back from her wandering thoughts, lowered her head and started busy.
Yuanxiao is a very representative traditional food. It is not too difficult to make and is nutritious and healthy. It is not new in this imaginary Yan Dynasty, but the taste when bought is always a bit worse.
The three of them started making ingredients such as white glutinous rice flour, black sesame seeds, cooking oil, fine sugar, and crushed peanuts that were ground into fine powder.
There are two kinds of Yuanxiao stuffings today, black sesame stuffing and peanut crumb stuffing.
In fact, Cheng Xi really wants to try the durian-flavored Yuanxiao. The durian trees planted in the space are in the season of maturity, but the taste is a bit strong. People who love it to the core and those who avoid snakes and scorpions are almost one to one. For the sake of reputation among the neighbors, I finally gave up the idea.
Well, if you want to eat in the future, you can enter the space.
Secretly, turn on the stove.
Light up the stove, stir-fry the black sesame seeds and peanuts and then grind them into fine powder. Remove the film from the pork suet, mince it and add white sugar to make the filling without adding so many seasonings.
Shen Xingqi brought a clean large porcelain basin, took out an appropriate amount of glutinous rice flour, added spring water and kneaded it into glutinous rice dough. Then she divided the glutinous rice dough into equal-sized glutinous rice dumplings, added an appropriate amount of fillings and wrapped them up.
A Lantern Festival is completed in three or two strokes.
Strictly speaking, what the Shen family makes is not Yuanxiao but Tangyuan. After all, Yuanxiao is mostly rolled out, and there is no need to make glutinous rice into glutinous rice balls.
However, several people felt that the rolled yuanxiao was not as firm as glutinous rice balls and the taste was different, so they unanimously adopted this method.
The three of them are all good hands in the kitchen, and soon a large pot of glutinous rice balls was ready. The ones filled with black sesame seeds were placed on the left, and the ones filled with crushed peanuts were placed on the right. They only needed to boil the water, put the dumplings in and cook for a while. Just eat it.
Of course, we can't just eat Yuanxiao at noon. The three of us also made some refreshing side dishes.
"Bring some to Su Zhan, too. Is he leaving after sixteen?"
"Correct."
Wangshu prepared a bunch of things for him yesterday, stuffed them all into the space, and almost sent him away directly.
