Spring is coming

As the New Year approaches, the white winter days are also dyed red by the fireworks and firecrackers carried back by the villagers, which has the smell of red azaleas all over the mountains in spring.

Mrs. Gao took out five taels of broken silver from the wooden box where she saved money. After weighing it, she asked Mo Jingchun to send it to Hang Sheng.

Their family was going to meet Lu Ying, so there was no reason for the Bo family to give out the money.

Although people have money, they cannot take it as their own for granted.

Mo Jingchun took the blueprint to the carpenter in the village. The carpenter scratched his head and looked sideways and vertically, but he couldn't figure out the solution. If he tried to split it abruptly, he was afraid that the things inside would be damaged.

In order to suppress Mo Jingchun's anxiety, Bo Qingshan deliberately coaxed her to go to the village to see the "ground mouse" that Hang Sheng had moved back.

Before they even got close, they heard the squeaking sounds of a group of children. It was probably because of the novel ground mice running around that scared them a lot. Mo Jingchun had a slight smile in his eyes, walked over maliciously, and covered his head. Mo Ying looked into the eyes and made a buzzing sound to scare her: "The ground rat is coming!"

"Ah——" Mo Ying jumped away unprepared, turned around and saw Mo Jingchun, the smile on her face became even brighter: "Okay, you——" He pretended to tickle her.

"Eh? Please say goodbye. Look who is behind you?" As Mo Jingchun begged for mercy, he caught a glimpse of Bo Qingshan's shadow behind him and quickly pulled him out to block the sword. "Your 'god' is watching you!"

Mo Ying blushed, and actually stopped there, and pushed her awkwardly: "What are you doing! Be careful that Young Master Bo hears you!"

"I don't care, then you call me good sister and I won't call you."

Mo Jingchun deliberately ducked to the side and bumped into Mo Ping, who was full of worries.

"oops"

"Ah, it didn't hurt you, did it?" Mo Jingchun and Mo Ying quickly stopped fighting and stepped forward to check Mo Ping's injuries. Fortunately, they were wrapped thickly in winter, but there were some skin abrasions on their palms.

"I'll accompany you to wash it. Although the skin is scratched, the sand is embedded in the flesh." It was all red and white, and Mo Jingchun felt pain just looking at it.

"No, no need, sister Chun'er, no need to bother." Their movements attracted the attention of those around them. Mo Yuan also glanced here from time to time. Mo Ping deliberately avoided it, took back her hand and walked home.

Mo Ying hid next to Mo Jingchun's head and whispered: "Are they getting into trouble? Don't you think it's weird?"

"No," Mo Jingchun thought of Mo Yuan asking about Mo Ping a few days ago.

"Maybe it's just to avoid suspicion. Why do you care so much about others?" Mo Jingchun turned her around and said again, "We will buy meat tomorrow and come back to make dumplings and stuff sausages. Where is your family? When are you going to stuff it?" "

"It should be soon, right? How about I go back and ask my mother later to see if we can join our family?"

"That's fine, we should prepare to go home." Mo Jingchun lowered his head and thought for a moment, "If you want to come, come tomorrow. It will definitely be too late tonight, and the day after tomorrow will be too late."

"Okay!" Mo Ying flew past Bo Qingshan, lowering his head without even looking at him.

Bo Qingshan walked over slowly and found that Mo Jingchun's cousin ran away as soon as she saw him without saying hello. He felt very strange: "Have I ever offended your cousin?"

"Ah? No, she just had something to do when she got home."

"When I come back, will something happen at home?" What a coincidence.

Mo Jingchun thought, "You are not offended. This little girl is shy and uncomfortable when she sees you."

This must not be said. Mo Ying would have to beat her back.

Mo Jingchun felt weird in his heart, Mo Ying and Bo Qingshan. Well, maybe this combination looked weird.

She raised her head and said to Bo Qingshan, "Brother Bo, aren't you going home during the Chinese New Year?"

"I won't go back." What's there to go back to?Just leave his eldest brother to suffer alone. "Then, my grandma asked me to ask you about your New Year's Eve dinner, do you want to spend it with our family? It's just you, Hang Sheng, and Uncle Wu at home. It's too deserted. It would be more lively with the two families."

When she raised her head to look at him, the fluffy bangs on her forehead fell softly on her eyelids, making her eyes itchy. She had to blink and secrete tears to adjust.

Bo Qingshan's heart felt soft because of her lamb-like eyes. He raised his hand and parted her bangs from the middle: "Don't you know how to reach out and do it?"

"It's too cold." Her hands had just been warmed by the sleeves, and she was not willing to move at all.

"Okay, we will come to your house then." Bo Qingshan curled his lips, "It seems that you have prepared some lucky money for someone?"

"No." Mo Jingchun was unmoved when he heard that he had money. Instead, he said seriously, "Those who are not yet married are children. Children cannot give new year's money to others."

"I"

It was rare for Bo Qingshan to choke. After watching enough fireworks, Mo Jingchun strode back in a comfortable mood.

The Chinese New Year will be here in five or six days. When walking on the village road, you can see that every household is busy cleaning their homes. In the Mo family, since the Gao family moved to recuperate, Mo He is left alone to guard the empty courtyard. The Yuanlin family became jealous as if they had become enemies.

Mo He swept the house inside and out, and wiped all the cabinets and the dusty places on the bed until they were shiny. He was looking forward to the return of the Gao family tomorrow.

The next day, after returning to Mo's house, Mo Jingchun went to Butcher Wang's house in the next village and bought ten kilograms of pork. The price was high during the New Year and cost 450 Wen.

Butcher Wang heard her say that she wanted to stuff sausages, and the meat he cut was all fat and thin.

Bought casings again.

I also bought a pair of lard. This winter, I can make some lard and eat it.

Of course she couldn't carry it alone. Fortunately, Mo Qinglin came on a donkey. The donkey slowed down after loading the heavy object. Mo Jingchun couldn't bear to sit on it again.

Mo Qinglin held the rope, and Mo Jingchun was carried by the donkey, and walked slowly back home.

After Gao and Mo He organized their things, they moved out the sausage stuffing tools and small benches and worked in the yard in the sun.

There is no need to wash the meat for filling the sausages. Just rub it with wine evenly after you get it back, otherwise it will be easy to break when drying.

Mo Jingchun went to Liu's house and tasted the wine. After a sip, he knew it was done.

The wine is white in color, slightly turbid, and tastes mellow and slightly sweet. Excluding the ones that were broken halfway, the two bottles that are intact weigh more than 20 kilograms.

It was my first trial and error with Liu, and it was pretty good to get these.

She and Ms. Liu each left a few kilograms to drink at home. Ms. Gao still felt strange: "No one in our family drinks, so what are you doing with them?"

She, Mo Qinglin, and Gao herself, none of them could drink.

Mo Jingchun pursed his lips, full of expectation, and said, "It's for cooking."

Rice dumplings made with fermented rice are eaten with osmanthus and sugar. They are rich in flavor, cool and sweet.

There are also rice wine simmered eggs and rice wine fish bones. You can make them in various ways.
