Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 490

The autumn morning is very clear, the free wind in the mountains rolls up the mist in the woods, swaying it cheerfully, covering the earth, houses and vegetation, and the surroundings are silvery white.

Mu Ai stood in front of the stove, humming softly, stirring the red dates and black rice porridge in the pot with a long wooden spoon in her hand, and occasionally added some firewood to the stove next to her, on which steamed buns, five inches The long prawns are peeled and cut into two pieces, and pork and fresh leeks are added as fillings. When eating, dip a little old vinegar. The delicious taste can make people swallow their tongues.

In the family, several children like this bun very much, so she got up before dawn to prepare it.

Ouyang came in from the outside sweating, reached out and hugged her from behind, and asked with a smile, "What did you do, it smells so good?"

Mu Ai turned her head and kissed him on the face, then wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and said angrily, "Why are you sweating all over, go and wash off, otherwise I won't eat."

"Okay." Ouyang smiled and kissed her back on the face, then turned and went back to the room to wash.

Not long after, the father and son took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and walked down refreshed.

Dayu is a brocade gown with green bamboo leaves. The corners and neckline of the clothes are embroidered with cloud patterns with silver thread. The suet jade crown binds the hair, and the corners of the mouth are slightly raised, which is extremely warm and stable.

Tao'er is a set of sapphire blue Yunjin clothes, with a jade belt and a red gold hair crown, which is noble and elegant.

Cheng'er and Simba liked to wear red since they were young, and they were white and fat. Today, one is wearing vermilion and the other is wearing fiery red, with an autumn-colored embroidered belt, making them look like a pair of twins, smart and lovely.

Xing'er also changed into a light concubine-colored gauze dress. The corners of the skirt were embroidered with a few lifelike butterflies with golden silk thread, as if they could fly off the dress at any time. She liked it very much, and ran into it in a few steps. In the dining room, she rushed to hug her mother and asked, "Mom, who made my dress? This butterfly is so beautiful."

Mu Ai's body was shaken by the little daughter's bump, she quickly supported the edge of the table, knocked her on the head, and scolded with a smile, "Why are you as reckless as your brother, what if you overturn the rice porridge?"

Xing'er stuck out her tongue, smiled and apologized, "Mom, I was wrong, I won't do it next time."

Mu Ai smiled helplessly, and said while setting the bowls and chopsticks, "Xichun made this dress for you a few days ago, and she probably embroidered the butterflies as well."

"Why didn't I know sister Xichun is so good at embroidery, mom, I want to learn too."

The little monkey-like little girl wanted to sit down quietly and learn embroidery, and Mu Ai of course raised her hands in agreement, "Okay, since you want to learn, I'll let Xichun teach you, you are ten years old, you can't play crazy with your two brothers anymore Now, it’s time to learn some jobs that girls should know.”

"Who wants to learn how to work?" Ouyang led Dayu and the others into the dining hall and asked aloud.

"Xing'er wants to learn embroidery, and when he is finished, he will make clothes for us all." Mu Ai smiled and let him sit beside him.

Xing'er originally said on a whim that she wanted to learn embroidery, and was regretting that she couldn't play with her brothers in the future, but when she heard what her mother said, she immediately straightened up and said, "Yes, I want to learn embroidery, and then give it to my parents and my brother." We make the best clothes in the world."

Simba wanted to say something, but his mother immediately swallowed it back with a glance. After all, the youngest daughter had to learn how to embroider, how could Mu Ai allow the youngest son to beat her.

The family gossips, with four plates of refreshing side dishes, porridge and steamed stuffed buns.

Outside the wide open glass window, you can see from a distance, Shouhou and others are sitting under the tree, holding buns in their hands and eating.

Mu Ai didn't want Ouyang to think too much, so she laughed, "Cui Meng and the others stay outside early in the morning, and they don't even want to come back for dinner."

Ouyang picked up a piece of sweet and sour lotus root slices for her, and glanced outside, "After dinner, it's time for people to come over there."

Mu Ai nodded and sneered, "They really think I'm a bad-tempered face, asking me to save the person who wants to kill me, what a joke."

Ouyang said, "Although we are not afraid of the Tang Sect, all the people in the Jianghu are watching, showing both kindness and majesty, just a little deterrence. After all, the children will come out to walk in the Jianghu after all,"
Mu Ai frowned slightly, took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, took out the prawns inside and gave it to her little daughter, and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Gu should come to the door soon. If we want to detoxify, we can only give some spring water and medicinal materials. But they don’t have the ability to live to the death.”

Ouyang smiled warmly, "As long as we are saved, it has nothing to do with us."

Mu Ai understood, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Listen to you."

The family had dinner, and the children were sitting in the living room. Simba was rarely willing to calm down and help his eldest brother check the accounts. Tao'er took Xing'er and Cheng'er to practice calligraphy.

Mu Ai and his wife went upstairs together to change into a set of clothes for meeting guests. As soon as they got down, before they sat down, Shouhou came in and reported, "Boss, there are two brothers and sisters asking to see you outside, and they say they are friends of the eldest son."

Dayu guessed that they were brothers and sisters from the Lou family, so he quickly stood up, walked over, and said, "Mom, these two brothers and sisters are from the Lou family in Mingyue City, and they are very familiar with us all the way south."

Tao'er also chimed in, "Auntie, we have been taken care of by them a lot in the past few days at the villa."

Mu Ai smiled and said, "It's a good thing to have friends come to visit, let's welcome them in."

Dayu and Tao'er thanked each other and went out together. After a while, they welcomed the Lou family brothers and sisters in.

The brothers and sisters have always regarded Dayu and the others as the children of ordinary small rich families. It was unbelievable to hear that their status was so noble last night. The old man held back, and came to the door today as a last resort to help intercede.

At the door, the two saw Dayu and Tao'er changed their clothes for the first time. They were full of nobleness and elegance. Regret, low self-esteem, and shame, and the face turns blue and white, which is very lively.

The two entered the hall, were amazed by the unique decorations in the room, were stunned for a moment, and then saw the Mu Ai couple sitting on the sofa, the two immediately lowered their heads slightly, respectfully greeted Li, Mu Ai Helping them up with a smile, he said, "Da Yu and his brothers and sisters have been traveling with you these few days, and you are too tired to take care of them."

Lou Changyi quickly said, "Ma'am, you're being polite. It's our brother and sister who are under the care of Brother Ouyang... No, His Royal Highness is right. I didn't know the inside story in the past. If there is any offense, I hope the king and the princess don't blame me."

Mu Ai raised her brows, knowing that the two brothers and sisters were separated due to the change of their identities, but this is the children's business, and it is inconvenient for her to intervene.

So he turned his head and called Dayu to come forward, and said with a smile, "Maybe there will be guests visiting later, so you can take your younger siblings, Young Master Lou, and Miss Lou to the flower hall on the second floor."

"Yes, mother." Dayu responded, and said with a smile, "Brother Lou, our brother and sister live up there, please come up with me and sit down for a while."

Lou Yuying remembered the old man Sima Yuan's entrustment just now, and was about to speak, but was stopped by her elder brother who pulled his sleeves. The children all went upstairs, and the living room became quiet.

Mu Ai leaned on Ouyang's body and sighed, "This Lou family boy seems to be very polite, I hope he won't alienate Dayu and Tao'er because of his status."

Ouyang patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes are proud, and there is not so much to say."

Mu Ai pouted and retorted, "That's right, there are quite a few proud people kneeling outside."

The two couples were talking, and the thin monkey announced outside the door, "I report to the leader and madam, Mr. Gu and several seniors from Jianghu are here to visit."

Mu Ai straightened her waist, licked her temple hair, and sighed, "It's really hard to stop."

Ouyang adjusted the corners of her skirt for her, and led her out to meet her.

Mr. Gu is familiar with this villa, and after entering the hall, he sat down on the sofa, picked up the apple on the coffee table, and complained as he gnawed, "Xian girl, what's so good about you here?" Eat, give me some food to fill my belly, the food in the villa is like feeding pigs."

The old drunkard and others who followed him laughed. The food at the villa originally tasted so-so, but after what happened last night, people were panic-stricken. Naturally, they couldn't cook anything delicious. They only drank a few sips of boiled water in the morning. The porridge was mushy, so he rushed over to intercede. Old man Gu talked about getting some delicious food along the way, but he opened his mouth to eat as soon as he entered the door.

Everyone laughed, embarrassing Sima Yuan who stood at the end, but also resolved the invisible atmosphere of opposition.

"I just steamed the steamed buns stuffed with three delicacies. If the old man doesn't dislike them, he can just fill his stomach with it."

"Okay, the old man's favorite is three fresh stuffing. If I knew you eat steamed stuffed buns here, I would have come here to wait for you."

Mu Ai turned around with a smile and went into the kitchen, took two plates of steamed buns, two boxes of snacks and two plates of fruit from the space, made six pieces, and brought them into the hall on a tray.

Mr. Gu grabbed a steamed stuffed bun first, and started to eat it, yelling about the deliciousness while eating, which made the old Zhutou, the old drunkard and others beside him salivate.

Mu Ai looked amused, and said, "Seniors, let's also try the skills of the younger generation."

The old men were overjoyed immediately, and started to eat unceremoniously. Seeing that the bun was about to bottom out, Mr. Gu quickly took another one and held it in his hand, and said angrily, "If I had known, I would have come here by myself." , it’s no use taking you guys, and you even robbed me of my steamed stuffed bun.”

Several old men glared at him together, ignored them, and continued to eat beautifully.

Mu Ai poured tea for them with her own hands, waited for them to eat and drink enough, and said without hesitation, "Master Gu, this junior knows why you came here. If it was someone else, there is absolutely no room for change in this matter, but, we Mother and son traveled south, thanks to the support of the old man all the way, especially on the Banyue Mountain in Huadu. gone."

Sima Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. No matter what dynasty or generation, people in the martial arts are forbidden to oppose the imperial court. Don't say that Wanjian Villa has not yet taken the position of leader of the martial arts. Compete with the power of a country.It was a blessing for Wanjian Villa that the poisonous needle was stuck on Tang Feng last night, otherwise, if this prince, county prince, and prince hurt anyone, Wanjian Villa would probably be gone today, and their family would only be in exile.
