Chapter 293 I Forgot All About It
Zhang Haotian: "Qingzi and I thought we would spend our time at home, anyway, it's quite cold outside."

"Okay, come over tomorrow, and prepare the ingredients you understand, and I will send you the menu later."

Li Feng nodded and said, there is free manpower, so you don't need it for nothing.It's winter, he also wants to go out, the air conditioner is on at home, how warm it is,
As soon as he finished the phone call, Li Feng tore off a sticky note on the coffee table, took a photo of the ingredients to be prepared on it, and sent it to the mouse on WeChat.

After finishing all this, Li Feng stretched himself, picked up his phone to check the time, it was only after 3 o'clock in the afternoon, shook his head, stood up from the sofa, and went back to the bedroom.

……

around 5pm

Zhao Mengyao slowly opened her eyes, looked at the face in front of her, froze for a moment, then smiled lightly.

Reaching out to touch her bulging belly, Zhao Mengyao smiled happily.

"Silly girl, what are you laughing at?"

In fact, Li Feng was not asleep either, when Zhao Mengyao made this small movement, he woke up, opened his eyes, looked at Zhao Mengyao who was staring at him with a smirk, Li Feng stretched out his hand and tapped the tip of Zhao Mengyao's nose lightly.

"what!"

Li Feng's click brought Zhao Mengyao back to reality. Looking at Li Feng who was smiling at him, Zhao Mengyao said lightly, "Li Feng, I didn't expect you to be quite handsome!"

Li Feng smiled and said, "I haven't always been handsome, why are you asking now."

"Beautiful!"

Zhao Mengyao spat lightly, then turned her head away.

Li Feng didn't allow Zhao Mengyao to turn his head away, and immediately held Zhao Mengyao's cheek, making her face him.

"What?"

Zhao Mengyao blinked and asked nervously.

"What are you afraid of! They're all old couples."

Li Feng chuckled, and immediately put his mouth together.

……

The next day, Laba Festival, commonly known as "Laba", is held on the eighth day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar. Of course, there are some places where there are activities such as sacrifices. In fact, Li Feng only knows one thing about Laba Festival. He didn't know about these activities of offering sacrifices to Baidu overnight.

"Li Feng, you haven't celebrated Laba Festival, have you?" Zhao Mengyao's voice sounded in the living room, and she muttered, "I thought you were ready, but you..."

Zhao Mengyao was really speechless. She didn't have any scented candles ready for sacrifice, let alone the ingredients for the eight-treasure porridge needed for Laba. Many people travel, and the roads are very congested.

Qiqi also lay on the sofa with Lang Lang in her arms, pouted and said, "Mom and Dad, can Qiqi not be able to drink eight-treasure porridge today?"

Li Feng smiled helplessly, "Daughter-in-law, you shouldn't be so pessimistic. I forgot about it before, so I didn't prepare for it. I'm just prepared for the rats. Clean it up. The rats will come soon."

Zhao Mengyao could feel that Li Feng had forgotten this, of course she was not angry, after all Li Feng didn't have much experience in festivals, "By the way, when did you say that Zhang Haotian and the others were coming? Why didn't I get any news. "

"During the break yesterday afternoon, the mouse called me and asked us that we would not celebrate the Laba Festival, so I asked him to help prepare."

Li Feng smiled slightly and poured a cup of hot milk for his wife and Qiqi.

Zhao Mengyao looked at him and shook her head and said, "I see, it wasn't Zhang Haotian who reminded you, you probably don't know that the Laba Festival is going to be celebrated!"

Li Feng didn't speak, Zhao Mengyao was right, otherwise Zhang Haotian's phone call yesterday, he really didn't know that today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, commonly known as the Laba Festival.

Li Feng tried to ask: "Shall I prepare something?"

Zhao Mengyao rubbed her brows and said, "It's not your fault, I forgot about it myself, otherwise I should have prepared it last night. The Laba porridge bought outside is not very delicious. We have to make it ourselves, but now let's check the time. Probably not."

Li Feng smiled, sat next to Zhao Mengyao, pinched the center of her eyebrows for her, and said, "Daughter-in-law, this is actually not bad, at least you don't have to be too tired, the takeaway ones are not tasty, but at least you can eat them, if you make them yourself , It’s a waste of time, don’t you do it yourself every Laba Festival in the past?”

This is what Qiqi was talking about, and she refuted her father's words and said, "Dad, of course, my mother has to make the ingredients for Laba porridge by herself on the day before the Laba Festival every year. It is very delicious, but this year, Qiqi, you should Can't eat."

Said, in the end, the little girl was still a little disappointed. This year, she was supposed to eat the Laba porridge made at home with her parents, but this year's Laba Festival, her parents even forgot, and she didn't have the Laba porridge she wanted to eat.

Feeling that his daughter was a little lost, Li Feng blamed himself for forgetting, but there was no remedy, so he suggested, "Daughter-in-law, why don't we get some ingredients today, and we can eat them tomorrow."

Li Feng is also clear about the method of Laba porridge. After all, he has some other world, the memory of the whole world, washing rice, soaking fruit, peeling, removing core, carefully sorting, and then adding it to boil.

Zhao Mengyao wanted to stop it, saying: "Li Feng, don't be so troublesome, we can do it next year."

Li Feng smiled lightly, "It's okay, don't bother, as long as you are happy, anyway, this is the first year of our family reunion, and the Laba Festival can't be wasted like this."

Zhao Mengyao asked, "What about Zhang Haotian and the others?"

Li Feng: "I won't go today. Anyway, they have a house upstairs. It's okay to stay for one night. They can go to work after eating Laba porridge tomorrow. Anyway, he doesn't have much work, so he basically explained it. The only ones who are busy are the remaining employees.”

Zhao Mengyao nodded, "That's fine, you can take care of your own affairs, but how do you prepare the ingredients?"

Li Feng: "I'll go out to buy in the afternoon, and you can just give me the ingredients I need later."

In fact, he doesn't need the recipe of eight-treasure porridge prepared by Zhao Mengyao, he has a better one, but he knows that this is the first year of their family together, using Zhao Mengyao's ingredient recipe is more meaningful than his, anyway, it's not Only this year, there is still time next year, and the year after that, even decades.

It was around 10 o'clock in the morning when Zhang Haotian and the others arrived at the apartment. Qiqi went to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, she asked Li Qing for a gift, which made Zhao Mengyao feel a little embarrassed. When I think about it, I know who taught my daughter.

"Mom, take a look! Aunt Qing's gift! It's Qiqi's favorite cake." The little girl carried the box with the cake with great difficulty, and ran to her parents.
