"Sister-in-law?"

Before even feeding the hot soup that he had just obtained, Qin Wuya heard a familiar voice calling out from behind him.

Qin Wuya turned around, and saw that the person who came was Fang Da, with a wooden block, Wang Liu, following behind him.

"Is sister-in-law here for noodles?"

Fang Da saw Liu Xiuyuan who sat opposite to Qin Wuya in a single glance, and she couldn't help but slightly furrow her brows in displeasure. However, his unhappiness was quickly covered up with his smile, and she did not show it to Qin Wuya.

"Yes." Qin Wuya nodded, and smiled at Fang Da and Wang Liu with a normal expression, the realization of being caught red-handed on the spot couldn't be seen from her face.

"Liu Zizi and I are also hungry, why don't sister-in-law treat us to a bowl of food as well?"

Fang Da pulled Ah Zi to the remaining two empty seats and sat down. Then, he invited the shop assistant to order two bowls of plain noodles and a plate of sliced beef.

Qin Wuya laughed, and did not reject, and only said: "Zhang Shan went to the south, and you did not follow him?"

"Military Advisor He went along with us, so Big Brother asked me to take care of matters in the hall." Fang Da's expression changed as he said somewhat awkwardly.

"Oh? Forbidden?" Qin Wuya swallowed a mouthful of hot broth and asked.

"How did sister-in-law know!" Fang Da was so surprised that her face turned red.

"With your personality, you don't seem like someone who can stay behind." The broth was quite tasty. Although it was a bit light, it was just perfect for eating. Qin Wuya swallowed twice before speaking again, "Is it because of what happened last time?"

"It's not that." Fang Da lowered his head:

"Big Bro has already given you amenorrhea, so you won't be giving it out for the next two months." Actually, I didn't want to either. I'm the only one who can't read. Sister-in-law, don't blame me anymore. "

Who can you blame?

It was not easy to make a mistake, but the Geng Pai did. If this matter were to spread out and ruin Apricot Flower's reputation, Zhang Shan would not even need to ban you, I'm afraid that I would beat you to death.

With just these words in front of outsiders, Qin Wuya found it hard to say it, so she rolled her eyes at Fang Da and did not say anything.

Being meaningfully looked at by Qin Wuya, Fang Da's head drooped even lower. Fortunately, the waiter quickly helped Fang Da out of the predicament with the noodles, so he simply buried his head in the broth and did not dare to look at Qin Wuya again.

"Has Zhang Shan received any news from him before?"

Very quickly, he finished half of the noodles in the bowl. Qin Wuya wiped away the oil on his mouth and asked contentedly as he took out the kernels s.

"No." "According to the rules of the hall, unless something big really happens, you can't send someone to deliver information when you're taking the dart." Fang Da replied seriously.

Liu Xiayuan's gaze only lingered on the three for a moment before he ate the noodles in silence. Only when Fang Da spoke about taking the dart did his narrow and long phoenix eyes slightly move. He looked at Qin Wuya while thinking about something, and his lips curled up immediately.

Sister-in-law? Brother? Darts!

It was as if this girl was not as simple as he thought.

Qin Wuya waited for a moment, seeing that Fang Da and Wang Liu were full, she got up to pay the bill, but was stopped by Liu Yue Yuan. Liu Chu Yuan smiled, took out a coin and handed it to the shop assistant:

"How can I let you spend money when I ask you out?"

Invite?! What do you mean?

Qin Wuya's face turned green.

In the blink of an eye, Winter Solstice arrived. Qin Dashan got his leave and returned to the house overnight.

In the morning, Qin Wuya and Wang Nu went to the market and sliced up two kilograms of lean meat and three taels of fat meat. Then they asked for porcine bone s and two meat lamb chops. White Isatis, red bean, and half a bowl of new glutinous rice.

The Cloud Prefecture's Winter Solstice also had the habit of making dumplings, but this place was called Plaque Food, which was an official language, and secretly called Dumpling Ear or Dumplings Ear.

The noodles used were pretty much the same as usual, with only the stuffing not the common pork meat dishes that Qin Wuya had seen in her previous life. But sweet food, most are brown sugar, peanuts, dates, chestnuts, and so on.

Back in the house, all the women in the house started to get busy. was not the best at rolling dough and dough wrappings, but Wang Nu and Madam Lin were good at it.

Qin Wuya washed the lamb chop clean, cut the meat into pieces, and then took a slice of old ginger, wolfberry and red dates to soak it. She planned to boil a pot of mutton soup.

Actually, during the Lunar New Year, drinking a bowl of fragrant mutton soup during the winter solstice was a habit that had been passed down for a long time. Only wealthy families would keep such a habit if the price of mutton was too high, but ordinary farmers would not be able to learn it.

Although Qin Wuya's current status was not very rich, at least she was going to be rich. She might not be able to afford the other things, but she was not tired of letting her family eat better.

He added more than half the water in the big pot and waited for the water to boil before putting the lamb into the pot. After boiling the blood in the meat in a medium heat, he scooped it up and washed it for use.

Add water to the bottom of the new pot and pour into the old ginger, red jujube, medlar, dried earth yellow, homemade, Kawagawa cut, and so on. Sprinkle with cooking wine, octagonal powder, white sugar, fine salt and mountain honey.

When the water was half hot, the lamb chops that had been prepared before could be put into the pot. Boil it with a gentle fire for four hours.

Closing the lid of the mutton soup pot, Qin Wuya washed it with different kinds of pork and minced it according to the method of nine skinny and one fat. She mixed the minced white cabbage with minced meat and sprinkled it with spring onion and old ginger foam, added a small amount of cooking wine, salt and octagonal powder and added some plain oil before stirring them with her chopsticks to make the filling.

Yun Zhou people were used to eating sweet dumpling ears, but Qin Wuya was a little obsessed with the taste of the cabbage and pork dumplings, so she took advantage of the fact that Wang Nu and Madam Lin had too many rolls of dough, and also made some stuffing.

When the time came, she would boil it with a little too little. She was not afraid that the smell of oil inside would spoil the sweet dumpling's taste.

Qin Wuya was a Southerner in her previous life, but a Southerner would also steam red bean glutinous rice to eat during the winter solstice. This was completely different from the rules of the Cloud Prefecture, Qin Wuya only said that she wanted to eat it.

He found a small earthenware pot and washed the beans until they were soft. Then he added six taels of new glutinous rice, sprinkled with peanut, sesame and sucrose, and steamed them in a small fire. The sweet and sticky taste was not only good, but also nourishing them against cold and disease, and preventing and dispelling diseases.

Noon, the lamb pot was placed on the table, and a group of people sat down in a circle in the kitchen.

Although Zhang Shi's body was much better, but it was still inconvenient for her to leave the house, so Madam Lin let her rest her stomach on the bed.

Xiao Bao was carried to the dining table with a few more layers of bedding wrapped up by the Zhao. After eating for more than half a month of milk, the little thing's face was significantly fatter and more spirited than before.

It could not speak yet, but it would occasionally make babbling noises. No one knew what this little thing was trying to express.

However, when she looked at the little thing's squinted eyes, she did not cry or make a ruckus, which was quite pleasing to the eyes. The sweet dumpling ears with four flavors had their own meanings. Madam Lin must make the decision to let Qin Wuya get one first.

Qin Wuya had never eaten sweet dumplings before and felt that it was strange to fish one out to put on the big plate.

"Ga beng" was the sound of metal clenching his teeth. Qin Wuya squinted his eyes and spat out the sweet dumpling in his mouth.

Everyone saw that it was actually a copper coin with a red rope on it.

Madam Lin laughed, and directly said that Qin Wuya was lucky. Wang Nu and Qin Dashan, on the other hand, praised Qin Wuya for coming here earlier in the year.

Qin Wuya smiled lightly, took the kernels and wiped the copper coin away.

After accepting the copper coin, Qin Wuya picked up another one to eat. This time, it was chestnut in color, and it tasted quite good. Seeing that Qin Wuya liked it, the Madam Lin held a big spoon in her hand and scooped up a small bowl with Qin Wuya.

When Qin Wuya saw that there were five of them in the bowl, she could not help but smile bitterly: "Mother, where are the dishes? Don't let Sweet Dumpling get full first."

Hearing that, Madam Lin was startled, but after that she felt that it was more reasonable. She passed two more dishes to herself from Qin Wuya's bowl, and laughed: "Don't be anxious, eat a bit more of every dish, and eat more."

"Since you haven't eaten dumplings, I'll have a taste first."

Most men liked to eat meat more than women. Qin Dashan had smelt the special porridge with Qin Wuya's meat from the very beginning.

Seeing that the others had not moved, Qin Dashan was so happy that he grabbed one and threw it into his mouth. However, he didn't expect that the pork would be boiled so early that hot oil would come out of it.

"Why is there so much oil?"

As Qin Dashan wiped his mouth while looking for the kernels, he felt that the taste was extremely good.

"How fragrant! Delicious!"

"Can this taste good?" The Wang Nu did not believe what she saw, and she also scooped a bite to eat. Seeing that, Qin Wuya laughed and asked:

"What do you think of the taste, mama?"

"It's not bad at all. It's not firewood at all after being minced and cooked. It also has a lot of oil and water, but I don't feel bored eating it due to the White Isatis." Wang Nu could not help but praise it as she ate: "This dish is also extremely good when it's cooked normally."

"He's really full." Qin Dashan greedily ate two more bites, and said:

"If I could eat more than ten of them while working, I would be much more energetic."

"I'm a lazy person. Otherwise, when the time comes, I'll go to the street and set up a stall to sell dumplings and earrings. I might even be able to earn a lot of money." Qin Wuya laughed, and thought of that small stall on the street that had eaten plain noodles a few days ago, it looked like their business was not bad.

"Judging from what I said, if I was lazy, I wouldn't be free every day. I wouldn't even be able to eat properly?"

Wang Nu could not help but mutter under her breath: "If you want to rent a small shop to bury dumplings and meat, I am not so busy that I can't even close my eyes."

"That's exactly the principle. We can't be too busy." When Madam Lin heard this, she could not help but interrupt, "In the end, she is still a young lady who has yet to leave the pavilion, it's not good for her to reveal herself like this.

Looking for a husband?

Qin Wuya was startled. Then, she remembered that on the day Zhang Shan came to his house to eat, Madam Lin was still unaware that she had not come out to look after Zhang Shi.

Qin Wuya's gaze quietly fell on Wang Nu and Qin Dashan, seeing the strange expressions on the two of them, she started to understand, as though the two of them had never told Madam Lin about their relationship with him.
