LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 219 Wrapped by hand
Dumplings are more difficult for them, but glutinous rice balls are still okay.
With the glutinous rice dumpling fillings prepared and sticky rice noodles ready, Mrs. Chang simply called on everyone to join in the fun.
One by one, they washed their hands clean and rolled up their sleeves. Several small dumplings were rubbing the fillings seriously.
They were responsible for making glutinous rice balls, and even those as young as four and five were making dumplings.
The little guys are quite smart and have learned how to divide labor.
Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi were responsible for kneading the dough and dividing it into equal portions. Long Baoer and Chang Ying divided the fillings into small portions. Each person was responsible for one type, peanut and black sesame. This is a filling that the whole family loves.
Chang Yi is responsible for the final work, placing the fillings on the dough and wrapping them.
Several people divided the work and cooperated, and finally worked together, and everyone was quite serious.
In the middle of the process, Ning came over to check and found that what they did was really good, at least there was no secret.
Xue Qingsong and Chang Chun returned earlier than everyone expected, followed by the brothers Xue Lei and Xue Zhen, and of course the smiling Chang Maozhi, who went to court today specifically to watch the excitement.
The four members of the family felt their noses sore when they saw the whole family going into battle to prepare food for them.
I haven't been home for several months, and when I came back and saw all this, I felt a bit sour, especially the Xue brothers. I was very touched when I saw several younger brothers and sisters making glutinous rice balls for them seriously.
"Why are you back so soon?" Mrs. Chang wiped the flour on her hands and asked with a smile.
Let’s leave the rest of the work to the kitchen so that everyone can have a good meal.
The stuff they pack is enough to eat.
"It was the Holy One who cared about us and knew that we were eager to return home, so he did not hold a palace banquet, but let us come back." Xue Qingsong said.
"That's good." Madam Chang smiled and nodded, knowing that the Holy Spirit must be in a very good mood now.
This time Xue Qingsong and Chang Chun returned, not only bringing a letter of surrender from Xihuang Kingdom, but also many good things from the other side as tribute.
It is said that there are twenty cars.
Every car was packed to the brim, leaving deep ruts.
However, the entire army transported it, even if the box was made of gold, no one dared to think wrong and it was sent back to the capital smoothly.
These are all external things, even if they are priceless, they will not make the Holy One happy.
What really made him happy was that the criminal escorted back with him was the third prince of Xihuang Kingdom who was directly captured.
This third prince is very famous in Xihuang Kingdom. It is said that he is so brave and good at fighting. It is even said that he is invincible in every battle.
Of course, this legend spread after the Xue family returned to the capital.
When Xue Qingsong and Chang Chun were at the border, they had never heard of such a person. They thought that Xihuang Kingdom had established a god of war for itself to let the people follow their wishes.
This time Xue Qingsong and Chang Chun went to the border in person and captured the third prince on the spot in the final battle. This was also the key to the end of the war.
After all, this third prince was the prince's biological brother and the favorite of the king of Xihuang Kingdom. As soon as he was captured, the war would end immediately.
In order to save his son's life, the old leader of Xihuang Kingdom surrendered directly.
But is surrender enough?
Therefore, the third prince was not sent back, but was directly escorted back by Xue Qingsong.
To put it bluntly, this is a hostage.
Will Xihuang Kingdom be dishonest next? If you are dishonest, I will kill you immediately!
With the letter of surrender, gold and silver as compensation, paying tribute year after year and becoming a vassal, and such a big hostage, how could the Holy One be unhappy.
A moment after Xue Qingsong and the others came back, the kitchen came over to inform them that dinner was ready.
Everyone got up and went to the big kitchen.
The chefs only gave some of the dumplings and glutinous rice balls to the masters, but did not dare to let go of them all.
So at the beginning, everyone had a small bowl of glutinous rice balls. There were two round glutinous rice balls in it, but adding two more would not look very good.
The former was naturally made by the chef, while the latter was made by Long Baoer and the others.
Although they didn't look the same, they all tasted the same, and Long Baoer and others were praised several times.
A sumptuous dinner was prepared in the kitchen, thinking that General Xue and the others would come back after a palace banquet. But there are a lot of dishes to put together. With the addition of dumplings, it can be considered a heartwarming reunion dinner.
After the meal, the old lady hurriedly rushed a few people to have a rest. The few people didn't hold on and nodded to take a bath and rest.
From the day I left the capital, I had this heart in my stomach every day, especially when food and grass were in short supply in the middle of the day, I was really anxious.
Now he is finally back with all his beards and tails.
They went to rest.
Long Baoer and the others were also told by their adults to miss their parents and brothers, not to make any noise, and to let them have a good sleep first.
The children are very sensible. Even in a small yard far away, they subconsciously lower their voices when speaking, for fear of disturbing them.
Long Baoer even got a lot of delicious food from the kitchen to feed Yingying and the little white fox.
In the past, the two little pets spent the day together, playing and fussing from time to time, so they had company. So Long Baoer sent Ying over every day.
To be fair, neither of them was very happy, and because Long Baoer didn't understand, they scolded each other quite dirty.
Since returning to Uncle Zhenyuan's Mansion, Long Bao'er has eaten with everyone again. He can't let Ying and the little white fox join him when they eat together.
So now it has become Long Baoer and the others to deliver food to the two little guys after they finish eating.
The lunch meal today was good. In addition to the usual meals, there were also extra glutinous rice balls and dumplings.
This is something Sakura has never eaten before, not even the little white fox has eaten it often.
It was raised together with Xu Yingying, so when Xu Yingying was growing up, the little white fox ate all cooked food.
It was also because it was used to eating cooked food, so it couldn't get used to those bloody raw meats.
During the years of cultivation in the mountains, he always ate mountain springs and wild fruits to satisfy his hunger.
Unexpectedly, one day, it would be adopted by humans and fed three meals a day.
