Chapter 127 Warm New Year’s Eve, one’s loneliness
After watching his father-in-law and mother-in-law leave, Li Miao let out a sigh of relief, finally getting it done.
He withdrew his eyes, and just looked at each other with Zhe Xinyi. He blinked and said with assurance: "Xinyi, what I just said is true. I promise not to lie at all."
Zhe Xinyi said: "Even if it is true as you said, don't you have any thoughts in your heart?"
A fairy with a turbulent smile, a fairy with long legs, a fairy with flaming red lips...
Oops, what are you thinking about at this time? Li Miao thought to herself, "Oops." When he was about to say something quickly, it was already too late.
"Humph."
Zhe Xinyi, who was always paying attention to his expression, snorted and left.
"Myolie!"
Li Miao almost gritted his teeth.
The little maid who was sneaking away froze, and then she quickly squeezed out a flattering smile on her small round face and hugged Li Miao's arm.
"Master Li, I have recently learned a new tea-making technique. The lady has not tasted it yet. Do you want me to make it for you to drink now? It tastes very good."
……
Time passes quietly, and New Year’s Eve, which is not far away, has quietly arrived.
"The lantern on the right is too high, it needs to be hung lower."
"Oops, it's too low, please go higher."
"Well, it's good this time. The height is just right. No, the lantern on the left is a bit to the left. Move it to the right."
"It's not enough, move a little to the right, it's too much, go back a little, it's too much..."
"Forget it, come down and I'll go up and do it."
Seeing that the young man could not place the lantern where she thought it was more suitable, Myolie asked the young man to come down and planned to do it herself.
"Sister Xing'er, be careful."
Seeing the girl about to climb up the bamboo ladder, the boy showed a worried look.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problem."
The girl said there was no problem at all and climbed up the bamboo ladder.
The girl had climbed to the position where the young man was. She stretched out her hand to touch the lantern, but found that her height seemed not quite enough. Even if she raised her toes, it was still not enough, so she subconsciously chose to step up a step.
"Ah!"
However, one of them missed the step without paying attention, and he suddenly fell down and screamed.
The young man below was shocked and quickly reached out to catch it.
However, there was a figure who was one step faster than him and caught the girl with great precision, it was Li Miao.
It turned out that Li Miao happened to be passing by here and happened to see this scene. He was immediately startled and hurried over as fast as possible, just in time to catch it.
There was no painful feeling like falling to the ground as expected. Instead, she fell into a warm and comfortable embrace. In confusion, Myolie opened her closed eyes, just in time to blame Li Miao.
Their eyes met.
"So careless!"
When the little maid was about to say something, she heard Li Miao say something again.
"Well...it feels a lot heavier."
The little maid quickly retorted: "No, I have eaten a lot less during this period."
"Really? I don't believe it."
Li Miao shrugged his shoulders and put the little maid down with a dissatisfied look on her face.
Then, he climbed up the bamboo ladder by himself and continued Myolie’s actions just now.
"How is it? Is this location okay?"
"Well, Mr. Li, this position is just right."
The boy on the side: "..."
He felt a little aggrieved, and even wanted to cry. Isn't this position the same as the one he just posted? There is no difference!
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li, the master and his wife said they have something to ask you."
Just when I got off the bamboo ladder, I happened to see Xiuhe running towards this side, waving her little hands constantly.
Xiuhe did not go back to her hometown. According to her wishes, she had already gone back once during the Mid-Autumn Festival and there was no need to go back again on New Year's Eve.
After all, she had been sold to Zhefu by her family a few years ago...
After she ran over, Li Miao asked with some confusion: "What happened?"
Xiuhe said breathlessly: "I don't know."
So, Li Miao had no choice but to go to Zhe Junyan and his wife's small courtyard out of curiosity, and Xing'er and Xiuhe followed.
Young man: "..."
He only felt that he was a little messy in the cold wind, and he felt as if he had become a transparent person.
Also...didn’t I say that after hanging the lanterns here, there are other places to hang the lanterns?
Sister Xing'er, you haven't told me where to hang the lanterns yet!
......
Seeing the ground ink, brush, and blank couplets, Li Miao immediately understood why Zhe Junyan had called him over.
As expected, when he saw Li Miao coming, Zhe Junyan smiled and said: "Sanshui, come here and help write a few couplets."
Naturally, Li Miao would not refuse. After thinking about it for a while, he started writing.
Seeing that he had started writing, Zhe Junyan, Zhe Liushi, Zhe Xinyi and others all gathered around.
Spring breeze, spring rain, spring scenery, new year, new scenery and new home.
Unparalleled blessings come today, and misfortunes do not come alone but come yesterday.
It's a sad year, it's a sad year, it's a sad year, it's a year, it's a year, it's a year, it's a year, it's a year, it's a year, it's a year.
......
Seeing this pair of couplets that were no worse than the last pair appearing one after another, Zhe Junyan couldn't help but admire and said: "Sanshui is worthy of being the top scholar. His calligraphy is good, and his couplets are even better. This is probably
This is the best couplet I have ever seen!"
Mrs. Zheliu looked at Li Miao with a look that became more and more pleasing to her eyes. Then she told Li Miao and Zhe Xinyi: "Sanshui, Xinyi, I will leave the couplet to you two later."<
/p>
Naturally, the first thing to do when posting couplets is to boil them into paste.
So, under the leadership of Li Miao, Zhe Xinyi, Xing'er, and Xiuhe followed Li Miao and walked toward the kitchen.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Li Miao started a fire first, then poured all the water brought by Xiuhe into the pot, and then poured one-third of the water into the pot and the flour Xing'er found.
Finally, he handed Zhe Xinyi a pair of chopsticks and said to her: "Wait a moment, you keep stirring in one direction, and you can't stop until I tell you to stop."
This workload is not small. Myolie and Xiuhe may not be able to endure it until the end, so they can only leave it to Zhe Xinyi.
As for him, he is naturally responsible for watching the fire. If you want to make a good paste, it is necessary to control the size of the fire.
As Zhe Xinyi uses chopsticks to stir gently in one direction, you can clearly see that the concentration of the flour soup is getting thicker and thicker.
Gradually, as time goes by, you can see some small bubbles starting to form in the noodle soup powder.
Seeing this, Li Miao called to Zhe Xinyi to stop and asked her to hand the chopsticks to him.
Use chopsticks to gently pick it up and it can already be drawn.
Li Miao nodded with satisfaction and continued the Xinyi action just now.
When it was almost done, Fang stopped. At this point, a pot of homemade paste appeared in the pot, which looked a little tempting and even had a faint aroma.
Gulu!
The swallowing sound was so obvious that Li Miao and others discovered the maker immediately.
Facing the gaze, Xing'er's pretty face turned red, and she said weakly: "Mr. Li, this paste looks delicious, can I eat it?"
Li Miao: "..."
Zhe Xinyi: "..."
Xiuhe: "..."
"It's made with flour and should be edible. Do you want a bowl?" Li Miao asked with some uncertainty.
"Okay!"
