Chapter 408

Li Yuezhu heard that her brother, who usually didn't talk much, became like an old woman again, and finally nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, he is far away in Xiliang. Even if I want to meet him, I can't."

Although Li Yuelan didn't like what her sister said, she felt that what she said was reasonable.

"Just listen to your brother. He will never harm you."

The two brothers and sister were busy in the kitchen, adding water, burning firewood, kneading noodles and making steamed buns, but they were very busy.

Li Yuezhu and Li Yuelan were born in poverty, so washing and cooking was not a problem. Before noon that day, the first basket of steamed buns had already been placed on the pot and steamed.

"Okay, I'll help you light the fire, and you go get to work quickly."

It was rare for Li Yuelan to enjoy the brother-sister relationship. The two of them were busy in the kitchen and did not need a maid to wait on them.

"Then I have to thank my brother. I can let the number one scholar help me burn firewood. This is my first job. I will definitely get it next year."

In rural areas, steamed steamed buns are also called steamed buns. After making the noodles, you have to wait for the noodles to rise before they can be steamed. Therefore, the steamed buns must be steamed on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, so that you can make a fortune in the coming year.

"Then you have to cherish this opportunity. Have you ever seen the No. 1 scholar go to the kitchen in person, holding a kitchen knife and talking about things with a little girl?"

The brother and sister were chatting happily.

When Mrs. Zhou returned home, she found that the brother and sister were steaming steamed buns in the kitchen.

"Ouch! No wonder people call you sister-in-law. You must be too courageous, damn girl. How can you earn the Chinese New Year steamed buns as soon as you say they are earned? If they are not steamed well then, the meaning will not be good.

It’s my fault too, why did you go out to buy candies? During the Chinese New Year, our family is inseparable from people. When I came back, I saw you two steaming the big buns in silence. How do you want me to say hello to you!"

"You said you just steamed steamed buns, but why did you get flour everywhere on your face and body? Even on the ground. How did my mother educate you before? Food is not easy to come by. There are still many people in this winter.

How can you let two of you waste it when you are suffering from cold and hunger?"

Mrs. Zhou kept talking non-stop, but she had no intention of blaming the two children.

"Yes, mother, we understand."

Steaming steamed buns is a technical job, and it can't be mastered by learning it once or twice. But when it comes to kneading dough, there are many girls who can't do it.

"Okay, you two, go out and play quickly. Didn't Yue Lan also say that she has a lot of entertainment that she didn't go to? Let's go out for a walk."

Li Yuezhu and Li Yuelan were kicked out of the kitchen directly.

Apart from the kitchen, I just looked at Li Yue'an, who was sitting in the sun eating sweets.

After being kicked out, Li Yuezhu helped his brother pat the flour on his body in the yard, and carefully wiped his face and hair with a wet towel before starting to clean himself up.

"Let me help you."

Li Yuezhu handed the towel in his hand to his brother and let him scratch his face.

Li Yuelan's actions seemed rough, but in fact she was very gentle. She wiped her sister's face carefully, and Xiao An couldn't stand it even while sitting on the steps.

"I said, brother, you are too biased, aren't you? The last time I played in the mud, I was covered in mud. I asked my brother to wipe it for me, but he didn't do it. Today, my sister only has some white powder on her face, and my brother just

Treated like this, is it true that boys are not as delicate as girls, or do older brothers prefer girls over boys?"

Xiao An, a little kid, didn't know what kind of injustice he had suffered outside. As soon as he came back, he sat on the steps and sulked alone. This time, it happened to his brothers and sisters.

"Hey, you damn boy, you're itchy again, aren't you? Can a boy be as delicate as a girl? You have the nerve to say this, so it's a good thing I didn't beat you up."

Li Yuezhu watched from the side in confusion, not knowing what the brothers were talking about about the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.

"Sure enough, my brother doesn't love me. We are both younger siblings, but my brother only loves my sister! Humph!"

When Li Yuelan arrived, she ignored her brother's strange anger and continued to wipe the white flour off her sister's body with a wet towel.

"How old are you, do you still need people to care about you? Now you still feel that you are too young. Your sister will still count on you to protect her in the future. Don't start chirping like a woman from here."

After hearing this, Xiao An felt even more aggrieved and remained silent.

Li Yuezhu could only smooth things over in the middle.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Yuezhu felt satisfied. With free time in the afternoon, Li Yuezhu went out again. This time he took the large pile of women's rings and gave them to Ye Song.

"Is this what you gave to my young master?"

"Yes, that's all."

"Okay, I will definitely deliver it."

"It doesn't matter much, the things inside are not important at all."

Li Yuezhu gave the wrapped small bundle to Ye Song. After Ye Song took it solemnly, he handed it to a short man with an ordinary expression next to him.

"Okay, I have nothing to do, so I wish you a Happy New Year in advance!"

"Happy New Year and all the best."

Li Yuezhu didn't expect Ye Song to give her a red envelope.

Sitting on the carriage home, Li Yuezhu opened the red envelope and found a few taels of silver inside.

"Master Ye is really considerate. The red envelope given to our girl should be quite big."

"It's not small, I'm quite satisfied with it."

Following Li Yuezhu out today was a maid named Xiao Tao.

Because of the New Year, the whole street is filled with a joyful atmosphere, and the big houses are decorated with lights and colorful decorations, creating a prosperous scene.

When she got home, her mother's steamed buns had been steamed. Mrs. Zhou asked her daughter to send some to the Chen family, which was a way of expressing her feelings.

Li Yuezhu had no choice but to send a basket of steamed buns to the Chen family.

"I don't know what my mother is thinking. There is no shortage of steamed buns in your family, so you still asked me to deliver them."

"I saw that my aunt did a good job. Although we just met yesterday, you haven't visited my house for a long time."

"Look what you said. I've only been here two days ago. How can I say I haven't been here for a long time?"

"Isn't that what I said? Every time you come here, you come and go in a hurry. You are either followed by Lin Xinghuai or someone else. We don't have time to talk to each other. It's hard for you to be alone offline.

Come on, I won't let you go so easily."

"Okay, okay, I will stay with you for another half day. I must go back before the sun sets."

"You are a sensible girl, but do you know that I have been very depressed at home these past few days, and I am not allowed to go out. I have lice all over my body."
