632 Happy Is Everyone Together (4/4, Add More Rewards For I Am Drunk Moon)

Chapter 632 Happiness is that everyone is together

In his previous life, Yang Yi had no idea of ​​the importance of the Winter Solstice festival to the Chinese people, let alone him, many people living in the city did not celebrate this festival, but regarded it as a solar term.

But in fact, this festival has a long history. It is not just as simple as solar terms. During the Zhou and Qin Dynasties, the winter solstice was still the "Spring Festival" at that time, and important activities for ancestor worship or family dinner were often selected on the winter solstice. Even after the winter solstice and the first month are separated, people still regard the winter solstice as a new year!

In the Tang and Song Dynasties, or dynasties similar to the world, this festival was also a day to worship the ancestors (sacrifice with four homophones). For the emperor, it was to hold a ceremony in the suburbs. For ordinary people, this festival was Heaven is to pay homage to parents and elders...

Not to mention the similar histories of the two worlds, Yang Chonggui and Dong Yue'e attached great importance to this festival.

Early in the morning, Dong Yue'e also brought Zheng Shuyi and Yang Qing, asked Yang Yi to lead the way, and sent her to the vegetable market to buy all kinds of ingredients, as well as flour, glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour, etc. for making noodles, pumpkin pie and dumplings. Wait.

According to the custom of Yang Yi and their hometown, the winter solstice is to eat noodles and pumpkin pie, but Murphy said that if he wants to eat dumplings, this little wish must be fulfilled.

And Yang Chonggui also asked Yang Yi to prepare incense candles early, and when they came back from shopping, three men went south to worship their ancestors at about ten o'clock in the morning. The name tells the ancestors, I hope the ancestors will bless the children to grow up healthy and happy.

It's a bit superstitious, but the moral is good, isn't it?

The busiest time is near noon, when everyone sits around the dining room table, making pumpkin pie and making dumplings together.

In order to let Xixi feel the atmosphere of traditional Chinese festivals, Yang Yi also asked her for leave on this day. So, when everyone gathered around the dining table, the little girl came over curiously, and looked at her father for a while, and her grandmother for a while.

"Xixi, where's mom? Why don't you accompany mom? How boring is mom alone?" Yang Yi asked Xixi with a smile.

The little girl was watching her grandma use a spoon to crush the steamed pumpkin into pumpkin puree, and answered her father's words absentmindedly: "Mama, where's Mama?"

"Mama is here!" Murphy walked from the living room with a smile in his arms.

Xixi regained her senses at this moment, she felt inexplicably interesting, giggled, pointed to her mother and said, "Yes, Mama is here!"

"Why did you come here? It's a mess here." Yang Yi was worried that Murphy would be uncomfortable after standing for a long time, so she quickly wiped the flour off her hands, brought her a chair, and brought a warm cushion from the living room to let her sit on it.

"You also said I was bored. Come here to sit with everyone. Although I can't help you much, I can still support you all." Murphy sat down with a smile and gently pulled up Xiaojiao softly. hands, and called in a false low voice, "Come on, come on!"

When Dong Yue'e saw this scene, her eyes narrowed with laughter. If Xiaojiao said it himself, maybe grandma would be happier.

Of course, Xiaojiao still doesn't even know how to call out 666...cough, little baby. So he could only react to some of his mother's voices, for example, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, wondering if it meant happiness.

Zheng Shuyi looked enviously at the interaction between the mother and son, and she was probably thinking that she and Yang Qing would have a baby soon!

But I haven't gotten pregnant yet!

The adults were talking and laughing, but Xixi paid more attention to what they were doing. After turning around, the little girl finally returned to her father's side and watched her knead the dough.

"Would you like to knead the dough with Dad? That's what we'll use to eat dumplings at that time." Yang Yi asked softly when she saw that she was very interested.

"Okay!" Xixi nodded happily and answered crisply.

The face has been kneaded almost by Yang Yi. It is not sticky and powdery like before, but very smooth. Xixi presses it with her little finger, only to feel cool and soft.

In order for the little girl to reach, Yang Yi also made her stand on a small chair. Xixi turned her head, raised her head slightly, and said to her father in surprise, "It's like plasticine."

Yang Yi smiled and said, "It's still a little bit different. The plasticine is a little softer, and the surface is a little harder. Come on, just like your father, press it with your palm."

Yang Yi taught her how to knead the dough. Of course, with the little girl's current strength, she couldn't handle such a large piece of dough. I saw that Xixi could only press down the dough a little bit with the strength of her milk, but it was printed on it. own palm print.

Xixi didn't feel particularly frustrated. She was overjoyed, pointing to her handprint and saying to her father, "Baba, look at it."

"Yes, continue!" Yang Yi encouraged the little girl, he took over and finished kneading the dough, then put it aside and continued to let Xixi play.

After a while, the little girl who enjoyed it so much that she didn't know when her face was stained with flour marks.

Of course, just like her blood-stained demeanor, the little girl's face was stained with flour, also declaring that she was working hard to help and not being lazy.

"Jiaojiao, look at my sister, how powerful my sister is!" Murphy said when he saw it and hugged Xiaojiao cheerfully, holding his butt with one hand and his body with the other.

Of course, Jiahao didn't understand anything, and probably couldn't see her sister who was so far away, and she still looked confused.

On the contrary, Xixi responded positively. She turned around excitedly, grabbed her father's clothes, and waved hello to Jiaojiao: "Brother, do you want to help too?"

Yang Yi looked down at the clothes that had been stained with flour by Xixi's little hands, feeling a little helpless.

But Murphy had a good time with Xixi, and saw Murphy imitating the tone of a child and said in falsetto, "I'm sorry, sister, I'm still very young and I can't help."

"Hee hee!" Not only Xixi, but several adults were amused.

"Wait a minute, I'll take a camera and take a picture." Yang Yi couldn't help but said when he saw this scene.

He hurriedly ran to the study and brought a camera and a tripod. He first took a few pictures of Xixi kneading the dough, as well as a smiley face of a little girl with flour prints on her face.

Then Yang Yi set up the tripod, set up the position, selected the angle, set the camera, set the time to delay the photo, and said, "Let's take a photo together!"

As the camera snapped several times, the family sat around with smiles on their faces, and the photos of preparing food for the winter solstice were recorded. Murphy and Xiaojiao were also photographed in the camera. It was only the last one. Zhang and Xiaojiao were frightened because everyone was shouting "eggplant" and opened their mouths to cry.

These are some contrasting photos, but they are also more interesting and full of warmth.

However, after the filming, they remembered.

And Yang Huan!

"When will Huanhuan be back?" Zheng Shuyi asked with a smile.

Before he finished speaking, Yang Yi's phone rang, and Yang Huan's phone rang.

"Brother, I'm at the door. You call the security guard and tell me to let me in." Yang Huan said without knowing it.

"Huanhuan, come quickly, we are all waiting for you!" Zheng Shuyi smiled, and after a few meters, she shouted to Yang Huan on her mobile phone.

"Little aunt, come quickly!" Xixi also giggled and shouted along with her aunt.

After high school, there is a lot of time outside, and the winter solstice basically rarely passes. Next Friday, the 22nd is also the winter solstice this year. Remember to eat dumplings or noodles with your family for the festival~
