Chapter 478: Making Zongzi

(Four leaves roll and ask for pink, howling.)

What I got back from outside? Where did I get back? There are people with a personality like Chen family in the village who are good friends with her? Xia Feier was a little puzzled, but she didn't think much about it and took Xiaohua and Sang Ju to Yuanxiang's house.

Because Yuan Xiang'er is getting married tomorrow, Yuan Xiang's house is very lively, and all the female relatives on her grandmother's side have come over, and everyone on Yuan Xiang's side knows Xia Fei'er. Seeing that Xia Fei'er is coming, Yuan Xiang's grandmother and a few concubines came over to say hello.

Grandma Yuanxiang is a cheerful and enthusiastic person. As soon as Xia Feier came in, she pulled Feier to her side and chatted enthusiastically, saying that she would thank Xia Feier for taking care of Yuanxiang's family so much. It was thanks to Xia Feier that Yuanxiang had lived so well in recent years. Otherwise, Yuanxiang would not be able to marry such a glorious place.

After that, Fei'er's grandmother pulled Xia Fei'er up and down for a while, and smiled at Gao who was standing beside her and said, "Big girl, Fei'er looks like she is not young anymore. I don't know if she is engaged. If not, I will tell her that the marriage is good. How about several rich families in my village have not married yet?"

For some reason, Gao didn't reply immediately after hearing Grandma Yuan Xiang's words. He just looked at Xia Fei'er with a complicated expression and never made a sound.

After hearing her grandma's words, Yuanxiang hurriedly held her grandma with a smile and said, "Grandma, don't be addicted to being a matchmaker. Our Feier is already a family, and the man and boy are still a wealthy family in the capital. They will come back to marry her soon. Where can the rich people in your village compete with others?"

"Yes, grandma. My brother Tiezhu is not only good at home, but also has a good family. He also likes my sister Feier very much." Shuixiang immediately responded.

Grandma Yuanxiang knew a little about Fei'er's family, but she didn't know much about it. She was confused by the rich family and Tiezhu. She remembered that Tiezhu was a brother of Fei'er's family, so why did she talk about it again?

However, when Yuan Xiang heard that Fei'er already had someone else, Yuan Xiang's grandma didn't say much, but just smiled and looked at Fei'er and said, "That's great. That's great. This girl is a lucky person at first glance."

"Yes, there are good fortunes and good fortunes. The lucky girl is going to learn to make rice dumplings. Let's go make rice dumplings and play with it." Yuan Xiang said with a smile while pushing Fei'er and the others into the house.

Gao looked at the backs of Feier and Yuanxiang and sighed softly.

Last time when Xia Fugui came back, someone suddenly came to the Lan family. When they found out, they thought that Xia Tiezhu sent someone to propose marriage, but later they heard Xia Fugui come back and say that Tiezhu and Feier were broken. Xia Fugui also asked her to say that if there were suitable people nearby and asked her to keep an eye on Xia Feier, Feier might have to find someone again.

Although Xia Fugui said that, Gao was a veteran. She also saw Tiezhu's kindness to Fei'er in the past. She probably knew that something had happened between Tiezhu and Fei'er, but no matter what, she didn't understand these things, and she still didn't dare to find someone for Fei'er rashly.

After coming back this time, Xia Fugui had not had time to meet her, and she didn't know what was going on, so she couldn't reply when she heard her mother say that.

But she was also worried that Fei'er, the girl, had obviously something wrong with Tiezhu and Fei'er. She was not worried that Fei'er would not be able to get married if Tiezhu didn't come back. She was just like Xia Fugui, worried that these two people would be unlucky if they dragged Fei'er for a long time.

She always thought that Fei'er was extremely smart and could not defeat her. If she was not a girl's house, she would not know how promising she would be. But she didn't expect that she would encounter such a thing. This woman was afraid of meeting the wrong person.

If Fei'er really delays Tiezhu for a few years, and then there will be no result with Tiezhu, it will be difficult. So if this girl is looking for someone, don't look for a good one, just live a safe and stable life.

When Grandma Feier heard Gao sigh, she asked her what was going on. Gao didn't say anything, shook her head lightly, and went into the house to teach a few girls to make rice dumplings.

When it comes to making rice dumplings, Xia Feier herself knows how to do it. In her previous life, they also had to make rice dumplings and celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival. Fei'er's mother's technique of making rice dumplings is famous in the village. Xia Feier naturally learned a trick or two. Although her rice dumplings were not as good as her mother's mother, she was also able to make it very good.

However, Xia Feier found that the shape and taste of people who made rice dumplings at this time were completely different from that in their place. Xia Feier was a little curious about how they made rice dumplings, so she thought about taking a look.

Although the shape of the zongzi here is different from that of Xia Feier, the method is similar. It should be said that no matter what shape of zongzi is wrapped, this method will change in all directions. Xia Feier just saw Gao's demonstration and mastered the trick.

First fold the rice dumpling leaves on a narrow edge, then roll them up, and the rice dumpling leaves become a funnel shape, then add glutinous rice and put things inside. Gao’s two types are prepared here. After adding the things, wrap a layer of rice dumpling leaves outside and a layer of rice dumpling leaves outside. Without wrapping the small funnel, it becomes a big funnel.

Then add glutinous rice, don’t add too much filling, and fold the rice dumpling leaves on both sides inwards at about 7 minutes, fold the small sharp corners facing you, and turn the rice dumpling leaves outside. Tie it tightly with a cotton rope. This way, a rice dumpling is wrapped, which is about the same size as a fist.

Xia Feier's rice dumplings in her previous life were actually simpler than this. The previous steps were the same, but the steps after adding things were a little different. They added things at one time, usually with bean paste or pork belly.

After adding, cover the rice dumpling leaves directly, but there are some tricks when covering them. You must make sharp corners on both sides of the rice dumplings appear to be considered successful. Then tie them with cotton thread or fresh mats. After wrapping the rice dumplings, they look like a three-dimensional triangle, which is commonly known as the sheep horn rice dumplings. They are much more delicate than the rice dumplings made by Gao.

Moreover, Gao's rice dumplings were too big. If someone had a small appetite, they would probably not finish eating one. So Xia Feier tried to make some rice dumplings from her previous life. Gao and others were very surprised when they saw it and asked Xia Feier where they learned it and how she could make it so beautiful.

Xia Feier knew that they would ask these questions, but since she came here, she had done many things that others were surprised about, and this was not bad. As they heard them ask, Xia Feier didn't explain much, just said that she saw it in the book and learned it when she found it fun.

The girls always like to be influenced by new things. Seeing that the rice dumplings made by Xia Feier look good, they don’t learn from Gao anymore, they all ask Xia Feier to teach them to make sheep horn rice dumplings. However, the rice dumplings seem simple, and it is not a simple thing to really make a rice dumpling that looks similar. A few girls learned for an afternoon, but in the end, the rice dumplings were not made, and most of the rice dumplings were destroyed.

In the end, Gao became annoyed and drove away several girls. He asked Shuixiang to call Qian. She and Qian quickly made rice dumplings.

Gao didn't want the girls to do their jobs, so the girls took Fei'er and others to Yuanxiang room. The Yuanxiang room was full of festiveness, and the words of joy were covered everywhere. Even the quilts used and the teacup on the table were pasted. Xia Fei'er wanted to laugh a little, and the quilts were pasted on them. So, don't Yuanxiang need to sleep tonight?

Xia Feier just thought about it this way, but she didn't expect that she was really thinking it right.

When it was dark, Xia Feier had sent Sang Ju back to cook, but Gao said that there were rice dumplings left and right at night and could not eat much, so he called Xia Feier's family to come to her house for dinner. Xia Fugui and others were also helping Yuanxiang's house to do work in the afternoon, so they all ate here.

After dinner, Gao and Feier told Feier and Sang Ju to accompany Yuanxiang here until tomorrow's matchmaker came to pick up Yuanxiang. Xia Feier didn't understand the custom of marrying her daughter at this time. She thought that these people should be similar to the bridesmaid group in her previous life, and just accompany Yuanxiang. She would have a nap tonight and send Yuanxiang out tomorrow.

But I knew that Fei'er and the girls were tired chatting in the house. They all shouted that they would go to bed to sleep. When Gao and Qian suddenly rushed in with several people, saying that the rooster was just crowing. According to the custom, the good-fate woman in the village was coming to take Yuanxiang.

So someone immediately came to take a hairpin for Yuan Xiang, saying that it was a hairpin, just to comb the bride's hair while saying some auspicious words. In fact, the good fortune woman said the same thing in the end, such as the same thing, such as the couple's harmony, but she talked about it almost an hour.

Then Gao and the good-flying woman whispered something again. In short, Xia Feier and others were standing aside and leaning against each other while they were whispering.

I don’t know how long I had been sleeping, but suddenly I heard Gao calling Xia Feier. Feier hadn’t forgotten that her task was to accompany Yuan Xiang. She stood up with a "bang". The girls who were sleeping on her were no longer supported and all fell to the ground. The sound of shouting oh, which made everyone in the room laugh. This laughter made the girls’ sleepy laugh.

Gao walked over and rubbed Fei'er's faces, and then smiled and said to Fei'er: "Have you woke up? I'll put on makeup for you Sister Yuanxiang when I woke up. Sister Yuanxiang said you have done it well and you must go."

"Okay, Sister Fei'er, Sister Fei'er made it for her last time, but it looks so good. It's much better than the good fortune-teller in the village. When I get married in the future, Sister Fei'er will also have to do it for me." Shuixiang knew that the good fortune-teller was still in the house, so she made her voice a little smaller.
