Chapter 165 Trouble comes when you are first attracted (8)

After the water boiled, she put the raw chestnuts into the pot and added a small amount of salt. After covering the pot for about five minutes, she took out the chestnuts and cut them open with a knife. When she peeled them off with her hands, the chestnut skins followed the chestnut shells. fell off.

After all the chestnut skins were removed, Mo Yan put them in a steamer and steamed them. They were steamed in a while. After cutting these chestnuts into small pieces with a knife, they grind them complicatedly with a rolling pin until the chestnuts turn into fine powder, and then mix them with glutinous rice flour and flour in a ratio of three to two to one.

Add an appropriate amount of spiritual spring water and put some honey in it. After mixing it repeatedly, the dough was made into a round cake and placed in a steamer. After the water boiled, put the steamer on, and soon you could smell the sweet smell of chestnuts.

The sweet fragrance of chestnuts is very strong. As soon as the steam comes out, Xiaohua can't wait. She licks her lips and runs around the steamer. Listening to the gurgling sound in the pot, she can't wait to open the steamer with her paws and take a look. .

Turning on the fire and steaming for a while, Mo Yan removed the remaining firewood. After the chestnut cake in the steamer cooled down, she picked up a knife and cut the whole chestnut cake into matchbox-sized pieces, and placed several large plates on clean plates.

Here, this plate is all yours. Putting a plate in front of Xiaohua, this guys greedy saliva had already flowed all over the floor.

Little Hua let out a "oooh" and rushed forward excitedly. Opening her mouth, one-fifth of the plate of chestnut cake was gone.

Mo Yan smiled and tasted a piece himself. Well, it tastes better than the chestnut cake in the pastry shop. Not to mention not so sweet, the fragrance of chestnut is more intense.

One person and one wolf have eaten enough, and they leave the space. Mo Yan was lying on the bed thinking about something, while Xiao Hua lay obediently on the cotton mattress under the bed board, smacking her lips and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, Mo Yan took Xiaohua and Li Zhong to Liuyang Village. In the past few days, the courtyard walls of the new house were being erected, and the yard had to be decorated. Some details would be slightly changed, so she had to go and see it before she felt reassured.

Arrived at the construction site, Mo Yan took out the cloth bag containing chestnut cake from the space, hung it around Xiaohua's neck, and asked her to take it to Dabai to eat.

Xiaohua stuck out her tongue and nuzzled her, then walked away in a hurry.

Mo Yan stood in front of the new house, looking at the prototype of the new house, and felt a strange sense of satisfaction in her heart: From now on, this will be her home!

Yaner, come here, dad has something to discuss with you.

Mo Qingze stood in front of the hay shed and waved to Mo Yan. When Mo Yan came closer, he took out a piece of paper and said, "These are the days that dad asked the old people in the village to help calculate. These days are very good." , which day do you think is the best time to choose the beam?"

Upper beam? Only then did Mo Yan remember that there was such a thing as going up to the beam.

The upper beam is like a crown for people, used to connect the relationship between the temple structure itself, heaven and earth, gods and people. The people pay great attention to this. Not only do they have to choose the right day, but they also have a series of complicated rituals that cannot be taken lightly.

Mo Yan took the paper from her father's hand and looked at the dates on it. She found that the nearest day was May 26th, followed by June 6th, June 22nd, etc. Without thinking, she pointed at the sixth day. The sixth day of the lunar month: "The groundbreaking for our house was on the sixth day of March, and the beams will be installed on the sixth day of June."

Mo Qingze smiled and nodded. He also liked this day, "Okay, there won't be much to do on the construction site. In two days, dad will prepare for the beam installation."

Mo Yan nodded. Being on the beam was a big deal, and it was not something that a woman's family or a girl's family could just do. Her father was already very enlightened when he dared to let her go to the beam.

By the way, Dad, after the beams are put up, the house still needs to be painted. When can we move in?
