Chapter 99 Lantern Festival (2)
"Uh-huh!"
The three little guys nodded sharply with their eyes shining, as if they were afraid that if they were a little slower, the adults would regret it.
The lantern festival was held in the evening, which did not affect the Mo family's business. On the fifteenth day, the Mo family's business continued as usual. When they learned that the Mo family was going to Qushui to watch the lanterns in the evening, Lin Da, who had children at home, was also very moved.
Just thinking that Liuyang Village was so far from the city and they were not extravagant enough to stay in an inn in the city for one night, they had to give up the idea.
Because it was the Lantern Festival, the family usually got together to eat Lantern Festival, so Mo Yan went to a rice store and bought a lot of glutinous rice flour, and gave it to about three kilograms of glutinous rice flour to each of Lin Da's dozen people, and asked them to use the remaining thirty pounds. Duojin was taken back to Liuyang Village and distributed to Zhang Dayou and others.
Lin Da and others were surprised and happy, and didnt know how to be grateful.
Glutinous rice is expensive, and ground glutinous rice flour is even more expensive. Before I could escape, my family only had to buy a little glutinous rice flour and wrap it with steamed sweet potatoes for the Lantern Festival every year.
Such white glutinous rice noodles are given away on demand, and only the kind-hearted Mo family can make them.
Mo Yan accepted their thanks with a smile, and did not forget to hammer it: "You sincerely help my family with things, so of course I won't treat you badly. This little thing is not worth anything."
Lin Da and the others naturally understand the meaning behind the words. Fortunately, they themselves have no bad intentions and are eager to work hard and stay in the Mo family to work.
Lin Yong helped the Mo family a lot, so Mo Yan naturally took this opportunity to thank him, and asked Lin Da to bring some prepared Lantern Festivals and an old hen from the space to him.
As for Lao Motou and the others, Mo Yan simply ignored them.
After the Chinese New Year, Mo Yongfu didnt come to help again for unknown reasons, and Mo Yan didnt ask. When it came to the old Mo family, the only ones she cared about were Mo Wu and Sannier Xiao Shitou. She was determined not to care about the others.
The villagers of Liuyang Village each have a strong point in their hearts. Compared with the attitudes and practices of the two families towards each other a year ago, Lao Motou's family was completely suppressed.
Coupled with the fact that many people are eager to work for the Mo family, even if Mo Hong curses and insults the Mo family all day long and says all the bad things about them, no one will pay attention. This is exactly what Mo Yan wants.
In the evening, the two families sat together and ate Lantern Festival lively. It's just that there has been no news about his daughter. Li Zhong smiled a little reluctantly. In the past few months, his face has always been slightly sad, and even his hair has turned a lot whiter.
Mo Qingze took the opportunity to ask Li Zhong to go with him. Li Zhong couldn't bear to brush off his kindness, and since his granddaughter was also going, he agreed.
So they cleared away the dishes, and each of them went back to their rooms and changed into clean clothes. Finally, they turned off the lights in the house, locked the gate and courtyard gate, and got into a donkey cart on the street, heading towards Qushui.
Qushui is a river that runs through Dongshi. The river is wide and can pass small boats. On both sides of the river are large and small shops, integrating eating, drinking and entertainment. It is a very famous commercial area in Beijing.
Every major festival such as the Shangyuan Festival, countless literati or arty people ride on painted boats and float on the meandering water, reciting poems and composing in a lively manner.
Today was no exception. By the time Mo Yan and the others got off the donkey cart, many people had gathered on the street. Exquisite painted boats were passing back and forth on the Qushui River, and the faint sound of silk and bamboo could still be heard.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, with only countless cold stars. However, because of the bright lanterns rising on the street, it seemed like daytime, and the lantern festival had already begun...
