God did not hear the students’ prayers.
Because the rain turned from moderate to heavy, and then from heavy to heavy, it rained intermittently until the day before the holiday at the end of the month.
On the afternoon of the day before the holiday, it finally stopped raining for several days.
Yan Xingxuan never came again because the road was difficult to walk in rainy weather.
Xiao Nianzhi has been fooling Aunt Yu over and over again recently.
Who wants to go through the trouble on a rainy day?
Therefore, it is impossible to just ask for leave for late-night snacks.
Students:.
Let’s just say, for God’s sake, you should play more games in the middle of summer.
It’s the autumn harvest, but it’s been raining for several days, which is terrible!
Of course, the most important thing is that they can't eat their favorite food.
Just, uncomfortable!
Tomorrow is a holiday, so I have to finish school early today.
Master Xiao Nianzhi and his apprentice had already packed up, and Aunt Yu went directly back to Zhuangzi at noon.
Of course, when I left, I took with me a variety of dried fruit snacks, two portions of bread, one portion of taro balls, and two cups of milk tea.
After the rain subsided yesterday, Xiao Nianzhi and she finished it together, and some of them were made fresh this morning.
Now it tastes just right fresh and delicious.
Aunt Yu went back to Zhuangzi with satisfaction, but Xiao Nianzhi still had to wait for Xiao Siye and others to come together.
After the students left one after another, Xiao Siye and Xiao Zhou and his son could also leave together.
The three of them were sitting in a carriage. Seeing that it was still early, they took a detour to the nearby Qingsong Academy to pick up Xiao Qing.
Xiao Nianzhi was a little surprised when he suddenly went to pick someone up this time.
She thought that Xiao Siye should have said hello in advance, otherwise Xiao Qing might have rented a mule cart or donkey cart directly back to the city with his classmates.
The distance is not too far, even if you are riding the slowest donkey cart, you will definitely be home before dinner.
When their carriage arrived at Qingsong Academy, the sky had begun to darken.
Xiao Qing was talking to his classmates. When he saw his carriage coming, he hurriedly said something to his classmates, and then quickly walked towards the carriage.
Xiao Nianzhi curiously picked up a corner of the curtain to take a look, and found that Zhang Hanshan and several classmates were preparing to get into the carriage on the side. They should have been rented by several people.
Probably feeling something, Zhang Hanshan turned his head and took a look.
Then, he met Xiao Nianzhi's eyes.
The two people were a little far apart, and Xiao Nianzhi couldn't see each other's expression clearly.
However, Zhang Hanshan quickly turned his head. His actions revealed a guilty conscience.
Before Xiao Nianzhi could think about it, the other party turned his head in his direction and gave a student salute.
At this time, Zhang Hanshan's pupils were shaken first, and then he felt endless guilt.
Although he didn't know about the story at first.
But before giving the gift, he didn't open it and check it carefully. It was originally his dereliction of duty.
Moreover, this gift was given to a girl’s family.
At this time, Zhang Hanshan was almost ready to grab the ground with his head.
What did he do?
He gave a storybook like that to a girl's house.
This is simply...
To say that it is insulting to gentlemen is just to show his face.
Zhang Hanshan was a little embarrassed, but he was not irresponsible. He must find a way to explain this matter clearly.
But...
It's embarrassing to mention this matter. If it is really said openly, it will affect Xiao Nianzhi to some extent, right?
Zhang Hanshan didn't know what to do next.
However, first give Xiao Nianzhi a student salute to show that he was wrong. There should be no problem, right?
His salute was enough to put Xiao Nianzhi out of trouble.
What does it mean?
Before Xiao Nianzhi could figure it out, Xiao Qing had already got on the carriage: "Sister!"
The pleasant and cheerful tone made Xiao Nianzhi draw his attention back.
She pursed her lips and smiled gently: "Third brother."
Xiao Qing responded obediently: "Hey, third brother is here!"
After answering, Xiao Qing laughed again. She looked silly, but very cute.
His smile made the atmosphere in the car relaxed. Xiao Zhou couldn't help but curl his lips. Xiao Siye, who was thinking about something, also laughed.
The atmosphere in the carriage is just right. The family sits and talks a few words from time to time. The occasional silence does not make the atmosphere feel too awkward. Instead, it feels very warm and indifferent.
In contrast, Zhang Hanshan, who was sitting in a carriage with his classmates, was worried all the way, and his brows were slightly knitted together, and he did not let go until he got off the carriage.
He thought that if his father knew that he had given such a book to Xiao's sister...
Okay, just thinking about it makes my butt and legs start to hurt!
Everyone in the house was very happy when Xiao Nianzhi came back.
Walnut couldn't speak, but he was busy helping and serving.
I really wanted to put Xiao Nianzhi on the chair and do nothing. Even the food was fed directly into her mouth without her having to do anything.
Xiao Nianzhi was still a little uncomfortable with this.
Dazao was chattering and still talking a lot: "Some flowers have been planted in the yard recently, and they are blooming beautifully. I have collected some of them, and let the eldest daughter see if they are suitable for fragrance and flower tea."
"Girl, I recently learned two new tricks. Together with Walnut, I made new knots for you."
"Girl, Aunt Qin and I bought two big fat geese two days ago. They are still raising them in the backyard. We are just waiting for you to come back and kill them to eat."
…
Aunt Qin has already picked up the shovel and started frying.
Xiao Nianzhi had given guidance several times before, so Aunt Qin's cooking skills had improved a lot.
The meals cooked today are definitely much more delicious than before.
What's more, Xiao Nianzhi also brought her new chicken essence back.
With this thing to freshen it up, the taste will be much better.
Walnut and the others made new knots, five in total, with various patterns, and the colors were mostly cyan and light blue, which were clear but not too fancy.
After Xiao Nianzhi thanked them, he shared some dried fruit snacks with them.
Everyone was busy for a while, then cleaned up and went to have dinner.
Aunt Qin made chicken, stewed meat, and cooked duck soup today.
In addition, there are several exquisite stir-fries, with a combination of meat and vegetables, which look delicious and nutritious.
The staple food is pancakes, steamed buns and rice.
When eating, Xiao Nianzhi tasted it carefully. The old duck soup was a little off in texture, probably due to lack of time. The other dishes were very good.
After eating, Aunt Qin came to listen to her opinions.
This is a down-to-earth aunt who is willing to listen to the truth. After Xiao Nianzhi tried her best before, she now dares to express different opinions openly.
Sometimes, it’s not necessarily because the food is not delicious, but because everyone has different taste preferences.
Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi discussed it with her as objectively as possible.
After a lot of trouble, Xiao Nianzhi was ready to pack up and go to bed.
After eating, Xiao Nianzhi told Xiao Siye that he had to purify alcohol.
After hearing this, the other party said that he knew and would ask for an order to give her a holiday.
In this way, Xiao Nianzhi can go to sleep peacefully.
