In half an hour, Shen Yizi prepared a feast. He moved the eight-immortal table in the house outside and served all kinds of delicious food on the table.

Seeing the purple crab in the middle that was as big as a washbasin, Luo Yaoyao was surprised, "This crab is so big!"

Shen Yizhi introduced with a smile: "This is the king crab I brought back from Qiandao Lake. It is fat, fragrant and smooth. It is delicious!"

Luo Yaoyao was drooling at what she said and couldn't help but take action.

Shen Yizhi: "Master, please don't worry. Elder Cui hasn't arrived yet."

She has already asked Kun San to invite him.

Before leaving, Cui Mi asked the old village chief to help him supervise the construction of the house. The house had been built a long time ago, and the furniture and furnishings inside were also ready. Shen Yizi also specially planted a lot of exotic flowers and plants in it, and set up dust-proof arrays, constant temperature arrays and other formations to ensure that the house was clean and refreshing.

As expected, as soon as Cui Mi stepped into the house, she liked it immediately. She turned around and was extremely satisfied.

We spent the day preparing for our new home.

When he heard Kun San calling him to eat, he immediately put down a book that he was about to put on the bookshelf, clapped his hands and walked out, "Let's go, let's go."

Without even closing the door, he walked swiftly towards Shen's house.

Kun San, who was left behind, couldn't help but smile and quickly followed.

As soon as he stepped into the Shen family's yard, Cui Mi smelled a strong fragrance, which made his stomach immediately feel upset.

Luo Yaoyao called out to him: "We've been waiting for you, come and sit down."

Cui Mi walked towards the sink: "I'll wash my hands and come right back."

The two old men sat at the top, Shen Yizhi's family of four sat next to them, Kun San and Qian Wu sat next to them, eight people at the table, facing the delicious food on the table, and started eating! After eating, I looked up and saw the sky full of stars.

After clearing away the empty plates and bowls on the table and carrying the table inside, several adults lay down comfortably on the recliners, enjoying the night breeze and chatting casually in the courtyard filled with faint fragrance. The atmosphere was relaxed and leisurely.

The two little kids were on their own, exploring the hidden little corners.

The next morning, Xiao San handed in the activity plan for the Dragon Boat Festival.

After reviewing it, Shen Yizhi gave full affirmation and praise, "Not bad, let's do it this way, but the prize amount for this dragon boat race can be adjusted appropriately."

For the first place, she changed the reward to 999 taels of silver, and added a Dragon Boat Festival gift on top of "one one-star ticket to Mingyue Villa and one 20% discount coupon to Mingyue Restaurant".

The second place winner will receive a reward of 888 taels, a coupon and a holiday gift.

The third place winner will receive a reward of 666 taels and a festival gift.

As for the rice dumpling eating competition, there is no threshold and everyone can participate. The ranking is determined by the number of rice dumplings eaten. The first place winner will be rewarded with a gold bowl, the second place winner will be rewarded with a silver bowl, and the third place winner will be rewarded with a bronze bowl. Everyone will receive a festival gift.

This competition does not involve any technical skills, and for many people, being able to eat zongzi to their heart's content is a very attractive benefit in itself, so the reward is lower.

Shen Yizhi mentioned to Xiao San that the college was going to hold a Cuju competition and asked him to include the details of the event.

Xiao San nodded, and soon handed in a perfect event planning proposal.

"Okay, let's do this. Notify Xia Ming and ensure security on the Dragon Boat Festival."

If Xiao San is equivalent to the actual manager of the entire Moqing City, then Xia Ming is the security captain. The two of them, one civil and one military, manage the entire Moqing City in an orderly manner, making it easy for her to be the hands-off manager.

But then she was still busy for several days.

Busy preparing the massive amount of rice dumplings to be used in the rice dumpling eating competition.

She hired a group of hardworking women in the village, led by Aunt Li, to help her. She also taught a dozen puppets in the space and asked them to work overtime.

The wrapped rice dumplings can be steamed directly in a regular pot. It is no problem to steam a large bucket at one time.

A bucket that's about the size of a bathtub.

After steaming, they are put into storage bags, one for each flavor. Sweet ones include candied fruit dumplings, red bean paste dumplings, red date dumplings, etc.; salty ones include ham dumplings, egg yolk dumplings, bacon dumplings... There are twenty or thirty kinds in total.

This should be enough, right?

Shen Yizhi thought.

If it is not enough, I will let the puppets in the space pack it up now. Anyway, they are very quick and their work efficiency is really amazing.

The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Shen Yizi made a large number of incense sticks.

Mix several kinds of spices such as realgar, lily, cypress, patchouli, etc. that have been ground into powder together, add clear and sweet spring water, and add a few drops of spiritual spring water and medicinal spring water. Knead the spices into a ball like flour, and then let it ferment naturally for a while. Then put it in a jar and heat it with water steaming method, so that the flavors of various medicines are neutralized together.

After steaming for about four hours, you can take out the incense ball, press the incense into strands with a mold, and then dry them in the shade. Try one.

If the smoke goes straight up when the incense burns and does not float around, then it means that the incense is well made.

Shen Yizhi named the incense "Chongwuxiang", which means the incense burned specifically on the Dragon Boat Festival.

This is a kind of medicinal incense. The scent after it is lit has the effect of expelling insects, removing toxins, calming the mind and calming the spirit. When inhaled into the body, it can detoxify and drive away diseases.

Heavy five-spice powder is an important item in the festival gifts she prepared.

Early in the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, Shen Yizhi asked Kun San and Qian Wu to deliver the gifts to familiar households and people in the village.

In addition to the five-spice powder, the festival gifts also include a box of rice dumplings, a package of pastries and a basket of fresh fruits.

The news that Moqing City was going to hold a rice dumpling eating competition, a dragon boat race, and a Cuju competition had already spread to villages and towns within a radius of hundreds of miles, and the city was bustling with activity early in the morning.

The dragon boat race starts at 9am, the Cuju race starts at 3pm, and the Zongzi eating race is held all day. You can sign up at any time and start eating at any time! The dragon boat race is held on Tianzhou Lake, and a temporary stand has been built by the lake for people to watch the race.

The Cuju match was held on the college's playground, with rows of seats arranged around it.

As for the Zongzi eating contest, several platforms were specially built in various places in the city as bases.

In the large wooden barrel on the stage, the rice dumplings were piled up like a mountain, and the rice dumplings were all piled up. There were five such large wooden barrels on the stage.

Those who have signed up for the competition have already gathered around the wooden barrel and started eating rice dumplings.

Each zongzi is tied with a red string, and the contestants must hand the red string to the referee who counts.
