Chapter 75 Cold Food Festival
October morning, Cold Food Festival, worship ancestors, plant willows, drink spring wine.
Lin Baoer was pulled out of bed by Shen Xuelan early in the morning, and then wrapped in a thick blanket and taken to the carriage.
On the day of Cold Food Festival, all officials will take a special day off to accompany their relatives to play and worship their ancestors. Therefore, this day is also a rare day for relatives and friends to get together. The whole city of Yanjing is full of lights and green, noisy and lively.
When Lin Baoer woke up from a drowsy sleep again, she found herself in a strange place.
Carved beams and painted rafters, ringing bells and beating drums, and an ancient atmosphere came towards her.
Is this... a temple?
"Mom, why did you think of coming to Hanshuang Temple today?" Lin Ruqian rubbed his hands, shook off the mud on his shoes, and looked around.
After offering sacrifices to the ancestors, they should have returned to the Lin Mansion, but Shen Xuelan suddenly said that she wanted to come to Hanshuang Temple again, so everyone came with her.
"What do you know?" Lin Zhiyu knocked on his head, and then followed Shen Xuelan first, "Who do you think prayed for your restaurant's good fortune? Now you have to fulfill your wish."
Since Lin Ruqian added shares to Sun Zice's Shenghuai Restaurant, it has really changed from the past. Every day, there are crowds of people and no seats are empty. The desserts there are deeply loved by the ladies and ladies in Yanjing City, and the supply cannot meet the demand.
Sun Zice also made a lot of money because of this, and he has a new look at this little brother of the Lin family.
After being scolded, Lin Ruqian dared not say a word and followed them obediently.
Arriving outside the temple, after bowing and worshipping, several people came out.
[It turns out that the atmosphere of the ancient temples was so rich...]
Lin Baoer sighed and smacked her lips.
She had also been to the temple in modern times. As soon as she walked in, someone started to promote all kinds of Buddha pendants, such as red rope longevity locks and Guanyin holy water, which fooled her.
Compared with modern times, this place is much more sacred and clean. Many pilgrims come here with sincerity, and there are no messy things around.
After leaving the temple, the group began to go their separate ways.
Shen Xuelan and Lin Qiming were going back to the Lin Mansion, while Lin Zhiyu, Lin Mobai, and Lin Ruqian were going to chat with their respective friends. After all, in addition to worshipping ancestors, the Cold Food Festival also involves eating, drinking, and having fun.
Seeing that they were about to return to their one-third acre of land, Lin Baoer was so anxious that she quickly grabbed the nearest Lin Zhiyu and refused to get off him, which made Lin Zhiyu quite helpless.
Lin Ruqian at the side was gloating, "Brother, you see Baoer likes you so much, you can take her with you, maybe Miss Chu misses Baoer too."
Facing his ridicule, Lin Zhiyu glared at him fiercely, and the tip of his ears turned red quietly.
In the end, Lin Baoer followed Lin Zhiyu.
But half an hour later, she saw Lin Ruqian again.
Sun Zice stood at the door of Shenghuai Restaurant, swinging his folding fan, smiling with his eyes half-closed, looking very happy. Next to him, stood Lin Ruqian, who looked like he had lost all hope in life.
He had teased his elder brother because he knew he would not see him today, but he did not expect that retribution would come so soon.
"Hey, the baby is here too?" Sun Zice raised his eyebrows and approached with a sly look.
Looking at the handsome face in front of him, Lin Baoer mercilessly grabbed the tender flesh on it, and then pulled it hard to both sides.
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts!" Sun Zice wailed, and quickly rescued his face from Lin Baoer's claws. He looked at her with resentment, and said half-threateningly: "Do you believe that Brother Sun will spank you?"
Lin Baoer was not afraid at all. She snorted and turned her butt to him, "No!"
"Huh?"
Sun Zice was surprised, "This baby can talk?"
Lin Zhiyu rubbed Lin Baoer's head, smiled and nodded, "It can say some simple words."
Sun Zice pretended to be deaf and could not hear the last few words. He excitedly moved to Lin Baoer's side and urged, "Little Baoer, come, call Brother Sun~"
"Sun~Brother~Brother~"
Lin Baoer couldn't help rolling her eyes.
[Only dogs call you! ]
The two brothers couldn't help laughing after hearing the inner voice.
Seeing that she was not interested, Sun Zice was very depressed.
At this time, Lin Zhiyu deliberately gave a strong dose of medicine, "The day after Baoer learned to speak, she called me big brother."
"What?!" Sun Zice couldn't believe it, and became more and more unbalanced. He began to pester Lin Baoer in such a disrespectful way to make her speak.
In the end, Lin Zhiyu couldn't stand it anymore, and pushed him away and said, "What are you doing here? Let's talk inside."
Sun Zice realized belatedly that many people were staring at him.
He embarrassedly covered his face with a folding fan, pouted his lips, and then entered the restaurant.
The three of them went all the way to the private room on the top floor.
After arriving here, Sun Zice directly released his nature, chasing Lin Baoer and insisting that she call him, and he would not stop until he achieved his goal.
Unable to bear his noise any longer, Lin Zhiyu sighed helplessly, then patted Lin Baoer's butt, signaling her to let the boy be quiet for a while.
In fact, Lin Baoer was also annoyed by Sun Zice. After glaring at him angrily, she finally roared in a soft voice.
"Damn..."
It was called a roar,
but it was actually very soft. Although he didn't shout it all, Sun Zice was also satisfied with the soft voice.
"Hehe." He raised his head proudly, feeling very proud.
Looking at this scene, Lin Zhiyu covered his face, really wanting to say that he didn't know this person.
Knock knock knock -
there was a knock on the door, and the shopkeeper of Shenghuai Restaurant personally brought a table of food over.
Smelling the fragrance in the air, Lin Baoer's eyes lit up.
This taste...
"Chicken with pork belly?" Lin Zhiyu was a little surprised.
Lin Ruqian smiled and said, "Well! This is the most comfortable dish when the weather is cold. We have made some improvements to this dish and added some medicinal herbs. Come and try it, brother."
Looking at the milky white soup boiling inside, Lin Baoer's mouth was almost watering.
"Eat!"
She shouted the word clearly, and then couldn't wait to grab the chopsticks.
Afraid that she would fall into the pot, Lin Zhiyu quickly hugged her and scooped up a piece of crispy and soft chicken.
After the chicken cooled down a little, he fed it into her mouth.
"Ahhh~" Delicious! I want more!
This dish made her scalp tingle, and it was so delicious that she didn't care to talk.
"It does smell different from the previous ones. The aroma mixed with the smell of medicine is neither conflicting nor bitter. The chicken and pork belly are soft and tasty, without any fishy smell. It is truly top-grade." Lin Zhiyu looked at the chicken in the bowl and praised.
"Of course not!" Lin Ruqian said proudly, smiling, "Many ladies like this dish, it warms the body and nourishes the skin, and is also suitable for children."
While she was talking, Lin Baoer swallowed a few mouthfuls of the soup, and her stomach felt warm and comfortable, so she sighed.
