"Grandma, don't worry. When we brought you here, we sent a letter to Lord Yao, saying that you were at my house. There's nothing we can do about it. If it were a normal day, your aunt would have come back. It must be because of the heavy snow that she couldn't come back. Maybe your aunt is worried too much." Yiyami comforted her.
On Yao Wenyuan's side, he was running around outside to rescue the trapped people.
Many people lost their houses and had nowhere to go, so Yao Wenyuan had to temporarily house them in his prefectural government.
He Huaixiu glanced at the sky that was still snowing and sighed, but when he thought of what Yao Wenyuan said about the He family being with Yi Yami, he felt relieved. After all, having more people around would definitely make people feel more at ease.
He Huaixiu took out the dry food that Yao Wenyuan had previously prepared. She smiled helplessly and said that these were originally meant for Yao Wenyuan to eat. Fortunately, the He family and Yi Yami were worried that he could not take care of himself, so they made a lot of long-lasting dry food. This solved the urgent problem. He Huaixiu distributed these dry food to other people affected by the disaster.
At noon, Yiyami heated up the oil in a pot and fried the edible fungi that she had picked from the mountain. Then she put the fat and pork belly that Qian Fugui had cut into the pot. After the oil came out, she added chili peppers, ginger slices, star anise and other spices. She also poured in the vegetables and the meatballs that Xiaodi and the others had made. Yiyami threw the seafood that she had taken out from the space in advance into the pot and started cooking them together. It was a big pot of spicy and fragrant food.
Yi Yami asked Qian Fugui to shovel the snow in front of the door and pile it on both sides, and asked Qian Fugui to go to the village to greet people, so that those who had no food at home could bring bowls and chopsticks and go to Yi's house to get a bowl of food.
Upon hearing this, many people came with bowls.
Yi Yami asked Xiao Di and the others to distribute the food, while she would look at the number of people to see if it was enough. If not, she would cook something else.
After a busy morning, everyone had a full meal. After they finished eating, they were all grateful to Yi Yami and the Yi family. Yi Yami waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's a small matter. Everyone go back and have a good new year." Yi Yami also asked Qian Fugui to steam a lot of steamed buns for these people to take back and eat.
Many people were moved to tears, but they could do nothing. Everyone looked at the snow in front of Yi's house and had an idea in their mind.
After seeing that everyone had left, the Yi family closed the door and prepared their own dinner.
There were quite a few people in the Yi family. Yi Yami took a look and thought that they should save some food for other things, but she had some room to cheat and could eat anything from the sea.
So she found an excuse to go back to the room and asked Roland to catch a lot of seafood from the sea before Yiyami left the room.
While no one was paying attention, Yiyami moved the seafood in the space into the seafood tank.
Yi Yami moved away after finishing.
Qian Fugui saw that the lid of the jar was not closed properly, so he walked over to cover it. He looked down and saw that the jar was full of seafood. He was dumbfounded. He remembered that the jar had been given to the villagers and there was nothing left. How could it be full again now?
Seeing him dumbfounded, Yi Yami said, "Fugui, you and Duoduo, take care of these seafood. We will have a seafood feast tonight for the New Year."
Qian Fugui nodded stupidly. He had an idea in his mind: could the shopkeeper of his house be a fairy?
Thinking of this, he shook his head again. If she was a fairy, why didn't she just stop the snowstorm from happening?
So he just felt that he had made a mistake.
Qian Fugui and Qian Duoduo cleaned up the seafood, and Yi Yami started cooking with the seafood in the evening.
Fried seafood, steamed seafood, seafood hot pot, etc. However, due to the cold weather and poor medical care in that era, it was difficult to find a doctor at that time, so Yiyami gave up the idea of raw and marinated seafood. She herself could not accept raw food.
By the end of this New Year’s Eve dinner, everyone was very full.
Yi Yami finally had Spanish mackerel dumplings served, completing the entire seafood set meal.
Everyone was eating dumplings and chatting as the night grew late.
Before everyone went to bed, Old Lady Yi said, "Come on, youngsters, come here and receive your New Year's money."
The eldest son of Yi, the third son of Yi, and the second son of Yi, brought their wives, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Old Lady Yi, and then Old Lady Yi gave each of them a small red envelope.
"May everything go smoothly, and be safe and happy." Old Mrs. Yi blessed them.
"Thank you, Mom!" the three sons and daughters-in-law said with a smile.
"Come on, come on, you kids, come here, kowtow to your grandma and say some auspicious words." Boss Yi said, inviting them.
"I wish grandma a happy new year and good health." Yiyami said with a smile.
"I wish grandma a long life and happiness as vast as the East Sea." Yi Xiaomai said.
Others also said their blessings and received New Year's money.
He Shoushan and Zhao Hongying also gave.
The parents’ generation gave another round.
Yi Yami gave a thick red envelope to Xiaodi, Fugui and everyone else.
"Thank you, boss!" Xiaodi and others were very happy.
Yiyami also gave red envelopes to the elders, saying it was a sign of filial piety, and then gave red envelopes to his younger brothers and sisters.
There was another round of joy and noise.
After a while, when everyone else went to bed, Yiyami accompanied the female family members in the Kitchen God Worship Ceremony in front of the kitchen stove.
The female relatives gently wiped the portrait of the Kitchen God while placing the offerings in front of him. Then they lit incense sticks and chanted, "Pray to the Kitchen God, for good weather and no disasters next year!" "Please bless the Kitchen God and pray that everything goes well!" and other similar wishes.
