Open the lid of the pot, and the aroma in the cabin is overflowing for a while. Looking at the dumplings floating up and down in the pot, Yan Dan was very distressed. He thought they would stay here and eat together, so he made two more people. Now who will eat the extra dumplings? She turned her head slowly, saw the assassin huddled in the corner of the cabin, and smiled brightly: "Since I cooked so much, I will feed you all."
The assassin's face was pale, and he said timidly: "No need, I still won't spoil the girl's cooking..."
Yan Dansheng pushed a bowl of dumplings in front of Yu Mo, then turned to look at him, and slowly lowered his face: "You seem to be very scared... Could it be that I look terrible and scared you?"
The assassin immediately shook his head sharply: "The girl is naturally beautiful, she looks amazing!"
"Then what are you afraid of?" She scooped up a dumpling with a spoon and brought it to his mouth, "I see that you are shaking so badly that you can't even hold the spoon. Well, let me feed you, okay? ?"
The assassin's face was even more pale, and he stammered: "But, but the meat, the meat in this..."
Yan Dan made a long snort, and untied the white cloth wrapped around his legs at once: "Look for yourself, where is a piece of meat missing?" She smiled slightly: "Come on, open your mouth, my craftsmanship is very good. ." The assassin looked at his legs, closed his eyes, and swallowed the dumpling in one bite.
Yan Dan looked at him intently: "Does it taste good?"
The assassin immediately praised: "Okay, that's great!" At this time, even if it was pig food, he could only say yes, not to mention that the dumpling skin was thin and the filling was juicy and salty. When he was angry, he really chopped the meat from him into mince. Yan Dan smiled: "Then eat another one." She fed them one by one, unknowingly feeding all the extra dumplings in the pot.
Yu Mo looked at them, looked at the dumplings in the spoon, and said nothing.
Yan Dan smiled and said, "What's your name? I can't call you 'hello'."
The man was stuffing dumplings in his mouth and said vaguely, "Leopard... Leopard."
Yan Danyanran said: "Will it be better to change to siu mai tomorrow? The best flavor I've ever eaten is in Tongcheng, and I don't know if I can make that flavor."
Leopard couldn't help but ask: "Is it the shumai sold by the old man Huang in Yangliu Alley in Tongcheng?"
"Yes, yes, so you have eaten it too."
"His steamed pork with jelly is also delicious, not worse than his siomai."
Yan Dan was very happy, smiling like a flower: "Yes, yes, I went to line up to buy it early in the morning every day, and it was sold out later."
Yu Mo put down the bowl and coughed lightly, "Yan Dan."
Yan Dan immediately looked back at him. Yu Mo said lightly: "I think you've had enough trouble today." Yan Dan nodded obediently, and moved the oil lamp to a suitable position: "Shanzhu, are you reading a book? I won't quarrel with you."
Leopard asked in a low voice, "Are you so afraid of him too?"
"I'm very afraid. Shan is mainly angry, and no matter who it is, he will directly dump eight pieces of Shenjiang..."
Leopard shivered and stopped talking.
Yu Mo glanced at her, opened the book and read it. When turning the pages, he couldn't help but look up to see what Yan Dan was doing. I saw that she used a magic trick to conjure up a pair of dice, and she was betting with the leopard for copper coins, with a small stack of won coins beside it. Yu Mo squeezed the book and said solemnly, "Yan Dan!"
Yan Dan was taken aback, the dice in his hand slipped, and the face was exactly three o'clock. The leopard laughed: "Three ones, I will be the villager, and I will kill them all! These copper coins belong to me."
Yu Mo rubbed his temples: "I think you'll be happy if you're buried..."
Yan Dan was shocked and staggered to the table: "I won't play dice again, I won't make you angry anymore, don't bury me..." Yu Mo patted the cushion beside him: "You sit down Come here, no bargaining."
Yan Dan pouted, moved to his side reluctantly, and quietly glanced at the book Yu Mo was reading.
Without Yan Dan to play dice with him, Leopard had to gamble with his left and right hands. After throwing the dice for a while, he felt bored, so he huddled in the corner, snored loudly, and fell asleep.
Yan Dan sat for a while with his chin propped up, and then slowly closed his eyes amid the snoring of the leopard. She was also confused for a while, then suddenly woke up. The oil lamps were out, and the cabin was pitch black. She was leaning on Yu Mo's shoulder, probably leaning on him when she closed her eyes and was confused, but Yu Mo didn't push her away. She moved carefully, Yu Mo frowned slightly, and rubbed her chin on top of her head.
Yan Dan moved away lightly, dragged the blanket beside him, and gently covered him. She reached out her hand cautiously, touched Yu Mo's eyelashes, and murmured sympathetically, "I know you must be very sad to see that flower essence girl don't have a hug. I'm not very good at persuading me, but I can't help it, but I think Bailing will give you warmth..."
At dawn, the boat is moored at the ferry platform by the river, and Wuzhen is not far from the ferry platform.
Yan Dan looked at the people who came to the market early in the morning with their burdens, and couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that today is a special day, it's really lively."
Leopard counted with his fingers for a while: "Today is the third day of May, and the fifth day of May is the Dragon Boat Festival."
Yan Dan hummed and murmured, "It's the Dragon Boat Festival..."
The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the most prosperous day between heaven and earth. There is a custom of eating rice dumplings and racing dragon boats in the world, but for them, this day is the most difficult day. She has a deep cultivation base and is naturally not afraid, but after all, she still feels uncomfortable.
Just for the occasion, the zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival are still eaten.
Yan Dan bought glutinous rice, leaves, bacon and chestnuts, and gave them all to Leopard to carry. After passing by a stall selling apples, Yu Mo's footsteps froze. Yan Dan was shocked, and immediately said: "Master, what do you think of the oranges over there?" The oranges can be eaten as long as they are peeled, and the apples have to be peeled and cut into pieces. Yu Mo naturally doesn't need to be bothered, but she If you want to save trouble, save trouble.
Leopard said stupidly: "Eating too many oranges can easily get angry."
Yan Dan said coldly, "It's just right with mung bean cake."
Yu Mo put the folding fan in the palm of his hand and said lightly, "That's the orange."
Yan Dan smiled slightly, with bright eyes and white teeth: "Young Master, you are so kind." Leopard was despised, so he had to follow behind with a basket.
Yu Mo whispered: "Dragon Boat Festival will be in two days. We're afraid we won't be able to get back to Kulan Mountain. Can you stand it?" Yan Dan didn't care: "That's right, and it's not the first time I've been there. It's Dragon Boat Festival."
Yu Mo smiled, and the corners of his brows and eyes were soft: "You say this now, don't cry to me when you feel uncomfortable that day."
Yan Dan suddenly felt that he couldn't hold back his face, and pouted slightly: "I won't cry."
Leopard pointed to the stall selling jelly: "Steamed pork with jelly..." Yu Mo gave him a cold look, Leopard shivered aggrievedly, and took two steps back silently.
Yan Dan bit his chopsticks and watched as the leopard shoved the steamed pork jelly into his mouth like water, and quickly asked, "How is it?" The leopard didn't wait to swallow it completely, and said vaguely, "Okay, Bi Huang The old man's is better…”
Yan Dan lifted a corner of the steamer and took out a steaming shumai: "Come on, try this."
The leopard took her hand and bit down the shumai, chewing it a few times: "Very good, I don't have to say that."
Yu Mo squeezed the book in his hand, and a crease appeared on the flat page.
"Miss Yan, are you kind enough to give me another one?" Leopard stared at the steamer covetously.
Yan Dan took out another shumai, blew hot air, and brought it to his mouth: "Come on, be careful of scalding..."
Yu Mo put down the book in his hand, stood up long, picked up the leopard by the collar, and dragged him to the bow. Leopard struggled vigorously, but Yu Mo didn't seem to even feel it, and continued to drag him out without looking sideways. Yan Dan quickly grabbed Yu Mo's sleeve and shook it gently: "Shanzhu, shouldn't you throw him into the river?"
Yu Mo said lightly, "So what?"
"The boat has left the shore. What a pity to throw a man into the water and let him swim back. Isn't that right, Leopard?"
Leopard nodded quickly.
"What if I have to throw him down?"
Yan Dan weighed the pros and cons, and resolutely made way: "Then throw it away."
Leopard closed his eyes in despair.
Hearing a thud from outside the cabin, Yu Mo lifted the boat curtain and walked in. He brushed his sleeves casually, sat down at the table again, picked up the book and continued to read.
Yan Dan pricked her ears to listen to the movement outside, and quietly stretched out her hand to open the curtain to take a look, only to hear Yu Mo coughing softly behind her, she immediately retracted her hand and sat upright: "Shanzhu, you Are you hungry too?"
Yu Mo put down the book, and Yan Dan immediately put the food on the low table and set it up for him: "Shanzhu, what kind of stuffed zongzi do you like to eat? Sweet or salty?"
Yu Mo thought about it and said, "It's salty."
Yan Dan nodded: "I also think salty is good."
It's really good to have a few mortal festivals.
The fifth day of May, the Dragon Boat Festival.
On this day, the boat happened to float on the Huanhua River.
Yan Dan felt stuffy when he woke up early in the morning, and even more dizzy after sitting on the bow for a while. Yu Mo soaked the towel in the stream, wringed it dry, and handed it to her: "Why, do you feel very hot?" Yan Dan was already in a daze and didn't reach out to pick it up, just rubbed his hand on the towel and muttered. He murmured: "I just don't feel very comfortable, and I'm weak..."
Yu Mo looked at her, gently wiped her face with a towel, and said in a low voice, "This day is like this, and it will be over soon." His fingers were slightly cold and touched his face. Very comfortable on. Yan Dan muttered: "Why do you have nothing at all..."
Yu Mo smiled softly, his voice low and sweet: "Do you feel better now?"
Yan Dan tried his best to row the boat to the ferry to dock. He was struggling to climb into the cabin when he heard someone shouting loudly not far away: "Help, help... gurgle, help, help..." There was a head in the stream. Probing up, and sinking again after a while. Yan Dan squinted and looked at it, seeing that it was a ten-year-old child who wanted to climb off the boat to save people.
Yu Mo stopped her for a moment, and said lightly, "You're already like this, so be calm, so that I don't have to save the other two." He stepped into the water and slowly crossed to the place where the child was drowning. Yan Dan lay on the boat and looked at him, only to think that Yu Mo's okay appearance was simply trying to be brave. In terms of demon magic, Yu Mo is even better, but in terms of cultivation base, they are really half a catty. If she feels uncomfortable, how can Yu Mo feel better
But seeing Yu Modu approaching, he reached out and grabbed the child. The child fluttered a few times, and actually wrapped around Yu Mo's arm, clinging to it. Yu Mo knocked the child unconscious with a clean palm and dragged him to the shore. Yan Dan looked at him this time, and felt that the back of his neck started to hurt. The two of them landed on the shore, and before they could stand firm, they saw a farmer woman who rushed up and grabbed Yu Mo's hand: "Thank you, son for saving my brother, son's kindness and virtue are unforgettable..." She relaxed. Kai grabbed Yu Mo's hand, grabbed the child again, and beat him a few times: "Let you be naughty, let you play in the water... You just won't obey..." The child was originally knocked unconscious by Yu Mo Yes, he was suddenly woken up by his sister, crying loudly.
Yan Dan felt amused, and walked behind Yu Mo with his clean clothes in his arms: "Master, are you alright?"
Yu Mo looked at her, smiled slowly, and the smile was like a smoky wind: "It's okay."
Seeing his smile, Yan Dan couldn't help thinking, maybe Yu Mo is really gentle.
The peasant girl Lian Xin led them to their home, because it was in the shade, so it was much cooler than the boat. Yan Dan put the clean clothes on the old wooden table, then closed the door and stood outside. The kid who was caught from the water was being chased by his sister and ran around the courtyard. As soon as he saw Yan Dan, he quickly hid behind her and didn't dare to stick his head out.
"You hide again, if you have the ability, you will always hide and don't come out!" Lian Xin angrily rolled up her sleeves, "Do you know that your grandmother is not in good health and can't stand it, and you will only cause trouble when you are so old!"
Yan Dan smiled and said: "Miss Lianxin, children should be taught slowly." She turned around and said softly, "I'll tell you a story, okay? There used to be a mountain demon who was not obedient to food. He has many, many subordinates, and he asked around where there were disobedient children. He immediately caught them and cut off those children's ears to drink. Anyway, no matter what the adults said, those children didn't listen. What's the use of ears..."
The child's face turned pale, and tremblingly hid behind his sister.
The door behind him opened with a creak, and Yu Mo walked out, smiling slightly: "Yan Dan, you're making a fool of yourself again." He put on a light blue robe, and suddenly a handsome young man appeared.
Yan Dan tapped his chin with his finger, and did not forget to praise him: "Young Master, your son loves the blue shirt Xiao Ran, but it is not as appropriate as you."
Yu Mo raised his hand and pinched the tip of her nose, and said softly, "Yan Dan, when will you be able to change this problem of talking to people and talking to ghosts?"
Yan Dan was silent: Ordinary people often say that being a human being is difficult, but she feels that being a demon is even more difficult.
Lian Xin smiled and said, "It's almost noon, you guys should stay here for lunch too. My grandmother cooks it herself." , I guarantee you will remember it after eating it once."
When Yan Dan heard what she said, she was also very interested.
When they entered the main room, they saw a white-haired old woman laying out tableware. Yan Dan couldn't help thinking that the old woman seemed to be quite old, she should be a fraction of her age, and it was really not easy to pull these two brothers and sisters together.
When she approached the table, she immediately saw a bowl of boiled yellow croaker with pickled vegetables in the middle of the table. Dragon Boat Festival, in addition to dumplings, yellow croaker is also essential.
Among the things Bailing has warned at least ten times, one of them is: No matter whether the fish is steamed, grilled, fried, or fished from the river, stream, or sea, it is not allowed to be brought to the mountain. in front of the main table. But what she inquired about privately was that Yu Mo's real body was a fish. After all, seeing the cooked corpses of the same kind placed in front of him on a plate, and watching others eat them, the taste of each is really bad.
Yan Dan couldn't help but secretly glanced at Yu Mo, only to see that his expression was indifferent, as if Mount Tai would collapse before his eyes and would not be moved.
