Chapter 228 Mr. Yogurt Comes to Guess Lantern Riddles
Each person had a bowl of steaming hot chicken.
Li Mu picked up a piece of chicken leg, blew it gently to cool it down, and then put it in the kitten's personal bowl.
"Suck, suck, suck" Brother Nan picked up a chicken wing, blew it a few times, and teased the little wolf cub at his feet.
The wolf cub looked up and stared at the chicken wings, his tail wagging gently.
Li Mu shook his head, ignored Brother Nan, blew into the bowl and took a sip of soup.
The fat hen that has been raised for three years, paired with Matsutake and hazel mushrooms, is extremely delicious. The wood stove heats the food evenly, making the soup thick, crystal clear and golden. The taste of a piece of meat with the soup is so delicious that even gods would not trade it for anything else.
Li Mu also put a few pancakes on the edge of the pot. After absorbing the soup, the meat and mushrooms made his stomach feel satisfied.
Brother Nan teased the little wolf cubs for a long time, threw the wings to them, and took out a two-liang bottle of Erguotou from his pocket.
"Why is there still wine?" Li Mu looked at Erguotou curiously.
"I wanted to drink the bottle on the high-speed train, but I didn't because I had to drive to Lingchun." Brother Nan unscrewed the bottle cap, took a small sip, and squinted his eyes.
"That's it."
"Fortunately, I didn't drink it and put it in my bag. Otherwise, the Black Wind Monster would have drunk it all!" Brother Nan stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth and chewed it hard.
I get angry when I talk about this.
She had clearly filled two mineral water bottles with Maotai from home, but now she could only drink Erguotou, and only two taels at that, and she dared not drink more.
"Eat meat and try the hazel mushrooms, they are especially delicious." Li Mu changed the subject to prevent Brother Nan from getting more angry.
The cat munched on the chicken with big mouthfuls, making loud smacking sounds.
"How does Mr. Yogurt taste?" Li Mu looked at the kitten beside him.
"Mr. Yogurt thinks it's delicious."
"As long as it tastes good, eat more."
"Give Mr. Yogurt some of the mountain mushrooms as well." The cat tilted its head back and licked its lips.
"This is called hazel mushroom. Mountain hemp mushroom is chicken mushroom. They taste different." Li Mu said as he picked up a hazel mushroom, blew it cool and put it in the kitten's bowl.
"It's the same, both mushrooms." The cat lowered its head, took a bite, and chewed it carefully.
Li Mu did not refute her. The cat had its own understanding.
After eating for a while, the kitten raised his face from the bowl and looked at Li Mu, "Mr. Yogurt seems to be different from before."
"Huh? Why is it different?"
"Mr. Yogurt seems to like eating human food more and more."
The cat frowned and thought for a while before continuing, "When Master Yogurt first ate human food, he felt that everything tasted the same. Whether it was fruit or grass, it was not tasty. Meat was tasty, but no matter what vegetables and mushrooms were added to it, it tasted like meat. But now it tastes different."
"Master Yogurt can taste the freshness of mushrooms?"
"Yes!"
"That's it."
"That's it."
"Don't imitate me."
"I'll learn how to speak like you."
"You little kitten." Li Mu shook his head.
"You adult." The cat also shook his head.
"Li Mutou, I think you are particularly suitable for taking care of children in the future." Brother Nan held a glass of Erguotou and watched him chatting with Suoyou with a smile.
"Oh."
Li Mu picked up the bowl and drank the soup.
The cat also learned to hold the edge of the bowl with its two little paws and tried to lift it. When it failed, it lowered its head and licked two mouthfuls of the chicken soup.
Li Mu smiled and picked up a piece of matsutake and gave it to the kitten, "Master Yogurt, try this."
"Okay." Baji, baji.
"Is it tasty?"
"delicious."
"But Lord Yogurt's favorite food should still be mice, right?"
"Yes!"
The cat immediately nodded seriously.
Rats are so delicious, how could you not like eating them?
Cats are made of iron and mice are made of steel. They will be anxious if they don't eat for a meal.
"You eat it too. Once you have a taste, you will know how delicious the mouse is!" The cat stared at Li Mu without blinking.
Li Mu immediately turned his head back and concentrated on eating.
"Eat it?"
"."
“Eat?”
Maoer stared at Li Mu who pretended not to hear anything, and felt that this scene looked very familiar.
After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that she had done this before.
So what did Ni Mu say about her behavior?
The cat carefully searched the memory in his mind.
I got it!
The kitten's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth and said softly, "Since you don't speak, then Master Yogurt will be your..."
"Meow?"
"!?"
The cat was stunned for a moment.
After dinner.
Brother Nan leaned back in his chair contentedly, resting and daydreaming after his meal.
There was still a little bit of Erguotou left, but Brother Nan was reluctant to drink it all at once.
The meat was finished.
An old hen weighing several pounds was stewed in a big pot with hazel mushrooms and pine mushrooms.
But Brother Nan had a big appetite, and there were a group of animals around, so he ate up the whole pot of chicken soup.
After eating and drinking, the animals lay comfortably on the ground to rest, gently wagging their tails.
Li Mu looked up and admired the moonlight.
The old saying goes, the moon is fullest on the 16th day of the lunar month, which is absolutely true.
Today is the 17th day of the eighth lunar month, and the moon is still hanging in the sky like a big jade plate.
“It’s a good brew~”
The cat lay on the table, imitating Li Mu's way of looking at the moon.
Li Mu lowered his head and touched the kitten's forehead, "Because the Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed."
"Well! Auntie made Pan Hai for Mid-Autumn Festival!"
"Yes, Master Yogurt, did you know that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, we not only eat moon cakes, crabs, and admire the moon, but we also have the custom of guessing lantern riddles."
"Guess lantern riddles?"
"That's right. Guessing lantern riddles is a unique folk culture of Dragon Country with a history of thousands of years. During the Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival, people would hang up lanterns and paste riddles on the lanterns so that people could guess riddles while enjoying the lanterns. No matter if they were princes and nobles, talented scholars and beautiful ladies, scholars and warriors, or ordinary people, they would all play lantern riddles to celebrate the festival."
"Can't understand"
Li Mu looked at the cat's confused look and smiled, "Then I'll play with Yogurt for a while, and you should understand after playing."
"Ok!"
When the cat heard that he wanted to play, he immediately became interested, "How do we play?"
"I tell you a riddle, and Master Yogurt, guess what I am talking about. If you guess it right, I will give you a lantern."
"Master Yogurt guessed correctly that he doesn't want a lantern, but can you eat a mouse?"
".Forget about playing."
Li Mu turned his head back.
"Let's play, I'm in the same team with Suo Ran!" Brother Nan also became interested and sat up straight to look at him.
"Then I'll give you a riddle and you guess it. If you guess it correctly, the prize is a lantern, is that okay?" Li Mu looked at the kitten.
The cat nodded regretfully.
"You"
Li Mu rubbed the kitten's head, thought for a while, and then started to make riddles.
"When the children on the steps look up, the Qingming decorations are the most appropriate. Once the silk thread is broken, it is powerless. Don't blame the east wind for the separation. Just guess."
Brother Nan and Xiaomao started thinking at the same time.
In fact, it was mainly Brother Nan's guess. With Yogurt's current cultural level, it's good enough that he can understand it, let alone guess.
Li Mu mainly wanted her to play along and understand how to play the lantern riddle game.
"The gossamer is broken and there is nothing left," Brother Nan whispered, "I know! It's a kite!"
"That's right." Li Mu was a little surprised that Brother Nan, who was so slow to use his brain, actually guessed it.
"What are you looking at? After all, I am a special recruit of Tsinghua University!" Brother Nan stared at Li Mu with unfriendly eyes.
"Ahem, next one."
Li Mu coughed dryly, pondered for a moment, and then came up with another riddle, "A bright moon hangs in the sky, a lady and a scholar are like twins, meeting at the bank of a clear pool at twilight hour, reading poetry and books carefully without words, guess it."
Maoer looked at Li Mu blankly, then turned to look at Brother Nan. Seeing that Brother Nan was frowning and thinking, she quickly lowered her head and pretended to think.
In fact, my mind is a mess.
