In the mountain stream, Feng Ye heard the crowing of a rooster coming from behind him, and when he turned around, it was the female pheasant, shuttled between the grass and chased Feng Ye over.

Hey, instead of running away, she is chasing after her now. It seems that maternal love in the world is really great, no matter what race it is.

The pheasant stopped when it got close to Feng Ye, and kept pacing behind Feng Ye, stretching and shrinking its neck, and made a threatening sound of "cuckoo" in its throat.

Feng Ye put the basket on the ground, and stepped back a few steps.

The "chirp" of the chicks in the back basket made the mother pheasant very anxious. The chicken looked at Feng Ye again, and then slowly approached the basket.

After the mother pheasant made out with the chicks for a while, Feng Ye suddenly rushed up, the pheasant was frightened, turned around and wanted to run away, Feng Ye had already grabbed a long branch in his hand, with a canopy on it Leaves.Sweeping the branch, the pheasant tripped, jumped up and burrowed into a nearby bush.

Feng Ye ran over, the pheasant was still flopping in the grass, Feng Ye reached in and grabbed the pheasant whose wings were entangled by vines and long grass.

It's really stupid, hitting the dead road, just in time to catch the little pheasant and bring it back.

Smiling, Feng Ye held the pheasant's two wings, let it struggle on its own, and went down the mountain with a basket on its back.

When passing the few chestnut trees that Feng Ye used to visit last year, Feng Ye stopped to look at them for a while, and now the trees are full of green nut balls, hidden in groups among the leaves, and it will not be long before, They will be ripe and ready to enjoy candied chestnuts again.

Looking at the surrounding green mountains and forests, Feng Ye couldn't help sighing: Life is so beautiful, there are so many surprises waiting for us every moment.

42. Extra Story

Xiao Yuanhe was born in Miaodu, and grew up in the prosperous imperial capital of the capital. He has an older brother and an older sister. As the youngest son, he is very loved by his family and relatives at home.

The Xiao family belonged to the distant branch of the royal family. During the second generation of emperors after the founding of the country, their ancestors were once imperial princes. However, the title of the Great Shang Dynasty can only be passed on for three generations. In Yuanhe's generation, he was no different from a commoner.

Both his grandfather and father were open-minded people, they were not obsessed with the glory of their ancestors, nor did they allow their children to test for fame and fortune like other offshoots. They just guarded the land passed down from their ancestors and did some business to live the life of a rich man. Even if they are all talented, they have not expanded the business infinitely.My father said that too much power and wealth may not be a good thing for people of our status. My mother, brother and Xiao Yuanhe all agreed with my father's point of view.

Xiao Yuanhe likes to wander around with nothing to do, in wandering, the world is like a huge stage, he likes to watch people's various plays.

One of Xiao Yuanhe's cousins ​​said that he is a shrewd and cold fool who looks at the colorful life indifferently.In fact, what he said was not quite right. Xiao Yuanhe was actually very enthusiastic and cheerful. He always looked like a frivolous ruffian with a smile on his face (Xiao Yuanhe said: Of course it was my old lady who wronged me), and he didn’t feel cold. He just has no interest in a prosperous but hypocritical life.

Since Xiao Yuanhe became an adult at the age of 15, he began to follow his father and mother to go out and roam, because there is a stable brother at home, he doesn't have to worry about being caught by his parents, and they themselves have not been seen for years.

He likes to look around, not because he likes to see scenic spots, but because he simply hates Miaodu and wants to go out and see life elsewhere.

However, in fact, life is the same everywhere, very boring, the more prosperous the city, the more disgusting the crime and hypocrisy inside, of course, for him, the drama he can see is more exciting.

After visiting the prefectures and counties around Miaodu, Xiao Yuanhe began to explore farther places, walking slowly like an invasion.

At the age of 19, he came to Anzhou in the south. This is a city with heavy water and land transportation. There is a river leading directly to the sea in the southeast, and the goods from the north and the south are collected and distributed here.

There is actually nothing interesting here in Anzhou, but he was entrusted by his cousin to inspect the bank points here for him.Cousin Xiao Yuantu is a close branch of the royal family. His father and elder brother both serve in the court. He himself is not interested in official career, but he does a good job in business.

My cousin's Chint Bank is the largest bank in Dashang's country, and it has branches in many major cities across the country.In fact, Xiao Yuanhe didn't need to do anything, he just helped to see if there were any major problems in the bank.

After staying in Anzhou for more than a month, winter is coming, and he has to go back to Miao and wait for the Chinese New Year. The Chinese New Year is actually a very boring thing.

However, in a small town called Wu County under the rule of Anzhou, he met an interesting person.It was in a small restaurant, Xiao Yuanhe ordered wine and drank it boredly, and the sound of Yiyi singing opera came from the theater opposite.He noticed a young boy sitting on the window seat, about 12 years old, very thin, holding an equally thin doll in his arms, they should be two brothers.

The boy was obviously not listening to a show, but was just warming his hands with a warm teacup, and then covered the red face of the little baby in his arms with his warm hands, and the little baby cheerfully covered his face with his little hand , he cursed softly with a smile.

Xiao Yuanhe looked envious for some reason, although he was always favored at home, his parents and brothers and sisters had never treated him with such tenderness. As an encouragement, in the final analysis, I was still bound by those so-called royal etiquette dogmas.Even though he is no different from a commoner, he still has to abide by the majesty of a child of the royal family, which is ridiculous and sad.

The waiter was impatient to change the water for him, he still didn't notice it, this little boy looked familiar, he must have seen it somewhere, he looked at the ordinary street scene with interest, two round The round and big eyes are full of light and flowing joy and satisfaction.

Maybe Xiao Yuanhe stared at him for too long, the boy noticed his gaze, his eyes were full of guard and displeasure, and there was invisible provocation like a little beast ready to pounce to fight the enemy at any time, so cute Extremely!

Oh, he remembered, this young boy was the one he met in Zhengtai Bank not long after he came to Wuxian County. The young man also stared at him provocatively like now.His eyes are very clear and clean, but they are sharp and shrewd, not at all like a mountain village boy who has never seen the world.

Xiao Yuanhe couldn't help but want to tease him, and invited him to come and talk to him, but during the whole process, he was only interested in the dishes on the table, and the eyes looking at the dishes were really like a puppy.

Xiao Yuanhe invited him to eat food as a joke, and he picked up the chopsticks and ate without any politeness. The cute appearance with his cheeks puffed up made people couldn't help but want to pamper and care for him.

In the spring of the second year, Xiao Yuanhe went to Hongzhou in the south again, and after playing for more than two months, he began to travel all the way north.

When he arrived at the boundary of Anzhou, Xiao Yuanhe suddenly remembered the Wu County he had been to last year, and that interesting young man, so he detoured to Mingxia Village to see the lotus, then turned to Dieshan Village, imagining when he saw him Surprised and stunned, Xiao Yuanhe was overjoyed.

But obviously, he didn't receive the expected effect.Their village was busy with harvesting and sowing. For the arrival of noble son Xiao Yuanhe, people showed indifference beyond Xiao Yuanhe's imagination.

As for that young man, there was only a flash of surprise in his eyes, but more of a refusal of "Don't come in the way".It's really interesting, it's rare to be hated by others, Xiao Yuanhe thought resentfully.

There were actually only two brothers and a servant in his family. There were many families who lost their parents when they were young and only had children. However, as a farmer in a mountain village, it was rare to have a servant in his family.Is there an interesting story in this? !

When he lived in the boy's house, Xiao Yuanhe found that he didn't seem to treat the servant as a servant, but like an elder of his own family.Seeing them get along like a family, no, it is better than a family, the scholarly family is like relatives and friends, working together, chatting happily, taking care of each other, happy for the smallest things in life, surrounding each other every day Eating at a small table, Xiao Yuanhe felt sad and envious for some reason.

He saw them living so vividly and truly, working hard for the future he planned and imagined, ordinary and plain, but beautiful and warm.

This should be what other people call happiness, Xiao Yuanhe actually felt very unaccustomed to being in other people's happiness, what he was used to watching was the great joys and sorrows in the world, the ups and downs of a drama is worth watching play.

However, this time he wanted to stay, to see the mediocre parents in this rural farmhouse, and to feel a little more real happiness, even if it was just as a passer-by.

It's not that Xiao Yuanhe doesn't believe in happiness, but he doesn't believe that he can have happiness.For a person who plays games like him, everything in the world is just a play.How can people who are difficult to enter the drama have real happiness?

Xiao Yuanhe intervened in the life of their family through the identity of a co-resident, followed the boy with a ruthless face, teased him, irritated him, and every time he saw his eyebrows and eyes wrinkled together, he felt very depressed. very good.

Xiao Yuanhe himself felt that he was a little abnormal.

But the feeling of teasing him and making him emotionally ups and downs is really good and vivid, and it is also a happy thing to follow him to get busy every day.

He is really an easy-to-satisfy person. It should be said that the people in the country are easy-to-satisfy people. He picked a handful of better wild vegetables, caught a few small fish in the stream, and even opened a few more cucumber vines. A branch of flowers can make him happy for a long time.

Gradually, Xiao Yuanhe could also experience that kind of joy.

Following him up the mountain to pick wild fruits, to pick wild vegetables in the fields, to help him chop firewood and carry loads, the young man seemed surprised that he could do such hard work with ease, and looked over with unabashed admiration and...envy?At that time, he was always a little smug, hehe, his internal strength has been practiced since he was a child, and even his master praised him.

Qingshan said that he became happy and relaxed, and also became very humble and diligent, and he was not afraid that he would not be able to get his wife in the future.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanhe smashed the little bastard with the melon in his hand on the spot, and the last piece of melon flew out of the door and hit something. After a while, the boy's curse rushed in: Xiao Yuan Heh, you prodigal son, throwing my melons, you don't think it's hard to get things, don't you?Tomorrow you will fetch me water and water melons!

Oh, carrying water, why does he always like to ask him to carry water so much!

But, okay, the next day Xiao Yuanhe obediently followed the boy to pick water and water vegetables in the vegetable field.

After going through it a few times, Xiao Yuanhe understood that since the young man discovered that he had "great strength" (actually, it was internal strength), he liked to ask him to do some strenuous tasks, such as carrying water.

It seems that love to show off is really not a good thing.

Xiao Yuanhe felt that something was wrong with him, so he happily helped him do it every time, but when he followed him to pick those fresh and tender cucumbers and beans, and carried them home with him full, his heart was full of This pure joy is a kind of happiness that he can't buy even if he spends thousands of taels of silver.

After staying for a long time, Xiao Yuanhe began to like this small mountain village, the sky here is always blue, surrounded by green hills in all directions, there is a sense of security sitting in a well and looking at the sky.The air is clear and fresh, although sometimes there is a strange smell, he complained several times, but the young man said that the strange smell is a unique treasure of the countryside, with these strange smells, there are such green vegetables and fruits, fields and grasslands. , have such a fresh and comfortable air.

What Xiao Yuanhe likes most is the mountains and fields here, to paraphrase the words of a young man: this is simply a natural treasure.He likes the quiet and peaceful moments when the morning sun rises and the mist surrounds the mountain village. People have not yet woken up from their sleep, and they are like newborn babies in the tranquility.When the morning light is revealed, the entire mountain village seems to be slowly lifted with a mysterious and sacred veil, which makes people want to hold their breath and look forward to it with joy.

He also likes the dusk when the night falls in this mountain village. The sun's rays slowly move from the front of the house to the fields and forests in the distance, and finally disappear behind the towering mountain peaks.The sounds of frogs and insects filled the area. In the twilight, there was the sound of people in the village calling their sons and daughters home for dinner. The smell of fireworks filled the mountains, entangled with the night dew in the mountains, dispelling the heat of the day.The wind gently blows across the fields, and the layers of rice grains undulate like green waves rushing into the distance, as if they are also looking for a home.He stood by the door of the small courtyard, and when he heard the voice from the courtyard calling him to come back for dinner, his heart was filled with emotion and admiration as quickly as the waves of rice.

He found that he was becoming weaker, and gradually no longer just wanted to watch the drama on the stage coldly as before. Now, he wants to participate in the warm life of this young man, and let him pass on some of his beauty to him .

Just let him pass it on to him, Xiao Yuanhe thought.

He found that the young man seemed to be hiding some secret, because sometimes he not only said some strange words that people could not understand, but also was in a daze, with distant and hazy nostalgia and sadness on his face.

Xiao Yuanhe thought, he must have remembered something, missed someone.

At that time, he just wanted to rush forward, make him laugh hard, make him angry, smash the sad and nostalgic expression on his face, and make him forget the things in his heart. Let him only think about him when he is around!

But he didn't do that after all, because he didn't know what the consequences would be if he did that. In fact, he was also a cowardly person. He only wanted to watch other people's dramas, but avoided his own heart.

The life in the countryside is simple and pure, Xiao Yuanhe thought he could live like this forever, but his cousin came.

Xiao Yuantu brought a piece of news that forced him to leave—his father was poisoned, and he had to rush home.

Time was too short, it was too late to say anything to him, Xiao Yuanhe only said to him: I will come back.

Yes, he will come back, he wants to stay by this boy's side, this is the answer that came out of his heart when he was about to leave.

43 Mid-Autumn Festival

"Boom..." There were several thunderclaps in the sky one after another, and the rain suddenly became heavier.

It has been sweltering and hot for more than ten days, and it rained heavily today, and the sultry heat in the air finally washed away with the heavy rain.

Feng Ye hugged Xiao Xing'er and covered himself with a cool quilt and lay on the bamboo slum, watching the torrential rain knocking the saplings in the yard upside down, the rainwater trickling down from the eaves and forming strips on the ground. The small stream then fills the drain.

It is best to sleep in this kind of weather, the sound of rushing rain can make people fall asleep, Xing'er fell asleep after playing in Feng Ye's arms for a while, Feng Ye fell asleep watching the rain outside up.

It was already noon when I woke up, the clouds and rain had already settled outside, and the sun was shining on the ground again. The wet ground felt like it had been washed clean.

The air after the rain is very refreshing, just as refreshing as when you have worked hard all day and then took a cold shower. The smell of earth and grass in the air is very strong. It smells as if you can imagine countless new lives Like quietly emerging from the ground.Dragonflies are flying high in the sky, birds are jumping and singing among the dripping branches, and even the green grass on the ground has changed from its previous drooping appearance to green.

The water in the fields outside was about to overflow the ridges of the fields. Many people dug deep drains in their fields, and Mu Qing also went to deal with the paddy fields at home.

Feng Ye asked Xing'er to stay in the house to play, and he went to the old yard to check the situation first.

The thatch on the roof was replaced a few days ago, and it was fixed with bamboo and bamboo strips, so it neither leaked nor was it blown away by strong winds.But the torrential rain drenched the adobe walls almost completely, but luckily the water had not spread to the interior of the house.

Feng Ye is extremely thankful that he now has a new house that can shelter him from the wind and rain. Otherwise, in such a stormy weather, living in such a place will definitely cause rheumatism.

The bamboo house where the rabbits were held was also soaked, but fortunately Mu Qing moved the rabbits to the house where the chickens and ducks were held before it rained.When Feng Ye entered the house, he saw two big rabbits with six and a half big rabbits and four little rabbits quietly gnawing on the green grass in the corner, two hens, a pheasant and a hen duck with a piece of chicks The ducklings mingled together, and the straw on the ground had been paved into a nest and a hole in the west. Some other roosters and hens paced back and forth on the ground, and some stayed on the wooden shelf to comb their feathers.

Seeing that the poultry were all fine, Feng Ye took a shovel and dredged the gutters around the house again to drain the accumulated water in the small yard, and opened the windows of the house to ventilate the moisture.

The melons and beans in the vegetable garden also looked very energetic after being watered by a heavy rain. The little cucumbers with water droplets looked watery and cute. Feng Ye carried the vegetable basket while picking beans and cucumbers, and washed them down from the rain The melon vines lead up.

The newly grown radish seedlings and cabbages were also tottered by the rain. Feng Ye pulled out the weeds for them, and applied a thin layer of plant ash. After absorbing the rain and some fertilizer, they would grow faster.Now June and July are not suitable for growing vegetables. The cabbage that is carefully served does not grow well. It attracts insects and grows slowly. Radish seedlings are the kind that only eat radishes that do not grow. It is easier to grow than cabbage, but it is also very difficult. It is difficult to grow well, except for water spinach.

Regardless of whether they are planted on dry land or in puddles, all water spinach grows fast and well. I don’t know whether it was enough fertilizer when the field was soaked in the windy night, or the vitality of the vegetable itself Very strong.

Fengye planted two varieties of water spinach, one with blue-white stems and slender leaves that can be planted on dry land, and the other with short green stems and drop-shaped leaves that can be planted in wetlands. Now the three members of Guangfengye's family can't eat it at all. So every time the vegetables grew (zhang) long (chang), Feng Ye would cut them and send them to other families in the village.

Taking advantage of the rain, the soil on the ground was loose, and the wind and night cultivated the pepper field finely.

Most of the chili seedlings planted this spring have already grown a small amount of chili peppers, just enough for Feng Ye to use as ingredients, chopped peppers, and pickled peppers.

Now all the wild peppers are planted in Fengyedi, but here is a kind of hot pepper called red pepper, which is longer and larger than the pepper, and smaller than the green pepper in the previous life. It is said that it was grown in the previous dynasty It is said that from the west of the mainland, people in the southern border of Dashang do not like spicy food very much, so there are very few people who grow red peppers here, and there is no one in Dieshan Village.

At first, Feng Ye thought that the knowledge of chili peppers here was still at the same level as that of the unknown species—potatoes, but once at the market, Feng Ye found that a villager was selling a small bag of red peppers. People don't like to grow it, but I heard that people in the capital area in the north like spicy food very much.

That is to say, everyone has their own love for vegetables and radishes. People in the south also love spicy food. Maybe those who don’t eat chili peppers just don’t know how to make chili peppers taste better.

This kind of red pepper is the most important raw material for making chili sauce, but Feng Ye has limited vegetable land, and it is still impossible to grow red peppers in large areas. , So Feng Ye asked Uncle Li to buy these peppers in his shop, and then Feng Ye bought them to make hot sauce.It's a pity that the people here are still in the initial stage of understanding of chili peppers. Raw materials are extremely scarce.

However, many people in Wu County are now very impressed with the chili sauce with roasted pork and fried chicken bones. It is not just that the supply is in short supply. Uncle Li said that several groups of outside businessmen have expressed their desire to buy chili sauce and chopped chili sauce in large quantities. Pepper will.a family of scholars

Many travelers and merchants who travel around all the year round like to take pickles, sauerkraut, pickles and other small dishes with them and eat them as dry food, which is simple, convenient and economical.However, the side dishes made by the people here are very simple in taste, that is, salty. The most delicious is the dried pickles made with bean paste, but the taste is not much better.Therefore, the unique chili sauce made by Feng Ye is very popular.

The chili sauce made by Feng Ye is delicious even without meat, because it contains spice powder made of cardamom, cinnamon sticks, mushrooms, cumin, etc., which is equivalent to adding modern monosodium glutamate and chicken powder , is completely a small amount of fine ingredients, and most of these spices can be grown by oneself or collected on the mountain, so although the price is slightly higher, it is still within the acceptable range of the common people.

Feng Ye does not intend to sell chili sauce as his main source of income, so although the market prospect is very good, he is not in a hurry to expand the planting area of ​​chili peppers or buy red peppers. Anyway, he is living a good life now. There is no need to be too busy, as long as you have enough money, it will flow slowly, so let's take our time.

Because it was raining and the weather was slightly cooler, Fengye decided to make another meal of instant noodles in the evening, Xing'er had already talked about it several times in the past few days.

Feng Ye used the spare ribs left over from lunch and his own pickled peppers to make two pork ribs flavored with pickled peppers, and made some shredded pork pickled vegetables for Xing'er, and they ate them profusely.

Feng Ye remembered the time when Xiao Yuanhe was still here, everyone enjoyed the stewed chicken noodles with mushrooms. At that time, Xiao Yuanhe looked like he was still satisfied after eating two bowls full. If he comes next time, he will come again Give him a meal, he is actually a delicious ghost.Even his little servant Qingshan, he was not there to eat bamboo rice, and then he found out about it and kept mumbling for several days, really, that's how birds of a feather flock together.

-

After a heavy rain, the weather returned to scorching heat. However, fortunately, it rained several times within a few days. Each time, the sky was full of dark clouds and stormy, and the rain came and went quickly.Because of several consecutive rains, the sweet potato vines in the field grew rapidly, and of course the grass in the field also grew lush.The elders in the village said that this year's sweet potatoes may not grow well, because there is too much rain, which not only easily drains nutrients, but also encourages the growth of potato vines.

Feng Ye ignores these, since he doesn't have many family members, sweet potatoes must be enough to eat, anyway, it's not that there is no food to eat, besides, the pigs, cattle, sheep and rabbits in his family can all be fed sweet potato vines, which grow quickly There's nothing wrong with that either.

The few sunflowers randomly scattered in the yard by Feng Ye bloomed, and each of them had large flower discs hanging from the tall branches, making Xing'er so happy that she had to look at it several times a day.

The rice in the field is an important period for the grains to produce starch. At this time, it is time to fertilize them in time, so Feng Ye and Mu Qing are busy decomposing the manure, mixing plant ash, controlling the moisture in the field, pulling out the barnyard grass, and fertilizing.

The two of them were busy for several days, and when they were free, Feng Ye realized that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming.

Offering mooncakes, making dumplings, eating glutinous rice balls, and drinking osmanthus wine during the Mid-Autumn Festival are the traditions of the Dashang Kingdom. The dumplings are made of peanuts wrapped in flour and then wrapped in syrup. The osmanthus wine is osmanthus wine. The combination of these things means It means that the flowers are good and the moon is full, the moon is full and people are full, beautiful festivals, and beautiful blessings, which contain people's infinite yearning for a better life.

Two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Feng Ye dragged Mu Qing to the city to buy things. Moon cakes must be bought, sesame seeds wrapped in glutinous rice balls must be bought, and sweet-scented osmanthus wine must be bought. Hearing the name, Feng Yeguang thought that this wine must be delicious. I had already planned to buy two more jars.

The moon cakes at this time looked similar to modern ones, but due to the complicated materials and exquisite craftsmanship, it was difficult for ordinary people to make them by themselves. Most of them are invited to special workshops for making cakes and pastries, so people can only buy moon cakes from merchants.Feng Ye looked at those ancient mooncakes with exquisite and complicated patterns, but they didn’t look delicious. Out of caution, he didn’t buy more. He only wanted five. He ordered one each for red and white lotus seed paste, red bean paste, fruit paste, and char siew with five kernels. 35 Wen.

It's a pity that there are no Shatian pomelo, Shatian tangerine, pineapple, grapes and other fruits here, otherwise Feng Ye would like to buy more fruits to eat. Feng Ye and Mu Qing traveled all over the county and bought some mandarins, oranges, pomegranates , watermelon and a small handful of sugar cane, pears and peaches are definitely not necessary to buy. There are many at home, and now sand pears are ripe, sweet and moist, and they are free.

After buying food, Feng Ye went to the cloth shop again, and bought autumn clothes for everyone in the family. After Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather will gradually get colder, so it is necessary to buy some seasonal clothes.

Because it was approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were a lot of people going to the market in all the towns and villages, and it was the same in Dieshan Village, so Feng Ye hurriedly finished shopping without waiting for the ox cart in the village, and the two adults and one child walked home.At this time, Feng Ye missed the scene when Xiao Yuanhe lived in his house, traveling by car and horse.

44 Drunk

"Wow, brother! Look, I found two big ones!" Xiao Xing'er shouted at Feng Ye excitedly holding a big snail in one hand.

"Hehe, it's so big, our Xing'er is really powerful! Be careful, stand firm, and don't fall into the water."

"Well, I know brother."

The two brothers continued to touch the snails in the paddy field.

I don't know whose family first threw the small snails into the fields, but now there are many large and small snails growing in many paddy fields in this valley, and there are also snails in the two acres of paddy fields of Feng Ye's family. At that time, he picked up a lot of big ones and made spicy snails for his family once.In the past few months, he hasn't picked it up again, just to raise the snails bigger and more for the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's a pity that he didn't buy big crabs and prawns, or he would eat them with wine. It's beautiful.

I picked up half a bucket of snails, put them in clean water, and changed the water twice a day. When they vomited out the silt, it was just the Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, as soon as the sun went down, the big and round moon hung high above the treetops.

Feng Ye's family took a bath early, and moved all kinds of food to the stone table in the front yard, a plate of moon cakes, a plate of dumpling, a bowl of sesame glutinous rice balls, a jar of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and several kinds of fruits. Moon, after burning joss sticks, paper money and setting off firecrackers, the three of them sat around and ate.

The sesame glutinous rice balls boiled in ginger syrup are sweet and glutinous. After eating two bowls of glutinous rice balls, I drank sweet-scented osmanthus wine with crispy dumplings and snails. The taste was so delicious.Feng Ye took a sip of the wine and sighed in his heart.

Xing'er, the little thing, saw adults drinking, and he wanted to drink too. Feng Ye dipped the wine into his mouth with chopsticks. He just licked it, then pushed away with a wrinkled face, and turned to concentrate on dealing with the food in his bowl. river snail.

After being boiled thoroughly, the snails fried with shredded bamboo shoots, star anise, peppercorns, fennel, sage leaves, frog grass and chili are even better than the ones that Zhifengye ate in seafood stalls in his previous life. Eat a bite of snail meat , drink a sip of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, chew a dumpling, and gossiping with the family sitting around, life is really happy.

The moon slowly rose to the sky, and the cold moonlight covered the world with a hazy brilliance. Although it was dim, it illuminated everything clearly. A few fireflies were dancing in the grass, and autumn insects were chirping along with the sound coming from the village. The distant cheers and laughter made people feel that everything was so unreal except themselves.

Looking at the round moon, Feng Ye unexpectedly thought of his previous life, wondering if the time here is the same as the earth in the 21st century?Now it's the Mid-Autumn Festival here, and it has been almost a year since I came to this world.A year is enough to forget a lot of things, and now he really regards himself as a person in this time and space, that distant hometown, those relatives who will never see each other rarely think of it, and they should have forgotten him Alright.

If this space-time and that space-time are the same moon, then let the moon carry blessings, wishing the full moon to spend a good time and drink a cup of beauty together.

When Feng Ye was drunk and his eyes were hazy, he suddenly felt as if he was dreaming, because he seemed to see Xiao Yuanhe standing in front of him with a smile.

He shook his head and scolded himself for being stupid. On this great reunion night, Xiao Yuanhe must have spent it with his family at home, so why would he come all the way to this small mountain village to spend it with someone he hasn't known for long?Really!It seems that I really drank too much, and I have phantoms.

He stretched out his hand to wipe his face, stood up staggeringly, and was supported by a person before he took a step, and smelled a faint fragrance that seemed familiar to him.

who is that?She actually put on perfume, could it be Mu Qing?He lay on the man's chest, his eyes wide open, trying to get close to see who it was.

Feng Ye squinted his eyes, and his face was almost close to the man's, but the shadows in front of him were overlapping and still shaking, he really couldn't see clearly.

Xiao Yuanhe looked at the little man in his arms who couldn't stop moving around with a smile on his face. He rushed here just to see him earlier, and even though he was standing in front of him, he still doubted his authenticity.Seeing his silly appearance, with both hands holding his skirt, with a silly smile on his delicate face, he was appraising with his big eyes dazed, and one hand was stretched out to caress his face indiscriminately. The lips muttered softly.

"Strange? It seems...it's really Xiao, er, Yuanhe."

It's so cute, Xiao Yuanhe looked at him, the smile in his eyes deepened, he stretched out his hand to pinch the nose of the person in his arms, and twisted it gently, "Hey, little pig, wake up."

Feng Ye shook his head to get rid of him, but failed to do so after shaking his head a few times, so he stretched out his left hand and waved it, with a sound of "pa", Feng Ye slapped Xiao Yuanhe's chin.

"Pfft..." Mu Qing, who had just settled Xing'er, saw this scene as soon as he came out, and sneered out of embarrassment.

Qing Shan, who was also busy in the world, was dumbfounded, "Young master was beaten? Poor young master, you rushed here without stopping, but you were beaten by Mr. Li, oh..." He was thinking in a daze, Mu Qing saw him With a blank look, he had to smile and remind him to wash and eat.

"But, young master..."

"It's okay, your young master will take care of it. You're tired too. Go eat something and rest."

"Oh, well, thank you, Uncle Qing!" The servant hesitated and left.
