Through the cultivation of tang pear leaves rouge color

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion, so it should be very festive and happy, but Song Li was exhausted this day.

He has been busy with dinner and dinner at night, and he has to make many kinds of moon cakes. When they are still fresh, Mrs. Du asks his family servants to deliver them to neighbors and people with good relations in baskets. The shopkeepers in the shop gave it to their families, and even more famous families like Wu Jinwen's family had to deliver it in person, so this day was a very hectic day.

Uncle, Dong Wu, and uncle's friends were not idle either. The two guests didn't seem to come to uncle's house just for the sake of being guests. They should have the intention of cooperating with uncle. They came to see the shops and workshops here, so they were Went out early in the morning.

On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone in the shop gave some holiday money in the afternoon and then it was a holiday. My aunt also prepared crabs and chrysanthemum wine for the shopkeeper and accountant in the shop. When they brought mooncakes to the master , and my aunt gave these things as a gift in return.

Those shopkeepers and accountants were still sitting at my aunt's house, drinking a cup of tea and talking a few words before leaving.

Song Li had to think that the businessmen at this time were much more generous than those in his previous life. At least the benefits were much better, and more often than not, they were like friends. Generally, when a family encountered any problems, other families would help them.

This is a society that relies more on human affection.

Most of the mooncakes sent out at home are stuffed with Song Li tune. In addition to sesame, red bean paste, salted egg, pork, beef, and ham stuffing, there are also pork mooncakes with pickled vegetables, and mooncakes made with wild vegetables and pork. Various styles, very delicious taste.

Because uncle and the others didn't come back to eat at noon, everyone was so busy that they didn't even care about lunch, and only ate moon cakes to satisfy their hunger.

The little girl Wu Xuezhen sat on a small bench under the eaves outside the kitchen, her mouth never stopped, and she was the first to taste every pot of mooncakes.

Because there are moon cakes sent from other people's homes, all of them are beautifully decorated and placed in the small room next to the living room, which is almost full of moon cakes.

A person from Dayao Village came to the county town to buy things, and when he came to visit and deliver things, Song Li packed a very large basket of moon cakes for that person and asked him to take it back to give it away.

In the evening, Uncle and Dong Wu finally came back. Seeing them come back, the kitchen began to stir up hot dishes.

As soon as Dong Wu got home, he came to see Song Li. Seeing that Song Li was busy in the kitchen with sweat on his brow, his heart ached. He wiped his sweat with his sleeve and said, "Sit down and rest for a while, I'll finish the job." .”

But his aunt refused to let him do it, and said, "It's a big festival, why are you here in the kitchen, there are guests at home, let the guests watch the joke."

So Dong Wu had to forget it. Although Song Li felt tired, he himself liked cooking very much. After a busy day, he didn't feel bored, but rather happy.

The aunt told Dong Wu, and he took Dong Wu to the back of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard, saying, "I'm fine, don't worry about me, go and accompany the guests. You can try it later." Try the mooncakes I made, they are delicious, that girl Xiaozhen can't stop eating."

Dong Wu's face was full of pity, so he agreed, and went to the living room to talk with the guests.

Because Wu Xuezhen ate too much mooncakes, she didn't eat dinner, and her stomach was bloated and uncomfortable. During dinner, her aunt was not safe, so she hurriedly went to make soup for Wu Xuezhen to digest food. Song Li, as a junior, naturally couldn't let the elders go alone I was busy, so I went to help.

So Song Li and Du Shi didn't eat much for dinner.

But I don’t feel very hungry. It’s not bad to eat dim sum mooncakes and crabs while watching the moon on an empty stomach.

After dinner, the moon had already reached the treetops. The moon was round, big, and extremely bright. Sitting in the yard, I could even distinguish the various grasses in the flower garden.

In the front yard, a table was placed, an incense burner and a sacrifice tablet were placed, and fruits and moon cakes were offered. After the worship, they sat together to enjoy the moon and chat, eat moon cakes and fruits, steamed crabs, and drank chrysanthemum wine.

Uncle, aunt and guests were talking, Song Li and Dong Wu were sitting in the shadow under the eaves, little girl Wu Xuezhen was not allowed to eat because of her stomach upset, and she went to bed early after taking medicine Now, there is no need to worry about this little girl doing bad things again.

Dong Wu and Song Li sat in the yard for a while. Song Li ate a moon cake and a crab, but didn't dare to drink. Walking and looking at the moon can help you digest food.

When the two went out, the street outside was very bright, and many people lit red lanterns, and many children were running around playing on the street. At this time, the two of them were holding hands and walking on the road without appearing abrupt. , has its own kind of tenderness and romance.

Just walking hand in hand like this, the two of them didn't even talk much, they just walked quietly to the side of the East Street, seeing that the moon had risen so high, Song Li was tired all day, and he didn't have the energy to walk anymore, so he said, " Let's go back!"

Seeing that Song Li looked tired, Dong Wu wanted to carry him back. Song Li originally refused, but seeing Dong Wu's insistence, he had no choice but to climb on Dong Wu's back.

Dong Wu's back was broad and warm, and Song Li unconsciously fell asleep in a daze. In his dream, it was also the Mid-Autumn Festival. When he was young, his mother carried him across the school playground, and his nose was full of the edge of the playground. The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus planted in the flower bed, he looked up and saw the bright moon following his mother's steps, and he asked in a childish voice, "Mom, the moon is following us!"

His mother didn't answer, but hummed a slightly sad tune.

When he was a child, he always spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with his mother. There was no father in it. Most of the time he ate in restaurants outside. When he came home, his mother carried it back until he grew up and his mother could no longer carry it. he.

Thinking of this, the sadness at that time seemed to have penetrated into his bones, making him cry in his dream.

He never cried on Mid-Autumn Festival when he was a child. On the contrary, he was always very happy, because his mother would definitely take him out for a big meal on this day. Only when he grew up did he understand that his mother took him to sit in a lively restaurant on this day The desolation in my heart.

Dong Wu felt that the clothes on his back were wet, and Song Li's low and suppressed crying sound reached his ears.

This had to shock him. Song Li had been very happy since the day, but why he suddenly burst into tears.

He put Song Li down from his back, and then supported him. Song Li was asleep, but now he woke up. He looked at Dong Wu blankly with red eyes. Dong Wu's eyes were full of concern. Reaching out to wipe away the tears on his cheeks, he asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden."

Song Li stared at Dong Wu blankly, as if he didn't quite understand why he was here suddenly. He looked around and saw the houses with white walls and black tiles on both sides of the street, the bright full moon in the sky, and the constant On the stretching bluestone streets, the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus is wafting, and in the silent night, there is this person in front of you.

Only then did he realize his situation, and he couldn't help feeling a sense of dreary in his heart, and suddenly felt very lonely. He thought of his mother, the woman who thought she was lonely and desolate all her life because of love, and he almost trembled. Dong Wu saw him so sad. He hugged him in his arms, stroked his back, and comforted him softly, "If you don't want to say it, forget it! Don't be sad, I'm here!"

His sentence "I am here" seemed to have an unusually firm and heart-warming power, which made Song Li suddenly feel at ease, and said in a bitter voice, "I'm fine, I'm dreaming, when I was young, my mother also recited it like this." Walk me under the moon, but she has been dead for many years."

Song Li burst into tears like this, no need to think about Dong Wu to understand that Song Li must be homesick.At this time when Song Li said it, he just comforted him softly, "I will carry you behind my back in the future, and will always be with you."

Song Li felt sad in Dong Wu's arms for a while, and felt that he had suddenly become a melancholy young man, so he withdrew from Dong Wu's arms, saying, "It's getting late, let's go back quickly!"

Dong Wu agreed, and it was not far from his uncle's house, so he led him back slowly.

The uncles, aunts, and guests in the yard were still talking, and when they saw the two of them coming back, they greeted them to eat again. Song Li said no, Dong Wu also said no, and because Song Li was too sleepy, he and Song Li returned home. I went to sleep in the room, and didn't watch the moon until midnight.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dong Wu was busy with his uncle and two guests for several days, and then he and Song Li went to see the house they decided to buy. Although Song Li thought the house was pretty good, Dong Wu didn't seem to think much of it. Yes, maybe it was because there were too few rooms and the yard was not big enough, so the matter was put on hold, and he had to look at other houses, and Dong Wu didn't have time, so the matter of buying a house couldn't be settled for a while.

Song Li lived in his uncle's house, and Dong Wu went home to deal with family affairs. Originally, his uncle and aunt wanted Song Li to live in their house all the time, but Song Li was not happy, so he made excuses and said he wanted to go home and see Look, after all, he had been out for too long, and he felt uneasy without going back to have a look. Uncle and aunt had no choice but to send him back.

It was Auntie who sent Song Li back, Aunt Fu was with her, and the little girl Wu Xuezhen was also going to visit his house, plus a shop assistant who escorted him along the way, there were five people in total.

When I got home, it was the morning, and Granny Li was drying vegetables in the yard. The vegetables were half-dried and used to make sauerkraut in vats. Seeing a group of people coming in, Granny Li hurried out to welcome them, and happily pulled Du Shi and said, " It's my aunt who came with Song Li. Wu Lang went to the next village to do some business, and he will be back soon."

Song Li put away the things he had brought back from his uncle's house, and looked around his own house. There was no change from when he left, and he felt very at ease in his heart.

After that, I entertained my aunt and the others to sit down, wash their faces, wipe their hands and drink tea.

Chunying also came over from her own house, saw Song Li whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and pulled him to look from top to bottom, sighing, "Song Li, you have grown a lot taller."

Granny Li said on the side, "Didn't she eat well and sleep well at her aunt's house, can she not grow taller?"

When she said this, everyone laughed, and my aunt also sighed, "It does look a little taller."

Everyone said that he had grown taller, and Song Li was naturally very happy. After all, who wants to be a short man, let alone Song Li still wants to grow up to be as tall as Dong Wu.
