Little wealth

The day after the relatives in Anyang arrived in Kyoto was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In previous years, the whole family celebrated festivals in their hometown in Anyang, but this was the first time that the whole family spent holidays here in Kyoto.But as long as the family is together, it doesn't matter where the festival is held.

It happened to be the middle of the month when there was a holiday, and the court gave these officials two days off. Sun Nian didn't have to go to the Imperial Academy to report early in the morning, but stayed at home to spend the holiday with his family.

Early in the morning, when the sun was just bright outside, he heard the sound of children laughing outside the yard. At this time, he was still lying on the bed in the house. He had lived in the Hou Mansion for so many years, and it was the first time he felt that this place also had a home. a feeling of.Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing. Home is where relatives are present. If relatives are not present, no matter how big the yard is, it will look spacious.

Hearing the sound of everyone getting up outside, he didn't continue to sleep on the bed, but got up and went outside.When he came to the main hall, he saw his father was setting up breakfast. Sun Nian called out, "Daddy."

On the table is the breakfast just served, steamed dumplings, cakes, steamed stuffed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, porridge, water and side dishes, covering a large table, all of which are still steaming.

Josh was sending people to call everyone to have breakfast, when he saw his son who lived in the next yard coming, he said with a smile: "Ah Nian is up too, it happened to be for breakfast, let's have breakfast with everyone. "As long as their whole family is at home, generally everyone will have three meals a day and eat together. Unless everyone is not at home, those who are at home will eat at home, and those who go out will eat outside.

In the past few years, the second uncle's family has lived outside, and several children in their family have also gone out to study, so they are not at home very often, so they have to come back during the holidays, so that the whole family can eat together.

Sun Nian knew these habits at home, so whenever he returned home from outside, he would try his best to be with his family.Seeing the food on the table, he rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Today's breakfast is really rich."

"When will we be more or less like this? You usually rushed out and ran away without eating carefully." Seeing the child's appearance, Josh couldn't help laughing, and said, "Let's have breakfast, we'll eat it later." Let’s make mooncakes together, and I’ve already asked people to prepare everything in advance. I’ll ask you to invite Uncle Bai and Nuomi to come over to our house to play together, and you can stay home to receive them later.”

Sun Nian smiled, it was true, these days he rushed to the Imperial Academy every morning to order Mao, and every morning he ate two bites before leaving in a hurry.

"A few days ago, the palace sent someone to say, let's go to the palace today, your uncle and your uncle are here, you, your father and Erbao are staying at home, I will I will take Huanhuanxixi and the others to the palace for a while, and I will be back in a short time, and I will leave it to you at home, and if there are guests, you can greet them well." They didn't know that Anyang's relatives would Arrive the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.But now that everyone is here, they naturally want their family to celebrate the festival at the Hou's Mansion. If they all go to the palace, there will be no one at the Hou's Mansion to entertain everyone.

When Anyang's family came to Kyoto, they also lived in their Hou's Mansion. The Hou's Mansion has many yards and a large place. They are not afraid of having no room to live in. The family lives together and it is lively. Josh likes everyone living here.

"Okay, Dad, you go, Er Bao and I will stay at home and take care of the house." Sun Nian has no objection to this.Compared with entering the palace, he prefers to play with his relatives and younger brothers at home, and wait for his little brother to come over later.

Just as they finished talking about this matter, other adults and children also arrived one after another, and Er Bao was the last one to come.

A large group of people sat down around a big table, but the table still couldn't accommodate so many people, so a few children were assigned to sit at the small table next to it, and Erbao went there to take the younger brothers to eat.

After breakfast, they put the things in the house and prepared to make moon cakes. Josh took the twins back to the house and changed their clothes to prepare to enter the palace. The carriage went out.

Not long after his father and two younger brothers left in the carriage, another carriage came over. The person Sun Nian went out to pick up in person stretched out his hand, led his uncle Bai out of the carriage, and went to lead the younger brother behind him. Come down, "Uncle Bai, you came a step late, just in time my father went into the palace with Huanxixi."

"Oh, the queen asked your father to enter the palace, right?" Bai Luoxi knew the relationship between Josh and the queen, and knew that the queen would probably ask Josh to enter the palace on such a day.But this morning, he knew from the people sent by the Hou Mansion that there were people coming from Anyang, and he also wanted to come to see everyone, and it happened that he hadn't seen these old acquaintances for a long time, "Let them go to them, we are here Ours. Didn’t your Ah Mo and Ah Yan come here? I just happened to meet them.”

Fu Siran glanced at the young man who led him out of the carriage, and the young man happened to look at him too.When the two looked at each other, Sun Nian gave his little brother a bright smile, and said to Uncle Bai: "Yes, Ah and Uncle are here, Uncle Bai, let's go inside quickly, everyone I made mooncakes inside."

"Oh, it seems that we came at the right time, so let's go in quickly." Bai Luoxi noticed the exchange of glances between the two children, and just pretended not to see them, and let them go.

Sun Nian led a group of people into the Hou's mansion, deliberately walked to his little brother's side, and was still talking to his uncle Bai all the way. When the adults didn't notice their side, he deliberately reached out to hook his little brother. brother's hand.Fu Siran glared at the man, pushed away the hand that was reaching out, and glared at the man again, this man dared not reach out again.

A large group of people in the yard are already making moon cakes, and there are several plates on the table, which are filled with materials for making moon cakes.

"I really didn't expect that we would come from Anyang to Kyoto to make mooncakes."

"Yeah, if we didn't come to Anyang, we should also help out at the mooncake factory at this time."

"The mooncakes made by our factory this year must be very popular. I wonder if there are any in Kyoto."

"There should be. Don't many businessmen come to us to get the goods and sell them outside? They will definitely be sold here in Kyoto."

The adults were talking while making mooncakes. A few years ago, they opened a mooncake factory in Sihe Village, which was put together by people in their village. There are also several other factories. There are quite a few in their village. Everyone has a joint stock, so those factories make money, and the people in their village who participate in the stock get dividends every year.Even if the people in their village don't do anything now, they can live a good life relying on the dividends from several factories.

However, there are also many people in their village who work in the factory, especially before the Mid-Autumn Festival every year. They rush to make moon cakes. If there is a shortage of manpower in the factory, they will help out, so many people in their village have learned how to make moon cakes.

A few boys were also helping, and even the mooncakes printed by little Axiu with molds were very beautiful, and they were placed on the plate one by one.Only the youngest, Alin, was not very good at helping with work, running around the table.

"Stop running around, come here and sit down." Aqiu gave the child a look, and little Alin immediately stopped his hands and feet, and obediently returned to his father's side.

Chen Tuhu also helped Fu Lang to stare at his son, and then looked at the little Axiu who was quietly helping to make mooncakes, and changed his eyes with a soft look, as if my son had just grown up, but he was still quiet and well-behaved My little brother, every time he felt that they must have chosen the name they had given the child well. This child has been quiet and well-behaved since he was a child.As for his son, every time he was scolded by Fu Lang for being mischievous, he would help pass a stick to him, but most of the time, he was stared at by Fu Lang, and he felt that he was wronged.

Little Alin didn't dare to run around anymore after receiving the eyes from his fathers.

Seeing that his son was well-behaved, Aqiu's eyes softened, and he said to the child, "Sit here obediently, and I will eat the mooncakes when they are ready. Don't run around and affect other people's work."

"Yes." Little Alin answered well, but before he had time to sit down for a cup of tea, he ran outside again with his two puppies.

Just when little Alin was running outside, he saw his elder brother bringing someone in, so he rushed over and hugged his brother's feet, raised his head and shouted, "Brother."

"Why did you run out?" Sun Nian bent down to pick up the little brother and asked.

"Which family does this child belong to? He looks so good-looking." Seeing that the child looked a little strange, Bai Luoxi couldn't tell which family it was for a while.Ever since they left Anyang with their Master Fu, they never went back to Anyang, and then followed their Master Fu back to the capital, which was even farther away from Anyang, so he had only heard about it from Josh all these years. He talked about some things in the family, but he had never seen any of the children who were born later.

"It's the child of Uncle Chen and Uncle Aqiu." Sun Nian hugged the little guy in his arms, not afraid of people when he saw the little guy, and looked at others curiously.Seeing that Uncle Bai was still puzzled, he explained, "That's the child born after my uncle's father married again."

"Oh. Now that you said that, I know." Bai Luoxi suddenly realized, thinking of the brother with a scar on his face who always followed Josh, who seemed to be called Aqiu. He remembered that brother back then He looks good, but his face is ruined by a scar. The more he looks at him, the more he finds that this kid's face looks a little familiar. It's no wonder.

Fu Siran reached out to touch the child, and when he saw the child smiling at him, a smile appeared on his face too.
