It's not the first time for Lu Dongfu to make moon cakes, so the movements are very skillful.

It's just that mooncakes are not easy to make, and there are several flavors to make, so by the time she made them, two hours had passed.

Fortunately, the mooncakes made are very successful, with good color and fragrance, and various patterns on them. Some of them are even engraved with words. Together they are Mid-Autumn Festival reunion.

Lu Dongfu asked Qi Zhongyu to taste one, and Qi Zhongyu was not very impressed with the mooncakes, so he broke them apart, fed half of them to Lu Dongfu, and ate half of them whole, and found that it was not as sweet as it looked, and the bean paste inside was soft and glutinous. It tastes delicious.

Thinking about it, Lu Dongfu's cooking skills are so good that even the mooncakes that Qi Zhongyu doesn't like to eat are delicious.

Qi Zhongyu praised repeatedly, causing Lu Dongfu to show the dimples at the corners of her mouth. They took the mooncake box to the main room and put it away. Lu Dongfu said: "Sir, please wait here for a while, I will go to the room to change and clean up." In the afternoon, let’s go to Sanmei’s place to give gifts first.”

It stands to reason that this is not in line with the rules, but the people in the village don't care about it. Lu Dongfu also missed Sanmei for a long time. Compared with Lu Bei and Zhang, she wanted to know how time passed. How is Carpenter Luo's life?

After the experience of the eldest sister Lu Daya in Peng's house, Lu Dongfu was also a little worried about the third sister, and thought about going to her house to see her in person before she could feel at ease.

Qi Zhongyu responded when he heard the words, and said: "Okay, you can go quickly."

She sat on the stool and picked out a gift, including sweet-scented osmanthus wine, moon cakes that took a whole morning to make, sweets and snacks bought from the county town, and gadgets for Carpenter Luo's two sons.

The bits and pieces add up and pile up a lot.

Lu Dongfu changed her clothes very quickly. She pinned her hair behind her ears and said, "Please excuse me for waiting a long time. I'm ready. Let's go now."

Lu Dongfu still remembered where Carpenter Luo's home was, so the two of them walked directly towards the end of Yuehe Village when they left the house.

The environment at the end of the village is quiet and there is a small bamboo forest. There are seven or eight families living here. The house with whitewashed courtyard walls and the largest area is Luo Carpenter's house.

Lu Dongfu said in her heart: With such a big yard, it seems that Carpenter Luo's family can be regarded as a well-off family in Yuehe Village.

She looked at the surrounding environment. There were bamboo forests on both sides of the road, and there was only one flat road leading to the courtyard gate. The courtyard gate was painted with red paint. It looked like a newly built courtyard, full of festive colors.

They walked to the gate of the courtyard and slammed the gate. Qi Zhongyu keenly heard the sound of running from inside. She waited patiently. After a while, the man opened the gate. It was a strong boy in his teens , with dark skin and deep facial features, looks a bit of alien blood.

This person should be one of Carpenter Luo's sons. He looks very energetic, with bright eyes and curious eyes, not like a bad boy.

Lu Dongfu smiled and said, "Excuse me, is this Luo Zhenhai's house?"

The little boy nodded quickly and asked, "Who are you?"

Lu Dongfu smiled softer, and said, "I am Lu Sanya's second sister. It coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I specially came to visit with gifts."

The little boy wowed, and said enthusiastically: "It turned out to be the second aunt and second uncle. I heard mother talk about you, and father said that he would go to your house to give gifts later. I didn't expect you to come first. Hurry up!" Please come in and sit down."

He opened the courtyard door and invited Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu to come in. Lu Dongfu was a little moved. Just by looking at the children's attitude, one could tell that Carpenter Luo attached great importance to Lu Sanya.

She nodded, and after entering the courtyard door, she found that the courtyard inside was more spacious, and there were two vegetable fields in the front yard. The vegetables growing were lush and green, and they were growing very well, so they should be self-sufficient.

The boy closed the courtyard door, then led the two of them to the main room, and said briskly, "My father is working in the backyard, and my mother is resting in the main room. I will take you to the main room to meet my mother."

Lu Dongfu agreed

With a sound, her gaze had already turned around the front yard. She was worried that the sawdust flying in the yard would make it difficult to breathe, but it turned out that there was no such thing. Except for a few sawdust falling in a few corners, the other The place is very clean.

Come to think of it, just like the boy said, Carpenter Luo put all the tools in the backyard so that it would not affect the daily life in the front yard.

She is a careful person who knows how to live, and she gave extra points to the third brother-in-law in her heart. When she walked into the main room and saw Lu Sanya who was packing the gift boxes, a smile unconsciously formed on the corner of her mouth.

The boy said: "Mom, the second aunt and second uncle are here to see you. I'll go to the backyard and ask Dad to clean up."

Lu Sanya was startled, turned her head and saw Lu Dongfu, her eyes were red with excitement, she responded, "Okay, call your father over."

She stepped forward, first said hello to Qi Zhongyu, second sister-in-law, then grabbed Lu Dongfu's hand, and said, "Second sister, why did you come first, I was thinking of going to your house again in the afternoon."

Lu Dongfu said: "If you have nothing to do, I will come to you first. I want to know how you are doing. Today's trip is not in vain. At least I know that you are doing well. Your stepson... ...the people are very nice.”

Lu Sanya smiled sweetly, as if she herself had been praised, and said, "Kang Qiao is the eldest son of my husband, and he is more considerate in dealing with others. My husband also has a second son named Kang Lin, who is not very fond of him on weekdays." Talk, but they're great at carpentry, and they're good kids and easy to get along with."

Except for the first month when they got married, they were a bit awkward to get along with, but they got along well at other times.

Lu Sanya was very satisfied.

Seeing her like this, Lu Dongfu put her heart into her stomach, and said, "That's good."

Qi Zhongyu stood on the side and watched quietly. Seeing that the two sisters were talking happily, she felt a little relieved. At least Lu Sanya married well. Luo Zhenhai is a responsible man, and he has taken care of the two sons and the young stepmother. The relationship between them, building such a large family business by one person is really powerful, much better than that sick child of the Peng family.

Just as he was thinking, Luo Zhenhai walked in, he was still working just now, so his body was stained with some sawdust, before he had time to clean it up, he first came to see the two relatives of his wife.

He said to Qi Zhongyu who was standing by the door: "Second brother-in-law, I want to tell you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance."

Qi Zhongyu said with a smile: "I also wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival. You don't have to rush over here, it's not too late to go to the house to tidy up before coming back."

Luo Zhenhai was still dropping sawdust, he should be a little fond of cleanliness, so his posture was a little uncomfortable, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Thank you for your consideration, second brother-in-law, please take a seat, I will go back to the room and change my body." Yichang will come over to entertain the second brother-in-law."

Qi Zhongyu nodded, sat on the stool, and listened to the two sisters of the Lu family chatting about their family affairs.

Perhaps with her present, Lu Sanya didn't dare to say too many private things, Qi Zhongyu thought about it, and said, "I'll go to the courtyard."

As soon as she left, Lu Sanya breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing this, Lu Dongfu said, "What's wrong with Sanmei?"

Lu Sanya blushed, and said embarrassingly: "I always feel that the second brother-in-law has an unusual aura, and it's scary to look at."

Lu Dongfu said: "Don't be afraid, he's just not good at words, in fact he is very nice."

Lu Sanya also saw that the second sister had rosy skin and a smile on her face. She had visited the eldest sister before, and the eldest sister was completely different from the second sister. Even when she smiled, there was a bit of bitterness. Lu Sanya felt very distressed when she saw it.

Whether a woman is doing well in her husband's house or not, you can tell more than half of it just by looking at her expression.

She sighed, and told Lu Dongfu about her eldest sister Lu Daya, which reminded Lu Dongfu, so Lu Dongfu briefly talked about her experience of going to Peng's house a few days ago.

He didn't mention that the eldest sister was abused at Peng's house, so as not to worry the youngest third sister, but focused on Qi Zhongyu's ability to help Peng An with medical treatment.

Lu Sanya had also heard about Peng An's illness, and they all said that there was no cure for it, but she didn't expect her second brother-in-law to be so serious.

Her eyes were shining brightly, and even her interest in Qi Zhongyu faded a little.

They continued to chat about homework, and when Luo Zhenhai came over after changing his clothes, he saw the little lady chatting with the second sister with raised eyebrows.

And Qi Zhongyu was not in the house, so it was not easy for him to go in and use it as a wooden stake, and it also affected the two sisters to speak their minds, so he turned and left, not going in to disturb the two sisters chatting.

His eyes turned around in the yard, and when he saw Qi Zhongyu in the shade by the vegetable field, he raised his foot and walked towards him.

Luo Zhenhai had a good impression of Qi Zhongyu, and he had mentioned before that he should let his wife spend more time with his second sister, and visits were also fine, but unfortunately, Lu Sanya was weak and had an illness a few days ago, and it took her a long time to recover from her illness.

And he had to take care of his wife, so he piled up a lot of carpentry work, so after Lu Sanya recovered from his illness, he worked hard in the backyard.

As a result, he didn't have time to visit Qi Zhongyu's house, and he was apologetic in his heart when Qi Zhongyu visited first.

He said: "I'm really sorry, I was not thoughtful and asked my second brother-in-law to come to my house first."

Qi Zhongyu waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about these trifles. I know you are busy with work and I happen to be free. It doesn't take much to go there. If you think it's not right, you can come to my house next time you have time."

Luo Zhenhai laughed loudly when he heard the words, and promised: "Okay."

Luo Zhenhai is a talkative person. When Qi Zhongyu gets along with him, he doesn't need to bother to find topics at all. The other party will throw out countless topics continuously. It just so happens that Qi Zhongyu has rich experience, so he can chat with him.

The two chatted for a long time, during which Luo Zhenhai's eldest son came over to deliver tea and snacks.

When it was getting dark, Qi Zhongyu said: "It's getting late, and I'm planning to go to Lu's house, so it's inconvenient to stay for a long time, let's talk about it another day."

Luo Zhenhai was stunned for a moment, and said: "Coincidentally, I didn't have time to go to Lu's house, why don't we go together?"

Qi Zhongyu thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, but I have to go home and bring a gift. You guys should go out later. We'll meet at the fork in the road outside the Lu family's courtyard."

Luo Zhenhai responded, they are both the son-in-law of the Lu family, and they didn't have a good impression of the Lu family, so they exchanged a look and smiled helplessly.

Qi Zhongyu went to the main room to take Lu Dongfu to say goodbye first. Only then did Lu Dongfu think of going back to her natal family, and she felt a little depressed.

Immediately when she heard Xianggong say that she could meet up with her third younger sister and third younger brother-in-law at the fork in the road, and go to Lu's house together to give presents, she suddenly became happy.

After bidding farewell to Lu Sanya, she walked home with Qi Zhongyu. Seeing her in high spirits, Qi Zhongyu said, "So happy? Why don't you visit Sanmei's house frequently when you have free time?"

Lu Dongfu shook her head and said: "I'm just happy for Sanmei. Sanmei married a good man. Although Sanmei's husband is ten years older than her, he is very loving. I was always worried about Sanmei before because of her She is softer than the elder sister in temperament. Fortunately..."

Her voice dropped, and she had a strong hatred for Mrs. Zhang.

At the beginning, Mrs. Zhang married the third sister only because of the dowry gift. If the third sister married a harsh family, she would have died by now.

When she thought of going to Lu's house to give gifts later, she was full of reluctance.

Qi Zhongyu held her hand and said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. I don't care about the rumors in the village."

Lu Dongfu's heart warmed. The husband always treated her so considerately. She shook her head and said, "No, let's go there. We have an appointment with Sanmei and the others."

Qi Zhongyu frowned, and didn't say much. When he got home, he packed up the presents for the Lu family, and the two walked towards the Lu family.

At the fork in the road, I met Luo Zhenhai and Lu Sanya who had been there for who knows how long. As for Luo Zhenhai's two sons, they didn't come with them, but stayed at home.

Qi Zhongyu and Luo Zhenhai shrugged helplessly, and walked towards the Lu's house at the end of the path together.

At this time, the sky had already dimmed, and Mrs. Zhang and Lu Bei did not expect that the two sons-in-laws would come over at this time, but they were heartbroken to receive the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.

Still very happy.

During these days, Mrs. Zhang had a good life because she got a sum of money from "selling her daughter". However, she hadn't seen her for half a month. He was fat and fat after eating, and he didn't look so mean anymore.

Lu Bei and Lu Chengcai also gained weight, but fortunately, they were not as obvious as Zhang's.

Mrs. Zhang wanted to open the gift box in front of the two sons-in-law. Luo Zhenhai thought of the other party's virtue, and said: "I wish my parents a happy Mid-Autumn Festival. It's getting late today, and it's not safe to walk at night, so I'll visit another day." .”

Qi Zhongyu also agreed, and Mrs. Zhang narrowed her eyes with a smile, and said: "Oh, what's the hurry, you are all young lads, who dares to rob you without long eyes, just sit here with your mother for a while, and I will go to the kitchen to feed you." Get a cup of tea."

The stingy guy didn't even want to invite dinner, Luo Zhenhai rolled his eyes in his heart, and refused: "It's too late, my youngest son is afraid of the dark, I have to go back and take care of them, so I'm leaving."

The level of this lie is not good at all, Mrs. Zhang knows very well that his youngest son is now ten years old, and the half-grown boy will be able to talk about marriage in two years, who is he lying to if he is afraid of the dark?

She felt a little depressed, it was rare that she wanted to entertain her two sons-in-law today, but they were so shameless, she got the gift anyway, so she didn't say anything more, and let them go with a leisurely answer.

Qi Zhongyu and Luo Zhenhai hurriedly dragged the two silent ladies and walked away quickly. I don't know if it was their illusion, but they vaguely heard Zhang's angry roar.

Qi Zhongyu pulled his lips, and said, "Your Lao third brother-in-law speak up."

Luo Zhenhai smiled, "We were lucky today, so mother didn't make things difficult for me. It's getting late, and I have to go home to make dinner. If you don't mind, you can come to my house for a light meal before leaving."

Qi Zhongyu glanced at Lu Dongfu, saw that she was quite moved, and said, "That's fine, then let's bother."

Lu Sanya was very happy, and excitedly stepped forward to hold the second sister's hand, Luo Zhenhai looked at the little lady's happy smiling face, and said, "Second sister, please."

They returned to Luo's house, Lu Sanya and Lu Dongfu pulled several kinds of vegetables in the vegetable field, Luo Zhenhai rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a big rooster and slaughtered it.

The cooking was handed over to Lu Sanya and Lu Dongfu, while Luo Zhenhai took out the sweet-scented osmanthus wine he bought and poured a glass for Qi Zhongyu.

Qi Zhongyu doesn't like drinking, but it's okay to have a drink for fun. She sipped lightly, but Luo Zhenhai was in a good mood, drinking one cup after another, quickly finished one pot, and brought another pot over to continue drinking.

Qi Zhongyu has also seen how big he is, and Luo Zhenhai is a good person, he never used all kinds of annoying words to persuade Qi Zhongyu to drink more like other people Qi Zhongyu knew.

Therefore, Qi Zhongyu took another high look at Luo Zhenhai, and it was rare for him to finish his drink and drink another one.

They drank and chatted. After waiting for more than half an hour, the food was finally ready. Luo Zhenhai's two sons were also sitting at the table. Qi Zhongyu's eyes fell on the youngest son Kang Lin.

After he was full, he pulled Luo Zhenhai's clothes and said shyly, "Father, I'm done eating."

Luo Zhenhai said: "Go back to the house after eating, remember to take a shower before going to bed."

He nodded obediently, saluted Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu before going out, he was quite obedient.

After dinner, the sky was completely dark, Luo Zhenhai still wanted to keep Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu in the guest room of his house.

Qi Zhongyu shook his head and refused. They are all in the same village, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to go home. There is no need to stay at someone else's house, which is a bit too much.

Luo Zhenhai didn't force it, he didn't feel drunk after drinking so much, and he personally sent the two of them outside the courtyard gate, saying: "It's a great blessing in life to be able to talk freely with my second brother-in-law today. I will pay a visit in person, and I will ask my second brother-in-law to prepare wine and food for my brother-in-law."

Qi Zhongyu smiled and said, "You are welcome anytime."

Lu Dongfu also followed

Lu Sanya said goodbye, Lu Sanya's eyes were red, she took her hand and was reluctant to let her second sister go, when she was hugged by the husband, she saw Qi Zhongyu standing by the roadside waiting, so she let go of her hand with her mouth pursed, And let the second sister come often in the future when she is free.

Lu Dongfu nodded in agreement, and walked towards home with Qi Zhongyu.

It was very late, the road was very quiet, and there were no other pedestrians. Lu Dongfu looked at the round moon in the sky, and seemed to mutter to himself: "Tomorrow will be a fine weather."

Qi Zhongyu took her finger and said, "Are you happy today?"

Lu Dongfu raised her lips, nodded, and said, "Happy, I used to stay at the mansion, admiring the moon with the maids in the mansion. At that time, I didn't understand, I just felt tired; today I suddenly understand, I can It’s really a joy to spend the festive season with family members.”

"We live in the village, and we will be reunited with our relatives every year in the future," Qi Zhongyu said in his heart. She has been wandering for so many years, and this year she finally has close people to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

And among these people, there was her wife. She hooked Lu Dongfu's little finger and said, "We will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together in the future."

Hearing this, Lu Dongfu looked up at her, the moonlight shone on her face, the trembling eyelashes and upturned lips were clearly visible.

This scene fell in Qi Zhongyu's eyes, it was astonishingly beautiful, with a bit of unreal mistyness, like a dream.

Lu Dongfu opened her lips and said with a smile: "Not only us, but also our children. When we grow old, there will be grandchildren. It will be a complete big family. By then..."

Qi Zhongyu: ...

Like a basin of cold water being poured over his head, Qi Zhongyu's already icy body temperature lost even the last trace of heat.

She didn't say that she couldn't give birth to a child, but lifted Lu Dongfu's delicate chin, and kissed her gushing lips, and the little girl's cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

Qi Zhongyu remained expressionless, stroked her warm cheek, and whispered in her ear, "I have a secret that I want to tell you."
