Chapter 19 Drunken Mid-Autumn Festival

It was dawn, and Lv Hong sweated heavily, but when he returned home, he saw that Lv Xianger was still asleep. So he went to the yard to pull out a chicken feather and scratched it on Lv Xianger's eye hair. It was not until Lv Xianger wrinkled her little face and opened her eyes that Lv Hong ran to the most-faced room to take a shower.

Lv Erniang, who had just entered the room, saw Lv Hong's appearance and knew that he had woken up Lv Xianger again. After laughing and scolding Lv Hong, Lv Erniang quickly walked into the room and held Lv Xianger in her arms. While patting her, he whispered, "If Xiang'er wants to sleep, just sleep a little longer. Auntie pats Xiang'er."

Lv Xianger, who was already very angry, lost her temper as soon as she heard Lv Erniang's care. Smelling the fragrance of Lv Erniang, Lv Xianger immediately raised her head and smiled and said, "Niang, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. What delicious food have you made? Xiang'er is hungry."

"Okay, I'm going to bring the meal. Let's have something simple in the morning, and I'll make delicious food for you in the evening." Lv Erniang nodded on Lv Xianger's forehead and began to put on her skirt. Then let her wash up, and she went to the kitchen to bring the meal.

When Lv Hong took a shower and changed into a clean robe, the three of the Lu family began to have breakfast. After breakfast, Lv Hong wiped the grapes picked yesterday one by one according to what Lv Xianger said and put them in the jar found by Lv Erniang. Lv Xianger went to the kitchen to help Lv Erniang make cakes, so that she could eat them in the evening.

Looking at Lv Erniang and noodles, Lv Xianger remembered the moon cakes in her previous life. Although moon cakes are getting less and less like their original taste, Lv Xianger will buy a few pieces every August 15th. Make another cup of flower tea, look at the moon and eat moon cakes, thinking about the parents who are already blurred in my memory.

"Xiang'er, what are you thinking about?" Seeing that Lv Xianger was stunned again, Lv Erniang immediately thought that she might not have slept well. She quickly said, "Xiang'er, if you don't sleep well, go into the house to sleep. You don't need your help here."

"No, Niang, Xiang'er doesn't want to sleep. Xiang'er just remembered the kind of beard cake she once ate. Lv Xianger looked at the white noodles bought by Lv Erniang. She really wanted to eat moon cakes, so she put the origin of the moon cakes on Lv Tai. Looking at Lv Erniang's questioning look, Lv Xianger pretended to be trying to recall and slowly said, "Dad bought a strange Hu cake from a barbarian. There was stuffing in the cake, but it was not a dish or meat. It seems to be pine nuts, walnuts, sesame seeds and so on.

"Is that delicious?" Lv Erniang thought about how hard the hard fruits were and how hard they were branded in the pot. But seeing Lv Xianger's yearning look, Lv Er Niang said, "That's good. A Niang also bought those fruits in the county yesterday and is going to stay and eat them in the evening. Since Xiang'er wants to eat that kind of rice, my mother will cook it for Xiang'er.

"Mother, you are so kind." Lv Xianger looked at Lv Erniang out of the kitchen and immediately recalled how to make moon cakes. There was no oven in ancient times, so it could only be branded with a pot, so the moon cakes had to be softer. The stuffing can't be all dried fruits. What should I put in it? Lu Xianger went out of the kitchen and went around the yard.

Suddenly, Lv Xiang remembered that when the owner of the farm moved away, he seemed to have left a small bag of red beans. Boil the red beans and add some sugar, which is the moon cake stuffed with bean paste. Thinking of this, Lv Xianger immediately ran into the mud house, almost stepped on a few bunches of grapes, and took out the small bag.

Lv Erniang also happened to walk out of the main room with some walnuts. Seeing that Lv Xianger was carrying a small bag with great effort, she hurriedly walked over and grabbed it up and said anxedly, "You child, you can't be idle for a moment. What are you going to do?"

"Mother, boil the red beans, mash them and eat them in the cake." Seeing Lv Erniang's doubtful expression again, Lv Xianger hurriedly said, "Mother, this is the Hu cake that my mother asked the Hu man to make, and the Hu man said it."

"Oh." Lu Erniang nodded and took the red beans into the kitchen. Lv Xianger took a secret breath. Fortunately, she has heard a lot about Feng Sanniang recently, and only then did she know that her biological mother is a food lover.

After patting her chest, Lv Xianger walked into the kitchen and told Lv Erniang how to make those red beans. She asked Lv Erniang to put the red beans in the pot and boil them in water before they were taken out. Then, mash the beans and stir-fry them in a large pot. Although there are some bean skins, there is nothing we can do.

Wait for Lv Erniang to make up the noodles with lard, cut them into small pieces, and then make a small piece of dough into cakes. Lv Xianger grabbed a ball of bean stuffing with her little hand, added some crushed walnut powder, and put it in the dough. Lv Erniang then rolled the dough into a ball, pressed it into a cake, and finally baked it in the pot. After a while, a fragrance filled the kitchen. Lv Erniang cooled the first cooked cake, broke it from the middle, gave it half to Lv Xianger, and ate half to taste it.

"I didn't expect this walnut cake to be so delicious." Lv Erniang nodded, thinking that she would eat it like this when she had time in the future. Looking back at Lv Xianger's satisfied face, Lv Erniang smiled and said, "Xiang'er, it's really like your father and mother."

As he was talking, Lv Hong was also led to the kitchen by the fragrance. He saw that Lv Erniang and Lv Xianger were both holding the thick walnut cake, and he also picked it up and took a big bite. This bite made Lv Hong eat three in a row. If Lv Erniang hadn't stopped him, he wouldn't have known how many more he could eat.

Lv Erniang gave Lv Hong a white look, took a plate and put six pieces of Hu cakes. She handed it to Lv Hong and said, "Wipe the oil on your mouth, and then send this cake to your master for compensation."

"I know, mother." Under Lv Xianger's sneaky smile, Lv Hong quickly wiped the oil on his mouth before he took the plate. Before leaving, he also made a grimace about Lv Xianger, which made her happy and strode away.

Lv Erniang baked all the cakes, and Lv Hong also came back, with some food made by Aunt Zhao in his hand. It happened to be noon, and Lv Erniang warmed up the leftover steamed buns in the morning and had lunch with the dishes brought by Aunt Zhao. After lunch, Lv Erniang continued to be busy in the kitchen, but Lv Hong helped Lv Xianger make wine. The three people of the Lu family were not idle until the sun went down.

The three of them rested for a while. When the round moon climbed up the treetops, they began to be busy again. Lv Hong moved the table and three thick mats in the room to the yard and put them on the table. Lv Erniang brought the dishes to the table. And Lv Xianger took a small jar and went to the mud house to serve wine.

When Lv Xianger took out the small jar and put it on the table, the table was full of eight cold and half hot dishes, plus a plate of Hu cakes and a plate of osmanthus cakes bought in the county. Although there are many dishes, the plate is very small, and there is not much left to eat enough for three people.

Looking at the delicious food on a table, the three people of the Lu family gathered together with a smile. Lv Erniang was in the middle, and Lv Xianger and Lv Hong sat on both sides. The first thing Lv Hong did when he sat down was to carry a wine jar and pour wine into the three bowls. Then Lv Xianger was the first to raise the bowl, first to respect Lv Erniang, and then to Lv Hong.

Because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lv Erniang did not prevent Lv Xianger and Lv Hong from drinking. In fact, during these days, Lv Xianger first made a toy and earned a hundred taels, and then made wine. Lv Erniang is less and less regarded as a five-year-old child. She only thinks that although Lv Xianger is young, she grows up quickly because of what she has experienced. For Lv Xianger's change, Lv Erniang was half gratified and sad, and it was up to her nature.

After all, there are too many things hidden in a person's heart, but it is easy to get sick if they don't attack. This is what Lv Erniang and Li have deeply understood. She also wanted to take advantage of today's festival to get Lv Xianger drunk and release her distress.

Lv Hong really liked this wine, and Lv Erniang didn't care about him, but he had a good time. So much so that Lv Xianger didn't do anything about it. Lv Hong was drunk in the yard again. Lv Erniang had no choice but to put Lv Hong into the house first.

Lv Xianger looked at the round moon and remembered her parents in her previous life and her parents who were no longer alive in this life. For Lv Xianger, both parents are biological parents, but they are not around. However, Lv Xianger believes that both parents will look at her and bless her in a certain place.

In a daze, Lv Xianger seemed to see two couples in modern and ancient clothes, smiling at her. Lv Xianger also laughed. The tears from the corners of her eyes fell from her cheeks and said softly, "I'm not alone. I also have A Niang and my brother. I will definitely live a happy life. You can rest assured..."
