After returning to school, Mu Zhen thought about the predicament of his family, and felt very uncomfortable, for so many years, poverty is not a new word for their family, but when is this kind of life the end?

Mu Zhen remembered from time to time that his mother had said that "everything is inferior, only reading is high", for himself, to change all this, only to study hard, he knows that his father often mentioned to himself the iron rice bowl, but also through reading to obtain, this year, he witnessed the village Uncle Tiancheng by raising pigs to become relatively rich, how he wants to be like Uncle Tiancheng, can rely on his own efforts, and change the family, change himself? Sometimes he is confused between reading and wealth.

With the beginning of the intense school life, Mu Zhen became more and more indifferent to the unhappiness caused by the dilemma at home, especially Hu Guoqing's mother's care for him, which made Mu Zhen's life more comfortable, especially the supper every night, which made him feel as if his relatives were by his side.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the school suspended the light class, and the students who were close to them went home to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with their families, and the students who were farther away, as usual, sat in the classroom to review their homework and wait for the bell of the cafeteria to start eating. Mu Zhen was also like the classmates who stayed, quietly writing his homework there, and suddenly Mu Zhen felt someone knocking on his left shoulder, he turned his head sharply and asked softly, "You still don't go home?"

Hu Guoqing, who was standing behind Mu Zhen, smiled slightly, and also responded softly: "Isn't this waiting for you?"

"Wait for me?" asked Mu Zhen suspiciously, pointing to the tip of her nose.

"Just waiting for you to come home with me!" Hu Guoqing said affirmatively.

"It's too early to go home with you, I'll learn how to practice first, and then I'll go to your house after dinner." Mu Zhen said, pointing to the book in front of him.

"Let's go outside the classroom and talk!" After speaking, he took Mu Zhen's hand and walked out of the classroom together.

Mu Zhen felt a little inexplicable, and the two of them arrived outside the classroom and asked softly, "What do you want to say?"

"I went home at noon and talked to my mother about the lantern class, she said that no matter what, I will bring you to the house to eat together and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together!" Hu Guoqing said very sincerely.

"This, this is a bit inappropriate, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for your family to reunite, let me participate, it's not appropriate!" Mu Zhen said and waved his hand repeatedly.

"There is nothing inappropriate, although you have not lived in my house for a long time, but my mother no longer treats you as an outsider, she often tells me that I treat you as my own brother!"

"Is that really what you said?" Mu Zhen listened and was very curious, was she so important to their family?

"That's still fake, my mother said, I can go back to school again, thanks to your great credit, and the learning progress during the period is very fast, and it is inseparable from you, if there is no you, I will not directly enter the third grade of junior high school, most likely to repeat the grade!" Hu Guoqing said very seriously.

"I'm embarrassed to let you say it, where do I have such a great ability, I just played a role in throwing bricks and attracting jade, and it is you who really play a role, I live in your house, and I will bring you a lot of trouble!" Although Mu Zhen felt that Hu Guoqing's words did have some truth, she was still humble and expressed her inner gratitude.

"Don't say it, anyway, if I can't take you home for dinner today, my mother will blame me for being insincere!" Hu Guoqing seemed to be a little begging.

"Okay, okay, can't I listen to you?" Mu Zhen looked at Hu Guoqing's demeanor, if he didn't eat today's meal, he would offend his mother, wouldn't that be self-defeating and make him a little arrogant?

"Okay, let's go now, if there is any homework that can't be written, take it home and write!" Hu Guoqing said a little eagerly.

"Okay!" Mu Zhen turned around and returned to the classroom, simply packed up the things on the desk, took an English textbook, and followed Hu Guoqing home.

The two of them were talking while walking, and as soon as they entered the house, they came to their noses with the long-lost aroma of fried meat, which directly stimulated Mu Zhen's very sensitive taste buds, and felt that the saliva secretion in his mouth increased a lot.

"Mother, what you asked me to do, I invited someone, what kind of delicious food did you make?" Hu Guoqing shouted to his mother, who was busy in the kitchen.

"Okay, okay, you wait for a while, it'll be done soon!" Hu Guoqing's mother responded.

"Brother, you come to help our mother make the pot, I'm going to play with Brother Mu Zhen for a while!" shouted the little girl who was sitting in the pot and went to the bottom of the pot to add firewood.

When Hu Guoqing heard Xiaoya shouting to himself, he immediately walked over, took the burning stick in Xiaoya's hand, sat in front of the pot and then added firewood to the bottom of the pot.

The little girl who walked out of the kitchen came to Mu Zhen: "Brother, do you know the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Mu Zhen was a little stunned by Xiaoya's question, this Mid-Autumn Festival has passed so much, I really don't know how it came? I didn't expect to be stumped by this six-year-old child.

Mu Zhen didn't want to be so embarrassed, and said with a little thought: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional Chinese festival, every year to this day, it is the largest and fullest day of the moon, and because of this, it is also a day for family reunions, many literati in history have left a large number of poems to commemorate this day, so there is the custom of the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

"You're not right, my mother said just now, the Mid-Autumn Festival is the day when Chang'e runs to the moon, and everyone eats moon cakes in order to pray for blessings!" Xiaoya corrected with an innocent smile.

Mu Zhen was stunned for a moment, her heart beat a little faster, her face was a little hot, and she hurriedly added: "These are two different things, one is from the heavenly immortal realm, and the other is from the earthly mortal realm, both of them are right!"

Listening to Mu Zhen's explanation, Xiaoya immediately became a little confused, and couldn't understand what the fairy world and the mortal world were for a while, so she asked with her crooked pigtails: "Is it better to be in the fairy world or the mortal world?"

Mu Zhen felt that the little girl's question was very interesting, so she responded: "The fairy world is said to fairies like Chang'e, that Moon Palace is also known as Guanghan Palace, there are only Chang'e and Jade Rabbit in the palace, and there is no one else, but the mortal world has us ordinary beings, just like us ordinary people, collectively referred to as ordinary people, we can chat with each other without talking, and there are many interesting and interesting things, do you say that the fairy world is better, or the mortal world is better?"

Xiaoya thought for a while: "I like the mortal world, Chang'e in the fairy world is so lonely, no one speaks, even if there is a jade rabbit with her, she won't talk to him!"

Mu Zhen laughed, and the little girl looked at Mu Zhen, thinking that she had said the wrong thing, and then asked, "Am I not right?"

"Yes, you are right, life in the mortal world is rich and colorful, we are all ordinary people, living in the mortal world, in order to enjoy the fun of this life, and we will celebrate the festival together, and Chang'e will feel even more lonely and desolate when she sees the happiness of our mortal world!" Mu Zhen said this, thinking of her father's extraordinary actions in the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, her heart sank suddenly, and she stopped.

"I understand what you said!" Xiaoya took Mu Zhen's hand and responded happily.

Mu Zhen looked at Xiaoya's happiness and jumped up with him.

"The meal is ready, let's start the meal!" Hu Guoqing, who was helping to cook in the kitchen, shouted to Mu Zhen and Xiaoya.

"Let's wash our hands and get ready to eat!Let's enjoy the fun of this mortal world together!" said the little girl as she took Mu Zhen's hand and went to the washbasin to wash her hands.

Xiaoya's words amused Mu Zhen, but she didn't expect this Xiaoya to learn really fast, so she used what she just said.

As the meal was served, the four of them immediately immersed themselves in the festive atmosphere......
