Chapter 195 Admire the full moon and draw the moon
Hearing these words, Ai Zheming was a little sad. The Mid-Autumn Festival is full moon, but he has never enjoyed the feeling of being with his parents.
--------------------------
This day is the most important traditional festival in China---- Mid-Autumn Festival. In the countryside, there is a set of traditional folk customs that have been passed down from generation to generation.
That morning, Tang Leping did not go out for a run as usual, but helped his wife mix noodles together, prepared steamed dumplings and steamed buns, and carefully made six dishes.
During this period, Ling Qingfeng also wanted to help, but he really couldn't make noodles. He saw that Tang Jingjing was about to light the fire, so he ran over.
"What a big pot." Ling Qingfeng said.
"I don't usually use it, it's too choked, you go out first." Tang Jingjing added a handful of firewood to the stove and said with a smile.
"I'm with you." Ling Qingfeng insisted.
"Put this hat on." Seeing this, Tang Jingjing handed Ling Qingfeng a hat.
"Oh." Ling Qingfeng obediently put on his hat.
"Do you want to try this?" Tang Jingjing asked, pointing to a wooden, square, and handsome box.
"What is this?" Ling Qingfeng asked suspiciously.
"Bellows, for fire." Tang Jingjing said with a smile.
"Okay." Ling Qingfeng was the first time to try the bellows used to make fires in the countryside, and when he pulled and pumped, the flames would be bigger. But there will also be a lot of smoke and dust, which will make him cough.
"You both go out, or I'll come." Tang Jingjing's grandmother usually cooks and eats by herself, which is convenient and free in time. But during the holidays, she would run to help. Because everyone in the family will eat at Tang Jingjing's house.
"Grandma, take a break, we can do it." Ling Qingfeng said while coughing.
In the end, the two couldn't screw Tang Jingjing's grandmother and came outside the kitchen.
"The air is so fresh." Ling Qingfeng took a deep breath of fresh air and said with a smile.
Tang Jingjing looked at Ling Qingfeng and laughed.
"Laughing at what?" Ling Qingfeng was inexplicably rectified.
"My face is dirty." Tang Jingjing took out the tissue she was carrying with her and wiped Ling Qingfeng's cheeks seriously and gently.
For a moment, Ling Qingfeng didn't even dare to breathe, just quietly enjoying the taste of happiness.
"Alright." Tang Jingjing put away the tissue, and suddenly found Ling Qingfeng's gentle gaze, so she hurriedly lowered her head.
If it weren't for the inappropriate time and place, Ling Qingfeng really wanted to hold her in his arms.
After a busy day, in the evening, the most solemn moment arrived. The family sat around the courtyard, drinking wine and admiring the moon.
The moon was round and bright that night, and it hung high in the sky.
Patches of clouds surround the full moon like fish scales, the moon is like a pearl spit out by a fish, the wind blows gently, and it doesn't take long for the moon to turn into the eyes of a fish again, which is very beautiful.
Complementing this beautiful evening are these exquisite dishes, cold dishes, stir-fried dishes, stews, desserts, fruits, neatly arranged in eighteen kinds.
Ling Qingfeng had eaten and seen countless good things, but he felt that this meal was the best.
"It's time to eat." Tang Leping said with a smile.
Tang Jingjing's grandmother sat in the middle, to the left were Tang Leping, Tang Lexi, Tang Jiayan and Ling Qingfeng, and to the right were Hui Jinxue, Xiao Xiujuan and Tang Jingjing.
During the banquet, everyone said holiday greetings and thick smiles on their faces.
"I toast everyone, one wishes grandma good health, two wishes uncle and aunt a smooth life, three wishes uncle and aunt a prosperous business, and then wishes my younger brother success in his studies." Ling Qingfeng said that he couldn't drink enough, so he only toasted this glass of wine, but it set off a small climax.
"Qingfeng is so polite, if you want to say, your uncle and I have to bless you too." Xiao Xiujuan has a pungent personality, has a good way of talking and doing business, and the amount of alcohol is acceptable. Over the years, their family's business has become bigger and bigger, and she has become younger and younger.
"Yes, Qingfeng came this time and brought us so many gifts." Tang Lexi's personality is more introverted and he doesn't like to talk, but he knows everything in his heart, and he doesn't fall short of what he should say and do.
"I hope you and Jingjing love each other and achieve positive results as soon as possible." Xiao Xiujuan, Tang Lexi, and Ling Qingfeng collided with Tang Jingjing's wine glasses, making a crisp sound, as if announcing the completion of a major ceremony.
"Thank you, aunt and uncle." Recognized by Tang Jingjing's relatives, Ling Qingfeng said happily.
Tang Jingjing was a little embarrassed and smiled shyly.
"Okay." Tang Jingjing's grandmother couldn't close her mouth happily. She has experienced a lot of things in her life, she is old-hearted, and she can see many things clearly. She could see that Ling Qingfeng was a trustworthy child, and she also believed that her granddaughter would be very happy in the future.
……
And just like that, the lively meal ended. After cleaning up, Ling Qingfeng and Tang Jingjing sat in the courtyard chatting.
"Have you eaten enough?" Tang Jingjing asked with a smile, her eyes bright and bright. The moonlight sprinkled on her fair face, making her look even more beautiful.
"I'm exhausted." Ling Qingfeng looked sideways at Tang Jingjing, his heart fluttering.
"When I was young, I had to sacrifice the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and I had to put the rabbit master, and after worshipping the rabbit master, it became a toy for the children to compete for. After dinner, it happened to be the middle of the moon, and the family shared the fruits and moon cakes that were enshrined, and then ate a little 'taste', which was so full that there was even a feeling of abundance. Tang Jingjing recalled the scene when she was a child and spoke slowly.
"And now?" Ling Qingfeng listened quietly, feeling the cool breeze.
"It's also full, but it's missing the innocence and carefree it was then." Tang Jingjing pursed her lips and chuckled, pretty and cute.
"Actually, you're very happy." Ling Qingfeng hadn't been here for long, but he was infected by the warm atmosphere in Tang Jingjing's house.
"Thank you for accompanying me back for the holidays, I just don't know how your parents spent the holidays." Tang Jingjing looked at Ling Qingfeng, her eyes full of emotion. It's been a long time since she's seen that happy smile on her parents' faces.
"My mom asked me to come." Ling Qingfeng was almost melted by Tang Jingjing's gentle eyes, and deliberately quipped.
"I mean, you don't want to come." Tang Jingjing withdrew her hand and pretended to be angry.
"Do you really believe it?" Seeing Tang Jingjing pull her hand back, Ling Qingfeng suddenly regretted it.
"Cut~" Tang Jingjing deliberately turned her head to the side.
"Why don't you give your future mother-in-law a call?" Ling Qingfeng pursed his lips and chuckled, feeling that happiness was very close to him.
"Don't do it." Tang Jingjing was a little embarrassed.
"Really?" Ling Qingfeng asked with a smile.
"Then you fight first." Tang Jingjing bit her lip lightly and said with a red face.
"Okay." Ling Qingfeng said with a smile. He really has to work harder and marry Tang Jingjing as soon as possible, otherwise he will have to hold back his problems sooner or later.

After returning from Wei Lin's parents' house, Gu Xueer got on a short bus home. She has always been in a bad mood, but she doesn't want her parents to worry too much, so she tries to make herself laugh in front of her parents, talks a lot, picks up some interesting things to say, and even acts a little crazy.
When she returned home, her parents would naturally ask about emotional matters, and Gu Xue'er said vaguely and vaguely, because she was suddenly a little unsure.
Gu Xue'er has many relatives, and every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the seven aunts and eight aunts will get together, and when the conditions are good in the past few years, everyone will go to the restaurant to eat.
Because there are many people, the juniors are willing to get together and talk and laugh, which is very lively. With so many people gathered together, Gu Xue'er became a lot quieter.
"Cher, what are you doing wrong today?" Gu Xue'er's cousin, Gu Xiaoxiao, held her cheeks and pouted, looking at Gu Xue'er with big curious eyes, as if she had discovered something strange.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xue'er said with a little weakness, she suddenly found that she was wandering just now.
"You're so quiet, it's not like your usual style." Gu Xue'er's cousin Gao Yuliang laughed.
"Little brat, go, go, go." Gu Xue'er glanced at her cousin angrily, and began to pick up the food.
"Tell me, what were you thinking just now, are you in love~" Gu Xiaoxiao asked with a smile with a blink of shrewd big eyes.
"Nothing." Gu Xue'er's face turned red as soon as she brushed it, and she still refused to admit it.
"It's all at this age, and it's not early love, what's there to be embarrassed to say?" Gu Xiaoxiao smiled, trying to ask why.
Gu Xue'er just laughed dryly and didn't speak, but it made people feel that something was wrong.
"Auntie, my cousin has a partner~" Gao Yuliang stood up and shouted at the other table with a loud voice.
"What nonsense?" Gu Xue'er jumped up suddenly, pressed her cousin's neck, and smashed it a few times on her back.
When the people at the other table saw it, they just laughed and didn't take it seriously, thinking that a few children were having fun.
"Sister, I was wrong. With your hot appearance, can you find your in-laws? Gao Yuliang straightened up, touched his back that was a little painful, and joked with a sad expression.
"You really have to change your style." Gu Xue'er's cousin Shen Huazhang said with a smile.
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. was said by her cousin, Gu Xue'er suddenly felt that she and Wei Lin didn't seem to be a good match, no wonder Dongfang Ying Club didn't like her, fortunately she hadn't told her parents yet.
Among these people, only Gu Xue'er's brother Gu Dongze saw the clue. She felt that her sister must have something on her mind, otherwise she would not be the reaction she is now. If he finds a chance, he'll have to ask.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, at Ai Zheming's repeated requests, Alyssa went to Ye Jianning's house for the holiday.
Ai Zheming walked around the company and couldn't find a suitable place to eat, so he went back to the dormitory, planning to make a bowl of noodles to eat when he was hungry. He didn't buy mooncakes because he thought they were expensive and unaffordable.
At this time, Ai Zheming was quietly looking at the moon in the sky in a daze, the moon was very large and red, like an oil cake that had just come out of the pot.
"In a little while, the moon should be round and bright." Ai Zheming muttered to himself.
Taking out the drawing board, Ai Zheming drew a picture. There is a full moon in the painting, and there are four people, two taller and two shorter, just like him, his sister and his parents, but they are only blurry images. Looking at this painting, his tears slipped unconsciously, salty.
Dangdang, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Who could it be? Ai Zheming didn't think twice, quickly wiped away his tears, and ran to open the door.
"Is that you?" Opening the door, Ai Zheming looked at each other suspiciously.
