Mid-Autumn Festival Special: Mooncakes are Groups, Moonlight is Circles (1)

The fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar is an important traditional festivalβ€”β€”β€”β€” Mid-Autumn Festival.

Originally, Lu Yu thought that in a world like the King Continent, there might not be such a statement that there would be no traditional festivals, and even if there were, it would inevitably be difficult to be the same as in reality.

However, after arriving on this day, Lu Yu found that the entire Chang'an City had become lively, and there were far more pedestrians on the streets than before. Most of the people who don't have that extra are wanderers who have returned from going out.

Moreover, in the streets and alleys, regardless of men, women and children, all hold activities to welcome the cold and worship the moon: set up a large incense table, put sacrifices, among which moon cakes and watermelons must not be missing, these are all to welcome the full moon at night.

When it comes to festivals, they seem to be a lot more elaborate than modern people.

Of course, the Mid-Autumn Festival is to eat moon cakes, so on this day, the restaurant responsible for making moon cakes is even more lively, and orders of all sizes are like flowing water.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival that everyone will celebrate, even the cold and stern sheriff Di Renjie on weekdays, on his desk, there are a lot of sacrifices and fireworks used to worship the gods.

"Master Di, will you eat the mooncakes made by the Drunken Immortal Building as usual today?"

Li Yuanfang rubbed his little hands excitedly, whenever he recalled the crispy, soft, sweet and delicious moon cakes in Zuixianlou, the saliva at the corner of his mouth remained uncontrollably.

"Don't worry, I already booked it yesterday, remember to call Jin and Wan'er when the time comes, let's eat together." By the way, if you see Lu Yu and Li ...... If the drunkard is going to do it, pull them over too. ”

Touching Yuan Fang's big ears, Di Renjie also showed a rare smile.

"Oh yes! You can eat mooncakes again! ”

Yuan Fang cheered happily, and her big watery eyes smiled like a crescent moon.

"However, if you want to eat mooncakes, you have to work hard today and deal with the case before the evening."

Di Renjie touched his chin, although he also wanted to eat the moon cakes of the Drunken Immortal Building, but before that, the matter of duty could not be forgotten.

And the more lively the Mid-Autumn Festival, the more turbulent the dark tide hiding behind the hustle and bustle.

"Hmmm! Finish your work early and eat mooncakes early! ”

In order to eat moon cakes earlier, Li Yuanfang cheered for himself, it was rare to have such courage and hard work, so that Di Renjie couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

At this moment, Lu Yu and Li Bai were walking on the busy streets, both of them were attracted by the vague flashing lights of thousands of homes and the lively and joyful atmosphere.

"Well, it seems that even if there is wine, it can't match the fragrance of moon cakes~"

Passing by a health center dedicated to the adoption of orphans, Li Bai couldn't help but sigh when he saw that each of the children was holding a piece of moon cake in their hands, eating it, with a happy and satisfied look on their faces.

"Li Bai, do you also like to eat moon cakes?"

Seeing that Li Bai was attracted by the fragrance of moon cakes, Lu Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I didn't like it or dislike, but I was touched by the children's smiles of satisfaction."

"Even if it is a lonely bird, the happiness they want is very simple, but it is wrapped in that small moon cake."

There was a hint of melancholy in his eyes, and Li Bai sighed softly.

In those eyes full of longing, it seems that the hometown that once stood in the mirage, and the figure of the old man.

"Lu Yu, I've known you for so long, and I haven't asked you yet, where is your hometown?"

Suddenly asked, the longing in Li Bai's eyes was quietly hidden by him.

"Well, my hometown is on the Great Wall."

Without hesitation, Lu Yu replied.

"Because at the Great Wall, there are your beloved, right?"

The corners of Li Bai's mouth showed a playful smile, and he guessed a few points at Lu Yu's affectionate appearance.

What's more, what Lu Yu said, he once said to someone......

"Ahem...... By the way, do you have any plans for tonight? ”

Putting this topic aside, Lu Yu asked about Li Bai's plans for today.

Although there will be many activities in Chang'an at night, it is like shopping or something, which is really a bit inappropriate for the two big men.

"Are you going to? I originally thought that Huaiying would invite me to his place to eat mooncakes tonight, but now it seems that he has forgotten about me......"

Shrugging his shoulders, Li Bai smiled helplessly.

"If Di Renjie invites you, I'm afraid you won't eat moon cakes, but prison food."

Lu Yu couldn't help but tease on the side.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter."

With his arms behind his head, Li Bai seemed to be a little careless.

And Lu Yu naturally noticed Li Bai's abnormality.

Li Bai, you are also thinking about someone.

Although it doesn't seem to be troubled on the surface, I can't cut off that feeling in my heart.

"Li Bai, do you want to eat moon cakes?"

"Well, kind of want to ...... No, I think so. ”

Li Bai hesitated for a moment, then scratched his head and smiled bitterly.

"Why don't we make mooncakes together?"

looked at Li Bai's somewhat incredulous eyes, as if asking, "You can also make moon cakes?" Lu Yu smiled.

"But I won't either......"

"Don't worry, I learned a little from a certain chef."

Lu Yu patted his chest confidently: "Let's go buy ingredients, and go to Di Renjie together in the evening to join in the fun." ”

It was getting dark, but today it was not the same as before, and the streets that should have been dark were still brightly lit and bustling.

People lit lamps and prayed to the heavens; The wishes and happiness in the heart are written on the paper boat that symbolizes hope, and flow into the hearts of the gods along with the current.

Laughter and laughter, affection and love, all are indispensable, and the reunited family is just like the full moon blooming with silver brilliance above the sky at this time.

However, at the gate of the Drunken Immortal Building, Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang looked depressed.

Especially Li Yuanfang, he was even more aggrieved, and his small mouth was so pouting that he could almost hold a kettle.

"Boss, are you saying that all the mooncakes in your Drunken Immortal Building have been stolen?"

Di Renjie frowned, he and Yuan Fang had already finished the case, and they happened to come to Zuixian Lou on the way, intending to take the moon cakes in person, but they were told by the shopkeeper that the moon cakes were stolen last night.

"Master Di, I'm really true! We don't know who did it, and there's a bunch of orders here that we can't handle......"

The boss was also helpless and anxious, he originally planned to sell the mooncakes at a good price today, but he was stolen by the thief, and there was nothing left.

You must know that most of the moon cakes prepared by the Drunken Immortal Building are prepared for those powerful people and officials, but now that there is such a trouble, I am afraid that the entire Drunken Immortal Building will be uncomfortable.

"Forget it, so let's do it."

Waving his sleeves, Di Renjie took out a paper and pen: "Tell me, the process of the incident, and ......"

"Alas, I can't eat mooncakes this time......"

Seeing that Di Renjie had entered the state of handling the case again, Li Yuanfang couldn't help but sigh bitterly, almost didn't sit on the ground, and his big ears drooped even more weakly.

"Yo, Yuanfang."

When he was listless, there was a gentle slap on his shoulder.

"Lu Yu, Lord Li Bai?"

Looking back, looking at the smiling eyes of the two, Li Yuanfang was a little confused.

"You two, why are you here?"

Just after recording the news that the shopkeeper said, Di Renjie turned around and looked at Lu Yu and Li Bai.

"Isn't this just passing by the Drunken Immortal Tower? Why, it seems that the mooncakes you ordered don't seem to have been found. ”

Li Bai laughed softly, making Di Renjie a little uncomfortable.

"Hmph, it's just a moon cake, and it won't be good if you don't eat it."

Di Renjie said with a disdainful expression, but when he saw the aggrieved and sad look in Li Yuanfang's eyes, his heart softened again.

"Yuan Fang, let's go to other restaurants to have a look."

"Master Di, the Mid-Autumn Festival is so lively, I'm afraid the mooncakes have already been sold out, right?"

"You want to care?"

Slapping Li Bai's hand away, Di Renjie wanted to leave with Li Yuanfang.

"Hey, Huaiying, how about you take a look at what Lu Yu and I are in our hands."

Seeing that Di Renjie was really about to leave, Li Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly and stepped forward to grab him.

"What, buy these ingredients, is it possible that you want to make moon cakes?"

I saw that the ingredients in Lu Yu and Li Bai's hands were used to make moon cakes.

However, as far as their ability is concerned, Di Renjie is skeptical.

"So, come along, Master Di?"

Lu Yu looked at Di Renjie's disbelieving eyes and smiled.
