"Third brother, the baby will be handed over to you." Tidy up the baby's new clothes, "Help me say hello to my grandmother." ”

Wang Linshan can be regarded as a diplomat of the Wang family because he can speak better than Wang Linxi. Approaching August 15, the relatives have to visit each other, there is no food such as mooncakes here, and most of the gifts are meat and fish, Lan Yi prepared rooster and pork this time, decent gifts.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll take Bao'er back before noon, and I won't leave food in Huajia Village." Wang Linshan led the donkey, packed the meat and live chicken, and sat on the donkey's back with the baby in his arms, "Let's go." ”

In August, the Mid-Autumn Festival ripens crops and various fruits, and farmers take the "Mid-Autumn Festival" as a festival in order to celebrate the harvest and express their joy. Of course, there are also certain sacrificial activities.

People here regard the moon as the opposite of the sun, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the day of the moon god sacrifice, although it is the busy agricultural season, but the people in the village are also busy taking a day or a night to do something meaningful. This sacrifice made Lan Yi feel very interesting, on the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the children in the village were the protagonists of this sacrifice. Children between the ages of twelve and thirteen, who can walk, dress up as adults, burn incense and worship the moon in the courtyard. Most boys are willing to be admitted to the imperial examination, enter the official career, and soar, while girls wish to be as beautiful as Chang'e and plump as the white moon.

Lan Yi didn't have adult men's clothes at home, she didn't think about letting her two children soar, and she didn't think about looking like Chang'e, so on this day, she also made sour bamboo shoots and meat slices, chestnut chicken nuggets and cucumbers and other family-favorite meals, and placed them under the locust tree in the courtyard to enjoy the moon and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The jade dew is cold, the silver toad is full of light, the shadows of the trees are swaying, the sound of insects is far away, and the mother and son are full of food and drink and sit under the tree. But she didn't mention it at all, and only told her two children about the myths related to the moon: Wu Gang and Chang'e running to the moon.

“…… Therefore, Chang'e is very lonely on the moon alone, and misses Hou Yi very much, and Hou Yi also puts delicious food on August 15 every year, just like us, and reunites with Chang'e in front of the moon. ”

The baby listened to the mother's whispered story, and carefully studied how to eat the round pomegranate, and Yu'er listened very seriously: "Mother, will Chang'e come down to eat with Hou Yi?" ”

"She can only stay on the moon after taking the elixir, and she can't come down to eat."

"Then what should Chang'e do if she is hungry?" Yu'er frowned, the taste of hunger was very uncomfortable.

Lan Yi wiped the baby's saliva, pointed to the moon to show him, and patiently continued: "Chang'e is a fairy after eating the elixir, and the fairy will not be hungry." You see, the shadow on the moon, it is a big tree, called the osmanthus tree, and there is a person named Wu Gang under the tree, he was punished by the gods for doing something wrong and cut down the tree on the moon, and only when the tree is cut down can he go home. But the tree couldn't be cut down, so he kept cutting and cutting it all the time. He has been chopping like this for thousands of years, and he is still chopping. ”

"Mother, what did Wu Gang do wrong, and the gods want to punish him for cutting down trees?" Yu'er asked curiously.

Lan Yi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that Yu'er had grasped the point of the problem. In fact, this Wu Gang went to cultivate immortals, his wife couldn't bear the loneliness at home, cuckolded him and had a child, Wu Gang beat the father of the bear child to death in three or two strokes. What a deserved thing this is, it's just that Wu Gang didn't expect that it was not an ordinary person who was killed, but also a third-generation official, or a serious "third-generation god" - people's grandfather was Emperor Yan, and Emperor Yan threw him to the moon to cut down a tree that could never be cut down when he was angry, such a bloody thing, how could Yu'er understand.

"Well, he got into a fight with someone and killed them."

"Wu Gang is a bad guy! So is he on the moon, also bullying Chang'e? Yu'er looked at the moon and clenched her little fist very worried.

“……”

"Mother, can't Hou Yi shoot the sun down, why doesn't he shoot the moon down too, so that Wu Gang can't bully Chang'e, and Chang'e can go home for dinner." Yu'er let go of her fist and felt that she had thought of a solution to the problem.

“…… Because the gods in the sky only gave Hou Yi nine magic arrows, he didn't have any magic arrows after shooting the sun. ”

"Oh, but why didn't he ask the gods for it anymore?"

Who can sue her, this kid doesn't play cards for Mao according to the convention, but what Yu'er said really makes sense! “…… Mother doesn't know, why didn't Yu'er ask for it when he saw him in the book in the future, so she sued Sù Niang, okay? ”

"Good. Mother, when the shot comes down, what should Wu Gang do if he fights with someone again? Yu'er's tone was full of worry, "What if the moon falls in our house?" ”

Lan Yi also looked up at the moon, and didn't care if it was right or wrong, and followed Yu'er's words and said: "No, you see that the moon hangs on the top of the courtyard of Uncle Tuesday's house, and if it falls, it will also fall on Uncle Tuesday's house." ”

"Tuesday Bo is fast, he arrested Wu Gang and locked him up, and Hou Yi and Chang'e can also eat together."

“……”

The mother and son chatted happily, and the hero Zhou Weiji, who was lying on the roof and drinking, was choked by the wine, covering his mouth uncomfortably and not daring to make a sound, but his eyes were full of smiles.

"Alright, let's go, let's go to bed." Lan Yi didn't know that she was caught in trouble, so she got up contentedly and took the two children into the house, coaxed them to sleep before going to the yard to clean up her things.

The Mid-Autumn Festival should have been a reunion between people and the moon, how are your parents? At this time, Lan Yi was the only one left in the courtyard, and she finally couldn't help revealing her deepest feelings, and sat under the tree with her knees crossed and looked at the moon.

"Only the thousand autumn moons in front of the court are always there. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. "This is probably the closest she's got to her parents, right? Are the family still uncomfortable for her?

Lan Yi's sad tone spread out with the wind, blowing Zhou Weiji's eyebrows. Zhou Weiji didn't read much, he could only read words, write letters, and read official documents.

He used to think that the most learned was Ge Junshi in the army, Ge Junshi was strategizing and thinking like a god, but the amount of alcohol was not good, and every time he had to get drunk at the celebration banquet, he would be drunk and lively. After Ge Junshi got drunk, he changed his usual strict sù uprightness, shook the wine jar, and shouted something in his mouth, which was the favorite scene of the brothers, and it was even more popular than the singer.

Zhou Weiji had never understood the poems read by the military advisor, so he felt that this little woman was more knowledgeable than the military advisor, and the poems she made were better and he could understand them.

"I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles." Zhou Weiji lay flat on the roof, thinking of his deceased parents and the brothers who died in the border war. Are the parents really reunited in heaven, and are the brothers getting together to drink again?

He raised his wine bag to the moon, like this, it was not bad.

Zhou Weiji sat up and watched the little woman sitting at the table, forming herself into a small group and looking at the moon, she was also missing her relatives, but was she missing her parents, or the dead Wang Linshan?

Lan Yi didn't know that she had also entered a picture of a beauty under the moon, and she felt very uncomfortable at this time, thinking only about how to vent this feeling. She got up and went inside and took out the flask of the house, and it was only after this time that the wine could relieve her homesickness.

The drunk Lan Yi actually saw her college brother Yu Zhihui in her home in her dream, chatting with her family to enjoy the moon and chat. Lan Yi saw a familiar and unfamiliar self, that face, that slender figure was indeed her, but Lan Yi knew that it was not her, it must not be her, because she would not smile so reservedly, and she would not have such a shy demeanor.

That night, Zhou Weiji sat on the roof of the house, drank and lay down all night, until the sky turned white and rode back to the county seat.
