This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is more than 30 days different from the solar calendar, and the temperature in the morning is already cold, but in the market, it can be squeezed and sweaty.

Especially on the stalls with many people, there are several layers of hula around, and there is no cool breeze at all, and you can only feel the strong enthusiasm of the people for shopping.

The momentum of shouting to buy a few catties and a few catties can make people completely forget that no one is rich at the moment, and they just feel that that they don't need money.

Especially the food, no matter what it is, is crazy to rob it.

Not only the people in the neighboring villages, but also the workers of the aluminum factory, when they rushed to buy, they didn't care about anything, and their combat effectiveness was very good, even if they were embarrassed after squeezing out of the encirclement, they were just joking with each other, and they still smiled proudly as if they had won a battle.

The things in this market are also very rich, most of the mountain goods, chestnuts, walnuts, jujubes, pomegranates, are piled high, and there are sun-dried mushroom fungus, but there is no grain.

Everyone is not disappointed, the rush is still in full swing, the mutton stalls and the duck eggs are not connected, and in front of the tofu stalls that must be in every market, more than a dozen people are crowded on a low square table, drinking tofu brains or soy milk, eating the burnt bean dregs cake on both sides, which is called a satisfying and comfortable.

The most surprising thing for the children is the sugar gourd and Jiang rice cake, which is more attractive than the moon cake, the red hawthorn is strung together, wrapped in a layer of crystal clear syrup, and one by one is inserted on the wheat straw bunch, the sun shines on it, the bright one can be dazzling, it is beautiful and attractive enough.

Jiang rice cake is steamed into a large square piece, when buying, cut a piece with a knife, wrapped in reed leaves and weighed, a pound and two cents, about the size of an adult's palm, snow-white rice cake, sandwiched with red dates, a bite of soft glutinous sweet, is one of the unforgettable memories of a generation's childhood.

The children's eyes were shining, and they were drooling greedily, begging and even rolling and spilling and crying loudly in order to let the adults buy them for them.

Adults are really entangled in a way, some of them will be soft-hearted and buy a little for them to satisfy their hunger, and some will grit their teeth and ignore it, scolding and scolding and dragging the children away, and the children they provoke are tearful, and they are reluctant to turn their heads and look back while walking.

The little look that looked back......

Song Hongguo couldn't help but want to pay for it, but she couldn't, she didn't dare to be such a good person, she opened her mouth, and everyone would have to treat her soft-hearted, cheap and easy to get in the future.

She bought two sugar gourds for the brothers, weighed a pound of Jiang rice cakes, and went to cut two pounds of tofu and a few bean dregs cakes, but she wanted to eat tofu brains, but she couldn't squeeze into the table, so she had no choice but to give up.

In addition, she also bought a lot of chestnuts and dried mushrooms and fungus, which were grabbed at the stalls of the Xiangyang Brigade, and the person in charge of selling things was the captain Sheng Zhongxin, who had bought a lot of good things in his hands before, and the peonies and fruit trees in the yard were sent by him.

Seeing her at this time, Sheng Zhongxin was very enthusiastic, helped her weigh good things, and asked her why she didn't want anything else, on the stall, walnuts, pears, jujube pomegranates and so on.

Song Hongguo said that he had it at home, and when he saw an acorn that looked a little similar to a chestnut, he asked a few more words, and learned that there were many acorns in the mountains of the Xiangyang Brigade, but because the bitter ones didn't even want to eat the pigs, the price was very low, and only those who were really hungry at home would pick up acorns to satisfy their hunger.

Ten catties is only a dime, and Song Hongguo simply asked for a hundred catties, thanks to this trip, with a small cart, otherwise he wouldn't be able to transport it home if he bought so much.

Seeing this, Sheng Zhongxin suddenly thought in his heart, Song Hongguo In his eyes, he was definitely a literate and intelligent person, and he was also a decent person who could pursue the enjoyment of life without shortage of food to eat, and a smart and decent person buying acorns must be of other use, but no matter how curious he was, there were many people talking about it at the moment, and he couldn't ask directly, so he could only wait for another opportunity.

Squeezing out of the encirclement, Ling Zhi couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what are you buying so many acorns for?" I've heard that this thing is hard to swallow, and it is disliked to feed the animals, and our pigs, chickens and geese may not be willing to eat it. ”

Song Hongguo brushed back her somewhat messy hair and explained, "This thing is definitely not good to eat directly, it has to be processed first, and if it is handled, the taste will not be so astringent." ”

Hearing this, Ling Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? ”

Song Hongguo smiled and quipped, "If you don't believe it, let's go home and try it, and the cooked acorns will be processed and cooked, they will taste very delicious, maybe you will be reluctant to feed the pigs if you like them." ”

Ling Zhi, "......"

Before leaving, Song Hongguo saw that there were finally few people on the mutton stall, so he went over and asked, and the sheep scorpion that no one wanted to buy in the end was rounded, the mutton didn't need a ticket, it was a piece of a catty, and the sheep scorpion was a bone in the eyes of the locals, and it was not cost-effective to eat, so even if it was two cents and a catty, no one wanted it, and with that spare money, it was better to buy more tofu.

Song Hongguo felt that he had taken a big advantage, and he couldn't wait to invite Han Ying and Song Hongbing to the dormitory to eat sheep and scorpion hot pot at noon.

On the way back, she looked at the cornfields on both sides, and thought about boiling corn cobs to eat, and when she entered the door, she went to pick up a few tender ones in her own place, and if she didn't eat them now, she would be old in ten days and a half months.

Seeing this, Ling Zhi couldn't feel distressed, but when the corn cob came out of the pot and he didn't raise his head when he gnawed on it, he was reluctant to give it up, he just felt that it was really fragrant.

After eating, Song Hongguo went to pick some pomegranates, jujubes, pears, pumpkins, winter melons, and then brought sheep scorpions, tofu or something, the basket couldn't fit it, so she had to use a sack, and when she arrived at the hospital, she was sent back to the dormitory first, and then carried the basket to the outpatient clinic to work.

Xu Xianghong nibbled on the pear and boasted, "Your pear is good, it has a lot of water, the taste is sweet, there is no slag, and even the core inside is small......"

Song Hongguo said, "There is one planted outside the yard, this year's growth is okay, I picked some first, if you like it, I will bring you a basket in a few days." ”

Xu Xianghong hurriedly shook his head, "What's so embarrassing?" Don't, you keep it for ...... with the kids."

Song Hongguo said with a smile, "Our mother-in-law can't eat much, and the neighbors, good colleagues and friends will give it away, and they can't send a few catties, so don't be polite." ”

Hearing this, Xu Xianghong did not refuse.

Song Hongguo waited until she was not busy, and she also sent some to Dean Zhang, a few pomegranates and a few pears, but they were not enough to benefit or anything, so she gave it above board, and Dean Zhang also received it frankly, in addition to the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the work, in addition to work, because of Director Zhou, they also had a little affection, and no one could find fault with it.
