Chapter 128: The Double Moon Festival
On the Longhua calendar, today is the fullest day of the moon.
In the tradition of Longhua, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of joy.
There should be very few Longhua people who don't want to go home.
Although the Tibetan people are only the Mid-Autumn Festival, as a Longhua Xu Qingge, the Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important festivals.
Fortunately, the current Xu Qingge is in the Zangluo settlement, which is the only place in the Zangluo Mountains where there is a signal.
After being full of wine and food, Xu Qingge didn't care whether Xiao Ruoruo had training or not, and turned on the extensive communication function, chose "Mother Jiang Chunhua", and made a language call.
"Drop, beep."
With the call being dialed, Xu Qingge breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that there were not many people in the store, and his mother was still free to answer the phone.
"Hey, Mom, you're busy."
The phone was connected, and there was a rustling sound on the other end.
The sound of hair falling on the cloth is mixed with the sound of a razor cutting hair, the sound of an electric hair clipper, the sound of a hair dryer......
The regular sounds of all sorts of barbershops emerge from the tiny holes of mobile phones.
Finally, Jiang Chunhua's voice was squeezed out of the gap between the chaotic voices:
"It's fine."
It was just two short words, but it also made Xu Qingge cry.
This is the first time she has not been reunited with her family during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The barbershop doesn't need to open early, and no one will run to get their hair cut early in the morning.
So when they were children, Xu Yi and Jiang Chunhua would always leave one person to call Xu Qingge to get up.
I can't remember the memory too early, but the sixth year of elementary school was Xu Qingge's happiest time.
In order to cultivate her daughter's sense of time, starting from the second day of junior high school, Xu Yi and Jiang Chunhua were never at home every time Xu Qingge got up from bed in the morning.
But the quilt that I kicked off at night would be stuffed well every morning when I woke up.
The barbershop was very busy in the afternoon, and it became a luxury for Jiang Chunhua and his wife to take time to pick up their daughter.
When I was in kindergarten, Xu Qingge's grandparents and grandparents could also make a special trip to pick up Xu Qingge after work.
But the old man is always hard, and Jiang Chunhua is not very relieved.
So she and Xu Yiyi together sent Xu Qingge to Tianqi City, not only for excellent educational resources, but also because there is a lot of surveillance in big cities.
Xu Qingge was also well-behaved when he was a child, and he was able to go to school and leave school alone very early.
In the mixed city of Apocalypse, with the opening of a small barber shop, the family finally settled.
But the ensuing mortgages, the faΓ§ade rent in the big city, and Xu Qingge's tuition fees were all saved by the husband and wife little by little.
But although Xu Qingge can go home by herself, and she can rely on the microwave oven for meals, it is absolutely impossible for her to wait until Jiang Chunhua and Xu Yi get off work before going to sleep.
As a result, the Mid-Autumn Festival has become one of the few warm times for Xu Qingge to get together with his parents.
Only on this day, when everyone is at home to admire the moon, can Qingsi close the shop as soon as it gets dark.
"Hello? Qingge? β
The small voice on the phone brought back Xu Qingge's thoughts, and she hurriedly replied:
"Mom, does our family still have a normal three-day rest on National Day?"
No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5 were sorted out by Jiang Chunhua, and they are the most suitable days to go back to their hometown recently.
The young people on No. 1 and No. 2 are in a hurry to go on dates, the outsiders come to Apocalypse City to see the world, and No. 6 and No. 7 are the deadlines for the travelers who end the seven-day tour of the Apocalypse to dress up.
The voice that I haven't seen for a long time, although it is separated by the telephone line, sounds exceptionally gentle:
"Can you come back in time? Don't be in a hurry, it's not too late for us to wait for you to come back and ask for leave.
Anyway, the store is self-opened, and you can take a holiday whenever you want. β
Jiang Chunhua tried her best to make her voice sound relaxed, and in a way, what she said was indeed right.
A smile appeared on Xu Qingge's face:
"Mom, I sent you the photo of Xiao Ruoruo, first go to say hello to grandpa in advance, and say that we will go over to help him water the flowers."
A flying fish is no different from a monster in the eyes of an elderly person who is not familiar with pet beasts.
Hearing this, Jiang Chunhua held back a smile:
"Still watering the flowers? Seven years ago, you carried a water hose and flooded the gold mountain, and then your grandfather never allowed you to go near his faucet again, have you forgotten about this? β
Hearing Jiang Chunhua mention the old past, Xu Qingge involuntarily chopped his feet. That's just grandpa's momentary angry words.
"Mom! I'm not a child anymore, your daughter is the highest-level high school student in the entire Longhua country! β
Jiang Chunhua dusted off the hair on her hands and changed the posture of holding her mobile phone:
"That's also your grandfather's granddaughter, you can tell him yourself when the time comes, and now, he won't even listen to your grandmother. It's just the things you gave him.
Okay, okay, just hang up if it's okay, you're very busy now, right? β
After that, Jiang Chunhua cut off the phone.
She flipped through her daughter's message and forwarded the photo of Little Blunt Fish (Little Ruoruo) to a broad group called Blind Date and Love Family (7).
Even if they haven't seen each other for a long time, the two don't talk a lot, because everyone is busy, but the day of getting together is not far off.
"If ......"
It was the first time for Xiao Ruoruo to see such a lonely Xu Qingge, it stretched out its fins and hugged Xu Qingge's arm, and the two blisters were still intact in the air.
"Xiao Ruoruo, accompany me to watch a TV series, isn't your training time a little too long today."
Xu Qingge felt that Xiao Ruoruo had been too self-disciplined since he had evolved, just like learning, if he kept straightening his nerves, he shouldn't be able to learn things.
Hearing the TV series, Xiao Ruoruo was also a little impatient.
"Ruoruo!"
It's not as smart as the boss to understand how the phone is used at all.
It is too much to look forward to the plot after General Eagle exterminated the mountain bandits, but now, he can only accompany Xu Qingge to watch the content in front.
In order not to let herself be discovered by Xu Qingge because she was bored to the point of falling asleep, Xiao Ruoruo could only secretly condense two blisters behind Xu Qingge's back, slowly rotating like Tai Chi.
As time passed, it finally got dark.
Xu Qingge looked at the people in the settlement, closed the doors one by one, and closed the dark curtains.
Only Grandma Yuzhen and Grandpa Solang accompanied the three of them and talked about the origin of the Double Moon Festival:
"The owner of the third peak of the Tibetan Mountains is a golden-winged eagle, and it will choose to shine on the day when the moon is at its fullest, competing with the moon, and it is like two moons appearing in the sky."
Gongsun Yu interjected:
"Golden-winged eagle? But in the pre-moon festival, at most, only the golden feather eagle came. β
Xu Qingge thought about it and suddenly dredged everything:
"Grandma, do you mean that because insects have phototaxis, when they are led to the third peak, the pet beasts of the other peaks will starve to death, so in order to protect the pet beasts of the other peaks, the ancient Tibetan Luo people specially came up with the pre-moon sacrifice?"
Unexpectedly, after listening to Xu Qingge's words, the two old men laughed.
"Little girl, our ancestors are not as kind as you think.
In fact, our ancestors were inspired by wildfires, but not because they were afraid that the spirit animals would starve to death, but because hungry spirit animals would attack our vegetable gardens and even people.
But if we feed those spirit beasts in advance, they won't be so irritable, and we can live here safely. β
"I see."
The three of them nodded, which was really beyond their expectations.
The three of them put on sunglasses and walked out of the room, the light of the golden-winged eagle illuminated the Zangluo Mountains like day, this wonderful two-moon scene, it would be a pity to miss it.
Wow, I originally wrote a section of the overlord eating flowers against the golden-winged eagle * the golden-feathered eagle group, but after thinking about it, it's not necessary, it's not the battle of the protagonist group, and I've seen the mountain god, and the golden-winged eagle is really a small scene, so I deleted it and rewrote this.
I'm really sorry that the Mid-Autumn Festival is so late.
Since the beginning of work, there has been less time to get together with my family, in fact, this festival and that festival for me is a holiday, eat something, and every day with my family, in fact, it is a special day, I hope that book friends can have a happy holiday.
