Chapter 79

Chen Xi came home with moon cakes.

The little guy is still sitting on the sofa and watching the cartoon. From time to time, he will be teased forward and backward by the plot in the cartoon.

Big cat also likes watching cartoons recently.

This guy is a thief, but it is estimated that he has stayed in the mountains for a long time and has not seen much of the world. Therefore, when the little guy watches cartoons, he usually doesn't run around, but lies down and watches with the little guy.

Seeing the happy place, the big cat will rub the little guy with its body.

It's really more and more like a cat

After Chen Xi came back, the gift bag in his hand immediately attracted the little guy's attention.

I didn't even watch cartoons. I jumped off the sofa and ran over.

"Baba, what did you buy?"

As she spoke, she reached for the gift bag.

Seeing this, Chen Xi handed her the gift bag on the left.

This gift bag is not heavy, but it's a little big. It's similar to Nike's medium bag.

She came back to the sofa with her gift bag in both hands. After throwing the gift bag on the sofa with some effort, she climbed onto the sofa and knelt down to open the gift bag.

After opening it, she took out a box from inside.

The box is very beautiful. There are some cartoon characters' heads printed on it. It looks very exquisite.

The little guy was attracted and couldn't wait to open the box.

Twelve moon cakes with various animal patterns are prominently placed inside.

These moon cakes are not big, smaller than ordinary moon cakes, and have different colors. They are all warm colors. It seems that people have a sense of appetite.

After Chen Xi put down the other bag, she also came to the little guy and sat down.

"Oh, the zodiac, do you recognize the animals above?"

"I recognize it! This is a horse, this is a monkey, this is a pig, this is a rabbit! "

The little guy held out his little hand and ordered them on top of each moon cake, and then reported their. Suddenly, she stopped and took the goose yellow moon cake in her hand.

"This is a dragon! I belong to the dragon! It's mine! " The little guy held up the moon cake and giggled.

With that, the little guy was not polite and took a bite on it.

She chewed two mouthfuls. Before swallowing anything, she puffed her small mouth and handed most of the remaining moon cakes to Chen Xi's mouth. Then she muttered, "Baba, eat this well, you can eat it!"

Seeing this, Chen Xi took a bite.

"Well, good, Hami melon taste."

This moon cake is not a traditional moon cake. The shell is a little crisp. If you bite it, it will give off a milk flavor. If you taste it carefully in your mouth, you can taste the sweet Hami melon flavor.

Its sandwich is like glutinous rice, soft but not sticky. It is also mixed with something similar to coconut. It is very delicious.

In fact, if you really want to say, this thing can't be regarded as moon cake at all, but dessert.

In Chen Xi's memory, moon cakes should be egg yolk, bean paste, five kernel and lotus paste. Although they are not as delicious as the one in his mouth, they can eat a taste called tradition.

Maybe it's because the moon cake is so delicious. The little guy ate three pieces in a row and then collapsed on the sofa.

As soon as Chen Xi saw her like this, she knew that there was no need to cook lunch today.

When you are full, you will naturally start to feel sleepy.

The little guy watched the cartoon for a while and took a nap unconsciously.

Chen Xi was afraid to wake her up, so she didn't take her back to her bedroom, but gently covered her with a cold quilt.

But just when Chen Xi covered the little guy with a cold quilt, his mobile phone suddenly rang, which immediately startled Chen Xi. He almost connected the phone quickly with the momentum of thunder covering his ears and less than stealing the bell.

The phone is from Lin Xuan.

After Chen Xi ran to the bedroom, he said to the phone, "hello?"

"It's me, Lin Xuan."

"I know. What can I do for you?"

"Well... Nothing. I just want to ask, do you have any plans for the Mid Autumn Festival?"

Her voice sounded hesitant, but slowly with a rare softness.

Chen Xi thought about it, but pretended to answer casually: "it's nothing. I let her play too much a few days ago, so I'm going to make up lessons for her at home these two days and let her adjust, otherwise I'll have to cry for a long time at school."

There was a silence on the other end of the phone.

Then Lin Xuan's voice became a little lighter.

"Oh, that's all right. I wanted to ask you out for an outing... It seems that I can't. let me ask someone else again. That's it. Happy holidays."

"Happy holidays."

……

After dinner.

The little guy watched the cartoon for a while. When the moon rose, Chen Xi took her to the yard again. Children can't watch too much TV, so it's also a good choice to take her out to enjoy the moon. So father and daughter sat on the swing and enjoyed the moon as they did yesterday. Maybe it's because I'm in a good mood today. While chewing moon cakes, the little guy shouted to Chen Xi to tell her a story. Seeing this, Chen Xi told her the story of Chang'e running to the moon. There are many kinds of stories about Chang'e. But one of the most popular is that Chang'e was forced to swallow medicine, soared into an immortal and was trapped in the Moon Palace. It is said that after Hou Yi shot down the sun, the mother of the Western King gave him a pair of immortality medicine. Hou Yi gave the elixir to Chang'e for safekeeping. One day, Feng Meng, a disciple of Hou Yi, coerced Chang'e to hand over the elixir while Hou Yi was out. Chang'e refused and threatened her life. In a hurry, Chang'e had to swallow the elixir. Immortality medicine is a fairy medicine, so Chang'e immediately became an immortal, floated off the ground and flew towards the sky. Because this medicine was originally given to Hou Yi by the queen mother of the West. Although chang e became an immortal because she took the immortal medicine, she could not be ranked in the immortal class. Therefore, she could only be trapped in the cold moon palace alone, and she would never see Hou Yi again. The little guy is not old, but he seems to understand the pain of lovesickness between men and women. After listening to Chen Xi's story, her whole little face wrinkled and kept muttering that sister Chang'e was so poor... Chen Xi had to gently rub her little head. In fact, there is another version of the legend of Chang'e running to the moon. That is the version of Chang'e throwing her husband and swallowing it alone. Because Chang'e didn't know that this medicine was effective only after Hou Yi took it, she found that she was trapped in the Moon Palace forever. This is also the West Queen Mother's punishment for her selfishness. Of course, this version is a little dark, so Chen Xi doesn't consider telling the little guy at all. Father and daughter dangled on the swing to enjoy the moon. meanwhile. Far away. In the yard. The woman in white walked out of the pavilion and looked up at the full moon in the sky. Her long white dress was shining like white jade against the bright moonlight. Moonlight like water, also cold to the bone. Who knows the pain of Chang'e Ten rounds of frost shadow turn to the court Wu, and this night people are restrained in a corner alone. May not be su'e without regret, the jade toad is cold and the sweet scented osmanthus is lonely************ In Chapter 76, someone asked what the opening poem was for. The song and the capital are called the mid autumn moon. One is Su Shi's and the other is Yan Shu's. These two poems have metaphors. Putting aside the metaphorical part, these two poems can perfectly fit the theme of this book.
