Li Guizhi watched her daughter show off her new toys for a while, and said, "Alright, all three of you come and help me. I've prepared a lot of fillings today. If you want to eat more or give some away, you'll have to make them yourselves."

Jiang Xiaoli immediately put down her laptop. "I need to bring some for my roommates. I'm coming!"

Zong Jia and Zhong Yuan also washed their hands and came over to help.

Li Guizhi demonstrated a few steps for them, and the three of them started working on it.

Jiang Xiaoli took out a decent-looking mooncake from the mold. "This is much simpler than making dumplings. I like this job."

Zong Jia and Zhong Yuan quickly got the hang of it, and later the three of them even started competing in speed.

Li Guizhi found it amusing, "Our oven is only so big, even if you cook it very fast, you can't make this many at once."

Jiang Xiaoli waved her hand, "Mom, you go ahead with your work. This is a battle for honor for the three of us, it only happens once a year!"

Li Guizhi shook her head, "You guys keep practicing, and come back next month."

"One more time?" The three of them looked up at the same time.

"Yes, this year has a leap month in August, so there are two Mid-Autumn Festivals," Li Guizhi explained with a smile.

Jiang Xiaoli turned to Zhong Yuan and said, "Brother Dafu will probably be here next month, let's all come together."

Zhong Yuan nodded, his hands moving even faster. "I think we can still crush Daifuku."

Zong Jia glanced at him and said, "I don't think so. Dafu's skills are quite good."

Li Guizhi said with a smile, "Yes, Dafu can be considered my little apprentice."

After wrapping and pressing all the mooncakes into shape, the three of them turned on speakerphone and made a call to Dafu.

Dafu was having a meal with everyone in the factory canteen when he heard them on the phone. He ran back to the office, saying, "Hey, I thought you guys forgot about me!"

They all said in unison on the other end of the phone, "How could that be!"

Zhong Yuan was the first to shout, "Dafu, the three of us just made mooncakes. You should be coming to Kyoto around this time next month, right? We'll show them to you then."

Jiang Xiaoli urged, "Yes, Brother Dafu, how's the handover going? We're all waiting for you in Kyoto."

Dafu was also anxious, but there were too many things to explain and the company's new system had not been fully implemented, so he was worried. "I'll do it as soon as possible. I estimate it will be about right next month."

Zong Jia said, "Hurry up and come, Da Yuan is getting too arrogant."

"Haha." Dafu laughed when he heard this. "With his snail-like driving speed, what's there to be so arrogant about?"

Zhong Yuan immediately turned to the other two and said, "You guys spread the news way too fast."

Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "Hehe, I just talk to Brother Dafu about things at the factory every day, it's just something I say casually."

Dafu laughed loudly on the other end of the phone, "Are you afraid of people talking about your lousy skills? You were bragging to me the other day that you got your driver's license in just over twenty days. I thought you were really something, but it turns out you're just all show and no substance."

Zhong Yuan felt as if his heart had been pierced. "Just you wait! When you come to Kyoto, I will become the God of Speed!"

"You're just bragging!" Dafu didn't believe it. "Brother Zong, Little Pear, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! Please give my regards to Auntie."

Jiang Xiaoli quickly replied, "No problem, we'll be waiting for you to join us!"

After hanging up the phone, Dafu didn't go back to the cafeteria to have dinner with everyone. Instead, he opened his notebook again and began to study the next steps of his work.

Jiang Xiaoli called the Xiao family again, and Xiao Muyu said pitifully on the phone, "Xiaoli, the senior year has just started, and the teachers are acting like they're crazy. There's so much homework for every subject every day."

Jiang Xiaoli touched her nose guiltily. She did know about this. In their year, there were her and Xu Xing, and many people said that Chen and the other teachers were lucky.

This really angered Chen, so he increased the intensity of training for Xiao Muyu and the others right after the start of the semester.

She gently advised, "It's only a year, just bear with it. Your goal is Peking Union Medical College Hospital, good luck, girl!"

After saying many encouraging words, Jiang Xiaoli finally managed to appease the resentful senior high school student.

Xiao Jincheng took the phone, exchanged a few pleasantries, and emphasized, "Little Pear, everything's basically ready on my side, and all the activities are arranged. I won't be cutting the ribbon for the opening of 'Jinghua Commercial Plaza' without you!"

Jiang Xiaoli quickly assured her, "Don't worry, I'll be back on the 30th, and I definitely won't cause any problems!"

When Xu Feng answered the phone, she handed the phone to Li Guizhi.

She sat at the dining table with Zong Jia and Zhong Yuan and sighed, "Being needed by so many people is such a sweet trouble!"

Zhong Yuan grinned, "Little Pear, I'd actually like to have this kind of trouble."

Jiang Xiaoli grinned mischievously, "Brother Yuan, are you thinking about finding a girlfriend?"

A blush rose to Zhong Yuan's face. "I'm already 22, shouldn't I start thinking about this kind of thing?"

Li Guizhi hung up the phone and came over. "Xiao Yuan wants to find a girlfriend? Tell me what kind of girl you like?"

Zhong Yuan thought for a moment and then began to describe, "Auntie, I only graduated from junior high school and don't have much education. I just want to find someone with a higher level of education, and not someone who is a quiet, reserved person."

Li Guizhi nodded, "Okay, I'll introduce you to someone suitable later!"

Zhong Yuan was delighted and quickly poured Li Guizhi a drink. "Auntie, that's great. Please keep an eye out for it for me."

Jiang Xiaoli was a little surprised, "Mom, you've only been in Kyoto for a few days, and you already have this kind of network?"

Li Guizhi said proudly, "Why do you look down on your mother? I know all the people in our neighborhood's homeowners' committee very well!"

Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, "Mom, you're amazing!"

"Of course, alright, let's eat!" Li Guizhi waved her hand in a patriarchal manner.

After dinner, Jiang Xiaoli intended to teach Li Guizhi how to use the computer, but Li Guizhi became obsessed with Minesweeper and couldn't stop, losing repeatedly but trying again and again.

In the end, it became a game of Minesweeper where Zhong Yuan, the two of them, worked together to figure out how to win, while Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jia went out for a stroll.

Zong Jia held his beloved girl's hand and asked, "Little Pear, shall we go see a movie?"

"Sure!"

They chose the currently showing movie, "In the Heat of the Sun".

The movie theater was packed, with many couples coming in hand in hand. The two of them sat in the back row by the aisle.

The movie theater lights were turned off, and the movie began.

Soon, they heard sparse sounds coming from diagonally in front of them. Just as Jiang Xiaoli was about to turn her head to look, Zong Jiayu reached out and turned her head back.

"There's nothing interesting to see, let's watch a movie."

Jiang Xiaoli quickly realized what was happening diagonally in front of her. She leaned close to Zong Jia's ear and whispered with a smile, "Comrade Zong, have you forgotten that I'm already an adult?"
