Although he is young, he also needs to know that today is a holiday.
Every year when Fang's father and mother were still alive, their family would celebrate this festival, so he still has some memories of it.
So he didn't suggest going out to play with others, but instead quietly followed Fang Zhiyi and helped her cook.
Feng Zhiyi bought spare ribs, pork tenderloin, and pork belly yesterday, planning to make a braised pork, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and a spare rib soup.
The remaining meat will be used to stir-fry, and the fish will be eaten tonight.
Fang Zhiyi was just worried that the number of dishes he prepared was odd, so he just used this to make up the number.
Anyway, before Fang Zhiyi traveled through time, in their place, whenever there was a meal during the Mid-Autumn Festival or the Spring Festival, there would definitely be fish on the table, which was for good luck.
Fang Zhiyi had forgotten to buy it before, and since he wasn't good at cooking fish, he just forgot to buy it. It wouldn't taste good anyway.
Since we are here now, we don’t care much about the food. But we didn’t expect that the supply and marketing cooperative would give us a fish. Since we have it, we might as well make do with it.
But Fang Zhiyi thought about it later and realized that they all had northern customs, so there must be some similarities.
The reason why people don’t eat fish at this time is not because they don’t know the meaning, but because their families are not rich and sometimes they cannot afford to buy fish.
So we can only make do with it. After all, at this time, people don’t care about those things. The first thing is to have enough food to eat, and the second is to ensure their own safety.
The things that were passed down before were dispensable, and some were not allowed to be mentioned, so people didn't care about them.
Fang Zhiyi cooks quite fast, especially when there are several pots cooking at the same time, and they are using wood-fired pots, so it cooks faster, especially for things like braised pork.
It took her less than two hours to prepare dinner for today.
"Sister, there are so many dishes today. I can definitely eat two big bowls of rice."
Fang Zhilin looked at the hot food in the pot and said while swallowing his saliva.
"Eat as much as you can, it's just the two of us. Eat as much as you want."
"But don't overdo it, or else, if word gets out, your friends tomorrow will laugh at you."
"You know what? I wouldn't. I know how much I can eat."
"Okay, stop watching here. Go inside and clean the table. Get ready. We're having dinner."
After the dishes were served on the table, they prepared to eat.
Fang Zhiyi bought some soda from the supply and marketing cooperative today and placed a bottle in front of each person.
The two of them talked while eating. Most of the time, Fang Zhilin was chattering non-stop while Fang Zhiyi listened with a smile on his face.
Fang Zhiyi stared blankly at the scene in front of him, a smile appearing on his face.
She silently thought of commemorating herself in her heart. She finally had a family now, unlike before when she spent the Mid-Autumn Festival alone and lonely.
It is no longer the time when we can only watch other people’s happiness and family reunions through WeChat Moments.
She finally had someone to celebrate the holidays with, and in her heart, she silently hoped that by the new year, she would no longer be alone.
She thought that by next year's Mid-Autumn Festival, if nothing unexpected happens, there would be more people to accompany her to celebrate the festival.
She was very grateful for this opportunity, even though she was transported into a book and was still a cannon fodder.
But she also gained two, her family who loved her very much, and now she was going to gain another one. She loved her boyfriend very much, and she felt very good about it.
Anyway, she has no worries now. Her relatives are gone, and she is alone, living in that world.
She finally had a son to accompany her, and she was no longer the one who looked at other families with envy during festivals.
So she was very glad that she had this opportunity. After all, she was alone in that world, free from all worries, and no one cared about her.
Although this world is a little backward, there are people who care about her and who can accompany her, so she is very grateful for such an opportunity.
Just like the scene today, it was what she wanted but dared not imagine before. Who could have thought that it would come true today, just a few months later.
"Sister, are you listening to me? Why are you looking at me?"
After hearing this, Fang Zhiyi finally came back to his senses from his memories. Looking at Fang Zhilin who was puzzled, he smiled and said:
"Are you happy, sister? Of course I am listening to you."
"Alright, alright, eat quickly. There are still mooncakes to eat after you finish."
When Fang Zhilin heard him say this, he lowered his head and continued eating, but after a while he wanted to talk to him again.
He was always chattering, which might be a bit noisy to others, but Fang Zhiyi thought it was great. After all, she had only had her own Mid-Autumn Festival for so many years.
Now that I have someone by my side, it's nice to have some fun together. At least it's better than being alone before.
After all, at that time, the only sounds around her were the sounds of the Mid-Autumn Festival party coming from the TV and the sound of chopsticks hitting the bowls on the dinner table. There was nothing else.
If it were before, there might still be the sound of fireworks and firecrackers, but the air pollution is getting more and more serious, and the country no longer allows them, so the Mid-Autumn Festival is very quiet every year.
Now that there is someone making noise next to her, she certainly doesn't feel annoyed. Instead, she feels very happy that someone can finally accompany her.
Two people eating together? They clinked glasses from time to time during the meal. Because it was a festival, they ate a little slowly. After the meal, they cleared the table and started to share the mooncakes.
Thinking that he had eaten a lot in the evening, Fang Zhiyi did not give him the whole mooncake, but cut it into two pieces.
Each person just needs to eat one piece. Fang Zhiyi didn't know if this tradition existed at that time, but in their family, they always had mooncakes for dinner on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
So after coming here, she continued the next period. After eating the mooncakes, Fang Zhiyi took him for a walk outside again. She couldn't let him really eat too much.
After walking for a while, it was getting late, so Fang Zhiyi helped him wash up and then let him go to bed. That was how the Mid-Autumn Festival ended simply, no different from usual, except that the food was maybe a little better.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Zhiyi went to get off work and back home as usual every day. Occasionally, he would send a batch of apples to others to fill his own coffers.
