Xiaoguo was sweeping the floor in the kitchen when she heard the door ring. She looked out the window and saw a strong and cheerful little figure. This child came back quite quickly.

"mother!"

Before I even entered the house, I heard Zhuangzhuang calling Xiaoguo.

When he stood in front of Xiaoguo, Zhuangzhuang said flatteringly, "I also told you that popcorn cannot get wet. Keep it well!"

"Oh my, how come our Zhuangzhuang is so smart? Mommy forgot to remind you, but you still remember it!"

Xiaoguo just remembered that he forgot to tell Zhuangzhuang, but he didn’t expect that Zhuangzhuang remembered it. His little brain is really better than his own!

Zhuangzhuang smiled embarrassedly, said shyly to Xiaoguo that he was going to read a book, and went back to the room.

Xiaoguo continued to clean the kitchen. She hadn't cleaned the kitchen for several days. Xiaoguo took the rag and wiped and swept wherever necessary.

After putting down the broom, the kitchen became clean and bright again. As expected, a clean kitchen makes people more eager to cook.

Xiaoguo, enjoying her leisure time, turned around and went back to the house to watch Zhuangzhuang study.

Recently, Xiaoguo has been watching Zhuangzhuang study every day, or studying sewing methods with Mrs. Yang with fabrics, chatting while sewing clothes. Her life is quite wonderful.

One afternoon, when Xiaoguo was tutoring Zhuangzhuang in his studies, Mrs. Yang knocked on the door and called Xiaoguo. Xiaoguo curiously put down the book and let Zhuangzhuang study by himself, while she came to the door and opened it.

"Sister-in-law? Come in."

Mrs. Yang stood outside the door with a happy face. When she saw Xiaoguo, she waved her hand to indicate that she would not go in. Then she said, "Are you going to the county tomorrow?"

Xiaoguo had gone to the county with her many times, but seeing that she was particularly happy today, she was a little curious, "Okay, what day is tomorrow?"

"It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival," said Mrs. Yang, smiling. "I just heard from the Li family's wife that they went there together today. Now there are all kinds of food for sale in the county market. Let's go and have a look tomorrow to see what's new!"

Mid-Autumn Festival... Xiaoguo forgot that it’s almost Mid-Autumn Festival. I can go and have a look tomorrow. We are out of meat at home. I can also take a look at other things and buy some supplies for the family.

After agreeing on a time, Xiaoguo went back to the room and talked to Zhuangzhuang, asking him if he wanted to go with them. Zhuangzhuang was very happy when he heard that, and quickly agreed, saying yes.

The next morning, after breakfast, Xiaoguo harnessed the donkey cart and asked Zhuangzhuang, who had been packed, to go and call Mrs. Yang. After Zhuangzhuang ran out, Xiaoguo hurried out with the donkey cart, chased back the puppy that followed out, and turned around to lock the door.

When they arrived at Sister Yang's door, Zhuangzhuang was taking Sister Yang out. Xiaoguo saw that Sister Yang was the only one there, so he said, "Sister-in-law, we're going to have fun today anyway, so call Xiaohua and Xiaohu to go with you!"

Mrs. Yang paused and thought, yes, so she said something to Xiaoguo and ran home while calling her two children, asking them to change their clothes quickly and go to the market together.

After a while, three people appeared on the donkey cart. Xiao Guo called them to sit down and got ready to set off.

The three children seemed very excited and were chattering together. Mrs. Yang sat beside them to protect them, while Xiaoguo sat in the front driving the donkey cart.

Arriving at the market, Xiaoguo followed Mrs. Yang's advice and came to another street. Xiaoguo looked at the unfamiliar street, feeling a little confused, as she had never been to this place before.

"Sister-in-law, what are you selling here?"

Xiaoguo looked at the street which seemed ordinary and felt a little strange. Why did Mrs. Yang ask him to come here?

"Walk forward a little and turn around that alley. Don't you smell something?"

Mrs. Yang looked at Xiaoguo mysteriously.

After hearing this, Xiaoguo sniffed the air tentatively. Well, she indeed smelled the scent of pastries, and it became clearer as she walked further!

Xiaoguo followed Mrs. Yang's instructions and drove the donkey cart forward.

When they reached a corner, Xiaoguo turned according to what Mrs. Yang said.

Now, what comes into view is a wide road with cake shops of all sizes on both sides of the road called Shangque Road.

It turns out that the scent of pastries that Xiaoguo smelled came from here.

All shops have already started business at this time. Every store has its doors open, and all kinds of cakes are placed on the counters. Pots of freshly baked cakes are placed on the grates, and there are also cakes wrapped in greaseproof paper with the name of the cake printed on it.

The greasy pastries attract passers-by, who can't help but walk into the store and order some.

"Sister-in-law, there is such a street here?"

Xiaoguo thought he had traveled all over the county, but it turned out that there really were treasure streets hidden in the alleys.

"That's right! This street is famous for its pastries. The pastries here are delicious and tasty. The most important thing is that they are available at all prices. No matter how expensive or cheap, they all have their own flavor!"

Mrs. Yang and Xiaoguo share the treasure shop in their hearts.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Some shops are already making mooncakes. This time I came here to ask Xiaoguo to buy some mooncakes to take back.

Xiaoguo was a little surprised when she heard what Mrs. Yang said. Normally, the Mid-Autumn Festival was still more than 20 days away. Why was she in such a hurry to buy mooncakes? She could just buy them when the time came.

Thinking this way, I asked this question. After hearing this, Sister Yang sighed, "It's okay. Buy some more and keep them for later use. Anyway, these mooncakes won't go bad. And, the most important thing is."

Sister Yang kept Xiao Guo in suspense while she was talking. Xiao Guo was still waiting to hear the most important point. Sister Yang saw that Xiao Guo was impatient and covered her mouth with her hands and laughed secretly, "The most important point is that this family's osmanthus wine is only available these few days. They make it, and people buy it back and ferment it for 20 days, and then they can drink it on the Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Seeing Xiaoguo's puzzled look, Mrs. Yang explained it to her seriously. Even the three children who were talking nearby were listening attentively.

Xiaoguo stopped the donkey cart and came to the store that Mrs. Yang mentioned.

Xiaoguo carried Zhuangzhuang down and looked up at the plaque, "Osmanthus House."

The names are all related to osmanthus, so it seems that everything sold in this store should be related to osmanthus.

Xiaoguo followed behind Mrs. Yang holding Zhuangzhuang. Mrs. Yang was more familiar with this place than Xiaoguo, so she led the group in front.

As soon as he entered, a strong sweet osmanthus fragrance wafted over, and Xiaoguo couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Even Zhuangzhuang could smell the refreshing fragrance. He secretly pulled Xiaoguo's hand and whispered, "Mom, this smells so good!"

Xiaoguo also nodded to Zhuangzhuang and said, yes, it is really fragrant!

The interior of the Osmanthus House is not big. The packaged snacks are piled up into a small mountain on the counter. Sister Yang turned around and said to Xiaoguo, "That's the osmanthus cakes ordered today. The orders we place every day are always more than today's."

Xiaoguo was shocked after hearing this. It seems that the taste of this store is really good! They can receive so many orders every day, so their performance must be very good!

The counter was filled with large and small jars of sealed wine, each sealed with red paper and with dates written on them with a brush. All of them were today's date.

Xiaoguo guessed that it should be osmanthus wine. Sister Yang took Xiaoguo to visit the pastry section and told her the name of every pastry she saw.

"Sister-in-law, you are a regular customer of this store, right?"

Xiaoguo saw that Sister Yang could call out every one of them by name, and guessed that she must come to this store often.

Sister Yang smiled shyly, patted her chest, and assured Xiaoguo, "You're right, this osmanthus cake is the most famous."

Xiaoguo let Zhuangzhuang go and see what he wanted. Mrs. Yang also drove Xiaohua and Xiaohu away, letting them choose what they wanted to eat.
