Following Mrs. Yang's recommendation, Xiaoguo bought a pound of osmanthus cake and sesame osmanthus cakes. When she saw there were osmanthus mooncakes, she simply ordered a few more.

I also bought some snacks that Zhuangzhuang wanted to eat.

"What else do you want to eat?"

Xiaoguo asked Zhuangzhuang, and Zhuangzhuang shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to buy anything and that these few things would be enough.

The waiter was wrapping snacks for a few people. Xiao Guo came to the osmanthus wine and said to Sister Yang, "Will this wine be very intoxicating?"

Xiaoguo wanted to buy some to try, but was worried that the alcohol content was too high and she couldn't drink much.

"It's not intoxicating, don't worry, they can choose the strength themselves."

Mrs. Yang said this, and Xiaoguo felt happy. This would be great. Let's make a small altar.

Like Mrs. Yang, they each got a bottle of osmanthus wine, which was not strong in alcohol and was recommended by the waiter. He guaranteed that it had a wine aroma but was not intoxicating, just a slight tipsy feeling.

When checking out, Xiaoguo bought six items in total, including the osmanthus wine, and spent 56 wen.

Mrs. Yang bought more than Xiaoguo because she had more people in her family, spending 62 cents.

Xiaoguo feels that pastries are almost as expensive as meat.

I went out with the big bag and small pot, put them on the donkey cart first, and then came to another mooncake shop recommended by Mrs. Yang.

Xiaoguo also got off the bus and went inside to buy more things so that she wouldn't have to buy anything during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The children also got off the bus. Xiaoguo still asked Zhuangzhuang to see if there was anything he liked to eat, and told him to take it and he could pay for it himself later.

Zhuangzhuang happily started watching from the door, and told Xiaoguo when he saw something he thought was delicious.

Xiaoguo and Yang Dasao separated and each bought the mooncakes for their own family.

The waiter followed by and packed the items that Zhuangzhuang had selected.

Xiaoguo looked around and saw the names of each mooncake written on it: red bean paste mooncake, five-nut mooncake, black sesame mooncake, rose mooncake, walnut mooncake...

Xiaoguo looked around but couldn't find any egg yolk mooncakes. Her favorite mooncakes were those with egg yolk fillings, but they were not available here.

I had no choice but to buy a few red bean paste and walnut mooncakes, and two of each of the others. Except for the five-nut mooncake, Xiaoguo has never liked five-nut mooncakes, but he can try the others.

Xiao Guogang skipped the five-nut filling, but considering that Zhuangzhuang had never eaten it, he still ordered a piece.

Xiaoguo paid the bill first. He bought a lot this time, several bags in total. Xiaoguo roughly estimated that it was nearly twenty pieces. The final bill was sixty cents.

After Xiaoguo paid, he waited for Mrs. Yang. Mrs. Yang also bought a lot. After counting the bill, they returned to the donkey cart, sat down, and seeing that they had almost bought all the cakes, they drove out of Shangque Road and came to the market they often visited.

Maybe because it’s almost Mid-Autumn Festival, there are more small vendors on the road, and they sell a lot more goods and food.

Because there were so many people, it was difficult for Xiaoguo to move forward with the donkey cart, so he discussed with Mrs. Yang to park the donkey cart at the entrance of the market and walk in.

Mrs. Yang readily agreed. Fortunately, the two of them had brought a large basket from home before going out, otherwise they would not have been able to take the things they bought.

Put the cakes in the basket and carry it on your back.

The two of them took their children and came to the market. Because they each had something to buy, they separated as soon as they entered and agreed to meet again when they came out.

Xiaoguo said goodbye to Mrs. Yang, and held Zhuangzhuang's arm to look at the things being sold nearby, searching for what she needed as she walked.

Because there were many people out shopping during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiaoguo reminded Zhuangzhuang not to let go of his hand and to hold on tightly.

Zhuangzhuang is also very obedient and always holds Xiaoguo's hand tightly.

Xiaoguo first bought the thing he had been thinking about buying when he first arrived: pork.

Now that the vegetables at home are grown, I don’t need to buy them myself, but it’s time to buy meat.

I came to the stall I visited before and bought ten pounds of pork. I saw that the ribs were good, so I bought another five pounds of ribs.

While waiting for the stall owner to chop the ribs for him, Xiao Guo looked at an extra stall next to him, on which was hung meat that looked different from pork.

"Boss, is this your new stall? Is this mutton?"

The boss looked up and explained with a smile, "Yes! This is the mutton that was just slaughtered this morning."

Xiao Guo took a closer look and saw that it was indeed quite fresh. "Give me five catties of mutton."

Xiaoguo picked a piece of fat and lean lamb, preparing to wait for Qin Anming to come back and make some mutton skewers.

The boss packed the small fruits neatly and put them in the basket. Because he put oil paper in the basket, there was no need to worry about them getting on the snacks.

Carrying the basket on his back and holding Zhuangzhuang's hand, he continued walking. Along the way, he met someone selling soybeans. Xiaoguo walked over and saw that they were dried soybeans. He thought that he could make soy milk with them. He hadn't had soy milk for a long time, so he decided to go home and grind some soy milk himself.

Xiaoguo asked for five pounds of beans, two cents per pound.

At this time, while the stall owner was filling the beans, Xiaoguo did not forget to test Zhuangzhuang's arithmetic to test the results of his teaching for so long.

"Zhuangzhuang, one catty is two cents. I bought five catties. How much should I pay in total?"

Zhuangzhuang frowned, raised his free hand, and calculated bit by bit, using the simple calculation method Xiaoguo taught him, and finally came to a result.

"Mom, it's ten cents!"

Zhuangzhuang confidently gave Xiaoguo the final answer.

Before Xiaoguo could say anything, the boss next to him spoke.

"You are quite smart! You can do the math at such a young age."

Xiaoguo smiled until her eyes narrowed. She proudly asked Zhuangzhuang to thank the boss, then handed the boss ten cents, took the soybeans and put them in the basket, then left with Zhuangzhuang.

I didn't find what I needed along the way, so I went back home.

While waiting for Mrs. Yang on the donkey cart, Xiaoguo was afraid that Zhuangzhuang was hungry, so she opened a snack and gave it to Zhuangzhuang, letting him eat first.

Zhuangzhuang licked his lips and couldn't wait to put it into his mouth, but he stopped before it entered his mouth.

"Mom, you eat!"

Zhuangzhuang passed it to Xiaoguo. Even if he wanted to eat it, he had to let his mother eat it first!

Xiao Guo felt Zhuang Zhuang's thoughts, and while feeling warm in his heart, he bent down and took a light bite, only biting off the edge.

"Mmm~ The ones Zhuangzhuang gave to mom are delicious!"

Xiaoguo was generous with his praise and praised Zhuangzhuang. Zhuangzhuang was also complacent because he was the one who gave his mother the first bite of food.

Zhuangzhuang wanted to pass it to Xiaoguo, but Xiaoguo refused to eat it this time and let Zhuangzhuang eat it himself. Zhuangzhuang nodded with a smile, "Yes!"

Zhuangzhuang's two big eyes narrowed into crescents as he sat next to Xiaoguo and ate delicious osmanthus cake.

Xiaoguo rubbed Zhuangzhuang's head lovingly. This little cutie looks so pleasing to the eye!

Xiaoguo seems to have read about a situation where a child gives food to his parents and the parents say, "Mom and Dad don't want to eat it, you eat it." This is actually wrong. The child's desire to share is revealed at this moment. If the child keeps giving food to the parents and the parents always say, "If you don't want to eat it, you eat it yourself," the child will think that as long as it is food, no one else will eat it, so the child can just eat it himself, thus turning the desire to share into selfishness.

Although Xiaoguo had seen experts say this in videos before, she never took it to heart and couldn't remember what they said. But after becoming a strong mother, strangely enough, she remembered all the parenting experiences that the experts had said.
