Chapter 650: Visiting the Shao Family to Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival



Shao Mo rubbed her head and said, "It's all in the past. You are very strong now, indestructible. I believe that nothing and no one can knock you down in the future."

Zeng Fang responded softly, "Momo, you are right. Although that incident is a shame and shadow that I will never be able to erase in my life, I am often grateful. I am grateful that it was because of your company and encouragement that I was able to pass the entrance exam to Beijing Foreign Studies University and sit here to chat and talk with you. Compared with the beauty and excitement of the next few decades, a small black spot is nothing."

“Life is like a train, constantly moving forward and passing countless landscapes and people. No matter good or bad, what has passed has passed. We can only look forward, because there is hope and expectation ahead.”

"Um."

The two chatted for a while, and the waiter brought a plate of mooncakes that the bar prepared free of charge for the guests.

The mooncakes were made very delicately and in small pieces, each one could be taken in two bites. The taste was average, not bad nor delicious. Shao Mo took one bite and fed the remaining half to Ling Chuan behind her.

By the time the show in the bar ended, it was almost one o'clock and there was little drink left on the two tables.

Everyone gathers together, fills everyone's glasses with the remaining wine and drinks, and then raises a toast together.

“Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!”

“Happy National Day!”

“I hope this day will come to us every year!”

"cheers!"

After drinking, everyone took their things and prepared to leave.

Zeng Fang found her coat and put it on while subconsciously looking across. Zhou Ye and Dai Heshun were still drinking, but Shen Zhen was nowhere to be seen.

"Fangfang, let's go."

"oh."

Hearing Shao Mo's call, Zeng Fang quickly looked away, picked up her bag and left with everyone.

In room 606 of the sanatorium, Shen Zhen, as usual, washed the man on the bed, took out a box of mooncakes, placed them on a plate, and put them on the bedside table.

Then he pulled a chair to the bedside, sat down, picked up a mooncake, and ate it while talking to the man on the bed.

"Brother, today is Mid-Autumn Festival. I bought ham mooncakes this year. Although you prefer salted egg yolk ones, you must be tired of eating them every year. Let's try a different flavor this year."

As for Shao Mo, she had to send the other two girls home first, so it was already two o'clock when she returned to the courtyard. After taking a shower, it was already three o'clock when she lay down on the bed.

The next day, Shao Mo got up late as expected, and hurried out to Shao's house at almost 10 o'clock.

Zeng Fang also went with them. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival and the Shao family is having a family dinner in the evening.

As soon as she arrived at the Shao family compound, Zeng Fang was stunned by the Shao family's grandeur and wealth.

"Momo, if this happened in ancient times, you would at least be a princess or something, right?"

Shao Mo laughed, "In ancient times, if merchants dared to live in such a house, they would have been confiscated and punished."

"Too."

In ancient times, people paid attention to the distinction between officials, farmers, merchants and artisans. Although merchants were rich, their status was very low. They could only wear ordinary cloth. And in a house like the Shao Family Courtyard, only princes, nobles and first-rank ministers were qualified to live in it.

Shao Mo first took Zeng Fang back to Mo Garden, put down her things, and took Zeng Fang to visit Mo Garden.

The artificial lake in Moyuan has been built. The entire lake is round, like a mirror, with a wooden bridge in the middle and a pavilion in the middle of the wooden bridge.

There are large areas of lotus planted in the lake. In summer, you can sit in the pavilion and enjoy the cool air and appreciate the lotus.

"Quack! Quack!"

Seeing Shao Mo, the big white and two white owls that were playing and chasing each other on the lake immediately flapped their wings and paddled over.

"Dabai, Erbai, did you miss me?"

"quack?"

After climbing ashore, Dabai and Erbai tilted their goose heads and looked at Zeng Fang with their black eyes rimmed with gold, as if to say, "I don't know you well."

Zeng Fang took out a bag of crispy dried fish from her bag and tried to use it to lure Dabai and Erbai, but the two guys didn't even look at them. Instead, they turned their heads and used their beaks to groom each other's feathers.

Zeng Fang was holding the dried fish and was puzzled. "Momo, why are Dabai and Erbai ignoring me? Didn't they love eating these crispy dried fish the most? I even went to the department store to buy them."

Shao Mo laughed, "You said it was in the past. They are different now. They usually eat more exquisite food than us. Naturally, they will look down on your dried fish."

"Forget it, I'll eat it myself."

Zeng Fang ate dried fish while strolling along the artificial lake with Shao Mo, feeling both happy and envious.

I am happy that my friend is reunited with his family and has reliable family members. At the same time, I envy my friend for being able to live in such a gorgeous house.

After visiting the Mo Garden, Shao Mo took Zeng Fang to Lan Ju to meet Mrs. Shao.

The first time she visited the Shao family, Zeng Fang prepared gifts very carefully. However, after seeing the wealth of the Shao family, she felt that the gifts she brought were simply not worth mentioning.

"Momo, I'm scared."

"What are you afraid of? You met my grandma yesterday. Although she looks a little serious, she is actually a very gentle and kind person."

"I was afraid she would dislike the small size of the gift I brought. I was so smug before that I thought your grandma would definitely like the gift I prepared."

Knowing that she was worried about this, Shao Mo smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, my grandma is not the kind of person who values ​​these things. She has lived to this age and has seen all kinds of good things. Even if you put a mountain of gold in front of her, she may not like it. Instead, give her some gifts that suit her heart, even if it is just a blade of grass, she will like it."

"That's good. Although what I sent you is not grass, it's almost the same as grass."

Shao Mo couldn't help but feel curious when she heard this.

Zeng Fang prepared the gift herself, and she didn't know what it was exactly.

However, Lanju was just ahead. She would know once she entered Lanju, so Shao Mo did not ask any more questions.

Just as Shao Mo said, Mrs. Shao was very welcome to Zeng Fang's arrival. This could be seen from the fact that she asked Sister Hua to serve cakes, candies and tea. There were several kinds of snacks alone, plus candies and drinks, filling the table with a dazzling array of items.

Zeng Fang also smiled and presented the gift she had prepared, "Grandma Shao, I heard from Momo that you like flowers and plants, so I bought a pot for you. I hope you don't mind."

Looking at the square-wrapped cardboard box, Mrs. Shao was also very curious.

When Mrs. Hua opened the carton and saw what was inside, everyone couldn't help laughing.

There is a pot of aloe vera in the cardboard box.

Seeing everyone laughing, Zeng Fang quickly explained the purpose of giving aloe vera, "Although a pot of aloe vera is not valuable, it has many uses. It can beautify the skin and remove freckles. My mother often uses it to apply on her face. It can also be fried and eaten to improve gastrointestinal function and enhance immunity. The most important thing is that it is easy to grow. Find a place to plant it. It will be a big clump next year. As long as you water it on time, it will continue to grow like this year after year. In time, it will become more and more, and it will continue to grow. So, on the surface, I gave you an aloe vera plant, but in fact, I gave you a portion of health."

Mrs. Shao was amused by her words and laughed continuously, "Not bad, not bad, Ah Hua, go find a piece of land to plant this aloe vera, don't let Miss Zeng down."

Mrs. Hua smiled and agreed.

Zeng Fang winked at Shao Mo secretly: How about it, isn’t my gift good?

Shao Mo secretly gave a thumbs up: very good!

Hehe! She is awesome!  3rd update~      (End of this chapter)
