Lin Mo looked at the new clothes Su Mu bought for him, and the smile on his face was so sweet that it penetrated his heart.
Seeing that Su Mu didn't prepare a gift for him, Lin Mo decided to take him out for a walk. Lin Mo took Su Mu's hand and walked around the streets, visiting all corners of the city.
But not only did Lin Mo not spend a penny, but he also gained a lot of things, all of which were bought by Su Mu.
Su Mu once said that he also wanted to make money for Lin Mohua, and now he finally did it. Although the money was not much, it was a good start.
Because the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, they plan to return to the village in the afternoon to spend a reunion Mid-Autumn Festival with Awen and Awu as a family, and they plan to buy some mooncakes to bring back for Awen and the others.
The two of them visited the most famous mooncake shop in town. The exquisitely packaged boxes of all sizes were as beautiful as jewelry boxes.
Su Mu first picked out a box of Seven Stars and the Moon, which contained eight flavors of mooncakes, each with a different color.
Seven small ones accompany a large one, making this a "Seven Stars and the Moon." The large one is filled with white lotus seed paste and double egg yolks, while the smaller ones come in sweet and savory flavors. Sweet options include black lotus seed paste, white lotus seed paste, five-nut paste, and red bean paste, while savory options include barbecued pork and barbecued pork with salted egg yolk.
Su Mu then picked out several boxes of other styles. Thinking that Awen and Tuanzi liked sweets, he bought a few more boxes of white lotus seed paste and egg yolk.
The eldest brother, Lu Amo and the second brother like to eat five-nut mooncakes, so he took three more boxes of five-nut mooncakes.
As for what flavor Lin Mo likes to eat, he is not picky about either flavor. The main thing is that if you eat too much of the food you like, you will get tired of it. Such a big mooncake must be cut into four pieces at least.
Su Mu had never eaten mooncakes when he was a child. His family didn't like him and they were poor, so he had never celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival. He would always watch the village chief's family celebrate and experience the atmosphere.
Su Mu was really happy thinking that he could finally celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival this year. He went to several stores and bought mooncakes from several factions.
Since Lin Mo said he liked Cantonese mooncakes, I bought some more, and also bought a box of others to try.
That night, Lin Mo took Su Mu to the roof of the shop to watch the stars and the moon. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, he told Su Mu about the interesting things about the holidays in their world.
He said: "Before the end of the world, every week or two before the Mid-Autumn Festival, relatives would come one after another to give mooncakes. In our area, all married women would go back to their parents' home to give mooncakes to their relatives.
This is the case every year until the Mid-Autumn Festival, when our family will gather together in the evening to celebrate the moonlight.
The table is filled with a lot of food, such as moon cakes, fruits, pomelo, etc. There is also a basin of water to reflect the moonlight, so you don’t have to look up to see it.
Children would run around the village with lanterns and set off fireworks. Unfortunately, after a while, these festivals were forgotten.
In the end times, people only need to survive, and they don’t need these things. Gradually, all traditional things began to be lost. The new generation has never seen them, and the older generation has not passed them down.
After a long time, it will be submerged in the tide of the times, and will not be dug out and studied until hundreds or thousands of years later.
Su Mu understood Lin Mo's thoughts. He wanted to help him celebrate this festival, so that the whole family could sit together and have a good Mid-Autumn Festival.
That's why Su Mu bought so many mooncakes. He was also thoughtful and bought a lot of lanterns that children liked. He planned to go back to the village and give one to each child.
Of course, he also secretly kept a carp lantern for himself.
