Before they knew it, the time of sailing at sea had reached the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Xu Ning's drone had already taken pictures of the mainland from high altitude.
This time it is a real continent, not an island.
"Grandma, how about we make something else to eat?" They were going ashore tomorrow, so Xu Ning parked the boat not too far from the shore nor too close.
Since the discovery of the cannibal island, the Xu family rarely went ashore. This time, before they were ready to go ashore, Xu Ning confirmed again and again that there was only a small fishing village further along the coast.
The Xu family planned to find a place to stay in this small fishing village first.
Before going ashore, Xu Ning discussed with the Xu family and decided to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival on the boat.
Because we don’t know what the situation will be like after we get ashore, we won’t have to worry too much about what we do while we are still on the boat.
"Didn't you say barbecue?"
"Oh, I mean besides barbecue, let's make something else to eat, like mooncakes."
"What kind of cake?"
"Mooncakes! Don't we eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Old Man Xu was silent, and so were the others.
"Daya, this is how the gods eat it, right?" Old Man Xu relieved Xu Ning's embarrassment. Xu Ning chuckled, "Yes, yes, that's how the gods eat it!"
"Grandma, let me tell you, the recipe is actually very simple. Just add flour and eggs, and..."
"Xu Daya, stop it. Do it yourself. I'll watch you do it. Once you've done it, you can talk about how simple it is."
"Uh..." Can she say that she just doesn't know how to do it, so she lets others do it?
Xu Ning couldn't do that, so she could only roll up her sleeves and take the lead, and finally made seven or eight flavors of mooncakes.
Of these, half failed.
Fortunately, the failure was due to the ugly shape, not the unpalatable taste.
But even so, Old Mrs. Xu was heartbroken.
The consequence of Old Mrs. Xu's distress was that, except Xu Ning and Xu Yuan, everyone else bought up all the grotesquely ugly mooncakes.
Xu Ning wanted to treat everyone equally, but Old Lady Xu disagreed. Xu Ning felt so guilty that he had to take a big bite of the mooncake that looked like a mooncake. He secretly made a decision in his heart that he must not fail next time!
Xu Yuan looked at Xu Ning, then at Old Mrs. Xu who was staring at her, and silently took a bite of the mooncake.
"Mmm... Mom, this mooncake is so delicious!"
"It's delicious, eat more. Mom will make it for you next time. Forget it, Xu Daya." It was a waste of food. Old Mrs. Xu looked at the flour and eggs that Xu Ning had made, and kept comforting herself, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, she is her biological granddaughter, not one she picked up!
"Grandma, can I have two of these mooncakes?" Xu Feng ate a corner of the mooncake in small bites like a little mouse. After swallowing the mooncake in his mouth, he looked up and asked Grandma Xu.
"Eat one this time and save it for the next meal. Your second sister said that mooncakes are hard to digest. Don't complain about stomachache if you overeat later."
"And Dabao, the same goes for the mooncakes. They have so much sugar in them that they won't go bad. Just eat them slowly, okay?"
"I understand, grandma!" The Xu family's two treasures agreed together.
"Chunhua, can I have two?" Old Man Xu really likes soft foods like mooncakes, which don't require much chewing and are sweet.
"You can't do that either. You'll have food stagnation even when you're older!"
"Mom, what about me?" Xu Da finished a mooncake in just a few bites. He hadn't tasted anything yet and was about to eat the second one.
"You love to eat. Why do you still ask me when you're already that old? Can't you just walk around a bit after eating?"
"Chunhua, I can also walk a few laps by myself..." Old Man Xu's voice gradually lowered under the gaze of Old Lady Xu, and in the end only a flattering look remained.
Xu Ning laughed out loud at the scene. Old Mrs. Xu turned around and glared at her. Xu Ning covered her mouth and continued to laugh. Even Xu Yuan, who was chewing beside her, couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
As the night deepened, the moon rose from the sea. The white moon looked like a big white pancake.
"Daya, the moon is clearly white, why are the mooncakes yellow?"
