This is a custom in the countryside, and it may vary from place to place.
Lin Congzhi had not worshipped the moon with his parents for a long time, so he followed them up.
With nothing to do and full of curiosity, Gao Jiakai also went up to the rooftop.
This custom is quite strange; he had never seen it in the United States, nor had he ever seen his parents do it.
On the Mid-Autumn Festival, they might eat some mooncakes at home as a way of commemorating their motherland's festival.
The moon is at its fullest on the fifteenth of August.
Looking up at the starry sky brightened by the moon, Lin Congzhi prayed in his heart, also sending his longing to Jiang Yimei far away, hoping that he and Jiang Yimei would reunite soon and enter the hall of marriage.
On the other side of the starry sky, Jiang Yimei was also gazing at the moon from the rooftop.
At this moment, all she could think about was Lin Congzhi.
She didn't know if the Old Man Under the Moon's blessing would work, but if it did, then the wish she made to the moon seven years ago might come true.
Because after she made her wish that year, she vaguely saw a shooting star streak across the big moon.
She felt much more relaxed after receiving the 100,000 yuan.
Perhaps she felt she had no more regrets towards Jiang Ze, or perhaps she felt that her relationship with Jiang Ze had come to an end.
Tonight, she will give the private investigator Jiang Ze's hometown address.
She couldn't wait to know the truth, and she couldn't wait to be freed.
Under the starry sky, another couple also gazed silently at the round moon, each lost in their own thoughts.
When he was a child, Gao Jiakai had heard his parents mention the legend of the Old Man Under the Moon.
Legends are usually false, but for some reason, he always held onto a hope that his dream would come true.
This time, his dream is: that Brother Lin and his family are healthy and happy; that Brother Lin and Sister-in-law Jiang will be together soon; and finally, that he himself... can find a beautiful love.
Yao Yao wasn't as lost as him.
Regarding this relationship, she hopes to marry Gao Jiakai soon, have children, and have a happy family.
As she thought about it, she suddenly blushed and felt shy, wondering if she had been too hasty.
Under the Chinese sky, everyone's prayers for the future are different.
With this hope, most people fell asleep peacefully, while only a few tossed and turned.
...
The following day, the last day of the holiday, Lin Congzhi wanted to take his parents up to experience city life.
Lin's parents initially refused, but after Lin Congzhi's repeated persuasion and pleading, they finally agreed.
As early as last night, news of his meteoric rise to fame had spread throughout the entire village, and even his relatives knew about it.
The family's relatives are usually in the village and town, with the furthest being in the nearby town.
This was due to the underdeveloped transportation at that time, so people could only get married in remote areas.
Upon learning that the Lin family had produced a promising young man, relatives traveled from afar to flatter and fawn over him.
This is a common folk custom: people fawn over those who can help them, but ignore them no matter how much they call.
The Lin family home was packed with people early in the morning.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces, Lin Congzhi felt a little nauseous for some reason.
Back then, when his parents asked these people for money, they wouldn't lend them a penny; now that he's successful, they're fawning over him. It's disgusting.
Nevertheless, he couldn't get angry, after all, these were his seniors, and he should still show them the proper courtesy.
However, whether these people need his help or want to borrow money from him depends on who has the best persuasive skills.
