After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 273 Moon Cake
There were a lot of people, so Su Mo was not at ease, so he stretched out his hand to hold Gu Ping'an.

Gu Qinhan stood on the other side of Su Mo, one step behind Su Mo, hugged Gu Xingnian with one hand, and raised the other hand to block Su Mo's back, so as to prevent people with short-sightedness from approaching.

When the four of them walked to the edge of the lake around the city, the sky had already darkened, and a full moon swayed on the branches.

The little girl stood tall and looked far away. She was very excited when she looked at the brightly lit painting boat.

So big, so beautiful!

Gu Qinhan's stature stood out from the crowd, and he noticed the little girl's gaze and followed her.

The time was just right, the lanterns on the lake were lit up, and the sound of silk and bamboo from the painting boat sounded, and then several graceful women moved to the bow of the boat, twisting their bodies and dancing.

The flower boat docked on the shore began to carry passengers, the oars were moved, and the scene reflected on the water surface fluctuated and shimmered with the ripples.

Gu Qinhan only felt that some fragments flashed in his mind, his brows were furrowed tightly, and he wanted to see clearly but found that he couldn't remember anything, but he still felt a dull pain.

He closed his eyes and shook his head slightly.

Su Mo noticed something was wrong with Gu Qinhan, she stood still, turned to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Hearing Su Mo's voice, Gu Qinhan opened his eyes abruptly, and Su Mo's gorgeous face came into view. He was stunned, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind, in which was a familiar face...

Gu Qinhan's Adam's apple moved slightly, his eyelids drooped slightly, covering the glint in his black eyes, and when he raised them again, his eyes were calm.

He shook his head and smiled slightly, "It's okay, it's just that someone stepped on it just now."

Su Mo saw that he didn't look like he was lying, so he didn't think much about it. Besides, there are so many people on the street, it's quite normal to be stepped on.

She nodded slightly, although she couldn't see Gu Qinhan's feet, she still looked down subconsciously.

"Is it serious? If it is serious, we will find a place to rest."

The shops on one side of the street naturally have restaurants and teahouses, and there are also tables and chairs placed by vendors on the shore, like a long snake, for people to rest for free.

If you want to eat, you can ask your companions to go to a nearby restaurant and teahouse to say hello, and after giving the money, a waiter will send it to the place.

Gu Qinhan shook his head, "It's not serious, let's continue shopping, I think the lanterns in front of you are pretty, let's go buy some, we can hang them in the yard then."

Since Gu Qinhan said it was fine, Su Mo didn't insist, turned around and continued walking forward.

The little girl wanted to eat sugar figurines, so she whispered in Gu Qinhan's ear, asking Gu Qinhan to buy them for him.

Gu Qinhan was unmoved, "If you want to eat, you have to tell your mother, and she can only buy it if she agrees."

Gu Xingnian pursed her lips, opened her mouth and shouted, "Mother~Mother~"

Su Mo heard the voice and looked over, "What's wrong?"

The little girl blinked and pointed to the sugar seller's booth not far away, "I want to eat this~"

"No." Su Mo saw clearly the booth she was pointing at and refused decisively, "You have eaten a lot of sweets these days, and the candy man is too tired to eat."

Gu Xingnian didn't give up, looked at Su Mo eagerly, and said coquettishly: "Mother, just buy one, okay?"

"Not good." Su Mo was unmoved, but threatened the little girl and said, "Do you want to take that bitter medicine like your elder brother?"

Gu Xingnian recalled the taste, and felt that her mouth was already bitter, she quickly shook her head, and the little sugar figure was also gone.

Su Mo succeeded, smiled in satisfaction, and raised her hand to rub her head, but remembered that the little girl was well-dressed today, with pearls on her hair.

She paused, and instead rubbed the little girl's chubby cheeks, "Hey, mother will buy you some mooncakes later."

Last year's Moon Worship Festival, Su Mo didn't buy mooncakes for the children, so Gu Xingnian hadn't eaten mooncakes yet. Hearing this, he blinked his eyes and was a little curious.

"Are the mooncakes delicious?"

Su Mo thought for a while, "Mother is not sure, you will know when you eat."

After all, whether the mooncakes are good or not depends on the craftsmanship of the mooncake maker. Anyway, in the memory of the original owner, there are good and bad.

Gu Xingnian rolled his eyes, stopped asking, and quietly lay on Gu Qinhan's body.

And Gu Ping'an was still a little excited when the younger sister mentioned the candy man, thinking that if his mother agreed to the younger sister, then he would also take the opportunity to say that he would eat candied haws.

But in the end, my mother didn't agree, and brought up the medicine...

Gu Ping'an lost interest in street food all at once.

Su Mo kept her promise, and stopped in front of a mooncake stall where many people bought it.

The stall owner is a couple, quite young, and there is a child about five or six years old sitting behind him, holding mooncakes and eating deliciously.

"What does the lady want?"

"What's the stuffing?"

Su Mo turned her gaze to the booth. The mooncakes were covered with bamboo covers, leaving only a small opening, and two rows of mooncakes could be seen neatly arranged.

In the Yong Dynasty, there was an oven, an earthen kiln oven made of mud, which was quite large. At first, it was used to cook roast chicken and duck. Later, someone tried to bake mooncakes, and found that the mooncakes they made were more fragrant and delicious. Later, gradually the moon cakes were baked in an oven.

It is a test of the heat in an earthen kiln oven, and judging from the appearance of this mooncake, it is obvious that the husband and wife have a good grasp of the heat.

The woman on the other side of the booth smiled and pointed to the mooncakes on her booth, "This one is date paste, this one is bean paste, and there are five kernels, egg yolk, and bacon."

"I want one, can you cut it?"

"Of course, I'll pack them separately for you so that the flavors won't get mixed up." The woman readily agreed, took the lid off a bit, picked up the mooncakes with a bamboo clip, put them on oiled paper, cut them into four pieces, first Wrap one layer, then put four bamboo sticks, continue to wrap the oil paper, and tie it with a fine hemp rope.

After packing all the mooncakes that Su Mo wanted, she handed them over and told Su Mo the price.

Su Mo didn't pick up the mooncakes, but paid for them. As for the mooncakes, of course Gu Qinhan took them.

There were more people on the street, so Su Mo simply went to the tables and chairs on the shore.

"Let's take a break to see if this mooncake is delicious."

She picked an empty seat and sat down.

Gu Xingnian twisted her small body, got off Gu Qinhan's body, and kept her eyes fixed on the mooncake that Gu Qinhan was carrying.

"Little greedy cat!" Su Mo smiled when she saw it, and raised her hand to tap her nose.

Gu Xingnian blinked, pretending not to hear.

Su Mo and Gu Qinhan opened the oiled paper bag together, and then divided the small bamboo sticks, "Okay, let's eat!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the little girl couldn't wait any longer, so she stretched out her hand and inserted a small piece. She is not picky about food and will eat anything.

It's just that you can't eat too much roasted food. Su Mo stopped her after she finished eating her own portion.

"You can't continue eating."

Gu Xingnian pouted, but didn't make a fuss: "That's good."

Su Mo pinched her cheek, "Be good."

Gu Ping'an thought of the bitterness of the medicine because of what Su Mo would say. Seeing that the mooncakes had no appetite at all, after eating a piece, he put the small bamboo sticks away.

"Mom, I don't like mooncakes, you can eat them."

Su Mo raised her eyebrows, "You really don't want to eat?"

Gu Pingan nodded sharply.

Su Mo was overjoyed, she was indeed hungry, and even a little mooncake was not enough for her to stuff her teeth.
