The customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival in Lindu are slightly different from those in Qingzhou.

The custom in Qingzhou is to make moon cakes in advance, and on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, the whole family will have a reunion meal, and after offering sacrifices to the moon, they sit together to enjoy the moon and eat moon cakes.

But this is not the case for the Mid-Autumn Festival in Lindu. The mooncakes must be made fresh on the day so that they taste fresh.

Lindu also has the custom of giving mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. People who receive mooncakes will give back mooncakes and various fresh fruits made by themselves.

Therefore, although the Mid-Autumn Festival is only one day, it is necessary to purchase various ingredients half a month in advance.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the kitchen stays up almost all night, busy baking moon cakes, and the fragrance of the moon cakes wafts in the air.

Although Mrs. Mu doesn't have to watch over to make moon cakes, she still has to get up early in the morning to make arrangements for giving gifts in return.

Although there are lists to follow every year, Madam Mu couldn't help sighing when she turned to Cheng'anbo Mansion. In the past, Cheng'anbo Mansion was the first to come to the house to deliver mooncakes, and I don't know if it will come again this year.

But no matter what, Mrs. Mu still prepared all the gifts for Cheng'anbo Mansion.

When Chang Luoyun came over, Mrs. Mu had already arranged everything.

She pulled Chang Luoyun over and smiled, "Don't worry about anything these few days, just keep your energy up."

Mrs. Mu's personality is gentle and gentle, and she speaks softly, making her even more amiable.

Chang Luoyun smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Madam for your love."

Mrs. Mu said, "Since you have entered my house, you are naturally a member of my family. I should treat you well."

She looked ahead and laughed, "Jing Yi is here to look for you."

Chang Luoyun turned his head and saw Mu Jingyi striding over. He was wearing a black Taoist robe embroidered with cloud patterns, and he looked even more majestic.

"Mother," he stepped forward and saluted, "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, Yun'er and I will go to Luoxia Mountain."

Madam Mu said with a smile: "Go, the moon cakes are ready, go early and return early."

Chang Luoyun stood up and bowed low to Mrs. Mu.

Madam Mu looked at the backs of Mu Jingyi and Chang Luoyun, and said with a smile: "Jingyi's vision is really good, Yun'er advances and retreats properly, the more I look at it, the more I like it."

Yun Cai smiled and said: "In this world, it's rare to see someone who loves his wife like Madam."

Mrs. Mu smiled melancholy, "As long as she really treats Jing Yi well, I can't spoil her too much."

The horse-drawn carriage on the road into the mountain was impassable, so Mu Jingyi and Chang Luoyun only took Liang Qi out of the door.

Chang Luoyun didn't know who lived on Luoxia Mountain, but seeing Mu Jingyi personally deliver the mooncakes, and Mrs. Mu had prepared the mooncakes in advance, she thought it might be a respectable old man, and the relationship with the Houfu was definitely Not ordinary.

When they arrived at Luoxia Mountain, they were stunned when they saw Xu Yulun.

Xu Yulun and Mu Jingyi are about the same age, and they are elegant and handsome. Standing there, they are handsome young men.

It's just that I don't know how he came to live in Luoxia Mountain by himself. No wonder the world has only heard of Miracle Doctor Xu, but they can't find him.

However, it is natural for a person like a genius doctor to have some eccentricities, and it is not surprising that he lives on the mountain.

Liang Qi handed the basket containing the mooncakes to Yu Lun, and Yu Lun took the basket and said brightly, "Lord Muhou finally got what he wanted, and now he is considered complete."

Mu Jingyi said: "So you must give me a big gift."

"That's natural," Yu Lun said.

While speaking, Yu Lun had brought Mu Jingyi and Chang Luoyun to the room.Although the house is not big, it is very clean and tidy.

There are pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table next to the window, and the teapot and several black pottery teacups are placed on a long ebony table in the middle.

"Knowing that you are coming, I have already prepared tea." Yu Lun lifted his robe and sat cross-legged in front of the low ebony table, picked up the teapot and poured tea into the cup, and handed it to Mu Jingyi.

Mu Jingyi also sat cross-legged opposite Yu Lun, took the teacup and handed it to Chang Luoyun before taking a cup from Yu Lun himself.

Chang Luoyun knelt down in front of the table, took a sip of tea.This tea has a faint medicinal fragrance, and it really deserves to be the tea of ​​the doctor's family.

"You still refuse to go down the mountain?" Mu Jingyi said.

"What's so good about going down the mountain, where I can be at ease here." Yu Lun said with a faint smile, "I'm not Lord Mu, and I don't have any distracting thoughts in my heart. It doesn't make any difference to me whether I go down the mountain or not."

Mu Jingyi said: "There is a severe drought in Qi country, and now the price of rice is getting higher and higher, many people can't afford food, so they have to drag their families to Lindu to find a way to survive.

Nowadays, more and more refugees are gathering in Lindu, and this winter, it is unknown how many people will die here again. "

Yu Lun's brows were full of tiredness, "It's okay for the Holy One to emphasize literature over military affairs, but now he values ​​business over agriculture. You must know that agriculture is the foundation of the people, and the world can only be safe with food."

Back then, he also wanted to be an official, but so what if he couldn't plead for the people, he might as well be a doctor.

Mu Jingyi drank a cup of Chinese herbal tea in one gulp, and suddenly asked, "How is Xia Ying?"

"It has already bloomed." Yu Lun said lightly, "In another month, it should be able to be used as medicine."

"I'll go and have a look." Mu Jingyi stood up.

Yu Lun put down the teacup, got up and said with a smile, "I thought you were not interested."

Mu Jingyi: "Knowing that you have guarded this baby on Luoxia Mountain for three years, I am of course curious about what this baby looks like."

"Yun'er, let's go and have a look together." Mu Jingyi said.

Chang Luoyun was curious about what this Xiaying was, when she heard Mu Jingyi asked her to see it, she immediately followed behind Mu Jingyi.

Yu Lun didn't say anything, just walked along the back of the house, and after a long walk, the front suddenly opened up, Chang Luoyun looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes lit up.

It is already autumn, but there is a large piece of purple-red flowers blooming in front of it. These flowers are the size of a bowl, a bit like peonies, but they have a faint fragrance.

"That's right," Mu Jingyi said in admiration, "You've really grown into Xia Ying."

"Bailing Pill lacks this taste now," Yu Lun looked at the rosy shadows, with a childlike pampering in his eyes, "In winter, we can dispense medicine."

"Doctor Xu, I don't know what is the use of this Xia Ying?" Chang Luoyun asked.

Yu Lun said with a smile, "If it's just this Xiaying, it's actually useless. It's just that I'm making a medicine, and this Xiaying must be used as medicine to exert its effect."

"If a genius doctor needs such a medicine, he can have it planted by someone, and there is no need to go to this inaccessible place to plant it himself.

The genius doctor is very skilled in medicine, it's too wasteful to live here. "Chang Luoyun said.

Mu Jingyi smiled and looked at Yu Lun, "Yu Lun, what Yun'er said makes sense, it's really too wasteful for you to hide here."

Yu Lun's white clothes fluttered, and his smile was so clear that he smiled, "The fourth girl only knows one thing and doesn't know the other. This Xiaying is not so easy to grow. Because of this, it took me three years to get such a small piece.

In addition, planting medicinal materials is not the same as planting flowers. Otherwise, the same medicinal materials have different medicinal effects in different places of origin. "

Chang Luoyun greeted Yingying: "Chang Si is ignorant and ignorant, it's presumptuous."

Yu Lun said, "What the fourth girl said is not unreasonable, it's just that the time is not right now."

If the time is not enough, when the time comes, will Miracle Doctor Xu go down the mountain?
When leaving, Yu Lun took out a white porcelain thin-mouth bottle and handed it to Mu Jingyi, "I have already increased the dosage of the old lady's medicine, but after all, the old lady has been sick for a long time, so you have to be careful Prepare."

Mu Jingyi's eyes darkened, he took the bottle and put it in his arms, "Thank you!"

Yu Lun glanced at him, nodded, but didn't speak.
