A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 335 Can’t survive the Mid-Autumn Festival

Since the advent of the airplane, the fact that people can go to heaven is no longer defined as a miracle.

Even the "ignorance" of ordinary people has been enlightened a lot by the progress and development of science.

Maybe it's one thing to fly in the sky, but it's another thing to fly to the moon.

In mid-July, the latest news from the beautiful country shocked the world.

Their spacecraft actually led astronauts to achieve the first human landing on the moon.

Let’s not mention the official attitude.

When the Chinese people heard this news from the radio and newspapers, it was like hearing it from heaven.

moon?

Isn't that the place where Chang'e stayed?

Anyway, the neighbors in the courtyard are quite disappointed.

If the third uncle is working normally, the third aunt will definitely not say this here.

Because now the Mid-Autumn Festival is a big festival.

What, why is the moon such a place where birds don’t poop? Even if you don’t point out that there is really Chang’e on it, there are flowers and grass at least.

"What's going on? There's no Chang'e anymore. Who should I commemorate? Could it be commemorating the dirt on the moon?" The third aunt was the first to express her opinion.

This is where the gods live!
The common people and scientific researchers are all puzzled.

What ordinary people can't figure out is how their ancestors lied to others, and whether they can trust their ancestors in the future.

Below is the invoice, buy it yourself.

But now, none of the people sitting in front of Li Xiang's house smiled, but were discussing it seriously.

Before anyone stepped on the moon, if you asked ten people, nine out of ten would firmly believe it.

Then when they went up, did they see Chang'e?

What the researchers couldn't figure out was how on earth they put their feet up there.

Li Xiang is not aware of the reactions he saw elsewhere.

When encountering large units with many employees, mooncakes are distributed selectively, and senior staff and leaders will directly distribute mooncakes.

It's one thing to have her three views shattered. She mainly thinks that she won't have to commemorate this in the future, and she can save some money to buy moon cakes.

When the photos of the moon landing came in, the already dark photos were blurred by the newspaper process and turned completely black.

If this question were raised in the future, it would only make everyone laugh.

"I have a question now, and I want to ask everyone's opinion. On August 15th, will we still be able to celebrate the festival and eat mooncakes?" After the TV program ended in the evening, He Yuzhu couldn't help but stand up and asked everyone asked.

Although most units do not have holidays, many units will give out a tube of mooncakes to their employees.

It is not surprising at all that the people reacted like this.

Growing up, we have all heard the mythical story of Chang'e secretly taking the fairy medicine, abandoning Hou Yi, and flying to the Guanghan Palace in the moon.

In the past, schools would provide this benefit to teachers, but it has disappeared in the past two years.

If you don’t have a job, or if your employer doesn’t pay you, you don’t have to worry about not being able to eat.

Some time before the Mid-Autumn Festival, major supply and marketing cooperatives and stores will put on shelves a large number of mooncakes to meet people's needs for the festival.

It's just a little expensive, not only do you need food stamps, but you also need pastry stamps.

It is like saying there is no limit, but it can set conditions for consumers on the spending threshold.

Such a large expense makes it impossible for women who are diligent and thrifty to buy lavishly.

I buy two pieces in bulk, cut the mooncakes into several portions, and share them with the whole family, which is considered a holiday.

If you are in a rural area where there are no tickets, the brigade will arrange for people to do it yourself.

Although it lacks sugar and oil, it does not dampen everyone's enthusiasm for the festival. This mooncake is not too sweet, but everyone still enjoys it.

We have maintained this festival tradition for so many years. How can we give it up easily without Chang'e on the moon?

To be completely realistic, most working families in the courtyard are reluctant to give up mooncakes even if they can give up Chang'e.

"Why can't you? The moon is so big, maybe the foreign devil with short legs didn't hit it." The second aunt was able to give out three tubes of mooncakes at home this year.

For the sake of moon cakes, she must also become a supporter of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"What's so delicious about mooncakes? They're just sweet." The third aunt muttered. If the whole hospital really had them, their family would have to spend money to buy them in order to save their face.

Aunt Wang, who was sitting next to their house, didn't understand what the family was trying to do.

Let’s say their family is poor. They have a tape recorder and a bicycle.

It can be said that their family is not poor. On the premise that the eldest brother Yan Jiecheng has a ticket, he still has to worry about how many months of cakes to buy.

"Mom, if our father sends this message, do you still want to buy Brother Sheng's ticket?" Ruan Qiaozhen asked her mother-in-law.

"Buy it, why don't you buy it? There is no rule that mooncakes can only be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you can't finish them, you and Yun'er will be together every day." Aunt Wang turned around and said to her niece who has become a daughter-in-law. Wen Sheng replied.

Ruan Qiaozhen shook her head slightly and glanced at her father-in-law and husband sitting in front.

He said to his mother-in-law: "You and dad treat me as your own daughter. I feel bad about eating alone. It's better to share the food together."

Aunt Wang felt extremely comforted when she said this, and she felt even less regretful about the choice of kissing her.

How can outsiders be as good as our own people?

After everyone's discussion, the topic about the Mid-Autumn Festival gradually shifted to the taste of mooncakes.

The best-selling flavors now are five kernels and jujube paste.

The former are mostly sold in stores or distributed by units, while the latter are mostly made by oneself.

The oily appearance of the Cantonese style, which is applied to the firm skin, has not yet become popular.

What everyone eats is still the kind that when you take a bite, the skin will sizzle and fall off.

Li Xiang doesn't like either taste or skin.

If you are forced to choose one, you can bite the bullet and eat a jujube paste.

If Mother Li gave him Wuren's, he would shake his head so much that he could not see his facial features clearly.

Especially the melon seeds, green and red silk, sesame seeds, etc. wrapped in the five kernels, and occasionally you can also eat large pieces of rock sugar.

This is a delicacy for others, but a nightmare for Li Xiang.

Ever since the family could afford mooncakes, Li's mother would scold him every year because he refused to eat mooncakes.

In the following years, he would go to the store to buy jujube paste cores just because he was alone.

If the store happens to not have it, you have to go to someone who has it to exchange it.

The eldest aunt learned about his picky problem from Mother Li, and when the brigade organized the making of moon cakes later, she specially brought extra candies at home.

Choose a few, add a lot of sugar inside, and mark them.

When it's ready, take it home and deliver it to the Li family.

It's so troublesome, just because of this picky person, don't empty your mouth on the Mid-Autumn Festival, at least eat something to suit the occasion.

Li Xiang felt helpless because his habits caused so much trouble to his family.

It’s not that he doesn’t eat mooncakes, he still likes them if they have a core.

Over the years, the system has only signed in three times, not even the full amount.

Li Xiang didn't even know how long it would take before he could achieve freedom with egg yolk and lotus paste.
