I'm not a pet

Chapter 49 Drunken Sakura

In the past few days, Baozhu found that Ruyixuan had returned to its previous order.

Lu Yunchu still came every day, but it was no longer the case when Ruyixuan opened for business in the morning.Only come every noon and evening meal time.Every time I always finish my meal in a hurry and leave.

Of course, as long as he was around, the eyes were still on his little doorman.

With the adjustment of Lu Yunchu's visit to Ruyixuan, his time as a fan has also changed.There are fewer cases of crowding in to occupy seats before the meal time, and fewer cases of occupying seats after eating...

Baozhu said she likes the change.Because she can resume the previous start time again, she no longer has to go to work an hour and a half earlier every day.

……

Ruyixuan's business is very good today!But it wasn't because of Lu Yunchu.

Baozhu realized later, and asked Xiaowu to find out that today is the [-]th day of the eighth lunar month—the Mid-Autumn Festival!

Return to the backyard after work at night.Sitting at the stone table, Baozhu looked at the bright full moon in the sky and felt extremely lonely.

Baozhu was homesick.

She is the only daughter in the family, and her parents only had her in their 30s, and they regarded her as the apple of their eye, so after she was born, they named her "Zhu" without even thinking about it.

Both parents are university professors. Although they love her dearly, they are always busy with work and their own scientific research, so they don't have much time to accompany her.

As long as she can remember, she has been alone.From a young age, when other children were laughing and playing in the yard, she could only watch them through the window.Because her parents were busy with work and worried about her safety, they locked her in the house alone.

When she was eight years old, in the third grade of elementary school, she once visited her uncle's house and found that her cousin, who was two years older than herself, was playing computer games. She was immediately attracted.That was her first contact with "Magic Trace".

When she got home, she downloaded "Magic Trail" on the computer her parents bought her.From then on, when other children were playing outside the window, the little girl who looked at them through the glass eyes could no longer be seen, because she had her own entertainment world.In that game world, she still walks alone, fights monsters alone, uses her own eyes to see the grievances and hatreds in the magical world, and uses her own way to unlock various game tasks. In the past 16 years, even though the game players have changed one after another, she has always remained in place and never changed.

After growing up, he studied abroad, and directly studied for a master's degree after his undergraduate degree.When she was about to graduate, her parents had arranged a good job for her in her hometown, but she refused.That was the first time she refused the request of her parents, she wanted to have her own life.Because of her excellent grades, she was retained in school as a counselor.And the place where she works is [-] kilometers away from her parents and her hometown.

She yearns for freedom and a different life.It's just that 24 years of family education and living habits have been integrated into her bones. She doesn't like to socialize with others. Most of the time, she lives in her own world, and the world of "Magic Trace".

In the past 23 years of her real life, she spent every Mid-Autumn Festival with her parents.

After traveling for more than a year, she has thought countless times, what state is she in in real life now?Is the time here synchronized with real time?Perhaps, as described in many time-travel novels, she has become an unconscious vegetable?Have her parents left their jobs to take care of her and be with her?And her group of students who always make me worry about it, do you miss her?

Thinking of this, Baozhu's eyes became a little sour.

Thinking back to last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, she spent it with Aunt Bao.

The moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival in Qingxi Village is so bright and round!At that time, she and Aunt Bao were standing by the Qingxi River, she had been looking at the big and round moon, and Aunt Bao had been looking at her with pity...

I've been out for so long, and I don't know if everything is alright, Auntie?Brother Baiyu's child will be born soon, right?And those cherry blossom trees in Qingxi Village, those are the most beautiful cherry blossoms she has ever seen!
Thinking of Sakura, she suddenly remembered something...

When she was squatting under the pear tree in the corner of the backyard, she heard a voice behind her.

"Little Pearl, what are you doing at night?" Boss Hua asked in surprise.

"Ah? Boss Hua, are you here? Good evening!" Baozhu greeted Boss Hua politely, but her hands didn't stop...

Seeing that she didn't stand up to greet her as usual, Boss Hua put the things she was holding on the stone table, so he went to the corner to look at her.

"Boss Hua, sit down first, I'll be fine in a while!" Baozhu was busy, her hands were covered with mud, and a lot of her cheeks were also stained.

"You are a typical middle-of-the-night poacher!" Boss Hua stood behind her and joked.

Baozhu didn't know how to answer the conversation, so she just dug.Finally, the next moment she said happily: "Okay, I got it!"

Following her words, Boss Hua looked over, and there were actually two jars buried under the tree.

He took out two jars like precious jewels, gently wiped off the dirt on them, turned around and put them on the stone table, and happened to see the things Hua Boss put on the stone table...

"Moon cake?" Bao Zhu exclaimed, with joy in her tone.

There was a cardboard box on the stone table, and there were four exquisite moon cakes lying in the box.

"This is……"

"Employee benefits! Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival today? So give out mooncakes..."

"Boss Hua, you are so kind!" Baozhu called out joyfully again.

Boss Hua became uncomfortable when she said that. He touched his nose and said, "You girl is too easy to deceive, aren't you? Just a few months of cakes will make you happy like this!"

"Wrong! Mooncakes can't deceive me! It's just that eating mooncakes on a day like today has a different meaning!" Baozhu raised her face and answered, so she would not tell him that she and her parents eat mooncakes every year on Mid-Autumn Festival. do.

Every Mid-Autumn Festival, no matter how busy her parents are, even if she later works in other places, every Mid-Autumn Festival, she and her parents will rush home to eat mooncakes together.

"Go and wash, your hands and face are just..." Boss Hua looked at her with disgust again.

She quickly washed her hands and face, and ran back to the stone table, looking at the mooncakes in the box with bright eyes.

"What's in your two jars?" Boss Hua asked.

"This is the wine I made myself, let's try it together?" Baozhu said happily.

These two jars of wine were made when she first came to Ruyi Xuan.

At that time, the cherry blossoms were still in full bloom, and every time she stood in front of the gate of Ruyixuan, a large number of petals would always fall from that cherry blossom tree.At the beginning, she would often look at the cherry tree in a daze, thinking about the past, and thinking about everything she should miss.Later, she began to collect the fallen petals.

In reality, a colleague in the same office loves to drink wine and prefers to make wine by himself. Baozhu was curious and asked about the production process of wine.

When she collected enough petals, she followed the wine making process and used the petals as raw materials to make two jars of wine.There is no refrigerator here to keep it, so she buried two jars of wine under the cool pear tree in the corner of the backyard just like the ancients.

"Little Zhu'er, you are really amazing! You can even make wine?" Boss Hua exclaimed, and then asked, "What kind of wine is this?"

"Huh?" I really didn't think about naming her wine, my mind turned away, and after a while, my eyes lit up and said:
"Let's call it Drunken Cherry Blossom!"
