It is the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar again, and the crescent moon hung in the sky has also become moon cakes. The Mid-Autumn Festival originated in the Tang Dynasty. As one of the oldest traditional festivals in China, people often choose a family on this day Get together for a reunion, and this new year is the thousandth year since the Mid-Autumn Festival has become a calendar god.
At this time in previous years, he would only hold his white-haired and pink-eyed Yaolangjun to admire the moon and drink and drink alone. Osmanthus and chrysanthemums bloom very well in autumn. Although they are not as lively as the blooming of a hundred flowers in spring, they are always full of elegance and elegance. In addition, the Mid-Autumn Festival does not like sweets, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s a mooncake filled with egg yolk or five nuts. He respects the stuffed mooncakes.
In some ordinary days below, people always like to take some gorgeous and fancy moon cake gift boxes to honor his old man. At this time, the mid-autumn monarch, who has always been gentle and polite, and has a bright temperament, will face his home with a headache. The furry Yao Langjun complained,
"Hey, who likes to eat the cakes eaten by these little dolls, if it weren’t for Empress Chang’e who was not good at cooking, she would only make this stuff for her husband to eat. We suffer from this every year, Yaolang, tell me Shall we discuss with the calendar teacher? It would be nice to change the traditional customs a little..."
Hearing this, Yaolangjun, who is an ordinary rabbit, naturally cannot open his three-petal mouth to clarify his family god, because after all, he is not the one who can make medicine in the moon palace, so No matter how softly the Mid-Autumn Monarch coaxed him to eat some mooncakes, he willlessly grouped into a ball of white **** and ignored it. Seeing this situation, the mid-autumn monarch who was famous for his temper was naturally unable to help him, so he could only carry his hands on his back. After a long sigh, he took a **** and honestly loosened the soil and weeded the carrot field of his Yaolangjun.
Different from other calendar gods, compared with nap and chattering all day long, the hobby of the Mid-Autumn Festival is more peculiar. There is a small farmland in his calendar. Except for the carrots grown by the doctor, most So he planted all kinds of fruits and vegetables he likes.
The time in the calendar paper is controlled by the calendar **** himself. The Mid-Autumn Festival often planted in the ground that day and can eat the food he wants to eat the next day, and just like that, today my daughter is red with potato stew, tomorrow is green bamboo leaves Served with cold green beans and raised his own silly mouth, one day during the Mid-Autumn Festival, when Jun was sipping his private wine, he suddenly felt that his mouth became boring.
"This sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed product is sweet and has an aftertaste. I should have some snacks with me. Alas, let me see if the youth group that Xiao Qingming gave me is still there. That taste is pretty good... …"
Missingly got up to look for the Qingtuan snacks given to him during the Spring Festival Ching Ming Festival, but I found nothing but the annoying moon cakes in the cabinet. Sadness began to appear on his gentle and white face, and when he was at a loss, he unexpectedly found two rice dumplings that he didn’t know how long they had left there. After thinking about it for a long time, the Mid-Autumn Festival Reluctantly remembered that this was given to him by the Dragon Boat Festival during a certain Dragon Boat Festival.
Speaking of the Dragon Boat Festival, in fact, he and the Mid-Autumn Festival are old acquaintances. After all, they are traditional Chinese festivals. It's just that the Dragon Boat Festival is simple and simple, and he is very courteous, and he seldom makes any overriding and rude behavior in front of others.
Like this zongzi, at the time, the Dragon Boat Festival had a solemn expression, and he went to the door one by one to present to every traditional festival calendar god, and for things like festivals, the Mid-Autumn Festival has always been given when you can think of it. No delivery, so when I saw these two rice dumplings, the Mid-Autumn Festival immediately picked them up as if they had seen a savior.
The two triangular rice dumplings with reed leaves tied with twine appear just right when they are placed in a steamer. I rarely eat rice dumplings during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but I feel comfortable when I smell the fragrance of rice gradually emerging from the steamer. He guessed in his mind what kind of stuffing it was. After all, whether it was a slightly sweet bean paste or a bit of your bacon, it seemed that they didn’t match well with this sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing, and he waited a little bit. For a moment, I took out the two steamed rice dumplings and inserted them on the chopsticks and carefully peeled off the rice dumpling leaves. The Mid-Autumn Jun first frowned and took a bite tentatively, then his eyes changed for a while before he couldn't help but laugh helplessly. Up.
Sure enough, the old-fashioned Dragon Boat Festival Lord still doesn’t know how to work, even if it’s making zongzi, he can’t think of anything else to put, he just honestly makes this oldest and most unpretentious glutinous rice dumpling, but he can’t even make the Mid-Autumn Festival. Don’t admit it, even if it’s rice dumplings, this is also the most delicious rice dumplings in the world, because it is not only the taste of traditional food itself, but also the respect and sorrow for the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival. .
Zongzi was originally thrown into the river to prevent the fish and shrimp from eating the body of Mr. Qu Yuan. Because Mr. Qu Yuan has no descendants, the people worship him every year to avoid starvation after his death. For the common people in the past, grains are precious things, not to mention things like meat and nuts, but in the long historical development of China, many places have always retained this tradition, and this is actually A kind of memorial to the ancestors, a kind of beautiful cultural heritage.
"Dragon Boat Festival? Mr. Dragon Boat Festival? That nerd..."
Looking at the glutinous rice dumpling on his chopsticks, the Mid-Autumn Jun shook his head and muttered a few words on his own. After a while, he didn't realize it but he made a smile. He hasn't seen each other for many years. , He almost forgot that **** who always couldn't make fun of him, but always treated everyone patiently, but others had forgotten, but he could not forget that he was drunk during the festival one year and finally ran to the Dragon Boat Festival The nonsense on the calendar, and that night, it seemed that he had a bad temper, but he had a very kind-hearted Dragon Boat Festival. Just like that, he took a book of poems and was drunk on the Mid-Autumn Festival, and read him a poem that was more beautiful than moonlight. .
"Car Yaoyao, Ma Lili."
"Oh, after... and after..."
"Jun travels east to east, east to east, and An Defen flies to the west wind."
"En...en, then...and then! Read! Read on!"
"Uh, Mr. Mid-Autumn Festival, your rabbit fell into the wine tank and drowned..."
Mid-Autumn Festival: "…………"
……
"Who is here?"
Originally, I was using my free time to organize paintings and calligraphy at home. The Dragon Boat Festival Jun is dressed in gray clothes and long hair, and his solemn face is not easy to get close to him. Many juniors like Xiaonian are scared when they see him. It’s not because of any character issues with the Dragon Boat Festival, but the fact that he can’t memorize poems and has to touch the palm of his hand is a bit scary for the child, but when he hears the swaying of bamboo bells from outside his calendar Still patiently walked out slowly, and when he saw a thin shadow dressed in white standing outside his calendar, holding a well-behaved white rabbit in his arms, he was a calm character like the Dragon Boat Festival. , And changed his look somewhat surprised.
"Mr. Mid-Autumn Festival, what's the matter?"
A solemn salute was given during the speech. The Mid-Autumn Festival heard the words and put the Yaolangjun in his arms into his sleeve. As soon as he raised his leg, he saw the old-fashioned appearance of Dragon Boat Festival, and couldn't help but laugh a little at the moment. Aloud, seeing his face looking puzzled at the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival squinted his eyes, thinking about it, it’s still rare to be warm, and he spoke very politely,
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I am here to give a gift to the Dragon Boat Festival."
As he said, he handed a red lacquered snack box wrapped in fine silk. The Dragon Boat Festival hurriedly took it with both hands. When he raised his eyes, he found that the Mid-Autumn Festival was looking at him with the same look just now. Compared with such focused and weird eyes, the place that Dragon Boat Lord pays attention is obviously elsewhere, because since the beginning, his eyes have been falling on the Mid-Autumn Festival face somewhere, and he can't move his eyes.
He and the Mid-Autumn Festival seldom communicate with each other for many months. Except for the festival gift he delivers on time every year, the only contact between them was the drunkenness of the Mid-Autumn Festival many years ago, which was the first time in the Dragon Boat Festival. I have been so close to people once, but in the end, it was not the poems he had memorized seriously, but the drunk who disturbed him all night, and the Mid-Autumn Festival of that night was also It looks the same now, with a white body and a soft soft fur collar around his neck that is chilling. It is obviously a gentle and handsome adult man, but when he laughs, he accidentally reveals two of them. The immature rabbit teeth look like a rabbit with white hair and pink eyes.
"Thank you."
Forcing myself to maintain etiquette to thank the Mid-Autumn Festival, but when watching the white shadow leave, the heart of the Dragon Boat Festival will inevitably be a little lost. Those who are so oblivious must be a whim this year. I have to wait until he arrives. I’m afraid I’ll have to wait another hundred and eighty years. But when he returned to his calendar with the snack box on the Dragon Boat Festival and opened the lid of the wooden box with a little complicated emotion, he Seeing what was inside, he was stunned.
As far as I can see, two mooncakes wrapped in oil paper are placed in the center of the box, and there is a jug of sweet-scented osmanthus on the side, which looks pleasing to the eye, except for the one in the center. The Taohua letter raft still made the Dragon Boat Festival look inexplicable, and after he unfolded the letter paper, he saw a line of delicate small print in the letter leaping on the paper during the Dragon Boat Festival, and after a long time, the Dragon Boat Festival lowered his head and slowly aroused. Corners of the mouth.
[Dragon Boat Festival...that year on the Mid-Autumn Festival, you were not the only one who was tempted. 】
Car Yaoyao, Ma Lili.
Jun travels east to east and east to east, and An Defen flies to the west wind.
May I be like a star like a moon, bright and bright every night.
The moon is temporarily dark and the stars are always bright.
Remember to wait for the month-to-month recovery, and the three to five will be surplus.
