Golden Fishing Village

Ao Xiaoniu put down the moon cake, his dark face was red, like fried donkey shit eggs.

He quietly asked Ao Muyang: "Uncle Yang, did I come at the wrong time?"

Ao Muyang was too lazy to answer him. This naughty kid appeared at an unexpected time.

Ao Xiaoniu showed a worried expression.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang said: "Don't be afraid, it's okay. Teacher Lu and I just had a friendly hug. You didn't ruin anything for us."

Ao Xiaoniu continued to worry: "No, Uncle Yang, am I afraid that I will get a needle eye? I saw you and Teacher Lu hugging each other like that, will I get a needle eye?"

Ao Muyang was so angry that he wanted to kick him.

He patted Ao Xiaoniu on the shoulder and said seriously: "Don't worry, you won't get needle holes, you will get hemorrhoids."

Ao Xiaoniu was shocked: "Why?"

Ao Muyang said: "Ten men have nine hemorrhoids. I can tell that you are a young man with hemorrhoids."

Ao Xiaoniu couldn't understand these words and was confused and worried.

Lu Zhizi heard this and smiled: "Don't scare him. The calf is timid and he is most afraid of getting sick."

"It's not that I'm timid. I'm not afraid of ghosts or snakes. I'm afraid of getting sick because it costs money and my mother is also very scared." Ao Xiaoniu explained.

Lu Zhizi was stunned for a moment, then smiled sweetly: "Good boy, of course you won't get sick."

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "It's just a joke. What's this all about? By the way, what did you just say? When you first entered?"

Lu Zhizi patted his forehead and said: "I forgot about this, hurry up, hurry up, come with me to put out the fire. On the way, I met a few children playing with fire at the intersection. I told them to criticize them, and they ran away. , the fire is still burning."

Ao Muyang asked: "What are you playing with fire? Are you putting some tiles together and burning them with wood?"

Lu Zhizi thought for a while and said, "It seems so. Did you see it?"

Ao Muyang had a cold sweat on his face: "Miss, that is our Hongyang tradition. This is called burning tiles. The tiles are piled up one by one to imitate the pagoda, and then wood and coal are put in to light it."

Lu Zhizi was embarrassed: "Ah? Is this a custom?"

Ao Muyang smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, our local customs originated from a legend. It is said that there used to be a water monster in the sea. It usually slept on the bottom of the sea. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, it would wake up and come out to cause great harm. people."

"Later, an eminent monk learned about this. In order to subdue the sea monster, he led his disciples and people to build a tower on the seaside. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, every household celebrated, and when the sea monster woke up, they seduced the sea monster. He wrapped it around the pagoda, then lit the wooden pagoda and burned it to death..."

Lu Zhizi said with a smile, "Then I'll go talk to them and let them continue playing."

Ao Xiaoniu interrupted: "Teacher Lu, you don't have to tell me. If the teacher is not here, they will come back and continue playing."

Ao Muyang bought his own oven and baked cakes, snacks and mooncakes. He wrapped some for Ao Xiaoniu and handed them over, saying, "Here, take them back and give your mother a taste of Uncle Yang's craftsmanship."

Ao Xiaoniu took a deep breath and shouted: "Uncle Yang must be good at craftsmanship. It smells so good. Uncle Yang, why do your mooncakes smell so good?"

Ao Muyang smiled and said: "It's not that Uncle Yang's skills are good, but because they are freshly baked. Freshly baked snacks are the most delicious. Go home and eat them quickly."

Ao Xiaoniu ran out happily carrying the bag. The general rolled his eyes and followed him.

When Ao Xiaoniu ran out, the general sped up to stop him, and then sat in front of him grandly.

Ao Xiaoniu wanted to go around, but the general moved his butt and continued to block him.

"What are you doing?" Ao Xiaoniu looked at it with wide eyes.

The general glanced at the bag in his hand with his small dark eyes, "What do I want to do? Don't you have any idea in mind?"

Ao Xiaoniu understood, but the dim sum in his hand was fragrant. He had never eaten dim sum mooncakes that smelled so fragrant since he was a child, so he was reluctant to give them to the general.

The general stopped him and refused to let him go. Ao Xiaoniu turned back and ran to Ao Muyang's house to complain. The general went up and bit his pants and held him tightly.

Ao Xiaoniu shouted: "Let go, general, bite my pants and I'll beat you to death!"

The general did not relent.

Ao Xiaoniu had no choice but to pick the smallest mooncake and hand it to the general.

The general was overjoyed, but Ao Xiaoniu was reluctant to part with it. He took back the moon cake and took a big bite.

This made the general very dissatisfied. He ate half of the moon cake in one bite!

Ao Xiaoniu acted like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water: "That's it, do you want to eat it? If not, I'll eat it myself!"

The general rolled his eyes and went up to take the mooncakes away. Ao Xiaoniu picked up the bag and ran away quickly.

Holding the mooncake in his mouth, the general went to find the head of state, bit it in half, ate half of it himself, and gave half to the head of state.

Ao Muyang made a cheese cake by himself. When the moon rose, he cut the cake and moon cakes, served the food and drinks, and sat down in the yard.

Lu Zhizi was anxious: "Why did you cut the cake? I wanted to light a candle and make a wish."

Ao Muyang smiled and said: "Keep your wish first, and I will take you to Shaowa later, where everyone can make wishes."

The weather is very good during this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. The moon hangs like a silver plate in the night sky, and its silver glow spreads over the ocean and the earth, making everything bright.

After dinner, the two of them went to the street. There were people burning tiles at every street corner. At the entrance of the village near the sea, there were the most tiles and the highest piles. The two of them went together.

When he arrived, Lu Zhizi crossed his hands under his chin, closed his eyes and began to make a wish.

The flames danced, and the red light illuminated the female teacher's skin, which was rosy. Her expression was quiet and pious.

Ao Muyang put his hands together and made a wish. This was the first time he burned tiles and made a wish after his parents disappeared in the ocean.

I hope you are well in the other world, and I will live well, he thought silently in his heart.

The Mid-Autumn Festival ended, and the autumn atmosphere became stronger.

When he got up in the morning, Ao Muyang stood outside the door and looked out. The autumn dew had not fallen yet, but there was morning fog on the sea. The light fog floated on the sea surface and floated slowly with the sea breeze.

Ao Muyang was about to go out to sea, and Ao Daguo suddenly said, "Longtou, why haven't you seen Xiucai for several days?"

Ao Mubing said, "He hasn't been in the village these days. He was not at home yesterday when we had mooncakes for the festival."

Ao Qianpan laughed and said, "Didn't he go to find his young wife? Did he stay at his young wife's house? Was he detained? Did he become a live-in son-in-law?"

Ao Daguo said, "What a joke. Can Qianyao and his wife let their son become a live-in son-in-law? Even the daughter of a high-ranking official can't do it."

"The daughter of a high-ranking official can't do it?!" Ao Qianpan was about to refute, but Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, what's there to argue about? I'll make a phone call and ask."

He called, and the ring rang for a long time. Just when he thought no one answered, the phone was connected: "Hello, Longtou."

Ao Muyang asked, "Hello, Wenchang, why haven't I seen you for several days?"

Ao Wenchang smiled bitterly, "Alas, things are not resolved yet, and things are not easy to deal with."

"What's the matter? Do you need my help?"
