No matter how delicious something is, you will get tired of eating more than a dozen in a row. Mooncakes are no exception, even if each one has a different taste.
Lin You applauded: "The last one, come on Xiao Xiao!"
Xiao Xiao bit the moon cake and looked at her silently: "..."
Lin You's conscience didn't hurt at all, and she even wanted to laugh a little: "When I made it yesterday, I told you not to do too much, or you won't be able to finish it."
In the end, the two became obsessed with making all kinds of fillings, and unknowingly used up all the flour. Fortunately, the rice in the field was about to be harvested. Of course, now Lin You would not admit that she was also responsible.
Xiao Xiao lowered her eyelashes, her expression looked a little aggrieved, like a silent coquettish.
Lin You couldn't bear this move, she surrendered within ten seconds after resisting, and stretched out her hand helplessly: "Okay, give me a little... half."
Xiao Xiao turned his head to avoid her hand, but did not show a strong will to refuse, and raised his eyelids to look sideways at her.
Lin You understood. She was speechless: "... where did you see it?"
Girlfriends who are too enthusiastic are also a sweet annoyance. Lin You leaned over and bit off half of the mooncake that Xiao Xiao was holding in her mouth. The distance between the tips of her noses touched her, her icy blue eyes stared at her for a moment, her eyelashes were long and dense like falling snow, and the clear irises reflected her. The light came out, and there was her approaching face inside.
Lin You looked away unnaturally, not looking at Xiao Xiao's gaze.
… a slimy feeling.
This move is no different from hugging and kissing in front of the crowd on the street, she thought so, but unexpectedly she didn't feel any resistance, except for a little embarrassment in her heart, it was like a fluttering autumn leaf falling on the water surface, showing a shallow ripple.
Maybe it was some new type of zombie virus that her powers couldn't resist, and it burned a part of her sanity.
Fortunately, the mooncake was not big... It was filled with purslane, Lin You bit into it, her face twisted slightly. What were they thinking when they wrapped the mooncake stuffing? No wonder Xiao Xiao ate so painfully.
Lin You pressed down on Xiao Xiao, who was still in the mood to lean over. After chewing a few times, she quickly swallowed the purslane mooncake full of whimsy. She couldn't stand the taste: "I'm going to soak two cups of sugar water."
Xiao Xiao: "..." Is it not that bad
The Zombie King, who was really not very picky, touched the face that was pushed away, lost in thought.
Lin You quickly made the syrup and came back, and Xiao Xiao followed suit.
Lin You said: "In order to compensate for the suffering of two meals in the morning and lunch, let's have something good at night. What do you want to eat?"
Xiao Xiao motioned her to look at the several fresh meat mooncakes piled up on the plate on the table.
Lin You: "Well, I have plans."
After all, the Mid-Autumn Festival has a symbolic meaning. She said to live it properly. When distributing the mooncakes, she still distributed them to every member of the family... Although Zhaocai showed a disgusted expression while eating, she rubbed her hard .
Then Lin You thought of the raccoon dog, which always came all the way to deliver fruit, and this time they just happened to find it to play with. Since the raccoons were to be given away, it seemed unreasonable to leave Xiaoqing and Xiaobai behind.
"You can also check on the way to see if there are any ingredients, so if you want to eat, you can think about it now." Lin You, who decided to visit the friend of the mutant creature just like this, said.
Xiao Xiao was very casual: "Grapefruit, anything is delicious."
Lin You: "Then fried bitter gourd with shepherd's purse?"
Xiao Xiao: "..."
Don't like it so much? Obviously even that kind of moon cake can be eaten. Seeing Xiao Xiao pursing her lips silently and nodding her head reluctantly, Lin You wanted to laugh: "Okay, I'm just kidding. Now that the bitter melon is old, how can you fry it and eat it?"
Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief visibly.
They spent a while in the house, and after the time of laziness after dinner, they went out to visit friends with fresh meat mooncakes wrapped by Linyou.
After a few days of not seeing each other, the raccoon dogs in the forest turned into oversized ones again. Seeing them coming, his black eyes were bright, and he let out a cry of joy, shaking the ground, and falling a green and yellow leaf.
Jin Bao landed slowly, and Lin You jumped directly onto the broad back of the raccoon dog.
Maybe it's because it's big and round, so she sank directly into the fluff, and couldn't even touch the bones, it was all soft flesh. Xiao Xiao fell to her side and picked up the dead branches and leaves from the raccoon's back.
I don't know what she and the raccoon communicated in their minds, but the raccoon barked twice and tried to turn around.
Lin You touched it twice and had to get off her back to feed it the mooncake first.
The moon cakes that are not as big as a palm may be gone without even tasting the taste when they are delivered to the mouth of a super-large raccoon dog. The raccoon dog tilted his head in bewilderment, thought for a moment, and happily made himself smaller before begging for food.
Lin You played with it for a while, and was given a handful of glowing petals and pebbles before leaving. She was used to receiving weird gifts from it, so she specially brought a small cloth bag with her before she came, and it came in handy as expected.
"It doesn't feel like visiting friends, but like caring for left-behind children..." In the end, the raccoon dog watched them fly out of the forest. The moist eyes made Lin You look back when she was far away.
Xiao Xiao asked: "Youzi, do you like it very much?"
Lin You: "Are you okay? It just feels silly and occasionally a little worried..."
Xiao Xiao thought of the big cat at home who was pampered to the roof, and deeply felt the threat of fluffy creatures: "If Yuzu wants to raise..."
Having said that, there was reluctance in the words. Lin You was helpless: "Don't force it, I think it's quite comfortable living in the forest. And..."
The wind blowing past them picked up Xiao Xiao's hair, itching it on his face.
Lin You hugged Xiao Xiao's waist tightly, and said with a smile in her voice, "It's enough for me to raise Xiao Xiao."
Jin Bao suddenly braked in the air.
"Eh?" Lin You knocked on Xiao Xiao's body, raised her head in doubt, this place is still far away from the giant tree, "What's wrong?"
"fine."
Xiao Xiao in front crossed one leg and turned to sit sideways, Lin You hurriedly stopped her: "Wait a minute, don't move around! Isn't this dangerous?" There are no safety measures in the air, what should I do if I fall
However, Xiao Xiao insisted on turning around, holding Lin You's arm... and placed a light kiss on her lips.
Lin You subconsciously closed her eyes. But it was just a superficial touch. When she opened her eyes again, Xiao Xiao showed a faint smile in front of her eyes: "It's just that I am very happy and want to do this."
"..."
Lin You was stunned, and after realizing it, she gently pushed her: "Just, because of this...turn around and sit down."
Xiao Xiao was obedient this time. Jinbao was activated again, and Lin You let out a breath slowly. She didn't know if it was due to the sense of instability at high altitude, but she only felt that this light kiss was particularly exciting.
That smile couldn't go away, Lin You wrapped her arms around Xiao Xiao's waist, pressed her forehead against her back, sighed, and couldn't help smiling: "...I'm very happy too."
Never felt like this before.
As long as we stay together, simply look at each other, and have simple conversations, we can get a sense of happiness from the bottom of our hearts. There are too many, so that the heart is full and cracked, and there is an illusion of sweet pain. If the control is not good, it may accidentally overflow from the eyes.
really happy...
Lin You hugged Xiao Xiao tightly, feeling the overlapping body temperature difference, and gently closed her eyes.
Jin Bao stopped in the shade of a giant tree.
"Hey, isn't Xiaoqing here?" Stepping on the tree trunk, Lin You saw a bird's nest built on a branch not far away. Xiaobai nestled in it alone, and greeted them with two "quacks", looking a little helpless. Spirit.
Usually, these two birds would stick together whenever they had free time, and Meng Bulijiao, Meng Bulijiao, suddenly appeared alone, and Lin You still felt a little unaccustomed to it.
Xiao Xiao said: "It should have gone out to look for food."
Lin You was surprised: "Didn't they all go together before? What's wrong with Xiaobai, is he sick?"
Xiao Xiao: "It wants to hatch eggs."
"..."
Lin You was shocked: "Eh?! When did the hatching happen?? I haven't heard of it at all?"
"Huh?" Xiaobai looked at her blankly.
Xiao Xiao also looked at her blankly, "You didn't ask" was definitely written on her face.
… Forget it, it doesn't matter. Lin You looked at the place covered under Xiaobai's wings, and still had a feeling of disbelief: "So, they are going to have cubs soon?"
Xiao Xiao said: "Yes. It seems that the shell is about to break out now."
"immediately?"
Lin You stared at the bird's nest, and Xiaobai's wings moved, revealing a row of eggs shaking slightly against her. The eggshells were as white and smooth as jade, but there were already many cracks on them, and there were subtle movements coming from inside, like baby birds Trying to peck at the shell.
This was the first time she watched the chicks break their shells up close, and she unconsciously became nervous.
Finally, the most severely damaged egg on the outermost side shook heavily, the upper eggshell was pushed off, and a small wet and smooth head came out, and it chirped twice.
The tender cry echoed in the swaying tree shadows, and Xiaobai responded lovingly: "Gah—"
"Hmm..." Lin You glanced at Xiaobai with gorgeous and smooth feathers, and then at the dark pink ball of flesh struggling to get out of the shell, "It's kind of ugly."
Xiao Xiao was more gentle: "It's like this when it was born. It has better aptitude than its parents."
"Is it the same for mutant creatures?" Lin You thought of the children in the previous base.
Children with the blood of supernatural beings are born stronger, and their supernatural powers are awakened earlier. For example, Du Anan, she awakened the ability to manipulate sound waves when she was two years old, but because she couldn't control it well at a young age, she could easily hurt herself. Before she learned to control her power, she had to carefully limit her use.
... how is she doing now
Thinking of the missing mother and daughter of the Du family, Lin You was slightly distracted.
"..." Xiao Xiao noticed her expression and gently took her hand.
Lin You came back to her senses and smiled at Xiao Xiao: "...it's okay."
It's useless to worry here, even if something unexpected happens, she can only say that there is no way, she is used to it. Lin You waved away the sudden sentimentality, and held Xiao Xiao's hand instead.
Here they watched a few chicks successfully break out of their shells, squeeze and chirp in the nest. When Xiaoqing came back, it was almost time for dinner, Lin You distributed mooncakes to the two adult birds, and went home with Xiao Xiao.
Jin Bao seemed to want to go out for a swim after a long time, so he let them down by the river in front of his house and plunged into the river.
Lin You and Xiao Xiao walked home holding hands: "What's for dinner, Xiao Xiao, have you figured it out yet?"
"Well… "
They exchanged trivial chats, Lin You childishly kicked the stones on the walk, raised her head, saw a figure standing at the gate of the courtyard from a distance, and stopped immediately.
