Chapter 314 Wishes
Ji Qingbai looked serious and continued, "If it weren't for Mo Hua's help in the Great Black Mountain, our family might not have survived."
"Later, Ji Li was almost killed by the criminals, and it was Mo Hua who saved him."
"And Lu Diansi and Kong Sheng who died in the Black Mountain Village. Although I don't know what happened, I also know that it was Mo Hua who helped."
"Not to mention, he drew so many formations for the monster hunters. Without those formations, the weapon refining and alchemy industries could not be established, and the monster hunters would be in great danger when they went into the mountains to hunt monsters. More..."
"Because of his formations, the life of the independent cultivators in Tongxian City has become better. We can have a stable place to live, and the two children, Ji Li and Fu Lan, can get married..."
The more Ji Qingbai spoke, the more emotional he looked, and he said firmly:
"This cup of tea must be offered!"
Mo Shan evaded, "Brother Ji, Mo Hua is still young and can't bear it..."
Ji Qingbai insisted, "Although he is young, he has great achievements and can bear it."
Mo Shan wanted to refuse, but Ji Li and Fu Lan had already brought the tea to Mo Hua solemnly.
Mo Hua couldn't refuse, and took the tea awkwardly.
Ji Qingbai smiled and said:
"Mo Hua, you are the benefactor of our family. No matter what happens in the future, as long as you ask, we will do it even if it means going through fire and water."
Mo Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Uncle Ji, you are too kind."
Mo Shan also smiled bitterly with some helplessness.
Fortunately, after drinking tea, there were no more formalities. Mo Hua also breathed a sigh of relief and went to the banquet happily.
The banquet was festive and noisy, with wine and meat on the table, rich and delicious.
Mo Hua and Da Hu were three people, and Da Ping and Da Zhu were at the same table.
Several friends were lively and ate heartily.
The guests and hosts were happy until it was getting dark, and then they dispersed.
When Mo Hua was about to leave, Ji Qingbai brought Ji Li and Fu Lan to see him off in person.
Ji Qingbai was very happy and drank a lot of wine. Ji Li and Fu Lan also held hands, with smiles on their faces.
Mo Hua couldn't help thinking that it would be great if everyone could be so peaceful and beautiful all the time.
In this way, he could be happier to eat for free.
Ji Qingbai drank too much and repeated the words of thanks he had said during the day. Ji Li was a little introverted and not good at speaking, but the look he gave Mo Hua was full of gratitude.
Fu Lan gave Mo Hua a wedding box:
"This contains the 'wedding cake', which I made myself. If Mo Ge'er doesn't mind, take it back and try it."
Mo Hua smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Sister Fu!"
Fu Lan saw Mo Hua happily accept the gift and smiled happily too.
The wedding cake was beautifully packaged and heavy.
Mo Hua originally thought that this 'wedding cake' was just one of the cakes commonly used in wedding banquets, and everyone would have it, but after returning home, he found that he was the only one who had it.
Liu Ruhua said, "Wedding cakes are made by the newlyweds themselves and are given to the most distinguished guests. The process is very complicated and the ingredients are very particular. Ordinary monks may not be able to taste a wedding cake in their lifetime."
Mo Hua was surprised, "Is it so expensive?"
Liu Ruhua nodded and said, "This is the couple's intention, and it can be regarded as a blessing."
"What do you wish for?" Mo Hua was a little confused.
"I wish you a happy life and a happy marriage."
Mo Hua's face was a little red, "It's too early for me?"
Liu Ruhua couldn't help laughing, "For this kind of thing, it's better to wish early."
"Then should I eat it?" Mo Hua hesitated, "Should I put it away and hide it?"
He felt that the cake was so precious that he was reluctant to eat it, so of course it was better to keep it.
Liu Ruhua couldn't help laughing, "Of course you have to eat the cakes. This is your sister Fu Lan's gift. Don't waste it."
"Oh oh." Mo Hua nodded. Although she was reluctant, she took out a piece and tasted it. Her eyes lit up.
Delicious!
The wedding cake looked ordinary on the outside, and it was soft and sticky when you bite it. After biting it open, there were all kinds of fillings inside, and the taste was mellow and rich.
Both fragrant and sweet.
Mo Hua took a piece and handed it to her mother, "Mom, you try it too."
Liu Ruhua shook her head and smiled, "Mom has already started a family, so you don't need to eat it."
"Then I wish you and Dad a happy and harmonious life."
Liu Ruhua blushed and laughed, "You kid..."
Mo Hua handed it to her again. Liu Ruhua couldn't refuse, so she tasted a piece and nodded:
"It tastes really good. Fu Lan is really clever."
Mo Hua also nodded in agreement. This wedding cake is really delicious.
Then he looked at the big box of wedding cakes and started to think about how to distribute them.
Wedding cakes are rare, and Mo Hua also hopes that everyone can share in the joy.
"Mom has eaten it, so this piece is for Dad."
"Master Chen has been a bachelor all his life, let's give him one to see if he can find a wife..."
"Grandpa Feng probably won't find a wife, but let him have a taste too."
"Elder Yu... He already has two sons, so forget it..."
"Uncle Zhang Lan, although he looks romantic, he is also a lonely man. He is still a good person, so give him one."
"Uncle Commander Yang, he is the commander of the Taoist soldiers, and it is probably difficult for him to find a Taoist partner... And since Uncle Zhang has given one, he should also be given one, and he cannot be partial..."
"And Da Hu and the others..."
"And Mr. Zhuang..."
...
Mo Hua muttered to himself and arranged for them one by one.
Liu Ruhua couldn't help laughing.
The next day, Mo Hua walked around Tongxian City and gave out wedding cakes.
Some people simply thought the wedding cakes were delicious, some thanked Mo Hua for his blessings, some had complicated expressions, and of course some were at a loss whether to laugh or cry...
Mo Hua gave out the cakes, and finally there was still a small half left. He packed it in a wedding box and gave half to Mr. Zhuang.
"Wedding cakes?" Mr. Zhuang was a little surprised.
Mo Hua nodded, "I wish you a harmonious and happy marriage."
Mr. Zhuang was startled, and his expression changed several times.
Mo Hua observed quietly and confirmed that Mr. Zhuang's reaction was the kind of one that made him laugh and cry.
"Sir, would you like to try it?" Mo Hua said.
Mr. Zhuang hesitated, but finally did not refuse Mo Hua's kindness. He tasted a piece and nodded slightly:
"It tastes really good."
Mo Hua smiled.
Mr. Zhuang wanted to say something, but he saw the red wedding box and the word "囍" on the box from the corner of his eye. He looked a little disappointed, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
There is a story!
Mo Hua was stunned. He rarely saw Mr. Zhuang showing such an expression.
Mo Hua wanted to ask, but he was too embarrassed to ask.
Mr. Zhuang would definitely not tell if he asked.
But if he didn't ask, Mo Hua was very curious.
Mo Hua resisted his curiosity... but couldn't resist it in the end. His eyes lit up slightly and he whispered, "Sir..."
Before he asked, Mr. Zhuang knocked on his head.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't."
Mr. Zhuang's tone was not reproachful, but rather helpless.
"Oh." Mo Hua tactfully stopped asking.
After leaving the bamboo room, Mo Hua gave the other half of the wedding cake to Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi.
Bai Zisheng, who never liked cakes, also ate a piece and nodded in praise, "It's delicious."
Mo Hua gave the rest of the wedding cake to Bai Zixi.
Bai Zixi thanked him and sat under the white locust tree, eating in small bites. After a while, she asked Mo Hua in a gentle voice:
"How is this wedding cake made?"
"I don't know... it's complicated anyway."
"Can Aunt Liu make it?"
"Yes." Mo Hua nodded.
Bai Zixi's eyes lit up slightly.
"But my mother won't do it." Mo Hua said again.
Bai Zixi was startled, his eyes showing doubts, "Why?"
"Wedding cakes have special meanings, and can only be eaten by monks who get married."
Bai Zixi took another bite of the wedding cake, looked up and asked:
"Has anyone of you got married recently?"
Mo Hua thought about it and shook his head, "It seems that no one has."
Bai Zixi looked a little regretful.
She glanced at the cakes and asked again: "Have you tasted it?"
"I tasted a piece." Mo Hua said.
Eat a piece and get a little bit of joy.
Bai Zixi stretched out her fair little hand, took out a piece of cake from the box, and handed it to Mo Hua, "Let's eat together."
Mo Hua ran all day and was a little hungry, so he took the cake and ate it.
The mountain breeze blew gently, rippling a pool of water, smoothing the tender grass, and scooping up the faint fragrance of a locust tree, wandering in the mountain residence.
Bai Zisheng was lying on the grass, flipping through a book in boredom.
Mo Hua and Bai Zixi, two beautiful children, were sitting under the tree, quietly eating wedding cakes.
Snow-white locust flowers were floating above their heads, and a bright red wedding box was placed in front of them.
