Peking Opera Cat: I Became A Zi's Brother

Chapter 508 Flower Field Festival

A few days later, the morning light began to appear, and the warm sunlight gently penetrated the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting patches of mottled light and shadow in the courtyard.

"1234, 2234..."

"Oh, I've felt a lot more relaxed since I got home. If I don't exercise, I feel like all the muscles in my body will atrophy..."

"We still have to resolve the chaos as soon as possible!"

Dafei got up early as usual and stretched his muscles vigorously in the yard. His muscles rose and fell with his movements, showing his strength.

"Ha ha……"

"You got up so early and didn't even take a break. Now that you're home, you should relax..."

"A Fei, come here..."

At this time, grandma walked out of the house with a leisurely step, with a kind smile on her face, and waved to Dafei to sit next to her.

"Da Fei, grandma wants to tell you something."

Grandma sat in the rocking chair, rocking gently, and said,

"The Flower Field Festival is coming up in a few days. It's the most important festival here, a great day to celebrate the harvest."

Grandma looked into the distance, lost in memories, her eyes full of tenderness.

"During the Flower Field Festival, flowers bloom all over the mountains and fields, red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow, and interwoven with the ripe crops, the colors are like a beautiful painting."

"Families would display their own harvested grains, fruits, and vegetables and share the year's bountiful harvest with one another. Everyone gathered together, chatting and laughing, and it was a lively occasion."

"Ever since my master took me away from here, I've forgotten a lot of things except you, Grandma, but now..."

Dafei listened attentively, and the colorful and lively scene involuntarily emerged in his mind.

"I'm sure we'll be leaving soon, so why not take them for one last relaxing break!"

"I just don't know if Mingyue will come..."

He thought that he must let Bai Tang, Wu Song, Xiao Qing, Mo Zi, and the lovely Hai Piao feel the excitement and joy. It would be even better if Ming Yue was there too, so that everyone could enjoy the joy together.

……

Finally, the long-awaited Flower Field Festival is here.

In the evening, the sunset glow on the horizon is as dazzling as a burning flame, dyeing the entire sky orange-red.

Dafei brought his friends to the square. As soon as they stepped in, they were surrounded by a surging and lively atmosphere.

"Take a look, take a look..."

"Flower cakes, delicious flower cakes..."

"..."

The square was already bustling with the sounds of cats, hawking, laughter, and conversation, making it extremely lively.

"Well, this place really makes cats feel happy~"

"Yes, sister, we must come here again next year, okay?"

"Good~"

In the distant fields, various flowers and golden wheat waves sway in the wind, forming a gorgeous sea of flowers and rice. The breeze blows, bringing bursts of floral and rice fragrance, which is the unique smell of harvest.

“Oh my god!”

As soon as Bai Tang arrived at the square, he was like a small firecracker that had been lit, and he shouted excitedly:

"Wow, it's so lively! Dafei, I want to go over there and take a look!"

As he spoke, he ran towards the stalls filled with delicious food with light steps like a happy kitten.

The stalls were filled with all kinds of delicious food made with newly harvested grains. The golden corn tortillas were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, exuding an enticing aroma. The soft and glutinous rice cakes were wrapped with sweet bean filling. Take a light bite and the sweet taste instantly spread on your tongue.

"Haha, since you've come to my place, I definitely can't let you spend any money..."

Da Fei smiled and bought one for everyone. Bai Tang took the tortilla and took a big bite. His face was instantly filled with satisfaction. His cheeks bulged and he said incoherently:

"It's so delicious! This is the best taco I've ever had!"

This made everyone laugh so hard that Haipiao was also watching Baitang and laughing secretly with his hands covering his mouth.

"Hmm? What are you doing?"

Wusong was deeply attracted by the traditional competitive activities on one side of the square.

"Come on, come on, I've been preparing for a year, how could I lose to you juniors!"

"Haha, we are talented seniors, let us shine at this year's Harvest Festival!"

I saw strong Peking Opera cats competing in carrying grain bags. They bent down, held the bags tightly with both hands, shouted loudly, and carried the bags full of grain, walking briskly, with each step being firm and powerful.

“Come on, come on!”

The cheers from the surrounding audiences were endless, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Wu Song's blood boiled with excitement, his eyes flashing with eagerness, and he said to Da Fei with eagerness:

"Da Fei, I want to try it too. It sounds really interesting!"

Dafei smiled and nodded encouragingly:

"Okay, go show your strength!"

"Would you mind if I were to join you?"

Wu Song immediately joined the competition team. He took a deep breath, stood firmly on his horse, picked up the grain bag steadily, and took big strides forward.

"Cats from the Outer Sect? Of course they're welcome, but Xiaobei, don't let these things overwhelm you."

Although his shoulders were painful and his brows were tightly furrowed, he gritted his teeth and persevered. With his strength and perseverance, he achieved good results in the competition and won cheers from the audience.

"Hmph, just a little bit of wind and frost..."

His face flushed, his back soaked with sweat. When he returned to his companions, a proud smile spread across his face. Bai Tang rushed over, patted his shoulder excitedly, and said:

"Wusong, you are so awesome!"

"Wanzi, it's enough for you to know my strength. There's no need to be so high-profile!"

Xiaoqing was attracted by a group of female cats who were making flower wreaths.

"Tsk, it's not as interesting as this place!"

They are skilled and their fingers move nimbly between the petals. In a short while, exquisite wreaths are born in their hands.

"Oh my god, why are their hands so dexterous? I can only wash clothes at best..."

Xiaoqing walked forward, her eyes full of curiosity and seriousness, and followed suit to learn humbly.

"This should be like this, yes, and then like this..."

She carefully picked up the petals and imitated the movements of the female cats, trying to weave them.

"Ah, why is it like this? Oh, never mind, but it can still be seen as sugar. They won't laugh at me, right?"

At the beginning, her movements were a little clumsy and the petals kept falling off, but she did not give up. After many attempts, she finally made a beautiful wreath.

She gently put the wreath on her head, adjusted her hair, and asked her friends with a smile:

"Look, does this look good on me?"

Bai Tang nodded hurriedly, his eyes wide open, and exclaimed in admiration:

"It's so beautiful! Sister Xiaoqing looks good in anything she wears, just like a flower fairy!"

"Mmmmmmm..."

Haipiao also nodded vigorously. Although she couldn't speak, her eyes were full of recognition and envy. She also raised her thumb to express her praise for Xiaoqing.

Haipiao followed behind everyone, looking around curiously, full of curiosity about everything.

"!"

Her eyes are bright and shining, like the twinkling stars in the night sky.

When she saw the sugar figurine stall, her eyes suddenly lit up and she stopped unconsciously, staring at the crystal clear and lifelike sugar figurines.

"Haha, Hai Piao, do you want one too? I'll buy one for you!"

"Hmm (thank you)"

Dafei understood, walked to the stall and bought her a butterfly-shaped candy figure.

"Hmm~ (So sweet)"

Haipiao smiled happily, his eyes curved into crescents, and he held it carefully, licking it with his tongue from time to time. His satisfied look made the cat feel warm inside.

"Is this kind of happy day really something I can enjoy?"

Mo Zi followed behind everyone, and was a little reserved at first, with his hands placed unnaturally at his sides and a hint of alienation in his eyes.

“But this feels good too~”

But infected by this joyful atmosphere, she gradually relaxed and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

Da Fei walked up to her, with a friendly smile on his face, and said:

"Sister A Zi, just relax today and don't think about those troublesome things."

Mo Zi nodded slightly, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, a hint of warmth flashed in his eyes, and he softly responded:

"Well, thank you, Dafei."

At this time, a familiar voice came:

"Everyone is here!"

Everyone turned around and saw Senior Sister Mingyue walking towards them with a brisk pace and a smile.

She was still wearing the same neat outfit, and her eyes were gentle and kind.

Bai Tang shouted excitedly:

"Sister Mingyue, you're finally here!"

Mingyue walked among the group, greeted each cat, and said:

"I heard that today is the Flower Field Festival. It's such a lively event. I won't even exercise. I definitely can't miss this festival."

A tall stage was set up in the center of the square, where traditional opera performances were being performed.

“Oh my god—”

The actors wore colorful costumes and had exquisite makeup on their faces as they sang and danced on the stage.

Their singing voices are melodious and graceful, their movements are smooth and graceful, and every move shows their skills.

"Come on everyone, let's go take a look!"

Dafei and the others also gathered around and found a place with a good view to sit down and enjoy the view.

"Okay, one more, one more!"

The actors' wonderful performances won applause and cheers from the audience.

At this moment, they seemed to have forgotten the chaos and danger of the outside world and were enjoying this rare happy time.

Bai Tang was so fascinated by the scene that he didn't even blink, and occasionally shook his head to the rhythm.

Xiaoqing narrowed her eyes slightly, with an intoxicated look on her face;

Wu Song straightened his back, folded his hands in front of his chest, and applauded the actors' wonderful movements from time to time;

Mo Zi looked at the stage quietly, with a faint smile on her lips;

Although Haipiao didn't understand opera, she was infected by the lively atmosphere and clapped and laughed with everyone else;

Senior Sister Mingyue and Dafei exchanged their views on the performance from time to time, their faces filled with ease and joy.
