But she is not a toad, she is a bullfrog.
Her name is Tangyuan. I met her in the fresh section of the supermarket, and there were many of her companions at that time. They are waiting together in the square glass sales cabinet of the supermarket to be bought home, and then, stew, fry, fry or fry.
I stood there and watched for a long time. The uncle who weighed in the fresh food section of the supermarket fished out a bullfrog from it and handed it to me. I took it. It is very docile, its skin is slippery and a little cold. It gave birth to a pair of beautiful eyes, as if there were light coming out of them. I looked at its companions, and some of them had ordinary eyes. It turned out that bullfrogs also looked different. Only her eyes are the most beautiful.
Uncle said that the slim one is male and the fat one is female. No wonder my dumplings are so beautiful.
The name Tangyuan was given by me later. I just wanted to see her a few more times and then leave, but I stood there thinking that they would become people's food soon, and I couldn't help feeling sad. And stood there for a long time.
The little fresh meat with my uncle seems to read my mind, so he said to me, "Sister, you have a good fate with it. You might as well buy it back, because it will be eaten here sooner or later." But what shall I feed it? Will it starve to death when it goes back? Small fresh meat continued: "It is hibernating now and doesn't need to be fed."
I hesitated for a while, then looked at it, thinking of buying it home and releasing it when the weather was warm.
So Tangyuan came to my house.
Because it's the Lantern Festival, it's named Tangyuan.
