The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, the Autumn Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the August Festival, the August Meeting, the Moon Chasing Festival, the Moon Festival, the Moon Worship Festival, the Daughter's Festival or the Reunion Festival, is on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar; Because it coincides with the halfway of the three autumns, it has this name.

Every festival, there will be a grand market and performance in Montenegro Town, the previous Dragon Boat Festival is, because Yang Li said that the fifteenth day will be out of the stall, so in addition to the spring and autumn a few small stay at home, the adults in the family are pushing the cool skin stall to the market to set up stalls.

On the evening of August 14, Yang Li had already mixed out the moon cake filling he had bought, and he planned to come back at noon tomorrow to make it, and the brown sugar and peanut filling were even more sweet and tempting.

When I looked at it in the spring and autumn, I thought that I would make it myself, and it would be too late for the Yang Li family to come back tomorrow, don't forget, they will give gifts to the people of the same clan after they finish it, and the etiquette of every household in ancient times was also very important.

So Chunqiu stretched out his hand to take over the work of making moon cakes, at first Yang Li didn't agree much, not to mention anything else, just said the age of Spring and Autumn, Yang Li was not at ease, this is different from his own research and eating, moon cakes are also very particular. But who is Chunqiu? After seeing Yang Li's reluctant expression, he didn't directly stretch out his hand to refute, but took a roundabout way, saying that the head was the Tao, what kind of grandma are you too busy, and what are you too tired, after successfully seeing Yang Li's expression loosen, Chunqiu also deliberately showed Yang Li the small moon cakes he made, which successfully touched Yang Li's heart.

Yang Li tasted it, nodded with satisfaction, and then took advantage of Chunqiu's thoughts, finished eating the whole moon cake, and instructed Yang Chunni on the side to help roll the skin at that time.

Before dawn the next day, Yang Li took the Yang family to drive the ox cart away, and when Chunqiu woke up, there was no figure beside him.

Chunqiu didn't care, he directly lifted the quilt covering his body, reached out and picked up the clothes on the side and put them on his body, then put on his shoes and washed his face, and after successfully seeing the refreshing and refreshing self-cleaning in the mirror, he was satisfied to push open the door and walked out, feeling the hot light above his head, Chunqiu directly reached out and put it in front of his eyes to block it, and after his eyes successfully adapted, Chunqiu put down his palms, crossed his hands on his waist, stood at the door and squinted his eyes to look back and forth in the yard, and found that he was looking for a target and went straight to the past, "Sister, what are you doing?"

"Eh, the third sister is here?" Yang Chunni was feeding the chicks she bought before, when she heard the sound of Spring and Autumn in her ears, she turned back and said.

Looking at the third sister who ran over with a smoke, Chunni smiled, looked down at Chunqiu who was standing beside her, pointed to the fluttering chicks not far away, and said with a smile, "Just fed the chicks in our house, third sister, take a look, these chickens have grown small wings, not only can run, but also fly, it is estimated that they will be able to move to our chicken rack in a month."

"Well, the chicken racks in our yard are empty, we should put them in and add them" Chunqiu glanced at the chicken racks with only five hens left, uh... When she first arrived, it was at least a double digit.

"That's not it, it's a lot better before, but our chickens have been running out of numbers lately" Yang Chunni nodded, and then asked, "Third sister, what are you looking for me?" Oops, are you going to make mooncakes? Chunni patted her thigh, thought about Yang Li's explanation last night, and it became clear.

"That's right, it's right to make moon cakes now, by the way, what about the second sister?" Chunhua began to look for Chunhua everywhere as she spoke, but there was no one in the yard, "I still want the second sister to help light the fire"

"Hua'er is lying on her stomach in the house, she hasn't eaten this morning, and she is hungry, so I'm going to call her," Chunni finished speaking, and raised her legs to go to the West House.

"Eh, big sister, then I'll go to the small kitchen first" Chunqiu shouted at Chunhua's back.

"Eh, let's go," Chunni replied, and walked back...

Chunqiu glanced at it, turned his head and ran towards the small kitchen.

Originally, the filling for the moon cake was provided by Yang Lee's, a filling with brown sugar and peanuts. However, Chunqiu was a little dissatisfied, so he deliberately took out some white sesame seeds from the warehouse, and prepared to make a filling with brown sugar, and put some five kernels in Chunqiu to make the mooncakes taste more fragrant.

In the past, white sesame seeds were used in the sesame paste in the cold skin, and for convenience, Yang Li directly gave the key to the warehouse for Chunqiu and Qiu.

The mooncakes eaten by farmers are generally filled at home, and the white flour is used to make the skin at home. In order to make the moon cakes look more beautiful, Chunqiu also deliberately asked her father to make a few flower-like molds while there was a gap, which is the kind of wreath that is surrounded.

Spring and Autumn made two kinds of fillings, one is the brown sugar peanuts made by Yang Li in advance, which is kept for gifts and relatives, and the other is the brown sugar sesame five kernels made by Spring and Autumn himself, which is kept for the family to eat, of course, Spring and Autumn also wanted to make pear moon cakes on a whim, but the white pear at home was too watery and not very easy to get, so Spring and Autumn could not, so I had to give up.

When the two sisters Chunni and Chunhua came in, Chunqiu was stirring the sesame seeds in the wok, and the smell of the fragrance filled the whole room, Chunhua felt even more hungry, and sniffed hard and asked Chunqiu, "Third sister, what is this, why does it smell so good?"

Chunqiu raised his head and explained with a smile, "Second sister, this is sesame seeds, fried and five kernels are the best when they are put in moon cakes."

"Really, really? Then I'll try it for a while, I didn't eat in the morning, I'm hungry" Hearing Chunqiu's words, Chunhua suddenly rushed out from Chunni's side, and then squeezed to Chunqiu's side, looking at Chunqiu with hot eyes... The pot of sesame seeds in front of me.

"Okay, don't look at it, hurry up and burn the fire, don't you eat it casually when it's ripe for a while" Chun Qiu didn't speak yet, Chun Ni couldn't stand it standing aside, looking at her sister's greedy face, why did she look so embarrassed!

After Chunqiu heard Chunni's words, he also met on the side, "Yes, second sister, work hard, when you eat after work, our family has a lot of noodles, you see" Chunqiu pointed to the two large pots of fillings on the side, "These are all used to wrap moon cakes, it must be enough to eat" Chunqiu swore with a swear face.

"Guarantee to complete the task" Chunhua assured Chunqiu and Chunhua with a serious face, startled the two of them, and then jumped behind the stove with a smile, squatted down and began to add firewood.

"Third sister, the noodles are ready, I'll roll the skin for you" Chunni stood behind the board, rolled up her sleeves, took out the dough and kneaded it, and then rolled the gnocchi into a small Jizi, and then picked up the rolling pin on the side and rolled up the dough.

"Eldest sister, my sesame seeds are about to come out of the pot, just cook them directly when the time comes" Chunqiu glanced at the sesame seeds that had been mushy, and calculated the time in his heart.

The white dough was rolled into a thin little round cake, Chunni moved her fingers and flew apart, after brushing a few times, a bunch of round small dough appeared on the board, Chunqiu sighed in her heart after seeing it, it was worthy of being cultivated by her eldest aunt.

Her sister is really a good worker.

Spring and Autumn has put the sesame seeds in the basin on the side, and the brown sugar and the five kernels are reconciled. Reached out and took the dough on the side, dug a spoonful of the brown sugar peanuts that he had made before with a copper spoon and put it in, closed the skin and twisted it vigorously, and patted it with his hand in the mold that he put on the side. When the mold was taken down, a flower-shaped moon cake appeared in front of Chunqiu's eyes.

Chunqiu squinted and smiled when he saw it, pinched the second one, and continued to shoot after pinching, and waited until the amount of one pot was enough, Chunqiu put down the mold in his hand and pasted the moon cakes one by one on the side of the pot.

The fire under the stove was vigorous, and white smoke came out of the mooncakes attached to the wall. The burnt smell of white noodles came out of the pot, Chunhua pulled her neck while burning the fire and secretly looked at it, and lowered her head from time to time to swallow her saliva. It's not good yet."

Chunhua was a little stunned when she heard Chunqiu's words, and then her face suddenly swollen red, and she was a little embarrassed, only to see Chunhua weakly defend and say, "I'm just curious, curious."

Spring and Autumn looks like I understand you, if her second sister can not stare at the moon cakes in the pot when she speaks, it will be more convincing, her second sister will always be so cute in terms of eating.

"Third sister. Leave her alone, it'll be fine in a while," Yang Chunni turned around and said to Chunqiu.

Chunqiu smiled and nodded, and then turned over the moon cakes in the pot with a shovel, and it didn't take long for Chunqiu to pick up the moon cakes with a shovel when both sides were browned, and smelled the smell, Chunqiu nodded, this is cooked.

Chunqiu picked out a moon cake with a better quality, picked it up and blew it before handing it to Chunhua, who was watching with a blank eye, blinked and said, "Here you go, second sister"

Chunhua smiled and took it, the moon cake was still too hot just out of the pot, Chunhua didn't hold it at once, and Chunqiu found that the moon cake was like an acrobat in Chunhua's hand. Spring and Autumn were a little frightened, for fear that her second sister would accidentally fall to the ground.

After Chunhua was finally able to hold it, she took a big bite of the moon cake and deflated, Chunqiu looked at the second sister who was finally hot and inhaled again and again, and didn't forget to say, "It's so late... It's delicious", silently raised her hand to cover her eyes, she didn't have the face to look.

Chunqiu twitched the corners of her mouth, with a complicated expression, "Second sister, you eat slowly, there are still a lot of them, no one grabs them" She really understands why her second sister looks like a fight every time she eats?

Chunhua didn't look up, she was now not only full of moon cakes in her heart, but also moon cakes in her mouth, and she couldn't say anything when she was blocked, so she could only nod fiercely.

Spring and Autumn silently scooped a bowl of water and put it next to Chunhua, and then branded moon cakes, just said that it was a gift, the consumption of moon cakes was a lot, Spring and Autumn roughly calculated yesterday, even if it is a pack of moon cakes per family, they have about ten packs of this vein, not to mention the patriarch's vein, which is even more troublesome.

After all the mooncakes were baked and served, Chunqiu took a sesame filling and handed it to Chunni, and took one himself. As for her second sister, there is no need to give it at all, people can take it themselves, from the time the fire is burned to the end of the matter, her second sister has eaten the third.

"Well, the third sister's mooncakes are so delicious" Yang Chunni took a bite of the sesame mooncakes, and the fragrance of sesame seeds instantly overflowed her mouth.

"In this way, when Grandma and they come back, they can just pick it up and eat it" Chunqiu also took a bite, very satisfied with the filling he made.

Not long after the Spring and Autumn Couple finished their work, Yang Li and the others thanked the ox cart for coming back. Chunqiu looked at the ox cart parked in the yard, and looked up at the sun, it was not yet noon. Her milk came back really early.

Yang Li beckoned the children who were waiting to come and unload the car, and a few people ran over to look at the pastries, sweets, pork, vegetables, and even snails on the ox cart, and everyone's faces were happy. It's also very enthusiastic.

"Boss, you go up the mountain in a while to see what game is in the trap and catch it, and stew it at night to eat" Yang Li thought that the chickens at home were not enough and could not be killed, so he thought of the mountain.

"Eh, mother, I'll go over and have a look" Yang Weimin finished speaking, picked up the back basket on the side and left.

Yang Li glanced at it and retracted his gaze, and said to the Gu family and the Yuan family, "The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, the pork and vegetables here are all taken down, and they are ready to eat for a while, and the lunch should be more hearty."

"Eh, mother, I know" Gu Shi unloaded the goods, with a smile on his face, the income of the stall today is also unusually good, and they can close the stall so early because it sells quickly.

"Mother, what should I do with the rest of these snails? My sister-in-law and I won't get it," Yuan Shi carried a bucket of snails that were said to be very expensive, and looked at Yang Li as if asking for help.

"You put it there first," Yang Li finished speaking, and shouted to Chunqiu, who was holding candy on the side, "Good granddaughter, will you get this snail?" ”

Chunqiu nodded in response after hearing this.

When Yang Li saw it, he hurriedly put the bucket beside Chunqiu, patted Chunqiu on the shoulder and said, "Good granddaughter, grandma, I'll give it to you, wait for our family to enjoy the moon and eat together in the evening."

"Eh, okay" Chunqiu looked at the white and big snails in the bucket, and thought to himself whether it was better to steam or spicy.

"By the way, good granddaughter, are the mooncakes ready? It's time to send it to someone else's house" Yang Li didn't forget to get down to business, and immediately talked about moon cakes after saying Tianluo.

"It's all in the kitchen," Chunqiu said, pointing to the kitchen.

"That's okay, grandma will take the paper and wrap them, and the good granddaughter will go play" Yang Li touched Chunqiu's little head, and walked to the small kitchen with his little feet.

Yang Lee bought a dozen oiled papers. It was prepared for wrapping moon cakes, according to the calculation of one pack for every five, one dozen for every ten, Yang Li wrapped twenty packs, looking at the moon cakes like a hill in front of him, Yang Li called all the children except Yang Chunni, including her precious Yang Chunjun and Yang Chunming.

Yang Chunjun and Yang Chunming are scholars, and they don't have to do any work at home, just like the Yang family is so busy today, and both of them didn't come out of the study, it's not that they don't want to help, but the atmosphere of ancient society is like this.

Shinong industry and commerce, everywhere it goes.

"Brother Jun'er, you take these to your grandfather's second grandfather's house, and don't forget your uncles and aunts" Yang Li's side just finished telling Yang Chunjun, and then instructed Yang Chunming on the side, "Brother Ming'er, you take these and send them to Grandpa Yang's house, and you Yang Eruncle will also send some to the family, do you know?" "Sun Er understands" Yang Chunming carried the basket.

"Let's go, let's go together" Yang Li waved his hand and let the two of them leave.

"Qiu'er, Huzi, you two take these three bags to your third grandfather's house, as well as flowers. Little Stone, take these four bags to your seventh grandfather's house, go and go back quickly, there will be dinner at home soon..."

Spring and Autumn can be said to be familiar with this kind of thing, and when she went out, she didn't ask Huzi to follow, and she turned a few corners along the avenue of Yangjia Village alone to the third grandfather's house she was going to.

The door was opened by the daughter-in-law of her third grandfather's eldest son, Lin, Chunqiu always called her Aunt Lin, and after sending the mooncakes in her hand, she successfully received a small half basket of green edamame sent by Aunt Lin.

"Thank you, Aunt Lin," Chunqiu said with a smile as he carried the basket.

"Hey, what are you doing so politely, why are you so polite, you have time to come to Aunt Lin's house to play, Liu'er has been talking about you for the past two days, she misses you" Lin smiled.

"Really? I also want Sister Liu'er, when I have time, I will definitely come to play with Sister Liu'er, Aunt Lin, Qiu'er will go first" Chunqiu opened his eyes and sold cuteness to Lin.

"Of course" Lin reached out and pinched Chunqiu's little face, and said with a smile, "Go back, go slowly"

"Eh, Aunt Lin go back" Chunqiu beckoned to the Lin family, and then turned to leave.

Lin stood at the door and waited for the spring and autumn to come, and then closed the door...
