Chapter 83: Moon Cakes (Wan Chang, Ask for a Monthly Pass)
Pushing open the courtyard door, I found that everyone was there, including Brother Liu Quan and Brother Wen Hao.
Liu Quan saw that Tang Bao was back, and squinted with a smile, "Tang Bao! You bad boy, where did you go wild?! ”
Tang Bao quickly dodged Liu Quan's "magic caught", slid past Liu Quan like a loach and ran behind Wen Hao to hide.
"Brother Liu Quan! If you want to eat my mother's cakes, you have to be kind to me, or ......."
"How else?"
Wen Hao smiled lightly and looked down at Tang Bao with an angry expression, but if he really wanted to say ruthless words, he didn't dare, so he had to reply: "Otherwise...... Otherwise......"
However, Tang Bao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Otherwise, let my father clean you up!" You eat his lady's pastries and bully his baby! ”
"Poof!"
Wen Hao couldn't help laughing.
Liu Quan was also laughed at angrily.
"You stinky boy! It's not someone else's baby, it's daddy, daddy's cry is happy! I'm going to bully you today! Lest you lose your chance! ”
Saying that, Liu Quan was about to deliberately come to catch Tang Bao, Tang Bao was so frightened that he ran quickly, ran to the kitchen, hugged his mother's thigh tightly, and shouted loudly: "Mother! There are youkai! ”
Liu Quan didn't want to go in and arrest him, so he yelled outside the door, "Tang Bao, you have the ability to come out!" ”
Tang Bao hugged his mother's leg and said, "I don't!" You have the ability to come in! ”
Liu Quan couldn't, so he had to look at Tang Bao's little appearance and gritted his teeth.
Xia Mei rolled her eyes indecently, "Tang Bao! How am I going to walk if you hold my legs? Hurry up and let go! ”
Wen Xi and Yunni smiled: "This Tang Bao is really getting more and more skinny." When I first arrived, it was completely different. ”
Yun Ni glanced at Tang Bao, who had left aggrievedly, and also pursed his lips and smiled, "Yes, but, child, it's better to be lively, he was sensible before." I'm still worried! ”
Xia Mei kept wrapping the cake in her hand, and after wrapping it, she put the cake into a specially customized wooden mold and pressed it gently, and a lace-shaped moon cake was ready. There is also a "month" character printed on it.
Hearing the conversation between Wen Xi and Yunni, he wiped his sweat at the moment, and said with a smile: "I think so too." Children, it's better to make a little trouble, this one family. There is a lively child, so there is a lively appearance! ”
Yunni sat in front of the stove and lit the fire, stewed the pork ribs that Liu Quan and the others brought back, and there was boiling water in a pot for steaming cakes later.
And Wen Xi naturally helped Xia Mei make cakes together.
has been following Xia Mei for so long, just making cakes, so naturally it will be difficult for her.
After making a few, the speed in his hand was not slow, and the two of them made a half-board cake in a while.
"Oops!"
Wen Xi suddenly slapped his thigh. Exclaimed.
"What's wrong, Wen Xi?"
Xia Mei hurriedly asked, and Yun Ni also stuck her head out from behind the stove and looked at Wen Xi.
Wen Xi said with a look of regret: "Oh no, Master, I forgot to separate the different kinds......
Xia Mei was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't cry or laugh, "Then there's no way now, let's steam together!" When the time comes, whoever eats what is what. ”
Wen Xi looked helpless. "That's it."
After this episode, the three of them continued to be busy, and when they saw that there were more than fifty on the case, they said to Wen Xi: "Okay." Let's start steaming first! Wenxi, you go and bring in the cleaned steamer, let's steam this mooncake like steamed buns! ”
Wen Xi responded, turned around and went out to get the cage drawer, and Xia Mei fished out some large bamboo leaves from a wooden barrel. Set aside.
This moon cake is used for steaming, which is also unheard of, but the situation is limited, Xia Mei also tried to do it, in order to have the shape of a moon cake for the moon cake, she drove the dough very thin, even if it was steamed, it would not be particularly thick.
It's just that Xia Mei secretly smiled bitterly in her heart, and deliberately asked Brother Chen to carve the mold, I don't know if it is useful, in case it evaporates, this shape is completely gone, but what should I do!
Forget it, it's all come to this point, break the jar and break it!
After Wen Xi brought the cage drawer in, Xia Mei said to her: "Spread this bamboo leaf inside, don't leave a gap." This kind of big bamboo leaf is used to steam steamed buns and steamed buns, but it is the best to use! ”
Wen Xi did so, carefully covering each layer of cage drawers.
Then put the cage drawer on the pot, and when the water in the pot boils, put the moon cakes into it one by one, without a distance of two fingers.
Xia Mei couldn't bear to look back, she was afraid that she would regret it.
Really, she is so thunderous that she can't accept it in her heart.
I kept telling myself in my heart, this is not a moon cake, this is not a moon cake, it is a bun! It is a steamed bun with a special shape!
When I think about it, it's really much better!
Soon, the two-layer cage drawer was full, but fortunately they made small ones, so that they could finish steaming again.
Xia Mei still kept wrapping it in her hand, only the last bit of bean paste filling was left, and it was okay to wrap it up.
This moon cake is estimated to be steamed for less than two quarters of an hour, so Wen Xi and Yunni pay attention to the time, and Xia Mei began to be busy with other dishes.
After an hour of busy work, finally, all the dishes were ready.
Xia Mei took a food box that Wen Hao and the others brought back, packed some of each dish, and also packed ten moon cakes.
The mooncakes were steamed, and Xia Mei almost didn't laugh.
Originally, it was supposed to be a mooncake with a golden color and a delicate and small shape, but it was made white and chubby by her, and it was also drunk.
The word "month" is also extremely vague, not to mention lace, sure enough, it's a pity that Brother Chen specially made the mold.
No matter what, it's done, and Xia Mei doesn't have much to worry about, so it's just a psychological comfort.
"Wen Xi, send this food box to the next door, Yunni, help me put all kinds of dishes a little, let's put it in the yard, the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, or to our relatives, condolences!"
Yunni was stunned, and her eyes turned red.
Yes, she's doing well now, and it's time to tell her daddy.
A bench was placed in the courtyard as an altar, and Xia Mei led everyone to worship briefly in the courtyard.
In the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is indeed not in harmony with the rules to worship the relatives who have passed away, but Xia Mei said that she does not care too much about the world's eyes.
Xia Mei didn't care, and the other people present didn't have much of a concept, everyone was a half-grown child, and they didn't have a very deep-rooted concept of customs.
Xia Mei asked them to step forward one by one and knelt down and saluted.
When Wen Xi and Wen Hao's brothers and sisters saluted, Wen Xi was silent.
"Daddy, the child and his sister are doing well now, but one day, the child will definitely go back and avenge you!"
Wen Hao comforted his sister and said firmly in his heart-
