With the arrival of the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the villagers began to get busy. In China, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a very important festival and is also known as the Reunion Festival. On this day, maybe the wanderers outside will also rush back to have dinner with their families, worship the moon god, and enjoy moon cakes together.

In the past, children also liked this festival because they could eat mooncakes that were only available once a year. This night, you can also play very late, unlike usual, as soon as nine o'clock passes, the family rushes to bed.

"Really do it yourself? The ones you make yourself are definitely not as delicious as the ones you bought. The second aunt was a little worried, she hadn't made mooncakes by herself for many years.

In the countryside, mooncakes are not as expensive as those sold outside, and they are made by masters in their own towns. Generally, it is a five-kernel mooncake, and the material is relatively simple. The packaging is even simpler, just wrapping five mooncakes in red paper. There are more than ten yuan in a tube, which is about the same price as a mooncake outside. Therefore, it is now rare in rural areas to make their own mooncakes.

But this does not mean that it has not been done, and the cake molds for making moon cakes in the village are still there. Chu Jiaqiang guessed that it should be dug out of a common wooden board, and in the middle was a concave shape of a moon cake, stuffing raw materials into it, and then slapping it on the tabletop, which was very easy.

In the past two days, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Chu Shengmin was going out to buy moon cakes. But I don't know who revealed the news, saying that the village used to make its own mooncakes, and many tourists suggested doing it themselves and having enough food and clothing. Even the old village chief is hesitant this year, whether he really wants to be the same as before. Everyone in the village does it together.

"It's just that it's more hygienic to do it yourself. The fact that the food used to be not so delicious is actually due to the lack of delicious ingredients. This year, everyone in the village is not short of money, and they can use some good ingredients, but I don't believe that there is no delicious food made outside. "Zhou Furong doesn't plan to go back this Mid-Autumn Festival, so he simply asked his family to come here.

Nowadays, many tourists are out to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival or even the New Year, so there is nothing wrong with this behavior. Or rather. It's also good to get outside and feel the festive atmosphere elsewhere and see how the festival is celebrated elsewhere.

"Let's take a look at the village elder's decision first! If the village doesn't do it uniformly, then let's do it ourselves! Chu Shengmin said.

He thought that there were so many people in his family now, and it was not difficult to make his own mooncakes. Before. It's the trouble of making moon cakes by yourself, so I didn't continue to do it myself.

It didn't take long for the old village chief to spread the news that this year's collective mooncakes were made, so that everyone who was free went to help. The raw material for making moon cakes is the financial contribution of the village, and everyone only needs to contribute. When the time comes, take the moon cakes according to the head.

You don't have to pay for it yourself. Naturally, the villagers were even more speechless, and each family squeezed out one or two spare manpower to help, hoping to make mooncakes before tonight, and tomorrow would be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Naturally, those tourists also ran to join in the fun. I also want to make moon cakes with my own hands, which may taste more delicious, just like the last Dragon Boat Festival. Many tourists didn't go out to play that day, so they helped make zongzi at the host's house.

"Strong family. This time the honey was taken from you, how much should I give. The village won't be left to blame. The old village chief said to Chu Jiaqiang.

One of the ingredients used to make mooncakes is bee syrup. In addition, flour, peanuts, sesame, peach kernels, winter melon sugar, etc. have already been prepared by several villages in Chujiacheng.

"It's okay, the honey comes out naturally. You don't want fatty pork, right? Just put more peanut oil on it. Chu Jiaqiang said. I used to eat five-kernel mooncakes, and the most annoying thing was the fat pork inside, which was a bit similar to winter melon candy, which caused him to eat it as winter melon candy several times.

The old village chief and the others smiled, it was not the first time they had heard this suggestion today. It was all suggested by the young people in the village, and they also understood that the child really didn't like the fatty pork inside. But the more traditional one is to put fat pork inside, which can increase the fat of the moon cakes, and the baked moon cakes will not be dry.

"Mooncakes are also put in pork? No way? Chen Wu and the others immediately felt the novelty, meat buns are made of meat, that is a matter of course, moon cakes also need pork, it is the first time I have heard of it.

"Hehe, life was not as good as it is now, and it is already very good to have pork." The old village chief explained.

These words resonated with the old people in the house, and they all spoke about their hard days in the past, and a group of young people secretly said that they might not be able to eat during the holidays.

"In the past, moon cakes were called palace cakes, and the people ate them very simply, and only the palace was rich in the deliciousness of carefully selected materials." Hong Lao said to everyone.

The custom of eating moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival appeared in the Tang Dynasty. During the Northern Song Dynasty, this kind of cake was called "palace cake", which was popular in the court, but also spread to the people, and was commonly known as "small cake" and "moon group" at that time. Later, it evolved into a circle, which means reunion and beauty.

Legend has it that in ancient times, the emperor had a ritual system of sacrificing the day in spring and the moon in autumn. In the folk, every Mid-Autumn Festival in August, there is also the custom of worshipping the moon or worshipping the moon. "August 15 is full, Mid-Autumn Festival moon cakes are fragrant and sweet", this famous proverb shows the custom of urban and rural people eating on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Moon cakes were originally used as sacrifices to the moon god, and later people gradually took the Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation and moon cake tasting as a symbol of family reunion, and slowly, moon cakes became holiday gifts.

"What used to bake mooncakes in the village? Can it still be used? Why don't we go out and get some back from the oven? Li Quan and the others asked. They don't know what kind of moon cakes are used to bake moon cakes in rural areas and ancient times, but they have heard that moon cakes are generally baked in ovens.

The old village chief thought that it was not only the people in his own village who ate it now, but also that the previous baking plate was not very good, and it was easy to burn, which not only affected the taste, but also did not look good, so he nodded and asked these young people to quickly prepare the utensils.

In this way, everyone began to divide and cooperate. Li Quan immediately contacted the outside and asked people to send a batch of ovens in as quickly as possible. Chu Jiaqiang and others also went over to help rub the flour, which was manual work, and it was the most suitable for men to do it. The women use molds to make mooncakes, and the experienced ones check the last baking procedure.

People from the Institute of Chinese Medicine Revival and the Research Institute also came to help, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

The person on the other side of the cake frowned and shouted to the person making the mooncake: "Hey! Don't mess around! For your own sake, seven or eight out of ten mooncakes are exposed, please! ”

When those tourists and others saw it, they were embarrassed and began to take it seriously. Just now, they did make mooncakes with a playful mentality.
