Chapter 263: Do You Miss Home
The two of them were talking here, and a few children were running wildly in the front yard and backyard, and the rhubarb was annoying, but it was A, B, C, and D who were scurrying behind them.
Dabao sat next to Ji Yu, did not leave the stool, and waited for Hu Dacheng and them to play the eagle and catch the chicken taught by Ji Yu, but stared at it for a while.
Ji Yu asked him to join in, and it was fun when there were many people.
He shook his head and said childishly.
Ji Yu wanted to beat him angrily.
After a while, Hu Dacheng and the others were tired of playing, and they ran over sweating profusely to eat in the moon group.
Da Zhou's moon cakes, on the whole, are quite similar to later generations, but they are a little thinner and not so delicate.
At this time, there is already a mold for making moon cakes, and more wood with hard and fine textures such as jujube wood and pear wood is used, and one or several grooves are dug on it first, and then various exquisite patterns are carved at the bottom of the grooves, and they can be put into use if they are polished and smooth.
When making moon cakes, you only need to wrap the prepared filling into the mixed dough, then put the dough into the mold to press and set, and then turn the mold over, turn the circle and beat the periphery evenly until the moon cake becomes dense, and then demold, and a moon cake printed with a specific pattern is formed.
In general, it saves time and effort, and that's it, the style of moon cakes can only depend on the moon cake mold.
A good moon cake mold requires a craftsman to carve it with a knife, and the pattern is inevitably limited, generally it is a hibiscus flower, a tangled branch flower, a red double happiness, Fu Lu Shou, or a rabbit, a double fish, a unicorn and other auspicious patterns.
There is also a type of mooncake that does not require molds, much like mille-feuille shortbread.
The decorative patterns of this kind of moon cake are painted with paint, which is relatively much richer, and there are all kinds of paintings, such as figures, landscapes, flowers and plants, birds and beasts, etc., all-inclusive.
But the most common ones are Wu Gang cutting Gui, Chang'e running to the moon, Jade Rabbit pounding medicine, and ladies worshipping the moon.
It's interesting to look at, but the pattern is easy to bake, and when you eat it, you have to peel off the crispy shell with paint stuck to it.
These two kinds of mooncakes don't taste very good.
Ji Yu herself doesn't like to eat moon cakes very much, she has thought about all kinds of food snacks, but there are no moon cakes, otherwise she would have made it herself this time.
But the widow Xie said that it is not good to eat the moon group during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Ji Yu couldn't do it, so she shared a piece of jujube paste stuffing with Dabao, and the big one was returned to Dabao.
Dabao had a bitter face, Ji Yu pretended not to see it, and drank two glasses of water before barely swallowing his piece.
After eating moon cakes, the Mid-Autumn Festival activities are almost over.
Widow Xie is worried about the old lady at home, Xiao An Xiaohua is young and easy to get sleepy, so she helped Ji Yu pack up her things, and the family went back.
Dabao was also a little sleepy, leaning on Ji Yu, and his little head was getting little by little.
Ji Yu wiped his face and washed his feet without waking anyone up, hugged him to the kang, and fell asleep as soon as he put the quilt on.
Ji Yu looked at Dabao's sleeping face, her heart was very soft and warm.
Dabao has lived with her since last year, but it seems that it is only recently that he really considers this house his home.
In the past, as long as Ji Yu moved, Dabao would wake up immediately even if he slept and died.
Now the situation is much better, as long as Ji Yu is not away for too long, he can still sleep peacefully.
Ji Yu pondered, it was time to put the room division plan on the agenda again.
After the beginning of spring, she tried several times, but never succeeded.
The main thing is to blame her for her lack of position, as soon as Dabao put on an expression of wanting to cry or not, Ji Yu couldn't harden her heart.
But it's six years old, and then it's seven years old......
I made up my mind that this time I couldn't shake it no matter what, and I wanted to carry out the ruthlessness to the end.
When everything was silent, Ji Yu wrapped a few mooncakes and went out of the courtyard.
The homeless man did not sleep, but sat alone at the door of the hall, looking up at the moon, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ji Yu entered the courtyard and sat down next to the homeless man.
The homeless man's gaze shifted from the moon in the sky to the person in front of him.
I didn't show any surprise at her arrival at this time, but I should still be a little surprised in my heart

It's weird, after all, I've only come to deliver dinner before.
Ji Yu put the basket on the ground, uncovered the cloth, took a piece of moon cake and handed it to him.
"Aunt Xie said that it is difficult to complete the Mid-Autumn Festival without eating the moon group, and there are just a few pieces left that cannot be eaten, so I will send them to you to taste."
The homeless man lowered his eyes to look at the thin, round thing, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to take it.
Under Ji Yu's scorching gaze, she handed it to her mouth and took a bite.
"How?"
Ji Yu stared at him with bright eyes.
"Don't you think it tastes weird? Hahaha...... To tell you the truth, I don't ...... Loved ...... so much."
Ji Yu's laughter gradually became smaller, and she warned herself for the hundredth time in her heart that she would never joke with the homeless man again in the future, she would accidentally become a cold joke, and she was the only one who was cold.
The homeless man ate moon cakes in silence, and Ji Yu looked at the moon with her cheeks.
It is said that the moon is 15 and 16 round, but the moon is really big tonight.
The sky is as clear as water, the moon is as bright as a mirror, and the silver light of the heavenly river is like a flash, overturning the clear light into the world, and the black night that shines directly is like white.
She had only seen this kind of big moon when she was very young.
There is no dazzle of daylight or the severity of night, in between, it is gentle, soothing, and can easily pluck the dusty string in the depths of the heart, making a humming of grievance and nostalgia.
"When I was a child, it was this kind of big moon land, with a group of friends, in the open space in front of my house, playing with rubber bands and smashing sandbags...... Play late, very late.
The strange thing is that the deeper the night, the brighter the moon, you can clearly see the flicking pigtails reflected on the ground and jump, and you can also see every smiling face around you......
No one is willing to go back, but they always have to go back. The family is asleep, and they will inevitably be scolded, but the next day they will still gather in the same place......"
"Another time, my friend called me to ...... Well, it's just going to a place and saying that it's dawning outside, why can't you get up yet? I got up in a daze and went on the road with them, and it took two quarters of an hour to get to that place, you know? At first, we were all about fighting, and then the more we went, the more we felt that something was wrong.
It's so bright, why can't you see the sun? It's dawn, why hasn't the moon gone down yet? And, why is it getting darker?
When we rushed to the place in a panic, the door was still locked, we banged on the door, and the doorkeeper was woken up, wearing clothes and scolding, saying that he was reincarnated in the middle of the night!
After he finished scolding, he went back to sleep and refused to open the door for us. It was then that we felt scared, and we crouched in a row in the corner and watched as the sky darkened and the sun rose...... Thinking about it later, isn't it all the moon's fault? ”
"After that, I didn't look at the moon much...... Because I grew up. Because the house is very high, the haze is very heavy, and the moon is obscured. It is also because when you look at the moon, you will think of your former home and family...... Homesick? ”
Coldly, Ji Yu asked such a sentence.
It's a fun film to see how amazing it is: rcicrK6yjr69lWhrkZNiaGOVXmpnnZbClauG4Jytrg
