After Cui Yunniang was taken in by Cui'er, she stayed in the old courtyard of the Lian family, but because she was still in confinement, Cui'er didn't let her work in the field, which didn't help the Lian family's work.

Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's hard work and was very impatient, but because Cui'er insisted that there was no way, he thought of an idea and asked the daughter-in-law of a family surnamed Mu to help from home.

This family surnamed Mu, the husband and wife are in their thirties, with a pair of children about ten years old in the mountains to beg for a living, that husband is also a good hunting hand in the mountains, because of his craft, the family is not bad on weekdays, but two months ago, this man surnamed Mu accidentally fell down when he went up the mountain, broke his waist, spent a lot of money on treatment, and the family was poor and almost couldn't open the pot.

Lian Qingshan looked at the pity of the person surnamed Mu, so he gave Sister-in-law Mu some money, and asked Sister-in-law Mu to help Cui'er work, and because she had given birth and raised, it was more convenient to take care of Yunniang, but it relieved Cui'er of a lot of burden.

Yun Niang was grateful to Cui'er for taking her in, although she was stopped by Cui'er because of her confinement, she didn't want to go, she didn't want to do anything, she sat on the kang when she was fine, and found Cui'er's old clothes or fabric to make diapers for his son, cut and sew them, and make some toys for the big girl and Xiaohu, but it made Cui'er feel her heart.

Cui'er because of the help of this sister-in-law Mu, life is extremely easy, the chickens and pigs at home don't have to be fed by themselves, every day even the green mountains go up the mountain to work in the mountains and forests, Cui'er takes the wooden sister-in-law to work at home, the days go by day by day, and it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival in a blink of an eye.

That night, Cui'er was sitting bored at home, looking at the gradually rounding moon that had just risen outside, and suddenly remembered that she should make mooncakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival. "Qingshan, do we have the habit of making moon cakes?"

"Mooncakes?" Even Qingshan thought about it after listening to Cui'er's question, "I haven't come back in recent years, so I haven't heard much about it." But I ate it when I was a child, and I thought that the sugar-filled mooncakes made by my mother were the best thing in the world. Lian Qingshan sat beside Cui'er, looked at the moon in the sky, and said with some sadness.

Lian Qingshan's family was very poor when he was a child, and his mother's frugal food was able to give him and his younger brother a few pieces of moon cakes to eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Aoyama...... My mother will watch us from the sky, and she sees that our life is prosperous now. Delighted for sure. Cui'er looked at Lian Qingshan's wilting appearance, and couldn't help but lean on Lian Qingshan's shoulder and said to him.

"Our family will be fine." Cui'er pulled Lian Qingshan's hand and put it on her lower abdomen, although it was still flat, but this action made Lian Qingshan's somewhat depressed mood instantly healed.

"yes. Our family will be fine, and my mother will definitely be happy when she watches it from the sky. Lian Qingshan's hand gently covered Cui'er's stomach, with a smirk.

"Qingshan, let's make some moon cakes." Cui'er watched Lian Qingshan's mood improve, and asked curiously, "When my mother made moon cakes before." What kind of mold is used? Wood or iron? ”

"It's a mold of wood, my father made it for her when she was a child, and my mother used that mold to make moon cakes for us to eat every year, but I went out to be a soldier for so many years, and I don't know where to throw this moon cake mold." Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's excited appearance and couldn't help but say. While using his hand to draw the shape of a mooncake mold.

"Qingshan, can you also carve some mooncake molds for me?" Cui'er thought of the various shapes of mooncakes in her previous life, and her mood soared, and her eyes were shining and she pulled Lian Qingshan's sleeve, as if she was a child who wanted candy.

Cui'er's rare little daughter look. Let Lian Qingshan's heart soften like a puddle of water, and he can't wait to agree to all of Cui'er's requests, so that her life is happy and without any sorrow, and the small moon cake mold is naturally not a problem, "What do you want, tell me, I'll make it for you." ”

"Well, Aoyama, you're the best!" Cui'er heard Lian Qingshan's agreement, excitedly hugged Lian Qingshan's arm, and happily rubbed her cheek on his shoulder, as if it was a kitten, she smiled while saying what she wanted, round, square, diamond-shaped.

After hearing this, Lian Qingshan nodded again and again, and promised Cui'er to help her do it early tomorrow morning.

Early the next morning, after Lian Qingshan helped Cui'er clean up his house, he took a piece of hardwood, a small hammer and a small chisel, and began to carve it according to what Cui'er said, while Cui'er was going around in the kitchen and began to prepare the fillings for moon cakes.

The most basic jujube paste and red beans are naturally indispensable, and Cui'er heard Lian Qingshan say that her mother-in-law made moon cakes with white sugar filling, so she was also ready to make a white sugar filling, and the wild roses on the hillside are blooming brightly, and the fresh roses are also good, and then there are the most traditional five kernels and lotus paste...... The big girl and Xiaohu were already very happy when they heard that their mother was going to make moon cakes, and they heard that there were so many kinds, and they were even more happy to see their teeth and eyes.

Because of the experience of her previous life, just the moon cake filling that can be made from local materials, Cui'er has come up with more than a dozen kinds, and the work at home has a sister-in-law to help do, Cui'er herself can spare a lot of time to ponder, pick jujube to make jujube paste today, toss and toss rose stuffing tomorrow, the weather is gradually getting cooler, but I don't worry about these fillings going bad at all.

Three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the big girl and the little tiger couldn't help it, and followed Cui'er's ass to make moon cakes with Cui'er.

Making moon cakes, in fact, is not difficult, is to prepare moon cake crust and filling and moon cake molds, moon cake molds even Qingshan helped Cui'er carve six, the size is similar but the shape is different, each is very delicate, so that Cui'er can't put it down.

Cui'er took out the jujube paste, red bean paste, and rose filling she had prepared before, these are the three kinds of fillings, all of which are sweet flavors, and women and children like them the most.

There is also a five-kernel filling, which is not very sweet. Men and women of all ages can eat peanuts, walnuts, and sesame seeds bought from the town, and home-grown melon seeds and sweet almonds peeled from apricots picked from the mountains are stir-fried and fragrant, and placed in a stone mortar. It is made by mashing it with a stone pestle, and adding a little sugar and salt to it, and it smells fragrant.

For the remaining two, Cui'er made a white sugar filling, which was also filled with glutinous rice flour and sesame seeds, which was specially made to commemorate her mother-in-law who she had never met.

In the last one, Cui'er plans to make salty mooncakes, marinate them with fresh pork, fry them in a pot, cut them into small pieces, add fried glutinous rice flour and fresh corn kernels that have been boiled and peeled off, to make fresh meat-flavored mooncakes.

After Cui'er prepared the filling. I made a large dough of noodles to make the mooncake crust. The fillings and dough of the moon cakes are relatively dry, so that when the moon cakes are wrapped, they can be formed into a ball, and when the moon cakes are beaten with a mold. Patterns can stay long-lasting.

Cui'er asked Lian Qingshan, Da Niu and Xiaohu to wash their hands, and after scrubbing the kang table, they put the moon cake crust and moon cake filling all on the table. Follow behind Cui'er to help.

Cui'er smiled and neatly divided the dough in her hand into dough of the same size, and gave one to each of the big girl and Xiaohu, while Lian Qingshan was responsible for dividing the filling into balls the size of ordinary walnuts, so that Cui'er could wrap moon cakes later.

"Big girl, little tiger, come and learn from your mother." Cui'er held a ball of noodles in her hand. With both hands together, press the dough into a palm-sized dough, and then put a ball of bean paste filling in the dough, and work together with both hands to top the dough, no need to pinch pleats or shape. It took a while to wrap the filling with dough.

"Wow, how did my mother get it?" When the big girl saw Cui'er's neat technique, she screamed excitedly, picked up the moon cakes wrapped by Cui'er, and could only see the white dough, and the filling in it was not visible at all, "Mother, you are so amazing, teach me to teach me!" ”

Xiaohu was playing happily with a ball of noodles in his hand, he didn't see Cui'er wrapping moon cakes, and when he heard his sister screaming, Xiaohu raised his head suspiciously, and looked at his mother and sister with a blank face.

Cui'er looked at the excited appearance of the big girl, and then looked at the cute appearance of the little tiger in a daze, smiled and didn't speak, picked up a ball of noodles again, pressed it, put the stuffing, and balled it up...... In one go, the girl's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but take the stuffing and follow along.

Lian Qingshan's family sat around the table to wrap moon cakes, Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's gentle and loving, the big girl was lively and studious, and Xiaohu was innocent and cute, only feeling warm and warm in his heart, with a slight excitement and sourness, his hands were constantly busy.

Cui'er wraps moon cakes are particular, a total of six molds and six fillings, and the dough of the moon cake is divided into six parts, a dough wrap with the same filling, and then use a mold to beat out, in this way, the number of moon cakes played out of each flavor is equal, and the filling made by the same mold is the same.

Cui'er saw that the big girl was already able to wrap the moon cakes, so she smiled and picked up a moon cake ball that had been wrapped, picked up the mold corresponding to the moon cake ball, and smiled mysteriously at the big girl and the little tiger, "Big girl, little tiger, come, let's try to play moon cakes!" ”

As she spoke, Cui'er flattened the moon cake ball in her hand slightly, then sprinkled a layer of floating surface on the surface of the moon cake ball, put the moon cake ball upside down into the mold, gently compacted it with her hands on the surface of the mold, and then smiled mysteriously at the big girl and Xiaohu, and snapped the moon cake mold upside down on the kang table.

The snapping sound of the moon cake mold scared the big girl and the little tiger, and when the moon cake mold was removed by Cui'er, the round dough just now instantly became a beautiful moon cake with patterns! The big girl and the little tiger looked at the mooncake that had just been formed, with a miracle on their faces.

"Wow, mother, you're amazing!" The big girl and the little tiger rushed to Cui'er together, asking Cui'er to make mooncakes again.
