Chapter 199: Making Mooncakes and Giving Boxing Gifts

The next day, Liu Paner took Li Dabao and others to start exercising, but those boys were timid at first and didn't dare.

Liu Pan'er greeted, "Come, let's run together, I will teach you to practice martial arts, not only to strengthen your body, but also to protect yourself and the people you care about." ”

As soon as she heard this, Sister Mao'er also ran over, and the feeling of being bullied was too aggrieved, "Madam, I also practice." ”

"Okay!" Liu Paner took everyone to box, and there were also children in Jixiang Village who came to learn.

Liu Paner doesn't force it, as long as she is willing to come to learn, she can practice, she instructs.

The leopard sees the novelty, learns seriously, and feels that it is too late to see each other. If you had learned from your wife earlier, you would have been able to take charge of yourself now.

Through martial arts training, most of the people in the village got to know the children brought by the leopard and the second dog.

After eating, Liu Pan'er instructed the leopard, "You go to our field, look at the tomatoes and peppers that our family keeps in the shed, don't be stolen." When it comes to next year's harvest for our family, we must be careful and careful. ”

The leopard responded, "Madame, don't worry, I will take a good look at it, and no one will be allowed to touch our family's seeds." ”

"Okay, let's go." Liu Pan'er instructed, "Ergouzi stay at home and clean up the new house with me." Don't worry about those kids, I'm not going to let them do the heavy lifting, just let them do what they can. ”

The leopard thanks, "Thank you, ma'am." ”

The leopard carried the basket on his back and went to the field with a sickle.

The world is impermanent, and the large intestine encloses the small intestine.

The day before yesterday I came to steal tomatoes and peppers, but now I have to take care of them.

However, the leopard is very satisfied with his current life and cherishes it.

The craftsmen have already built the house, cleaned the inside, lit the green pine branches and smoked them, ventilated them, and accelerated the air drying.

However, in the delicate places, Liu Paner still needs to take her family to start cleaning up everywhere.

Liu Paner began to arrange, and she and her sister-in-law lived in the main courtyard with six children. There are two other large yards, one for dyeing and the other for tanning rabbit skins.

The leopard and the second dog live with eight children in two partial courtyards, separated from the male and female.

Sister Mao'er took her three younger sisters, washing clothes and cooking, and rushing to work.

Here, Liu Pan'er had just cleaned up inside and out, and there were several carriages outside the door, with all kinds of furniture on them.

The second dog ran over, "Madam, Steward Liu of the county order family has sent you furniture, and he is waiting at the door!" ”

Liu Paner was about to go to Carpenter Li, and asked Carpenter Li to come here to measure the size and prepare to make furniture. Unexpectedly, Liu County Ling actually sent someone to send it.

Liu Paner was happy in her heart and wanted to do something to repay Liu County.

Liu Pan'er thought as she walked, opened the door, saw Steward Liu, and greeted warmly, "Steward Liu, thank you so much for your hard work." Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu took care of me and knew that my house lacked furniture, so they specially sent furniture over. ”

Steward Liu smiled, "Mrs. Derui, our lord and lady have always admired it. A little heart, not respect. The house is all cleaned up, right? Can you move in? ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Okay, I'm done." ”

A total of six cars of furniture, jujube red, steady and festive.

There is a two-zhang desk, with a table of eight immortals underneath, chairs on both sides of the table, and two rows of chairs on both sides of the room. There are also two round tables and round stools, as well as various large cabinets and small cabinets.

Under the command of Steward Liu, they were placed neatly one by one.

The originally empty house, with furniture, suddenly became homely.

For lunch, Liu and Liu Paner made a table of dishes to entertain Steward Liu and the servants who came to deliver the goods, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Liu Paner personally wrote a post, and also painted Seocho with paint, which is her special post for Liu Paner, writing that she will visit tomorrow and wish a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

Steward Liu got two taels of silver as a reward, took the post, and took people away.

After the others left, Liu took Liu Pan'er to the house to take a look, and praised him, "Brother and sister, these furniture are really good, much better than Carpenter Li's." ”

Liu Pan'er chuckled, "Although this is not a good wood, it can be regarded as medium." Li carpenter's craftsmanship is good, but the wood used is average, so the things he makes are not as good as these. ”

Liu Shi looked at it and turned his head to look at Liu Pan'er, "Brother and sister, tomorrow you will visit the county commander's house and thank them for sending us furniture." It's just that we come to the door, we can't be empty-handed! It coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we have to give a decent gift. ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, already thinking of it, "Don't worry, I've already made a decision in the county seat." At home, I plan to make several more flavors of mooncakes. ”

Liu thought of the strange oven that Liu Pan'er made some time ago, "Do you use the weird-looking stove you made before?" ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Yes, red bean mung bean, it was soaked last night, and now it can be made into red bean paste and mung bean paste." Dabao, go to your carpenter's grandfather's house and bring me the mooncake mold and the box of mooncakes I ordered. ”

"Hey, got it." Li Dabao responded, no longer continued to look at the furniture, and went to help his mother get things.

Liu Paner had long wanted to take advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to give gifts to the Gu family in the county seat, the county order Liu family, and Mrs. Wu in the Wu family's grain shop.

People come and go, and when there are more contacts, the more people will be deeper.

Liu Paner is ready to make Cantonese moon cakes, the materials are ready, and they can be made this afternoon.

Li Dabao took the things back, put them on the table, then took out the moon cake mold, and asked curiously: "Mother, aren't moon cakes as big as the moon?" Why are the mooncakes you make so small and how to do it? ”

I heard that the current moon cake is very simple, it is a sugar cake with a little sugar, a little thinner and larger than the wedding cake, like a plate.

If you make moon cakes like that, it's not new at all, so Liu Paner is ready to make a new one.

There are common round ones as well as petal-shaped ones.

Liu Paner carefully inspected the moon cake mold and thought it was good, "The moon cakes I want to make are the same as the current ones, so they are not novel." Since it is a gift, it is a heart, and of course it must be novel. You wait, you'll know in a moment. ”

Sift the flour, pour in the converted syrup, vegetable oil, no peanut oil, temporarily use soybean oil, stir well, mix into a dough, roll into a round strip and cover the porcelain basin, and leave for an hour.

After that, adjust the filling, red bean paste, mung bean paste, and date paste. I originally wanted to get egg yolks, but the salted duck eggs I bought, I don't know why, there was always a smelly smell.

When such egg yolks are added to mooncakes, it is absolutely unpalatable.

So Liu Paner brought out the long-lasting five-kernel filling from her previous life. There were no peanuts in the five-kernel filling, and Liu Paner replaced them with fried green peas.

Wait until all the fillings are done and the mooncake crust is ready.

Liu watched curiously as Liu Paner pinched into a dough, about half the size of an egg, into a round and slippery dough, put it in the palm of his hand and pressed it into a dough, and then began to wrap the bean paste filling inside, formed a dough, dipped some flour on the outside, and then put it into a moon cake grinder and pressed it.

The moon cake grinder knocked it in turn, and a round moon cake with the mung bean paste moon cake with the moon flower pattern on it was done.
